Home Business Success
Complaint 14700 Details

On July 22,2011 I received a text message from the number of 618-434-0294 to call 877-323-4717 to get a $100.00 Target gift card and $50.00 Rush card.

I did call that 877 number and the lady I talked to said the cards were for doing an online survey. I could only get the cards if I did 2 trial offers from Magazine Savings Club and the Home Business Success.

The lady had a bucket mouth a I had to tell her to slow down and to identify her company. She said it was Insider Shopping.I had to pay $1.95 for shipping and handling for the gift cards.I believe both trial offers had 14 days to cancel.

After one week I asked the status of my cards. Insider Shopping said they had no record of my order.They said call back tomorrow night July 29,2011.

After the second week still no record of my order. They gave me the number of 888-623-4982.This was the Magazine Savings Club phone number. The guy promised to put a hold on the order as the 14 day trials were almost up.

On August 8,2011 I was billed $139.00 by the Home Business Success.No letter,no CD,nothing from the Home Business Success. No chance at canceling the trial offer.

The week of August 15,2011 I received the bank statement with the unauthorized charge of $139.00 from the Home Business Success with a phone number of 855-289-7779. I have tried that phone number,but the call will not go through.

I also received a letter from the Magazine Savings Club dated August 12,2011 with a voucher for the Target gift card. Not a gift card. A voucher where it would take 10 trips to Target to fully redeem the $100.00. Nothing about a $50.00 Rush card either.

I started to hunt around on the internet and I came across this site. I hope you can help me get the money back. I have not gone to the bank to dispute this fraudulent charge as I wanted to get all the facts together first.

Insider Shopping needs to screen their clients and Magazine savings Club needs to be honest about their cards.If I had known that the cards were only vouchers,not gift cards I would have never agreed to any of this.The nearest Target store is 100 miles away.They could be in cahoots with each other.

I canceled the free trial from Magazine savings Club as they said it would take 12 weeks to start receiving magazines and on September 20.2011 I would be billed $39.90 per month for 5 subscriptions they chose for me.

Magazine Savings Club's address is 100 Oxmore Rd. Suite 110
