This company said to buy their bids, I spend $100.00 on bids, however, while I was bidding on a gold bar they stopped my bidding and said I should pay the fixed price. The bid was $22.00 and the fixed price was $79.00. I guess I spent too many of my bids and they shut me down. You have to pay to bid and you have to pay the final bid price. They they decide you have bid too much and force you to pay full price anyway. This is stealing. They can keep my remaining 114 bids because I won't use them for anything more than a lesson in being so stupid. I hate this trickery. I give them money and they take it, they make me think I will get something for it just to pull it away at the last minute. They must be laughing themselves sick over how many stupid people are falling for their scam. Any they are getting away with it. So much for trust.
I was on Overstock.com and when it asked for credit info I did so thinking I was still on Overstock, but zbiddy had hacked into my transaction and next thing I know I've purchased 265 bids, a dollar value of $159.00! Major scam! Don't do it.
I was not aware that I would be automatically charged for bids when I signed up. They also, without notice, charged me for another set of bids . Why I do not know. They refused to return the fees. The auctions are impossible to win and there are only about two items up at a time. All other auctions are for bid amounts or gift cards which are available at a cost of $13.oo for a ten dollar gift card. Stay away!
It's a SCAM!
Everything people are saying against this fraudulent company is true. After 45 minutes of arguing zbiddy said they are refunding my $99 and I will receive an email in 24-48 hours saying so, and the refund will be complete withing 2 weeks. If it’s not, I’ll be posting again. As soon as I realized I was charged $99 – that at first I thought was my negligence, but after reading reviews see it’s their ploy – I did a live chat to ask for my refund. After 3 minutes I was told I would need to make a phone call. I thought I reached India, but the rep said it was Florida. David began his sales pitch of offering me free bids and just try it.
After 45 minutes of yelling through the phone, and furiously stating I want my $99 back, not a restaurant voucher, gas voucher, discounts – NOTHING! Every time he began his sales pitch up again I rudely stated I didn’t want to hear anything other than the word “REFUND”. I told him I would be putting reviews all over the internet, and while I was saying it, I searched for reviews and found this website. So I began reading to David about this scam, then asked him how he liked working for a company that steals from people. I couldn’t believe that everything that just happened to me I was reading about.
So it’s NOT YOU if you got tricked into this, it’s the website that sucked you in. DON’T accept ANYTHING but a refund. Then report this company to every agency possible and every review possible. I will post it on Facebook to every friend I have. Oh, and I called my Credit Card Company to cancel – they can’t do anything until it’s posted to the account. So I will call back in a day or so.
Zbiddy is a scam! They were supposed to return the $50 priceline/thehotelclub gift card value they collected on booking on 5/22/12 a hotel within 3 weeks. It has been over 4 weeks and no word from them except on 6/15/2012: “we got slammed with the PCI compliancy///” whatever PCI compliancy means and why is that my problem that they are not returning my refund? THen on 6/23/012: “It is in our Accounting department now.”. So why should it still be in “accounting” and not in my bank account? No response from priceline/thehotelclub and no emails from zbiddy since I asked them what was going on. Also the value of the items Zbiddy is offering is declining into just a few value items with lots of subscriptions to mags ($18 S&H fee) and more priceline (rip off) hotel cards! Seems like zBidddy is going the way of snoopo with declining values and slow or no returns of gift card amounts that you have to pay in advance to get the value of the hotel cards! beware of these “penny” auctions stealing your dollars!
charge of $99.00 to my credit card for viewing the site which was not upfront or authorized.
This is a total scam! I won a "rookie" bid, a $15.00 I-Tune card, for $3. 60. But when I paid, I was charged another $79.00 for bids that I did not purchase! When I demanded my money back, I was told half of that amount would be refunded. I fear I will never see a penny of that. This is nothing but a giant SCAM! I will post this on FB everyday for the rest of my life to warn people away from zbiddy!
This site should be shut down immediately. I "won" several items, paid for them and have received no contact from them since. It's been over a month now. I had a cyber-chat with someone at the site who promised she would "elevate" my complaint. (maybe she meant expedite), and told me I would receive an email from her with the content of our chat and that I would be contacted within 48 hours concerning the problems with my "wins." 3 weeks and still waiting. Does anyone know of an official site... class action lawsuit? I want my money back and from what I've read, they have scammed thousands of people. That site has to be shut down.
gives you 25 free bids then when you win something there is an extra $79.00 charged to your card. SCAMMERS
This company thinks that we are all stupid. They take advantage of their customers, making them think that they are winning alot, but are actually paying alot. They are getting scammed.
I was on ZBiddy. My credit card had unauthorized charges on it. You get charged the price that you won the item plus a service charge. This may be very confusing when you win many items. Your credit/debit card will have 10 charges on it for 5 items that you won. Now here is the catch: I had a $ .02 charge on it that was not authorized. They couldn't explain where this came from, only that they are connected with other overseas companies. Hey. Taking one penny unauthorized is STEALING. Multiply these pennies by who knows how many customers and you have big bucs. IT IS A SCAM. I had them live online and they counldn't explain some of these charges. I was going to go over them one at a time. They couldn't explain them. (I HAD MANY UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES). I had to close my account with them in order to get my credit card numbers out of their system. I did this to avoid any further charges. I also blocked all my cards and got new ones.
Before bidding on something you should read the fine print below the description, because there are MANY restrictions, exclusions...etc. Things that are FREE are not really FREE when you find out all the information. I won $2000 grocery cash. When I got on the site I had to pay additional fees. I had to pay $300+ for a plane ticket that I could get on my own for less that half the price. This was in order to get FREE companion airfare. Some people were bidding on items that were worth $5. They would win the item for, lets say, $2 and then pay a fee on top of it. THE ZBIDDY SYSTEM SUCKS AND IS A SCAM. They are just stealing your money. I heard about many Companies/crooks out there that will get your credit/debit card number when you purchase. or win something and then make some additional, small charges on them (so you won't notice). This company did this to me. It happens to many people out there. BEWARE

So far I won free bid packages on Zbiddy. I am gonna try to use them to win more items.

I agree unauthorized charges to take advantage of us hard working people! zbiddy is A SCAM! NO ONE will answer any calls or reply on email.
I received an email about this web site and was asked to register which I did and they asked for a card for future purchases, Then thy charged my card for a purchase which I never made and after speaking with them I wanted to make everyone aware of their fraudulent dealings.
This company is nothing but a bunch of crooks.. Please everyone beware of them and don't even click on their emails.
I received an email from them and was asked to register and was tricked into registering a credit card just in case I purchased anything. I purchased nothing and they took money from my account and I want everyone to know that this company is dishonest and they pray on people who are looking to save money. Accept nothing less than a refund of your money . They are frauds and not trust worthy. Everyone needs to be careful when dealing with this web site.
