    If someone ran a company In Lithuania that provides bumps and charges for the option and one of it's employees put in a purchase then cancelled it so the bump is no longer an option is that illegal?
    I don't know. You'd be better asking on a Lithuanian forum. 



    I did and this was their reply:
    Nesu tikras dėl vartotojų įstatymų. Deja, aš negaliu padėti.



    I know Domestos kills 99% of germs, but I'm worried about the 1% that got away.

    The "consumer rights" questions on this site get more bizarre by the day.  From a bit of lawn seed to secondhand clothes, in the midst of a worldwide pandemic when tens of thousands are dying ...........
    What a ridiculous comment to make... there has always something going on in the world since this forum began which is far worse than any problem posted on here but it doesn't mean that little issues should be ignored for that reason...

    In late 2018 you posted about losing sounds on 2 TV channels when 1.5 million people died from Tuberculosis that year, so using your logic i should chastise you for that... how dare you!  :D

    I wouldn't worry about it too much.
    Just like a group of people in a bar, this members on this forum are made up of a wide range of personalities and wherever you go, you will always find the odd person who is continually offended and who likes to pontificate to others.

    If LadyDee's point had any real merit, the forum owners might as well close down this website and the same goes for every similar site in existence.
    Yes, many people have died because of Covid-19 but there are always a great many people dying around the world so does this mean that if possible, life shouldn't go on as normal for everyone else?

    Translates as 
    "I’m not sure about consumer laws. Unfortunately, I can't help it"

    Or in other words "Forget it!"

    Even if it was (and I'm not certain it is) how would anyone know or prove that was the case? Although your suspicion could well be correct, it will remain your suspicion unless others also experience similar.
