How a financial complaint should progress

Send a clear complaint first and keep a copy of the final response or the date the complaint was made.

Financial complaint route

Complain to the firm first

Give account details, amounts, dates, evidence and the outcome requested.

Wait for a final response

Most financial firms have up to eight weeks to issue a final response to a complaint.

Escalate if unresolved

If unresolved after the final response or relevant deadline, consider the Financial Ombudsman Service if the issue is in scope.

Outcome request

What you can ask Chase UK to do

The strongest complaint letters state the practical result you want, not just what went wrong.

Refund Corrected account record Investigation review Written explanation Credit file correction Complaint escalation

Use this letter to raise a clear, well‑structured complaint with Chase UK about a banking issue. Explain what went wrong, how it affected you, and what you want Chase UK to do to put things right.

What this letter should achieve

  • Clearly describe the problem with your Chase UK account or service.
  • Present a simple timeline and evidence so Chase UK can investigate.
  • State the remedy you want (for example, a refund, fee reversal, account reinstatement, correction, apology, or explanation).
  • Start the formal complaints process and obtain a written final response.

Common issues people complain about

Complaints often fall into these themes:

  • Fees / charges dispute
  • Fraud / scam handling
  • Account closure / service issue
  • Complaint escalation

What to include

  • Your full name, address, and preferred contact details.
  • Relevant account or product information (e.g. sort code and account number; redact where appropriate for security).
  • A concise timeline of events with key dates.
  • The impact on you (financial loss, stress, service disruption) and any steps you have taken.
  • What you want Chase UK to do to resolve the issue and why this is fair.
  • Details of any prior contact with Chase UK about the matter, including dates and outcomes.

Evidence: Account/product details, key dates, statements, screenshots, reference numbers, and copies of prior correspondence.

Escalation and timeframes

Allow up to 8 weeks for a final response before considering escalation (typical UK complaints timeframe). If you are not satisfied with the outcome, or you do not receive a final response in time, you may be able to escalate your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) for eligible UK consumer complaints.

Retain copies of all correspondence and notes of any calls. If you escalate, you will need a clear summary of the issue, your evidence, and the firm’s final response (if provided).

Practical tips

  • Be factual, clear, and polite; focus on dates, amounts, and outcomes sought.
  • Attach copies (not originals) of supporting documents; redact sensitive data you do not need to share.
  • Ask for a written acknowledgement and a complaint reference number.
  • Send via a trackable or provable channel and keep proof of delivery.
  • If the matter is urgent (e.g. suspected fraud), contact Chase UK through its published channels immediately while submitting your written complaint.
  • Set a reasonable remedy and explain how you calculated any refund or redress you are asking for.
