In general, the procedure is as follows: the customer asks a third party, impartial, to intervene as an intermediary between them and the trader who is the target of their complaint. The intermediary may suggest a solution to their complaint, impose a solution on both parties, or bring the parties together to find a solution.<\/p><p>Perhaps you know the concept of alternative dispute resolution by another name: &#8216;mediation,&#8217; &#8216;conciliation,&#8217; &#8216;arbitration,&#8217; or &#8216;competent committee in the scope of consumer disputes.&#8217; Alternative dispute resolution is generally less expensive, less formal, and faster than the judicial process.<\/p><h3>European Union Website<\/h3><p>The European Union has created a website to support consumers in filing their complaints about any disputes they are involved in. In this context, we provide all the information for you to exercise your right to complain to an official, third-party, impartial entity (dispute resolution entity) that will help you resolve the dispute in question.<\/p><p>So, if you were dissatisfied with the purchase of a good or service, or with the solution we presented to resolve the situation, you can access this official website and present your complaint at:<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/webgate.ec.europa.eu\/odr\/main\/?event=main.home.show\" target=\"_new\">https:\/\/webgate.ec.europa.eu\/odr\/main\/?event=main.home.show<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION FOR CONSUMERS In case of a dispute, the consumer can resort to the following Alternative Dispute Resolution entity for Consumer Disputes: Algarve CIMAAL (Center for Information, Mediation, and Arbitration of Consumer Conflicts of Algarve) Website: www.consumidoronline.pt Address: Av\u00aa. 5 de Outubro, n\u00ba. 55, R\/C Dt\u00ba. 8000-075 Faro, Portugal&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4880"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4880"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4880\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4885,"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4880\/revisions\/4885"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/casadopolvosantaluzia.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
