The Customer Owned Banking Code Compliance Committee (COBCCC) is an independent committee, established in accordance with the Code, to ensure that subscribers to the Code are meeting the standards of good practice that they promised to achieve when they signed up to the Code. The COBCCC investigates complaints that the Code has been breached and monitors compliance with the Code through methods such as mystery shopping, surveys, compliance visits and complaint handling.

Please be aware that the COBCCC is not a dispute resolution body. To make a claim for financial compensation we recommend you contact us first. You can contact our external dispute resolution provider, the Australian Financial Complaints Authority, directly. However, they will refer the complaint back to us to see if we can resolve it directly with you before involving them.
