The approach method that will be used is normative juridical. This research is descriptive analytical in nature and the results of data processing are then analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods. Consumer rights are closely related to business competition. If unfair competition occurs and consumers become victims, consumers have the right to receive compensation.

It would be better if monopolistic practices and unfair business competition occur, consumers can immediately claim their rights in this case without needing to file a lawsuit for compensation again.
