Your feedback helps us serve you better. Whether it's a complaint, a suggestion, or a compliment, we are committed to resolving your concerns promptly, fairly, and transparently.
We confirm receipt and issue a unique Complaint Reference Number — your ticket for everything that follows.
02
Review & investigation
Days 1 – 7
Your complaint is assessed and routed to the relevant department. We may reach out for additional context.
03
Resolution
7 – 14 working days
Most complaints close in this window. Complex matters get a written status update before the deadline lapses.
04
Feedback to you
On closure
A clear written response: findings, the action taken, and the resolution provided. No ambiguity.
Track your complaint
Already raised something? See where it stands — in real time.
Use the reference number we sent you on acknowledgement. We'll show you the current stage, the department holding it, and the expected close date.
Escalation process
Three rungs, in order — and we'll show you the way up.
Level 1Step 1 of 3
Internal escalation
Not satisfied with the first response? Request a review by senior management — a fresh set of eyes inside Apstar.
Level 2Step 2 of 3
Independent review
Escalate to the Sacco's Complaints Committee — independent of the team that handled the original ticket.
Level 3Step 3 of 3
External escalation
Still unresolved? Take it to the regulator. SASRA — the Sacco Societies Regulatory Authority — has the final say.

Member responsibilities
Four things from your side — they unlock everything from ours.
01
Accurate information
Complete, truthful details so we can investigate the right thing.
02
Submit promptly
The sooner we hear, the sooner we can fix it — fresh evidence helps.
03
Use official channels
Five clear paths above. They're monitored — DMs aren't.
04
Keep your reference
Your ticket number unlocks every follow-up faster.
Frequently asked
Five questions we hear most often.
01Is it free to submit a complaint?
Yes. Every channel is free of charge — submitting a complaint, escalating it, and tracking it cost nothing.
02Can I remain anonymous?
You can. The Suggestion Box channel is fully anonymous. Note that providing contact details helps us resolve your matter faster — but it's never required.
03How long does resolution take?
Most complaints close within 7 to 14 working days, depending on complexity. We acknowledge every ticket within 24 hours and update you in writing if the resolution will exceed the standard window.
04Will my complaint affect my standing as a member?
No. Apstar policy explicitly protects members from any retaliation tied to a complaint. Your standing, your loans, and your savings are unaffected.
05What if I want to escalate while my ticket is still open?
You can escalate at any point. Use the same reference number when you contact senior management or the Complaints Committee — they'll pick up the file with full history.
Data privacy & confidentiality
Your information stays your information.
Every complaint is handled in line with Kenya's data protection laws and Apstar Sacco's confidentiality policies. Access is need-to-know — full stop.
Encrypted in transit and at rest
Restricted to the assigned case officers
Retained per regulatory requirements only
