About this listen
Paul Lewis, financial journalist “Buy this book. And next time a shop or bank or holiday firm fails you, take it off the shelf, find out what to do, and complain. Always write (“I don’t do phone calls”), quote the law they’ve broken (each section begins with a thorough guide), state clearly what you want (everything plus compensation), and end the letter with your next step if you don’t get it (right up to court action). How to Complain is by turns homely and thorough. Helen Dewdney has complained about every kind of poor service and, from what she says, always wins. She knows precisely what her rights are and how to get them. Her guiding principle is never take yes for an answer. If you want £100 compensation and they offer £50 write back and demand £200. How to complain is in itself a model. The title is accurate. And it delivers what it promises. It should strike fear into any firm that doesn’t. And make them change before we have to write that letter.”
Rob Rinder Barrister, presenter and columnist Helen Dewdney's How to Complain is a masterclass in asserting your rights with wit, precision and just the right amount of righteous fury. It's the book every consumer didn't know they desperately needed - until now!"
David McClelland Consumer / Technology Presenter & Journalist “Too timid to assert your rights? Too shy to complain? Don’t be.

Packed with practical advice, handy complaint letter templates and real-life success stories, ‘How to Complain’ has quickly become an essential reference in our house.”
