Statements like this make me very glad I live in a country where such declarations are automatically fiction.
- dspillett 15y agoThis can't be legal in many places. It certainly isn't here in the EU, and I find it hard to believe that most (if not all) US states don't have consumer protection regulations that cover this. If the error is due to a fault in the system the customer should not be punished for that error. I'm not an iStuff user at all at the moment, but would consider an iDevice if it were ever the right tool for the job at the right price. If they are going to try make the customers pay for faults like this (forcing the customer to know and quote relevant law/regulations to get the right thing done) then my attitude will move to never touching an iProduct for as long as I live and recommending friends/family/other take a similar stance.
- jamaicahest 15y agoIn most situations you can just tell your bank to block the transaction and that's the end of it. If you have a bank worth a damn.
- ZoFreX 15y agoI don't mean just from a fault perspective - if I buy something online in general I can get a refund later if I merely change my mind (although I don't know if this applies to purely digital purchases). In the UK, most of the times you see "No refunds", the sign in question has zero effect.
