Amazon prime

Fine them a billion dollars and see if that make that same "mistake" again.

 

Amazon makes it hard to order some products one time and get you on the monthly order. Have to pay attention. It's not easy to fix. They have 200 million people on Prime x $100 a year. Imagine starting the year off with 20 billion in revenue.

 

Vail, Inc. encourages auto-enroll in numerous ways including getting the best price. You can access your account on their web page which gives lots of info including total vert feet skied, CC info, etc. But, you know what you cannot do on your acct website? Unenroll in auto-enroll. You must call for that & trust that the hippy on the other end actual UNenrolls you cuz guess what you can't even see your enrollment status on their web page. Further & lastly, once an early spring date goes by, they are gonna charge for the next season no matter what. I do not ski their mts anymore.

Many Coloradans have already paid or put down a deposit for season passes. But one man just diagnosed with cancer says buying the extra insurance would've protected him against what he calls the "petty and greedy" behavior of Vail Resorts.
"That feeling when you’re skiing, you’re not thinking about work. You make that next turn, that's what you’re thinking about,” said Cookson. "The rush, the powder."

For a man who skied more than fifty times last year, the Epic Pass deal made sense. At a pricey $899, skiers and snowboarders can go to resorts worldwide. But it pays for itself in just four visits, according to the Vail Resort’s press release announcing the Epic Pass last year. Michael's account auto-renews every season, but things changed in June. Cookson said doctors diagnosed him with prostate cancer that metastasized into bone cancer this past spring.

He realized there's no way he would have the strength or be in a state of health to ski this season during his treatments. So he called Vail Resorts to cancel his Epic Pass before he's charged for the full amount, but the staff wouldn’t budge.

"They said that it’s our policy. We will charge the credit card account in September for the 2018-2019 pass," said Cookson. Vail Resorts will charge $899 no matter what to his card in the fall.

Lina Khan is on it. I think Prime is well worth it, but good for consumer protection

 

Uh... that's like standard operating procedure. One click sign ups but you have to call an agent between the hours of 9:30 and 9:31 UTC time on odd numbered days that dont end in Y.
