This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I ask for a free download ringtones. a few days later I started receiving jokes on my cell phone. a text message came that said lsw subscription renewed @5.99 /weekly or 23.96 a month. I texted back and I don't want to renew. They sent back a text that said sorry ur command is not recognized. What a scam!

I totally agree with the prsons who complaining because I have also been charged for so something I did not or will not order. This subscription was nothing I wanted or needed, I did not authorize any charges to be deducted from my go phone like I have said before I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF THIS COMPANY WOULD PUT MY MONEY BACK ON MY CELL PHONE. I DO NOT WANT YOU TO SEND ME A CHECK I WNAT MY MONEY POSTED BACK TO MY PHONE JUST AS FAST AS YOU TOOK IT OFF!

I did not realize that there was going to be charges of 9.99 on my phone! I did not authorize this! I did not appreciate adding 20 to my phone, and it being taken away because of this!

I received a message on myspace that stated free ringtone but once you get it, they also sign you up for tehre service automatically and u have to pay 9.99 a month. Luckily I kept the # they sent along with it and was able to cancel over the phone.

WOW. THIS SITE IS SUPPOSE TO "STOP!" THE RINGTONE I NEVER RECIEVED THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN FREE. THAT WAS BULL! I ASSUME THAT I AM ONLY WRITING TO VENT MY FRUSTRATION, SOME HOW I FEEL SPRINT IS ALSO REPONSIBLE FOR ALLOWING THIS BOGUS COMPANY TO BE USED, TO GET MORE MONEY FROM ITS CUSTOMERS, NOW THAT IS SAD. I HOPE THAT I WILL NOT BE BILLED NEXT MONTH.

i got scammed by them also. the verizon people were very helpful in getting rid of them off my phone. you text message to the number 717-69 and then text stop. it will stop your charges and subscription. do it fast or it will show up on your bill. You can also have Verizon block those kinds of texts.

On July 4th I received a text message saying to receive a complementary free ringtone reply yes to 71769. I replied yes only to receive a free ringtone, next thing I know these scam artists took 9.99 out of my account balance with virgin mobile. Today not even ten minutes ago I spent about a half an hour with this stupid customer service representative who went on about how they dont do refunds.They are dead wrong because I didnt get a complementary ringtone or any ringtone period from them and they still dont want to refund my money. that ### got me pissed off. Ringtone Times is really a scam.

I have recv'd at least 7 msgs in the last 3 minutes, after clicking on free download. When i saw that it was not free, i backed out. And still have all these god awefull msg coming to my phone. I do not want to be charged for this crap! I have replied that i do not want these, and it says that my "command is not recognized". Heaven forbid if this goes on my bill!

It said FREE complimentary ringtone. I clicked on it and it asked for my cell phone number. I put that in and then it asked me to put in the pin number that it sent. In the message with the pin number it said, " Enter it online and download at ringtonetimes.com! or txt YES. 20 downloads Value Club Combo@ 19.99/monthly.cxl txt stop.info txt HELP." I did NOT text YES! I did NOT want monthly downloads! I wanted ONE FREE ringtone! I entered the pin number and it sent me a text message that said, " UR subscribed 2 value club combo. 20 credits billed. $19.99/monthly" I want this charge removed! I didnt even get my free ringtone! I OWE NOTHING!
