A college age door to door salesman who claimed I could either purchase a subscription to a magazine, or I could purchase a subscription of a magazine and have it sent to a local childrens hospital, thus gaining a charitable write-off. He claimed he was participating in a sales competition with a grand prize of some vacation trip. Later after conversing with the salesman I began to get an uneasy feeling about his legitimacy and decided I would cancel the order.
I mailed out my cancelation form THE DAY OF the order, which happened to be a Saturday, so technically it didnt reach the post office till the following Monday. The form stated that the mail needed to be postmarked within 3 business days of the date of sale. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Saturday and Sunday are not business days.
Weeks later I received a letter stating that my cancelation was denied because my letter was not postmarked within 3 days of the date of sale. I immediately called the number on the letter and was connected to a representative who claimed my letter was not postmarked until 2 weeks after the date of sale. My apartment complex has daily mail pickup so I know that that is impossible, no matter how slow the mail is running. At that point the representative became hostile and refused to assist me any further.
I have filed the information with my city council to see if this company even has the proper permits to come onto the property where my apartment is.
