In The Watchdog Survival Guide, Matt Allwright will help you to help yourself amid the minefield of modern consumer rights and fraudsters, offering practical advice on how to sidestep pitfalls in all areas of life. Each chapter is built around relatable hurdles we all face - renting a flat, buying a car, securing our online data, booking a dream holiday and much more.

Packed with useful tips, myth busters and case studies, The Watchdog Survival Guide will leave you feeling empowered and save you some pennies along the way.
