Consumer advice
Konsumentvägledning - English
If you have a problem with something you purchased and have a hard time coming to an agreement with the vendor, you have the right to receive assistance from a Consumer advisor.
Municipal Consumer advisors
Most municipalities in Sweden offer their residents consumer advice. The Consumer advisor in your municipality can give you advice on individual disputes and other financial matters. Consumer advisors work in close contact with The Swedish Consumer Agency.
