Go to the shop or trader with all your evidence. Calmly explain the problem. Some shops will sort the problem out straight away. Show them the evidence. Tell the trader what you want them to do about it. Be firm but stay calm. Try not to get into an argument.
Listen to the trader’s explanation
Listen to what the trader tells you and compare it to what our factsheet and website says. It might be that you have misunderstood the situation or the trader might be telling you something that isn’t true.
Writing a complaint letter
If you don’t have any luck when you go to the shop take all your evidence home with you and write a complaint letter to the trader. Explain the problem again including:
what product or service you bought
how much it cost
where and when you purchased it
what the problem is
what you want done to fix the problem
when you want a reply by.
