Our worked method

Report a problem or ask the DGCCRF a question?

Report
Describe an issue involving a business.
Question
Ask the French DGCCRF for guidance.
  1. Separate observed facts, the requested outcome and legal questions.
  2. Choose the matching route and prepare a timeline with useful references.
  3. Review which contact details are shared and keep track of received replies.

Fictional example: an order marked delivered has not arrived. The report records the date, order reference and exchange with the seller; a separate question asks which step to take next.

Your useful record: Timeline, references and replies, without copying personal contact details into a public notebook.

A report guarantees neither a business reply nor a refund.
