What Recourse Do I Have If An Online Merchant Overcharges Sales Tax?
The merchant insists on charging full City+State tax rate for my online purchase, but I happen to live outside of city limits, and so should only pay the state rate and no city tax.
It’s an ongoing problem that continues despite several people having drawn it to the merchant’s attention on various occasions.
I will try to get a refund (after the fact) by calling and writing to the merchant. But clearly they won’t fix the underlying problem, so I think it should be brought to the attention of the appropriate regulatory authorities. Whom should I contact?
This is a good posting, I was wondering if I could use this piece of writing on my website, I will link it back to your website though. If this is a problem please let me know and I will take it down right away.
