I ordered from Pizza Hut and others have ordered from FTD Florist,
JC Whitney Tiger Direct, Vista Print and clicked a box requesting that
they send you coupons and discounts information and suddenly started
receiving $12.00 monthly charges? Where did these companies get access
to our credit card information?
It turns out when you order online at these companies they supply your
credit card info to a 3rd party company, in this case, COMPLETE
SAVINGS, and they start charging you a monthly fee for discounts you
never get on products you never order. The way it works: the Pizza Hut
site offers you money off your order for filling out a survey. The
survey is much longer than you expect. when you click out of it, it
signs you up as agreeing to Terms and Conditions, which is a lie. Then
Pizza Hut gives your credit card info to a company you never heard of.
I am looking to put together a group of individuals who have had their
credit card charged through COMPLETE SAVINGS and are interested in
putting a stop to these types of fraudulent practices.
While the Senate Commerce Committee is investigating these practices,
as consumers, we have the right to sue the merchants directly. If you
have been wronged and interested to participate in a class action,
please reply here or email me at
