Complaints Handling Policy
This policy has been developed by Australian Debt Agreements in accordance with ITSA industry standards for complaints handling.
This complaint handling policy aims to:
- provide a framework for Australian Debt Agreements employees to work with when handling Complaints from Customers;
- ensure consistency within Australian Debt Agreements in handling and resolving Complaints from Customers; and
- assist Australian Debt Agreements’ commitment to provide a quality service to it’s customers.
Australian Debt Agreements defines the term complaint as an expression of dissatisfaction made to us by a Customer or member of the public with any product or service of Australian Debt Agreements.
Here at Australian Debt Agreements we endeavour to provide the highest level of service possible each and every debtor. If however, for some reason, you are unhappy with the service we provide, please feel free to make a formal or informal complaint to have your issue resolved.

Complaints can be lodged by:
Phone on 1300 123 328;
Electronic Mail to: complaints@australiandebtagreements.com.au; or
Post to: Correspondence Team, PO BOX 496, HABERFIELD, NSW 2045.

ESCALATION OF COMPLAINTS
Australian Debt Agreements’ goal in the area of complaints handling is to finalise complaints at first contact. Where necessary, clients will be kept informed of the progress of their complaint.
Where a Customer has exhausted their avenues for addressing their complaint within Australian Debt Agreements or find those avenues unacceptable, they can be advised of external channels for escalation, such as our industry body. You may at no cost to you, contact or lodge a written complaint with our industry association:
