Our complaints process
When we receive your complaint, we'll do our best to resolve the issue or issues when we first contact you. If we can't resolve the matter then, it will be escalated within our internal complaints handling process.
- First level resolution Our frontline staff and subject matter experts are dedicated to providing you with a response
- Escalated level If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your complaint you have the option to have your complaint referred to our Dispute Resolution Advisory Team
- Remain dissatisfied If you are still dissatisfied after working with the Dispute Resolution Advisory team, you may escalate externally to the Energy and Water Ombudsman Queensland.
We strive to respond to your complaints within 2 business days of receipt and to do everything within our power to resolve the complaint within 10 business days of receipt of the complaint. Should resolution not be possible in this timeframe, we will seek a mutually agreeable revised resolution date with you.
If, after we provide a resolution for you, you are not satisfied that the outcome is equitable or that we have not done everything in our power to deliver a fair outcome, you may request escalation of the matter to our internal Dispute Resolution Advisory Team. This team will investigate the matter further and propose possible alternative options.
