MODERATORS
No no, it's 0.15%.
Yes, but businesses can say that without the consumer knowing better.
They absolutely cannot. Have you seen this somewhere?
For the first half of just plain incorrect math, I'll point to the Verizon support call how they can't figure out the difference between dollars and cents...

Laws to prevent price increases? No.
Laws to prevent lies in advertising? Yes.
