The BBB Code of Advertising states that, "The primary responsibility for truthful and non-deceptive advertising rests with the advertiser. Advertisers should be prepared to substantiate any claims or offers made before publication or broadcast and, upon request, present such substantiation promptly to the advertising medium or the Better Business Bureau."
The BBB Code of Advertising also states, "An advertiser may use the word 'free' in advertising whenever the advertiser is offering an unconditional gift. If receipt of the 'free' product or service is conditional on a purchase: The 'free' offer should be temporary; otherwise, consumers may view it as a continuous combination offer, no part of which is free. Thus, where it would otherwise confuse consumers, a product or service must not be advertised with a 'free' offer in a trade area for more than six (6) months in any 12 month period. At least thirty (30) days must elapse before another such offer is promoted in the same trade area."
The BBB Code of Advertising also states, "Claims relating to performance, energy savings, safety, efficacy or results for a product or service should be based on recent and competent testing or other objective data."
While the business initially responded to our request for advertising substantiation, as of May 11, 2016, the business has failed to substantiate, modify, or discontinue the claims originally brought to its attention.
