Stupidity from the company
What is in 500 naira that you couldn't refund

Now you are going to pay 500k as damages

Mtsvheww

No to talk of the millions the the company corporate lawyer will charge for the case.

Foolish company with foolish policy.

Even in civilized countries sef, they usually try as much as possible to prevent cases from getting to court rooms and settle out of court even when they know that they can win the case. This is because, sometimes settling these little issues out of Court can sometimes be cheaper than even securing a victory.
You only see them in court on exceptional cases.

Wow. Good one. This will go a long way

SmartPolician:
Despite the fact that the fare is insignificant, this judgement is critical because it will be used to determine similar cases in the future.

Yeah, It will serve as an important precedence for future cases of extortion fir service providers who do this nonsense no refund policy

How person fit use this one sue IKelectric now?

Na to get accurate record of metre reading at the beginning of the month, then do the same thing at the end of the month, and calculate the amount... Once them estimated bill come cut light, GBAM, suing don start

I’m Yoruba, I served in the East, the East is very nice and Ibos are very nice people, there are only two types of people in this world, good and bad people. That Ibos come to the west doesn’t mean that their place is bad, they only need to spread there business tentacles being oriented people and mark you, Ibos are everywhere not just the West. Let love lead abeg. Make una stop these tribal nonsense

They dare not try this with me. I purchased peace mass ticket from Enugu going to Ìbàdàn in 2017 after finishing my service as a year old lawyer. After waiting for several minutes, I was told I can't carry a particular good to the bus, I blasted all their staffs they sharply refunded my money.

I feel like suing GTB for illegal withdrawal from my account

Sue the bastards jarey!

JubrinElSudan:
Vendors should take note cos this affects them too.
It's no longer business as usual

Most buyers don’t know but the consumer protection unit as always said that there is nothing like no refund no exchange,any vendor reported doing such go dey jail for 6months but most buyers don’t know this…

You See how stupid we are in this country! This case is a welcome development we are happy but if it's against politicians we will take side immediately. Had it been this man sued the govt, those against and for will be trading words by now. A judgement against cross carpeting of politicians were delivered, people who new that it is liberation and a gain for our political system were trading words of abuse...

Please lawyers in the house! Is this, applicable to flights ✈ tickets fares not used?

Please Please lawyers in the house! Is this, applicable to flights ✈ tickets fares not used?

Is this applicable to Telcos too?

I wish the judiciary is always proactive like this i would love to be a litigant very good hustle

Dtruthspeaker, how do see this judgement?

wolesmile:

Please go ahead, the deductions are much with very rude staff not willing to assist
when you have an issue with your account.

All this "my Lord, may I" "if I may, mi Lord" things take unprecedented turns in this jungle. I am happy for this judgement though sad that for every one vindication, there are countless travesties of justice in Naija.

My classmate at UNN that year, Chukwuma Patrick, you have done well. Customers have a lot of rights that are trampled upon by service providers. This case will reawaken the much needed customer confidence.

aribisala0:
You did not read well. He did not represent himself

Read well, again.

When the Plaintiff tried to explain to them that their policy was unlawful, as the law mandates them to refund fares for services that have not been provided they retorted in a rude manner, prompting the learned counsel to leave their park and seek alternative means of traveling back to Enugu.

A letter written by the lawyer to the Peace Mass Group of companies demanding an apology and refund was neglected, prompting the lawyers law firm to institute the action.

Naijanascam:
Good one......... congratulations to the victim for being courageous enough

Because he is a lawyer he was able to achieve this.

How many people will put the required resources on the line to pursue a case because of N500?

It is a victory to the masses who have suffered such oppression for years.

no be to carry mama ejima go court like this... paid for yam, yam no dey she say no refund say make i use the money collect another thing

Ishilove:


Read well, again.

Again you read and cannot comprehend ? How does his firm instituting action amount to him "representing himself"
Geez!!

You are just making assumptions that are not stated anywhere

Lexusgs430:
A matter of principle ........ I am loving Patrick C. Chukwuma, already........ .


Rather than refund his ₦500.00, now they must pay ₦500,000 compensation..........

They must now retrain all their employees......

They paid a lawyer o to defend their nonsense

Hope it will also cover arbitrary no-show policy of airlines and hotel cancellation fees

aribisala0:
Again you read and cannot comprehend ? How does his firm instituting action amount to him "representing himself"
Geez!!

You are just making assumptions that are not stated anywhere

You are the one reading and not comprehending. You are also assuming that he did not represent himself because it is not stated dear as well. His firm instituted an action but is it the 'firm' as a corporate entity that made the court appearances? Who will be in the best position to appear in court than the man himself who happens to be a lawyer?

Abeg rest.

Lawyers are trained, never to refuse a brief....... Lawyers, too got bills to pay ........


I see them attempting to appeal this judgement (upon lawyers advice).........
