How to submit a complaint with Occom
If your complaint about Occom is really about claim delays, claim disputes, and poor communication, use the official contact form, the complaints policy, and the hardship support page first and keep the written trail together.
- Start in the right place: Use the official contact form, the complaints policy, and the hardship support page for Occom so the complaint lands with a team that can actually review it.
- Anchor the facts: Include account details, bills, screenshots, speed tests, and prior emails and explain what went wrong with both internet and telecommunications services, with a business focus on.
- Name the complaint theme: Say if the issue is about claim delays, claim disputes, and poor communication so it is routed properly.
- Ask for a concrete outcome: Spell out whether you want a bill correction, refund, service fix, credit, or a clear written explanation.
- Keep it on one thread: Ask for a written reference or acknowledgement and keep all follow-up in the same complaint trail.
Once Occom logs a complaint about claim delays, claim disputes, and poor communication, the usual pattern is acknowledgment, review, and then a written answer.
- Acknowledgement: You should get a case number, email, or some written sign that Occom has logged the complaint.
- Review: The business will usually look at account details, bills, screenshots, speed tests, and prior emails and the part of the service tied to the complaint.
- Response: A useful answer should explain what Occom found and whether it will offer a bill correction, refund, service fix, credit, or a clear written explanation.
- Push-back if needed: If the reply is vague or misses the key point, answer on the same thread and restate the unresolved issue in plain language.

Occom complaints submitted through Ajust
Do not let a weak Occom response turn the issue into a fresh complaint. Escalate the same chronology instead.
- Escalate internally first: Ask Occom to move the complaint to a manager, specialist complaints team, or formal review path.
- Keep the same chronology: Do not restart from scratch. Re-send the timeline, evidence, and the outcome you still want.
- Move externally when the internal process stalls: If the business still does not deal with it properly, the practical next step is usually the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman after the provider's complaints process.
If Occom does not resolve a complaint about claim delays, claim disputes, and poor communication, there is usually an external path beyond the business.
- Main external path: the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman after the provider's complaints process
- Why this route matters: ACMA may be relevant for broader communications or compliance issues, but TIO is the main consumer escalation path.
- Before you escalate: Keep your full Occom complaint trail together, including receipts, screenshots, emails, and any written responses.
