Great Fun
Reviews and Complaints

It appears that i'm not the first, nor will I be the last, that tlg great fun rips off! I entered a nme magazine exchange sweepstakes and was enrolled into several programs (great fun being one,) automatically. a few days later, financial tragedies stuck and I wasn't able to complete the payment obligations.

Nme, and the other companies, did remove me from their billings. however, I just opened my jan. credit card statement, and found a $14.99 debit for tlgshopper. I had no idea what this was until I did a little research online, and found that it is tlg great fun!

I cancelled great fun, online, the same day that I cancelled all the rest - or so I thought! this company is a total rip-off, and I am pissed!

I don't have any idea who Great Fun is. They took $12.99 out my my account for something that I supposedly belonged to. I didn't realize this until my account was over-drawn. My bank cancelled my debit card and sent me a new one with a different number. I received a bill for the dues they couldn't get out of my account. It cost me $90.00 for overdraft costs.
Their address is Processing Center, PO Box 40647, Nashville TN [protected]. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

OMG The complaints are innumerable against these scammers and crooks and apparently for YEARS this has been going on as I find AFTER I myself was scammed into "trying out" an "offer via Wyndham Rewards. Recently this past November (2010) during a hotel stay at Super 8 using my Wyndham Rewards card, I called customer service of an issue regarding another matter when after that resolve was asked if I would be interested in a "trial offer" from their affiliates After brief consideration, I opted for the $1.00 30-day trial NOT a "membership" as they deceptively put me on during the call. Was told that this "trial" wouldn't start UNTIL I got the materials in the mail within 3 weeks but I caught them in a LIE as I looked at the "policy" of the "Welcome To Great Fun" paper with a member card attached ! where I only had 2 WEEKS to CANCEL if need be. If I HAD waited up to the 30 days AFTER I received this so-called discount package, that would've put me well over the cancellation time for them to only charge me and I wouldn't have no case BUT NO...the thing was that the so-called "trial" STARTED while I was on the phone with Wyndham which they made a "membership" WITHOUT MY PERMISSION ! After some pondering, I called to CANCEL everything a couple of days later and even still was being sold the "the program" and was treated as if I wasn't in my right mind to want to cancel so early. I firmly requested cancellation along with a conf.# and name all under " Great Fun" mind you. A month later after that, I check my charge account to find that a "TLG Shopper" with phone # charged me $16.99 that the Great Fun rep. told me over the phone IF I DIDN'T CANCEL but I DID and I'm like, "who the hell is TLG SHOPPER what the hell is this charge?!?" But as a careless oversight on my part, I doubled back into my charge account and surely there was "TLG Shopper" NEXT TO "Great Fun" who debited $1.00 ALSO who they gave my info to WITHOUT MY PERMISSION ! Of course, I DEMANDED a REFUND of which I'm awaiting right now...the nerve...this is TOTALLY OUTRAGEOUS...there should be a class action suit against this "corporation" and others like them !
I consider myself to be pretty good at handling my affairs being a conscientious consumer...but now, I'm EXTRA vigilante to recheck EVERYTHING...thanks for reading...BEWARE and AWARE !

Tlg*great fun /tlg*shoppers advantage
I don't recall how I got hooked up with this company,
But I want to discontinue my membership and be
Reimbursed for any charges I may be entitled to.

For the last 5 months great fun has stolen monthly payments from my minor son's child support account. also, a company by the name of auto vantage, located in connecticut has been doing the same exact thing, for the same amount of time. I emailed both companies with my discovery and to my disbelief, I recieved 2 exact responses stating that I would hear from them in 24 hrs.
In iowa, child support comes in the form of a debit/credit card through usbank so, I guess it could be looked at as a credit card but, I do not know how the information was stolen.
I do plan on calling both companies as soon as they open this morning. I also have to correspond with credit report.com-calif. as they too have been stealing monthly payments from the child support account.
In closing, I would like to ask... with all the complaints I have read about these companies, why have the masses not rallied to prosecute?
Any suggestions on how I may further handle this matter and get my son's money back to him.

Please be aware Great Fun is a Fraud and will continue to steal from your account once they have your information.

This company called GREAT FUN got my name and credit card information from a magazine purchase I made online. (This is what I was told from there customer service center) I have no idea what they do or offer other than I was told they are suppose to offer discounts. They began charging my credit card $11.99 per month when I called them, they said no problem will stop and apolgized, however the withdrawals from my account did not stop, I call them again and ask them to stop, then I became ill and was unable to follow my credit card bill until over a year later when my health resumed, I discovered they had not stopped drawing from my account, then, I called my bank and closed the account, what a hassel, the bank was able to get back for me 5 of the withdrawals they had made. I went through there Great Fun customer service center by letter at PO Box 6100 Westerville, Ohio 43086, at there request, but was never reimbured for the $143.88 they have stolen from my account.

When we reserved a moving van from the self-move company, our name was sold by or stolen from them. TLG shopper called back and thinking it was the company we were getting the van from we said yes, we would like the gas saving coupons. When we picked up the van a week later we found out they had not called back. The company told us that some times others get hold of information and to be careful. We found TLG's phone # and called immediately to cancel the "plan". They did not cancel and continued to charge us. It took a few months to find the charges cleverly hidden in the bank statement. I called again and it took much talking to get them to once again cancel it, as they hire people that are not very good at the english language.

unauthorized billing to my chase credit card account since Dec 2009. Went back on all my statements looking for another charges and noticed a $14.99 monthly billing that I did not authorize. Would llike my credit card account credited with the years amount. Aslo noticed unauthorized billing for TLG GreatFn for $12.99/month and TLG Auto for $15.99/month since Dec. 2009 also. I have gone on their web site and noticed many complaints for similar unauthorized billing. Hope you can help. I will call them on the next working day to cancel this account.

I have been noticing charges for about $15.00/month for about a year now being taking out automatically from our account.I have been disabled for 2 years and my husband out of work, I know we don't have any extracurricular accounts. We can't even pay our power bills. So I have been paying more attention to our accounts and we have also received "overdue bills" from these people. I kept throwing those bills away because it seemed bogus since we never heard of this company. After looking closer I know realize that those bogus bills and this money taken out of our account are of the same company. Now I am worried that those bogus overdue bills are perhaps in collection, which would make me more furious since they are taking money out of my account! My husband will definitely be putting stop payment on any further attempts to take money out of our account as well as check into our already poor credit report. What a pain! Who are these people? How did they get our account access?

unaotherized ach pmts to my bank account and possibility of selling of personal and private information.

I tried their package and now wish to stop their service, but I cannot find where they are / phone number to cancel their monthly charge.

I was charged $38.99 on 11/27/09, 2/25/2010, 5/27/2010 and on 8/26/2010 from TLG Great Fun. I never authorized these charges. When I called the company up they told me I authorized membership on 10/18/2009 when I purchased airline tickets from Air Trans. I told them I don't even know who you are and what your selling but you are illegally charging to my charge card. I told them to cancel this membership and return $155.96 they you charged to my account and I also want to hear the tape recording of my authorization. They said they would return the charges, gave me a confirmation # and said it would take 5 to 7 business days. I called up my credit card company and canceled my card. TLG Great Fun only returned $18.42. I called them back on 10/22/2010 and argued about the difference of $137.54 they still owe me. The supervisor told me they would return the difference of $137.54 within 5-7 business days. This company is a real scammer. They are affiliated with quite a few companies; Air Trans, Orbitz, Priceline and many more. I reported them to Susan Wornick. Hopefully this company will be broadcasted on "Buyer Beware".

When my father became seriously ill 2 months ago, we took over his bill paying, which up to that time had been handled by a friend of his since we live out-of-state. My 84-year-old father was legally blind, so he was unable to read anything on these bills. As we were going over his statement from Chase, we noticed a charge of $12.99 from an outfit called TLG*EVRYDAY. Looking back over previous statements, we saw a similar charge on every statement for each billing throughout the year. We called, to find out what this service was, and how he had come to be subscribed to it. When they described their "services" we knew it wasn't something my father would have been interested in, so we asked how it was that he had been signed up for it. After some pressing, they admitted that it was some trial offer through Habaand, that became a permanent charge if he didn't cancel after one month.
Of course, since he could not read his statements, he would have had no way of knowing this. I told them that this was a clearly unethical procedure, and that I expected them to correct it immediately, refunding to his estate, since he had passed away and the charge account had been cancelled, the entire amount charged over the previous year.
They said that they could immediately release 1-2 statements worth of charges. I insisted that they refund the entire amount, and they gave me a fax number to send the request to.
As of this date, we have received no refund check.

I just paid off my credit card two weeks ago, I have not used this card in almost a year when I went to check on the account there was a $149.99 charge on my card from TLC*Great Fun. I never heard of this company, made any charges to them or athorized any charge. All that showed on my statement was; TLC*Great Fun [protected] CT. When I reported this to my credit card company as fraud I was told the charge was made in Connecticut. Never even meet anyone from this state let alone been there. Whatever this company is they are nothing but theives! I see nothing but complaints from tons of people about similar situations to mine. How is it these people can continue to steel from consumers and get away with it?

You have charged my Chase credit card without approval.

TLG shopper has been chargeing my account for 15.99. They have been doing this from March till now. Does anyone even know what this TLG even is? Anyone who has them taking money out of there account by debit card the only way to stop it is by getting a new debit card. Call your bank and get a newcard with a new number. Let your bank know whats going on so they can help. I just went to my bank and they told me that any charge trying to come through with my old card number would not be taken.

Charged $38.99 for "Membership Fees" after a 30 day "free trial". Never ordered. Don't even know who they are/were. They got my info from a 1-800-Flowers order. After 20 minutes and several changes of phone numbers and "supervisors", my money was scheduled to be credited.

My credit card has been charged for the last two months for $14.99
by TLG ID SECURITY, 888.344.9406.
After researching we believe that Trilegiant Corp. has used 'Great Fun" as a method of attaining our creditcard Number, and has used it without our permission.
