12. Complaint Handling and Legal Enforcement Options

Consumers can submit their complaints regarding the product or the Seller’s activities through the following contact details:

  • Phone: +36209680907
  • Website: https://www.silvercrowngroup.com
  • Email: reception@silvercrowngroup.com

Consumers can communicate their complaints to the business either verbally or in writing, which relate to the conduct, activities, or omissions directly connected to the distribution or sale of goods to consumers by the business or persons acting on behalf of or for the benefit of the business.

The business is obliged to immediately investigate and, if necessary, remedy verbal complaints. If the consumer disagrees with the handling of the complaint or immediate investigation is not possible, the business must promptly record the complaint and its position on it, and provide a copy to the consumer in case of a verbal complaint made in person. For verbal complaints made via telephone or other electronic communication services, the business must send a substantive response within 30 days, in accordance with the requirements for written complaints. Otherwise, the business must proceed as follows for written complaints. The business must respond substantively in writing within 30 days of receipt of the written complaint, unless otherwise specified by directly applicable EU legislation. Shorter deadlines may be set by law, longer deadlines by statute. The business must justify its position rejecting the complaint. Verbal complaints made via telephone or other electronic communication services must be assigned a unique identification number.

The complaint record must include the following:

  1. Consumer’s name and address,
  2. Place, time, and method of submitting the complaint,
  3. Detailed description of the consumer’s complaint, list of documents and other evidence presented by the consumer,
  4. Business’s statement on the consumer’s complaint, if immediate investigation is possible,
  5. Signature of the person recording the complaint and, except for verbal complaints made via telephone or other electronic communication services, the consumer’s signature,
  6. Place and time of recording the complaint,
  7. Unique identification number for verbal complaints made via telephone or other electronic communication services.

The business must retain the complaint record and a copy of the response for five years and present them to the supervisory authorities upon request.

If the complaint is rejected, the business must inform the consumer in writing which authority or conciliation body they can initiate proceedings with, depending on the nature of the complaint. The information must also include the address, phone number, website, and mailing address of the competent authority or the conciliation body in the consumer’s place of residence or stay. The information must also cover whether the business uses the conciliation body procedure to resolve consumer disputes.

If the consumer dispute between the Seller and the consumer is not resolved during negotiations, the following legal enforcement options are available to the consumer: Consumer Protection Procedure

  • Complaint to consumer protection authorities. If the consumer perceives a violation of their consumer rights, they are entitled to file a complaint with the consumer protection authority competent in their place of residence. After evaluating the complaint, the authority decides on conducting the consumer protection procedure. The first-instance consumer protection tasks are performed by the metropolitan and county government offices competent in the consumer’s place of residence, the list of which can be found here: http://www.kormanyhivatal.hu.

Judicial Procedure

  • Judicial procedure. The client is entitled to enforce their claim arising from the consumer dispute in court within the framework of civil proceedings according to the provisions of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code and Act CXXX of 2016 on the Code of Civil Procedure.

Conciliation Body Procedure

  • You are informed that you can file a consumer complaint against us. If we reject your consumer complaint, you are entitled to turn to the Conciliation Body competent in your place of residence or stay: the condition for initiating the procedure is that the consumer directly attempts to resolve the disputed matter with the business. The procedure can be conducted by the conciliation body indicated in the consumer’s application instead of the competent body.

The business has a cooperation obligation in the conciliation body procedure. This includes the obligation to send a response to the conciliation body’s request and the obligation to appear before the conciliation body (“ensuring the participation of a person authorized to reach an agreement at the hearing”). If the business’s registered office or place of business is not registered in the county where the conciliation body operates, the business’s cooperation obligation extends to offering the possibility of written agreement according to the consumer’s request.

In case of violation of the above cooperation obligation, the consumer protection authority has jurisdiction, which, based on the legislative change, imposes mandatory fines for the business’s unlawful conduct, without the possibility of exemption. In addition to the Consumer Protection Act, the relevant provisions of the Act on Small and Medium Enterprises have also been amended, so fines will not be waived for small and medium enterprises either.

The amount of the fine for small and medium enterprises ranges from HUF 15,000 to HUF 500,000, while for businesses subject to the Accounting Act with annual net revenue exceeding HUF 100 million, it ranges from HUF 15,000 to 5% of the business’s annual net revenue, but not more than HUF 500 million. The introduction of mandatory fines aims to emphasize cooperation with conciliation bodies and ensure active participation of businesses in the conciliation body procedure.

The conciliation body has jurisdiction to resolve consumer disputes out of court. The conciliation body’s task is to attempt to reach an agreement between the parties to resolve the consumer dispute, and if unsuccessful, to make a decision to ensure the simple, quick, effective, and cost-efficient enforcement of consumer rights. The conciliation body provides advice on consumer rights and obligations upon request from the consumer or the business.

The conciliation body procedure is initiated upon the consumer’s request. The application must be submitted in writing to the chairperson of the conciliation body: the requirement for written form can be met by letter, telegram, telex, or fax, as well as any other means that allows the recipient to access the data addressed to them.

Long-term storage for an appropriate period and the display of stored data in unchanged form and content.

The application must include:

  1. The consumer’s name, place of residence or stay,
  2. The name, registered office, or affected place of business of the company involved in the consumer dispute,
  3. If the consumer requests jurisdiction from a conciliation body other than the competent one, the designation of the requested body,
  4. A brief description of the consumer’s position, supporting facts, and evidence,
  5. The consumer’s statement that they have directly attempted to resolve the disputed matter with the company involved,
  6. The consumer’s statement that no other conciliation body procedure has been initiated, no mediation procedure has started, no lawsuit has been filed, and no application for a payment order has been submitted,
  7. A proposal for the decision of the body,
  8. The consumer’s signature.

The application must be accompanied by the document or its copy (extract) that the consumer refers to as evidence, particularly the company’s written statement rejecting the complaint, or other written evidence available to the consumer regarding the attempted reconciliation.

If the consumer acts through an authorized representative, the authorization must be attached to the application.
