1. Although your operator will normally deal with complaints, passengers might contact the police or TfL directly. They might also contact TfL if they are not satisfied with the way the operator has dealt with their complaint. In these cases, TfL may carry out its own investigation. If TfL does investigate a complaint that relates to you, we will provide you with the details of the complaint and ask for your comments. As soon as you have had the opportunity to respond to the complaint and TfL has made any other necessary enquiries, TfL will tell you the result of that investigation. Remember, TfL can only make a decision based on the information we receive, so it is important you respond to all our requests for information. If a serious complaint is made against you, or if there are a number of complaints, or there appears to be a pattern of poor behaviour and all the ways to improve your behaviour have been tried but have failed, TfL may have to suspend or revoke your licence.
