Science of Skill Unauthorized monthly charge

In September I bought a hatchet from this company that I thought would be good for camping. In October I did not notice but they charged me $57.00. Now, in November I noticed another $57.00 charge from them. I have disputed these charges with my credit card company and have them blocked. I have called Science of Skill but have only reached their voicemail. They said they would respond in 2 business days. I'm waiting.

Country of complaint: United States

Desired outcome: I want my $114.00 back.

I am amazed. In less than an hour I received a return call form Science of Skill and they refunded my 2 $57.00 charges. They said it will take 3 to 7 business days to reflect these reversal of charges.

Checking my bank account today, I noticed a $57.00 charge on my account from this company. I have never heard of this company. I then typed in the amount in the search bar and realized they have been charging my account every month since March 18, 2020, totaling $1843.96! I have reported them to the fraud department at my bank and canceled my card. This scam is probably hitting a lot of bank accounts and they need to be stopped!

Science of Skill Unauthorized subscription charges

From Science of Skill, five $6.00 charges for something I never ordered. Luckily I discovered it after only $30 was charged. The greeting when you call them is the same as the greeting, same voice, same wordage for Survival Constitution for which I was charged $57 for something I never ordered! I'm going to contact them first and if I can't get any results I will file a dispute with my bank. Both of these companies are affiliated with a company called For Patriot or Patriot Wholesale. Will never order anything from them again! They sold my credit card info to these two companies who then started charging me for something I never ordered. The $57 charge through Survival Constitution happened only once because my bank is awesome and their fraud protection dept. contacted me the same day!

Country of complaint: United States

Desired outcome: Full refund and Cancellation of subscription I never ordered

I had the same experience with Science of Skill. It turns out I did order a survival lantern from them for $12.95 S & H. I didn't see the fine print about a fee of $57.00 being deducted from my account every month. I called there phone number after going back through my checking account & email & finding the transaction. I called [protected] & spoke to a nice lady about wanting a refund because I didn't authorize any further transactions. She mentioned the 14 day trial which I didn't se, but had to opt out of in order to not have the monthly charges. She is giving me a refund of $114.00 for Jan. & Feb. of this year according to their 60 days guarantee. I really wanted to full $228, but because I didn't catch it sooner I didn't argue with that. My account has now been cancelled. I will NEVER fall for a FREE except for S & H scheme again! I hope my experience can help someone else! Susan R.

I will put a law suit on science of skill if they take that 57 dollars out my account without authorization!

I have just discovered, much to my surprise, that Science of Skill has been deducting $57 per month from my credit card going back months. I have no idea how they got my credit card info but I intend to not only dispute this with my bank, but also pursuing criminal charges against this fraudulent activity. These thieves need to be held accountable for their actions.

I ordered a free knife from them and was charged shipping fee! No other charges were listed. Found I've was subsequently charged $57 on the card I used to purchase the knife! This is a scam and this company should be fined and shut down! The Ohio BBB should be aware of this shady company by now and should shut them down for their fraudulent business and...
