Escalating a du complaint: the correct order
The regulator only helps after the operator has had its chance, so sequence matters: complaint to du with a reference number, then the escalation window, then the complaint to the regulator with that reference attached. Doing it in order gets a faster answer than skipping straight to escalation.

Do this, in order
- File with du first (app, 155, or email) and record the reference number.
- State the remedy you want and the deadline - refund, credit, or fix - vague complaints get vague replies.
- If unresolved, submit to the regulator with the operator reference and your evidence attached.
- Keep the line paid while disputing, or the ticket becomes a disconnection case instead.
- Send us the reference on WhatsApp and we will help you assemble the evidence pack in the format that gets picked up.
