1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Mega Cash GO Australia Pty Ltd (Mega Cash GO, we, or us) is committed to effective and efficient complaints management and to fair and transparent dealings in the financial marketplace.

1.2 A complaint is an expression of dissatisfaction made to or about an organisation, related to its products, services, staff, or the handling of a complaint, where a response or resolution is explicitly or implicitly expected or legally required.

2 OUR COMPLAINTS MANAGEMENT PROCESS

2.1 Mega Cash GO takes your feedback seriously and will work proactively to investigate and resolve your complaint. If you have a complaint, please contact us by any of the following methods:

2.2 Any material relating to Mega Cash GO’s Internal Dispute Resolution (IDR) process will be provided to you free of charge.

2.4 Mega Cash GO will acknowledge your complaint, generally within one business day, and give you the contact details of the compliance support officer who will be responsible for dealing with your complaint.

2.5 The compliance support officer will commence their investigation and may require further details from you. Upon completion of their investigation, the compliance support officer will contact you with an IDR response. This will provide you with information about:

• the final outcome of your complaint at IDR; and
• your right to take the complaint to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) if you are not satisfied with the IDR response and how to contact AFCA.

2.6 Except where your complaint involves hardship, an IDR response is not required to be provided to you when a complaint is resolved by the end of the fifth business day of receipt of the complaint, where we have:

• resolved the complaint to your satisfaction; or
• given you an explanation and/or apology when no further action to reasonably address the complaint can be taken.

2.7 A written response will be provided if you request a written response or the complaint is about hardship.

3 TIMEFRAME FOR RESOLVING COMPLAINTS

Mega Cash GO endeavours to resolve all complaints as quickly as practicable. Many complaints can be resolved within days or on the spot. Mega Cash GO will keep you informed in relation to your dispute and will provide you with an IDR response within the following timeframes:

• if the complaint relates to default notices, hardship notices, or notices requesting postponement of enforcement proceedings, we will provide an IDR response no later than 21 calendar days after receiving the complaint; and
• for all other complaints received, we will provide an IDR response no later than 30 calendar days after receiving the complaint.
