  2. All complaints will be entered and tracked in Metro's Customer Relationship Management database.
  3. All customers will receive an initial acknowledgement of their complaint within five business days, and where possible complaints will be resolved on the first contact.
    • All customers will be notified of the outcome of the complaint investigation.
    • All customers have a right to appeal the findings of the investigation if they are not satisfied.
    • Metro's goal is to resolve all complaints within five business days, however some complaints may require additional investigation and follow-up time.
