Problems with goods or services

Our principal role is to enforce legislation designed to protect both consumers and traders. Initial advice to consumers who are in dispute with a trader is the responsibility of the Citizens Advice Consumer Helpline.

  • For advice or to report an issue with a trader please contact the Citizens' Advice Consumer Helpline by calling 0808 223 1133.
  • For advice or to report a scam call 0808 2505050

We generally only become involved if the dispute is complex or if it reveals a breach of the criminal law. We give priority to vulnerable consumers.
