What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I was overcharged in sales tax. I bought a phone in October 2008 with a sales tax rate of 8.75%, but I was charged over 17.5% in tax.
I asked the employee that helped me with the purchase of the phone why was I charged so much in taxes and she told me it was extra fees.
I tried to get the company to explain why I was charged so much tax and no one could tell me why.
My receipt sums it up like this:-
Sub-Total $199.00
[email protected]% $34.91
Total $233.91
I did go back in the next day and talked with another associate, who told me they cannot change the sales tax amount on the receipt.
Is their anything I can do about this. I don't think this is right at all.
