Within 8 weeks of receiving your complaint, we will send you a final response letter. For more complex complaints it may not be possible to resolve your complaint within this time, if this is the case we will update you and let you know when we estimate a final response will be sent to you.

Your final response letter will include the details of our investigation, our decision about your complaint and any next steps. It will also include information about what to do if you are not satisfied with our response and information about the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS).

If you have an issue with a purchase from a retailer partner

If you have an issue with a purchase you’ve made from one of our retailer partners using finance from Ikano Bank, we’ll ask you to complete a ‘dispute form’. We need you to do this so we have all the information we need to raise this with the retailer.

Call us to ask for a dispute form on 0371 781 3080*

Or, download a copy now

Post it to us at: 

Ikano Bank
PO Box 10081

Once we have received the completed form, we will raise this dispute with the retailer on your behalf. We’ll write to you to confirm this and let you know the details of how this will be investigated.

We’ll let you know if payments will still be required while the retailer is looking into your dispute.

After the retailer has investigated your dispute, we will write to you with a resolution.
