Our timetable for resolving your complaint 

The timetables depend on which legal entity provided you with the product or service you complained about and where you are located. 

If you are based in APAC region..
Once you have submitted a complaint, we will acknowledge receipt of it within 24 hours from the time of submission. We’ll then investigate the issue and for any general complaints we aim to respond to you via email within 15 business days from the date of our acknowledgement.  

Where your issue relates to unauthorized transactions, please note that we may require up to 21 business days to investigate straightforward cases, and up to 45 days for complex cases or cases which involve cross-border and overseas transactions.  A full resolution of your issue may only be provided once the investigation process has been completed. 

If you are based in Australia, and your complaint is about the Wirex card... 
Once you have submitted a complaint, we will acknowledge receipt of it within 24 hours, and provide a final response within 30 business days. If we are unable to resolve your complaint to your satisfaction after the 30 business days, you may be eligible to escalate the complaint to Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA), an external dispute resolution service.  The period of 30 business days may be extended in exceptional circumstances or where the Issuer decides to resolve the complaint under the rules of the VISA scheme. If you wish to escalate the complaint, please tell us and we will facilitate referral free of charge. Please see section below for more details.

Complaint investigation and final response 

We will investigate your complaint to determine whether the complaint should be upheld, and (if appropriate) determine remedial action and/or redress. Please note that we may request for further information or documentation in support of the request.  For issues relating to unauthorized transactions, we may also require you to file and furnish us with a copy of a formal report with your local law enforcement agency. 

We will set out our conclusions in a final response. If we decide that redress is appropriate, we will aim to provide you with fair compensation for any acts or omissions for which we are responsible. If you accept our offer, we will promptly provide a compensation to you. If you don’t agree with the resolution offered, you are entitled to escalate your complaint to the relevant dispute resolution authority described in the section below.  

For more details, please refer to Wirex Pte T&Cs or Australia Pty Ltd T&Cs.
