Hidden fees discovered from Development Associates
Complaint Details
On September 9, 2000, I signed up for Development Associates's delivery service at their North Lizaville, Missouri location. I was told that the service would include plan, but after paying $568.83, I discovered this wasn't the case. When I called to resolve this, Osvaldo W. was unhelpful and refused to address my concerns.
