Presentation and objective of the procedure

Handling complaints
Complaints are received by Customer Services. They are handled free of charge by the agent in charge of the complaint (Customer Service Manager);
When a Customer submits a Complaint, an e-mail confirming that the Complaint has been dealt with is sent within 48 hours;
The Customer Service Manager records the Complaint in the Complaints Tracking Spreadsheet, which includes the following information:
the customer's name;
the date on which the complaint was received;
the subject of the complaint;
the criticality of the complaint ;
the investment or service concerned;
stakeholders other than Enerfip (Project Sponsor);
the date of the response made to the customer;
any corrective action taken;
The Customer Service Manager analyses the complaint
The criticality is assessed by the Customer Service Manager according to two levels: minor, major. Complaints of major criticality lead to consultation with Management and are subject to special documentation and archiving measures.
If the complaint is incomplete, in particular if it does not include the full identity of the Customer and a precise description of the problem encountered, which will enable Customer Services to direct the request to the appropriate complaint channel, the Customer Service Manager will immediately ask the Customer to provide the information necessary for the complaint to be processed correctly.
If the complaint is unjustified, the Customer Service Manager will inform the customer without delay, detailing the reasons, except where the customer is the subject of a TRACFIN declaration. Thus, if the customer is the subject of a TRACFIN declaration, the customer is informed that his claim is unjustified but without detailing the reasons. If the claim is justified:
either Enerfip is able to provide an immediate solution to the problem, in which case it implements the necessary corrective action, and informs the Customer by e-mail;
or Enerfip is unable to provide an immediate solution to the problem, in which case it will immediately send the Customer an e-mail informing them that the problem raised has been taken into account and, if it can, the actions envisaged and the estimated response time;
In the latter case, Enerfip diligently implements the necessary corrective actions. All the stages of the procedure (sending of the e-mail confirming that the complaint has been dealt with, registration of the complaint, implementation of corrective actions, response to the Complaint) are recorded in the Tracking Spreadsheet. In all cases, and except in duly justified special circumstances, in accordance with article 14 of Enerfip's GT&Cs, all Customer Complaints receive a response within a maximum period of two months.
Control of complaints processing
A review of recorded complaints is carried out at least once a month by the Complaints Handling Manager with all agents. An annual report is organised by the Claims Handling Manager for the Internal Compliance Department and the Company's Management
This report is included in the Company's annual Activity Report
Complaints relating to services offered by the Payment Service Provider or Banking Partner
Complaints relating to the services offered by the Banking Partner are sent to Enerfip in accordance with the procedures set out in 1. The Customer Responsible Enerfip forwards the Complaints addressed to it to the Banking Partner within 5 working days of receipt of the Complaint
The Customer Service Manager ensures that the Banking Partner confirms whether or not the Complaint has been dealt with within 5 working days. If the Banking Partner accepts the Claim, the Customer Service Manager informs the Customer. If the Banking Partner refuses to deal with the Complaint, the Customer Service Manager shall seek an amicable solution with the Banking Partner, in the Customer's best interests. The Customer Service Manager informs the Customer without delay as soon as a solution has been found to deal with the Complaint.
