Complaints Handling

Hilton-Baird Financial Solutions takes its responsibility as a commercial finance broker very seriously and is dedicated to providing exceptional client service.

Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and as a member of the National Association of Commercial Finance Brokers (NACFB) and associates of UK Finance, our complaints handling process follows guidelines from the FCA, NACFB, UK Finance, and the Financial Ombudsman Service accordingly, and can be viewed here.

It is possible to make formal complaints about any part of our service by telephone, post, e-mail, website, fax and face-to-face. Whichever method you choose, we will handle your complaint as soon as possible, typically within five working days. All complaints which are received will be escalated to management immediately, with customers updated on an ad-hoc basis as and when required, at least weekly, until a satisfactory resolution is reached.
