Complaints Policy
April 2026
Our goals are to:
- Make sure you are satisfied with how we handle your concerns;
- Respect and protect the rights of our customers; and
- Use your feedback to improve our services.
What is a complaint
A complaint is an expression of dissatisfaction made to or about us, related to our products, services, staff or the complaints handling process itself, where a response or resolution is explicitly or implicitly expected or legally required.
Who to contact if you have a complaint
loans.com.au welcomes all feedback from all our customers. If you have a concern that can’t be resolved straight away, we will investigate your case and keep you informed of the progress.
If you have a complaint, please contact loans.com.au at:
Phone: 13 10 90, 7am - 7pm Monday to Friday (AEST)
Email: customerrelations@loans.com.au

Our team will help you
Our team will try to resolve your complaint immediately, if we can.
We will acknowledge receipt of your complaint within 24 hours of receiving it. The complaint will be given appropriate priority in accordance with the urgency of the issues raised and the individual circumstances.
When we receive a complaint, the matter is referred to a person with the appropriate knowledge and authority to undertake the investigation. Our aim is to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible.
loans.com.au will investigate and respond to all customer complaints within the following timeframes:
| General complaints | 30 days after receiving the complaint |
| Credit-related complaints relating to default notices, hardship requests or enforcement proceedings | 21 days after receiving the complaint |
Response
Once we have completed our investigation and assessment of your complaint, we will then provide the outcome and the reasons for reaching that decision to you in the same way you contacted us, whether that’s by post, email or telephone. This is known as an internal dispute resolution (IDR) response.
The IDR response is a written response informing you of the following:
- The final outcome of your complaint
- Your right to escalate your complaint to the external dispute resolution scheme, Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA), if you are not satisfied with our IDR response
- The contact details for AFCA
Please note that we may not provide you with an IDR response in writing if by the end of the fifth business day after receipt of your complaint, we have:
- Resolved your complaint to your satisfaction; or
- Given you an explanation and/or apology when we can take no further action to reasonably address your complaint.
However, if you request a written response or your complaint is about hardship, we will still provide a written IDR response, even if your complaint is closed by the end of the fifth business day,
If we can’t resolve your complaint, you can seek independent review
If you aren’t satisfied with our final response to your complaint, you have the option to contact AFCA with your concerns.
You can contact AFCA via the following methods:
Website: www.afca.org.au
Telephone: 13 10 90
