Muscat – The CPA stated that it had received a complaint from a consumer who had agreed with a commercial establishment to design and install doors for his home for a total of RO 1,200.
However, the company delayed the delivery of the doors and failed to complete the work in accordance with the contract signed between both parties, in addition to showing reluctance in responding to the consumer’s demands. This prompted the consumer to file a complaint with the Directorate, which took the necessary actions to address the issue and facilitate an amicable settlement.

From a resident of the governorate who had contracted with the establishment to design and install doors for their home, with a total agreed cost of RO 1,200.
