This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.
I have never even been to this site or its affiliates, yet somehow my bank info was used for a $70.00 charge. This is fraud and identity theft. Why is this site even still on the net? Please go a step further and report them to www.ftc.gov.
Now they have a new name it's WC' Funsource Monthly$ 19.95...Call them again for third to cancel never authorize them...

I have never heard of these people. Today I checked my acct. and see they took out 2 charges of $19.95 each. My bank gave me their number and told me to call them. Of course, I did and they are closed since it's Saturday. I went on line and they had a form to fill out to cancel membership - Of course when I clicked to submit the form I got the page "this web page cannot be displayed". So now I have to wait until MOnday to call them. I am so pissed - I told my bank that if a check bounces because of this, it is not my fault. Banks really should stop unauthorized people from going into their accounts. So once I get this straightened out, I'm going to see if I can change my debit card number and get a new one.

I ordered a product and got this as a notice after the fact. I did not sign up for them to charge my credit card 19.95 a month! This scam needs to be stopped. When I tried to cancel, their website was conveniently not available! Where is our protection from anyone at all getting access to our banking when all we do is order online. My computer verified this was a "safe" site, too!

These people "Value Plus" are absolute total scammers. If this is the result of ordering items on the internet,
and people's account numbers are being given, or more likely sold, to these creeps it could certainly cause many to discontinue ordering ANYTHING on the net. Someone had better put a stop to this before even more innocent
people are involved. How many times do these s.o.b.'s. get to steal money from people and get away with it!
What the heck does it take?

This company Membership Services has been taking out $16.95 out of my bank account for four months now. After I called the 1800 number on my statement I spoke with a representative that could give me no information. They had no idea what the charge was for, all she could tell me was that it was a monthly fee for a membership that I signed up for. I was so angry, I demanded to speak with a supervisor who turned out to be even more incompetent than the rep. The supervisor's name was Jessica and of course she could not give me her last name, all she could tell me was that I need to pay more attention to what I was doing. I have never recived anything in the mail, or ever even authorized any type of transaction. This did it for me. I totally flipped out on her and hung up the phone. I immediately called my bank to file a claim, as long as the chargers were posted they refunded me the money, started a claim, and cancelled my card so that they cannot charge me in the future. The nerve of these people. They take money out of your account without your authorization, and when you call for information they refuse to give you any! It's my money! all I know is that I will not rest until something is done, and if Jessica thinks that's the last she's heard from me, she's got another thing coming!

Its not their fault that you dont pay attention to your credit card statements. plus you do sign up for these by either entering your email address, putting in the last 4 digits of you credit card number or saying yes over the telephone. and plus do you know how many people have tried suing them or calling the attorneys general you arent going to get anywhere its just going to be blown off. and plus jvinas25 you really think that jessica is going to talk to you again yeah right. so why dont ya'll stupid people look at your credit card statements and pay attention. cause nothing is going to happen to membership services.

I also noticed that for the second month in a row, I had a charge of $19.95 for something called WC *Value Plus-V [protected] MN. When I called the number, I got the message that you can go to a website: www.programstops.com to cancel your membership. While on hold, I attempted to go to the site from work, and this is the message I got: Access Denied: "Spyware/Malware Sources;Spyware Effects/Privacy Concerns;Placeholders. I finally got through on the phone, and asked what the 'membership' was for. I was told it was a membership to receive discounts on travel and vacations in conjunction with another product that I had purchased. I asked why, if I was a paying member, did I not receive any information about the program, and a membership package so I could take advantage of the program I was paying for. The customer service rep said they would send the membership package out right away. I said not to bother, just cancel my membership. I was told immediately (no hesitation, no arguement, no pause) that my membership was now cancelled and to call if there are any additional charges on my credit card. I contacted my credit card company and let them know not to accept any additional charges. Thankfully I only had 2 withdrawls, but it sounds to me like others have let this go through for months, even years. Obviously, we all need to be careful to check each transaction going forward, and question it if we don't know what the charges are for. Good Luck everyone!

Bennie Laubhan Jr at laubhan@aol.com I have been charged 19.95 the last two months. I do not know this place WC*ValuePlus. I do not know how they got my number. How can they keep scamming people? The whole company should be placed behind bars as they are stealing. I would like my money refunded and something done about these parasites.

My bank acct has been charged for the past 3 months 19.95 by a company I have never heard of and didn't authorize. It is called WC Homeplay. I called the number, [protected] and was told to go to this website. I can see now that this has been going on for a long time and to hundreds of people. I bet most people don't even know it's going on. How are these ###s able to stay in business and how can they be stopped.

I had the misfortune of ordering a "free trial" for spider veins back in 12/10. It was junk and I returned it within the 30 day trial, but I had given them my debit card to pay for shipping charges. I was supposed to get a free $50 visa card, gas rebate, free 30 day membership to some kind of club where you get discounts on restaurants, movies, hotels etc, even though I don't get out much (disabled, unable to work or travel and on a fixed income). I figured a $50 visa gift card and gas rebate would come in handy and I could cancel before the 30 days was up. I never got a thing from them with the exception of them stealing $24.95 twice on 1/9/11 and twice on 2/9/11. I do not get a paper statement from the bank and looked at my account in early 2/11, saw the January debits and went on line and filled out their programstop form. When I submitted it, I get a blank screen...no confirmation, nothing. I thought "well, maybe that is all I have to do" but on 2/13/11, I checked my bank account and find no refunds, but 2 more $24.95 charges. I filled out their form 3 more times, sent them an email, called (but the message says they are closed and refers you to the website).I cannot wait til 2/14/11 so I can call them and go to my bank and report them. I need my money back! High medical expenses & terminally ill husband. These people are thieves.

My bad for not noticing the 21.95 charge on my account for so many months. But Membership Services, a Division of Customer Relationship Services (now there's a contridiction in terms) VERY BAD for being an unethical company. You really can't even call them a company considering the scam and fraud they administer to unsuspecting consumers every day. I don't know how Amanda and the others can even go to work there each day with a clear conscience. I'm also considering switching banks since Bank of America didn't cover my losses for something I did not want or chose to purchase. Seems if there is some kind of small print nosense add-on we are not protected by the Credit Card Banking laws. This is fraud - plain and simple.
