Did you file a lawsuit?

Hi,

I am very interested to find out if you had filed a lawsuit, because I am looking to do the same. I wanted to ask you a few questions, such as, where do I begin? I’m trying to do a little research to find out which entity regulates ovago but not having any luck.

Thanks,

Kristy

While the DOT may not be able to help I will file a lawsuit to get 100% of my money back because I do not think the OTA can operate this way. This does not happen in any other industry. If I buy something from an online retailer and do not get the product for whatever reason I most definitely get my money back.
