A valid complaint could be any negative customer experience, either real or perceived, relating to
A complaint is deemed to be valid if:
A complaint is different from an Incident or Request and can be raised in addition to these, if the customer feels they have not been treated fairly or promptly.
If a product breaks, the customer should not automatically register a complaint as this would not be a valid complaint, instead they should register an Incident. They can, however, raise a complaint if the product repeatedly breaks with the same symptoms and a Problem has not been raised and a replacement product not requested. In this case the Complaint should lead to a Problem being raised if other customers are likely to experience the same issues. Otherwise an Incident should be raised to replace the product.
The following are categories used for logging a complaint:
David Brophy or Jason Jones for Development or Support complaints
David Brophy or Paul Lofthouse for Business complaints
In addition to this list, if the complaint is against an employee, it may be deemed beneficial by one of the handlers above, to hand the complaint over to the employee that the complaint is against for conclusion with the customer. This is usually only the case when the employee is capable of portraying a professional attitude and willing to apologize for any error or misunderstanding on their part, in order to bring the complaint to a close.
Acceptable communication mediums relating to complaint handling are Face to face, Telephone and Email only.
Information to be captured includes:

Third Parties
If the complaint is against a third party which we do not represent to the client, then the customer should contact the third party and follow their complaints process.
Clients
If the complaint is against the client or something the client is responsible for then the customer should be advised to seek advice internally and any related complaints should be closed.
SLAs and Reporting
All complaints are exempt from contractual SLA, unless otherwise documented in the contract with the client, and will be resolved under best endeavors, however, complaint handlers should aim to resolve and closed complaints within 3 months.
