My mom bought my boys some clothes from Peebles last fall. They were offering complimentary magazines with each purchase. COMPLIMENTARY. All you had to do was sign up online.
She didn't sign up.
My mom gets her bank statement the other day, 9 months later, showing that Time Warner Inc had just charged her card for 3 magazine subscriptions she never authorized. Almost 100$. Peebles went ahead and subscribed to 3 different magazines for her, without her knowledge.
How can it be okay for Peebles to share your debit card information like that?!
Surely it can't be legal, right?!?

Did some searching online, and they've done this A LOT.
Scam scam scam.

In order to receive a discount on merchandise, I had to agree to accept an offer for three magazine subscriptions. And I had to cancel by a certain date. I called and canceled, but they just keep coming, and they just keep billing my bank card! I can't get this to stop, short of canceling my card!
