National Consumer Helpline (NCH)

This Mobile App is an alternate way to register consumer related grievances in the portal https://consumerhelpline.gov.in. The website was launched by the Department of Consumer Affairs to create awareness, advise and redress consumer grievances and act as a central registry for lodging consumer grievances. As per the Consumer Protection Act, 1986, consumers can approach Consumer Fora at the District, State and National level for dispute resolution. Though all efforts will be made to address grievances made on the portal, if the grievance is not redressed to the full satisfaction, a consumer has choice to approach the appropriate Consumer Fora.

An aggrieved consumer can register grievance by either calling the toll free number 1800-11-4000 or 14404 to talk to an agent to register or register online on the portal or through the Mobile App in which case the consumer gets an userid and password to lodge grievance.

On the portal or through Mobile App,

Step 1. For onetime registration, consumer is required to click on the signup giving details required and verifies through his/her email. The User id and password are created.

Step2. Using this user id and password, consumer enters into the portal and fills in required details of grievance attaching necessary documents (if available).

This Mobile App has the following additional features:-

(a) consumer awareness material under the link Consumer Knowledge Base.
(b) Addresses of various Consumer Fora are also available under the link Consumer Forum Contact Details.
(c) Various useful sites are linked under Important Links.

Any grievance received entered in the portal and a unique docket number is generated and given. Grievances received are sent to the concerned company / agency / regulator / ombudsman, as the case maybe, for speedy redress. Action taken is updated on real time basis by the concerned agency. As a follow up action, these agencies are reminded at stipulated interval.

The status of the complaint can be tracked through the Mobile App under the link “Track your complaint”. Status of complaints are also communicated via automated emails.

This app is not useful at all. I raised a request. It showed the status as "Not processed" for 3 days. No one contacted me regarding my request and no one helped through this app. I could not even upload supporting documents through this app.

Pathetic. No progress in complaint filed. Not a single number out of the three made available on the app is working.

Ega. D. R. Jan 29, 2022     

One of the worst application I used till date, I am unable check the status of my complain once I submitted it, its always showing failed to get response, try again later. And when I going to contact the district forum no. Which was provided in the app and got to know that it's a invalid no. Let me know one thing that, why you people providing such type of app before verifying its smooth running. And google also has to check these apps thorrowly before providing it on play store.

They do have a long way to go when it comes to the user-friendliness of the app and they do take a week or two to respond, but from my experience I can say that they are doing a good job, they are resolving people's problems. Before this app, we had no convinient way of fighting against any company or business organisation. They have helped me twice with different complaints, they did take a lot of time to respond and the app is frustrating at times but at the end they did resolve my issues.
