Rifiuto la riparazione e voglio il rimborso.

I refuse the repair and want a refund.

Pronunciación

'Rifiuto' — ri-FYU-to. Three syllables. 'Riparazione' — ri-pa-ra-TSYO-ne.

Cuándo usarla

Under Italian and EU law, if a repair cannot be carried out within a reasonable time (30 days is often cited), or if it would cause significant inconvenience, you can demand a replacement or refund instead.

Qué significa

'Rifiutare' (to refuse) is a strong verb that asserts your legal right. In Italian consumer law (Codice del Consumo, art. 130), the consumer can choose between repair and replacement, and if neither is possible within a reasonable time, can demand a price reduction or full refund.

Nota cultural

Italian law does not define 'reasonable time' precisely, but industry practice treats 30 days as the limit. Courts have upheld consumer rights for shorter periods when the product was essential (e.g., a refrigerator, phone).
