Frequently asked questions
How do I complain to Apple?
The most effective way is a formal written complaint letter that cites the specific consumer protection laws that apply to your situation. Verbal complaints are easy to ignore — a letter citing Digital Markets Act (EU) creates a legal record Apple must respond to.
Can I get my money back from Apple?
Yes. Under Digital Markets Act (EU), you have legal rights when Apple wrongfully charges you or refuses a refund. If Apple ignores your complaint, you can escalate to Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
What if Apple ignores my complaint?
Escalate with a Final Warning letter that references your intent to file a complaint with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and pursue small claims court. ComplainAI generates this escalation letter automatically.
