VIDEO: First ever ‘designated complaint’ targets the scourge of ‘door-knock’ unsolicited selling
Consumer Action Law Centre is calling for a nationwide ban on unsolicited selling in the first ever designated ‘super’ complaint presented to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).
A designated complaint is a new power that allows complainants to raise an issue with the ACCC, which the ACCC is required to consider and come back with actions within 90 days.
Consumer Action CEO Stephanie Tonkin said she was thrilled to be presenting a designated complaint about an issue the consumer sector has been fighting for decades and that is still trending on the organisation’s frontline services.
