Minus these complaints, the number of claims until the end of November had risen by four per cent, informed the Alliance of the consumer protection organizations on Monday.

number 1 on the trouble list 2018 (6035 cases) were for delays in delivery, defects and warranty issues around completed consumer contracts. These accounted for 29 percent of inquiries and complaints.

These two areas were identified in 2017 for around 60 percent of the requests. (fal/sda)
