Cleverbridge review: Unauthorized/Fraudulent Check Charge 38

This company, in which, I have no idea what it is, took $49.95 out of my account on 10/06/2009. I tried to stop payment but the bank said it had already been processed and paid. What can I do?

I would like to tell anyone else that have fallen victim to Freedom Subscription to contact the Better Business Bureau. They have come through for me and got my money back. At times you have to get someone higher up to assist with collections just as a company would when they are trying to collect from you!

Thes people whom i dont know who they are are taking money out of my bank account and i am having trouble with my account being overdrawn.what can i do?

i applied for an online cash advance and this charge showed up against my checking account - i did not authorize this charge in any way. the company rep is saying that once we apply on line it is automatically going to charge this.

i did see where it asks if you are interested in several programs and i pressed the decline offer on each one and i still get this charge.

the company will not give me an online refund - say the check will be in the mail in about 30 days! In the mean time, my account has been debited and i am overdrawn! this is not right at all.

I have 4 charges like this that have popped up - can something be done about this online scam?

thank you.

This just happened to me today! My account is now overdrawn too. Im flipping out.

I had a withdrawal that was posted to my account yesterday. I went to my bank this morning, & they gave me a copy of the "check". I didn't authorize this, & it also overdrew my account. I don't need this kind of hassle.

You need to file a check fraud complaint with your bank. Tell them exactly what happened (like, maybe you were applying for a loan) and tell them that you did NOT authorize this check and they used your bank account info and signature without permission. Ask if the bank will give you a refund.

Tell the bank you'll file a local police report (and then do) and an FTC complaint (and then do). Your bank will be more willing to refund the money if you take action. Also, if the fraudulent check causes overdraft (thankfully mine did not), you can dispute the overdraft charges as well.

Hope that helps!

They also took money out without my permission how can they do that!

my name is serena lang and freedom subscription stole 49.95 out of my account made a fake check and put it though my account how do i get my money back please help

This happened to me as well on the sme day as you. I contacted my bank and they put a hold on my account and sent me over to the fraud department to file a charge. In the meantime they are going to give me a provisional credit for the 49.95 since I am filing the fraud charge and advise me that I need to close my account immediately. I think you should try to do the same with your account as well...GOOD LUCK! Be careful what you do on the internet. I learned the hard way!

just get hit from thease company and the are stol the money from my account 49.95

Freedom just stol from my account 49.95 and i have to freez my account

a site www.freedomcs.com scamed me out of 49.95 product unknown I need it replaced because I am a very low income disability now I can't pay my bills or survive I am very hurt and angry someone needs to stop them, report and sue

FREEDOM SUBSCRIPTION WITHDREW $49.95 OUT OF MY CHECKING ACCOUNT WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. I AM ALREADY IN A FINANCIAL BIND AND THEY HAD THE AUDACITY TO DO THIS, SENDING MY ACCOUNT INTO AN OVERDRAFT.

I was charged $ 8.42 out of my checking acct. from the above company. I copied a check in this amt. from my bank acct that looks like acheck that I wrote

This was not authorized and I want it put back into my acct.

I have no idea how this company got me information. However, I did apply for a payday loan and got it. But I made sure that I deleted all other losn applications from my e-mail account. I want my $8.42 back. it cost me an overdraft fee at my bank and put me in the red. I am NOT happy and would like to prevent this from happening again.

I did not request or sign up for this service. They withdrew money from my checking account using a fraudulent check. This withdrawal put my checking out into ISF and was charged a $38 overdraft fee. I expect to have Freedom Subscription refund the $8.42 they fraudulently took from my acct. and I also want my overdraft fee paid returned also.

yeah they can do it...its called an electronic signature

you people are ridiculous, how can you submit all of your information online and not expect people to start charging you. literally the whole internet has your personal information. have fun writing complaints about these petty charges and blaming others for your ignorance. seriously though who does that?

Freedom Subsciption took money out of my bank without my Permission

[protected]- they handle customer service for multiple companies (LOL, you mean you operate a company using more than one name so you can do more than one scam!) The two I know for sure they handle are: freedom subsricption and
web discount club.

I received three charges between these two companies, 8.42, 8.42, and 22.99. I got the number from my bank when I called to inquiry about the transactions. They appear as checks, but the check numbers themselves are a give away that something is astray. Have calls to make to ensure I have "cancelled" all my memberships! Oh I didn't know I asked for membership! ARGH

This company took out $8.42 of my checking account without my permission. Been trying to call [protected] and get a busy signal I think this is total bs.

i never gave anyone permission from this business to keep withdrawing $8.42 out of my checking account twice already with a fake check

I had the same problem and they continue to bill me monthly, even thought their product was not downloadable. This made it neccesary for me to again contact my bank and dispute these charges again. This was a hassle and Cleverbridge is nothing but a fraudulent company.

I have recieved notification that 8.42 has been taken out of my account at least three times. I got on the website www.freedomcs.com and talked to a live person and she explained what was going on and cancel the subscription and is refunding me my money.

I was scamed and I did not post my info on the Internet. I just opened my account last week and I looked on my acct and I had 2 fake checks on my acct from this company the day after my acct was opened. How did they get my info? I did not give out my information to anyone and I live alone..

they been taking money out of my checking account using checks, with out my permission several times already.

I am also a victim if Freedom Subscription they indeed have took money out of my account in the amount of $8.42 weekly for the past two months causing me an overdraft one time of $30.00...I have contacted this company and told them I don't know who they are or what there problem is, that I want all my money put back into my account and cancelled this is not a real business this is a SCAM... If anyone else out there is haveing problems like I am feel free to email me at Michael_Hollingsw2@eku.edu

This Company is a Fraud...I would like to file a class action lawsuit against these Criminals...This company has devited my account the last two months or so. for 8.42 and of course 49.95...I don't have a clue what this company is...I called and spoke to representative they said they would refund my money via check and cancel this unauthorized subscription...Guess again they LIED...Anyone wanna hop on board!

yes... i have chase... and they said they can't give me my money back becuz they only give you a one time courtesy... i really want to know what kind of company this is...

I noticed on my bank statement on Jul 30, 2010 that there was a check payment made out to Freedom CS that I did not agree to. The check has my email address as a signature along with the last four digits of my social security number. The check was mde out for $8.42.

THIS FAKE COMPANY MADE THEMSELVES AVAIL. TO MY ACCT AND HAVE WROTE THEMSELVES 2 FAKE CHECKS IN THE AMT OF $8.42...I CALLED THEM, THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD STOP...THEN THEY DID IT AGAIN! IN THE FIRST PLACE YOU HAVE TO WAIT FOR THEM TO CALL YOU BACK, WHICH IS LIKE 6 HOURS, AND THEN YOU CANT UNDERSTND THE PERSON SPEAKING, AND THEY HANG-UP AS SOON AS YOU TRY GETTING ANY INFO OUT OF THEM!

THEY SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH FRAUD!

YUP! Big old fashioned SCAM going on here with this company. They need to stop these practises NOW!

Three checks totaling $25.26 on my account from Freedom Subscription which I had no idea what the company even was. I contacted them and they said I approved the withdraw by filling out something online and they would immediately cancel the 'subscription' They were unable to tell me what the company is and what I 'filled' out online in order to be charged for their services
