Well believe it or not, I just got a call from 'John' a 'manager' from Global Travel International, Inc DBA Journey Pass. Lucky for me my cc was declined or I would have been out the $99 for the membership as opposed to the $4.95 trial fee. I told him I just read a plethera of info on this company and it is scary to think they do folks like this...He said we have been in business for 14 years and are reputable company and what I am reading about is a lot of copy cat companies out there who are ripping people off. I told him that is probably a true statement but what really scares me is that he had my cc info. He said they get those from 'marketing partners' who sell that info and you have to be careful about how you use your cc over phone and online. Really??? DUH!!! I made a few suggestions one of which was to do damage control from these 'copy cat' companies if they (Journey Pass) are soooo reputable. He said thanks for the suggestion. Bottomline, I got lucky that my cc had expired and therefore the fee was declined and that I called when I did. My warning to all...if you get a call or an email from these kinds of companies..hang up...that is the best defense....
