The idea of undertaking 2minutes2claim comes from a personal experience; it all started when, one week after leaving a shared apartment, I received an email stating that my deposit would be fully kept by the real estate agency, for an invalid reason. I felt betrayed and frustrated to be part of the long list of victims being scammed by their landlords. Above all, I felt defenseless to recover this deposit, and I was certainly not willing to seek help from costly lawyers. Therefore, I managed, by motivation and persuasion, to recover this money by my own means. And I thought; what if I did that for other people? 
I then noticed that it is usually really difficult for dissatisfied consumers to be heard. Although their claims are primarily eligible for compensation, clients do not complete the process. I believe reasons of not going through the claim processes are often related to the lack of time, laziness or administrative phobia. And on the other hand, companies, sometimes unaware of the dissatisfaction caused to their customers, would be willing to offer compensation to avoid bad publicity. 2minutes2claim aims to take over from A to Z the claim procedure and would offer its services to customers and to companies and encourage dissatisfied consumers to delegate their complaints in a few quick steps. Both will be winners; the customer because he does not have the time or the know-how to make properly the claim request, and the company because it wishes to satisfy its clients.

 2minutes2claim will support different types of claims, which will belong to two main categories: Travel and Housing.
2minutes2claim is finally what consumers and companies have always been waiting for: delegating the process of creating and following a full complaint procedure.
