Hmm... Lets see. Did you read the paperwork when you purchased your house? Or your lease if you are renting? Those are multi-page agreements. Did you read the paperwork when you attended college? Did you read the paperwork when you hired an electrician to do work in your home? Did you read the paperwork when you opened your 401(k) account?

Seriously? That is the most bogus rant I've ever seen. Just because you didnt feel like reading something that YOU SIGNED doesnt mean you're not liable for its contents. Perhaps you need to be a little more careful with your signature on documents.

This question does not even deserve a response. I hope your credit card company laughs in your face.

Good luck, every single car rental agency has one of those "multi-page agreements" that you seem to not enjoy. I suggest you walk, or take a taxi next time instead.
