I have recently been applying online for a loan for someone like myself with bad credit. Out of nowhere, I got a $54.95 charge from this company! I have NO IDEA what they are or why they have charged me. They used a fake check with all of my information on it, #9999. That check number is NOT in my sequence. I am in the process of filing a claim with my bank. I am going to follow the advice of someone else they ripped off that ended up getting her money back. Hopefully I can do the same! I have enough money problems as it is!

I was on line searching for a cash advance company and received an unauthorized debit from this company of which I don't recall ever seeing while on the site.

I had the same problem with this everprivate. They did it to me more than once. My bank also charged me 20.00 I have no Idea who or what this is but they need to stop taking money from people with out permission. Now I owe my bank the money they took. They keep this up I will report them and they wont take money from anyone again.

This company "EverPrivateCard" took $54.95 out of my Bank account and I didn't ok it all all. it just should up on my Bank. Plus the Bank charged me an extra $20 for over draft fees for this happening.

This company is nothing more than a bunch of thieves! I'm not even sure how they had access to my account, but it needs to stop. I called their company and was told to go on their website to request a refund, let's hope someone is honest enough to read and follow though. If anyone in America applies for any sort of e loan be very careful it may put you in more debt than you bargain for!

There was a unauthorized charge made to my account of $49.95. I never gave anyone permission to take funds out of my checking account. I am not interested in any services you have to offer. I am a full time struggling college student I had no money in my account so my bank charged me a NSF fee all because these people decided to take money out of my account. I would like my refund in full along with the $35.00 NSF fee I was charged. Again i am not interested in any services and i would like a refund of my money.

I applied for a payday loan at www.freenloanproviders.com and the next day Everprivate card took $49.95 out of my account. After contacting customer support they told me that I supposedly clicked yes to their phony Virtual-visa offer, but in fact I only closed out the Pop-Up of their offer.

I also never heard from any payday loan providers from the search service. This is TOTAL SCAM! I had to close my account.

I doubt that I'll ever see the money after reading all the other complaints and Everprivatecard's response on this sight. HOPE everyone gets the word out about these crooks. I also suggest reporting them to the B.B.B., the Police and anyone else you can think of. GOD bless.

This company took $49.95 approximately on June 27/2007 and also it brought me to overdraft of $36.00 plus everyday that goes on is $3.00 until it will come to positive. I need a solution as they say on the phone between 7 to 10 days with my refund.

I just checked my bank account and noticed charges on my statement that I did not agree to. I had the same charges as a lot of you from ever private card, they debt my account $54.95 I really feel these people need to be put to rest and am gonna see what I need to do, to start a class - action against this company, unless there is already a law suite against them. Does anyone know if there is a suite against them? If so how do I get in on it?

They debited my bank account $49.95. I've just started the wheels in motion on their website to recoup the money, but this is July 4, 2007 so no satisfaction yet.

I doubt they'll make it right, just looking at the postings against this Company, or they will try to charge a "service charge" of some unknown amount.

I NEVER HEARD OF THIS COMPANY, nor was anything authorized. THIS IS A TOTAL SCAM!

Ever Private withdrew $55.00 from my account which caused me to be accessed an overdraft fee of $31.00. I never authorized any withdrawals from my account. If the bank can not resolve my problem I will close the account and open a new account.

This company withdrew money from our checking account unauthorized, I got a hold of a phone number stayed on hold for an half an hour, then I was told I had to go online request a refund once per day for 3 days and they would refund me my money within 10 days. I emailed them at least 25 times. I got the check, no one will cash it! I called the number on the check and I was referred to their email address. Not sure what to do. Any suggestions? Does anyone know what state they are in? The attorney general needs to be notified, these people need to be stopped!

I had been on the web searching for pay day loans and i never signed up for their services but they hit me for 54.95. My bank Asheville savings put a stop payment on this transaction. Maybe this will be helpful to everyone, but they also advised me that they that may submit a different debit and then i would have to start all over again. How can we put a stop to this company?

On June 27, 2007 my checking account was debited for $54.95 for a credit card or something of that nature while I was applying for a payday loan cash advance. I do not have money as it is that is why I was applying for a cash loan.

I was just checking my bank balance and I saw unauthorized charge for $54.95. My bank informed it was electronic check #0 from Ever Private Card. I did not authorize them to take my money out of the account. Something needs to be done about this company taking money out of people's account without their permission.

I, too, am in the same situation with Ever Private Card. This company took out $29.95 for the Month of May and June 2007, totally $59.90. I never authorize this transaction. When I first notice it was taken out of my bank account, I contacted the number, but I got the voicemail and it referred to me to contact the website so I did. I filled out the form and waited and waited. I did not get no responds from them. The next month, which is June, Ever Private Card withdrew from my bank account in the amount of $29.95. Again, I called the 800's number and got the same message to visit the website for a refund. Again, I filled out the form and waited. Still I did not get no responds so I filled out the form again and waited. I waited and waited and I got no responds from them. Again, this month, July, I called the 800's number and it referred me back to the website and again, I filled out the form and waited. This the 800's number left a different number to contact them for further information. I called the number and it was busy so I tried for a couple of days. Guess what, the line was no longer busy. I got through and found out that it was a technical support and they don't offer any assistance to my dilemma and once again, I referred back to the website. I filled out the form and waited. After a few days, someone from Ever Private Card responded back to me. I told them I want my money back, but the email explain the virtual card. I blunting told Ever Private Card that I never authorize them to take money from my account and I would like my money refunded back to me. A day later, I got an email from them about what the company is about and I emailed them back stating I don't want to hear anymore of Ever Private Card and I just want my money refunded back to me. I still have not heard anything from them, yet. Ever Private Card is a FRAUD and they should be stop immediately!

I posted this previously... this is an update.

I logged on to their site, filled out their "ticket" and proceeded to have a lengthy conversation with "someone" who kept trying to explain to me how I "authorized" them to withdraw funds from my account.

They tell me that on a site that I used to apply for a payday loan, they had an advertisement that "I marked YES" to in order to request their secret card. Obviously, it was hidden well as an advertisement because I did not mark anything to "buy" a secret credit card from them that requires me to put money onto in order to use it.

Needless to say, they were all about "justifying" why they were allowed to withdraw funds from our checking account. I told them numerous times I did not order and did not want their service. Finally, they gave me another "customer service" link that will process refunds. I did that and am now waiting to get my refund.

But, don't expect to get any refund on OD charges applied by the bank if their withdrawal caused an overdraft. They say they are not responsible for them.

My bank has had us change checking accounts which has caused us all kinds of other work to change all our billings, payments, etc. We now have a new checking account where they can't get to us again.

Hopefully we will see our refund at least for the $54.95.

For refund,
Please fill the form at http://www.secretcashcardservice.com/cgi-bin/refund.cgi.

I checked my bank account this morning and these people did the same thing to us. I am calling my bank to try to get my money back and i sent this company an email demanding my money back. Be careful of any emails you receive from this company. They may have viruses.

Its is a scam artist company called everpirvate that debited my checking account for 49.95 that i did not authorize them to do. I have never heard of this horrible company at all. I am now in the process of trying to get my money back . I am not rich i can not afford to have this horrible so called company take money that is not theirs out of my account. I am going to do everything i can to make sure my money comes back to me. This is a disgrace that a horrible company like everprivate.com is still in business. I will take legal action against this so called company. If i do not get my money back asap!

Was deducted 7/4/07 and I never heard of this company. I managed to get a phone number WITH A LIVE VOICE: [protected] but beware, it goes to Quebec, Canada. I requested the refund and sure enough it came OVERNIGHT on Friday, 7/6. That is the good news.

THE BAD NEWS: My Bank (B of A) wouldn't take it for deposit as they are on a "do not accept" list.
Two check cashing companies here in Tampa would not cash it: they are on a "do not cash" list!

I have a worthless piece of paper from "New Dominion Bank" and their OWN CSR told me (at the 514 #) that he never heard of that bank and that they usually don't use that bank for refunds. So, the scam goes on and I will be in touch again today with the CSR at the Quebec phone number.

Will keep you posted. They have REALLY messed with the wrong person this time; former practicing attorney who knows every Judge in Tampa, State and Federal. Since the are based in Canada I am filing a Federal District Court Case and a Federal judge here in Tampa has already agreed to have it assigned to him (I cannot name the Judge. it is against the law until the suit is filed and then it's a public record).

FOLLOW THIS THREAD. I will be filing tomorrow, Tuesday, 7/10/07.

Imagine my surprise when I contacted my bank and learned that my account was overdrawn due to an unauthorized deduction of $54.95 by everprivate card.

The frightening thing is that I provided my bank information to what I thought to be a reputable, legitimate business.

I need my money back and am left to deal with a pre-recorded message directing me to a website to submit a refund request.

Clearly, this is a scam that happens a lot.

I too had given my information pertaining to a payday loan/cash advance site on 06/27/07, and expected to receive money not have it deducted. I am furious with this company and saw a complaint where someone said to not even waste time with submitting a complaint online and was suggested to contact the following name and number of Mr. jerry Cline at [protected]. He stated that he spoke with Mr cline and was assured a refund by check being sent over night to him. However it did not have any follow up on weather he actually got the money. So I called and the message that I heard from Mr. Cline stated to not contact him that he can not and does not deal with this matter to submit a complaint online. well I left a message demanding my money back and that I was to expect a phone call back from him immediately regarding this matter. This is our money they took and we have every right to be angry and get back what was wrongfully taken from us. I will continue to call and hound Mr. Cline until I get my money refunded and I encourage anyone else to do the same. Screw what he said about not being able to do anything. If he can fix it for one person than he can certainly fix it for me and everyone else too. I will report back with any results as honestly as I can. If he gives me no hazel I will let it be know that it was handled quickly and respectfully. However if I do not get the response I am giving the benefit of the doubt to them for, then trust me you and everyone else will know until I get back what is rightfully mine. I will not shut up or be ignored.
