Alexandra Newspapers may seek further details after your initial contact, and reserve the right to reject, without further investigation, complaints that show no breach.

Timing

Alexandra Newspapers aims to acknowledge your complaint within two working days of receiving the complaint. In making a complaint, you agree to respond promptly to any request for further information.

Alexandra Newspapers will respond to all complaints within 28 days of receiving all the necessary information to allow us to investigate.

If at any stage of your complaint Alexandra Newspapers does not hear back from you within 14 days, the complaint will be considered satisfied and closed.
