4. Complaint Handling Process

Once a complaint is received, we aim to:

  1. acknowledge the complaint,
  2. review the issue,
  3. gather relevant information,
  4. investigate internally,
  5. and provide a response or proposed resolution.

Depending on the nature of the complaint, investigations may involve:

  • production review,
  • artwork approval verification,
  • courier communication,
  • quality control checks,
  • or order history assessment.

5. Response Timeframes

We aim to respond to complaints within a reasonable timeframe.

Response times may vary depending on:

  • complaint complexity,
  • order history,
  • shipping investigations,
  • supplier communication,
  • or production review requirements.

Where additional time is required, we will aim to keep customers informed throughout the process.

6. Possible Outcomes

Following investigation, possible outcomes may include:

  • clarification of the issue,
  • replacement products,
  • partial refunds,
  • full refunds where appropriate,
  • production corrections,
  • goodwill resolutions,
  • or explanation of manufacturing tolerances and policy limitations.

Each complaint is assessed individually based on the circumstances involved.

7. Manufacturing Tolerances

Custom velcro patches are manufactured products and may include minor variations in:

  • thread colour,
  • embroidery density,
  • PVC detail,
  • sizing,
  • borders,
  • backing alignment,
  • or material texture.

Small manufacturing differences are considered standard production tolerances and may not automatically qualify as defects.

8. Artwork Approval Responsibility

Customers are responsible for reviewing and approving all digital proofs before production begins.

Approved artwork confirms acceptance of:

  • spelling,
  • colours,
  • sizing,
  • layout,
  • backing type,
  • and overall design details.

Custom Velcro Patches UK cannot accept responsibility for errors approved by the customer during the artwork approval process.

9. Delivery & Courier Complaints

Where complaints involve shipping or delivery services, investigation may require:

  • courier tracking review,
  • delivery confirmation,
  • packaging assessment,
  • or claims processing with external delivery providers.

Courier-related resolutions may depend on third-party investigation outcomes.

10. Respectful Communication

We are committed to maintaining respectful communication with all customers.

We ask customers to communicate respectfully with our team during the complaint process.

Abusive, threatening, discriminatory, or inappropriate behaviour toward staff may result in restricted communication or termination of service where necessary.

11. Continuous Improvement

Customer feedback helps us improve:

  • product quality,
  • customer communication,
  • website usability,
  • production workflows,
  • and delivery processes.

Complaints are reviewed internally to identify opportunities for operational improvement.

12. Escalation

If a customer remains dissatisfied after an initial response, they may request further review of the complaint.

Additional review may involve:

  • senior staff assessment,
  • production re-evaluation,
  • or further investigation into the issue raised.

13. Policy Updates

This Complaints Policy may be updated periodically to reflect:

  • operational changes,
  • legal requirements,
