Filing a Complaint Against A Business Establishment

If you have a complaint against a business establishment or you are pushing to file a case against the company for particular issues, here are a few things you need to know.

1.    The Companies Investigation Branch

The UK Department for Business, Innovation and Skills has a regulating branch called the Companies Investigation Branch. The CIB focuses on investigating companies that have stopped activity without going through formal insolvency proceedings. You’ll need to submit a CIB complaint form that will ask you about your relation to the company and how their activities have hampered you.

2.    Identity

It is possible to complain to the CIB anonymously if you fear you are facing a multinational company and your reputation is at risk. The CIB promises to treat your information and identity with strict confidence. However, you will not be able to provide further information to CIB or discuss any future concerns with CIB, which makes the investigation against the company in question less likely.

3.    Type of Upset

Most investigating bodies will ask you specifically how a company upset you as a customer or as an investor. This could range from physical problems, deficits, product consequence or the lack of transparency. You will need to provide evidence or an investigation reference for investigators to begin.
