Alternative Ways to File a Complaint Against Ladbrokes

According to Trustpilot reviews, Ladbrokes “customer service is non-existent and response wait time could take hours”. If you already tried dealing with their customer support department to find a resolution but were merely disappointed, then it’s time to seek alternative ways of filing your complaint.

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Schemes

Alternative dispute resolution or an ADR aims to resolve the conflict without taking the issue to court. Given that Ladbrokes is within the betting and sporting company, its ADR schemes are unregulated by the UK government.

Types of ADR include:

  • Mediation - The approach uses an independent third party who provides input and helps conflicting parties settle on an agreement.
  • Arbitration - A contracted independent third party makes a binding decision that is fair to both parties involved.

You can only use these ADR schemes when evidence shows you have already filed a complaint at Ladbrokes and no satisfactory resolution came off your efforts. The arbitrator or mediator will also require you to present evidence such as pictures, call invoices, or tweets.

Contact an Ombudsman

The next option in case an ADR scheme fails is to contact an ombudsman. An ombudsman is a professional who serves as an independent third party for settlements. A private ombudsman can resolve your complaints against Ladbrokes.

Before meeting the ombudsman, ensure you have a letter of deadlock from Ladbrokes indicating you were unable to resolve the conflict. You will also need to present evidence, including pictures, tweet records, or call invoices, to show you communicated with Ladbrokes.

The ombudsman will serve as the middle man and the primary decision-making for this complaint resolution process. After evaluating the evidence and determining the validity of the complaint, the ombudsman will contact Ladbrokes to make a settlement.

Small Claims Court

If you are unsatisfied with ADR or the ombudsman, you can settle your complaint through a small claims court. It involves the following process:

  1. File a small claim court complaint. Fill out the claim form, and include evidence within complaint documents (pictures, records, complaints forms).
  2. Pay court fees.
  3. Wait for the court date and verdict.
  4. If you win, you will receive compensation.
