Review: Some how I am getting charged for something I don't know nothing about from TLG SHOPPERS .

phone # XXX-XXX-XXXX . I have called and asked what I am being charged for and they tell me nothing.

There is no contract signed , and no information sent to me. I did asked if they had a account on me ?

They said no! I have called many times and asked them to cancel me and they said no.

Yesterday I went on line under TLG SHOPPERS and found many complaints. Someone better check out the fraud that is going on at this place. Because I want it stopped coming off my credit.

Review: I went to the f.y.e store located at lynnhaven mall Virginia beach. when I went to cash out the sales person asked if I wanted a discount on my purchase. I said sure. He said fine just fill out this form to become a member of our store it it free. I have signed up for discount cards before that are free and didn't seem harmful. The sales person assured me it was free. I filled out the form it did not ask for credit card info or anything related. I then received a backstage pass v.i.p card. That was months ago. I just looked over my credit card statement and was wondering what was charging me $11.99 monthly. I googled the companies name, and it came up with a bunch of scams with f.y.e backstage pass. people have been scammed with false advertising from this company. apparently this is only free for a month then you HAVE to call to cancel or else you get this re-occurring charge of $11.99 a month. this is sad that a company is using these tactics to scam people out of payments every month.

Product_Or_Service: F.Y.E BACKSTAGE PASS V.I.P

Account_Number: [redacted]

Desired Settlement: DesiredSettlementID: Refund

This company needs to cancel these unwanted subscriptions to their backstage pass program, and refund all the innocent people they have scammed. They also need to fix their advertising and clearly state that you will be charged for the services. This company deserves to be sued for this false advertising.

Review: After buying tickets to a concert in December, I was given the option to receive a $25 rebate if I signed up for TLG Great Fun company. I signed up for the first free month and cancelled a week later so that I wouldn't be charged anything. I noticed a charge for 16.99 in March on my bank account statement, and I looked through previous statements to confirm that the charge has been every month since I was had contact with TLG Great Fun. I have confirmation codes of my cancellation, but I am still being charge for a service I have no interest in. Their charges amount to 52.97 from December to March.

Product_Or_Service: Nothing

I would like a refund of $60 for services I was charged plus needing a new credit card to stop their charges. I have the bank statements and my cancellation number with TLG Great Fun upon request.

Review: I called to setup a car rental they would then transfer me to some lady with a spiel. Repeating herself over and over they told us to try it for 30 days and if within 30 days you don't want it cancel it. After having it for 1 day and realizing this was a scam I called to cancel. 1 person said call back in 48 hours I did another said it takes 72 hours another said it takes 2 weeks. I want it cancelled and they are refusing to do so. This is nothing but a scam and they need to be investigated. There stealing and making it nearly impossible to cancel. The people who work for this company need to realize its more then making a paycheck if they were in our shoes they would feel the same way.

Review: I was given a offer to try their services great fun through tiger direct web site and said for $20 we check it out, they took credit card number and been trying to reach them the phones are always busy or long hold times as a disabled senior this is not seem right and very stressful. I was worried they charge my card again for something that is useless to us. I been emailing them about this but they quit responding so that makes us more concern. One of these companies that get your card and charge up way more then you get over a years time, as many end up forgetting they order it. Trial OnlyDesired Settlement: I do not want our credit card charge and hope they get better customer contact still unsure of someone who gets your credit card and charges over a year time ends up being more then they will ever safe.

Response:

I hope this will resolve all issues and no charges as it was done within 30 days. A least there is a record just did not like there were two possible charges and rebate ad only noted one.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

Sincerely,

Review: I signed up with an online entertainment company called Great Fun which offers savings on all sorts of entertainment and shopping services. I signed for a one month trial and since I found that I did not really use the services, I cancelled the membership before the trial period expired. If I had not cancelled during the trial period, the monthly fee would have been $16.99. They had my credit card details to make the monthly charge if I had stayed with the membership.

As part of the membership to Great Fun, unbeknownst to me I was also signed into another membership for an organisation called Shoppers Advantage, which also claims to provide savings and cheap deals in the shopping domain.

Both Great Fund and Shoppers Advantage are owned by the Trilegiant Corporation which are part of the Affinion Group.

So without my knowledge I was also signed into Shoppers Advantage which began charging my credit card for an additional $16.99 per month after I cancelled the Great Fun membership on June 1 of this year. Unfortunately I only notices this debit on my credit card this month (3 months later), and noting that the charge was to the parent company of Great Fund, called them to ask why my credit card was still being charged. They informed me that this charge was not from them but from a whole other company, a 'sister' company called Shopper's Advantage that I was also signed up with. This is how I ascertained what had occurred with the various memberships.

I telephoned Shopper's Advantage and explained that I was not aware that I was a member and I did not wish to be a member and would like the charges for the last 3 months to be re-credited to my credit card. After enduring another sales pitch where they offered me more discounts and a lower membership fee, I reaffirmed that I wished to cancel the membership and have my fees re-credited. They told me that the membership was now cancelled and that they would put in a request to credit me back what they had charged my credit card, it would take about a week to do so.

While I am hopeful that they will re-credit my card and cancel my membership, I am not sure if it will actually happen and I also feel that I should not have to be put in this position. Further, how many other consumers are being forced into a membership with this online service that they did not request? To my mind, considering that both of these organisations are owned by the same parent company, this is patently a deliberate ploy to force consumers into joining and paying for a service that they did not want in the first place. Not to mention the stress and time-consuming work that needs to be done to sort this out.Desired Settlement: First, I would appreciate the company, Shopper's Advantage, ensure that they refund the money that they charged to my credit card.

Second, I would like to see their business practices investigated, specifically how they entice consumers to join one organisation while signing them up to another (which they also own) which will add charges onto the consumers' credit card without their knowledge. Further, when this is brought to their attention they state that this is another company which is ultimately nothing to do with them. I find this practice deliberately misleading.

Review: I recently noticed a reoccurring charge of $19.99 and $21.95 for Trilegiant and called [redacted]. I had no idea who or what Trilegiant was and looked back at each month's statement and noticed that they had been billing me since last June. When I spoke with a representative from [redacted], they were able to contact a representative from Trilegiant, and he said that I had signed up for their program early last year. Do I remember what it was. The answer is "No." I asked what it was that I purchased and they said that they could not disclose that information. They said that the most they can do is refund me 4 x each amount and cancel any further charges. I asked how many e-mails they sent me and to that the representative from Trilegiant said only 3 within a week. These e-mails could have easily ended up in my spam folder and gotten auto deleted. Also keep in mind that I was a grad student whose father-in-law passed away from an accident July of last year. I am sure Trilegiant has no remorse to either of those statements. I asked if I set up an account to justify the charges and the answer to that was "No." Ok, so I did not set up an account, I only "received" 3 e-mails (probably in my spam [auto-delete]), I was not notified any other way (phone call [I still have the same #]), my father-in-law passed away, I had to pay for grad school, and they get to keep almost a year's worth of $40/month for nothing. Hopefully my complaint at least warns others that if you get a phone call or see an ad for additional savings, don't fall for it or this company. Also, take a lesson from me, and question every monthly, re-occuring charge(s).Desired Settlement: I would like to see Trilegiant in addition to 4 refunds of $21.95 and 4 refunds of $19.99, refund me for every charge that they made.

Review: I never signed to receive additional insurance from your company. When I found out about this being taken directly out of my checking account, I contacted your office and requested for it to be cancelled and my money to be reimbursed. I called on March 11, 2014 and spoke with a woman who assured me this was cancelled and she would send out a form for me to fill out for a refund. I also requested proof that I signed anything. Your company did refund me some money stating I was enrolled in a family plan and should have been enrolled in an individual plan. Again I called and explained I never requested this insurance and requested a full refund of all monies taken. I was denied this and also denied receiving proof that I signed for this.Desired Settlement: I am requesting a full refund of all money taken from my checking account concerning this insurance policy.

Review: TLGGREATFN, under the parent company of Affinion Group LLC, charged $19.99 to my [redacted] credit card from (by their own admission) Jan. 9, 2012 until this month April 2014. I did not solicit this charge, don't know what their product is. I thought these were gas station purchases. I was clearly defrauded. Internet searches revealed they're the target of at least one class action lawsuit. I'd like to join, but didn't know which sites were legitimate.Desired Settlement: $19.99 x 2 years= $479.76. A representative from my [redacted] fraud division helped me contact TLG today. TLG agreed to refund 1 year's worth of the fraudulent charges ($239.18) as a "courtesy". That leaves @240.58. I'd like that as well. How can these people operate with impunity?

Review: After purchasing my airfare ticket through allegiant a $50 rebate pops, call ###-###-####. After signing up, I realized how it was too good to be true & did research. A lot of reviews say its a scam, including [redacted] news. To avoid the headache I wanted to call and cancel my "new membership". Their voice recording came on, calling themselves [redacted] instead & that number was ###-###-####. It said they are open EST from 8am to 10pm M-F, which would mean 3am to 5pm [redacted] time, it was 4:38pm in [redacted] when I called. They are also listed as Trilegiant Corporation. I spoke with [redacted] to sign up for my membership. Other numbers in association with this company was ###-###-#### and they said their office hours are M-F 8am-5pm EST, you can also inquire for employment.Desired Settlement: I just dont want them to take money out of my [redacted] card. I spoke to my band & let the credit card company know too. I figured there should be a list of known companies to watch out for, those grey area companies. [redacted]

Response:

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. Thank you for your quick response. Just to clarify, we have been charged again on 8/14 for the amount of $16.99 (which has been credited back to the account in early Sept), and my husband, [redacted] did call in June, before the 30 day trial period was up, to cancel, but this has not been notated and we were getting charged after that. I understand that this has been since resolved, and we will not be charged again.

Sincerely,

Review: I phoned to make hotel reservations with [redacted] and got transferred through to two separate companies, wound up signing up for a trial period under the confusion of the call. They set up monthly 16.99 charges to my bank card, which I just cancelled after discovering.Desired Settlement: I've found many complaints against this company online. I don't really expect to receive a rebate, but I want my complaint heard.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

Review: I was called by a telemarketer representing TLG Great Fun and TLG Shopper's Advantage. I was sent some information regarding a membership and was charged $1. I was told that cancelation information would be in the information they sent me. I received one packet, I canceled my membership immediately upon receipt of the packet. They refund a charge. I now have two more charges from two different companies show up on my account this month. I have since canceled those as well and am awaiting a refund. I am told that TLG is the parent to more than 40 companies and depending on how many this telemarketer signed me up for, I will have to cancel each one individually. This seems like a huge scam and they made me ask 4 times before they agreed to cancel.

Desired Settlement: DesiredSettlementID: Other (requires explanation)

At this time, assuming all of my money is refunded, I don't require any further settlement. I believe that this company is engaging in dishonest and bait and switch type behavior and hope they are punished for it soon. If I don't receive my refund or if I continue to be charged for this "service" I will be asking the Revdex.com to step in.

Review: I have made airline reservations on October 29 2014. I had an advertisement pop on the screen saying I would save 50$ of the ticket. I called the toll free number when they answered, the lady got my information and credit card information she did say they will send out a 50$ gift card to my home, then she set up for another program it was the shoppers advantage service too the same thing I was going to get 50$. Needless to say I have not received neither 1 of the 2 50$ gift cards. They did give a 30 day trial on both services, it did take an act of congress to cancel both of them. I just want them to be held accountable for their actions and want the gift cards. here is the number for the shoppers advantage its ###-###-####.Desired Settlement: DesiredSettlementID: Other (requires explanation)

I want the 2 50 dollar gift cards that was supposed to be sent to me for signing up for this companies two services. It should have been sent out already and should not take six weeks or more to get. Also these 2 companies should not be shoving other products or forcing them to keep their services.
