If we do something well or if something goes wrong, we want to know!
Why have a customer feedback procedure?
The Council tries to provide high quality services to the people of the Dudley borough. There are times when things are done really well, but there may be times when things go wrong and you are left unhappy or dissatisfied with the service provided. In both cases, we want to hear from you and this helps you do this.
