Legal Question in Consumer Law in Georgia

I was taken for $460 from a travel website

I purchased a travel package on a website, thinking airfare was included, it

turned out that it wasn't. I immediately tried to cancel and they wouldnt give

a refund ($476). I disputed with my bank and lost the dispute and the money.

My bank says it was because it said no refunds in their terms and conditions.

I think I should get my money because when I made the transaction they

asked times of departure like they would when getting airfare. I was misled

into thinking I was also recieving airfare and thats why i should get a refund.

I have read several other accounts on threads of other people who were taken

for thousands by this company (cheap tickets.com) basically what I want to

know is can i do a class action suit? how would I do that? Most importantly

though, what is my personal legal recourse and are there lawyers that will

take my case and take no payment unless I win? Thank you for your time.

Re: I was taken for $460 from a travel website

If your actual order did not include airfare, and nothing stated that it did, then you really have no recourse. No one can really give you a firm response without looking at your actual order and confirmation documents, but it appears you merely made an assumption that was not reflected in your actual order.
