Instant Cast ripoff, I attempted to cancel within the trial period, was told not to, unapproved charges resulted New York New York
I signed up for this as a lark and then thought about it and realized it was impossible. I couldn't get to the East Coast for casting calls.
So, I called and a real woman answered the phone. I explained my dilemma and she was very cordial and encouraging and stated there was no reason to cancel until I received my first call. There would be no charge until then.
I signed up on 11/20/05 and was billed on 11/21 for $51.87. I was shocked since I had been told this service would cost $2.99 a month after my first call.
I began to make daily phone calls and I never again spoke to a human being. I received the nicest message, promising me that they would most definitely be in touch with me within 24 hours, and their clients were their biggest concern, blah, blah, blah.
On December 1 I sent an e-mail cancelling my membership. I wonder if they added the two charges they made on December 1st before or after they received my e-mail. Each charge was for $25.87.
That brings my grand total up to $103.61 which is most definitely fraud. I was told NOT to cancel my membership until I "received my first call". I have yet to receive that first call.
Buyers, beware! Look what happened to my "little lark". Is anyone out there doing business in a legal manner?
