Updates on missing Titanic sub: Canadian aircraft detects underwater noises during search for missing submersible, US Coast Guard says: Updates Who are Marc and Sharon Hagle? Marc and Sharon Hagle alleged Rush of misleading them about their trip to visit the wreckage and refusing to refund their money when they backed out, despite being told they could get their money back. The search is still on for the missing OceanGate Titan submersible that went missing on Sunday with five people aboard somewhere near the wreckage of the RMS Titanic, the entire world watching as it is a race against time to save those onboard.Īmong multiple lawsuits and whistleblowers now emerging over the company, a Florida couple is making headlines for their February lawsuit against the now-missing OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush for a Titanic voyage that never happened. It's about a principle and arguing for what I think is right.Watch Video: CBS News' David Pogue recounts OceanGate dive to Titanic wreckage This is not about an isolated situation that affects me personally. The money I spent on a game was all the money I had available to spend on games at the time. However, I have been in a situation before where I couldn't. I have money in my wallet already and could buy whatever game I want, regardless of the refund situation. I'm arguing about the principle of this, not my own personal situation. You are just making up arguments in your head to justify pretending that you are "better" than someone who has a different opinion than you. Where did I say anything about a "sale" factoring into my purchase or refund decision? In fact, the refund that prompted this complaint is for a game that wasn't on sale at all. Also up to you: feeling butthurt and 'scammed' by buying something before it goes on sale, or whatever 'refund but oh noes can't buy yet because I already spent my money' whine this is. Whether you personally choose to buy it when you first see it, or during a sale, is entirely up to you. If you want a game, you're going to buy it regardless. Someone makes an argument that would favor consumers and you pounce at the opportunity to defend a giant corporation. You're trying to pretend to be all high and mighty by scolding someone who you believe "doesn't know how things work" but I know precisely how they work and I'm complaining about it with the hope that they will change it to a more consumer friendly policy. The current system is in place as a way to ensure that the customer ends up buying multiple games. A customer who bought a new game and was ultimately disappointed by it is highly likely to want to get a different game right away. ![]() I'm calling it a scam because it's a dishonest way of inducing customers to spend more money. Then you would not get back your many even 7 days later.Īnd if you made the purchase counting on the refund - well you should have counted fully on how it works, no one ever promised it will be instantaneous.Īlso you might want to look up the dictionary on what "scam" means. Others are glad that steam at least have refunds, in any way. Originally posted by pasa:Bah, some people just are unable to see anything bright in life.
