9771 Complaints & Helpline Guide

Registration rejected for no clear reason? Pump refusing your token? Overcharging? The government has set up official channels to hear you — the PAK ID App's Fuel Complaint system and helpline 9771. Here's how to use both effectively.

Filing a 9771 fuel complaint

Option 1: PAK ID App — Fuel Complaint

The official digital complaint channel runs inside the PAK ID App:

  1. Open the PAK ID App on your phone.
  2. Select the "Fuel Complaint" option.
  3. Enter the details of your issue (registration problem, token problem, pump overcharging, etc.).
  4. Attach a picture of the relevant token or receipt if you have one.
  5. Submit — you can track the complaint's progress inside the app.

Option 2: Helpline 9771

For difficulties with registration or problems at petrol stations, you can also contact 9771 directly for assistance. Keep your CNIC number and token details handy before calling.

What to Include in Your Complaint

  • Your CNIC number and registered mobile number.
  • The exact token code and date (for token issues).
  • Pump name and location (for refusal/overcharging).
  • Screenshots or photos of SMS messages and receipts.

Common Issues Worth Reporting

  • Registration SMS never confirmed despite correct format.
  • TOK replies not arriving even within quota.
  • Participating pump refusing valid tokens.
  • Being charged above the notified fuel price.
  • Anyone demanding money, OTPs, or CNIC photos in the name of 9771 — this is fraud; report it.

What Happens Next

Complaints filed through the PAK ID App are trackable — check the app for status updates. For urgent pump-side issues, the 9771 helpline is the faster route. If your issue is about eligibility rules or the registration format, re-check those guides first — most rejections come from small formatting mistakes.
