How do I properly notify the supplier of my intent to cancel?

     The P.E.C.A. specifies the method, the form and the place where cancellation may occur. Pursuant to R.C. 1345.44(D)(4), the seller is under a duty to honor any valid notice of cancellation and refund all payments made by the consumer (except for $10.00). Within thirty days the seller must return any documentation containing the consumer’s personal or private facts. The seller must retain the notice of cancellation for the period in which an action to enforce the contract could be commenced.

METHOD: Pursuant to R.C. 1345.43(A), 1345.44(B)(1) and 1345.44(C) a consumer may exercise his right to cancel by 1) certified mail, return receipt requested, 2) personal or manual delivery, or 3) telegram.

FORM: According to R.C. 1345.43(A), 1345.44(B)(1), a consumer may use any written form to effect a cancellation so long as it expresses his intention not to be bound by the contract.

PLACE: R.C. 1345.44(A), 1345.44(B)(1) authorize the consumer to send or deliver the notice of cancellation to any facility which he is entitled to use under the contract.
