Realizing that there were a/b 6 months of UNAUTHORIZED charges from some company AKA-" AP9 Todays Escape", we called the number on the credit card invoice to question the "company". The answering official REFUSED to educate my wife a/b the company or its charges because SHE was not "THE MEMBER". When I called and questioned the charges on MY card I was told it was because I had given this bogus "COMPANY" PERMISSION to charge MY card when I participated in an INFOMERCIAL on TV. When asked exactly WHAT I had been paying for precisely 6 mo.-the reply was -"we OFFER TRAVEL DISCOUNTS". Hello, I never asked for, nor have I recieved, travel discounts, nor ANYTHING FROM THIS "COMPANY". I asked for a manager, never talked to one, asked for refunds for last 6 mo and was told they would be glad to return ONLY THE last 30 days of charges to my card. I was beligerent and suggested they had better return ALL OF THE UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES!! They agreed to, but we will have to see. I also checked the BBB in Stanford, Conneticut only to find that there were MANY COMPLAINTS FILED ABOUT THE SAME "COMPANY" --- AND many other AKAs of the SAME company througout the US. BEWARE, WATCH FOR ANY CHARGES THAT YOU KNOW ARE NEW EACH MONTH.
