TINA.org Supports FTC’s Ruling against Intuit’s Deceptive Advertising
Intuit should not advertise TurboTax Free Edition without making clear that most people cannot use it.
In April 2016, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Caskers, LLC (a company offering subscriptions for alcohol deliveries) for, among other things, allegedly failing to adequately disclose the terms of its automatic renewal and continuous service offers resulting in consumers getting charged without their consent. Later that same month, the lawsuit was voluntarily dismissed When a complaint is dismissed without prejudice, an amended version of the complaint can be refiled.. The reasons for the dismissal have not been disclosed. (Lopez et al v. Caskers, LLC and Does 1-10, Case No. 16-cv-837, S. D. CA.)
