HOW DO I ADDRESS A CONCERN OR MAKE A COMPLAINT?
After HPSC has received a copy of your quote or service agreement for the work to be completed, a Service Representative will be assigned to handle any concerns you may have. In some cases, HPSC may involve an on-site inspection in order to resolve a complaint/concern. If the issue is not resolved then HPSC will intervene and if the non resolved issue is not resolved and the issue is solely the responsibility or deficiency of the Service Provider then HPSC will act on behalf of the cardholder in resolving the issue.
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY OUR GUARANTEE?
1) Each of our authorized Service Providers are bonded or Police Checked, licensed and insured, standing behind the work they do for you.
2) HPS Card adds its own guarantee. If the job or service is not done right and the Service Provider can’t or will not complete the work or service as stipulated in the quote or agreement and provided that the quote or agreement was registered by the cardholder prior to the commencement of the work, then the HPS Card staff shall;
A) speak to the Service Provider to require why the work has not been completed as stipulated,
B) put formal documentation of the lack of performance by the Service Provider which shall be issued to the Service Provider,
C) put the Service Provider on notice and remove the Service Provider from Service Provider List until the issue is ratified,
D) notify the bond, license and insurance companies of the mis-representation of the Service Provider,
E) post the Service Provider on social media conveying the events that lead to the unsatisfied result.
All our Service Providers understand and agree to the above protocol. The consequences to the Service Providers are that if these measures were implemented by HPS on the behalf of the Cardholder, the results would be detrimental to the operation of the Service Provider.
