How your complaint will be handled

When a complaint is received by Mukuru, the following process is followed:

  • The Support team logs complaint and creates a ticket for the Quality Assurance Team.
  • The Quality Assurance Team acknowledges receipt, issues a ticket number, and provides updates every 48 hours to the customer.
  • If unresolved, the complaint is escalated to a manager.
  • The manager investigates and consults the responsible persons to resolve the complaint as soon as possible.
  • Complicated or legal cases may be referred to the Legal Team.
  • The final decision, including the reasons, is communicated to the customer.

Complaint Reference Number
When you send a complaint, you’ll get a reference number to track it.
