If the consumer did not authorize the purchase of such insurance, the consumer shall notify the seller of any unauthorized charges for such insurance that are imposed under the retail installment contract within three (3) months of the initial billing for such insurance.
If the consumer notifies the seller during the three-month period that such consumer did not authorize the purchase of such insurance and the seller cannot provide proof of authorization by such consumer, the seller shall refund an amount equal to a minimum of three (3) months' charges for such insurance, including a refund of any penalty or interest assessed with respect to such charge, if any.
If the consumer notifies the seller during the three-month period that such consumer did not authorize the services and the seller is able to prove authorization by such consumer, no refund shall be issued by the seller.
