ripoff
Signed up for their people search for a supposed $1.99. When I got the confirmation screen I found out they were billing my credit card $23.88. I tried to delete my account within minutes of signing up and ended up having to call their "customer care" number. Then I was told the amount was for a full year and there was NO REFUNDS. After checking back at the site I still couldn't read the small print at the bottom of the screen. Sent them an email complaint and their response was " Thank you for contacting MyLife.com. Our records indicate that the concerns expressed in your email were already addressed by a Representative with our Customer Care team. " Great job of scamming people out of their money. The site doesn't even do what I need. I wanted a phone numer for a person and the site directed me to another site to sign up for another subscription! DON'T USE THIS SITE!

scam
When this site was Reunion.com, you could actually find people that you had lost contact with. Sixty bucks is pretty steep for most people for a yearly subscription to something you rarely need, but when you could find old friends, it was worth it. Now, you are allowed only one free lookup a month; after that you pay again. Not to mention that you can't find anyone on here, anyway. Not anymore. Maybe it was the privacy suits, maybe it was the change in ownership, but it is not worth a plug nickel and they will NOT refund your money. They even sent an email telling me that someone was looking for me, but wouldn't tell me who unless I signed up again. So stupid me, I signed up again. there wasn't anyone looking for me and shortly thereafter, the site switched over to the new format. Stay away from this one. you can get just as much information from any search engine, and yahoo! is free.

scam networking site
These guys are not a true networking site. They send out phishing emails to get information, hack into address books to make it appear that someone you know is looking for you when they're not and buy up mailing lists including those from the credit card companies and marketing companies. They are not a legitimate networking site. Steer clear of these people. They also try to make a connection to who you are related to violating privacy and protection. Consumers ought to be afraid of companies like this. With online scams and violent people in this world someone may come calling you or knocking at your door that has no business looking for you as a result of a website like www.mylife.com. Mylife.com through a Federal order should be shut down.

scam & privacy violation
I was searching around and came across this website and I noticed they had information on my 15 year old daughter posted. I promptly called them but I know how this information sellings sites work so I *67 before so they wouldnt get my cellphone number.
I spoke to a guy there and explained that they had information on my child and that I wanted it removed right away, the guy was helpful said he would get it done immediately.. And I thought that we were all finished, about 5 hours later after I called them I noticed 2 missed calls from a friend puzzled why she hadnt left a message (she always does) I called her back thinking something was wrong and that was when she said someone HIJACKED my phone, obviously I thought she was kidding until she told me that when she called that she heard my ring back and then when it would normally go to voice mail that it directed it off to mylife.com's phone service.. Well not completly convinced I called it myself and she was right.. I was shocked, I had my husband call my cell and it did the same thing it would do about 30 seconds of my ring back and then off to their answering system where you could here the information of Mylife.com and ask if you were a member and try to inlist you to sign up... I was completely in shock.. MY husband spoke to a representative there and asked how it was that they were interupting my cell phone calls and they insisted that they donot conduct business like that, my husband asked them to stop it and they got rude and hung up on him.. Confused and quite upset he called Verizon and spoke to them there who verified that it was infact going over to the mylife.com answering system he even called and verified it him self, they checked to make sure I hadnt accidently forwarded it off and to even his confusion it didnot show that I had accidently done anything after getting a supervisior and tech support involved they were able to unlink my phone so it was no longer going over to mylife.com's answering system.. But how scary is this that companies can do that and try to be sneaky and direct all of YOUR incoming calls directly to them in order to sell a product.
Let this being a warning to anyone wishing to call this company that trying to block your number doesnt work be smart and use a payphone...
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Over the past year I have received several weird telephone calls and it was a recorded message looking for someone, if I had any information call this number, yada, yada. Wasn't me, never heard of the person, didn't call them back. Then I got the call again, again recorded but this time I called the number. Apparently they are bill collectors looking for this specific person. Strange, but again, I told them not me, never heard of her, lived at this address 23 years, please remove my telephone # from their inquiry list. SO that being said, I have never GOOGLED myself before but did so yesterday and low and behold MYLIFE is showing MY personal information, my husband, his parents as connected to me, AND then showing SIX alias that I supposedly am "known as" with this (person inquired of above) last name as mine and HER relative as my relative, where THEY live! I emailed them and said no way was this person ME, I have never been "KNOWN AS", not related, don't know, don't want my profile shown with incorrect information. I asked them to remove any links from this person and to also not show my name with aliases that I have never LEGALLY used! They tried that same crap with me, I'm supposed to give them ALL of MY personal information, send them notarized documents, I am supposed to give them money and click the AGREEMENT box and join their stupid site TO FIX INCORRECT INFORMATION? Nope, didn't just fall of the turnip tree! SOOO, this site can gather incorrect information and plaster it all over the Internet, then bill collectors can start hassling me for debts that are not mine? I would join a class action suit in a heart beat! CALL ME!
I did not know about MyLife.com or reunion.. I'm always careful about my information leaking in internet. I have set everything in private setting that's online.. but when I typed my name on Goodgle search.. OMG... this MyLife.com thing pops out!
name, age, people who might be my family(well, there were many people I never heard of), places I lived in! and all the info was available for free! geez! so I googled mylife.com invasion of privacy. I saw a link for phone # to call and have them remove my name..
so I called [protected] to remove my info and the lady I talked to was nice but I was already pissed. she asked for my name, age, place I live. well, they didn't have my current information so I gave her whatever was on their site. and she transfer me to other person. i had to give her my info all over again and she asked me addresses of the address I lived in. SURE~~ I'll give u my address~ I just told her some street names. and she said okay. she said it'll take about 7 to 10 business days to remove my info. WTF I told her(even though it's not her doing..I was pissed..) it's invasion of my privacy! and she said, "yeah. I know...but we have ways to get people's informations for others who's looking for people.." whatever.. I asked her again to make sure my info is off their site. she said yes...
and then i came across this site... damn.. i should've read this too before calling...
after reading what happened to 'upset in Oregon'... i was like..no way... and I called my cell phone from my home phone...
F**K! it doesn't go to MyLife.com's # but it goes to some fax machine... I tried calling from my phone and first, it didn't even let me make out going called... but after trying 5 times, phone got through. but still no incoming calls... I called my friends to try calling my phone and my phone doesn't even ring! my friends texts me through sns n tells me it makes weird noise!
I was freaking out and about to call them again and was looking for place to report them or something THEN, about 50 mins after I got off the phone with them to remove my info, a call came through... geez... all the stress i got...
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO SHUT THIS SITE DOWN?
HOW IS THIS LEAGAL?
I mean just name & city.. then, I'll understand... but pictures, age, families, address... without any consent!
It is a gross invasion of privacy. We the people need to demand government action to stop companies like this NOW! Speak out NOW and be heard. Flood the BBB with complaints and contact Congress. If the people do not take a stand now the issue of companies solely in the business of hacking your personal data and selling it will only get worse because in time they will be able to get more and more information about you and sell it WITHOUT your knowledge or consent.
This morning after seeing one of their Television commercials, out of infinite curiosity I decided to enter my name into their initial lookup (although I did nothing beyond the initial lookup.)
I was floored seeing the amount of info they had on me, just on the free (censored area)!
1: The street address was censored, but the first three digits of my phone number was the same digits of my phone number!
2: Even worse, somehow they knew the identity of my Mother!
I view their gathering of my personal information w/o my consent for their potential financial gain as a gross invasion of privacy. I think this could be worthy of a Class-Action Lawsuit.
My late husband William Doster, 73, Kalamazoo, Mi has a picture by his name which is not he or me. we were married for 50 years. He is now deceased. the picture may have been put there by his girlfriend, NANCY HICKS cRUM, AND it may be her in the photo. My husband had 1 or more children by her and I've just recently found out that he led a double life and she was his girl friend for 51 years! I want that picture removed immediately! thank-you!

spammer
What a scam! I thought I was being looked up by old highschool/college people and signed up to see who as they promise for FREE. Didn't show me a thing unless I wanted to pay and next thing I know my name has been attached to an email to all of my email contacts and sent out saying I wanted them to join. I never authorized this or imported my contacts. Classic case of phishing. Don't even OPEN an email from MyLife. They should be prosecuted for invasion of privacy and spamming!

unauthorized credit card charges
My wife signed up for mylife.com 4 months ago. When told there was a recurring monthly charge of 19.95 and NOT a one-time charge, as she was led to believe, she immediately cancelled. The woman was extremely rude, but did say that she has cancelled my wife's account. Guess what? We got 4 more charges from saveace, before I caught it. Lesson learned. Read each months bank statements very carefully. My credit card company is changing my account number, because they consider that account number has been compromised. NEVER do business with mylife.com, or if you do, DO NOT give them any of your personal information.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I would gladly join you in beating them up and the money out of them..I am a victim of these too and - mind you: I am from overseas.. I got FBI involved, law enforcement takes action too if anything else comes up with these frauds that I have never signed up at, heck I didnt even know about them or them, I called them and gave them an earfull(mylife) complained to my CC institute and they have it under investigation at their fraud dept for credit card fraud. It would be interesting to know where they got any sign up infos since I NEVER give out my true identity and personal info like my true name, address or phone or anything else, i am always online anonymus or with an alias ID, name and addy and phone is always 0000 stuff like that, so Iwould love to know what sign up ifos they have of me hmm?
My wife did the same thing: signed up for MyLife.com on a "sale" and probably never read the supposed agreement MyLife.com states you had to read when creating an account. This agreement states you agree to also sign up for SavingsAce, whatever that is, at $19.95 a month. We cancelled both memberships by calling the SavingsAce number listed here on this web site, and the MyLife.com number listed on theirs.
Too bad these companies exist virtually because if they had a storefront, someone would be getting a serious beating.
not able to cancel as instructed
I signed up for service and after finding out more about it by browseing which can't be done until after signing up I then realized it was not something I was interested in after all but when I followed their directions to cance which is a two step process 1) you must ask- and agree to no refund and an immediate loss of privledges and so even though I paid for a month in advance I agreed to the terms and then as they further instructed to finalize the cancelation it would be necessary to follow - Step 2) by calling the number they give at the bottom of the page a number that I could not ever get through on as the number they gave is continually busy. I am concerned because I gave them my visa number later I read that other people have had a lot of problems with the outfit. I writing because I need to cancel this but don't know how. Can you help?
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Yep, I had a heck of a time getting out of reunion but I did thanks mto TrustE. I don't think TrustE
is with them anymore so they figure they can do what they want. When I searched online,
my name popped up on MyLife and I NEVER rejoined them though they claim I did! Beware
of classmates.com and namesdatabase.com as they will do that too!
This comment is for the guy who is concerned because he gave MyLife his Visa numbers.
I gave my Visa numbers to another company PhoneAgentSource and realized it was a scam shortly after finding out there was no report. I have detailed the process I went through to cancel on the PhoneAgentSource complaints board, but that is a seperate company from MyLife.
What I did before cancelling PhoneAgentSource (as there is a two-day waiting requirement) is I PHONED VISA AND CANCELLED MY VISA and the company sent me out a new credit card. My brother pointed out that, that way you can now sleep at night. View it as a learning experience, I am more wary now of any of these "free" Internet sites. Visa was very understanding and said of the $1 fee I was charged that the company is "testing the waters."
Theiving Americans. My wife signed up in the UK to find a lost friend and they still take money from us. In the UK we'd be right on their ### to stop such fraud, but you yanks seem to encourage such underhanded robbery. If there wasn't 3, 000 miles distance between our countries I'd visit mylife's offices and kick their scummy ###.
distribution of peoples credit card information to fraudulent websites
My life.com is connected to SAVEACE and also known as reunion.com. I've being recieving numerous payment on my debit card. I believe they distribute your account number to all this fraudulent company which then start making unauthorised billing.
I recieved two times billing of 4.95. i called my life and was told it was a non-refundable fee for accessing mylife.com members contacts. This was after i paid a $60 dollar one year subscription fee in june 2009 for that same purpose.
I was then billed 19.95 today july 11 2009 from saveace. Which i have no clue who they are. I called mylife.com on [protected] asking them if they knew something about the billing because i know for a fact that i never used the card for any online billing accept for mylife.com bill. mylife.com denied giving savingace my acct information but accepted giving them my email address. I called savingAce on [protected] giving them the account info i used to sign up for mylife.com and i spoke to a representative who told me that mylife.com gave them all my log on details including my credit card number.
which draws a conclusion that mylife.com sells your private information to other fraudulent websites.
renewals go to accounts not card numbers people how old are you... you signed up for savings ace because you didnt read the page...READ READ READ you wouldnt be in trouble theres a giant no button...you guys are so smart
Hey, I was charged 19.25 twice this month of July when they told me they canceled my account and gave me 55 dollars back... do you recall when signing up for MyLife that they asked for the BANK account number as well as the debit card number? or was it just the number on the card?
I'm asking because I read online that a way to stop them is canceling the card and getting a new one.
Jeffrey Tinsley is the owner and CEO of MyLife- he is also on LinkedIN and FACEBOOK- let these people know, ie, these business tactics hurt their customers, us as the consumers and lets see how they respond. Send him an email and let him know how you feel.
July 13th 2009- Nearly had the same experience. Signed up for MYlife.com on April 26th 2009 and did not notice charges from two other companies called Savings Ace and Home Shopping Mall
both have been charging my account $19.95 since April 26 2009 at the same time I signed up for MYlife.com
It's a total scam, I did not sign up for those other companies and I had to call them directly and they said they would cut a check and send me the $120.00 they took out of my account. Buyers Beware- Jeffrey Tinsley is the CEO of MyLife.com and is on FACEBOOK- send him a message about how his company lacks complete integrity and they don't care about their customers
invasion of privacy big time
This company invades your privacy. When you create your account and have a Yahoo AOL, Gmail account, it automatically requires you use the same login and password. Then it reads and DISPLAYS YOUR ENTIRE ADDRESS BOOK! Not only that but I captures a picture of me and I have no idea how. It's not a photo I've used except for FaceBook. Their offer for FREE i...
Read full review of MyLife and 17 commentsemail theft
I received an email inviting me to join and started the process but didn't complete it. I then decided to go on and see what it was all about and imagine my surprise in finding my contact list on their site. I never imported my email list for them to bug people so this is theft. And you can't email them to complain only write and call. So delete any email from mylife.com and definitely add to spam list.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Your an idiot! I have a subscription and it asks you if you would like to transfer your contacts and look for them. It gives you two opportunities to avoide transferring your contacts if you overlooked it the first time. Read before getting excited and skipping every process!

misused info
I was made aware that my email address was stolen from a friend's address book by someone hacking into her computer info base. We became aware of this when we began receiving email from MyLife.com and confirming with our friends that they had never submitted our info to MyLife.com. I want to make sure that this company is held accountable for its actions. I don't know what other info they have of mine that they don't have a right to!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
This site has no right pulling pictures and blog information and posting it when the person hasn't even been to mylife.com. I didn't sign up for this site, yet a picture of myself and blog information that I deleted from some other site because I realized I made a mistake posting it, is on here without my consent. I just got off the phone with their removal department and this should be removed in 7 days. Everyone who has ever had a social networking page and has since deleted it, you may surprised and pissed off that your "deleted" information is on here whether you like it or not. You can have it removed, but this is completely wrong posting information when you do not want it viewed by the public. Maybe a day in court will stop this from happening?

put in information without my permission
I was rearching a business meeting for next week and googled the person i was meeting with. The first link was a mylife.com that had pictures with it. I opened it and logged on (which I thought was for security) the login required name email age and zip code. I put that in but when it asked for $5 I got out of it. When returning to this site from my computer history, my profile which I did not create (only a login) had a comment on it that I was looking for men within a 20 mile radius. I DID NOT PUT THIS IN A PROFILE AND AM FURIOUS THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN WITHOUT PERMISSION. I AM CALLING THE BETTER BUSINESS B. I AM ALSO CONTACTING A LAWYER.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
MyLife.com will not provide me any access to the information they have displayed on their website regarding my background information unless I give them a credit card number and am willing to be charged for my review of the information. I demand access to all the information they have displayed under my name.
This is a major privacy violation. This site has no right pulling pictures and blog information and posting it when the person hasn't even been to mylife.com.

It is pretty clear they just use people's names to get money out of them or others. A combination of extortion or a violation of the above law.
scam
Received an email from this company saying that a person I know (and they named the person) had invited me to join the website and view their site and pictures. This was an outright lie. I contacted the person and she said they did the same thing to her, it appeared that somehow they had breached her email address book and sent this to people in her email...

I signed up and requested a refund less than two minutes later after realizing this is the same company as reunion.com and a total scam.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I did use this tool few times and I subscribed from it. In the first, it was good but in other time I use it. It somehow not giving the results I want or at least show some significant results. So what I did was I use other tool like https://www.checkpeople.com/

my life stinks
Just like everyone else apparently, I signed up for 3 months clicked appropriate buttons, and they attempted to change me $131 + $41. I bounced a check because I was only expected what their website indicated, $39 for 3 months. I develop websites and can confirm MyLife.com is intentionally deceptive with the intent to defraud people online and do so with plausible deniability.
We called the company to receive refund and they refunded back half of what they stole from me. They verbally refused a full refund. However my credit card is not showing the refund, they indicate it takes 7 days. We'll see. Either way it is time for all of us victims to file legal action and contact the States this online fraud has occurred.
I saw a commercial on TV for a free search, for who's searching for you. I went to the website and it was suppose to be free 7 day trial until you give them your information, and then they took out $191.40 and $155.40 from my account. I called them 2 minutes later and they would NOT refund my money and had already took it out of my account! After my complaining, they finally said they would refund my money all except $18.96 and cancel my account. I basically got nothing for my money and I'm NOT sure they will refund my money back into my account. They said it will take up to 10 days for the refund! SHUT THIS SCAM DOWN, PLEASE!
I hve received an email, that the person i have been looking for that they have found and have the information. A total scam ! They make up false information and are charging my paypal account.
Pay pal should take them off their list of businesses they deal with,

I went to the site and purchased a one month membership for $10.95. I received an email that said that I had purchased a premium membership for $95.40. I called their customer service number and was told that the browser that I was using (Internet Explorer) had reloaded the page and changed my box checked (one month membership) to the premium membership. Can you believe that? They said that they would refund $84.00 back to my account. I find it difficult to believe someone after being so blatantly lied to. I called my bank and now I am waiting. I just want to warn other people so that this may not happen to someone else. It appears to me that this company is engaging in shady and fraudulent practices.
went to sign up to mylife.com had to go through membersavings.com before i could get to mylife.com called the number they gave me to call and cancel [protected] recordind told me to call [protected] said there would be about a $4.00 charge on phone bill called the number and was cut off after about a minute it said i could call 1 800 then was cut off what can be done to get my money back would like to know please
they robbed me! I was signing up for a "free" trial but had to put my credit card information in for once my "free" trial was over, LIARS! They Charged me $107! STAY AWAY FROM THIS WEBSITE THEY WOULD NOT GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK EVEN THOUGH I CALLED 2 MINUTES AFTER I REALIZED WHAT HAPPENED. THEY ARE THIEVES AND I WILL BE REPORTING THIS!
They took $20 from my bank without my permission. The problem is that I never used them and they don't want to refund money! What can I do about this?
unauthorized charges
In February 2009, I signed up with MyLife.Com for $60 in hopes of finding old classmates. This site turned out to be a waste of good money. Then, in March of 2009 an amount of $19.95 was charged to my bank card. I had been traveling and thought that I must have lost track of a receipt.
BUT - in April a charge for the same amount of $19.95 was charged to my bank card.
I tried calling the number listed next to the charge with the name of SavingsAce. The number was totally automated and wanted my card number to get any kind of response. But the automation kept repeating the numbers back to me out of order, so I just hung up after several tries.
I immediately called my bank and went in to sign dispute papers. We canceled my card. I found this Web Site and see that I am not the only person with the very same problem.
Let's get these guys and hopefully even our $60 from MyLife.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I changed internet providers and lost my email addresses. I did a search to see if I could find it and Email Finders popped up. For 1.95 for 1 email address I of course tried to go for it. After giving my payment information I was given other options of things to purchase and I denied all of them. At the point when I was told to hit next for my requested e-mail address I was all of a sudden sent to My Life.com (formerly Reunion.com) I immediately dropped out of the web site as at that moment realizing I'd been scammed into something, I didn't want to begin with.
I then received an e-mail confirmation from e-mail finders.com thanking me for joining and advising me they would be taking $23.40 out of my account and that I was a member for 1 year. I was furious and reported them to the Internet Crime Unit, Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General's office. I consider myself pretty internet savy but this was real slick and like a first class fool I fell for it. Please beware of these websites.
They have taken money out of my account without my authorization, that is stealing right?
Then a year later after i had already contacted the company they charged me again, i wonder if they thaught i wouldn't notice...
They use spyware to infiltrate peoples private information, now they have comercials on the TV, they are lawbreakers and are using ill gotten gains to advertise now. This organization needs to be investigated. My biggest concern is that there are probably many customers of theirs that are unaware they are recieving anual charges from mylife.com, because they don't need your authorization once they have your info.
What do you want me to say.
My Name is Gwendoln Jemison, I'm writing to cancellation or Mylife website because of the money was taken
out of my bank last month
It seems that this company called "Shopping Essentials" was able to obtain my debit card number when I signed up for Mylife.com - There are a number of stories associated with mylife giving out information. This company "Shopping Essentials" has been accessing my checking account since January for 29.95 oer month. I have requested that the money be refunded by Shopping Essentials. After looking into this, I see that this has been occuring to many people through companies with similiar names. I did file a report for with the BBB locally in IL, but the company appears to have so many different names and addresses that it may be hard to locate them. So thanks for sharing your stories! I will wait and see if the BBB does anything if not, then I will go to the state's DA and file complaints.

I am an attorney researching the business practices of WWW.REUNION.COM and WWW.MYLIFE.COM.
I am interested in their practices as it relates to the SCRAPING OF EMAIL ADDRESS BOOKS.
Here's a few questions for all:
1) were you enticed to visit reunion.com after an email came to you, appearing like it was from a friend, inviting you to join reunion.com?
2) do you feel the terms of service and privacy policy noted on the site explained what exactly reunion.com was going to do to your email address book?
3) Were your email address contacts emailed an invitation to join reunion.com after receiving an invitation which claimed you sent them the invite?
4) was your email address book hijacked?
So as to support my interest and qualify my identity, I would refer you to a few of my recent cases I filed this past year, so that you can confirm that I do represent individuals in internet privacy matters. Google my recent cases:
lane v facebook,
valentine v nebuad
simon v adzilla
Once you locate these cases, review the atorneys noted, and then confirm I have the same email as the attorney noted on the lawsuit:
"Attorney Joseph H Malley

Anyone with information, please contact me in confidence at: malleylaw@gmail.com
thanks

What happened to Raul has happened to me. I've since had to cancel my credit card in order to stop any further theft by Mylife.com. Just as well for those criminals that I live around the other side of the world.
Thanks for mentioning canceling your card. I will do that Monday.
They have cancellation of account info, but it's a phone number and one gets put on hold.
Maybe it was because of the online story i read last week and many people got the message?

This site is a total scam. Read all the small print when you are accepting the terms and conditions. Mylife.com markets their site for $5/mo for a year subscription however when signing up they charge the full $60 as a one time fee. On top of this they enroll you in an affiliate company that charges an additional $19.95. I have tried to cancel this subscription and get a refund and both companies have been very evasive and non-cooperative. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY!

Paid upgrade Sunday 8/18/2024 Why does it ask me again to pay too see my info
Refund from my life...The site did not work...I did not get to complete reading anything...It kept skipping around...Please refund today...This is not the first time i have asked for a refund...I will be checking my bank often for my redund...Beverla stovall...My email is...stovall1415@gmail.com
I already filled out those forms
You charged me for something I didn't want.
On 11/27/23 I Agreed to a fee of one dollar to confirm a name search. MYLIFE charged my account 155.10 twice. It's a fraud.
I made a transaction on 19 Nov 2023 for 1 dollar. This morning i find I was charged 155.00. I did not subscribe for this and could this transaction be cancelled.
I wanted to sign up for one month access for a 24.95, and then was charged an additional $155 for additional services I didn't want or authorize. It is intentionally misleading to get credit card information then charge beyond the original service
I used their website to look up a person's phone number. They stated that it would be a one time 99 cents charge, no recurring charges.
Next day I see a charge of $95.40 from MyLife.
Definitely a SCAM
STAY AWAY FROM
NOT TO BE TRUSTED
I HAD TO CANCEL MY CREDIT CARD THAT I USED FOR THE TRANSACTION.
Demand to have information on Neil J. Rouse II age 69 removed. Information is false, misleading, and I will not give you money just to correct. This company insists on you BUYING a membership just to have false information removed. This is blackmail.
I paid a one time fee . For a trial . And, they’re trying to go in my account 2 times with different fees and I never signed up for it. This was last month and here they go again trying to withdraw funds 44.00 and 22.00 in the same day . I want my 44.00 back from last month .
No contract exists between the Minnesota Assumed Name business type I operate and control as Nameholder, and your agency. The information and ALL data contained on the website linked above to the legal name shown is to be destroyed and the link removed. ALL DATA IS INVALID AND INCORRECT.
Thank you for cooperating.

Apparently there was some check box or something that I overlooked when I signed up for MyLife.com (formerly Reunion.com) that allows their “affliliates” to have access to your credit / debit information.
I got an email from Savingsace.com that said the were going to start debiting my bank account. After spending time on the phone with MyLife (who had an “Oh well you must have authorized it attitude) and doing research I have located a toll-free [protected] at Savingsace.com to cancel your membership.
At first they ask for your membership number, telephone number, and creditcard number followed by the # sign. (YEAH RIGHT…I sure wasn’t about to give them my phone number and credit card number again)
I only entered the membership number and then the # sign. It took me to a menu to cancel. It said to hit a number to cancel and seemed to accept it.
I also have been emailing the reunion.com / mylife.com people to complain about their association with this company. I can’t believe that ultimately the revenue they might be getting for referrals is worth this bad press.
Just got my cc bill and saw a charge for 119.00 for MY LIFE ~ called customer service... said it can't be refunded but, will cancel the auto renew on if for next year! I had never even verified my email address with them... I'm going to post on my website and on my facebook page for people NEVER to use this site ~ This company needs to be shut down! Very upset with them and will never use or suggest this site to anyone... getting in contact with the BBB also!
How can I delete my account?I live in UK and dont really want to spend money on the phone... Thank you.
False advertising. The tv ad says find out who is looking for you for free. Then when you try they charge you. I did not pay and just saw that it was someone in La, and I dont know anyone there. As far as looking up people this site couldnt find their own hand in their pocket. Stay away from them.
greenrover 12/16/2010
I was told two people was looking for me so i joined for one
month at 1495 and went on mylife to find out who and found
out thier was no one looking for me after mylife got the money
I tried to use a $1.00 ad on Mylife to find a person. I gave the first name, middle initial and last name and age. They showed five With first and last name no age and all wrong. That was fine. Under 'PhoneAgents', they charged that $1.00. Then a week later they charged $18.95 while I was gone. No w they have charged another $18.95. Mylife sent me this message "Your message has been received by our system. The ticket code for this enquiry is LTK151039522058X". Nothing more. Scam?
I AGREE WITH EVERYONE, THEY LIE TO YOU ABOUT THE PRICE, I DID NOT FIND ANYONE i WAS LOOKING FOR INCLUDING MY SELF. I THINK WE SHOULD ALL GET TOGETHER AND CALL THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU.
