Consumer complaint 

We would always advise that in the event of a complaint the first contact is made with the trader by you - preferably in the form a letter (with proof of delivery). If that has not worked, if you are located in the UK, Citizens advice (new window) will give you advice. From outside the UK contact the UK European Consumer Centre (new window).

Other redress 

E.g. about noise, pollution, etc. Also should one licence holder complain about another.
