Details on the complaints-handling process

We acknowledge all complaints immediately upon receipt. Once a complaint has been received, we will undertake an initial review of the complaint. The final decision on the complaint will be provided in written form.

We are committed to resolve complaints within max. 10 working days, but this will not be possible on all occasions. In case our review exceeds this time period, we will contact you to inform you of the causes of the delay, and indicate to you when we expect to be in a position to complete our review of the complaint.

In case you are dissatisfied with the manner in which your complaint has been handled, you have the right to refer the matter to one of the following bodies:

Bundesverband Deutscher Banken (BDB)
Postfach 04 03 07, 10062 Berlin

Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFin)
Marie-Curie-Straße 24, 60439 Frankfurt am Main

poststelle@bafin.de

As a purely precautionary measure and in addition to your right to refer to one of the aforementioned bodies, we would like to point out that you also have the option of taking a civil action to resolve the dispute.
