Ombudsman: complaint service

The employees of the BRDA do their best every day to offer you outstanding service. In spite of their application and diligence, it is possible that you are not completely satisfied or that you want to make a complaint.
Do you think that the service provided is not what was agreed? Do you feel you are being sent to one office after another without a solution? Did the information that was given to you turn out to be inaccurate or incomplete? Do you think that your claim was not handled appropriately?
