SUMMARY OF COMPLAINT HANDLING PROCEDURES
IPP Online has procedures in place to handle any written or verbal complaints received from clients in a fair and prompt manner. This is a summary of those procedures, which we provide to new clients and clients who have filed a complaint.

How to File a Complaint with IPP Online
Clients wishing to complain to IPP Online may make their complaint to our office by using the contact information at the bottom of the page. All complaints are forwarded to qualified compliance or supervisory personnel to be handled.

We encourage clients to make their complaint in writing or by email where possible. Where clients have difficulty putting their complaint in writing, they should advise us so that we can provide assistance. For confidentiality reasons, we will only deal with the client or another individual who has the client’s express written authorization to deal with us.

Complaint Handling Procedures
We will acknowledge receipt of complaints promptly, generally within seven days. We review all complaints fairly, taking into account all relevant documents and statements obtained from the client, our records, our financial Advisors, other staff members and any other relevant source. Once our review is complete we provide clients with our response, which will be in writing if the complaint was made in writing. Our response maybe an offer to resolve your complaint, a denial of the complaint with reasons or another appropriate response.

Our response will summarize your complaint, our findings, and will contain a reminder about your options with the Ombudsman for Banking Services and Investments. We will generally provide our response within ninety days, unless we are waiting for additional information from you, or the case is novel or very complicated. We will respond to communications you send us after the date of our response to the extent necessary to implement a resolution or to address any new issues or information you provide.

Settlements
If we offer you a financial settlement, we may ask you to sign a release and waiver for legal reasons.
