Complaints
Oodle are passionate about providing the highest quality products and service to our customers, but we know sometimes things can go wrong. If that happens, we want to know about it so we can put things right as soon as possible. Below we’ve explained how to make a complaint and the timescales involved so you know what to expect whilst we’re investigating and resolving your complaint.
If you’re unhappy about something, you can get in touch in a way that suits you.
Filling out our complaint forms is simple and helps us collect the information needed to begin addressing your complaint as quickly as possible. We offer two complaint forms:

We’re sorry we didn’t get things quite right for you. Here are the steps we’ll take to try and put things right.
Once we’ve received your complaint, we want to resolve it as soon as possible. If we’re able to do this within three business days and to your satisfaction, we’ll send you written confirmation of the outcome and details of the Financial Ombudsman Service referral process.
If we can’t resolve it within the above timescale or need to look into your complaint in more detail the below timescales will be followed.
We’ll acknowledge your complaint within five working days of your complaint being received.
If we’ve been unable to provide a full response to your complaint, we’ll write to you again to confirm our investigations remain on-going.
If we’re not able to provide you with our final response at this point, we’ll write to you to confirm this and provide details on how to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
When we send our final response to you, it will set out how we investigated your complaint, our decision, and any actions we have taken or plan to take, based on your individual circumstances.
You’ve six months from the date of our final response to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Claims management companies and law firms can act as intermediaries between customers and companies, meaning they contact Oodle about your complaint on your behalf. They often charge a fee for this service. We wanted to you let you know that when you contact us directly, we assess your complaint in exactly the same way as we assess complaints sent in by a claims management company or law firm. The only difference is you won't have to pay a fee if you do receive compensation.
Every 6 months both the Financial Conduct Authority and the Financial Ombudsman publish complaints data about individual financial businesses. You can find a summary of our latest complaints data here: https://www.oodlecarfinance.com/use-of-complaint-data
