Solicitor for Consumer Rights Law in Floriana

My flight departing from Malta International Airport was cancelled two days before departure due to what the airline called ‘operational reasons’. Instead of a cash refund, they are only offering a travel voucher valid for one year. I would rather have my money back. Can they force me to accept a voucher?

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?

I had dinner with friends at a restaurant in St Julian’s and when the bill came, there was an automatic 10 percent service charge added that was never mentioned on the menu or when we ordered. Are restaurants allowed to just add this without telling customers beforehand?

I ordered a laptop from an online store based in Malta and when the box arrived the casing was cracked along one corner. The seller is now claiming it must have happened during shipping and is refusing to replace it or refund me. I still have the original packaging and photos I took right after opening the box. What are my options here?

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 joined a gym in Sliema on what I thought was a monthly rolling membership, but three months in I found out the contract actually locks me in for 24 months with a heavy exit fee. Nobody explained this clearly when I signed up at the front desk. Can I get out of it?

I bought a sofa from a Maltese furniture website two weeks ago and paid in full. It has not been delivered yet but I changed my mind and want to cancel the order. The company is saying that because it was custom-coloured, cancellation is not possible. Is that legal?

I bought what was advertised as an authentic designer handbag through an online marketplace, paying through the platform’s checkout, but the item that arrived is clearly a counterfeit. The individual seller is not responding to messages anymore. What can I do, and does the marketplace itself have any responsibility?
