Vonage, a phone company, has excited vulnerable consumers with a simple TV commercial showing absolutely brilliant buyers agog over the fact they can deal without a contract, imagine, without a contract. Eager customers, according to the commercial, believe a no contract deal is an economic miracle. The first thing they bump into is that the “no contract” is for three months only at $14.99 but then jumps to $25.99 plus taxes and fees. That is not mentioned in the commercial. And there is the fact you must hook up to a high-speed computer, a problem if you don’t have one and a pain if you do. If there ever was a need for caveat emptor it is now that too many retailers are phasing into gimmick sale practices. The tactic might be coming from “home office” leaving the retailer and customer as victims. So what else is out there we should be warned about?
