A few weeks ago, I was stupid enough to call in National Magazine Exchange because I had received a letter saying I could get a chance to win some money. I was broke and believed in it without googling about first, idiot. Anyway, they kept telling me that to enter in the sweepstakes that there was no purchase necessary and I was alright with that. That'...

Discount Savings Club They'll insult you after they get your money

All a scam, they are not accredited by the BBB, so don't deal with them. They will insult you if they see you're not interested. Heck! they'll insult you after they get your money! I suggest Lawyer up get a class action lawsuit started, if you can track them down, MN, FL (clear Water) who knows? Do not give them your info. They will save you $0! I repeat $0! in fact it'll cost you. just report their scams and anyone finds their office? make it public..

Savings! You'll save at the best...your key to savings. So you go to the website and start checking for savings within 35 miles, savings online and you get the usual 10% off or "get discount" link takes you to the Office Depot website! What crud. Here's what I kept finding: "Sorry, there are no current available offers for this area." After a half dozen of these messages I realized - SCAM!

I just had to CANCEL my credit card and be issued another for the SAME reason!

I bought a Ron-Co knife set 2 months ago (3 easy payments, I'm happy), THEN they asked if I wanted to sign up with travelentertainmentsavings.com for $5.00, and if I didn't like it, I could cancel anytime, and I did...The SAME day. I was informed that the $5 is non-refundable (fine).
For the next 2 months I had charges on my card for discountsavingsclub.com that I NEVER signed up for. It's like the pulled a bait and switch, so when I cancelled the first, THIS one was on it.

Sorry you had to lose so much $$, but I am glad that they only beat me out of $45.00, and a huge headache and inconvenience.

In closing, I suggest that when ordering a product, don't fall for any 'trial' anything offers. It is umbrella corporation with many companies under it waiting like vultures to STEAL our hard earned money.

They called on my work phone and harrassed me until i was finally able to get them off the phone. I have no idea what was said. A week later, charges start appearing on my checking account every other day from different "savings clubs". I call each one separately but have no idea how many are going to show up or how they got my bank account information.

Discount Savings Club incorrect contact information

This offer was piled on with another by an overzealous, fast-talking telemarker who just did not understand "no!" The packet sent contained a number for an answering machine with a repeated reffal to a bogus website. So I could not cancel for 30 days. When a charge appeared on my bank statement with this phone number I called. After turning down offers, the customer servicer finally agreed to refund the charge. IT was a very frustrating experience. I hope that any other consumer encountering this problem can be reffered to the proper number for service.

This company not only buys your personal information from other vendors like, Evergreen/ Hydrolyze, but you can not get a person to answer the phone or a website to contact them as their website is always "under-construction". They will charge you a small fee of $3.95 along another company by the name of "Leisuretime aka My Leisure Discount" and the next month you are "kick" with a $28.95/ $28.85 respectively. They are criminals taking advantage of everyone at all costs...

Discount Savings Club I did not sign up for the club

! ! ! Warning ! ! ! Consumer be warned ! ! ! Warning ! ! !

The discount savings club company is committing fraud !

I received a phone call with a woman "claiming" to be from my credit card company (Name omitted) .
She signed me up for a free gas card and some trial stuff, the whole time with me saying "no, i do not want this! I don't care if the gas is free - i don't want to be signed up!"

I finally had to be more than rude and tell her i didn't want:
(1) the "free" $50 gas card
(2) the saving club membership
(3) the "free" 100 gas card
(4) the trial life insurance service.
(Are you serious!? Who is stupid enough to but life insurance from a phone call?)

After all that i was given a phone number, i called it and was told i have to wait 2 - 3 days for it to process before i can cancel it. I will be contacting an attorney if i see a single charge on my card.

*** this is a direct result of ordering products from those "as seen on tv" commercials (Usually with billy mays) . Products include, but are not limited to: the snuggie, aqua - globes, mighty putty, grab - it pro, steam buddy, or any of these products. Ordering any of these products will result in endless telemarketers, sales calls & people pretending to be your credit card company!

In addition - Do a Google search for "Telemarketer phone calls" + ANY of the product names I listed above.

Doing a search for "Telemarketer phone calls Snuggie" will result in countless blog postings, news forums and other public responses to the giant telemarketing scheme.

You personal Credit Card related information also become publicly available by entering a simple 10 digit phone number at their "secure" website https://www.customerstatus.com.

If you receive a call from ANY of the following phone numbers, ignore it and report it to your phone company.
They will keep on calling you, and from different numbers each time.

I called to book a hotel through Unlimited Vacation Clubs (UVC) 800 number and was greeted by a rep who said they were offering the $100 in gift cards for free just had to pay shipping of $1.95. I was getting so upset because he would not transfer me so I could book the hotel ( I have a membership with UVC). I hung up and called a second time and got the same problem Finally I said Ok send me the gift card and I would pay shipping. What a mistake! I could not get him to stop adding more costs and told him to stop and that I was not interested in any of their services. I demanded to be transfer to UVC and instead he transferred me to 411 for information. I found a different number for UVC and complained. Today I received a membership with a $19.95 monthly charge for Discount Savings Club. I immediately called the number and cancelled this fraudulent membership.

My wife and I were just victimized by this same SCAMMER! Wound up with a debit charge on our checking account for $9.95. We did not recognize anything about it. We called our bank to dispute this charge, where we received the [protected]. Upon calling this number, wound up talking to an obvious SCAMMER with an attitude! Please report every last incident to your banks, so these crooks can be identified and prosecuted!

I never signed up for this, my husband never signed up for this. I have been charged 12.95 for three months and I do not order "As Seen on TV" stuff or anything else for that matter... I use Amazon and that is all. I called my bank and they confirmed that this is a fraudulent charge. They also confirmed (at least according to the charges on my account) that there is no way that I signed up for this. I keep very strict books on our financials. I caught this very quickly, but still could not get the charges removed quickly enough to save myself the 40ish dollars that the company stole from me. This is ABSOLUTELY theft!
