About Course

When you buy online, by phone or by mail order from a business, you usually have a legal right to cancel and get your money back, even if nothing is wrong. This course explains the 14-day cooling-off period for goods and services, how refunds and return postage work, the important exceptions, and how this differs from faulty goods and shop purchases.
