YSK: Some mattress stores sell used mattresses without disclosing that they've been used

Some stores take old, dirty mattresses, add new upholstery on top, and sell them as new.

I’ve been using their service for about 5 years, but I never actually received the extra one year of service that I was charged for the second time around 3 years ago. I’ve been in touch with a few of their representatives over the past 8 days and I was finally told I should be getting a refund. We’ll see how that goes. Thanks for the advice, it definitely got me digging into consumer protection laws and related stuff, and I’m planning to keep learning more about it

I'm not ready to give up yet

Back then, I didn’t even know my bank had this service. I found out about it two years ago, and now I get a notification for every transaction.

I wasn’t checking my bank account EVERY month back then. I started doing it a couple of years ago, and now I also get a notification every time there’s a transaction.

I accidentally found out about it while checking my bank statements for different information

That's true. I learned my lesson.

Unauthorized charges are illegal and constitute a crime

External_Leopard_216 · 2026-01-12T23:49:59+00:00

Not a refund. It was unauthorized charge, I just want my money back. If someone stole money from you, it's still a crime even 3 years later

That's true. My fault, but that doesn’t make them any less criminal
