Work out whether you can cancel.

The checker separates distance sales, off-premises contracts, shop purchases, goods, services and digital content. It also checks the main statutory exclusions before giving you a route.

Live law layer: where the result relies on a specific provision, ConsumerWise checks that official provision against legislation.gov.uk. The decision logic remains reviewed ConsumerWise guidance, so a live source failure never breaks the tool.
