What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
Recently I set up an online ad campaign with a US based company and set up all the details. I added my payment method and had to agree to allow them to charge me for my account balance and keeping it balanced.
I set a budget of $100 for the ad and it started to run. When my budget ran out, I was informed that my ad would quit showing until I added more money. I turned it off just as a procotion. Within minutes I could see that my ad was running over budget, even though I had turned it off minutes ago. Within 10 minutes I could see my account budget was at -$200 and 10 minutes after that it had hit -$400. By now my account is -$600 and the company is trying to get me to pay them for them running my ad $600 over budget.
What are my options here? Am I required to pay or is there a law protecting me?
