What Is a BISP Payment Complaint?

A BISP payment complaint is an official request submitted by a registered beneficiary when there is a problem with their Kafalat or related payment.
It allows BISP authorities to check your record, verify your eligibility, and fix payment errors so that the money reaches the right person. The system exists to protect poor families from delays, deductions, and fraud.
