Complaint Level?

Does anyone know if there another level of complaints team within Monzo example directors office or executive team like nationwide and Barclays have?

I’ve not heard this either.

@michaelw90 is stating what I believe to be the case too. Complain in chat, escalated to the complaints team, then they give you a final response.

From there you either suck it up or go to the financial ombudsman.

They’ll have executives that you can complain to and sometimes they’ll fix things. The same as any company. If you write to the CEO, sometimes things get fixed. Sometimes they’ll ignore you.

But you’re better off going to the Ombudsman if you believe you’ve been treated unfairly once you’ve had Monzo’s final response, instead of keep trying to go up the ladder.

Yeah saw that after I’d finished typing my comment.

I can’t see why they’d get involved to be honest unless it’s really bizarre and serious.

That’s exactly what they’ve said

Only our customer advocacy team deal with complaints, execs don’t :blush:

I have spoken to Nationwide CEO office before and Barclays.

I have found some emails for monzo ceo team and sent an emails off.

All company’s have the teams, but monzo won’t admit it

Officially, of course.

Same as my CEO won’t deal with complaints. But when one lands on her desk, if often gets forwarded on to the relevant dept with a message to fix it.

No, you’re misunderstanding and conflating two different things.

I believe TS Anil is the CEO of Monzo US & Uk now

He is.

But you can’t keep complaining and going up and up the ranks until you get to him. It doesn’t work like that.

You can complain to Monzo and that will be dealt with by frontline staff, if you are not happy, that goes to the customer advocacy team, if you’re still not happy, you have to go to the financial ombudsman. Monzo will not escalate you any higher. There are no higher people that deal with complaints.

You may have had luck contacting execs before at other companies (I have, as have many people) but it doesn’t always work. And with a bank, there is the ombudsman that you don’t have the option for at Apple or Lego.

This lady is CEO of Monzo USA, but yes TS Anil is Group CEO. I’m surprised they haven’t installed a U.K. CEO too really so they can run things here while TS focuses on the wider picture. Maybe that will come in time.

Totally random question but is that his forename or initials? I can’t find the latter if that’s the case :confused:

Initials.
Tummalapalli Sai I believe.

I’m terrified I’ve spelt that wrong :see_no_evil: No disrespect meant if I have TS I promise!

ok thanks

thanks alot

@ysconhb is right, answer in The Times:

It’s 9am in California, which means it is halfway through the working day for Monzo’s newish chief executive. TS Anil (the initials stand for Tummalapalli Sai) has been online since 3.20am, speaking to the challenger bank’s team in London from his home in San Francisco via Google Hangouts. “It almost feels like it should be lunchtime,” he laughs.

Until lockdown restrictions are eased and he can move to the UK, Anil has to live out of sync with family and friends.

I wasn’t sure of the order but I left that out in my previous answer so as not to complicate matters further :rofl:

Anil is usually a first name, as is Sai, so I wasn’t sure whether Tummalapalli was in fact his surname and since it’s rather a mouthful for westerners he swapped it round and used Anil as his western surname and then just the other two initials. I might be way off the mark here, I only suggest this as I have half my family from India and a lot of them did something similar, and obviously it’s not unknown for people from Asia to westernise their name so it’s easier to pronounce in their adopted country. Sad that they have to in once sense


If he ever graces us with his presence maybe someone can ask.
