Internal Complaints Procedure

Here at Paul Fox Estate Agents, we are committed to providing a professional service to all of our clients and customers. When something goes wrong, we need you to tell us about it. This will help us to improve our standards.

If you have a complaint, please put it in writing, including as much details as possible. We will then respond in line with the timeframes set out below. Your complaint should be sent to Mrs Hannah Fox, at 29-31 Oswald Road, Scunthorpe, DN15 7PN or hfox@paul-fox.com.

What will happen next?

  • We will send you a letter acknowledging receipt of your complaint within three working days of receiving it, enclosing a copy of the procedure
  • We will then investigate your complaint. We will review your file and speak to any members of our team who were involved. A formal written outcome of your investigation will be sent to you within 15 working days of sending the acknowledgement letter.
  • If, at this stage, you are still not satisfied, you should contact us again and we will arrange for a separate review to take place by a senior member of staff. Should you wish to escalate to this stage, then please write to Mr Paul Fox, Director, at 29-31 Oswald Road, Scunthorpe, DN15 7PN or pfox@paul-fox.com
