Resolving Your Complaint

At Vancity Community Investment Bank, we take client service very seriously and have procedures in place to handle any written or verbal complaint received from clients in a fair and prompt manner. We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your feedback as it will ultimately help us improve our products and services.

We will provide you with acknowledgement that we received your complaint without delay. We endeavour to resolve your complaint as soon as practical and resolutions should take no longer than 56 days from the date the complaint was received. If a complaint cannot be resolved within 56 days, a communication will be sent to notify you of the reason for the delay along with an estimate of the time required to complete the response.

To file a complaint or to escalate a complaint that is not resolved to your satisfaction, please follow the steps outlined below:

Internal Review Steps

Step 1: Talk to the Customer Service Representative or Relationship Manager relevant to your complaint:

Step 2: Escalate your Complaint

If you feel we did not resolve your concern to your satisfaction, please ask the Customer Service Representative or Relationship Manager that your concern is escalated to a supervisor or Manager.

Step 3: Contact our designated Senior Complaint Officer

If your complaint is still not resolved to your satisfaction after completing Step 1 and 2, please contact our designated Senior Complaint Officer in writing via email at: srcomplaintsofficer@vcib.ca. The Senior Complaints officer will only review your complaint after you have received a response from the supervisor or Manager involved in the Step 2.

The Senior Complaints Officer will provide VCIB’s final decision and explain how the outcome was made.

Our Commitment to the Seniors Code

What is the Code?

The Code of Conduct for the Delivery of Banking Services to Seniors (“Seniors Code”) released by the Canadian Bankers Association, is a code that applies to all Canadian banks who serve at least in part, customers over the age of 60. The Seniors Code includes seven principles which outline how a bank can better serve and accommodate the needs of older Canadians as well as the actions that can be taken to do so.

Our Commitment in Action

As a member of the CBA, we are committed to the ongoing evaluation of our program to ensure the principles as set out in the Seniors Code are fulfilled.

Our program includes:

Established policies, procedures, and processes to support the code.
Established processes to mitigate potential financial harm to seniors.
Established resources available to employees dealing with seniors to help them understand their banking needs.
Established training to our employees who serve seniors.
Established resources and coaching to support effective communication with seniors.
Consideration of market demographics and the needs of seniors while developing products and services.
Publicly disclose the steps taken to support the principles set out in the Code.
