Consumer
When you buy goods or services the law gives you consumer rights that protect you from being treated unfairly by a trader.
Consumer advice covers all sorts of areas of daily life, including the following:
- cars and other vehicles
- building and home improvements
- phone, internet and computer services
- travel, leisure and food
- energy, water and sewerage
- post
- financial and professional services
You may have received poor service or you may want to switch utility suppliers or cancel a contract.
CARF can help you understand and exercise your rights.
