Great American Readers unknown Unfair subscription practices, unfair charges to credit card, scam Bloomington, Minnesota
I was called at work on my cell phone. Stupidly I answered. I was promised a $1,000 shopping certificate and only had to agree to $40.90 a month, 5 years, for my choice of magazines. Thought it would be nice but now know how much this is going to cost me. The worst part is that after this phone call I started getting all kinds of calls from companies on my cell phones and instant messages also. All want to offer me some kind of wonderful product. Seems Great American Readers has passed on all my credit card information and contact information to many companies. My credit card has been charged fees from $1.00 up to $29.95 for services I never agreed to when speaking to American Readers or agreed to with the other companies. I am in the process of trying to cancel all the memberships that have appeared on my charge card as a result of the unethical business practices of Great American Readers. I have one address and one phone number for them. They sent me a piece of paper to sign saying I agreed to everything but I will not sign it.
This is an intrusive way of getting business - calling busy people like me, being push and rude, to the point I gave in. I know, I should have hung up.
I would like to cancel everything but am not sure I am up to the fight. Let them sue me for non payment and I will show the judge all the complaints I am compiling. Hope friends and family are smarter than I have been.
