Summary

The bill bars providers of contracted services from marketing any product as free if any fees—such as cancellation, return, or hidden charges—apply. It requires them to disclose the product’s total cost, including all fees, clearly and conspicuously at the point of sale. This aims to stop deceptive "free" offers that later cost consumers money.
