| Step 2: Escalate your complaint within the business area |
If you are not satisfied with the outcome of Step 1, ask to whom you can escalate your complaint. Each business area at BF&M has a defined complaint handling process. Depending on your product or service, you will be referred to a team leader, supervisor or manager who will review your complaint with a fresh set of eyes.
| Step 3: Contact the Ombudsman's Office |
If you are still not satisfied after following the previous steps, you can contact the BF&M Ombudsman's Office:
By mail:
Ombudsman's Office
BF&M Insurance Group
PO Box 1007
Hamilton HM DX
E-mail: ombudsman@bfm.bm
The Ombudsman's Office does not review complaints that have not yet been through Steps 1 and 2, so you'll want to indicate who you've already contacted, and why you disagree with their decision.
After the Ombudsman's Office review, you'll receive a written response, except in some cases where a simple problem can be cleared up quickly and to your satisfaction over the phone. Most investigations are completed within 30 days of receiving your complaint and all supporting information. If this deadline cannot be met, we will contact you to let you know why the extra time is necessary and when you can expect a response.
The written response from the Ombudsman's Office is considered BF&M’s final position on a complaint. Unless you present any new and relevant information that was not previously reviewed, your complaint will not be reopened.
