How to make a complaint

We strive to provide positive customer service experiences and empathetic support. However, if you are unhappy with a decision, service, or other interaction with us, please let us know.

We take any complaint we receive seriously. We will acknowledge the receipt of a complaint and work with you to resolve it.

  1. How to notify us of a complaint

    We encourage complaints to be made in writing by emailing feedback@accuro.co.nz. Please attach any documentation that supports your complaint.

    If you prefer to call, you can freephone us at 0800 222 876 (Phone hours: 9am - 4pm, Monday - Friday). You will need to post or email any supporting documentation.

  2. Resolving your complaint: What happens next?

    We will acknowledge receipt of your complaint as soon as possible.

    If you email your complaint to us, we will acknowledge receipt of your complaint, within 5 business days of the date we receive it.

    If we are unable to resolve your complaint immediately, it will be escalated in the following order:

    • Frontline staff
    • Team Leader
    • Operations Manager (or equivalent Senior Manager)
    • Chief Operating Officer (or equivalent Executive Manager)

    We aim to resolve complaints within 10 business days. We may need to wait for information from third parties (e.g. Doctors) when we are considering your complaint, which may cause delays.

    If we can't resolve your complaint within 10 business days, we will contact you to talk through the next steps.

  3. The Insurance and Financial Services Ombudsman

    If your complaint has been fully investigated by us and you're not satisfied with the outcome, you can refer your complaint to the Insurance and Financial Services Ombudsman (IFSO) for review.

    The IFSO Scheme is a free, independent service which helps resolve disputes between financial service providers and their customers.
