Class action law suit people.

There are enough people saying the same thing about insurance issues that something needs to be done. Obviously we dont all shop at the same place so i would say its in their training to sell the insurance no matter what you have to say. A big ole fat law suit will curb this problem.

Except every single one of these people has signed a contract that has specific Terms and Conditions and every single one of these people has signed that they received a copy of these Terms and Conditions. When you sign a contract, you are legally bound to the Terms of that contract whether you are aware of the exact terms or not so it is always advantageous to READ any contract you sign.
Best Buy cannot tell what was actually said in any of these conversations where the people on this forum said that the employee told them that one specific thing was covered (which magically turns out to be the exact thing that is broken in many cases). So in order to alleviate this, Best Buy provides EVERY customer who purchases a Black Tie Protection Plan a copy of the Terms and Conditions of said plan. Best Buy then requires these customer to electronically sign stating that they received these Terms and agree to these Terms (Courts have upheld these electronic signatures as legally binding signatures just as if you signed in pen on paper). Then in order to make sure that the customers have ample time to know exactly what the plan entails just in case, Best Buy gives each of these customers 30 days to read this small pamphlet of Terms and Conditions which would take approximately 20-30 minutes to peruse depending on the speed of the reader. If, during this 30 day period, the client feels that the Terms does not meet their expectations or what they believe they were told, they may return the Black Tie Protection Plan for a FULL refund.
This allows EVERY customer the ability to know EXACTLY what is and is not covered in the Black Tie Protection Plans. The only kink in this is........will the customer read the contract they signed? Whether they do or don't, they are still bound by the contract they signed. This is why your idea of class action won't work, because each and every person you speak of has signed a contract and didn't read what they signed.
Best Buy IS upholding their end of the contract between the two parties and that is what the courts will see.
But as we all know, people don't read and don't adhere to Terms and Conditions, similar to how you posted your thread on this forum where speaking about court action and/or lawsuits are against the Terms and Conditions that you agreed to. (of course that implicates me to.....dangit, I've been entrapped, lol)
I DO NOT work for Best Buy. I used to be a Geek Squad Agent for 2 years and this is why I am well versed on their policies and procedures, but I do not work for them anymore. My posts are my own opinions and do not represent any opinions of Best Buy. If you do not like my posts, and want to report me, you can do so by clicking this link and reporting me to the moderators.

IPod Settlement: Class Action Law Suit Question

I am involved in the class action settlement for customers who had trouble with the IPod battery (first and second generation IPods had battery failure problems).
Does anyone know if and when we receive compensation for justified claims?

Apparently, it's been delayed by an appeal against the judgement.

Creative to get Class Action Law Su

I own a Creative Jukebox Zen Xtra 60Gb junk box! Since day one it has not worked with their software. Forget trying to flash the firmware....you'd have better luck finding Jimmy Hoffa! The unit sat unused for almost a year until I had someone else look it over and they said it was no good. Creative told me it was out of warranty. It was by week and that's only because of the sales date. I hadn't opened the unit it until it was almost two months old and even then it didn't work. I guess these pieces of junk are just time bombs waiting until the warranty is up to really go south! Creative's customer service people are from outer space. They sound like broken records and couldn't care less about you once they have your money. I will start to write every PC magazine that I know of and the retailers like NewEgg that I bought it from to let them know that if they continue to sell these junkers they will lose our business!!! But now time to start a class action law suit against them so maybe they will have to take the consumer a little more seriously and not make MP3 players that every other one is hosed! Watch out Creative.....daddy's coming!

I have had my problems with my Zen Xtra and still believe that Creative have shot themselves in the foot for not fixing the firmware issues, but to blame them for a faulty unit when you did not have it checked out as soon as the problem occurred is unfair. When you found the problem two months after purchase you should have asked for and insisted upon support then, not 3 months after purchase.
Creative sells thousands of these a year I am sure so a small percentage are bound to have faults.

Has anyone looked into starting a class action laws

Just like the title says . Has anyone checked into this to see if there is one starting up. i was at the store yesterday and all of creatives cards on the self had vista compat. stickers on them NOW WE ALL KNOW THIS ISNT TRUE. AND SO DOES CREATIVE

This is obviously not an appropriate forum for this topic.

Class Action Battery/Chargeing port defect

I have had the incredible 2 for a yr. And had to replace my phone 3 different times, with this last refurbished phone, that I have had for several months, the battery is not holding a charg, so I ordered a new battery, in which I'm still having the same issue so I go and see about a replacent phone again , and come to find out I was a week late before my warranty was up, so my wife was talked into getting a differnt warrenty in which didn't help me, I'm stuck on paying for a phone that I can't use, why should I have to pay out more money to get my phone fixed this is bad buisness after seeing all these battery issues with the incredible should of been a recall and people should of got a differnt phone free of eqal or greater value.... But I forgot Verizon is about the money and not willing to work or fix there issues...besides sending refurbished phones..I have tried everything suggested and still no reslove must be the port...I'm gonna go speak with a lawyer about a class action law suit since I'm stuck for another yr paying on a phone that I can't use...

Read the VZW customer agreement and its section about class actions.
Also why would you file against VZW? They didn't make the device. The manufacturer did.

I play WoW, you enable in-game harrassement by selling-allowing illegeal wow gold selling sites to exist. you are being put on notice that you and they will be involved in a class action harrassement law suit.

you will be involved in a class action harassment lawsuit along with WoW gold sellers and their web sites. you provide them a spot to in-game harass people playing WoW
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== you provided the service to illegeal gold sellers

Hi Carl,
I don't know what WoW is, but it sounds like a website has been giving you unwanted pop-ups. Firefox is like the car you drive to navigate the web, so a pop-up is like you parking at a store and someone comes out between you and the store to sell you something.
What I'm saying is, those ads are not provided by Firefox. There is a tool in Firefox to block pop-ups though. See [[Pop-up blocker]]

Class action suit?

Why is there no class action against adobe for damage to computers using flash player. Using flash player and running proccessor at 100% must do damage to your system. I dont get it, someone should be held responsable for destroying the life of your computer?

I am only one of THOUSANDS of customers upset with Verizon's lack of 4G LTE service, their misleading advertisements, etc. When I was told "Congratulations! You are in the 4G ..." area, it never stated to check the small print.
Additionally, withholding the information via direct communication immediately after receiving the cell got me nothing more than months of emails stating, "it's coming in your area soon."
By the time I found out I live in a "fringe" area, it was too late to do anything about it.
I'm not a cell tekkie. I bought the phones in the good faith statement from Verizon stating to me that we were in the coverage area. Period.
Why is it that when someone wants to write a wrong (and for the good of all and not for one), the topic gets changed to something like wasting money to pursue an equitable resolution?
How long will people sit back and keep getting punched in the wallet before someone does something meaningful?

Class Action Suit ... 4G LTE

Does anyone know if there is a Class Action Suit against Verizon for the lack of advertised and promised 4G LTE service?
I've never, ever seen the 4G light up on my phone anywhere. I think even if I was in a 4G area (not an extended area) it has the capability to light up (HTC Thunderbolt).
I never realized the number of people across the nation who are having the same problems with the lack of 4G LTE coverage ... in spite of the fact that going through the process of finding out if you're covered or not it always says "Congratulations! You're covered."
According to my map, if I walk out to the mailbox I should have extended coverage. I have nothing. No matter where I go. Nothing.
Seems to me that perhaps a bait and switch is going on. I realize that Verizon has a LOT of caveats about 4G LTE service coverage areas, but the promises, lies, and outright failure to fix this situation has to be stopped.
I doubt this will remain posted. If it is removed, I will just find another way.

Any class action suit yet?

I'm contemplating absolution of my contract due to the mismanagement of my personal phone calls. Just a question of trust. Is anyone aware of existing law suit? Been with these folks ever since I've owned a cell. I only ask on account of this recent article:
http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2013/06/report-verizon-built-separate-fiber-optic-line-linked-directly-to-us-government-video/

The US Supreme Court has ruled out class actions. However two have been attempted in the last month, however the courts will cite National Security Secrets and will dismiss the suit.
Just pay your bill as always or leave and pay your Early Termination Fees that is all you will be able to do.
Good Luck

Class action suite for refunds for failed Ovi down...

I tried to download Shazam using the Ovi app a month ago. The download failed with no explanation, but £4 was still charged to my phone bill. I have been trying to claim this amount back since then.
I have called customer care, used the "contact us" option on the Nokia site and written a letter. I have been promised the refund twice. I have spent over 5 hours on the phone to Nokia care, spread over about 5 phone calls. Time spent on hold has been about 4 and a half hours. What's very annoying is sales answers immediately, it's existing customers Nokia doesn't seem to care for. I made some of these calls from my office phone, and the rest used included minutes on my phone for, but if this had all been from my mobile, it would have been worth over £50 on O2's contract tariffs.
It seems Nokia has made claiming a refund prohibitively expensive and very, very difficult and time consuming, and if there are other people out there also waiting for refunds, I am considering looking into a class action suite if enough people are interested.

If Nokia does this to every customer, it's not just £4, is it? And anyway, it's not about the £4, it's about the fact that I can get thru to Nokia sales in about 5 seconds, but to request a refund has taken over 5 hours, and I still don't have the refund. It's not that the support is bad, it's simply not there, but they trick you into thinking someone who can help you will eventually answer your call. I din't phone them with a plan to set aside 5 hours for this, I didn't plan on wasting so much time, I phoned thinking they'd answer within a few minutes and give me my refund. Because of Nokia's terrible customer care, I've already wasted so much time, so why not waste some more to make a point and hopefully cost Nokia some money, seeing as they won't refund mine? And judging by the long waiting times, I'm not the only one with a problem.
And why would my contract provider refund me for Nokia's broken app store? it's not their fault. And yes, I did phone them and ask them if they could do anything, and as I suspected, the answer is no.
Hello tomvan,
I am checking into the problem you have reported. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Thank you for your patience!

CLASS ACTION SUIT..SIGN UP!...*REPOSTING ON POSTERS BEH

Lots of us are very fed up with the x-fi. I am. It cost me a lot of dosh, and hours and frustrating hours, days, weeks, months of my precious time to discover it wouldn't work.
QUOTE: "Anyone interested in a Class Action Suite against Creative for the issues with the X-FI and the clicking / popping issue that hasn't been resolved that they blame on motherboard manufactures, please drop me an e-mail. I'm going to start working on getting this noticed. They've ignored my issues with an AMD chipset and I'm tired of them blaming other companies.
I've sent several e-mails indicating that my issue with the Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe existed (ATI, non-nVIDIA)but they've not responded other than re-installing drivers. I've also contacted a lawyer about a class action suit.
I can have days of good activity but as soon as I remove or install something such as the latest ATI drivers (tonight) the constant clicking starts again. So that's PCI bus?
They've not listened and it's time to take action against this company.
Please e-mail me at [email protected]
This will probably be removed so save the e-mail and spread it to those that have the issue. I'll have a site up as well soon.

I'm tired of waiting too, but your going to sue? get a life. That goes to everyone complaining over and over for drivers etc. I mean make your complaint then get in line. Does anyone here actually think that complaining over and over will make them move faster? I'm sure they want to resolve this issue more then any one of you. They are a large company and reputation is on the line. their own forums must hurt business. Potential customers come here and read and run like heck. They obviously pay little attention to this forum. Or of course it's best for them to say nothing.
Anyway, try to sue Creative, It'll make some good reading. But you'd be best getting a life. It's a whole lot less work to pull the card out of your box and install something else... or better yet use the onboard which you most likely already have. I paid allot for my card and loved it in XP, not liking it so much in Vista.
Quick question, who here bought a brand new Vista PC with a creative sound card which has little to no support? no one? Who here installed Vista on a PC that held a creative sound card? pretty much all of us? Well suck it up kiddies! Unless we are all stupid, we knew the card was not supported. We knew there would be limited functionality... right? Sure we hoped that Creative would roll out something faster then they are, I did too. I'm not going to kick them in the nuts because they have not though.
Get a life, there are better things to do in life. Get some fresh air for gods sake. There will be a fix sooner or later. Creative is not going to pull the plug on these cards. Were they not great in XP? I've never had an issue, I have an nforce motherboard and I use and Nvidia GPU. I've built my own PC and know how to resolve issues. If that means swapping a MOBO or a GPU, then so be it wilma. Whatever it takes right?
Good day and good whining.

NVidia Class Action Suit

Constant Kernel Panics? Black Screen? Video problems? You should know about this Class Action Suit against Apple for selling defective logic boards.

CLASS ACTION FILED AGAINST APPLE FOR DEFECTIVE MACBOOK LOGIC BOARDS
I was one of the many unfortunate individuals who ended up paying Apple the $310 repair fee (more than $400 total, diagnostics included) to fix what was a defective logic board causing constant kernel panics. I don't think the suit has come to a conclusion or a settlement has been reached, but after spending the last month or so on this board trying to diagnose my kernel panics, I figured many others with similar problems would be interested in knowing about this.
If anyone has any more up-to-date information on the suit or on what individuals should do if they believe they fall into the Plaintiff Class, please share!

Is Verizon going to end up with a Class Action Lawsuit regarding the Trade-In Scam?

I notice I'm not the first to report this issue. In fact, after reading the horror stories in the community, I'm questioning if going with Verizon Wireless and/or using their online trade-in program was the right thing to do. I see so many other people experiencing the same nightmare, I figure it's just a matter of time until there's a Class Action Lawsuit against them regarding their Trade-in Scam of 2014.
I was lured to Verizon by their promotion of receiving $200 for my iPhone 4s. I pre-ordered my iPhone 6 online on 9/12. Following the check-out, I was given the option to complete the online trade-in program. My iPhone 4s was in perfect condition as it was kept in a LifeProof case since day 1. Being in that condition made it eligible for the full $200 trade-in value.
My iPhone 6 arrived on time. I transferred my data from the iPhone 4s to the iPhone 6. Then ensured the 'find my phone' feature was turned off, all passwords unlocked and factory reset completed. Then I fully charged the phone and turned it off prior to packing into the provided trade-in program materials/envelope.
I was a little concerned about the trade-in program materials/envelope. The envelope itself was nothing more than a padded envelope. It was a pre-printed business reply envelope. No tracking number other than a bar code with my submission id on it and then stamped with the word PROMO. I was hesitant to drop it in a mailbox so I took it right into my local post office. That was on 9/23.
I started checking the trade-in status a week later but the status was 'Not Received'. Another week later, same thing. Finally, I reached out to the trade-in program via email on 10/11. I received a 'canned' response back on 10/16 that I should wait 4-6 weeks for my gift card. That time period includes a 2-3 for inspection and processing from the date of receipt at the warehouse.
On 10/25, I reached out again to the trade in program via email. On 10/26, I received the very same response... word for word. I reached out again on 11/7 and they didn't even reply. I tried calling but got no where by phone. They claim they'll escalate the issue but I never hear back.
I really feel scammed out of $200 by using this online trade-in program. The guideline stipulated that I must use the supplied packing materials and envelope or the promotion amount would not be guaranteed; however, without tracking there is no way to know where the phone is.
Come on Verizon... you lured me in, now do the right thing and send me the $200 gift card I was promised.

I've gone through the same process as you've described with a different twist. They advised me that the screen on
my phone was cracked. They are sending me $36 instead of the Appraised Value of $200. I'm not an Attorney
but I would bet it would be an easy win over Verizon in a Class Action, because this whole process smells
bad. There must be tens of thousands of people getting ripped off and they're not all liars, which is what Verizon would have a judge believe. Contract or no contract, most states prohibit Agreements that would negate consumer protection
from fraudulent business practices.
Verizon may play hardball with it's disenchanted customers and there isn't much you can do as an individual.
This just happened with me on one phone and I'm waiting for news of a second phone that I sent at the same time.
In the meantime I will visit the Verizon Store and talk to the salesperson who sold me the two new iPhone 6's
and see what he can do. I will also contact my local Better Business Bureau office for their advice. If there's no satisfaction, I will keep the phones, stop paying my bill and get a new carrier. They can take me to court, but I will be there first in@ Small Claims Court. I'm retired so I have time to do this stuff, but most people can't, so the best bet is still a
good Lawyer with a Class Action Suit and lots of negative publicity in the papers and the internet.

Class action law suit people.
