If you have a complaint
1 Contact MIPS
It is possible to resolve the issue simply by communicating the problem to a MIPS staff member. Alternatively, the staff member will refer you to the appropriate contact person at MIPS based on the nature of the issue. This way your complaint reaches the right person. A response is usually provided to you within 5 business days. You can contact us:
2 Review by our Internal Dispute Resolution Manager
If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the initial complaint response, you can request the complaint be referred to the Internal Dispute Manager for review. The manager will treat your complaint as a dispute and conduct an independent review of the matter. The manager will respond to your complaint within 30 calendar days, provided we have all the necessary information and have completed our investigations. If we need more information or need to undertake further investigation, we will agree reasonable alternative timeframes with you. When a decision about your complaint has been made we will notify you of our decision in writing, setting out the reasons for our decision.
You can contact MIPS Internal Dispute Resolution Manager:
- Phone: 1800 061 113
- Email: complaints@mips.com.au (for attention of IDR Manager)
- Post: MIPS Internal Dispute Resolution Manager, PO Box 24240, Melbourne VIC 3001
