We pride ourselves on the high quality of service that we provide to our valued customers. Unfortunately, from time to time, things don’t always go to plan. When this happens and if you feel that we have not dealt with something as you would have liked, we encourage you to let us know. We will work with you to put things right and we will always use your feedback to improve our performance.
In the interests of good customer service, Ocasa Management Limited have adopted the following procedure which will be followed in dealing with any complaint received:
Stage One
We would like to deal with any issue you may have as quickly as possible through your Operations Team. Your first point of contact should be your General Manager. This person is specified in your welcome information, on the notice board located in your building and on our Ocasa website. The General Manager will try and resolve the matter as quickly and as smoothly as possible. You will receive a formal response, on email or in writing, within two working days.
Stage Two
If the actions we have taken have not resolved the situation to your satisfaction, we encourage you to let us know by sending our Head of Operations an email or letter using the contact details below. We would ask that you clearly state ‘Head of Operations - Complaint’ in the title and provide as much detail as possible. We have also prepared a form at the end of this procedure document to help you capture the information we may need.

Within five working days of receipt of your written complaint or within five working days of a face to face meeting or video conference, we will write to you to inform you of the outcome of our internal investigation into your complaint and let you know what actions, if any, we have taken or will take.
