Is it legal for a company to charge more then the advertised amount?

Call them. Talk to someone at the magazine. Contact the BBB by PHONE or snail mail. Call your local consumer protection agency.

Hello.  They're still in beta and are looking to charge commission when they move out of beta. They say 15%, so I guess it won't be free for ever and yes, there is a catch!  I guess they have to pay for their technology and people somehow.  Good luck with your business though!

Like answerer #1, I have also signed merchant account agreements.  Not sure where all these other peple are getting their answers but from personal experience, they are mistaken.\n\nSo here is your answer...\n\nWhen a company wants to accept credit cards it has to sign a contract agreeing to certain terms and conditions.  So while it is NOT illegal (they cannot go to jail over it) it IS against the terms of a retailers contract to have a minimum charge.\n\nAlso, they are not supposed to give discounts for paying cash, or charge a percentage for the amount you want to charge.\n\nSee an additional source below.

No this is not legal! You get your wages and then YOU pay your bills. My company does not pay my bills for me!

It's illegal to buy from a rez and then resell for a higher profit. With 33 cartons, that's what you were probally doing and it is an offence you can be charged with.\n\nAnd just a little FYI for you reserve land is considered government land, so that little stunt you pulled is a federal offence.

I would check with the better business bureau.  \n\ndo not give ANYONE your bank account information. \n\nit sounds fishy to me...you should check with the police if they have had incidents with this company.

There's supposed to be, but it's not fool-proof yet. Any one who knows about this, and knows where, when and who should report it. The business who is allowing large sales of medicine, unless it is to a doctor or a pharmacist, could be charged I believe. I would talk to someone in the know about it, police or your doctor. Just say you're concerned about it, and you would like to know if it's legal or what.

It is a rip off.  Their "no late fee" is just an advertising ploy.  You still get charged a late fee...they just changed the name of the fee to a restocking fee so they can't get into legal trouble and  yet can still collect the money.  I honestly don't think there is a thing you can do about it.  We got caught in it too right after they first televised the "no late fee" campaign.

It could be that the fee is called something else. See, for example, the link below that shows how AT & T describes the fees. Check out the website for your carrier to see if they provide similar information.

I would call SBC if I were you. I know friends who were overcharged and ended up getting a refund -- I think some companies overcharge on purpose, and then offer special discounts to customers who find out they've been overcharged -- because in the long run they make more money off of the customers who never realize they're being overcharged.

Only if the amount you're charging will not put you over your limit.

The $2 should be subtracted from the $27, not added to it -- since they were overcharged by $5, the room actually cost $25.\n\nThey ending up paying $27, $25 for the room and $2 to the bellhop. That $27 plus the $3 refund is the original $30

Sorry to tell you this-nothing. Two over the limit fees can be charged. She was overdrawed in the beginning.\nSorry.

If you paid with a credit or debit card I would call the institution that supplies that card.  However, since it has been over a year they may not be able to dispute the charges.  You may need to speak to an attorney if the product was worth the value!

If you ordered one, they can only charge you for one.  If they claim you've had two, it's up to them to prove it.\n\nWrite to the Company Secretary at their Head Office.  Quote the invoice number and state what you ordered and when.  Tell him you agreed to buy one, you've only received one and you're only paying for one, and if you're harassed you'll claim damages.

you should inquire as to  what the charge is first for services like that

First, it's "..overcharged THEIR customers. Will THERE be a refund?"\n\nThere's no indication that there will be any refunds forthcoming.
