As soon as I received my credit card bill I noted they had charged me $39.99. I did not authorize them to charge my account. I have not visited their website for the last nine months. I sent them an e-mail demanding they refund my money. The charge was dated July 2, I contacted them on August 2nd. They replied the following.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting Electronic Arts.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of our service, we do not offer refunds for the subscription fees for any of our online games. In the event of a cancellation, Electronic Arts will not be able to provide any type of pro-rated refund or extension of unused access time. In order to avoid any charges, customers will need to cancel the billing of their account before the subscription fee has been deducted.

If there is anything else I can help you with please let me know.

Thank you,

Addy

NOW HOW WOULD I HAVE KNOWN THAT THEY WERE GOING TO CHARGE ME, SINCE I HAVE NOT VISITED THEIR WEBSITE IN NINE MONTHS??? THEY ARE THIEVES. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE. THEY DO NOT HAVE A PHONE NUMBER LISTED ANYWHERE TO CONTACT THEM, EITHER ON THEIR WEBSITE NOR IN THEIR BILLING ON MY CREDIT CARD. THEY ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED. DISHONEST.

I have been with Pogo as a Club Member now for about two months and I love the way I am treated. I KNEW exactly what I was going to be charged yearly and am fine with it. I have met alot a good friends within the Club Family that I would not have been able to have met playing only the free online games. Also, I don't have to have ads always popping up during my games.

All one has to do is read everything they sign before ever giving out any type card/bank information. Any time you enter a card number on the computer you are putting your funds at risk. It's a lesson learned. Just be glad they are not doing it monthly. Be sure to cancell before the year is up or your card will be billed again.

I agree that pogo is dishonest. i was harrassed by a player playing Texas hold 'em and when i said something back i was banned. that was very one sided.

I want to know how long i will be suspended. And it is not right that the person who got me suspended is still around. and he started it and said the same. they must play favorites. But you can be sure after my subscription is up I WILLNOT be renewing.

my daughter signed me up for a free week pass 1 year ago. And she does not play . but yet her bank card has been charged for the last year and i agree theres no way to get in touch with this company if this was any of us we would be charged with theft by deception or fraud my daughter has to cancel her card just so they cant charge on the account who's going to stand up for us. dona from pa
