Delay in finalisation of my return

I submitted my 2015 tax return in November 2015 with supporting documents, and to date it is still in audit with no queries raised. Who do I complain about the delay in my finalisation of my tax return? Could the delay be due to the fact that monies are owed to me.

Please call 0800 00 7277 to find out if you can escalate the case for the delay in the refund being paid to you.

I have escalated my query over 21 days ago and as yet I have received no
response from them. What should I do now.
