When you have fully completed the 3 steps of the internal complaints procedure above, you can take further steps. You can then request mediation or advice free of charge from the Geschilleninstantie Pensioenfondsen (a dispute-settlement body for pension funds).

But also: if completing the internal complaints procedure takes longer than 10 weeks or longer than 12 weeks after submitting the complaint, you can go directly to the Geschilleninstantie Pensioenfondsen.

You can always submit the complaint to the court. Please be aware that this involves costs.
