Complaints
If you are unhappy with the service or we have not done something we said we would, please let us know. Problems can arise without our knowledge so we welcome the opportunity to put matters right. We also like to hear when a service is delivered well. In both cases, we value your opinion! In the first instance we would ask you to follow PM&D's own complaints procedure . Most problems can be dealt with quickly by people closest to the situation If you are unhappy with PM&D's response then you can escalate your complaint through the council's formal procedures by downloading a "Points of View" leaflet.
