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

I went to Jeff Wyler Dealership in Springfield, OH and for test driving a car I received a voucher from freegas central.com in which I got on their website and paid the $5, they e-mailed me the vouchers for each month. I sent in several months worth of gas receipts totaling $100 and never received the monthly $25 gas card. I e-mailed them and they sent a reply saying they were "investigating" and that I should continue to look for the gas cards. These people are taking honest, hard-working people's money and stealing it. They should be prosecuted!

I too have not received any of my gas cards. Since Oct 2008. I have called to complain, but each time it is EXTREMELY difficult to get a hold of someone, and then they always have an explanation or should I say excuse. They assure me that they should be arriving soon, but I still have not gotten ANY of the gas cards. I am getting very annoyed by this, because I am passing up gas stations where the price is lower, so that I can stay with the station I chose ( which at the time was the most convenient and the cheapest) It it still the most convenient but no longer the cheapest. I wouldn't mind that if I was getting what I was promised in return, but I am NOT!

I also sent in my gas card redemption receipts from August 2008 to February 2009, but I have not receive any gift card. I did call the company, and they said, my gift card will send-out between 19 Jan to 31 Jan 09. I call the company today and find out if my gift card has been send out, but the phone line seems to be busy all the time. It this company tell the truth that they will sending out gift card once you send in $100 of receipt each month!

Both my husband and myself have sent in coupons from two different free gas coupons companies since october, 2008 and we also have not received any coupons. We have called the telephone number that they give you but it is not valid. so there is no one to complain to. This is a big scam and i pray everyone involed should pay one way or another. Remember what goes around comes around. Where is the goverment when you need them. Oh wait a minute their ripping us off also.

I called them in December of 2008 and was told that they were switching over to a new database and all my rebates would be sent out in Mid-Jan, 09. I tried to call them in Mid Jan, the 800 number was always busy during business hours. I also emailed them and the email was bounced back. I tried to call them again today, and now the 800 number is not valid. Obviously, they disappeared with the $$$.

I have sent in everything as requested and received confirmations. I have called and was told this would be handled by first week in Jan - why that long makes no sense. Still have not received anything and now the phone must be disconnected as cannot call them. Something needs to be done about this fraud. I will be reporting to BBB and advising the local dealerships they have been taken for a ride.

I have been invited to attend teh seminar How to make money from Realty dealership with the promise of 250 USD gas giftcards.
I attended the seminar in Santacruz hotel and lesitened their seminar for 6 hours with the hope of getting 250 USD gift card.
At the end of the seminar, i got Gas redemption voucher for 250 USD and was told to encash from online website freegascentral.com.
On online registration i realised that i have to send 100 USD gas receipts of any gas company of our choice, every month, for 10 months and they will send 25 USD gift card. I have sent sofar 5 nmonths and i have not yet received even a single giftcard. Sending reminder mails to them but no response. Customer service number what they ahve provided in initial response is also not working it seems. It is very riduculous to cheat people like this.

My name is Jerry Minneci, I am one of those people that is going throgh the same thing. Where is my gas cards from July?.Every time I call the number it's not in service.Than when I use to get someone they tell me that the receipts were copy, or the cards were already mail out.Looks like we're going to have to get everyone together and file a Class Act Law Suit against you. Anyone reading this that agrees with me you can contact me at inmyhart2002@yahoo.com or onegr8guy512@yahoo.com. I'm tired of these companies taking advantage of people and gettting away with it! Let's do something about then now!

TIME FOR CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT:

I can add no other "unique" experience than those I have read because my husband and I have had our lives controlled by this program as well. However, since they have conducted this fraud using the US Mail, each of our banks, the internet and in our case, the telephone, we have obvious criminal actions that can include the postal service, secret service and attorney general of Florida. Also, I don't know about you, but because this program called for us to stay "loyal" to a specific gas station, we have loss money, because there were plenty of times when the gas station we chose for the program did not have or keep the best price in gas, however, since we were building "loyalty" we continued to gas there instead of the cheaper station across the street... I have spoken with a representative at "free gas", and just this pass Jan 29th & (to my surprise they answered the phone), and she assured me that they were caught up with their (incredible software problems) and that she knew that a large batch of cards were being mailed on Jan 31. Of course, that was almost 1 month ago, so once again...We have all been "gassed!". Yes, it is time for "the Class to Act"!

I too have sent in several receipts for gas and have not received any free gas cards. I too got some baloney about then having technical difficulty. So what is up what can be done? I paid my $5 also and am currently filing a complaint with the BBB. I suggest everyone else does the same!

My husband & I have sent in all of our receipts for 3 months (Oct, Nov & Dec), received the confirmations that they were received. There was never anything sent to us. I'm not sending any more in. I just want what was promised to us when we received our "FREE GAS INVITATION". What a SCAM. I just tried to email them with my complaint and I got an error message.

We sent the receipts too for Sept 08 to Dec 08 with no cards returned to us as of this date. They tookr $5 and never sent anything else. I agree that strong action should be taken up against these crooks. I will be contacting the company that set me up for this offer...FORD Motor Company will be hearing from me.

I have been sending in receipts since August 2008, always received a e-mail that my receipts were received. I was going to the same gas station all the time, I would not let my husband get gas anywhere else even thought it might have been cheaper. I too think it is now time to file a class action lawsuit against this company, if we can get enough information on them.

Sent in $5.00 registration fee and $400.00 worth of gas receipts. Supposed to get gift cards to purchase $100.00 worth of gas. Received emails confirming receipts had been sent in but no gift cards sent. Finally got email stating they had "computer crash" and were working to resolve problems. Now emails returned, telephone number disconnected. No way to contact. Just send me back my $5.00 ... doubt that will happen either.

It looks like we all got scammed! I never got any gift cards either, then today I received my receipts back for February and the envelope was marked return to sender, unable to forward. That now sounds official, will never get what we were suppose
to. I can imagine how much they made on everyones 5 dollars!

I followed the directions to the letter, collected my receipts and mailed them. They came back as undeliverable. I then called their 800 number [protected] which is an invalid #. Then I went to their website FreeGasCentral.com and tried their other # [protected] which is disconnected. In the meantime, the credit card I used to pay the $5 fee has been hacked. This company is bad news!

We have sent in our receipts to three different addresses that were on thier website, which is no longer available, and it took 2 months to get the letter returned back to us written on it undeliverable. They sure did take the 5.00 off the credit card but have reinversed for the gas. My mother is furious and agree with everyone that they should be prosecuted for failing to deliver. We are going to the car dealership and make them pay us back on the gas that we were promised to get money back on and we have the receipts and the letters we wrote the "Freegas centeral" people. I know we won't do this again.

After faithfully send my receipts every month totaling $100 dollars to freegascentral.com the never sent me my $225 in gas cards as they said they would, but they were all to quick to take the registration fee from my bank account.
I want what was promised to me as I believe that everyone else who was scammed should get the cards and cash that they were promised.
It was after all a LEGAL contract...

I also am a victim of this scam. I receive the certificate for $1, 000.00 and $100.00 worth of free gas and sent in my $10.00. I GOT nothing and I have been mailing in my receipts since October. I have called, sent e-mails and a regular letter which came back unable to deliver. So I guess they too are out of business and have taken my money. For me it was $10.00. What happened to all the honest people in this world.

I, too, am a victim to this scam. I have not received my gas cards yet. I have been saving since September. In November, when I called them, they encouraged me that they were going to send my gift cards. Now, 04/10/2009, nothing. Its really sad. I'd settle for my $5 dollar processing fee. My husband got this promotion through a very reputable company, so we thought it was on the up and up. Boy were we wrong.

I went to a 6 hour seminar in September 2008 about Property Liens and how to make money. In order to receive the $250.00 Gas Card you had to stay for the entire seminar. I went online as suggested on the card that was given at the seminar and registered online. Yhe $5.00 was taken from my account for processing fee, and I have never received the card. The Wed address was FreeGasCentral.com
