In force for about a month, and surrounded by major discussions about its real effectiveness, VAT Zero continues to cause a stir, especially among consumers, who have been noticing irregular situations in the application of the measure. The data comes from the "Portal da Compleixa" (Complaint Portal), which has already received more than 200 complaints in this area. 

The entity reveals: "between 18th April and 15th May, more than two hundred complaints were registered in relation to price increases and the implementation of the zero VAT measure - a growth of 107 per cent in the number of complaints, if we compare this with the same period in the previous year, when complaints about price practices generated just 95 complaints". 

This has been happening due to alleged irregularities practised in shops, particularly due to consumers' lack of awareness of the differences in the value of the product with zero VAT, as well as several complaints about similar prices on the same product, before and after the measure was applied. 

The registration of more complaints has occurred in the categories pastries and cafeteria and supermarkets, and the products with more mention in complaints are meat and bread.
