The next steps
MuchBetter will respond to your complaint in writing within 10 (ten) business days (you should receive a reference number once you submit it). In exceptional cases, due to reasons beyond MuchBetter’s control, we may send you a preliminary response indicating the reasons for the delay and the date when a final response from MuchBetter should be expected. Where MuchBetter fails to resolve a client’s complaint within the 10-day time frame, or where the client feels that the complaint was not handled appropriately, (including cases where the complaint was not properly identified as a complaint), the client has the right to file a complaint with Peoples Trust if they believe that we provide our services improperly or our operations breach customers’ rights or legitimate interests.
