Complaint Review: FlyCell - Fly Cell - FlyCell.com

Visited www.flycell.com for a new ringtone. Was asked to enter cell phone number to see what ring tones were available. Got billed $9.95 on my cell phone statement. NEVER opted in to ANYTHING. Tried calling to get a live person for a credit and to cancel, however phone system is completely automated. I had my phone carrier black list them. I suggest everyone also contacts the better business bureau and your state attorneys office.
