Consumer Forum Filing
A consumer forum is the specialised body where you can formally file a complaint against a seller or service provider and seek refunds, replacement, or compensation. A verified advocate helps you choose the correct forum based on the value of your claim, drafts and files a properly structured complaint with supporting documents, and represents you through the hearings to press for relief.
