Hi..friends, even for me the TLG Loans debit £149.99, and i never approved any charges for the them..the only mistake i did is just gave them my card details since i"ve been told it is needed to confirm indentification.This is a fraud, we shouldn"t let them go on!

hi, i just discovered i have been charged £99.99 for thae loan which i didnt want. what do i do?
please, help!

Trouble is most of the people will not complain...

I suggest everyone that reads this contact watchdog

BBC - Watchdog - Got a story

The more that complain the better the chances of a refund.

Also contact as said above your local trading standards.

ve just sent this eamil off to them

Dear sir/madam

I demand a refund in full for the amount of £49.99 that was taken unauthorized out of my bank on Monday 16th February 2009.

I spoke to an adviser on Saturday the 14th, after around 1 hour I re-phoned and cancelled, I was told that my payment would therefore not go though and I owed nothing and nothing would be taken from my account.
Monday £49.99 was taken from my account, this is fraud, I have contacted OFT, trading standards, BBC Watchdog, my bank and the police.

I am not prepared to wait the ridicules' amount of time of 3-6 months while my money you stole from me and others gains interest. You took less than 2 days to withdraw my funds, so it will be just as easy to re-credit my account in that time.

I will not let this drop and demand a refund immediately, if no refund is forthcoming by close of today, I will instruct my lawyer to take this matter further.

There is a massive amount of complaints on the internet about this group, this is not a one off but seems to be a trend, please be advised that I will ensure that this matter will not be laid to rest until a full refund is given.

If my card gets debited again I will personally hold you responsible and take actions though the courts.

A copy of this email will be sent to all I listed in my first paragraph.

I have also attached a copy of the bank statement that shows the fraud payment.

Please deal with this as a matter of urgency or further action will be taken at close of today.

hi i also have been charged 99.99 for somthink from tlg loans and i was not told it would be this much. this is not on now it has made me overdrawn with my bank and i have to pay a extra 28.00 becuase of this. i just rang them and said i was never told i would be charged this much they told me they couldnt do any think at the min because my paperwork as all ready been sent out and i should wait for them to arrive. when they finnaly do arrive just send them back and wait for a phone call and then arrange about a refund. i cant believe what b*llocks this company is doing! if any one has any more idea's on what to do please email me at shibby2005@hotmail.co.uk cliff

I have also been charged £49.99 from TLG when i called my credit card which the payment was taken from i was told that because there were no funds available at the time there were a payment to Carter and Carter finance been denied twice, 1 for £49.99 and the other £99.99, i am more than annoyed with this and i have been sat on hold for other half an hour while i have been reading and now writing this, please can some forward me all the information they have used towards watchdog and police servies, and i will certainly be following this up

Upon checking my account today i discovered that a payment had been taken for £99.99 which i never authorised. I have been to the bank and lodged a fraud investigation form against these TLG people. I have also been to the police with copies of all the relivant documentation. It is a disgrace that they can get away with doing this to inicent people like ourselves. Only discovered this complaints site when i called my bank upon discovering a difference in my balance of account, to be told it was paid out to TLG loans. So i then decided to investigate these people online. Cannot believe the ammount of poeple that have been taken for a ride by this company. IT SHOULD BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY! Unless this fee is returned to me i will be taking further action with legal proceedings and press and reports to watchdog on BBC.

hi Hi, I Charged 149.99, 49.99and 59.99three times from TLG Loans and they told your loan has been approved and within next 10 days you'll get your loan but intill now I did not receive any update.This company is a fruad company and is cheating . Please any one has this company's number please kindly tell me .i have ask them to pay back my money today as i have reported them to the TS and the bank and police for thieft and the next step will be watch dog if money is not returned today .

i have been taken for a mug by this company to saying that the loan i applied for is approved they need bank details for verification purposes.i actually asked the chap on the phone if they needed my bank details for a brokerage fee and he said no it was for idenification.i was doing my internet banking while on the phone to them and it came out the minute they took my details £99.99.
i will be sending off a complaint to the company and trading standards.the bank cant help as i gave them the details, wether it was under false pretences or not
I URGE EVERY ONE ON HERE TO CONTACT BBC WATCH DOG, i have, the more of us that complain about it hopefully the more chance of it getting to the bottom of it for us all.

We have been trying these people for the last week, they also took £99.00 without our permission, we have been trying to phone these people but all we get is the answer machine asking us to wait you hold on for about twenty mins then get cut off. It is disgusting that these people Tom and Ben who we spoke to can actually take this money they told us it would be between £5 and £100 if we were accepted but they still manage to take the money we still have not heard a dickie bird from them.

I also have had money STOLEN from my account. After stupidly giving my card details "purely for ID purposes" I was told, £99.99 was taken from my account without my authorisation. How many people are they doing this to every day. Has anybody had success getting the money back from them. My bank will start a dispute about this transaction as no PIN was entered at the time. How likely is it that I will get the money back. Something needs to be done about theses vultures

I have been in touch with Watchdog. Please, please, please everyone else do the same. These people have to be stopped. The police are next on my list as are Trading Standards and the Financial Ombudsman

I am so shocked to see how many complaints have been made about this scam within days... I found that £49.99 had been debited from my account yesterday by TGL loans. I never authorized this transaction.

I know that contacting my bank and the police will probably be a lost cause so I'll be on to Watchdog too. They have stolen money from all of us within a few days. God knows how many other people they have stolen from and how long it will go on 4. Things like this really sicken me. How can they steel from innocent people. I sincerely hope that they pay for what they have done in one way or another.

I now have contacted Watchdog through their website
Financial Ombudsman [protected]
Trading Standards [protected] although you can find a local number on your council's website.
Commisions Office [protected] can also be phoned as TLG are in breach of the Data Protection Act

Can anybody interested go to The Consumer Action Group. There is a user on that site called "pc999" who is looking for people to join a campaign to bring these people down

we have been conned also by the same way as u all have... bank wont help us or police despite all this... but i want to know how they have a bank account in a false name false address as the phone number the bank has for the account is an estate agents... if any one has their account and sort code we can have their bank accounts ceased but if we cant get it then we have no chance of seeing any of this money.
what a con

ring up [protected] and tell them they will state it as paid then tell them u want it refunding as its them thats been paid. if u get your money back then let me know on juniorjasmine@ntlworld.com as im taking it futher if we dont get it all back and the more the better

My bank seem pretty confident of getting this money back to me within 5-7 days. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Has anybody else gone to their bank to see if they can help.
These people NEED STOPPED IMMEDIATELY

Thanks for that number Laura! Kat, I will be in touch with my bank and will let you know what happens. I sincerely hope they are as helpful as yours. The way I see it is that if we don't get our money back these people are going down. They won't get away with this!

Again another victim of those fraudsters.

After contacting them i have been charged 149 .99 ! ! ! from my account.
It is all gone.

I just called them and as other said earlier, the money will be back to me within 3. 6 months. I can not believe in this ! ! !

The Ceo's name is Steven Rowland ( if it is his real name) ! ! !
I can not believe that this is happening and they operate legally ! ! !

SOMEONE NEEDS TO STOP THIS ORGANIZED CRIME GROUP.

I am going to report them to the Police and Watch DOG.
etc.

Coz this is F... ridiculous ! !
