Complaints/Feedback Policy
It is our customer service aspiration to resolve any issues brought to the immediate attention of a Manager. However, if a prompt resolution is not feasible, and to ensure that all issues are recorded, Sport Ireland Campus use an integrated Customer Service Feedback system.
When a member of the public raises a concern, or wishes to provide feedback, all staff will be able to note through an online form, the feedback they have received, which department it related to, and request for contact. Staff may alternatively take notes and fill in the form at a time convenient to them later in the same day.
Whether the feedback comes verbally, email, phone or social media, staff will input the complaint/feedback into the system.
Where issues/complaints are dealt with at the point of discussion, staff will also input the feedback for the attention of management even when no follow up is required. The forms are processed and dealt with by duty managers and senior management.
Our Response Objectives
We aim to acknowledge all complaints/ feedback within 36 hours, if contact details are clearly provided.
We endeavour to reply formally to the customer, by their preferred medium (phone/email/letter), within 5 working days.
