This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I received a charge on my card from TLG company which I never authozie, they said I was signed up when I purchased airline tickets from Allegiant, I authorize Allegiant to charge my card to pay for my airfare not to subscribe me to other companies I dont know. I called this company and they didnt want to return my money is only $16.99 but if this is charge on a monthly basis during a year it could add up to a lot of money for something I dont use or know about. Now I have to call my bank to report this charges and which I never authorize it's just a waste of my time of being back and forther. I have never called this company until today because of the charges they made on my account...also never received any paper on the mail or e-mail saying i was enroll in this...

I want to prevent other people of going thru what i'm going right now, now i dont even feel online purchases with direct companies are secure since i dont even know if my information has been provided to other pple i dont even know about.

9 unauthorized charges of $11. 99 each was taken from my debit card over a period of 9 months, starting back in july 08. Want money back asap! Never been to their site never signed up for their site or rewards or anything else they have to offer. I live paycheck to paycheck and they are making it hard to pay bills on a low budget.

I noticed on my card that TLG great Fun has been charging my account $ 12.99 a month and I have know idea what this is! I never authorized this company TLG Great Fun to bill me. I have now looked through my statements on the credit card bills and see that they have been using/charging me since we got this credit card. WHat can I do?

These people debit my bank account card twice for $14.99.

This happen after I purchase gas at Gates Service Station on 103rd Street in Jacksonville, Florida.

I told the Fraud Department at Bank of America; the possibility of this being a starting point for theses crooks.

They should be hung by their toes.

I am demanding immediate credit from Great Fun for the unauthorized charges to my credit card account for what they state is "membership". I never sought membership in any business, organization, church or any other entity. I do not know anything about Great Fun.

I would be reporting this matter for investigation and prosecution to the FTC.

My mother is 90 yrs. old, and living with my wife & I. This evening I checked her bank account and saw a withdrawal of $159.99 made to TLG Great Fun.
My mother never signed up for or bought anything.
She has numerous medical problems & is living on a fixed income from month to month. I'm afraid to tell her, for she might go into cardiac arrest.
Beware of this scam.

I have been raped by this company for the last 12 months by an unauthorized charge of $11.99 monthly. I do not know what this is, nor do I want to. I want my money back. Who are these people that they can come into my bank account and withdraw funds I HAVE NOT authorized. This is frightening. If they can do it, what prevents others from the same. THIS HAS to stop. Somebody has to stop TLG GREAT FUN, and end this fraud now.

This company, TGL Great Fun (whom I have never heard of until today) charged my Debit card $12.99. How can they do this to people. They continue to make charges to peoples accounts that ARE NOT Athurized. How is it fair that I should sit here and just except these charges when I did not approve them in the first place. I will not just sit here and be ok!

So I see I am not the only victim of these fraudulent charges. This company charged my debit card $12.99 description was TLG Great Fun. First I want to know how they got my card number. I dont sign up for anything with my card.
Now I have to cancel my bank card and get a new one. These people need to be stopped! I cannot leave my job to take care of matters that should never happen!

I check my account daily, I had two charges of $14.99, the memo indicate TLG Great FUN. I immediately called and spoke to someone by the name of Jerry, he told me that I had signed up for coupons and rebates. Told him that I would never do that, he tried to convice me to keep the offer. They have no problem taking the money out of my account, and they take their sweet time to credit my account.

I have been charged $11.99 for at least 8 months and never realized what it is. I called the company three times. They just disconnected when they heard what I said.
Someone should stop them.

I was charged 3 times the amount of $12.99. I call and I get this girl, can't remember her name. Only that she spoke broken English. I keep telling her I didn't want this Great Fun bull, But she wouldn't listen to me. I told her several times I wanted to cancel and get a refund. Not only could she not speak English, she couldn't understand it either. Hopefully I'll get my money back.

I was charged 15.99 from a company I have never any business with. I called, but answer on the weekends. If there is a fine print scam endorsed by discount websites, they should be held accountable as well. With the economic problems of today, this is unethical and immoral of these companies to do to main street American people. A law suit should be started for this unbelieveable scam. it should be considered FRAUD!

Seems to be a scam when booking airline tickets thru Hot Wire?! That's just a guess. They have been charging my credit card $12.99 for several months. Probably a checked box that was overlooked. I called and cancelled and am now awaiting paperwork to get reimbursed for past payments. This is no fun at all. Shame on them for being so sneaky!

Tlg great fun comes with priceline. They are experts on doing fradulent charges, its just a pop-up. I recently had $11.99 charged to my visa, I called my bank right away and told them it was a fradulent charge. They took right off. All you have to do it report the company and tell them is fradulent. They do this to anyone that buys anything off of priceline.

Just checked my bank statement, and, lo and behold, there it was a charge of $12.99. I guess that even though an account has been cancelled it must mean that you don't get anything, but they get their money. I hope that the bank can do something, like not honoring another charge from them. One rip-off or scam like this affects the whole internet world of on line shopping.

This company is a scam! They have been charging my credit card 11.99 every month for at least 6-8 months now. We have never subscribed to any of their service and they have never provide us any service. I have seen a lot of people having the same problem and I think it is enough complaints to remove their business, so they won't rob other people in future!

This company charged my account illegally. I have never heard of them before. There is also another company that did this but I can't figure out who they are. Very similar, though. TLG comp... That is the only information that my bank could give me. I am disputing the charges.
