Great Fun review: charged by credit card for 119. 99 769

Same charge with me. The company claims that I cashed a $5 check that they sent to an address that I havent lived at in over 6 months and that waranted them to start me in some discount program...I said I've never even heard of this company and never cashed a random $5 check! I'm cancelling this card. I have to wait 2 billing cycles for them to reimburse though!

Same thing here. Just saw these guys charged my card $11.99 for last 4 months. My charge came from booking a flight on AirTran. I don't recall agreeing to anything but purchasing a ticket! Shame on AirTran! Shame on me for not noticing this charge sooner. I will NEVER use AirTran again. They lost a customer over this unscrupulous practice.

I too was victimized by these scammers! 11.99 for 4 months. I Called and found out they are located in Westerville Ohio near Columbus the woman I spoke to would not give me a street address just a PO box. i plan to do some local research because i want to visit them with a can of pepper spray. I have canceled my credit card and will only be refunded for 2 months

Visit this link, I found an attorney gathering information to file a class action lawsuite against Trilegiant Corporation.

If enough of us get involved we can put these crooks out of business.

they got me when i bought a airline ticket thru orbit's . called they stopped.

I just realized that I have been charged $11.99 for this TLG/GREAT FUN for no reason, the banker told me If I got fly tickets on line or something similar, and she was right but it was 2 YEARS AGO! I cant believe how these companies work, stealing money like a thieft. I called to my bank -wells fargo- and they told me that the transaction is still pending so I have to wait like 3 or 4 days so until I can get a credit on that complaint but I hate this way of work of this compay -tlg-, And things get a little harder for me because I don't live in the US, I bought those tickets when I went to the US for my vacations in Colorado, and 2 years later I received this awful surprise. I have to wait that's all I can do so far. It sucks

They also took $35.99 out of my bank account... pretty p*ssed off. there is no way of me doin this. I am very careful with my card as well. I wanna know who to call and i want my money back. If any of you have a way of getting the # i would like to have it please.. thanks and hope no one else gets ripped off!

i was charged 12.99 on my vista card and i want to know what the hell for? they cant take things off peoples cards .

i have forgotten to give you all information about my charged my number charged was 27078983a800will you please get back to me

I have another unknown charge for Membership services is what it says for 19.95. I called and they said to go to this site. I need them to reimburse my account now and quit charging me for anything else.

We too have been victims of this SCAM! In Jan 2006, out teenage daughter wanted to sign up for Columibia Records and Tapes online. My wife allowed her to do so, but after I found out I had them cancel it. I pay ALL the bills and never questioned any charges, I just thought my wife had bought things for herself. I have several times paid off the credit card balance, Visa Card, issued through Bank of America, only to place new charges on the card. This last time May, 2008 I paid the card off again and asked my wife what TLG GREATFN was and why it was on an "OLD" credit card number billed to our "NEW" credit card. She did'nt know. In calling Bank of America I found out very little, but after making several calls, someone mentioned that it was probably due to something we had signed up for at one time. What? They suggested I call TLG GREATFN. I got a long winded spiel from them about services they provide and how this started. My wife swears she never agreed to anything with TLG GREATFN, I know I did'nt, and my daughter did'nt. We've been paying this $10.99 fee for 2 years 5 months! The banks don't make it easy, they are'nt too interested in helping (why would they, they earn money this way). TLG GREATFN plays dumb and puts the blame onto "something you signed up for". I've told TLG GREATFN to cancel and recieved a cancellation number. We'll see. Next we're going to Bank of America/Visa Card with a fraud complaint.

This frigging company took $ 36.00 out of my checking account, and I never got anything in return.

I just checked my statement today and i saw that 11.99 was taken out of my checking account. I called my bank and they gave me the name tlg great fun. i looked it up on the internet and it brought me to all these complaints that i am seeing now. we need to file a law suit against them they took our information without us knowing it and thats not right.

TLG Great Fun-----Report them once you have the charges removed by going to FTC.com and filing a complaint. These guys are so rude and someone I.E. the government needs to stop their practice of billing consumers when a discount is accepted when making an online purchase. What they don't fully disclose is your membership into their club and the monthly billing that will follow.

Phone number reflected on this complaint is NOT the phone number of TLG Great Fun.

Please do not call.

TLG Great Fun has charged me 3x for $11.99 each. I am absolutely livid. I have no idea who this company is or how they even got a hold of my account info. I am extremely irritated..wouldn't it be great to file a class action lawsuit against them for FRAUD!?!?

11.99 for the month of April.

I will be going to my bank tomorrow.

I dont even know how these people got my debit card number. Outrageous.

I have filed a complaint with the Connecticut Attorney General, Great Fun obtained my credit card information when I purchased an item on line. I was contacted by them telling me I had joined and I responded with no way and I was not interested and not to charge my card and send anything to me. They did not send the information but now I noticed they did charge my Credit Card five days ago.

The other individuals who have complaints should file a complaint with the Connecticut Attorney General.

I got the same problem. Great fun charged me for 3 months. I called them today and cancel my "membership." (Even though I don't know why I'm part of their member~) I believe it's through the Drugstore website. So please be careful not to clip on the "cash back".
Now, I asked the customer service that I want the money back. The person told me an address that we can write a mail to request the money back. Could somebody please tell me how to write a letter to request the money back?
They seems not want to deal with this.

My husband's Bank of America credit card was charged 119.99 last month. He never has used his credit card on line. He doesn't know how to get on the internet. When I called MB Greatfun they told me that we had authorized Bank of America to charge us for a coupon book with "great" discounts. I have contacted Bank of America to ask them to remove the charge we did not make. Of course my husband has already paid the bill in full, and the credit card company replied to my letter with a form letter saying they had received my letter, were investigating it, and would reply within 30 days. After reading the postings here, I have little hope of relief.

I purchased a rental car thru Priceline..Got a great rate but they also sold my credit card number
to Great Fun..The next month I was billed $11.99..some fun. I called my credit card bank and they transfed me to Great Fun..Great Fun cancelled the charge. Be sure to get the name of the person and callelation number..
good luck

I was reviewing my account today and saw a charge for $11.99 that I couldn't for the life of me remember? I decided to use the key words in a Google search and see if something came up that would jog my memory or make sense of things for me; I Googeld "TLG" and "Great Fun." When this came up and read the comments and realized the same thing happened to me. I used the # someone listed and call them and had my "account" canceled and my money refunded...

Good luck to anyone else just finding this...

WOW! I just got that charge on my bank account this morning, which happens to be on the weekend, and googled it online and found this site! That really burns me up! I'm calling the number first thing Monday morning. How are they getting away with this?

It seems that this company has done this in the past and was slapped with a pay back to consumers by the California Attorney Generals office. It may be time to get the Attorney General involved again. The folowing link is from the Better Business Bureau. It has some good reading on this company and what they are all about.

http://ct.bbb.org/WWWRoot/Report.aspx?site=29&bbb=0111&firm=41001179

This company is a Delaware Incorporated business, of which everyone should fill out a complaint form and fax it to the Delaware Attorney General's office.
The following link is the form that should be filled out and faxed:

Good luck and if everyone complains I am more than sure that the Delaware Attorney General will be of great help.

I purchased some movie tickets and a pop up from fundango came up stating that I could get 15% off my purchase by answering some questions and joining it did not say anything about my credit card information or anything like that I did not get 15% off that purchase and thought nothing about it when I seen some emails from fundango but still no coupons. In April a TLG Great Fun started billing my account $11.99. I thought I didnt know where it was from and tried to find out but there was no number on the transaction and just became to busy and forgot about it but when it happened again in May I became very upset looked online and thanks to the warnings about TLG Great Fun I was able to find a number and call them right away. I spoke to a lady who said that I authorized it by clicking on the 15% off. I told her I did not authorize because I did not give my credit card info and she said that by paying for my movie tickets they already had my information & billed my account that way I demanded a credit and told her it was a scam and that I believed I was ripped off. She proceeded to speak about the 15% off I told her I never received a 15% off and didnt care about it I wanted my money back she proceeded to say that I am not authorized to get a rebate but would authorize it as a one time courtesy I told her it better be authorized and it isnt a courtesy its them giving me back my money that they scammed from me... She then said it would take 10-15 days for me to get my money back. Told her if I didn't get my money back I would be calling back after 10-15 days... I already dont have enough money I dont need these trashy companies taking my money that I work so hard for. Please be aware of the SCAM TLG GREAT FUN!

I was reviewing my account today and saw a charge for $39.99 that I never spent. I am sure about this. (Why many of them $11.99 for me $39.99?). I called my bank some minutes before and I said them there is a international scam. I think they will refund and I hope they care these swindlers.

Great Fun charged my checking account twice two months in a row, this month being the second. I made an airline ticket purchase in February through Continental, and I assume that's how I got on their membership. It's completely stupid though, since I had nothing to do with them, never heard of them before, and because of these deductions, my bank has to cover for me when I don't have enough in my account. Where do you find the number to call and how do you cancel your membership? This is a rediculous, unlawful scam, and I would jump in with the rest of you in a class action lawsuit.

Looks like my elderly mother was scammed by "TLG/GreatFun" (Trilegiant)" for $119.99 just a few days ago. When I contacted them at [protected] to clear up the matter, "Mary" (speaking very poor english) informed me that my father had approved the service last year. She had his name, former address, etc... However, I found that quite odd considering he's been deceased for over 7 years! Thanks to this site I contacted www.girardgibbs.com and left a messge with A.J. De Bartolomeo at [protected]. I've cancelled Mom's card and now we'll just have to see what happens. Considering the number of entries in this forum alone (while imagining the numbers of people who didn't bother to enter something or find this page), I find this is event fairly frightening.

yes, i was also scammed by this company. after investigating, i found that they ot the info from my book company, and also from my dvd membership with BMG. i call the company and they told me that they will return my funds.

I assume that this post is like a year ago. I just received the same change from Great Fun and saw that the company is still operating. How can we do to stop this damn company. If they got $10 from 1000 people every month, they are making a lot of money illegally ...

TLG*COMPHME has my cc # as well...They are charging me $12.99 a month. I need to figure out why. I never asked for their services. It's total BS.

I first discovered this charge over a year ago. I called them then and they said that they would stop the charge. I pay my bills electronically so I thought that it was taken care of. I know notice that the charge is still occurring.

I was informed by council that Trilegiant has recently settled a 20+ million dollar class action suit for such fraudulent charging activities. That just an example of the scale of their operation. Unfortunately, the final date for the suit was March 2008. Judging by the number of entries since March alone, a second suit may be warranted. I recommend contacting Garrard Gibbs. Good luck...

Over the past several months I have been getting charges of $11.99 on my credit card by a company called Great Fun. Never heard of this company never received anything from them. Turns out when I booked a trip with Priceline, there was a fine print scheme that had this company Great Fun receive my credit card info and bill me every month for $11.99. Supposedly I was to get coupons or something. Never did. Paid over $100 to this company though. Looking around online it seems that there are many other people having this problem and talking to one of their representatives it didn't seem like this was out of the ordinary.

TGL Great Fun billed me for $59.99 and I haven't signed up for any thing. I called them (India) and they said they will refund my money. Not good enough, as soon as I get it back I am going to cancel my Chase credit card. They know about htis company and they are letting them bill my card so I consider them part of the problem I have a lot of other credit cards. No prioblem!

I noticed I kept getting a charge for 11.99 each month from this company. I nor my husband ever signed up for this. We don't do that. I have had to close down my acct with my credit card but these people need to be stopped. I was informed that they have done this to others.

Got American express to do an internal block on Great Fun and Family Fun. I have also sent orbitz a very purposeful nasty gram, letting them know that i have contacted the better business beaurau about it.

HSBC credit card company sends you small checks of 8.00 to 9.00, and if you cash them thinking this is interest comeing back to you for all your purchases, this is incorrect. If you cash them that signs you up to what ever company that it says in the fine print. nothing is for free.

TLG-GreatFun charged $10.99 to my credit card without my notice as a membership, which I never subscribed. This is totally ripoff my money by charging to my card. I called them regarding this, they are saying I subscribed to their membership after buying a air ticket from priceline.com. I never subscribed to their membership after buying ticket from priceline.com, which is totally baseless, because I am very well aware of these online predators and well educated in computer programming and online technologies. What they are saying is baseless, after fighting through phone they canceled the so-called membership. Still worrying that they will charge again. I think this is fault with priceline.com privacy policies by selling their customer card information to third parties like TLG-GreatFun without customers consent. I need to change my card with my card company to protect from this scam.
