Reviews and Complaints

I apparently was looking at their website and decided I did not want to participate and logged off. How they got my credit card I don't know. I want the charge of $19.95 credited to my credit card. This is credit card fraud.

I am SO very angry to find out from my banking institute that this website has been stealing money straight out of my bank account for over a year now. I never gave them the authorization to take any money out of my account! This is such an outrage!

charged 29.95 twice without permission plus 35.00 bank fee. will contact better business bureau if money is not returned.

Have a charge of $19.95 on my charge card that I had no idea what it was for. Called the number and they said Deal Max.
They said that they canceled it but did not give me the money back.

i did not sign up for this and my bank account was debited causing an ovrdraft. Please refund my money and remove me from your list. DealMax ID number:[protected]. Your Savings Club no:[protected]

i got my bank statement this co dealmax had took money out of my account i do not know how they was able to i did not give them my card or bank info

I don't know if this is the right place for this compliant, but i would like to know how you took my money without my consent.
Further more why? All I want is my money back. I will go anywhere and everywhere until I have results.

I have an unauthorized charge on my bank account from someone called dealmax. I am going to be calling to get them to give me my money back on 5/12/09.

How these scams work:

Consumers either receive a spam e-mail or come across a web advertisement or web site offering a Walmart or other well known gift card worth a large amount of money.
The consumer is taken to a website that is has branding that makes it appear to be a legitimate merchant (ex: Walmart), there the consumer will be asked to enter an email address, and other personal contact information; including address and phone number. The privacy policy on the site will typically indicate that this information will be sold to other businesses for their own purposes, such as telemarketing and junk mail.
Once this information is entered the consumers may be asked to take part in a series of surveys.
Once the surveys are complete (if they were offered at all), the consumer is given a number of webpages where they have to "participate" in a certain amount of "sponsor offers." The number of offers may vary, but they will end up costing the consumer a great deal of money in fees, subscriptions, and products. In addition, at the end of the process there is no guarantee that the consumer will even receive the branded gift card.

This is a TOTAL Rip OFF
First they used a BOGUS Best Buy Logo
to Intiate best buy card holders to sign up for a Free $1000
Gift card at a $1.00 particapation fee
WALMART IS ALSO USED

Then in very small well hidden fine print tucked deep away in their
privacy policy it states by accepting these terms you will allow SCAM MAX To charge $29.95
monthly from your bank account to become a particapaiting member

I was not even sent a brochure, membership card or any email confirming I had unknowingly accepted
these charges till i inquired 6 months later and had my Bank disputE the charges
on a service I NEVER USED OR KNEW I WAS A MEMBER OF ?

This is nothing but a bunch of very lucrative lawyers who have set up a legal way to fraudently extract money from your bank account without ANY Notification that it was done

NEVER ACCEPT A FREE GIFT CARD FROM ANY INTERNET SITE
YOU'LL PAY FOR IT $$

I was charged the same $19.95 for a membership I did not ask for. It was somethihg that I order that I only had to pay the SH, which was $4.95. Then you get an offer for a choice of 4 different gift cards. That's how they get your card# from the 4.95 you pay. The number was on my bank statement so I called them on 6/3/09 and they said it would be credited in 2-3 business days. I called them again this morning and of course another person tells me the same thing.

Note: It sounds automated, but if you enter you phone number the option 1 to cancel you can then hit # to speak with someone. Hope this helps

Good news. There is a way to solve this mess. It takes time, but it can be done. Issue a complaint with your bank about the charge. The bank will investigate and come back because of this malicious scam operations air tight terms and conditions and say they cannot adjust and close the case. They will send you a letter (KEEP THIS LEETER).

When you receive the letter call your bank and tell them you want to be put on a conference call with your bank and Sarah Moore at Grant Member Services at [protected] or [protected]. The reason that you do this is so the bank has documentation in their system that they will issue you a full refund. Member Services will that want you to send a copy of the banks case closure letter with your client ID Number (Sarah Moore will give this to you) to [protected].

If company fails to adjust within 30 days, then your bank will adjust the charges because they have the documentation of the conference call in their system. It is a little bit of a process, but the way this scam operation works, they have it air tight Terms & Conditions and this is the only way you can win.

Good Luck!

they did the same thing to me and won't respond to my phone calls

Money has been taken out of my account without my authorization and I want it to stop

I did not authorize this withdraw and want it money put back in my account.

i did not make this enquirey

the same thing happend to me . The $29.95 was taken out after i called and
cancelled. witch was three days in to my free 30 day taile. I want it back.

I was charged twice on 10-09-08 for 1.00 to my cc and 29.95 as well when I called and spoke with someone I told them then that I wanted it cancelled and credited back to my cc and then on 10-10-08 I was taken for another 2.00 or 3.00 from my cc and the 29.95 went through on 10-10-08 from my cc. Now once again I want this credited back to my cc ASAP if not credited back I will be filing fraud charges so I should have 33.95 back on my cc soon I hope and I cancelled this on 10-09-08. And on the 10-10-08 they still took it out. So with all do respect pleased credit this back to my cc.

Thank-You

Thank you so much for giving a number to call. I like you have no idea what I'm paying for! I see a charge for 19.95 which caused my account to overdraft. For the last few days I had been trying to figure out who this company was and how to get hold of them. FINALLY I called and found out that not only had they taken out the 19.95, but took out the same amount each month for the last 3 months, (who knows how I missed that!). I told them I wanted my money back, they tried to tell me no, I flipped out. They said their gonna refund the 60.00 they took from me, after I told them that I went online and there was tons of people they did this same thing to. I got a reference number and an account number and ladies name I talked to, but I still don't know what I was being charged for, she wouldn't tell me and I still do not know how they got the info. Funny thing is, I lost my card 2 months ago and had to get a new one, so they not only had my old CC number, but somehow they ended up with my new number as well.! This is very scarey! I guess I'll see if they actually give me my money back. too bad they can't reimburse me for the overdraft charges. I'm gonna talk to my bank about that.

Yeah. I think they should be a bit more accessible if they're gonna be tricking people out of their money. Otherwise, just be an honest business. Thanks for the phone number by the way.

IN CASE U DON'T KNOW, THEIR # IS [protected]

DealMax just hit my account in the last 24 hours. I received a call from my credit union and they had charged to my account. Now I have to go to the branch sign papers and get a new card and pin. I can only think of two things on the web that I inquired about and now they have managed to get to my account. I didn't give the companies any of my card information; however, I did purchase from an online auction last night. Off I go to the credit union and several days without a debit card. What a SCAM!

I too have recently found unauthorized charges on my account and jave not recieved promised gift card from dealmax, nor it's affiliates... I am attempting to resolve these matters, but have yet to speak to a representative. I keep getting "yanked" around by their automated system, which seems to be part of their ploy. My next recourse is to notify the US Federal Trade Commission and my congressman.

I never authorized charges. I expect a FULL REFUND

I am having the same problem. I never authorized Dealmax to set up a monthly transaction fee which they have been taking out for over two years. I never noticed because I thought it was our X-Box monthly fee which I did authorize. Called the bank and going after them to get my money back...over $800!
