Customer Complaint Response Kit

Handle customer complaints fairly, consistently and without starting from scratch.
A complaint can arrive by email, message, call or review. The risk is a rushed reply, missing facts, unclear ownership or a promise nobody records. This kit gives a small business a practical workflow and reusable templates for ordinary non-regulated customer complaints.
Fixed fee: £395 + VAT. Optional structured review of one existing complaint: £195 + VAT.
What is included
Complaint intake record and acknowledgement template
Triage and escalation checklist
Investigation plan, evidence log and customer-contact record
Outcome templates for upheld, partly upheld and not upheld complaints
Remedy, approval, closure and follow-up records
Lessons and recurring-issue log, with internal use notes and handover
Who it suits
A small UK B2B or ordinary service business that handles its own customer complaints and wants a fair, consistent process before the next complaint arrives.
How it works

Map the current route and who is responsible.

FAQs
Q: We only get a few complaints a year. Is this worth it?
A: Yes, if each one currently starts from a blank email. The kit gives you the same calm route every time: acknowledge, check the facts, decide, record the outcome and learn from it.
Q: What will I get?
A: Editable templates for intake, acknowledgement, triage, investigation, outcomes, remedies and the lessons log, tailored to your business, with use notes and a handover.
Q: Can you help with a complaint we are dealing with now?
A: For an ordinary non-regulated complaint, yes: the optional £195 + VAT review organises it against the new workflow and identifies missing information. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
