Can you please explain where we have been "putting forth the fraud lures in customers by advertising a product or service at a low price or with many features, then reveals to potential customers that the advertised good is not available at the original price or list of assumed features, but something different is." (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bait-and-switch )

We have not, in any way, shape or form offered something that came with hidden fees, not been as stated or anything else of the sort.

Please refrain from using this term unless you are prepared to explain which definition of "bait-and-switch" you are referring to, and explain how exactly we have fallen under said definition.
