Vehicle was advertised and sold as brand new with 3yr warranty. Manufacturer said it only has 2 years left as it was a demo model. This was not disclosed on the contract or verbally

These are "contract-specific" questions. If the car was advertised as "new," be sure to write down any other, specific terms (promises) they made to you. Where did you learn that the vehicle came with a 3-year warranty? If this was verbally communicated to you, it will be much... View More

The money comes from a tax on Amazon. How do i get a piece of it ?
answered on Oct 24, 2019
I didn't know that private citizens were entitled to share in a tax imposed upon Amazon? What makes you think that you're entitled to take part of a tax that Amazon has to pay based upon, what? I need a LOT more information before I could give you a very good answer.

My wife and I went to our gym in 2016 told them we wanted to cancel, the desk worker confirmed we were cancelled and would no longer be charged. A year later we have discovered that we are still being charged. I called the billing company and they say that per our contract we have to write a letter... View More
