Consumer Corner	From our Canada Blog

The Money Grabs Bernd - Thursday, March 11, 2010 How online "agreements" end up dinging consumers Ran into 2 incidents over the past few weeks where I wondered just how "binding" online Terms of Service were when they were tucked away on the bottom menu of a vendor's website. First surprise I came across is when I phoned Star Choice (now Shaw Direct) to cancel our satellite TV service. The customer rep explained that they required a 30 day notice for cancellations. Why? It makes no rational sense - it's not like they need 30 days to throw a bunch of switches or punch in the cancellation on their keyboards. When I told the rep I never agreed to this when I signed up, nor was it explained to me, AND - what I consider the BIGGEST act of omission - there was not a scintilla of info about it in their "current customer FAQ", she told me it was typed in the monthy statement on page 2 or 3, and stated in their online Terms of Service. The terms (a pdf document) start out with: "You (the ?Customer?) acknowledge and agree that by paying for any of the Services offered by Shaw Direct, you agree that the following terms and conditions (?Terms of Service?) apply to the provision of the Services." If you're a lawyer and reading this post, I'd like to know whether "paying" for a service - unless you've received a copy of the agreement when you signed up and agreed to it - constitutes a contract just because someone says so in their online terms. As a consumer, it seems like a fairly liberal stretch. The other case that left me a bit rankled involved an account I had set up with bandmix.ca. I paid for premiere membership for a month (to acess some of the for-fee features), using the pages shown below (screenshots): Page 1 Page 2 More....
