On August 14, a Florida man filed a lawsuit against Sunoco Inc. of Philadelphia
in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania
for false and deceptive representations of benefits advertised for the
Sunoco rewards credit card.
Sunoco Inc. claims that cardholders receive a 5-cent discount on every
gallon of fuel purchased at a Sunoco location. As of now, Sunoco is said
to have motor fuel markets in 26 states, including Florida. The man claims
that in January, he visited a Sunoco location to pump gas. However, the
discount was not applied at the pump. When he called, a representative
told him that the discount would be applied on his following statement,
so he waited.
Upon seeing his statement for the following month, the man noticed that
the discount was not applied. He called Sunoco, again, on February 26.
This time, the representative told him that not all Sunoco locations honor
the discount advertised.
Currently, the man is represented by the class-action lawyers of Golomb
&Honik, P.C. including Richard M. Golomb, Ruben Honik, Kenneth J.
Grunfeld, and David J. Stanoch.
