European Commission – Online Dispute Resolution

The Online Dispute Resolution platform ‘ODR Platform’ was introduced by the European Commission on 15th February 2016. The online platform allows consumers to submit a complaint about a product or service bought online. All EU Member States are within scope of the ODR platform. If you’ve had a problem with something you’ve bought online, you can use their website to try to reach an out-of-court settlement.

If you are a policyholder based in an EU Member State you may be eligible to lodge a complaint using the ODR Platform. Follow the link below to take you to the ODR website to start the complaint process:
