COMPLAINTS

 

No matter how good our intentions and efforts are, there are occasions when it is necessary to deal with a complaint, or even to make one. Complaints may be necessary for many reasons such as:

• wrong goods received

• poor service

• unsatisfactory quality of goods

• late delivery

• damaged goods

• prices not as agreed

Making a complaint

When you have a genuine complaint you will feel angry, but you must show restraint in your letter, if only because the supplier may not be to blame. The following points need to be considered:

(a) Do not delay as this will weaken your position and the supplier may have difficulty in investigating the cause.

(b) Do not assume that the supplier is automatically to blame; they may have a perfectly good defence.

(c) Confine your complaint to a statement of the facts, followed by either an enquiry as to what the supplier proposes to do about it, or a suggestion of how the matter can be rectified.

(d) Avoid rudeness; this would create ill-feeling and cause the supplier to be unwilling to resolve matters.

Dealing with a complaint

Most suppliers naturally wish to hear if customers have cause to complain. This is better than custom being lost and trade taken elsewhere. It also provides an opportunity to investigate, to explain, and to put things right. In this way goodwill may be preserved. Receiving such complaints may also suggest ways in which the supplier's products or services could be improved. When dealing with dissatisfied customers remember the following rules:

(a) It is often said that the customer is always right.This may not always be the case but it is sound practice to assume that the customer may be right.

(b) Acknowledge a complaint promptly. If you are unable to reply fully, explain that it is being investigated and a full reply will be sent later.

(c) If the complaint is unreasonable, point this out politely and in a way that will not offend.

(d) If you are to blame, admit it readily, express regret and promise to put matters right.

(e) Never blame any of your staff; in the end you are responsible for their actions.

(f) Thank the customer for informing you about the matter.
