Complaints

At Lopay Limited, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of ethics and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. We also take pride in delivering excellent service to all our users — that is, the individual or business (“you” or “user”) who has registered with the Lopay App.

However, we understand that things don’t always go as expected. When concerns do arise, we’re here to listen and act. This Complaints Handling Policy outlines how we manage and respond to complaints about Lopay. Our process is designed to ensure that every concern is taken seriously, investigated promptly, and resolved as fairly as possible.

We’ve established clear procedures to make sure all feedback is acknowledged and addressed quickly. Beyond resolving individual issues, we see complaints as an important opportunity to learn and improve. The insights we gain help us strengthen our products, enhance customer service, and refine our internal processes — all to help prevent similar issues from happening again.

We encourage you to read this Policy alongside our Merchant Terms and Conditions, available at: https://lopay.com/terms-of-use/.

Complaints process explained

We’ll always do our best to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible and will keep you updated every step of the way.

If your complaint relates to a payment or has a financial impact on your business, we aim to provide a final response within 15 business days. If something outside of our control causes a delay, we’ll let you know why and keep you informed of our progress until it’s resolved.

Similarly, if we determine another party is responsible for the issue, Lopay may redirect you to them so it can be handled appropriately.

If we're unable to resolve your complaint within the expected timeframe, we'll send you a final response letter. This will include details on how to contact the Financial Ombudsman Service, along with guidance on how to refer your complaint to them if you'd like to take things further.

The Ombudsman will only step in once we’ve had the opportunity to fully investigate your complaint. However, once you’ve received our final response, you’ll have up to six months to get in touch with them if you choose to do so.

The Financial Ombudsman Service

If you’re not happy with the final response to your complaint, you may be able to refer the case to the Financial Ombudsman Service. The Financial Ombudsman Service is an independent organisation that settles disputes between consumers and businesses providing financial services.

You can call, email or write to the Financial Ombudsman Service using the details below. When contacting them, please reference Lopay Limited.
