Our response

Once you’ve submitted a complaint, we'll aim to contact you within 24 hours. We’ll confirm that we’re looking into your complaint and when you can expect a response. We'll also give you a unique case number so we can find your record quickly.  

We’ll always contact you to provide our final response. We’ll explain what we’ve found, what we plan to do as a result, and why we made the decision.  The final outcome will be communicated in writing, (chat, email, or post). 

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) gives us a maximum number of days to issue a final response: 

If you are an eligible complainant, we intend to issue a final response within 15 business days after receiving your complaint. If something outside of our control causes a delay, the FCA gives us a maximum of 35 business days. 

Viva.com is a member of the Financial Ombudsman Service, which offers an independent review service. So, if you're still not satisfied with the arrangement we have suggested, you can request that the Financial Ombudsman Service review your case at no cost to you. The Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) is a free, neutral, and independent service that aids in conflict resolution. 

Your right to refer your complaint to the FOS will be included in the complete explanation of our decision that we will include in our Final Response. If you choose to do so, you must act within six months from the time indicated in our final response.
