Webchat with Commissioner Kuneva
Topic: Consumer protection during your vacation
On 14 May at 16.30-18.00 CET, EU Consumer Commissioner Meglena Kuneva will host one of her regular webchats online. This time she will discuss the consumer issues affecting you which are particularly relevant during the summer period.
- Have you recently bought a timeshare and are having second thoughts?
- Have you ever won a "free" holiday abroad and ended up paying for it? Make sure your prize really is free, and find out from Commissioner Kuneva about other unfair commercial practices that you might fall victim to.
- How often do you visit a budget airline website and come away with only the ticket you wanted to purchase? Are you fed up with inadvertently buying extra items, like insurance, you don't need?
- Are you planning a package holiday this summer? Chat to Commissioner Kuneva about your consumer rights and don't get taken for a ride by a cowboy operator.
If you answered "yes" to any of those questions, or are interested in finding out more, then join us to talk to the EU Consumer Commissioner Meglena Kuneva live online. She will tell you what she and her team are doing for you as an EU citizen and consumer within all of these areas and more.
You can join the Webchat here from 16.30 to 18.00 CET
You will be able to ask the Commissioner questions in any of the following languages:FR, DE, EN, IT, ES, CS, PL, BG and get an answer in the same language.
