Terminix $60M Settlement for Illegal Business Practices Targeting Alabama Customers
“Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall announced on Thursday a historic $60 million state settlement with Terminix International in response to the company’s alleged illegal business practices targeting Alabama consumers,” reports Fox10 News.
“Officials say a statewide fund for consumer relief will be created to address Alabama consumer damages due to Terminix’s actions.”
“An investigation by the Alabama Attorney General’s office and the Alabama Department of Agriculture and Industries revealed that Terminix engaged in a pattern of collecting annual termite protection premiums from Alabama consumers, but failed to deliver or provide the termite protection services promised in the contracts consumers had with Terminix. As a result, many homes and businesses suffered termite infestation.”
