Ebay Success System Advertised a free success kit, yet charged me $39.95 for online access account! McHenry Illinois
I ordered this kit under false pretenses! The site said only $1.95 for shipping and the disc is free! Well I checked my bank account and saw a charge of $39.95 there, now I wouldn't order that crap if I would have known that, I ordered the kit to help me make money, not charge me! I can't afford this! They refused to give me a refund and said I "should have read the terms and conditions online" to avoid the charges I "should have cancelled my membership within the 7 days." What a crock of S***! Also when I called the number provided it took them over 30 mins to get to my call! How do I report them to the BBB? I am so angry now! This is flipping retarded! Now I am overdrawn in my bank account and don't get paid for another week. Now how am I supposed to feed my 1 year old child? Not to mention the stupid disc is a load of crap! It tells you exactly the same things Ebay tells you! Take my advice and don't bother with this scam!

I played with the website and went through the the "approval' process with all fake info. I was Fred Flinstone on one page and on the next I changed my name to Bugs Bunny, I was approved because there are openings in the 00000 zip code.
The final page were it asks for payment is says you have 3 (not 7) days to cancel.
It also says the company is located in Gibraltar. 3, Bell Lane, Gibraltar to be exact. The BBB or anyone in the US cant help you.
Call your bank and tell them what happened. They will change your account numbers so these people cant bill you again.
That $39.95 is a monthly charge is only the start
