Asked in Consumer Law and Contracts for Florida

Q: I receive money from a lifetime affiliate program, which is now being terminated. What can I do about it?

This is a datacenter company. They advertised a lifetime affiliate program, but now they said they will stop paying their customers. I have screenshots of their site before they removed the information. I am in contact with them, but they won't do anything about it. Can I take legal action against them?

A: In a situation like you describe the data center company has decided to end this program whether anyone likes it or not. Therefore your only recourse is to likely file a lawsuit over the issue. His is not the type of question where I can give you a simply set of steps to follow formyou to try to sue them. You need to consult with an attorney and get specific advice on how to proceed with this case. The filing of a lawsuit and the determination to do so involves numerous factors that simply cannot be covered in this type of forum.
