Q: I paid a deposit on a cosmetic surgery that I regret tonight, am I obligated to pay $750 to get out of it as I e-signed?
I was emailed one document to e-sign. The document states that I must pay $750 to get out of the contract and not reschedule the surgery date. However, this document was signed not w my real signature. I was also asked for my driver's license via text. Now upon research, I know what you're thinking, I see that this office is known for medical malpractices and deaths. I am scared that I am stuck... I was pressured via text to pay tonight or I’d lose out on the ‘special’. I feel so stupid bc they only allow you to pay via Zelle.
Deposit Amount: $250
Surgery Costs: $4500
A: Your "e-signature" would probably be regarded as your signature. They asked for your license so they'd have proof it was you. One would have to read the entire contract to know what happens if you don't pay the $750, but I'd be surprised if they actually bother to sue you for it.
