Afterpay Complaints Policy - Australia
How can we help?
If you have a complaint, we will deal with your complaint in a fair, open and transparent manner and work to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible.
In particular:
1. We aim to acknowledge all complaints within 1 business day or as soon as reasonably practicable;
2. We aim to resolve your complaint within 5 business days. If your complaint takes longer to resolve, we will provide you with an initial response within 10 business days.
3. We aim to resolve all complaints within 21 days; and
4. If we can't resolve your complaint within 21 days, we will notify you as soon as possible of the reason for the delay and let you know when we expect to be able to resolve your complaint.
5. When we have completed our investigation of your complaint, we will provide you with a written response which will include the outcome of our investigation, your right to take your complaint to AFCA and AFCA’s contact details.
6. There may however be some circumstances where (unless otherwise required to do so) we will not provide a written response to you because we have either:
(a) resolved the complaint to your satisfaction within 5 business days; or
(b) given you an appropriate explanation and / or apology and there are no further actions we can take to reasonably address the complaint.
