Ignored complaints

Retailer ignoring your refund request? Build a clearer follow-up.

If a retailer ignores you, the next message should be organised, dated and easy to escalate if there is still no response.

Do not just keep chasing informally

Repeated short messages can become hard to track. Instead, prepare one clear follow-up that summarises the purchase, the problem, previous contact attempts and the outcome you want.

Refund Kit creates a structured complaint draft and a deadline tracker so you can show what happened.

Give a written deadline

Set a reasonable written response deadline and save proof of sending. Include previous dates you contacted the retailer and attach the key evidence again if needed.

The generated action plan includes a practical response window and final send checklist.

Prepare an escalation record

If the retailer still ignores you, your next route may involve a card provider, ADR scheme, ombudsman or another relevant body depending on the facts. A clean contact record makes that easier.

Refund Kit includes a CSV contact tracker and backup card-provider wording where relevant.

Keep the tone firm but factual

Avoid insults, threats or exaggeration. A calm, evidence-led complaint is easier for a support team, bank or external reviewer to understand.
