I had a charge on my credit card from MWI Simple Escapes. There was a number associated with this company and I immediately contacted them. The gal was pleasant to deal with, but kept asking me to try their services and I kept responding that they got my information through fraud, and unless the charges were reversed I would notify my state's attorney general. She agreed to refund the charges, but said it might take two billing cycles. Then I contacted my credit card company and reported these charges as fraud. They agreed to investigate, and today I received a letter from Capital One stating that the charges had been reversed, as a credit had been issued to my account by MWI Simple Escapes. My point is that you must persue this through the original creditor and your credit card company. Don't let them get away with these fraudulent charges! A file with your state's attorney general couldn't hurt.
