I had a problem with a seller that didn't meet the delivery date for several weeks

I had a problem with a seller that would not comply with their own information to deliver a product, they took several weeks more than they said they would, and when I tried to cancel the order because it was too late (it was a present for Christmas, that then would not arrive before Christmas, it arrived weeks after), and at their website did not have the necessary information to return the product, something they did not communicate until also days after they ended up delivering the product.
The people that I talked to in the EVZ were not only polite but extremely helpful. They required all the information from the order and my communication with the seller, as well as some personal information related with the order, to be able to process my request.
They managed to get my money back, since the seller recognised the delays in the delivery.
The process is not fast, since EVZ is probably overloaded, but the kindness and professionality and will to help resolved my case.
Thanks again.

I am so thankful for the amazing help I received from my lawyer. I bought a dining table that looked fine at first, but the quality was so poor that after just two weeks it became bloated and unusable. The seller refused to refund my money, and I felt completely stuck. My lawyer handled everything with professionalism and determination, clearly explaining each step and fighting for my rights until I finally got my money back. I am beyond satisfied with the result and highly recommend them to anyone who needs a dedicated and reliable lawyer!

Unexpectedly good experience!

We were able to receive fast and useful support from one of the lawyers from ECC/ EVZ to handle our complaint about a refused refund towards a Dutch online travel booking platform. The overall process from the date we made the complaint to the date we received the refund from the Dutch platform did not take too long, and in between we received detailed explanation from the lawyer with clear suggestions and prompt updates on the progress. We would like to thank ECC/ EVZ again for their help.

Friendly, helpful, realistic, extremely competent

We paid in advance for a hire car, turned up and no car. The online car hire trawler said tough luck. After two months of writing to them, and getting total push backs, we found out about the Irish Competition and Consumer Commission, who gave us the contact information for the Europäisches Verbraucherzentrum Deutschland. The EVZ DE have been brilliant, working together with their colleagues in Ireland. Friendly, helpful, realistic, extremely competent. The car hire trawler suddenly admitted liability and paid the fee back. We are sure it is only due to the pressure from EVZ in DE and IRL that this happened. Thank you so much, EVZ!!!

Successful refund of requested amount

I had raised a claim with a European Company for a refund of an amount. The company was not responding for several weeks. The Europäisches Verbraucherzentrum Deutschland successfully assisted me in receiving the refund of the amount. I can highly recommend you to approach them if you have any consumer issues with companies based in the EU

Thank you so much for helping me resolve my issue with Lufthansa. I had lost hope as Lufthansa lost 6 of my luggages in 2022 August while returning home to Ireland.
Your service was very straight forward and i’m very happy with the outcome.
