Pimsleur Internet Order LLC Sends and Resends items I DID NOT ORDER!! Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Report Attachments
To submit or not to submit, obviously to Pimsleur aka Internet Order LLC, it does not matter! I have to date received 2 boxes marked Internet Order LLC. I did not even know who this company was. I think that is to masquerade who they might be so you go ahead and open their boxes and decide to keep instead of sending back. After 30 years of experience, I know not to open boxes with confusing company names and to research them on the internet first. Otherwise you get stuck with the full return postage. Little did I know that this company was aka Pimsleur the language CD gurus.
I only looked into the concept of the speaking Spanish CDs on their site, they promised that you'll have time to review your order and such. The usual scam is to duplicate your order, charge your card twice and keep your money for two weeks before they give it back they don't think it hurts us, but it does if its a bank card, they just want the interest off their "honest mistake"
Anyway, Pimsleur took their language CD site one step further, they submit without your permission if you fill out any of your card information. I tell you I did do that, but the Only Price Quoted was 19.95 for their CD, then just before you submit, there is this page with more information, which I know to read. It said that this CD was one of many and the total set would be an additional 200+ dollars. I am unemployed I knew not to submit. There was no cancel button, so I exited the site without submitting. They sent me an email that I had placed an order, I sent one back saying I did not order and it better not come out of my bank
First of all, box #1 comes in the mail, very small labeled Internet Order LLC, which could describe about 100 companies in the US. I had never heard of them, so I looked them up and found out it was Pimsleurs aka. I did not order it so I Marked Return to Sender in black magic marker and returned it thru the postoffice. Low and behold it is about 3 weeks later and they have sent a box #2, only it is 3x as big as the first. I am going to do the same thing, only ask for return receipt. Then I am going to scrutinize my bank statement to see what they have done.
If they have done what I think they have done AND cost me NSF fees I am turning them into the BBB. I was so glad to come across a Rip-Off Report site when I was Binging to remember who Internet Order LLC was.
Thanks
