Review: Apparently, when you Shop On-Line for certain products there is a "Survey" after in which you can "Opt-In" for this Shoppers Advantage Company which is some type of On-Line Store and they Charge You a $16.99 Fee. My understanding is that they get your Credit Card / Debit Card Info from the site (another company) that you are purchasing from On-Line then keep the info and bill you without your authorization. . . The big Issue is that I don't remember signing up. They bait you with coupon offers they are supposed to send you, and when I called the first time to cancel it didn't happen and I was billed a second time. . .This time I called my bank and they informed me that because the debit is less than $25 that they can "fight" it but I might not see that money?? I called Shoppers Advantage again and asked them to cancel, received a Cancellation Confirmation Number and when I asked them if they could reverse this new charge I was told that I wasn't entitled to a refund due to the terms. . .UGHDesired Settlement: I would just like the $16.99 they debited my Checking Account for back.

Review: After cancelling a "free" coupon card from Great Fun prior to the incredibly small printed date about a monthly fee, I was given a cancellation code. However, I was later informed that there was an additional service that the representative "didn't have access to" according to the supervisor, [redacted], which continued to debit my checking account a monthly fee of $16.99. [redacted] assured me that there are no other services on the account. We'll see with next month's bank statement.

Desired Settlement: DesiredSettlementID: No settlement requested - for

Supervisor claims that a refund will be issued within 7-10 business days. Poor business practice, sneaky and deceitful.

Review: I was told by this company that my husband agreed to a trial of their WatchGuard service on our [redacted] credit card. My husband doesn't even do bill or anything of this nature. But I went along with it becasue they said the trail was only $1.00 for 30 days. So I checked my statments in May, June and July of 2011 and the only charge was $1.00. And there was no charge in August or September this charge showed up on the October bill? So I though this was the end of it. It is my fault as to not inspecting my statements sooner but now I have found out that they started charging my credit card on August of 2011 and continue to charge it until I called again this month. I have reqeusted copies of statements from [redacted] and have them in my possession. If I get no results from them on a full refund what do I need to do? They are vey cleaver in not charging one one months bill and then charge 2 months bill on one bill.

Desired Settlement: DesiredSettlementID: Refund

I would like a full refund of the amount they have charged my account from August 2011 through March 2013. Each month a charge was added for $8.95. The total amount is $170.05. I would also agree to a credit to my Exxon card in that amount. If any other charges occur in the future or I have to hire a lawyer I want these charges covered also.

cc: [redacted], (carrier representative)

Took advantage of my elderly father. He is hard of hearing after serving in the Korean War. They would call to ask if he wanted to increase his coverage and because he was not able to hear he would say yes. When I realized what had happened I asked them for copies of the conversations that took place & a refund. Of course no response after I cancelled them.

Review: [redacted] has been charging my [redacted] credit card for a service I did not authorize. They claim that [redacted] informed them I authorized this service, but that is incorrect. I learned of this issue a few months back and called to resolve it at that time, but it was apparently not resolved and due to a billing address error, I was unaware that my card was still being charged and have now encountered a delinquency issue with [redacted] which they have reported to a credit bureau. [redacted] has now stated they are closing the account and giving me some refund, however they are declining to reach out to the [redacted] liaison to explain the issue and encourage [redacted] to correct this with the credit bureau.Desired Settlement: Want to be sure promised refund is placed back on [redacted] card and that [redacted] goes back to [redacted] to inform them of this issue and have [redacted] correct it with credit bureau. [redacted] claims only [redacted] can do this.

Review: I am the son of [redacted]. AutoVantage is enticing the elderly population offering them free gift cards if they will try out their service. Ms. [redacted] policy # [redacted] has dementia and has not owned a vehicle in over 10yrs.They lured her into trying their service with a 40.00 gift card from [redacted] because she has purchased things from them before. I feel that AutoVantage is using unfair business tactics targeting the elderly who have no knowledge of what they are getting into. It is extremely upsetting to even think how many other people have fell for this offer. It ought to be a federal crime to entice the elderly or people with dementia with offers for services that they don't even ask if the person or person's have a vehicle that they drive on the paperwork. This is fraud in my book.And yes I am her son and I HAVE POWER OF ATTORNEY OVER HER. If she ever receives anymore offers from AutoVantage, there will be a lawyer involved.Desired Settlement: I would like AutoVantage to refund Ms [redacted]) the full amount that she has paid them and not take out for the gift card to [redacted].

I've spent over 2 hours on the phone with customer service now and they claim they are unable to locate my account and to stop the charges. At their request, I faxed over my bank statement showing the charge and showing my bank information where they do automatic withdrawal's from my account. It has been over 4 weeks now and today my bank account was charged again.When I called to complain they gave me the same run around, "we can't find your account". When I notify them how it is that they can't find my account yet they have my bank information to pull money from my account, they say they "deeply apologize but that they have to research it".How much longer do they have to research this while they continue to charge me?Desired Settlement: I'd like a refund for the money that was charged to me for this month and for Affinion Group to cease all further charges to my account.

Review: 8/9/2013 I became customer of Shopper Incentive from which I am to receive, per phone rep prompted to call in order to claim, $20 rebate which is immediately doubled to $40. I am informed per screen prompt while placing my order online with [redacted]. I can apply to order I'm in the process of finalizing, as incentive for joining for $1 with a 30 day trial period. Through email 8/11 was instructed to register.I did so. I called rep who assured purchase would qualify for rebate. I learn rebate coming US mail & not to be instantly applied to current purchase as promised via prompt. The next day I receive another email from Great Fun having same identifying information instructing I log in. After repeated attempts was unable to. I call rep & learn member number is off by 1 digit-ending in 7 rather than 6. Rep exclaims "you've been chosen for 2 programs"an additional monthly payment of $16.To insure I get the $40 I inquire as to the incentive on the new account-it's $40. Just by chance, I inquire about the incentive on the 1st account into which I registered the prior day, Shoppers Advantage,per instructions, & am informed it's a $5 gas rebate. If I had not asked I would be out the promised rebate by cancelling the 2nd offer to avoid the additional billing, as I'm sure all consumers do. I cancelled the 1st offer. I'm informed the funds are 2 coupons redeemable a month apart-in other words if I cancel within the specified time I get only the 1st $20 coupon. Shopper Advantage and Great Fun have all the same identifying information as the company referenced (i.e Trilegiant). I've received nothing via mail, and have all emails and receipts to render upon request.

Consumer Response /* (3000, 7, 2013/08/20) */

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT ACCEPT the response from the business.)

No mention is made of TWO accts, until one calls in for being unable to log in to the originating acct. but for the change of one digit (?)from that acct. #, and there is no mention of associating rebates or that the two accounts are even related for that matter. THE COMPANY'S RESPONSE DID NOT ADDRESS THIS PHENOMENON. One does not realize that by cancelling the second acct. to avoid further billing they are, in fact, cancelling the promised $40. rebate account in exchange for miniscule gas receipts (?) applicable to the initial acct. (prime example of "switch and bate" practices). Worth noting, as of this date 8/20 I've received NOTHING from this company (even though the prompt reads "to be applied to this order", and to which verbal response is "will be notified by email"). Even if I received something from this company in today's US mail, and even though I have all my receipts printed out in preparation of a same day return, the claim could not possibly make the return trip, much less be processed, in time to qualify for the initial $20 rebate prior to the thirty day trial running out (accounting for the implied email response as all consumers would otherwise realize the above-sited impossibility and would thereby not respond to this entrapment), TO WHICH THE COMPANY'S RESPONSE ALSO DID NOT ADDRESS. Despite when, or if, I receive the promised materials, I will follow the instructions and render, certified, return receipt, proof of purchase and mailing. I will forward this documentation to this reporting institution as proof of my claim. I would like the company to address these "specific" issues rather than DEFLECTING INTO TOPICS THAT ARE NOT A PART OF THIS CLAIM!! Wouldn't it be interesting to learn the ratio of those submitting a purchase claim to those who actually receive the $40, or even the initially computer prompt driven $20. rebate? The only action I would like is that this company be sited for their behavior so as to protect future consumers from their ilk! Thank goodness for reporting agencies like the Revdex.com and Internet Crime Bureaus etc.!

Consumer Response /* (-5, 8, 2013/08/20) */

To date I have not received any referenced US mail transmittal's, as promised, from any of the three "associated" companies. Irregardless of the time I do receive them (if I do) understanding full-well they could not qualify under the timing limitations for the promised rebates even if I received them today, I will nonetheless certify and return receipt forward the materials to the responding company and will keep the Revdex.com posted as to the outcome of my claim. It's not the rebate funds I care about, it's the principles of this behavior I'm most interested in. Despite the expense to myself, if it saves but one consumer from this fraud, then, it is worth it. I will also notify the Revdex.com if I receive NO US mailings from any of these associated companies!

Consumer Response /* (4200, 12, 2013/09/04) */

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)

"MEMBERSHIP" IN EITHER, or neither, ACCOUNT IS NOT AT ISSUE!!

"BATE AND SWITCH" is against the law, THAT IS THE ISSUE: Given this my 3rd accounting (see below), without trilegiant's adamant proclamation of their innocense to THIS issue; which most companies would make their first priorty in protecting their reputation, smacks of guilt.

REPEAT OF SEQUENCE OF EVENTS FOLLOWS:

An email arrives instructing how to become a member so as to claim the 20.00 rebate. After the participant complies, another email is forwarded from the same company instructing login. After several attempts the client realizes they can't log in (but for change, not noticeable, of the last didget of a lengthy account number) and is then instructed to call for assistance. At this time the caller is given a speal about being "chosen" for two accounts. The second account is rather silly so most people turn it down without being informed they have just anulled their 20.00 rebate.

Review: I was in contact with [redacted] who forward my information to this company. I was told that I could not receive my refund, but they sent coupons. I have no problem returning the coupons and receive my refund. Although it's not much $1.00. It's the principle. I filed a complain with [redacted] so whomever return my refund I would appreciate it.Desired Settlement: I would like to be refunded the charge of $1.00

Review: This company had enlisted my enrollment with their "service" through a metaphorical sleight-of-hand business tactic. I had purchase something a few months back and at that time, through purchasing that item, TLG Buyers advantage (and ALL TLG "companies" that use the same business tactic), dishonestly and stealthily signed me up for a monthly subscription to their "service." I had not received any confirmation of membership, notification of enrollment, billing statements, calls, mail, email, confirmation page during the purchase, or any other form of communication notifying me that they had signed me up for their services. I had not (knowingly) given consent for this service, nor had I received any of the "services" they claim to offer. I had emailed them, and attempted to contact them and had been placed on hold for over 25 minutes. I had not received any response as of yet (Initial email was sent on the 12th.) This company and all its related sub-companies of Affinion group should be shut down in my opinion. Their only purpose is to give reason for consumes to periodically review their billing statements.

Review: On March 14, 2013 I signed up to be a member of Traveler's Advantage to receive savings on hotels and travel. [redacted] was the agent that told me I would receive a coupon for $40 on the upcoming hotel stay in [redacted] on March 22-24, 2013. The coupon would take 6-8 weeks to arrive in the mail, he said. When the coupon arrived, it said the $40 would be issued for my NEXT hotel stay not the one I just had. On March 20 I called again and spoke with [redacted] to tell her about the error. She said she would have the correct coupon sent. Again the wrong coupon was sent, so I called on April 3, 2013 and spoke with [redacted] (user ID #XXXXX) to tell her about the incorrect coupon. She said she was mailing two $20 coupons that day. On April 11, 2013 I received the same $40 coupon I had before stating that the $40 would apply to my NEXT hotel stay! On April 12 I spoke with [redacted] and asked to speak with her supervisor. [redacted] assured me he would have the correct coupon sent and he extended my trial membership to July 1st. He said the rebate form would be sent that day. On April 20 I received the wrong coupon again. This time it said I would get 40% off my next hotel stay! On April 22 I spoke with [redacted] who insisted that she would guarantee the correct coupon would be sent! She said the trial period was only extended to June 26th, not July 1st as [redacted] said. Here it is May 9th and I received the wrong coupon again! I spoke with [redacted] this time and she said I could leave a message with her supervisor. I asked the name and she said she didn't know. I asked why she wouldn't know the name of her supervisor, and then she gave me the name of [redacted] Siegel. I left a message demanding a refund of $40 to my credit card.

Thank you for your correspondence regarding [redacted]'s concerns with her Travelers Advantage membership, a service provided by Trilegiant Corporation.

The offer for enrolling into the Travelers Advantage service entitled Ms. [redacted] to a $40 rebate on her next hotel stay. In order to avail herself of the promotional offer, Ms. [redacted] was required to return the rebate form that was included in her membership kit or sent to the e-mail provided during the enrollment process along with a receipt from her hotel stay. Upon receipt of the completed rebate form and receipt, a $40 check would have been delivered within 4-6 weeks.

We regret that there was any confusion regarding the terms of our offer. Our records indicate that on May 10th, 2013, Ms. [redacted] was in contact with our Office of the President regarding this matter. In order to uphold our high level of customer satisfaction, Ms. [redacted] was advised by the Office of the President to fax us a copy of her hotel receipt from her recent stay, and a $40 check would be issued. We have received Ms. [redacted]'s fax, and we have requested to have a $40 check sent to her. She should receive the check within the next 2-3 weeks.

In addition, Ms. [redacted]'s Travelers Advantage is currently active. If she would like to have her membership canceled she may contact us and we can process her request.

We apologize for any inconvenience that Ms. [redacted] may have experienced and hope that this matter has been resolved to her satisfaction.

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT ACCEPT the response from the business.)

What is written in the response is not true. The only confusion came from employees not telling the truth or doing their job. As originally stated, I received the incorrect rebate form repeatedly which is why I couldn't send it in with my receipt. Never was I told that I could email a scanned copy of the receipt. Why it took 2 months and at least a dozen phone calls before I was told I could fax the receipt without a rebate form just goes to show the inconsistency and incompetence of this company. Here it is 2 weeks after faxing the receipt and the check still hasn't been mailed. I called today to find out if it had been mailed and the representative told me I have to fax the receipt and gave me a different fax number than the first time! Upon transferring me to the Office of the President once again, I was told I didn't have to do that. Will anyone get it straight!?? Until I receive my check, I will not confirm that this issue is settled. If I were being paid for all my time and anguish in regards to this company, I'd be rich!

Thank you for your correspondence regarding [redacted]'s additional concerns with her Travelers Advantage membership, a service provided by Trilegiant Corporation.

Our standard procedure for redeeming rebates is for the member to return the rebate form that is included in their membership kit or sent to the email provided during the enrollment process along with a receipt from their purchase. This is why Ms. [redacted] was not originally told that she could email or fax her receipts to us without the rebate form. However, Ms. [redacted] was in contact with our Office of the President on May 10th, 2013, and an exception was made to allow her to fax us a copy of her receipts without the rebate form. Also, on May 22nd, 2013, in our response to Ms. [redacted]'s complaint, we gave her the option of emailing a copy of her receipts to us. Our records show that on May 30th, 2013, a $40 check was mailed to Ms. [redacted]. She should receive this check shortly.

In addition, Ms. [redacted]'s Travelers Advantage is currently active. If she would like to have her membership canceled, she may contact us and we can process her request.

Review: I bought an item from television ad for $10.00 with my debit card and was connected by two high pressure salesmen to receive numerous free gifts by purchasing their services. I was not told that this was to be an ongoing monthly debit from my bank. I was not told that I needed to cancel before the end of the month. I was promised numerous free gifts that I did not receive. I unwisely failed to view my bank statement until over $1200 was paid. I called to cancel and request my money back for not using any of their services and so far. They told me that two months payments were deposited back to my bank, and that I should send them a written letter to recover the rest. I faxed a writen letter and nothing has been deposited back to my bank. The only correspondence I received from them was a letter saying that I confirmed the purchases by pressing buttons on my phone. I had no idea they were going to debit my bank every month. Please help. Thank you!

Review: In mid-April 2014, I made a purchase from [redacted], and had to call customer service about a simple matter that was resolved easily. At the end of the call, they had a special offer (I'm not sure of the exact wording) and I allowed them to transfer me. It was a trail membership for shopping of some kind. I accepted the offer (apparently, it was $1.00 as I look back on credit card statements) and figured I could just cancel within a month. I did call to cancel within a month. However, a charge for $16.99 appeared on my credit card statement that I received in late June. I called and they said that there were two different companies with this sort of membership and I must have cancelled the other one. They offered to give me one month free and send me materials related to the membership. I accepted (why I didn't just cancel the whole thing, I don't know). In the coming weeks, I attempted to register on their website ([redacted]shoppersadvantage[redacted]) to see what this was all about. The site consistently could not register me and said there was an error and to try again later. I made a few calls and there were attempts back and forth to get this to work (I didn't record information on all of them, but they included calls on 8/14/2014 at about 6:05 p.m. EDT and 8/21/2014 at about 8 p.m. EDT with [redacted]). Finally, with no resolution in sight, and really wanting nothing more to do with this scam, I called on 8/26/2014 at about 6:45 p.m. EDT, spoke with [redacted], and cancelled the membership. The following week, I looked at my credit card charges online, and I had been billed again for membership on 8/27/2014.Desired Settlement: I would like the $16.99 returned for the membership charge made after I called to cancel. Although I'm upset the other charges totaling $17.99, I should have contested these back in June.
