Consumer rights: build the facts before choosing a route
Start by identifying what was bought, who sold it, what was promised and what remedy you actually want. A consumer complaint route is not the same thing as a court claim, so keep the OCPB complaint process separate from any later civil remedy.
Questions that change the route
- • Seller identity and whether the purchase was made as a consumer
- • Written warranty, advertisement, receipt and any promised return or repair terms
- • Whether the issue is non-delivery, misleading information, defective goods, poor service or a billing/refund dispute
- • Whether another specialist regulator, platform dispute process or court route is more appropriate than OCPB
Evidence to organise
- • Receipt, invoice or payment record
- • Advertisement, product page, warranty and terms
- • Photos or video of the defect or service problem
- • Messages showing the complaint, requested remedy and seller response
Move the issue forward carefully
- 1State the problem and requested remedy in writing
- 2Use the OCPB complaint channel when the dispute fits its consumer role
- 3Preserve evidence before returning, repairing or disposing of goods
- 4Check the competent court and current procedure before starting a civil claim
