Consumer Complaints


The Bureau of Consumer Protection accepts complaints relating to a variety of consumer issues. Wisconsin residents who have a complaint concerning a business in or out of Wisconsin, or anyone outside the state if the complaint involves a Wisconsin business, may file a complaint by completing the below online complaint form.

Important: In order for us to help you with this complaint, please provide copies of important documents, such as the sales receipt, repair order, warranty, and/or cancelled check as soon as possible. Please omit or mark out any confidential or personal information (e.g., checking account number, credit card number, Social Security Number, date of birth, etc.) if it is not relevant to your complaint prior to submitting the information. You can upload documents that relate to your complaint after submitting this form.

After receiving your complaint, Consumer Protection will contact you and the business about the complaint; typically within 1 week of receiving your complaint. Although we cannot force a business to resolve a complaint, our contact with the company often results in a solution. Because of the volume of complaints we receive, it may take up to 90 days to complete the complaint process.
