How can I complain about a project I've backed?

Updated over 2 months ago

Backers do not have a general right to a refund if they are dissatisfied with the way a project is being delivered or with the finished project, though you can raise concerns to Spacehive, which will take them into account when assessing whether the project has substantially changed or is likely to.

Making a complaint

To raise a complaint:

  • Include a link to the project

  • Explain the nature of your complaint

  • Specify how it relates to the crowdfunded project

What happens next

When you submit a complaint:

  • Our senior management team will review it

  • We'll respond within 48 hours

  • We aim to resolve issues within 5 working days

  • If unresolved, we'll provide details of an approved Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) provider

Important things to know

  • Complaints must be from project backers

  • Focus on issues with the crowdfunded project

  • General complaints about organisations or individuals cannot be processed

  • Complaints must relate to the specific project you backed
