At Dynamic Car Leasing, we strive to deliver a high level of service and ensure that our customers never have cause to complain. However, we realise that sometimes things don’t go according to plan, and where this results in any kind of complaint, we need to ensure we have the right procedures in place to be able to put things right quickly and amicably.

What counts as a complaint?

A complaint is any contact from, or on behalf of a customer or potential customer who is not satisfied with any part of our service.

What happens after you’ve made a complaint?

We will try to resolve your complaint as quickly as simply as possible. We will give you an explanation and an apology for any problems we have caused, and take action to put things right.

When the BVRLA can consider your complaint

If we have made it clear that we have done all we can do to resolve your complaint, you may refer your complaint to the BVRLA, ideally within 4 weeks from us having issued our final response

How will the BVRLA handle your complaint?

Step 1 – Informal Conciliation

In the first instance, the BVRLA will ask Dynamic Car Leasing to provide full details on your complaint, including what steps we have taken to resolve the issue. They will consider this along with the information you have provided, and then deliver comments and recommendations based on the information given by both parties. If either party remains unhappy with the outcome of the informal conciliation service, a formal conciliation service can be invoked.

The BVRLA aims to resolve complaints through the informal conciliation service within 30 days.

Step 2 – Formal conciliation

All relevant details will be promptly forwarded by the BVRLA’s Legal Services Team to the appropriate Conciliation Committee, a body whose Members are appointed by the Committee of Management of the BVRLA. Disputes referred to a Conciliation Committee shall be actioned and the decision notified to the customer by the Association within 30 working days from the referral of the dispute to the Conciliation Committee.

What is covered under the BVRLA Conciliation Service

Conciliation procedures shall apply solely to matters arising out of the vehicle rental and leasing activities of Corporate Members or Leasing Broker Members. Associate Members, who are suppliers of services to the rental and leasing industry, but who do not operate their own rental or leasing operations, are not subject to the Code of Conduct.

No Restriction on Rights

Nothing in the BVRLA Code of Conduct restricts, nor is intended to restrict, the rights of a complainant or a Leasing Broker Member, to pursue remedies through the courts.

Financial Ombudsman Service (Consumer Credit Act)

Customers who have entered into an agreement which is regulated by the Consumer Credit Act (such as consumers, sole traders and small partnerships) have the right to refer any complaint which relates to their finance/lease agreement to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

In the event that you remain unsatisfied with our complaint, or the result of the conciliation service provided by the BVRLA, you may refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service within 6 months of the date of the final response provided. Please note the Financial Ombudsman will not consider any complaint until Dynamic Car Leasing has had the opportunity to resolve it.

Complaints should be made in writing to:
Financial Ombudsman Service
South Quay Plaza
London
E14 9SR
