Contact First Direct Customer Service Fast

First Direct gives mobile banking and telephone services to over 1.5 million customers across the United Kingdom. This high number of customers has led to the issue of long queues while trying to reach human customer care. Many First Direct customers eventually give up while trying to contact the First Direct customer service agent.

To eliminate this hassle, DoNotPay has created Skip Waiting on Hold product that contacts any customer service on your behalf and connects directly to you once a First Direct customer service employee is online.

Alternative Ways to Resolve Customer Service Complaints

If you are not satisfied with how First Direct or any other company handled your issue, you can try to file your complaint using the following alternative ways.

ADR Schemes (Alternative Dispute Resolutions)

Alternative dispute resolutions (ADR) have four primary forms of resolving a dispute. They include negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and conciliation. The main intention of ADR is to avoid going to court.

In the UK, there are large ADR schemes in 3 regulated sectors. These include

1. Financial services
2. Energy
3. Telecoms

Many businesses are members of voluntary ADR schemes outside these regulated sectors, and the numbers are growing fast.

Ombudsman

Ombudsman is an individual appointed to resolve complaints from different companies and organisations. Their main ways of resolution include

• A formal apology to you from the company.
• A formal explanation by the company detailing what went wrong.
• A practical action to correct the issue.
• A financial award.
• A formal recommendation from the Ombudsman to the company to help avoid a similar problem.

First Direct Corporate address

• Physical visits by the customers, thereby, issues are resolved quickly.

3. After filling out the court forms, you can file an official complaint with the court. DoNotPay will guide you through the process step by step.
