COMPLAINTS & FEEDBACK

We welcome feedback and will handle complaints in a fair and open way. Every reasonable effort will be made by Consumer Action (including its National Debt Helpline service) to resolve the complaints it receives to the satisfaction of everyone involved.

The purpose of Consumer Action Law Centre’s worker advice line is to:

  • provide legal information and advice to caseworkers, including financial counsellors, community lawyers and other not-for-profit workers in relation to their clients’ consumer, credit and debt issues;
  • build the capacity and knowledge of community workers to provide assistance to their clients in relation to consumer, credit and debt issues;
  • maintain effective referral pathways for disadvantaged, low income or otherwise vulnerable clients requiring legal assistance; and
  • provide us with information about the systemic issues impacting low income or otherwise vulnerable clients.
