good luck

My husband's Bank of America credit card was charged 119.99 last month. He never has used his credit card on line. He doesn't know how to get on the internet. When I called MB Greatfun they told me that we had authorized Bank of America to charge us for a coupon book with "great" discounts. I have contacted Bank of America to ask them to remove the charge we did not make. Of course my husband has already paid the bill in full, and the credit card company replied to my letter with a form letter saying they had received my letter, were investigating it, and would reply within 30 days. After reading the postings here, I have little hope of relief.

I got the same problem. Great fun charged me for 3 months. I called them today and cancel my "membership." (Even though I don't know why I'm part of their member~) I believe it's through the Drugstore website. So please be careful not to clip on the "cash back".
Now, I asked the customer service that I want the money back. The person told me an address that we can write a mail to request the money back. Could somebody please tell me how to write a letter to request the money back?
They seems not want to deal with this.

I have filed a complaint with the Connecticut Attorney General, Great Fun obtained my credit card information when I purchased an item on line. I was contacted by them telling me I had joined and I responded with no way and I was not interested and not to charge my card and send anything to me. They did not send the information but now I noticed they did charge my Credit Card five days ago.

The other individuals who have complaints should file a complaint with the Connecticut Attorney General.

11.99 for the month of April.

I will be going to my bank tomorrow.

I dont even know how these people got my debit card number. Outrageous.

TLG Great Fun has charged me 3x for $11.99 each. I am absolutely livid. I have no idea who this company is or how they even got a hold of my account info. I am extremely irritated..wouldn't it be great to file a class action lawsuit against them for FRAUD!?!?

Phone number reflected on this complaint is NOT the phone number of TLG Great Fun.

Please do not call.

TLG Great Fun-----Report them once you have the charges removed by going to FTC.com and filing a complaint. These guys are so rude and someone I.E. the government needs to stop their practice of billing consumers when a discount is accepted when making an online purchase. What they don't fully disclose is your membership into their club and the monthly billing that will follow.

I just checked my statement today and i saw that 11.99 was taken out of my checking account. I called my bank and they gave me the name tlg great fun. i looked it up on the internet and it brought me to all these complaints that i am seeing now. we need to file a law suit against them they took our information without us knowing it and thats not right.

This frigging company took $ 36.00 out of my checking account, and I never got anything in return.

We too have been victims of this SCAM! In Jan 2006, out teenage daughter wanted to sign up for Columibia Records and Tapes online. My wife allowed her to do so, but after I found out I had them cancel it. I pay ALL the bills and never questioned any charges, I just thought my wife had bought things for herself. I have several times paid off the credit card balance, Visa Card, issued through Bank of America, only to place new charges on the card. This last time May, 2008 I paid the card off again and asked my wife what TLG GREATFN was and why it was on an "OLD" credit card number billed to our "NEW" credit card. She did'nt know. In calling Bank of America I found out very little, but after making several calls, someone mentioned that it was probably due to something we had signed up for at one time. What? They suggested I call TLG GREATFN. I got a long winded spiel from them about services they provide and how this started. My wife swears she never agreed to anything with TLG GREATFN, I know I did'nt, and my daughter did'nt. We've been paying this $10.99 fee for 2 years 5 months! The banks don't make it easy, they are'nt too interested in helping (why would they, they earn money this way). TLG GREATFN plays dumb and puts the blame onto "something you signed up for". I've told TLG GREATFN to cancel and recieved a cancellation number. We'll see. Next we're going to Bank of America/Visa Card with a fraud complaint.

I have another unknown charge for Membership services is what it says for 19.95. I called and they said to go to this site. I need them to reimburse my account now and quit charging me for anything else.

i have forgotten to give you all information about my charged my number charged was 27078983a800will you please get back to me

i was charged 12.99 on my vista card and i want to know what the hell for? they cant take things off peoples cards .

They also took $35.99 out of my bank account... pretty p*ssed off. there is no way of me doin this. I am very careful with my card as well. I wanna know who to call and i want my money back. If any of you have a way of getting the # i would like to have it please.. thanks and hope no one else gets ripped off!

I just realized that I have been charged $11.99 for this TLG/GREAT FUN for no reason, the banker told me If I got fly tickets on line or something similar, and she was right but it was 2 YEARS AGO! I cant believe how these companies work, stealing money like a thieft. I called to my bank -wells fargo- and they told me that the transaction is still pending so I have to wait like 3 or 4 days so until I can get a credit on that complaint but I hate this way of work of this compay -tlg-, And things get a little harder for me because I don't live in the US, I bought those tickets when I went to the US for my vacations in Colorado, and 2 years later I received this awful surprise. I have to wait that's all I can do so far. It sucks

they got me when i bought a airline ticket thru orbit's . called they stopped.

Visit this link, I found an attorney gathering information to file a class action lawsuite against Trilegiant Corporation.

If enough of us get involved we can put these crooks out of business.

I too was victimized by these scammers! 11.99 for 4 months. I Called and found out they are located in Westerville Ohio near Columbus the woman I spoke to would not give me a street address just a PO box. i plan to do some local research because i want to visit them with a can of pepper spray. I have canceled my credit card and will only be refunded for 2 months

Same thing here. Just saw these guys charged my card $11.99 for last 4 months. My charge came from booking a flight on AirTran. I don't recall agreeing to anything but purchasing a ticket! Shame on AirTran! Shame on me for not noticing this charge sooner. I will NEVER use AirTran again. They lost a customer over this unscrupulous practice.

Same charge with me. The company claims that I cashed a $5 check that they sent to an address that I havent lived at in over 6 months and that waranted them to start me in some discount program...I said I've never even heard of this company and never cashed a random $5 check! I'm cancelling this card. I have to wait 2 billing cycles for them to reimburse though!

Like everyone else I'm grateful to see I wasn't the only one who didn't notice! Only I have three other companies based out of CT that have also been charing my account. I'm divorced have four kids and am working 40 hours a week plus going to school for the last 3 years. That's no excuse for not noticing these deductions, but I just really didn't think there were people out there that would do such a thing. Did any of you get refunded any of the money they have stolen? Well onward and upward Right? Ann

I too have been a victim of this scam. I called [protected], spoke with a real person. My charges are beening credited back to my credit card. Who are these people?

Anyone who orders airline tickets needs to be put on alert!

I ordered tickets for my dad to only see these charges of $11.99 pop-up on my bank statements two months in a row. I contacted TLG this past Saturday; and they gave me the run-around stating that their customer services offices are only open Monday - Friday from 8 AM - 11PM. Today, I placed a call to them using all of their contacts numbers and got the same message to call back at another time because all of their lines were busy. Yeah, busy for sure... with people like us trying to dispute these charges.

After an OUTRAGEOUS 47-minute wait with my bank's fraud department (Washington Mutual), I was told I could dispute all the charges and get my money credited back to my account. However, for the sake of saving time I was advised to wait until this most recent pending charge for $11.99 clears so I don't have to repeat the claims process. Still, another bank representative advised that I may be required to cancel my card so GREAT FUN does not try to issue another charge on my card.

My husband and I are vigilant about checking our account, but this one slipped by because he had thought I had bought something for the kids but when this last pending charge hit our account we both knew something was fishy.

My next step is to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office in my state, complete the class action suit forms found online, file a complaint with the BBB, and with Priceline.com, whom the TLG rep said is how they got my card number.

TLG Great Fun is a HUGE SCAM!

Hello my debit card was chagred 35.99 also I have never heard of this company. when I call them they tell me that they can't find my account. My word to the barely engl;ish speaking man was that you will here from my laywer. Then he told me told call back tommorow his manger would be in. If anyone has started a law siut plesae let me know I would like in on it. I am so tried of these people taking money from people like us, that ry to be honest. I am almost afraid to use my card online any more.

i was charged for months $11.99 on my credit card, not knowing what tlg greatfn even was. i called the company and they told when i booked a flight through orbits it signed me up. i don't remember seeing this on the orbitz website. tlg was is supposed to refund my money and stop withdrawling money from my credit card. i will never use orbitz again though

I too have been charged erroneously on my credit card. I filed a dispute with my credit card company and have had no response from them for 60 days. I have called Great Fun twice and of course the agent kept trying to sell me on the product in which case I had to get sh----. I finally got a supervisor who said the money would be rufunded. I called again 3 weeks later with a gaurantee of even more money refunded. I have not seen any activity on my credit card yet for reimbursement. I have tried to call since with a voice message answering and then a disconnect.
Scam

TLG Great Fun is a SCAM! They never answer their phone lines. When they do pick up I ask them about the unauthorized charges on my account and they hang up the phone. I am still trying to reach them.

I HAD PURCHASED MOVIES ONLINE FROM COLUMBIA MOVIE CLUB JUST ABOUT A MONTH AGO. I FOUND OUT THAT MY CREDIT CARD THAT I USED TO PURCHASE THE MOVIES WAS BEING CHARGED $35.99 BY (TLG GREAT FUN CORP) I CALLED TLG AND THEY INFORMED THAT WHEN I SIGNED UP FOR THE COLUMBIA MOVIES THAT I HAD ALSO SIGNED UP FOR THE TLG GREAT FUN 30 DAY FREE TRAIL PACKAGE IN WHICH I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT. UNLESS I CANCELED WITHIN 30 DAYS THE SAME CREDIT CARD THAT I USED TO PURCHASE THE MOVIES WOULD CHARGED A MEMBERSHIP FEE OF $35.99 WHICH AGAIN I NOTHING ABOUT. PLEASE, WHEN ORDERING ANYTHING ONLINE BE EXTRA CAREFUL OF THESE TYPE OF SCAMS AND CHECK YOUR BANKING AND OR CREDIT CARD STATEMENTS OFTEN. IN THE END THE TLG COMPANY SAID THAT THEY WOULD REFUND A PARTIAL PAYMENT OF $25.99 TO MY CREDIT CARD. THEY STILL GOT AWAY WITH $10.00 OF MY MONEY AND THATS REALLY WRONG. JUST THINK IF THEY PULL THIS STUNT WITH SAY A MILLION PEOPLE, LOOK AT THE MONEY THAT THEY MAKE...WHAT A SCAM!

Im only 16 and ive gotten charged on my debit card for this for the past few months here. and ive always wondered why ive been paying more the first of the month to my mom for my cellphone bill. turns out i was charged by these same people for at least 5 or so months now and i shouldnt have to take this. so now ive got an angry mom on my back thinking that this is all my fault. if anyone could convince her that it was a mistake or that it really wasnt PLEASE email me. ive been charged for 11.99 a month usually because of TLG*GREATFUN. And they need to be stopped!

These crooks got me too. They charged my debit Visa card. So I went to my bank and cancelled the debit card and filed a police report for credit fraud. Here is my charge:
03/29/2008 POS WITHDRAWAL 03/28 TLGGREAT FUN 54 800 -$35.99.

I am so tired of these crooks. They charged my debit card (which I no longer use for purchases) not my credit card. I wasn't even going to play with these crooks. I went to my bank, cancelled my card and filed a police report for credit fraud. This was my charge:
03/29/2008 POS WITHDRAWAL 03/28 TLGGREAT FUN 54 800 -$35.99.

Was charged $12.99 on my American Express 3/10/08. Nofified AMEX, to credit my account and cancel the card

OMG! I've just discovered that this BS company has been charging me $10.99 every month for the past year! I've never heard of this TLG thing before! When I called thim today, they mentioned something about Cheaptickets.com and I accepted something though out this Sh. website! Never use Cheaptickets.com
I'm willing to participate in a class action sute... please :-0 I want those people down

Very interesting. A few people mentioned talking to "Patty Nardone" in the "President's Office" of TLG Great Fun. It turns out that the same name is used for another credit card scam with "New Healthy Savings" and "HCS Credit Keeper".

I charged 99.99 in June 2007 and 109.99 in March 2008.

I too was scammed 3 times by this company and I don't have a clue of who this company is or what it is for and the recent charge was today... The dates and charges on my account was 3/3/2008 for $39.95 and again on the same day 3/3/2008 for $ 7.95 and then again today 3/11/2008 for $35.00 and someone needs to take action and sue the hell out of this company for this ###... They are taking advantage of people and their money... and it's not right... Cause I went to use my card for something that I needed and my card was yet again Declined...

Hello not sure if anyone is still reading this, but this guys got me too. The lady on the phone said something about fandago, so if you buy movie tickets online this could be the source. Perhaps we should contact fandago and complain to them.

This is also a scam though www.Fandango.com. I called the company earlier today (TLG-Greatfun) and told the lady i noticed some un-authorized charges to my bank account. She explained that they were through Fandango.com, and confirmed that i have used them in the past for movie ticket, but never authrized the sharing of my credit card number, or the charges to my account. She then told me that they would remove the charges and refund me in 7-10 days. but they would keep my account active. i told her that is not an option, and un-acceptable. she told me they couldn't close my account and hung up. i called back a second time (this time i was a little hot under the collar, but tried to keep my cool, as you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.) i told the lady i had just been hung up on and want my account closed. she then asked for my address for confirmation of my identity (normal) i gave it to them, but guess what... they had my address listed as the address to the company that is ripping me off. I told her that it was funny that the addy they have for my just happens to be to the building that she is most likely sitting in right now. she then put me on hold for 5 minutes and hung up on me (call recorded through my cell phone.) i called back a third time and this time got a much nicer easier to deal with lady name "Andrea" she said they would remove charges and close my account out and refund me in 7-10 business days. i told her i appreciated it, and they gave me a cancellation number and she once again reminded me of her name "Andrea" as soon as i got off the phone with them, i called Fandango, to express my severe displessure with them selling sensitive information like my CC # off to affiliate companies without my express permission (i do not remember EVER agreeing to any stipulations like that.) she explained that i had clicked a link and it was a "electronic signature" i told her that is BS, and that electronic signature excuses normally wouldn't fly in the court of law, and definately don't fly with me. i told her i just wanted to lodge a complaint and inform them that i would never, and advise all my friend never to use their shady services again. and hung up. directly after that call, i called my bank and requested that we get a charge dispute rolling, regardless of their baseless promise to close my account with them (TLG-GREATFUN) the lady needless to say was VERY helpful on this and advised me that the best thing to do in situations where you are uncertain of the company holding to their word is to file a official dispute through the card carrier and to have the card loacked/closed and have them send you a new one. This is VERY inconvienient, but WELL worth it in my opinion. Everyone call your bank, and have them lock your cards down and get a new one, so they CAN'T charge your account again. If there is any information on a possible class action lawsuit please post up here or email me, as i would very much like to play a part in it, i have plenty of good information on the business (I have my ways) and i have all phone calls with said companies recorded and saved on my cell phone.

Cheers and good luck,
Chace Elliott

I saw this charge pending on my account online today and called my bank but have to wait for it to process before I can dispute it. I called the company and, guess what? I'm not in their records! I checked Cheaptickets for a flight once, but never purchased and will be filing a bbb complaint.

I got charged 119.99 from Great Fun and i had no way gave them any information on my card number or any information. I didn't authorize anything let alone know of any services that Great fun did or does. I don't know what i am going to do. This is completely stealing and i plan on sueing if there is nothing going to be done.
