Discounts allow many consumers to purchase goods or services they could not have afforded at full price. That's why Groupons have become so popular. Discounts also allow people to purchase more than they could without the discount.

As per strict sense of the terms, a court is a normal agency of the state established for administration of a variety of laws. However, the courts may be differentiated along broad lines such as Civil, Criminal, Probate, etc. Moreover, courts have to abide by strict procedures in relation to evidence, appeals, procedure,etc. which remains the same in the broad categories such as civil and criminal.

A forum however, is not a strict judicial entity like the courts. A forum is established with the purpose of deciding upon matters arising out of some specific branch such as Consumer Laws. The forums are usually not bound by any specific procedural law and the matters are simplified for the general public.

Another point of difference is that the matters before the forums go to appeal before the courts only in advance stages.

Just to add details to this;

My landlord is entering the premises to investigate how the tenants are using the property which is illegal in my state. (ohio).

My land lord, living outside the premises, shows up randomly just to do laundry.

My land lord enters the house after 10pm when people are sleeping.

Yes! they can, will and do garnish Social Security wages. There's a good article about it at: http://www.seniorjournal.com/NEWS/SocialSecurity/05-02-01IRSGrabChecks.htm

It depends on what happened to you to want to sue the state. If you have suffered a loss or injury from the state or one of the states agents/employees then yes you might have a case. But the question is so vague. But yes you can take your local, state, and federal government to court.

An NGO is any non-profit, voluntary citizens' group which is organized on a local, national or international level. Non-profit consumer watch dog agencies can protect the consumer from dangerous products from children's toys to foods to prescription drugs to motor vehicles. They can generate publicity about unscrupulous lenders, companies, manufacturers, and put the word out about government agencies that are not doing their jobs. They can bring class action suits that represent large numbers of consumers who have been harmed by a corporations bad practices.

The Consumer Protection Act of 1987 was approved by the royal family of England through royal assent and was published on October 1, 1987. The act made important changes to UK consumer laws.

Probably not. The end of a warranty is a set date, not flexible.

However, if you are a good customer, they may be willing to give you a discount if you request one.

The laws in the Philippines about product liability is strict and has liabilities that can be both criminal and civil.

That would be a filibuster. The exact definition of a filibuster is an action such as a prolonged speech that obstructs progress in a legislative assembly while not technically contravening the required procedures.

I have no idea what the situation is but I would start with reading the contract.

No and the bank can take that money back at any time without giving you any type of notification. The bank can also assess you overdraft fees if you go into the negative when they do take the money back. Your best bet is to withdraw it and take the cash directly into the bank, speak to a manger, and turn it over.

If the customer was given an invoice three years ago for the purchase of goods, and if you still have copies of invoices that far back - which you should have, probably on your computer - there seems no reason to refuse the customer's request.

Whether you are required by law to provide the copy of that invoice will depend entirely on the circumstances leading to the request and on local legislation. You will need to contact your equivalent of a consumer affairs department or office, which should be in the telephone directory, in the government section.

Regardless of what your local law says, remember it is always best to comply with customers' reasonable wishes and requests.

One unhappy customer will talk to many others about the reasons for their dissatisfaction with a business; anyone who wants to continue in business and keep their customer base increasing needs to bear this in mind.

You may have copyright protection, however, copyright law is complex. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in copyright law, who can review the circumstances and explain your options.

by keeping good record and confidentially is important key to share information,

If you didn't have a written contract with the contractor then there is nothing you can do because he is not entitled to finish the job if it's not in writing.

The professional standard of care in case of physicians becomes important if you wish to proceed against them in a consumer forum to recover damages.

There cannot be any objective standard for care by a phsycian. I am conversant with Indian consumer protection scenario and till date no regulatory or statutory body has published any standard guideline for care.

However, the level of care can be assumed to be that of a reasonable and regulary updated professional of the medical profession. The phsycian cannot go against the etablished norms of treatment and diagnosis in the profession and can not experiment with the patient.

In order to prove the standard of care, opinion of experts in that field of treatment can be very useful.

No not legally.

Office of the Comptroller of the Currency

American federal government organization

In the state of Texas, there is a law that allows anyone a 3 day grace period to return a large purchase , such as a car or home within the 3 day time frame if you have changed your mind. And I do believe that law is nationwide.

Usually there is a stated warranty policy which you can look up on their website. Though it varies from vendor to vendor, usually if the failure is within one year they'll take care of most of the replacement and repair work.

You can call them (that is usually best) and they can refer you to a repair line or you can look up the repair center on their website and call the number listed.

You should have a description of the problem ready, have your order number or a reference number and the computer serial number. Usually they can look up your order from the serial number. It's usually on a sticker on the bottom of the computer or under the battery.

I would advise you to be very clearly aware of what your guaranteed warranty rights are and the time frame (like when your invoice date is, how long have you had the computer) before you call. That way you will be able to ask fro exactly what you deserve.
