Lloyd's Greek Policyholders - How To Make A Complaint

Find out how to make a complaint and the complaint handling procedure.

If you wish to make a complaint please check your policy for details of the person to contact.  Alternatively contact your broker or if the complaint relates to a claim contact whoever has been handling your claim to inform them of your dissatisfaction.

What is a Complaint?

The Bank of Greece defines a complaint as:

A statement of dissatisfaction addressed to an insurance undertaking by a person relating to the insurance contract or service he/she has been provided with. Complaints handling is differentiated from claims handling as well as from simple requests for execution of the contract, information or clarification.

How Lloyd's will handle your complaint?

The Lloyd's managing agent, or the party named in your policy that has been appointed to handle your complaint on their behalf will aim to provide you its decision, in writing, within 50 calendar days of receipt of the complaint.

If you remain dissatisfied once you have received the final response you may refer your complaint to one of the three External Dispute Resolution schemes in operation in Greece. Their contact details are:
