Complaints Handling Procedure

​

As required by the Funerals Act 2006 (Vic), Michael Crawford Funerals has a complaints handling procedure.

Whilst it is hoped that any concerns can be addressed by the Funeral Arranger assisting you with the funeral,  if this is not possible, the following procedures should be followed.

How to make a complaint:

If you have any concerns with the level of service and care we have provided, you may convey them to our Managing Director via any of the following means:

​

In person:      
By appointment at a mutually convenient time and place;

By telephone: 
By phoning (03) 5367 6733 during normal business hours;

In writing:      
By outlining your concerns in a letter, email or fax. To ensure a prompt response, please include your contact details.

Acknowledgement & Investigation

Your complaint will be promptly acknowledged in writing and/or by telephone.

We will generally need some time to investigate the complaint.  The amount of time needed will depend on the number and the availability of people involved, and the complexity, seriousness and/or urgency of the complaint.  We may need to communicate with you during the investigation process to clarify aspects of the complaint.

Response and Communication

We will provide you with a response to the complaint as soon as possible after completing an appropriate investigation.

Whilst we will generally respond to you in writing, sometimes a verbal response is more practical and/or appropriate.
