Organise a faulty goods dispute
Capture purchase details, when the fault appeared, and every contact with the seller in one place.
Facts & timeline checklist
- Seller / retailer name and how you bought (in store, website, marketplace).
- Purchase date, price paid, order or receipt number.
- What was bought and what is wrong — factual description of the fault.
- When you first noticed the problem.
- Each contact with the seller: date, channel, and response.
- Any returns, replacements, or refunds offered or refused (record what was said).
Evidence to label
- Receipt, order confirmation, or invoice.
- Photos or videos of the fault (dated if possible).
- Product description / listing as sold (screenshot or saved page).
- Emails, chat logs, or letters with the seller.
- Delivery notes or tracking if relevant to when it arrived.
