How to fill in this form
Read the notes on the form – they explain what to do and how to fill in the form.
After you’ve submitted the form
You’ll receive a response after your query has been looked into fully:
- if we find that we do not need to take any further action we’ll explain why
- if we need to take further action we’ll confirm what we’ve done and the effect this has had on your agreement.
If you have another query that you have not already told RPA about, fill in and submit a new query form.
