Complaining about boat services
Each company will have its own complaints procedure, but as a general rule if your complaint cannot be dealt with immediately you should write to the company concerned as soon as possible.
The address should be included in their brochure. If you are unhappy with their response and think you have been treated unfairly the Consumer Council may be able to take up the complaint on your behalf.
