CCL is committed to providing a high standard of service to all members on every
occasion. Occasionally, however, we may not live up to your expectations.
If you have a complaint about any aspect of the service provided to you by CCL then
we would like to hear from you. You can contact us by telephone (currently we
operate a message service only) or in writing, by post, e-mail or fax. You usually
need to complain to us within 6 years of a problem happening. If you haven’t done
this we can’t usually investigate the complaint.

Your first point of contact should be with the CCL Customer Support Team who will
listen to your complaint and work with you to resolve it. CCL has established an
internal complaints procedure to make sure that your complaint is handled efficiently.
Contact details are provided at the end of this document.
CCL takes your comments seriously. They allow us to improve our service to you
and help us to improve our products and services to all our Account holders. If you
think that we could have served you better then please let us know.

2. Information you need to give us
In order to make sure that your complaint can be investigated and resolved as
quickly as possible, please make sure you give us the following information:
• Your name, address and account number
• A clear description of your concern or complaint,
• Tell us what you would like us to do to put it right,
• Copies of any relevant documents (for example emails sent by or to you)
• An email address and a daytime telephone number where we can contact you.
CCL will work with you to try to resolve your complaint immediately. We need to
understand exactly what the problem is – the more information you can give us the
better.

3. What CCL will do
If we have been able to resolve your complaint, we will, within 3 working days, send
you a Summary Resolution Communication (SRC) which will:
• Advise you that the complaint has been resolved.
• Advise you that, should you be dissatisfied with the resolution, you have right for up
to 6 months after the notification, unless otherwise agreed, to refer this to the Cyprus
International Financial Services Association (CIFSA) details of which are outlined in
section 4 below.

Sometimes we won’t be able to resolve your complaint or concern immediately. If we
can’t and if we have not already contacted with our proposal for resolving it, we will:
Acknowledge immediately by email that we have spoken to you and that your
complaint has been passed on to the Complaints team, we will also let you know
who will handle your complaint, and how you can contact them. We will also make
available to you a copy of our complaints handling policy.

For standard complaints, such as service issues, you should either
3.1 Final Response Letter
(i) Expect a Final Response Letter (FRL) within 8 weeks of the complaint.
This letter will:
- Advise you if we have accepted your complaint and, where appropriate, are making
an offer of redress and or remedial action;
or
- We may offer redress and/or remedial action without accepting your complaint;
or
- We may reject your complaint and in doing so will provide you with our reasons for
this decision;
This FRL will also include:
• The website address of the CIFSA;
• Advise you that, if you remain dissatisfied with our response, you may now refer
your
complaint to the CIFSA:
and
• Advise you of our decision on whether we will waive the relevant time limits relating
to this Complaint if they impact on this complaint;
Or

3.2 Other Response Letter
(ii) If we cannot resolve this within that time period we will write an Other Response
Letter (ORL), to you advising;
• Why we are not in a position to make final response and give you an indication of
when we expect to be in such a position;
• Advise you that, if you are dissatisfied with this delay in providing a final response,
you may now refer your complaint to the CIFSA:
and
• the website address of the CIFSA;
• Advise you of our decision on whether we will waive the relevant time limits relating
to this complaint if they impact on this complaint.

3.3 Complaints relating to PSD or EMD
Should your complaint refer specifically to issues associated with the Payment
Services Directive (PSD) or the Electronic Money Directive (EMD) the following
timetable will refer.

• We expect to send you a final response to the complaint by no later than the end of
the 15th Business day after the day on which we received the complaint.
• If your complaint is complicated it could take longer to resolve. If this is the case we
will keep you informed of progress as we continue our investigations. In this
situation, we will send you a holding response by no later than the 15th Business day
after the day we received the complaint, which will clearly indicate the reasons for
the delaying answering the complaint, and we will clearly specify the deadline by
which we will send the final response. This final response will be no later than 35
Business days after the day on which we received the complaint.
• If you have been in communication with us by email on the matter, our final
response will be made by email unless you request a written confirmation.
• At this time we will also inform you of your rights to refer your complaint to the
CIFSA (see point 4).

CCL tries to resolve all complaints as quickly as possible, and to the satisfaction of
our members. If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your complaint then you
should get in touch directly with the person who has handled it. They will agree with
you what next steps can be taken.

4. Cyprus International Financial Services Association (CIFSA)
If you are still unhappy after receiving a Final Response from CCL then you can
request a review from the CIFSA. The Ministry of Finance has established the CIFSA
to perform independent reviews on any eligible complaints made by Account holders
which companies like CCL are unable to resolve to the consumer’s satisfaction.
CCL will inform you in the Final Response of your eligibility to refer your complaint to
the CIFSA. There is no specific time limit specified though we would reasonably
expect that you have no more than 6 months after you have received a written
communication from us to refer your complaint. This written communication may be
in the form of a Final Response Letter, Other Response Letter or Summary
Resolution Communication,

If you complain later than this the CIFSA may not be able to help unless:
• The delay is due to exceptional circumstances – such as serious illness or
bereavement occurring during the time in which you should have referred you
complaint
• You did not receive a valid final response from us
• We have agreed to remain involved after the 6 month limit.
• If you do not refer your complaint in time the CIFSA will not have our permission to
consider your complaint, but if the CIFSA believes there are exceptional
circumstances they will allow a delayed investigation.
The CIFSA may not be able to assist you if your complaint happened more than 6
years ago unless you weren’t aware you had a reason to complain at the time; or if
you complain more than 3 years after you had become aware that you had cause to
complain

The CIFSA Complaints Form which can be downloaded from
https://www.cifsa.org/complaint-submission-form/ must be completed in as much
detail as possible, and must be accompanied by all the relevant copies of
correspondence, notes and any other documentation which may be necessary for a
proper understanding of the case. Additional submissions after the initial complaint is
lodged will not be accepted. The paperwork should be submitted to:

By Post to:
CIFSA
PO Box 57041
4011 Limassol
marked “for the attention of the Complaints Department”.

Complaints will be acknowledged by CIFSA as soon as possible after receipt, and
will be entered into the CIFSA Complaints Register.
CIFSA will at the same time ensure that the member Firm involved is made aware of
the unresolved complaint, and will furnish it with copies of whatever additional
documentation may have been submitted at this stage.
CIFSA will ask the member Firm to appoint a representative from their Firm to
investigate the complaint. Notification of this appointment must have been provided
to CIFSA within 2 weeks of such a request.
CIFSA will in a reasonable timescale complete its investigation and advise the
parties of its findings once all relevant and requested documentation has been
obtained from the member firm. If the complaint has been routed through the ICCS
to CIFSA then a copy of the CIFSA report will be sent to the ICCS.
CIFSA may only consider complaints raised directly by a client of a member firm.
Should at any stage legal representation be engaged by any party CIFSA shall
immediately withdraw from any mediatory or investigatory role.
Note
It should be noted that whilst CIFSA strives to assist complainants and member
Firms to amicably resolve any complaints, it has no legal power to decide for either
party. CIFSA is only able to offer an opinion. In certain circumstances, CIFSA is able
only to offer its opinion to the regulator,and must advise the complainant to refer to
the regulator or to a legal representative should they wish to take the complaint
further.
