New Zealand Philatelic Federation

Complaints Procedure

The New Zealand Philatelic Federation (NZPF) is committed to ensuring high quality service. However, there may be occasions when problems do arise and you do not get the standard of service you expect. All complaints are taken seriously and acted upon.
This procedure sets out NZPF’s processes for resolving complaints. The procedure is intended to ensure all complaints are handled fairly and consistently.
All official complaints will be thoroughly investigated and, if justified, we will put matters right, giving you an explanation and an apology.
