Consolidated Media Service rip-off scam dirt bags Kennesaw Georgia
I'm a college student going to Syracuse University. This company called me while i was on christmas break. They said i was going to get a free watch when i would go back to school they also kept saying something about how much i would save on magazines. When i was done talking to them about a month goes by after i even receive any magazine and i try to cancel but they wont let me. They have been charging me $39.80 by putting the money on my parents credit card since December.
Then in March i called them in order to cancel the subscription in which i was told that i had to pay them $39.80 for 2 years before they can even cancel it. They refused to cancel it even after i said i could not afford it. They said i could have cancelled it 10 days after i made the deal but this was not even mentioned to me.

I was shocked to discover all these complaints on this company. In December of last year, I received a call from Consolidated Media Services which promised 4 magazine subscriptions for 4 years at a cost of $39.99 for 12 months. I agreed to send an electronic check in January of this year.
By the end of February, I had not received the magazines. I called their 800 number. The customer service representative took my complaint and agreed to allow me to make future payments by mail in check.
In March, I received only two of my magazines. Since then, Only those two magazines have been arriving every month. I am furious with the company. I don't think I should have to pay for magazines I have not received. The web site this company provided does not link me to their customer service department. I wonder if I'll ever receive all 4 of my magazines.
