I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
Which credit card number? It was canceled and changed three separate times to three different numbersI am no longer in possession of these cards because I had to cancel them due to fraudulent charges by Instant CheckmateI have already called the company MULTIPLE times and had given them this information each and every time over the phone and they would say they would cancel the account and each and every time I would have an additional charge to my card the next dayThis company is completely illegal and fraudulentThey changed their merchant ID multiple times to gain access to my new credit card numbers after my bank had issued a "block payment" to this company for all future transactionsThat is completely illegal and a misrepresentation of their businessCurrently in discussions with my attorney to establish a strategy for next steps and future actions against Instant Checkmate.

I searched a couple of old acquaintances on Instantcheckmate.comAs you get into specifics of course you have to payBut they have a shell game going on their website which channels you into signing you up for a recurring chargeI was a couple of months into my $per month before I noticedI did not recall their name (and incidentally the information it yielded was not very helpful)When I complained to Citi Mastercard their customer service offered to call them with me to cancelThey claimed they had a typo on my email address which is why I got no correspondence from themThey offered to refund ½ of the present month, and nothing previousIt showed up on my next CC statement and I thought I was done with themNext statement, there they are again, full chargeI called againThey are polite, but they are CROOKSThey are not in search business, they are in credit card charge businessDO NOT get involved with this company

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.I am not satisfied because, despite the refund which I understand I received, I do not accept the bait and switch routine used by this companyOnce consumers do not protest about this type of dishonest advertising, it becomes the normI am anxious that the company changes it's advertising policy, to one of a higher standard, and until they do, I will not consider my complaint resolved
