Grant Fund Search GRANT FUND SEARCH RIPPED ME OFF Internet
When I read a woman story on your site about being ripped off form Grant Fund Search I couldn't believe it. The same thing happened to me only I didn't know it.
My husband filled the thing out online and used my debit card.The one day in the mail arrived this disc. I asked what it was and he said it was an informational disc on grants.That all he had to pay was a 1.98 for the disc.
Well we thought we only paid a 1.98 yeah right! About a week ago I sat to do my bills and go through my bank statement and there it was a deduction for 69.95 I had know idea what it was for.
First thing I did was called my bank. They looked it up They had no clue, but they did tell me that there was a phone number. So I called the number I got the same thing as the other lady no answer then put on hold forever.They would tell me that a supervisor would have to call me back in an hour and never did.
I got so angry I didn't give up I called them until someone would help me.Finally after fighting with these people they decided they would refund my money. They said It will take 3 to 5 days. It's only been 2 days since I've talked to them.
Unfortunately a day later I found out from my bank that from them withdrawling the 69.95 caused me to bounce 2 checks that I wrote out and was charged 37.50 insufficiant fund fees for each check.
So I tried calling the grant people back to try and get my 75.00 back . They refused and told me its not there problem my checks bounced and its not their problem that my husband used my debit card without my knowledge.
So I might be getting the 69.95 back but I'm still out 75.00. And also like the woman in the other story. My husband and I don't have a lot of money to be throwing away I also have a sick child whose meds cost around 150.00 a month not to mention our other bills.

I don't see the ripoff here.....I see your husband using your debit card without your knowledge, and you obviously bouncing checks and your bank legitimately charging you overdraft fees......no ripoff here.
