my girlfriend has just recieved her credit card statement to find there was an unknown charge of £10 pounds from a company called shopperdisc.co.uk and not for the lack of trying can we find out what for we are now worried that there might be more charges and don, t know how to stop it if anyone could help us we would be grateful

i have the same, £10 deducted from my account, apart from not knowing why its there, i now have to pay a charge for being overdrawn

i also have been cond by shopperdisc.co.uk but tomorrow i will be in touch with my visa company to have this stopped now £20 out of pocket dougie474

i also have the same problem, I do not understand why 10 pounds were charged. And I want to claim the refund.

i also have been duped by this company...

My bank gave me the following phone numbers to call, [protected] or [protected]

After ringing them, I was told that they would refund, but only for the past 3 months money ...£30

likw most of us, we only get 6 monthly statements, hence, by the time we receive them, we have already lost out...

Good luck to all those trying for a refund x

you can get a full refund by saying your going to trading standers i.v just done it, got 3 months back in bank over phone and waiting for a form to fill in and sign and return to were am told i will get a full refund i'v had 20 payments @ 10 pounds taken from me . but fingers crossed i get it back ?

I too am experiencing these deductions of 10 Pounds from my account. I can only think it was after booking a seat with National Coach Services.
I have today e-mailed mary@shopperdiscountsand rewards.co.uk
I am optimistic that I will get my money back! I too am sick to death of "those out there" scamming, scheeming, stealing, overchargiing for essential services and food. I agree that it is about time the people of the country rose up with their full strength and were heard. But, of course they wont. Brits never 'RISE UP' they have had it too cushy for too long but maybe the worm will turn soon and they will refuse to shop where they get ripped off (Sainsbury's I hear have a 400 per cent markup?)
I dont believe any company trading in food should be on the stock market. they have to charge huge profits to keep their stock holders happy which makes the customers unhappy. Could go on for hours on this topic!
Take heart, be heard..

This is happening to me too! God knows how much they have been taking from everyone! I have to go back through all my statements now to find out how long they have been deducting £10 a month from my account...Not a happy lady at all!

I received a promt reply from my letter to Mary and a full explanation of how it came about that they were taking money off my account each month and a promise of a refund. Hopefully it will materialise and all will be well. I fully understood how and why the money has been taken off but suggested they claify their site to avoid these misunderstandings. Good luck to all.

i too have just submitted a complaint on a separate post. Fuming! I have emailed Mary but received no reply as of yet. I hope that this issue will be resolved.

Ok I have received my credit of 4 months (the correct amount) into my bank account. I must say Mary has done her job well and I thank her sincerely.

Thought i should update- Mary has today contacted me too & arranged for a full refund. I have to say considering how angry I was I am impressed with this service. Thankyou.

i have also just found this on my statement and have no idea how it got there. does anybody know what it is likely to be caused by i will asking for a refund as this goes all the way back to may

How ridiculously British you are! Shopperdisk IS A SCAM. they take your money without you agreeing to it. But now you managed to have it back you're all ready to profusely thank this "Mary" and praise her work. You've been duped! She MUST return the money she's not doing you a favour! Her company conned you and they have the legal duty to return what they stole. You had money taken from your accounts, had to go to the trouble of ringing, emailing, writing, you have nobody to be thankful to! Wake up! These people need to be locked up not praised!

they stoled me 50 pounds already, i have no idae how can i stop this ###!

I see I'm in a long line of complainers...I am travelling in India and have spent more on phone calls than they have actually deducted from me over the last 5 months. I am at a loss as to what to do next. My bank is of no use whatsoever and I have just been in a queue to dispute these charges but my credit ran out before I could conclude a converstion...

I have just checked my online banking and found a £10 debit to shopperdisc.co.uk whcih shows as a debit card transaction, when i tracked back all my transactions this has been going on since November 2009 a month after i purchased tickets from ticketmaster. i did not complete any pop up boxes to request or take advantage of special offers or other discounts and have never benefited from anything nor received any literature to say iv signed up and this is how i take advantage, no membership numbers or anything! I have contacted my bank this evening who advised i have to contact shopperdisc direct in the morning and then call my banks disputes team afterwards. this is an disgrace, i dont keep a close track on my banking transactions as i know off the top of my head what DD's i have going out and to who so i dont need to keep a close eye on it as it never changes.

I, too have had £10 taken out of my bank account by shopperdisc.co.uk on at least 6 times and I have no record of any purchase from them--I am going to do a trackback as I have been so ill and can no longer work -so I am able to make time to run this scam to earth.
I am contacting my bank and trading standards as someone is profiting from a ficticious purchase

I have been charged 10 pounds for last three months (december january febuary). a website named webloyalty offerd me 10 pounds discount on my next buy and apparently this shoppersdisc or shoppersdiscount started deducting the amount.I would appreciate if i could be helped on getting my money back thanks b slocombe

I have been informed by Sock Shop that I am to recieve all the money that your company withdrew from my bank account.--I shall await your reply -Iam also awaiting the actual amount that has been withdrawn from my bank without my knowledge. Thankyou S.A.Morgan

I too noticed an unfamiliar transaction of 10 poundsWhen I called the fraud team they said I need to look at previous months to see how far this goes back to...I noticed in Nov 2011, 10 pounds were taken out by shoppers discount and then from Dec on wards to Feb 2012 another company was taking 10 pounds, complete save! These companies are having a whale of a time taking people's money...

Thank you for your refund of 30 pounds over my complain of unauthorized Monthly withdrawal of the amount of £10 from my bank account .
This is certainly a good start but it is not enough .
As a matter of fact I having just discovered the issue I wish to let you know that I am quite irritated from that as I do not have record or prove that I have given my authorization to join jour club or signed any contract for it, nor I have evidence of any benefit or advantage from yours monthly withdrawal .
I am therefore to claim a full refund for all the unauthorized withdrawal since October 2010, on the contrary I will pursue my claim with the Fraud Office and the office of Trading Standard .

Hi Guys I have just discovered that I have been ripped of 200 pounds month by month from this parasites, I have contacted the FRAUD TEAM and they have referred me to the TRADING STANDARD and CITEZEN ADVISE, and you know what they told me ?... that the refund is matter of good will of that stupid company that ripped me off, and that the issue It’s been possible because I have ticked of or not on something that I should have not .
Now first I don’t know anybody that give away their money for a good will (if they refund me of 3 months is because they have ripped me of for some 22 months, secondly how could a fraud team or trading Standard call themselves this way if they answer so stupidly and avoid action on this things ?
So as we are quite a few let’s joint forces and make pressure also on the media and expose this cunning, stupidity, cowardice, fakery and outright ### .

I am now in receipt of-all the unauthorized withdrawals from my bank account with the help of Sock Shop- Thank-you- I had purchased goods from them and I had no knowledge of www.shoppers disc.co.uk had attached their lecherous and dirty scam onto my bank account details . It is disgraceful and more money should be returned to me in the way of damages and unnecessary stress and horrific anxiety and putting my account into unauthorised borrowing (for which I had £50 to repay) not only did they rob me but they dishonestly interfered with my bank account.It is a disgraceful invasion & when a customer trusts a company as reputable as Sock Shop --and allows them to have access to personal information --surely it is common decency to be aware that their loyalties are to the customer and not being duped into allowing their name to be linked with such a dishonest practice ( CUSTOMER PROTECTION). I do hope other people read this and get the confidence to demand their money back--personally I will always be aware of similar scams in the future and this is a lesson well learned --but itshouldn'tt be so --I am an HONEST person and I expect to be treated as such and with respect.

I've been charged £10 a month after booking a Premier Inn hotel room. I was offered a discount on my next booking and it WASN'T made clear I was committing to a £10 monthly payment to Shopperdisc. Very angry. Have spoken to Shopperdisc on [protected] who will refund the last 3 monthly payments and have emailed me a claim form to recover the rest. Was told it was clear on the website I was committing to £10 monthly payments which I strongly disagree with. I am not an internet novice and have shopped online for years. THIS IS A SCAM! Be very careful everyone.

I've been reviewing my account and have noticed this £10 payment. I presume this was disguised as a free voucher but now I can't work out which website got me into this. If I can find that out I'll complain and stop using them.
I've asked my bank if it's possible to disable recurring payments altogether as they are difficult to cancel and audit. I much prefer direct debits.

Hi Guys,
I've just noticed the same, and I called up the company, btw, their website is http://shopperdisc.co.uk/ and the number you need to call is [protected]. What they explained to me is that I unknowingly signed up on the back of an ebookers transaction, where I opted for a discount off my next purchase, apparently this was a free trial for a month after which, £10 is deducted from my account. In my case, its been going on for quite some time, but, on their system, they can also see that you have never used the service, and, if this is the case, you should be entitled to a full refund! I will keep you posted on what happens with my refund and if it actually comes through. On the phone, the lady I spoke to said that the last 3 payments were refunded immediately, and that I would have to fill out a form for any other refunds. I'm still awaiting this form.

I notice in August that a £10 was coming out of my account, as I had just come back from holiday from Europe, I left as it was, then it carried on, I try to find out what company is shopperdisc and find out that I haven't bought nothing from them. Now I trying to stop them charging me £10 every month!

i have just found out that theyve been taking £10 a month from me since june 2010...i only noticed as ive changed banks and no longer have funds in this account and was charged by my bank. my bank has cancelled the payments and i have been in contact with shopperdisc.co.uk. got the same response as everyone seems to have had...they will refund me 3 month but i have to apply for the rest of it. I guess they hope some people wont be bothered to go through it, but I will not stop until I recieve the full £250 they have stolen from my account. I have alerted my solicitor incase they refuse and am in the process of drafting letters for trading standards and watch dog. They need to be stopped :(

watchdog: www.bbc.co.uk/watchdog, office of fair trading: www.oft.gov.uk/ and Citizens advice complaints dept https://www.adviceguide.org.uk/england.htm.. If you read this and are a victim of £10 subscription www.shoppersdiscount.com apply a complaint to one of these websites and insist they get investigated to save others suffering the same fate - I've suggested that they should send an email to every subscriber noting to them that they are being charged £10 a month for the membership as an ethical procedure. After a lengthy discussion with www.shoppersdiscount.co.uk they are only willing to refund me £30 of the £110 I've paid over the year! The kicker is that when I applied for the £15 cash back for booking a second ryan air flight they wouldn't process the claim!

I have just noticed that shopperdisc has took £10 out of my account yesterday I don't even know who they are or why this has happened! Can someone please explain too me how I get this back and what is this company?

I dont know how to take out my money 10 pound from my account, if u know that pls money back to my account

How do you go about stopping this money being taken? as the bank are telling me to get in touch with them?

I like you to stop my membership as of now, and I like you to stop taking money from my account of £8.00 every time. My email is a.flitsch@ntlworld.com my home phone [protected]. Please confirm.

I have had £10.00 taken from my account for thr past 3 months and not sure why. Where has my money gone? What have I got for £30, 00 pounds? Will I get this money back as I am a pensioner

I too have noticed £10 being taken from my account, by the name of shopperdisc.co.uk Switzerland, it's a must that everyone should get their money back, legal action will be taken !

I'm so glad I found this site, since I was beginning to think I had agreed to this subscription and had forgotten about it. I have just received a reply form my email to their customer service stating that I will receive a refund within the next 10 working days. Hopefully it will be for BOTH payments already deducted. A promising and speedy response but how many people have not noticed or bothered to follow up? Seems like very shady business practice.

I too have also been scammed by shopperdiscount.co.uk
It wasnt until i received my bank statement that i was aware of this. £10 has been taken from my bank account without my authorisation, this is FRAUD!
Do you have a contact number so i can get my money back please.
I will also be contacting Trading Standards and reporting this matter!
People like this make me sick they really do.
I will most certainly make it my priority to 'NAME & SHAME' this outrageous scam!
