Complaints and objections

Complaints and objections

The neighbourhood team employees do their best every day to help you as best as possible. If you are satisfied with something, we would like to hear about it. But it can happen that things happen that you experience as incorrect or unjust. In that case, we would also like to talk to you to see if we can find a solution together.

Not satisfied? Let us know!

We believe it is important to continue to improve the services of the neighbourhood teams and to learn from what is not going well. If you are not satisfied, you can report this to us by means of a signal, complaint or objection. This can be done in various ways. Below you can read the various options.

Difference between a complaint and an objection

A complaint always relates to how you were treated. It can be about how you were treated and whether you were treated respectfully. Your complaint can also be about the accessibility of the neighbourhood team or the way in which you were offered support.

An objection is always directed against a decision. You may or may not have received a certain decision and disagree with it. You can object to this. You submit the objection to the municipality of Utrecht. An objection can always be submitted against decisions within six weeks.
