grants360 reviews and complaints

The website asked for a payment of 1.95 for a kit on grants but when i checked my account they took out 58.61 and another 2.96 both of which arent authorized at all.

Promises to help find government grants. Pretty much takes me in circles and gives no information. Also, they have charged my checking account $57.61 with no notification. Someone is making a great deal of money on this SCAM!

I was mislead on this scam operation times are to hard i am on employment and can not afrord to be scammed my name is Brenda W my cancelation no. is 2712254 Iwant my refund asp back into my account

SAID THIS WOULD BE FREE FOR ONLY $1.98. CHARGED $57.61.

I CALLED TODAY AND THEY SAID I WILL GET A REFUND. I WILL BELIEVE THAT WHEN IT HAPPENS!

DON'T DO THIS!

I was told that I was only going to be charged $1.95, not $38.21 for the Text Guide, and $57.61 for the Membership (totaling $95.82). I would appreciate if grants360 would credit the $95.82 back into my account right away. I don't have money to give away to anybody(this includes grants360). Reference No. 2206563

Unfortunately I read the reviews after I signed up and immediately got ripped off for $49.00. Do not use this site.!

I, too, was taken by this so called company. They took the $1.95 and then an addition $57.61, when I called in an effort to get my money back they sent a refund request form, I filled it out and now they have offered me $41.61 as a refund $16 for a day, a little high I think, also when I called them I asked where they were, I knew it wasn't USA from the speech of the girl on the phone but she said they were in Madera, California. I went to www.grants360.com/external/support, following is our conversation

Pep:
Thank you for waiting...
Pep:
I have now your record.
Pep:
It shows that your subscription has been cancelled. You will no longer be billed after the cancellation.

I know that, but since I cancelled this subscription with 2 days times the additional $57.61 taken from me should be refunded.
Pep:
With regards to your refund, please response to the email from the refund department insisting for full refund.
:
I got the email and it appears they have me over a barrel and will only give me back $41.61, this simply isn't right, they are keeping $16 for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
Did you hang up?
Pep:
Please response to that email insisting for full refund.
I have taken out my name that is the reason for the gaps in the transcript.
VCH

They are charging me $58.07 in sept.2009, october, november and in Dec.they charged me twice that amount.I never suscribed to anything .I don't know how they got my info.They don't even have a website. They are thiefs.I want them to be stopped and arrested!

you should learn to work instead of living off someone else

they have offered to refund half my money I told them no and I expect to see all of it refunded..
I will be sending a complaint to the BBB and if I can find the fraud unit of the FBI I will be sending thier info to them also..I get really mad when people are ripping innocent people off.

yes these people are crooks, they've loaded up the small type with caveats and limitations...I got taken by buying a day's glimpse of a list and was automatically given a subscription, debited to my VISA which I failed to cancel within 24 days.

They've now offered me a partial rebate. I accepted but I will never again buy anything on the internet with a credit card.

The web is now full of these crooks who are enabled by the credit card companies and banks..

I now know not to trust what CNN, MSN say is a good deal. That advertisment was probably a scam too. BBB cant touch them because they are out of the country. How can an outsider offer Government Grants In the United States. Unless they are not US Grants What a scam. I wish I could mark scam all over their web site.
Good luck in getting your money back. I won't happen. If anyone know an international complaint department that will help let me know. I will go to battle.

I was supposed to be charged $1.95 for shipping of a CD regarding grants. I was called by my bank and the said there was an extra charge of 56.71 charged to my account plus 6 cents (whatever that was for). I called today and asked them to cancel the order. Why in the world would they add an extra charge and not tell you? I will not ever do that again. This a learning experience. In fact, I won't order anything else online. The company should be put out of business. Is this how the government makes it's money?

This web site offered an offical government grant kit for $1.95. Furthermore, there were charges made to my credit card card that are non refundable. Plus, they never sent me a email. I used the user name & password, the web site does not exsit. I am a single parent w/ a disability and the grant was greatly needed for debts, housing and education.

I was charged outragest price i thought it was a 1.97 then they added anouther 70 dollars i would like my money back they never sent me an e-mail.

it told me it was just $1.95 and that i was going to get an E-mail link it gave me a username an passwork already! The e-mail address i gave was anitraholmes67@cox.net but if there was a problem my other e-mal address is nitra_nitro2006@yahoo.com

After signing up (with my grandmother's debit card) in hopes of a packet of legitimate information that there is free government money out there for students like myself, I came upon this website with dozens of complaints. Terrified, I called IMMEDIATELY & canceled my membership. I have ONLY been charged the $1.95 that I signed up with, but will not be charged the $57 of the first month. If you look in the TERMS page, if you call within 1 day, you will not be responsible for the first month's payment.

CANCEL IMMEDIATELY! [protected],
or they WILL BILL YOU!

I also recorded the telephone conversation with the representative I spoke to, who assured me I would not be charged anymore than $1.95, in case there were any added fees or inconsistencies :).

I was told I would be charged 1.95 and a few days later I was charged 57.61 without my permission. The user id or password did not work. I would like a refund and you need to stop taking money from hard working people trying to better themselves and the lives of their family.

And when looking at the link you see above there is an area of small print which descrides the charges ..This was not there when I signed up for the 1.97 grant information.. I know what is to good to be true usually is. If they are going to charge me 57.00 for information then the information should at least be good right..I think so. Then to charge me another 37 .00 for information about taxes which i never even asked for in just fraud plain and simple.
