I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

auto-renewal trapped me in 3-year deal. I've been dealing with this for about 5 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The contract was signed 3 months ago. I have a copy of the original agreement. The total amount in dispute is approximately $82,000.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

This happened to my coworker too.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.

I ended up escalating to a supervisor/manager, which cost about $1-3 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. But don't just take my word for it, get real legal advice.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

What worked for me was filing with the appropriate government agency. It took 4-8 months but was worth it.
