Sometimes things go wrong and food that is sold is not acceptable to the customer.
Where there is a potential public health risk, our food and safety team will investigate your complaint.
Your complaint may be about:
- unfit or grossly contaminated food
- foods containing foreign bodies, for example metal or glass
- hygiene standards at a food premises
- foods which may have caused food poisoning
- foods which have passed their 'use by' date
In cases where your food hygiene complaint is not a public health risk, you may be able to resolve it by contacting the owner of the food business yourself and discussing the complaint with them.
They may offer you a refund and/or carry out their own internal investigation.
We will also help carry out investigations into possible food poisoning incidents.
