I paid online for tickets to an event in Malta through the organiser’s own website. The payment went through and I got a confirmation email, but the tickets themselves never arrived and now nobody replies to my emails or calls. What can I actually do to get my money back?

This looks like a straightforward case of a trader failing to supply goods or services that were paid for, which falls squarely within the protections of the Consumer Affairs Act, Chapter 378 of the Laws of Malta. Start by sending one final written demand, by email and, if you have an address, by registered post, giving a short deadline to deliver the tickets or issue a full refund, and keep a copy for your records. If you paid by card, contact your bank about a chargeback, since unauthorised or undelivered goods and services are common grounds for reversing a card payment. In parallel, you can report the trader to the Malta Competition and Consumer Affairs Authority (MCCAA), which monitors unfair commercial practices, and if the amount involved justifies it, file a claim with the Consumer Claims Tribunal to formally recover your money. Keep all payment confirmations and correspondence as evidence throughout.

I placed one order on a Maltese online shop and my bank statement shows I was charged twice for the exact same amount on the same day. I only received one item. Customer service keeps saying they will 'look into it' but three weeks have passed with no refund.

A salesperson came to my house in Mosta unannounced and, after a long pitch, I ended up signing a contract for a water filtration system I did not really want. I signed the same evening under pressure and paid a deposit by card. Two days later I regretted it. Can I still cancel?

I bought a used car from a dealer in Birkirkara and within a week the engine started making a loud knocking noise. A mechanic told me it needs major work. The dealer says used cars are sold as-is and won't help. Is that actually true under Maltese law?

I ordered a dining table from a shop in Qormi and paid a deposit, with the balance due on delivery. The delivery date has been pushed back three times over three months, each time with a vague excuse. I am starting to think the order was never actually placed. What are my rights?

Landlord kept my deposit citing ‘wear and tear’ as damage

1 answer
30.06.2026
I rented an apartment in Sliema for two years and moved out leaving it in reasonable condition, but the landlord is refusing to return my deposit, listing normal scuff marks and a slightly faded curtain as 'damage'. Is this something the Consumer Claims Tribunal can even help with, or is this a different process entirely?
