1. Introduction
X-Eagle (Xeagle Ltd) is committed to providing an excellent courier service. However, we understand that things can sometimes go wrong. When they do, we want to hear from you so we can put things right as quickly as possible.
This complaints procedure explains how to raise a complaint, what to expect from us, and how we will handle your concerns.
2. How to Make a Complaint
You can raise a complaint through any of the following channels:
When making a complaint, please provide:
- Your name and contact details
- Your booking reference number (if applicable)
- A clear description of the issue
- The date and time the issue occurred
- Any supporting evidence (photos, correspondence, etc.)
- What outcome you are seeking
3. Our Response Times
We take all complaints seriously and aim to resolve them as quickly as possible. Our target response times are:
Acknowledgement: Within 2 hours of receiving your complaint during business hours
Investigation: We will investigate and provide you with an initial update within 24 hours
Resolution: We aim to fully resolve your complaint within 48 hours
If your complaint is complex and requires a longer investigation, we will keep you informed of progress and provide a realistic timeframe for resolution.
4. Investigation Process
Once a complaint is received, we will:
- Log the complaint with a unique reference number
- Assign a dedicated handler to your case
- Review all relevant records, tracking data, and communications
- Speak with drivers, dispatch staff, and any other relevant parties
- Contact you for any additional information required
- Determine the cause and identify the appropriate resolution
5. Escalation Process
If you are not satisfied with the initial response to your complaint, you may escalate it through the following stages:
- Stage 1 — Operations Team: Your complaint is handled by our operations team. Most issues are resolved at this stage.
- Stage 2 — Operations Manager: If you remain dissatisfied, your complaint will be escalated to an Operations Manager for further review. You will receive a response within 5 working days.
- Stage 3 — Director Review: If the matter is still unresolved, you may request a final review by a Director of Xeagle Ltd. A written response will be provided within 10 working days.
If after exhausting our internal complaints procedure you remain dissatisfied, you may seek independent advice or contact the relevant trading standards authority.
