Classmates review: automatic deduction without my knowledge 27

This company is absolutely the worst company ever to deal with! I signed up a year ago but specifically checked to make sure that they were not going to automatically take any fees from me! This morning, I noticed that they did automatically renew my membership! I cancelled immediately and called them to have them credit my account back. They refused, saying I agreed to the automatic withdrawl, which I know I did not! Most companies will just cancel and refund your fee. This comapny is nothing but a scam! I thought they were reputable... Pft! Not in the least!

I quickly called my credit card company to dispute the $19.95 charge from this company because I did not authorize it. While AP9 is indeed a legitimate company, it is like a sneaky leech or parasite with online companies you DO do business with. For example, I did purchase a membership with Classmates.com - unbeknownst to me - this identity protection service was attached for a "trial" period.

My credit card rep initiated a conference call with an AP9 rep and the charge was instantly removed - NO HASSLE! Apparently this happens quite often without the consumer's knowledge.

I foolishly signed a 3months membership with Classmates.com and the charge was on my account, but there was a charge from Homesavings Mall in Feb, Mar and now Apr for $19.95. Upon calling Homesavings Mall they said I signed for their service on Classmates.com. I did not. I am having April reversed and working with my back on the other charges, which I protested and now have re-protested. Stay away from Classmates.com. Bad for legit on line companies. They operate a scam.

I myself have just got off of the phone with the people who i purchased a pay as you go credit card and i am thinking that my last money $200.00 was on my card, which i only use for small purchases, and little things.Well much to my surprize money was deducted from my credit card whichi knew nothing about, the reason being that i received no information, written(mail)or otherwise thru other communication means letting me know that these funds were being deducted.All of the money transactions were done on lines...bad move on my part...so i will give up my credit card if nothing but for the sake of my own sanity and reasoning, and not to become a part of this countries big MACK game.For those who dont know, the MACK is where a person is lead to believe that they are getting alot of something for a little of nothing, and here is why this country and its people are in the situation they are in today(sic). I will just chalk this experiance (loss), up to experiance and rely on my god to give me guidance.

this is the second time classmates.com billed my credit card with out me approval, i did not sign up for automatic renewal and now i want to cancel all toegether. i want this charge removed from my credit card today.

Send me a picture. If you okay looking, I'll take you out.

I was charged twice when I renewed my subsription in June When I called my credit card company, the told me to call Classmates and told me their phone number is on the bill. When I caled Classmates .com, I was told to go to Classmates.com/ billing. That is where I am now . Yesterday, I sent an e-mail to the m explaining what happpened. I have not heard from them yet.

Stated we had an auto-renewal and deducted $39.00 twice (Once for me and once for husband) in the middle of christmas shopping season. Can't contact them. Going to protest through the bank. Bad billing practices!

My credit card was charged for 59.00 for which I did not renew nor was I asked to renew. I did sign up in 2017 on some trial basis, knowing that I had a 50 yr reunion coming up in June of that year . I have tried to call their number and they just hang up.

So you said hello and they just hung up? What did you say to make them hang up?

WWW.MYLIFE.COM...WWW.REUNION.COM ...WWW.MYLIFE.COM

I am an attorney researching the business practices of WWW.MYLIFE.COM, WWW.REUNION.COM and WWW.MYLIFE.COM . I am interested in their practices as it relates to the unauthorized SCRAPING OF EMAIL ADDRESS BOOKS.

Pending my review, consideration of legal action shall be evaluated. I located your complaint from a google search of all those complaining about reunion.com and my life.com . Any information you may provide would be helpful so as for me to understand the issues, but response should not be considered as developing an attorney-client relationship. I merely need to obtain information.

Here's a few questions:
1) Did you join the dating portion of these sites and have any issues and concerns?

2) were you enticed to visit any of these websites after an email came to you, appearing like it was from a friend, inviting you to join?

3) do you feel the terms of service and privacy policy noted on the site explained what exactly they were going to do to your email addresses?

4) Were your email address contacts emailed an invitation to join after receiving an invitation which claimed you sent them the invite?

5) how has your involvement damaged your reputation or any finacial losses?

6) Were you contacted by any other companies associated with any of these sites claiming that you had joined their site also, being sent marketing info from companies, ASKING FOR YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER, OR RECEIVING MONTHLY CHARGES TO YOUR TELEPHONE BILL?

So as to support my interest and qualify my identity, I would refer you to a few of my recent cases I filed, so that you can confirm that I do represent individuals in internet privacy matters. Google my recent cases:

lane v facebook,
valentine v nebuad
simon v adzilla
slater v tagged.com

Once you locate these cases, review the atorneys noted, and then confirm I have the same email as the attorney noted on the lawsuit:

you renewed my classmates account without authorization in the amount of 15.00.please refund to my credit card or ill notify the attorney general and the better business bureau. thank you jenniffer kay harr

I did not authorize a subscription renewal. Your policy of having an automatic renewal is a scam. I've been unemployed since the end of April 2017, with nothing coming in not even unemployment. I have less than a seventy dollars in my checking account and I need every bit of it for FOOD. Not for a subscription that I seldom use. Please refund the entire $39.00 or receive the wrath of my bad publicity to all my fellow classmates, friends and family members.

Classmates.Com made an unauthorize charge to my cr card for subscription renewal. Their policy of having an automatic renewal is a scam. I did not sign up for automatic renewal of my acct. Their refusal to credit my acct for this unautorized charge is nothing short of robbery. Please refund the entire $39.00 . I hope other people see these complaints about Classmates before they too become subjects to Classmates pilfering of their accounts.

Please be careful with the Gold Membership with Classmates.com. They gave me a special deal last year and you have to sign up for automatic renewal. You are allowed to go back in and change it to manual which I did. Somehow, it got changed back and they charged my credit card $39.00. They will not refund your money back either so you will have to post a dispute with your credit card company. I feel like this is the reason they want you to sign the automatic renewal. How do they keep staying in business when they do this?

you renewed my classmates account without authorization in the amount of 39.00.
Please refund to my credit card or ill notify the attorney general and the better business bureau.

Thank you

Its not in Fine print. It is bold and highlighted in yellow directly above the submit button when you are purchasing your membership. It is In the same size font as the rest of the page. All you have to do is follow the instructions they give you to change your account to Manual. So if you purchase a membership online use the instructions that are provided for you so your account will not renew at the current rate of $39 not the promotional rate you were given . Classmates fee's are non-refundable and that is alo put in bold and highlighted. You have no one to blame but yourself and your lack of reading skills. I don't pity any of you, suck it up people. You made a mistake and it cost you money. If you want to see the exact payment page for yourself click on the help link in classmates and than click on payment options, choose the payment option you signed up with and read. The copyright for this page format started in 1995. No lawyer will touch this if he wants to make any $

By the way your bank may do a chargeback but it will be contested by classmates and your bank will simply pull the charge back out when the contract is presented.

classmates.com solicited me for membership with their company on 5/4/10. the advertised price that I entered was changed from $2.69 to $59.00. classmates.com fleeced my checking/debit account and refuse to answer their phone. I want that amount removed from my account. TODAY! ken king, pobox 2506, Fort Bragg. Ca. 95437

I am actually complaining about 2 websites that just automatically took money out of my account without authorization. Classmates.com and Norton Anti Virus.
This is unethical when you trust someone with your account information for previous charges to just asssume because you didn't get back to them that it is ok to take money out of your account for renewal fees. Alot of time I just don't have the time to read every email which is what they are banking on ( literally). Unless they get a positive response from me about a renewal they should not just automatically assume that they can take my money. Because of this assumption my account was charged and some small bills I needed to pay where comprised! I am really unhappy about this and now I have to wait for a refund!

I need help... If you are not able to transfer my classmates gold membership over to my yahoo account, will you please switch it back to my previous account (Hbluetucson@msn.com) otherwise it you can't do that and it doesn't work, I want my money refunded for the 2-yr membership I paid out to you, I have only been able to use this account for a little under 2 months.

To me, it seems like a scam. Changing emails for the account should not be such a difficult task.

Please take this into consideration. If I have to, I will consult a lawyer and my bank!

Thank you for your cooperaition in this matter.

Thank you sincerely and god bless - rhonda/ronnie bauer

Just saw where there is a $39.00 debit pending on my checking account...
I did not authorize this debit and want to know why and for what?

Same thing happened to me! I just now filed a complaint with my bank concerning this unauthorized charge.Classmates said they could do nothing for me!

I am having the same problem with Classmates.com

Do you have an account with them ? If not then report it to your bank as a unauthorized charged then move on :)
