What other scenarios fall under Buyer protection?
There are two other situations in which you can use and benefit from the Buyer protection service:1 - When sellers break their promises, either related to:
● transaction or after-sales services, such as a failure to follow up with the warranty on your order as promised or as required by any relevant laws and regulations
● or logistics and delivery services, such as asking you to pay additional shipping costs after your order's has been placed, or not sending your order using the agreed shipping method and/or route, logistics services, express delivery companies, etc.
2 - When there is a case of unacceptable behavior from sellers that could affect your rights as a shopper, and/or the use of abusive language during any communication with you.
