Consumer Protection

The CPU enforces civil and criminal laws that prohibit fraud or deception in consumer transactions, which can range from purchasing a cell phone from a national company to engaging a local contractor to repair your home. They include sales that occur online, over the phone or in person. The CPU also enforces laws related to data privacy, price-gouging in times of emergency and charitable solicitations. Lastly, the CPU administers Oklahoma’s Do-Not-Call Registry.

File a complaint with the Office of the Attorney General by downloading this form. Complete the form and email it to ConsumerProtection@oag.ok.gov with "Complaint" in the subject line. You may also attach any relevant documentation to your email. For more information, see https://www.oag.ok.gov/consumer-protection.

Please complete all portions of the complaint form and provide as detailed of a narrative as possible to describe the circumstances surrounding the transaction at issue. Please include additional pages if necessary. If you have supporting documentation that is relevant to your allegations, please include copies (not originals) with your complaint.

Your complaint will be reviewed by a consumer specialist and then forwarded to the business/individual you have named in the complaint. The business/individual will have 10 days to respond to the complaint. If the business/individual responds, our office will forward that response back to you to allow for additional response. Often, this written mediation process will resolve the complaint in a manner acceptable to both parties. When no resolution is reached, we will then determine whether the allegations warrant an investigation by our investigators and staff attorneys, or whether the complaint should be closed and the consumer advised to seek private legal advice.

For information about your complaint, please call our office at 1-833-681-1895 and ask to speak to a consumer specialist. If your call is sent to voicemail, please leave a message. Your call will be returned within 24 hours. If you have a file number, please reference that when leaving a message so we may have the proper information to give you. Alternatively, you may also send us an email to ConsumerProtection@oag.ok.gov or letter to 313 NE 21st St Oklahoma City, OK 73105. 

Yes.  If the complaint is outside the jurisdiction of the CPU, we will get where it needs to go. Do not let doubts about the amount of money you spent, the time since the transaction occurred, where it occurred or any other factor deter you from filing a complaint.

You may register for the Oklahoma “Do Not Call” list on our website. However, registration for the Oklahoma “Do Not Call” list does not prevent every type of unsolicited call—statutory exceptions are listed on the registration page. Additionally, the “Do Not Call” list does not prevent scam calls or other types of illegal robocalls and robotexts.

The national “Do Not Call Registry” is available at https://www.donotcall.gov/.
