I would like to know if there is a law for False Advertisment?
I recently purchased an advertised special off the internet sold by a Dominican Company out of Santiago. I purchased flowers for Mother's Day as a combo package that also included a pre-paid cellular phone, with a phone card for $245.RD, . The ad offered the two items as a package, my recipent did get her flowers but no phone, they have told her she can not have it with out signing up for a plan.
But that is not what was in the ad, it was very exact, pre-paid, free activacion, etc...
I have called and called from here and my family has called and gone to the store where the purchace originated, but each day we just get the run around, or a new version of the truth.
Is there any type law (not that it would EVER get inforced), about false advertisments?
If I cancel the charge on my credit card (I don't know if they will let me because of the whole international obstacle) can I face any recouse? (Blacklisted from entry)?
Should I just allow myself to be used and walked over and sum it up to "I should have known better and now I have learned a lesson"!
Any Advice?
