How can I file a consumer complaint against a service provider?

If you have suffered due to deficient services, unfair trade practices, or negligence by a service provider, you can file a complaint under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. This includes disputes involving banks, insurance companies, hospitals, telecom operators, builders, travel agencies, and many other service providers.

Before initiating legal proceedings, send a written complaint to the service provider describing the issue and requesting appropriate relief. Preserve invoices, agreements, emails, messages, receipts, and any other supporting documents. If the matter is not resolved, you may file a complaint before the appropriate Consumer Commission having jurisdiction over the dispute.

The Commission may award compensation, direct the service provider to rectify the deficiency, refund the amount paid, or grant any other suitable relief depending on the facts of the case.

A properly documented complaint significantly improves the likelihood of obtaining effective relief.
