Editorial complaints are complaints about the content of BBC output.

How to complain

If you think the BBC has not complied with its own Editorial Guidelines, you have the right to complain to the BBC Executive. You can find details of how to complain on the BBC Complaints website.

How to appeal

If you are not happy with your response from the BBC Executive you can appeal to the Trust. You can find out how to do this in this document, which explains the full editorial complaints and appeals procedure:
