蘋果 Apple Store 爆出消費爭議,消費者權益倡議人士日指控,部分 Apple Store 員工為了達成公司設定的業績目標,疑似未經顧客明確同意,就擅自替客戶申請 Apple 旗下付費服務的免費試用,甚至將訂閱優惠包裝成贈品,讓消費者在不知情的情況下,導致繼續自動扣款,讓消費者強迫消費。
知名維修技師、消費者權益倡議人士 Louis Rossmann 近日指控,長期從事電子產品主機板維修與資料救援,也是推動維修權益(Right to Repair)立法的重要倡議者。他在近期發布的影片中透露,Apple 曾要求直營店員工向顧客介紹個人化購物優惠,依照近期購買的產品,提供相應的 Apple 服務免費試用。如購買 iPhone 的消費者,目前可獲得 3 個月 Apple TV 免費試用,但試用期結束後,若未事先取消訂閱,就會開始收取月費。
問題在於,相關優惠並非直接顯示在顧客手機上,而是由店員透過自己的工作裝置操作。Rossmann 引述一名 Apple Store 員工說法指出,公司疑似設定 40% 的訂閱申請目標,並將達成率納入員工績效評估,部分員工為了完成目標,甚至直接替顧客按下「接受」,未充分取得消費者同意,更有人將免費試用描述為贈品,讓顧客忽略後續可能產生的定期扣款。
事件曝光至今,Apple 都尚未正式公開回應,不過 Rossmann 在後續影片中透露,Apple 已開始採取措施。一名員工表示,門市晨會已宣讀內部通知,明確要求必須由顧客本人按下接受按鈕,同時內部系統也顯示,公司似乎已不再以訂閱申請數量評估員工績效。
目前相關指控尚未獲得 Apple 正式證實,事件後續是否涉及更廣泛的門市管理問題,仍有待 Apple 進一步說明。
