Unauthorized Subscription Ordered
Today, I found an unauthorized charge on my bank card for $1.00. The bank told me that it was from Budget Savers. When I called them, I was informed that I had started a trial membership over the phone. That is an outright lie! They promised to refund my $1.00. They had my card number from the trial subscription that I Did order, way back in August, and then cancelled successfully. I NEVER did get the the free gift (gas rebate) that I was promised. WHAT A SCAM!
Did not cancel when requested
This company offered a $100 gas card for providing them with your CC information and allowing them to charge your card for $1 for a 30 day trial period. Never received the $100 gas card and cancelled after the trial period ended. However this company still charged my card and when I called they said they never received any cancellation request and this time when I asked for a confirmation number of the cancellation the gentleman was not very forthcoming. Asked for a credit for these unauthorized charges was told I would receive something in the mail that I could fill out and then send back to them. Had to turn to my CC company and dispute the charges and am very thankful for the help the CC company offered on my behalf. I felt like I had tried to do the right thing and cancel within their specified parameters but this company did not uphold their end.
When you cancel always try and get proof. If you speak with a merchant on the phone get a cancellation number or preferably put your cancellation in writing either via an email ( keep a copy whether they respond doesnt matter you have proof it was sent) or a fax ( keep a copy of fax with fax confirmation) or a registered letter ( keep copy of letter with registration reciept from post office) Never send regular mail, they can always say we never received anything. If you send registered, they have to sign for it meaning its been received
have never received the packet they were supposed to send
I was called on November 1, 2014 by Budget Savers and told they would send me a "packet" describing how I could save AT LEAST $ 30.00 per month on all kinds of services and at all kinds of stores. They took $ 1.00 initial fee out of my checking account and I have NEVER heard another word. No "packet", no follow-up phone call to see if I received it and had any questions...NOTHING! There has been NO communication from them...I was told to contact the number on the "packet" to cancel within 14 days. With NO "packet", I have NO PHONE NUMBER TO CALL ! I want this company blocked from hitting my checking account and I want this mess cancelled IMMEDIATELY, but they have given me NO WAY to get in touch with them!
No Knowledge before hand of charge
I didn't even know about this company until I investigated a $1 pending charge that I noticed on my checking account the previous day. I never okay, authorized or knew about this until I looked up who it was coming from. I'm mad as Hell right now and I'm not gonna except this charge; as soon as the bank opens tomorrow I will be there, and then I will call these Thieving scammers to make sure that this never happens again and cancel this 'account' that I don't even know exist. I have no former knowledge or email from them.

Unauthorized Charges from bank account
Recently my elderly father ordered a hearing aid from a tv ad he saw, and got overcharged for the "free" items they offered him. Soon after he was contacted by Budget Savers offering him a lot of free stuff...he adamantly refused the offer, and told them he wasn't interested. Today he discovered a $29.95 charge from Budget Savers on his bank statement. He tried calling the number for them and got a recording that the number was disconnected. Now he has to cancel his card and get a new one, and call all of his utility companies and have them change the billing card number because of these SCAMMERS at Budget Savers. Why can't something be done to shut these a..holes down? They prey on elderly people who aren't savvy enough on today's dishonest practices, steal money from them and then disappear and pop up somewhere else.

This is a phone scam I ended up receiving after being scammed by a Natural Garcinia trial, they call and ask for your card number and send a letter in the mail of "free gift opportunities" and "savings", however there is no indication of the trial period (I believe it's 14 days) or the amount they will charge for an auto-renewing membership after that trial is up.
This doesn't seem fair at all. Sorry for you trouble!
I believe that their practices are misleading the public to get people to subscribe to them
I ordered the product called Tag a Way. They then tried to get me to subscribe to a company called Budget Savers. The company Budget Savers said I can cancel anytime and I can keep the 60 dollar Walmart or Target card for just trying their product they then wanted me to confirm my debit card info. I asked why and they told me that they were going to charge me a dollar for the first fourteen days or so for trying them out and I can keep the 60 dollar Walmart or Target card. I declined the Budget Savers.
They are misleading as to making me believe that they are giving me 60 dollars just to try their product. I found out because I noticed that 60 dollars was put back into my bank account. I believe that their practices are misleading the public to get people to subscribe to them.
Wanted cc info
I ordered something online and received a confirmation email saying that my order was processed and was going to be shipped; 3 days later I received a phone call from a nice lady saying the speech that someone posted earlier. Anyway we went through the whole gas card thing and she going to transfer me to someone else, this person claimed to be with the shipping department and needed my cc number again to process and send out my order. Maybe he meant the budget savers order but it was implied that my original order would not be sent. I told him I would not give out my cc # again as I had received an email saying my order was going to be shipped. Having worked for an identity protection company I am suspicious of everyone (after hearing so many horror stories you get a little jaded I guess) I told him again I would not give out my number he persisted that my order would not be sent, I then told him to give me a number to call him back to verify that it was a legitimate company and he gave me [protected]. I called the company I ordered my product from and they informed me that my order was shipped yesterday. I guess this budget savers didn't do anything illegal but they are deceptive. Always be careful, when in doubt call the original company to verify any need for information to be given out again and lastly its redundant but if something sounds too good to be true IT IS! NOTHING IS FREE!

I am trying to get a phone number for this so called company. They too are taking monies from my checking acct that I did not sign up for or authorize .If any one can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
Subsciption Cancellation
Called in February 2010 to cancel membership. Representative was extremely rude to me when I attempted to cancel the subscription. She tried everything in her manner for me to keep the subscription. I should have called back the next day to confirm the confirmation that the membership was indeed cancelled. I should have looked closely at my credit card statement, but I didn't, my fault. I see two charges of over $24.85 on my credit card. I attempted to explain the situation to the rep, but to no avail. She cancelled my subscriptions, and I received in the mail that they have proof that I subscribed to the membership. I want them to find my phone call proofing that I cancelled. I am also complaining to the BBB.
I was promised free stuff for my area plus a free $100 gas voucher, which I have yet to receive, and I had 30 days to look over everything to cancel, and keep the Gas voucher if I cancelled. They took $29.95 off my debit card, and I have yet to receive anything. The voucher also takes 4-6 weeks for you to get your money, since I haven't received anything yet, I do not know if that is true or not.
unapproved withdraw from account
I ordered a Criss Angel magic kit for my grandson for christmas this week, the following day budget savers called to verify my purchase, of course I did, I never gave them any account information, but they told me they were sending me $100.00 worth of free gas certificates, remember the word free. I never gave them permission to take any monies out of my account, I have no clue how they even got my information, but after checking my account a few minutes ago I noticed a hold for tomorrow for $1.00. I guess I will go to the bank Friday, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I don't think this will be the last withdrawl from these people! I still have'nt gotten chared for the magic kit! Boy these scammers work quick!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Just a note: I have successfully disputed all charges, and recouped all the money.
I had the same thing. The day after my order they called in to "confirm". They offered coupons, which I clearly refused. They hung up on me. The next day, I got $180 charge on my account. The kit was only $40. Will be disputing shortly. Avoid this company.
Has your problem with the company been resolved yet?
Thank you for that information. Unfortunately I just ordered the Criss Angel Magic kit for my daughter and when I last checked my account balance, there were 2 unapproved charges from Angel Productions Incorporated. Yikes, it's only been a day! Headed to the bank first thing in the morning.
cancellation
I purchased I renew braclet on line from I renew.com - after purchase they put on marketing people I listen called was recorded they said I would recieve materials in mail and look at them and would have time to cancel if I wanted to. there was a one dollar trial charge which expired 11/16/2010 - it came with a free 100 gas coupon. I recieved the material today ll/18/2010 - went on line to get the 100 free gas voucher and couldn't do it and read complaints from other people who had the same problem. I called to cancel, spoke to Jonathan who was very abrupt and told me I was doing the wrong thing to get the gas voucher I tried what he said but didn't work, I told him to cancel the account and asked what my credit card whas charged he said 29.95 I just received the material and called as soon as I could, but missed the trial date by 2days so that's why they charged the 29.95 dollars. To me the whole thing was a scam I had asked if my card would be charged and was told I had enough time to cancel after reading the materials. I will put a dispute in with my charge card but somebody should stop this. I am a senior but I trusted that they were telling me the truth. the tial ended on the 16th and I recieved the material on the 18 and Jonathan said they gave me a telephone# to call to cancel - never happened I was supposed to get the material first. thank Mrs. R.DeMonte

Fraud
I was online looking over my account and I realized thatfor the last 6 months my account has been charged 24.95 for what I don't know. I have never heard of this company before and I did not realize this was happening I called the company and they said that I bought something online and made a purchase and that is how they got my info real creepy if yu ask me however when you call them they seem to know that some foul play has gone on and they said they would send me a refund request form in the mail.

These people call you talking so fast telling you what they supposedly offer--free gas cards, free gift cards and all kind of savings from tons of stores--they won't tell you how they got your phone number or other info--said they are not allowed to. Before you know it--you are signed up for their bogus offer. Even if you call and ancel they still take money out of your checking account. It should be against the law for people to get away with things like this. The website they give you isn't a valid site. You can't even click into it. With the way the economy is--we all need our money. Be aware of these people !
I have just realized that this happened to me as well... Did you get your refund?
HOW DO YOU PEOPLE DO WHAT YOU DO
RIP PEOPLE OFF ON A DAILY BASIS
DO YOU SLEEP WELL @ NIGHT

to Dina Smart,

I have gotten charged 24.95 for the past three months and just relized it and called my banks dispute center. Appartently thats your best option to resolve the issue at least it was for me, now i had to change my card information and some other things to stop them from charging me again. The company when trying to cancel gave me a run around saying they would send me something in the mail 7 to 10 buisness days later. Its bull, all of it. I'm going to be getting 24.95 back times 3 months so its a big sigh of relief. I'm just sadend to see that companies like this are still out there, jewing us out of our money. No offense to jewish people.
They called me over two weeks ago. I just received my package yesterday, saying I only have until 4/3/10 to cancel before I am charged. I was supposed to have a 30 day trial, but since they were so late in sending me the package, I only have 15 days. They are probably hoping that I'll not cancel in time. I am actually going to cancel today. They promised me $40 in free gas. He said the $40 is mine whether I cancel after my trial membership or not. But when I went to the website to get my free gas vouchers, I see that you can only claim $10, every three months. I am going to send in a gas receipt now and see if I get my $10. I will bet though that if I cancel my membership today, that I will not be able to collect the additional $30 in free gas that they promised me. Oh well...as long as they don't charge my credit card more than the $1 trial membership, I'll be fine. If they charge me more than that, there will be some serious hell to pay. I will turn them into the Better Business Bureau, the State's Attorney, etc. On the letter they sent me, it said you can cancel by calling [protected] or by going to www.programstop.com. I should have went with the gut feeling, that it was too good to be true. The first guy I talked to transferred me to some fast talking girl who tried to sell me more crap, but I said NO, NO, NO! They got my phone number through Peoplefinder.com. So help me God, if Budgetsavers charges me more than they should, Peoplefinders will hear about it from me for giving my contact info to a scamming company.
They told me if I send back a cancellation in the mail after I received the package, then I could cancell in the first thirty days...so I returned it and called them to cancel, they said no problem...then I get a charge of 24.95 on my card a month later, so I call them again and they ask for a cancellation number...which they hadnt given me. So they tell me paperwork will come in the mail for cancellation...to hell they should freaking go...I got a cancellation number now and if they charge me again my credit card company will take a dispute from me and stop the charges and report them...REPORT THEM! Thats they fastest way to shut them down...asap.
scam!!!!!
This is so wrong for them to be allowed to the public! How is this looked over? The way the economy is and everyone is looking for a bargain because times are so tough. The person in charge of this should be locked up . Nothing they said was true ! NOTHING! they tell you that you will recieve your information within a few days and that you have 14 days to cancel but I didnt even get the piece of paper until the 14 days had passed. I called and told them my money had better be deposited back into my account and she agreed and I even told her I wanted my dollar back too not just the 24.95. I could say alot more but I dont have the time and if I don't get my money back within 5 days they haven't heard the last from me.

Scam!!!
Budget Savers is a scam..They acquire your information from companies you place orders with online. Their phone number is [protected]. Their services are provided by PROVELL INC. P.O. Box 5265, Hopkins, MN [protected]. I want everyone to have this information in case you want to file a suit against this company. They do not cancel even after you call them..I had to make 7 calls for cancellation before they finally canceled. Still not for sure that i am canceled. Hope this information is helpful. good luck to you all.

it is a con. how they work is they guarantee you free gift cards saying you can cancel anytime but there is a catch. each on of these website makes you sign up and tell you there going to take out a 1.00 to process. what they do not tell you is within 1 month you with be charged 19.95, 24.95 and another 19.95 to use all these services a month. What they do is sell your information for money disclosing your age, your likes to companies to get you hooked. if you cancel you have to wait a month to get a voucher for the gift card. then they say it will take 2 months to process and you will get your gift card. i cancelled them they all have a different contact number but they only give you one number and they tell you its easy to cancel call this number and it will be cancelled all 3. you have to go to their website and get 3 different numbers cancel them all and you get a voucher gift card. shoppers advantage and great fun will send you the gift card 2 months later there legitimate company. however budget savers who sells your personal information will not allow you to get your free cards. you see there trick is they sell you the other 2 legitimate companies Grat fun and shoppers advantage. You will get your 40.00 gift card from shoppers advantage and a 25 american express card from shoppers advantage. I found out that budget savers con is they help get people to sign up for other advertising sites but lie to you on the phone. That is a cover up because anyone who agrees while they are on the phone will be on a journey to switch for numbers. When I called budget savers up they acted like they never called you and did not know the other numbers. this is done on purpose so you would forget about the real ### budget savers. They send you on a rollercoaster ride and lie to you how to get off it they want you to direct this to other companies. Budget savers does not send you gift cards they charge you 1.00 and sell your information like facebook does to make money. facebook sells your info to corporate companies to find out what you like so does facebook to make money but the difference is facebook does not charge a fee. so budget savers makes a 1.00 off of everyone sells your personal info to lots of people and never gives you anything. every month after free trial on budget savers is 24.95. they will let you cancel but will not give you any info on the other two industries great fun and shoppers advantage. bottom line stay away from budget savers they are con artists. as for the other 2 if you go to their websites there numbers are there call them cancel right away send them the voucher back and you will get your gift card 3 months later for trying it out. budget savers lies to you from the beginning and will keep charging you remember if a month is up and your waiting for your gift card to come in the mail then the charge is your fault because your free trial ends after 30 days to get your free voucher takes about 3 months to get in the mail. so they get to charge you 2 months because you did not cancel yet be careful but the bad guys here are budgetsavers. i told them to play a recording of what they told me on the phone they do not because everything they told you is a lie and they try to direct you to the other companies so you forget about the big problem budgetsavers.com budget savers after 1 month 24.95 shoppers advantage 19.95 and great fun 19.95. shoppers advantage and great fun lets you cancel right away. they send you a voucher you have to sign to get your gift card. about 2 months later you will get your gift card from them budget savers nothing budget savers sends you book where you can save 10 % on gas add the vouchers up they add up to probably 100.00 with your subscription but they lie to you because they guarantee 100.00 gift card and you get nothing. i ordered sunglasses from the home shopping network and after i purchased the glasses a guy from budget savers picked up the phone and said you try this and cancel you will get free gift card and if you try these other 2 you get 2 other gift cards. i said i was not interested he said its only a 1.00 trial cancel anytime and these gifts will be yours absolutely free. i said no he said thank you gave me a phone number hung up and 2 weeks later i saw 3 charges of 1.00 for these things. the glasses i bought was hd sunglasses off the home shopping network. i filed a complaint about them cause i want to know who the heck was this guy when all i wanted was to buy the sunglasses.
budget savers collects your personal info sells it for a profit to other companies then they hide it by directing youto the two the other 2 companies so u forget about them stay away from them or you will get 50, 00.00 companies calling you you never heard of and they tell me they got my name from budgetsavers. be careful of them.
Darn right I'm filing ! They charged me $24.95 a day for the past three days...forcing me to have to get new cards through my bank and dispute the charges. I have no idea who they are, or how they got my information !
Thank you! They called me too, and I am upset, never received anything in the mail. And no contact info, I thought they were a part of the company I placed my order with...so I was on my earpiece driving when they called
thank you so much for that information. I came here to begin with because today they had charged my account for the 'membership' and with that phone number i was able to cancel and get a refund. So they said anyway. I'm now going to wait 3-5 business days to see if i got my money back.
again i appreciate the information.
unauthorized withdrawal from my checking account
I printed out my bank statement and, much to my dismay, noticed a company called Budget Savers was skimming 24.95 off of my checking account on a mnthly. basis. Of course, I have received NOTHING from this company and am even unsure of what they do other than embezzle money from struggling people like myself. I have NO IDEA how they obtained my card info either. I immediately called their toll-free # and could reach no one because it was the weekend. I then contacted my bank and placed an immedite stop on my ATM card and requested complaint/reimbursement forms for three months worth of bank withdrawals: my bank is great at handling these matters. Today-Monday- called BS (ironic?) again and spoke with a supervisor who claimed I would have to fill out a "request for refund" form albeit I was DEMANDING I get my money back, ie I didn't get far. When I threatened to contact the BBB, the sup. warned me that taking such action would prolong, or even deny me a refund despite the fact she could not answer what exactly the company did OR how my credit card # was obtained: she evaded any and all of my questions. This company is DEFINITELY a SCAM and I have read on the complaint sites that they allegedly offer grocery coupons and/or gas cards but I have received NOTHING other than a lot of grief and waste of my valuable time trying to get my money back from these jerks. BEWARE OF BUDGET SAVERS AND IF YOU HAVE ONLINE BANKING BE SURE AND CHECK YOUR STATEMENTS MONTHLY BECAUSE MANY/MOST BANKS CAN ONLY REIMBURSE BACK TO A PARTICULAR DATE, IE THREE MONTHS-DEPENDING!

Budget Savers is a scam. Their service providers are PROVELL INC. P.O.BOX 5265, Hopkins, MN [protected]..Maybe they can help you since budget savers refuses..I wish you good luck. These people need to be stopped!

Fraudulent Phone Calls
Budget Savers has been calling my cell phone for a month and I have never answered because the number was not familiar. Finally annoyed enough, I answered, to barely understand what was being told to me by a woman with a strong East Indian accent. I did hear the name Budget Savers though, and I immediately stopped the woman to tell her that I had heard of their so-called company and that I did not want anything they were offering, not to send me anything in the mail, and not to charge me for anything I did not want. Before I could finish, she had hung up on me. So now, I don't know what to expect! I don't know what sort of financial information they have on me and I do not want any fraudulent charges on any of my accounts. What they are doing should be illegal. If it is illegal, they need to be stopped.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
This company is a scam. I was called about a 30 day free trial service, but my debit card was billed from a book that I ordered on line.
I did not authorize the membership to Budget Savers or Value Plus. I would like to have both charged credited to my account immediately. When I tried calling to complain I was placed on hold and never had anyone answer. I have repeated this process several times. I will call my bank to dispute charges. Please have this company removed from business.
They some how got a hold of my credit card number & began stealing money from me with out my permission! I called the number to find out how this happened and said that i got a letter in the mail, even though no such letter has come! When speaking to them, they were rude to me! Speaking with an attitude when I simply asked "What does the company provide?". Not knowing anything about them or how the heck they got my card number! They rudely agreed to refund my money (within 2-3 business days. & canceled my so called "account". I seriously recommend this company fix their problems or they will have law suits coming!
I began to have have charges showing up on my account for a company called Budget Savers for the amount of $24.95 Then from others called Savings-to-go ($14.95), Travel Members ($19.95), and Privacy Members($29.95). And come to find out there all the same company!
I don't know how they got my account # but all they could tell me was they got a voice authurization over the phone. Bull! They charged my account for 3 months and got me for $270.00. Oh but when i called to complain, they were nice enough to credit one month of each. Wow that like getting F@#k in the A$$ with no lube. had to change my account # after that! Don't let the get you. demand you refund and make sure they cancel. Follow up and follow up some more.
Supposeably i ordered something from someone and got a call from a woman saying that i was going to get a voucher from budget savers for a free gas card, and $1, 000 dollars in coupons for groceries and a gift card for WalMart for $25 free. She promise all this stuff and said isnt that great, before i knew it, she sent me to another woman who said i was enrolled in such and such.well i never got the gas cards or the coupons or anything at all for that matter i was also gonna get free credit checks and never got them and after all of this they charged my credit card 30 bucks and i am livid over this whole thing and really want to see these people stopped so that they dont do this to anymore people...
We bought sunglasses from budget savers they kept calling to sell us more stuff we said no. A total of 49. 90 was taken out of our account without authorization. Thank goodness we saw it on bank statement. We called them and raised hell, they put hte money back on account. Check your bank statements often. Those people are nothing but a bunch of theives!
I have been noticing a $24.95 debit transaction coming out of my account since April 2017. So I called the customer service number and they proceeded to tell me I had purchased a membership in April. But they cannot give me any other info as to what website I did it on. I also asked them if they could get my personal information like account number and credit card without my permission, and EVAN ( the rep) that I spoke with told me YES! Unbelievable! He basically admited that they can steal info without our permission to do so.. I am waiting on my letter to send back to them to get my refund. I highly doubt that will happen, but I have my attorney waiting as well! : )
I was told I would recieve $100 in gas vouchers and never got them and the website doesn't even have a tab for the gas vouchers. Also, on top of that I got the paperwork 2 weeks to late and the voucher are expired! So, now that I've called up the company and complained they will supposedly send me some more vouchers. We shall see. I am making it known that I cancelled my membership on 1/12/2017. Also, after I talked with them I had a hit on my checking account for $30 that was not authorized and so I filed fraud against that company. I found it odd that it happened right after talking with this "Budget Savers" program. To any of those out there do not talk with these people! EVER!
I purchased a Yoshi blade knife online and they signed me up for this "service". I immediatly canceled it after receiving the knife. Knife is okay but budget savers scam took 24.99 out of my account!
they called and i was a little interested, because i had it before and got my money, so this time i was only to pay a small fee, and had to cancel within a certain amount of days, so after four days i decided t cancel, i got the materials aboutthree weeks later, which is today, the letter says 100in cashback gas rebates so, and checked the website and nothing kept getting this,
Ok are all of you people stupid? When you call customer care yelling and cussing at these people who are supposed to help you. Do you not think that they have all your info. What if they live near you and you don't know it? And they knock on your door and punch you right in your face cause you called him/her a ###ing ### hole, ect... It's not there fault you don't check your mail or bank statements idiot. Don't call and say someone is stealing your card 3 years later and cuss out the rep. So the last thing is just remember the next time you call and chew there ###, the rep is human and is there to help you. If your are mean don't expect to get any help.
DID NOT RECEIVE GIFT CARDS/VOUCHER
I was promised Gas Vouchers and Gift Cards for signing up... Never received this and was billed by Budget Saver, Privacy Member Service and Travel Member for over $75 the next month when it was not cancelled. I called Budget Saver at [protected] an pressed #2 to speak with someone. I requested a refund and explained I had never received anything they had promised along with the other Privacy Member [protected] and Travel Member [protected] they all explained that my membership will be canceled and money put back in my account within 3-5 business days. I will keep you posted on it this really happens. DO NOT LET THEM TAKE MONEY FROM YOU TAKE THE TIME TO CALL AND CANCEL, ALSO GET AGENT #, AND DATE/TIME YOU CALLED FOR YOUR RECORDS!

trying to get cash-back rebates
withdraw subscrition
Budget savers has been deducting $24.95 for the last 3 months from my husbands account. We dont know what we are being billed for. Upon quiry to the bank we were informed of the deductions today. We would like to contact the company to cease all the deductions but they dont have any phone number to contact them with.
Can someone help us contact them. The deductions are too costly for us especially not receiving anything for our money.
I think this is a scam.

That # ^^ is customer service..just give your name and address and tell them you dont know how they got your personal information but that you want it canceled immediately and you want a full refund..I did and they sent me a letter sayin I wasn't eligible for a refund and if I disagreed with what they were saying to sign the paper and send it to (i'm guessing the customer service center) so I did..I later received another letter from them saying I wasn't eligible because an "authorized person" gave them permission..i underlined it and wrote this is incorrect on it and filled out a the chart stating the exact month and day that they withdrew from my account and how much each transaction was ( they withdrew SEVEN times from mine)...I totaled it up and sent it back in and as of 2 days ago they refunded every cent back into my account..I now have a new bank card so they no longer have my information.. Hope this helps!
Where did you go to Cancel? I cant find it.
if you still need their phone number, here it is..[protected]..good luck to you..they scammed me also
Your bank should be able to file a dispute and then they will have to issue you another bank card...since this place doen't have a number, that seems like the only way you can stop your account from getting charged. That is what I had to do today. It ways inconvienant, but necessary. They canceled my od bank card and are sending me a new one.
acess to my credit card account /how? didn't give them it!
rescived call stating I am being offered $40 gas card free, 30 day membership to budget savers magizines w/coupons told them I'm not giving account info to them.They said thats fine, just cost $1 to send out.I asked how you going to get that dollar, they said thru my credit card.asked how they have my card number, they said they just have last 4 digits to it, budget savers has the access to use the card. I want this co. shut down, how dare they have access to my account info. Pay Pal is the only one that does have acess to it.How do I take care of this ?
The best way to fix this i think would be to send a certified letter and an email stating that you want to cancel memebership with this company and other associated companies. Then there is the fact that they are still withdrawing money from your account so figured out which card they are gaining access through and get that card hot carded and replaced. If unsure of the card just replace all cards or get new account with the bank.
i want my money back.. i never agreed to 40$ a month and i never recieved ANYTHINGGG..
call them and tell them to STOP TAKING MONEY OUT

I only had my letter from, budget savers for only two weeks and I notice that they had hit my bank account for
i only had my papers from budget savers for two weeks and i noticed that they had hit my bank account for $24. 95. i was surpose to have a 30 day trial period. Also i was surpose to get $40. in free gas.
something really need to be done with these scam companies that are trying to get people out of there money. they make these promises to make things sound good and then they turn out to be a scam.

Do not use budget savers! They continued to charge my AMEX after I cancelled the service. Amex had to block them tokeep them from charging my account.
