Prime Alliance INTERNAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION Scheme

KATERSON PTY LTD t/as Prime Alliance [ABN 49 062 479 341]

We, Ashika Sharma & Karen Anderson believe that it is essential for our clients to be able to identify and deal with a broker who has the ability, authority and proper training to hear and respond appropriately to any complaints or disputes.

We are a member of the Mortgage & Finance Association of Australia (MFAA) and as such we are also subject to the requirement to have in place an Internal Dispute Resolution procedure.  

Receiving complaints

You can lodge complaints by contacting Karen Anderson, the Complaints Officer by:

• telephoning 02 8852 3588
• e-mailing  This email address is being protected from spam bots, you need Javascript enabled to view it  
• writing to P.O Box 7404, Baulkham Hills NSW 2153
  

or by speaking to any representative of our business who will refer you to the Complaints Officer.

You should explain the details of your complaint as clearly as you can.  You may do this verbally or in writing.

When we receive a complaint, we will attempt to resolve it promptly.  We hope that in this way we will stop any unnecessary and inappropriate escalation of minor complaints.  

We will observe the following principles in handling your complaint:

1. there is no requirement for face-to-face contact between you and us, although it may be useful for us to come to a satisfactory resolution;
2. we expect that both parties will make a genuine attempt to resolve a complaint promptly; 
3. we expect that both parties will provide all essential and relevant information, documents, written statements and any other materials that may properly and reasonably be believed to assist in resolving the complaint; 
4. we expect that both parties will comply with all reasonable requests from the other party to provide information within a reasonable time frame.
