MSC Cruises (UK) Complaints

Always start here, in writing.

Ask About an ADR Scheme

We could not confirm a general ombudsman or ADR scheme for MSC Cruises (UK) from its own pages. If it cannot settle your complaint, ask it in writing which approved ADR provider it uses.

Your Card Provider

If you paid by card, Section 75 (credit card) or chargeback (debit card) may help.

Citizens Advice Consumer Service

Free advice. It can pass a report to Trading Standards.

Good to Know

Small things that make your complaint stronger.

The contact page gives no formal complaints procedure, response times or ADR scheme. Its booking terms mention ATOL and ABTA protection.
