it may be only oklahoma law dor consumer protection? but in Okla, we have a time frame after we get the hearing aid that we can return it for a full refund. this is a cooling off period. i also know tha toregon and ny have simular laws
my audiologist had demo aids. she put me in the cheapest variety. i wore this for a week. then a grade up for a week. when i expressed what i liked and did not like, she asked if i wanted to try an oticon pro ... the most expensive so far. i did not try to next level up.
she said that she always starts with the least expensive and only goes up with the request of the patient as they might like what they are not willing to spend.
i paid a security deposit of a few hundred dollars. when i made my final selection, i paid the remainder and this si when the cooling of period started. i believe that it was 4 weeks?
? no she made 3 sets of adjustments before she actuially sold me the unit ... teh audiologist gave me booklet on my consumer rights as i made the purchase
then all costs for the first year were also included. you may wish to check consumer laws to see about a back out period if you have to pay before you leave. ... i believe that the audiologist could keep a percentage of the returned fee for their srevices?
so if you do not like it - you wish to look at your options.
