Grounded in current UK law
Can I Complain?
§

Wronged by a company? Owed money you can't get back? Or just left with that feeling that something wasn't right, and you should have pushed back? Tell us what happened in plain English, and we'll show you exactly where you stand.

Checking is free. If the law is on your side, your formal letter is £2.99, and letters to your landlord about repairs are free. That's the whole price list. (We email your letter the moment it's drafted, keep what you tell us only long enough to deliver it, then it's deleted for good. Your complaint stays your business.)

§ The law itself, cited.

Every answer rests on current UK statute, quoted word for word. You can read exactly what we read.

§ Only the questions that matter.

We ask for the few details that decide what you're owed, and nothing more.

§ Straight about limits.

If your situation isn't one we can help with, we say so plainly, and we'll point you towards free help, like Citizens Advice. Never towards a bill.

How it works about two minutes
  1. 1
    Tell us what happened, in your own words. No forms, no legal language. The way you'd tell it across a kitchen table.
  2. 2
    We ask the few questions that matter. Usually three. Small details can open up whole new parts of the law, strengthening where you stand and sometimes increasing what you're owed. We'll always tell you why we're asking.
  3. 3
    We check the law as it stands today. Not a blog post, not a forum thread, and definitely not made up. The current statute, quoted word for word so you can check us, then broken down in plain English so you can see exactly how each clause applies to your situation.
  4. 4
    You get a straight answer. And if the law is on your side, we'll draft your formal letter: a letter of claim, a demand for payment, a parking challenge, a formal notice to a neighbour, whichever your case calls for. Firm, precise, citing the exact provisions, reserving your rights, worded the way formal letters should be. The kind of letter that gets taken seriously the first time, because it reads like it cost a great deal more than it did. If the law isn't with you, we'll say so, for nothing.
The kinds of problems we cover
  • Refunds & faulty goods
  • Cancelled & delayed flights
  • Landlords, deposits & repairs
  • Work done badly
  • Deliveries that never came
  • Subscriptions that won't cancel
  • Package holidays gone wrong
  • Cars, garages & warranties
  • Money you're owed for work you did
  • Lost, damaged & delayed baggage
  • Noisy neighbours & nuisance
  • Estate agents, when selling
  • Private parking charges
  • Your data: spam, breaches & ignored requests
  • …and a good deal more

Something else? Tell us anyway. The law reaches further than most people think, and if yours is genuinely outside our ground, we'll say so and point you somewhere better. That's a promise that costs us money and earns your trust, which is the right way round.

Why not just ask an AI? the honest answer
  1. 1
    Chatbots cite law from memory, and memory invents things. In our own testing, the model once reached for a section of an Act it had never been given. Our guard caught it and forced a rewrite; a chatbot has no guard. Every citation here is served from the official text, or struck out before you see it.
  2. 2
    Their knowledge froze on training day. Ours stands on the statute book as it reads today, fetched from legislation.gov.uk, with repealed sections cut, not-yet-in-force sections excluded, and a weekly check that tells us the moment Parliament moves.
  3. 3
    Chatbots answer everyone the same. The law doesn't. The Consumer Rights Act doesn't cover business purchases, several housing Acts stop at the English border, and a private seller owes you less than a shop does. We check who you are, where you are and who you're up against before a single section is cited.
  4. 4
    Our numbers are calculated, never guessed. Flight bands come from route arithmetic, deadlines from date arithmetic, statutory interest from the rules themselves. A chatbot's numbers are often right, which is worse than always wrong, because you can't tell which day you got.
  5. 5
    Everything we say can be checked. Every citation links to the government's own copy of the law. Anyone can generate a confident letter. We generate one you can check.
  6. 6
    Which is why you can actually send it. The real worry with pasting a chatbot's words into a dispute is what happens when the other side checks, and they will: invented, out of date, or not applicable to you. Everything above exists so that can't happen here. You check free, and if the law is on your side we draft your formal letter, cited, dated, deadline set, and email it straight to your inbox, ready to send. No copying, no rewriting, no wondering.

None of this makes the big AIs bad at what they're for. They're the wrong tool for this: your case, today's law, checkable words, and a letter that lands. That's what we built instead.

The small print, up front We're not a law firm and this isn't legal advice, and we're entirely independent: no affiliation with Citizens Advice, GOV.UK or any government body, or with any law firm or claims company. We show you what the law says, in its own words, and help you put your complaint in writing properly. Questions? contact@canicomplain.com

The material facts

The details that
decide your claim.

You may have mentioned some of this in your story already. We still ask you to enter it again here, in these exact fields, so your assessment rests on precise, confirmed facts and not on our reading of your words. It only takes a moment, and it is what keeps your result accurate and up to date.

Confirming the facts

Before we rely on this,
is it right?

As we understand it

Where you stand

Our honest read.

Your position

Our honest read of your position, not a promise of the outcome. The full reasoning, and the law it rests on, is set out below.
The law we're relying on, in its own words

Put it to them formally.

We'll draft your formal letter of claim: addressed, dated, citing the exact law above, your rights reserved, with a clear reply-by date. And it closes by putting them on formal notice of what you can do next if they ignore it, so they know this doesn't end with silence.

By paying, you ask us to draft and deliver your letter immediately and agree to our terms. Because it's delivered straight away, the usual 14-day cancellation right won't apply once you've received it. Your legal rights if anything is wrong with the letter are unaffected.
Comes with the reply-by date as a calendar file, so your own phone nudges you if they haven't responded in time.

Drafted, cited, ready to send.

Setting out the facts…

      

Before you send it: fill in the blanks, your name, your address, and any order or reference number, so they can find your records straight away.

Saved. Your calendar will nudge you the day before the deadline. Worth a quick glance now to check it's in. And if they haven't replied by then, your letter has already told them your next step, and it's yours to take.

The small print, up front This is guidance to help you understand your rights, not formal legal advice, and we're entirely independent of Citizens Advice, government and any law firm. Everything we cite links to the official law so you can verify it yourself.
