Know Your Rights! Advice
from Trading Standards How
to deal with doorstep sellers Doorstep
selling is when someone sells you goods or services in your home or on
your doorstep. It can be convenient to buy on the doorstep - but you
can be pressured into buying something you do not want or that is not good
value for money by a salesperson using clever selling tactics. If this
happens you are not always protected by the law. The
Office of Fair Trading has produced a new leaflet called Your doorstep,
your decision, which describes some of these psychological tactics and
gives advice on how to deal with them.
It also tells you your legal rights.
