Great Fun
Reviews and Complaints

I noticed a chage of $159.99 on my last statement for my Chase Visa. I called the number on the statement for the vendor and asked what it was for. They told me that it was my annual fee for emergency car service. I said I had never ordered it. They insisted that I had signed up in 2007 by endorsing a check for $9.00. I said I would not have done that and insisted that they remove the charge. They offered me $80 in coupons for my utility bills. I said no, I just want a credit for the full amount they charged my Visa. They said they would credit me for $121, which was "prorated". I complained to CHASE and they said I could not file a dispute because this was one of their "third party vendors"! I asked Chase to advise me of any other charges from this vendor. I was told there was the same charge made in Dec. 2008.

A few days later, after I received the $121 credit, I called TLG and insisted on a full credit. They explained that it had been "prorated" - I insisted that I wanted a full refund because I never signed up for their service - I asked for a copy of the check I had supposedly endorsed. The sweet-voiced woman said "Yes, of course, we'll send that out to you at this address...let me transfer you to a supervisor." I then spoke with a man who asked me what I wanted, and I told him I wanted a full refund of the $159.99 not only for this year but for last year, because I never signed up for this. He said okay! You will receive a full refund for both years withing the next 2 weeks. So I will check back and make sure that happens.

I think the bottom line is that if they think you will make trouble for them, by going to the BBB or taking them to Small Claims Court (which was my plan) - they will give your money back just to silence you. After all, there are millions of other suckers out there that they are ripping off. They really should be stopped, but at least it's good to know you can get your money back if you are obnoxious enough!

I didn't authorize anyone to take money out of my account what the heck is going on here and how can they do this? I want it stopped. I notify my bank to stop payment today 2/12/2010 Take action . Rebecca Thurston

For the past several months TLG shopper has been making unauthorized transactions out of my bank account( 2 a month at $12.99 each). I have tried several times to contact them to have this situation resolved to no avail. The transactions still continue in fact 2 new ones as of yesterday. I am at a lost and need advice what can I do? PLEASE HELP!

I have had a charge for the 139.00 on my debit card that was not authorized then when I called and complained they refunded only 125.37 and the very next day same company but by the name TLG*ShoppersAdv 4803 charged my debit card the whole amount of 139.99. After a complaint and threat to call the Bank they said they would only refund 125.37 on the first charge because I had it for a day on my card which was just an excuse. Now they have the next business day without authorization charged my debit card again for the full amount. I am filing a complaint as well with the BBB and posting a bunch of website hits on the company if I do not get my money the full amount refunded back to me including the 14.62 that I did not get the first time back. I am calling a lawyer and filing a suite against this company for wrongful unauthorized charges on my account. Sincerely

This isn't really a complaint . I was promised a forty or fifty dollar Walmart card when I started Great Fun.Well, I lost the information I was supposed to send in to get it. Could you please resend it to me? I've been a member long enough to get it. My e-mail address is [protected]@gmail.com. My name is Thomas Abbott. I live at 6588 Lake rd.apt. 6 Windsor, Wi. 53598. Please send it as soon as possible. Thank You, Most sincerely, Thomas Abbott

TGL*GREATFN is charging my debit card $11.99 evey month I dont know were I got this charge from but I just want it to stop! and I dont know how to go about it.

I was checking my credit statement out & notice that I had two charges for $11.99 from tlg*greatfn. I never heard of them and never sign up anything form that company. so i called my credit card company to explained what happen- they gave me the phone number to call them and get this straight out. So I got credit for two months at first. Then I went back for a yr. on my statements- I found out they have been charging me for over a yr- 11.99 a month. Now I have to write a letter to them to get the other 11 months credit-which come up to $131.89. Boy if that isn't a scam. I'm going to fight to the end to get that credit. I'm going to report them to the Better Buisness Bureau. They have to be stopped.

This morning 1/26/2010 i found a pending charge of 14.99 on my bank activity from my Debit Card. I did not authorize this, the bank told me to contact the merchant i called the number no-one would take my call. I have never been on this site Great Fun until i had to look into this problem. I have discovered its a scam and people all over not just United States are having a problem with these debit cards deduction. I have been told to close out my bank account and get a new one so i'm not a victim again to whatever information these people have accessed on me.

I have received multiple illegal charges to my credit card in the amount of $14.99 each month being paid to "TLG Great Fun " for the past several months that have not been authorized. This has happened before and the only way that I could stop it was to cancel my credit card. Is that what I am going to be forced to do again. If this is the case then I am definitely becoming wary of credit cards. what

I recently realized that at least seve unauthorized auto payments have been sent from my account to an unknown vendor. According to my online accoutn history, payments of 12.99 were made to Greatfun On 1/15, 12/11, 11/09, 9/11, 8/14, 6/12 and 5/15 (greatfunmay). Accoridng to posts on http://www.complaintsboard.com/, this is happening ot others. I can find no difinitive contact information about this organization and ask you to please research and rectify this freaud that may be being perpetrated agains other of your customers. I look forward to hearing from you. thank you in advance,

I really have no idea what "the category of my complaint" is since I neither solicited nor received any services. Last year, we ordered shoes from shoebuy.com. We never signed up for TLG Great Fun. However, they started charging our debit card $11.99 each month unbeknown to us. After 13 months and $155.87 total charges, we finally wised up and contacted our bank. This company is a scam. We have no idea what service they often if any. They are a subsidiary of the Affinion Group headquartered in Norwalk, CT. Call the corporate office at [protected] or [protected] if you have been ripped off by this company. Demand repayment. Stop the abuse!

I AM BEING BILLED EVERY MONTH SINCE MAR 09 FOR $12.99FROM AN UNKNOW COMPANY TLG*GREATFN1500480 [protected] CT
I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THESE. 27TH OR 28TH OF EACH MONTH. I HAVE READ ABOUTH THIS FRAUD AND DIDNOT REALIZE THE CHARGES WERE MADE.

on September 2, 2008 supposedly I signed up for this through Smart Bsrgains - I never used it and am being charged by them $14+ a month

I repeatedly ask my credit card company to help - to no avail, have writted to th eocmpany to tell them to cancel what I do not recognize as a membershop and to refund all of the money, to no avail and have just sent them another letter.

Money stolen by them ...over $200.

Please help

Check your credit card statements! Esp if you've ordered flowers through 1-800Flowers.com. TLG is an affiliate of 1-800Flowers.com and when you order flowers if you choose to receive a rebate on your order you will inadvertently be signed up for a bogus membership w/TLG Live Well. The membership is worthless, provides no service whatsoever and no communication to it's members. It will however charge your credit monthly fees. I have been charged twice a month by them since January: 1 charge of $12.99 and one of $38.99 each month. I should have been more diligent, no doubt but that doesn't excuse this theft. I have contacted both TLG Live Well and 1-800Flowers.com and neither is willing to help so I've initiated disputes for the charges. If anyone knows of a current class action suit against either company please provide info. In the meantime, buy your flowers elsewhere!

I canceled this months ago and checked my account and realized that they are taking money out of my checking account - unauthorized. How do I stop this. I am unemployed and need all money available to me...what do I do? Tell anyone who will listen this is a scam. I canceled as soon as I joined pretty much and now they are taking money out... Now I have to go through the hassle of fighting with the bank and trying to get in touch with these thieves... HOW ARE THEY DOING THIS AND WHY ARE THEY ALLOWED TO BE OPEN!

I have been getting charges on my debit card for many months now from tlg shopper and tlg greatfun. I have never heard of these companies before and when I saw that they were taking out $12.99 every month for each company I called to cancel. They are still charging me. HELP I am a mother of 3 girls, 1 being 3 months old. I can't afford to be giving them $25.98 every month for something I never authorized. That is a package of diapers and wipes. Any luck out there cancelling with these companies.
