Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good?
I applied for a payday loan online on 12/27/05. I noticed that $21.95 was debited from my checking account on 1/4/06. I called my bank and got the companies name and phone number. When I called the company they told me that I applied for roadside assistance on line and I failed to cancel the account before the trial period was over.
When I thought about it I did not recall signing up for those services. I thought maybe my husband did because we just a got a new car, when I asked him about it, he said he did not apply.
Now that I have read the other stories I see that this is all a scam. I will do whatever I can to get the money back. I can't wait until Monday and call Roadside Plus to give them a piece of my mind, even though they are going to deny me a refund.

I also experienced the same charge. I only received 1 charge and my bank worked well with me and refunded me within 48 hours. After reading these reports, I'm afraid that I may be getting more charges in the future. I know this wasn't a service that I signed up for. I did apply for a payday loan and supplied them with my account information. They then supplied my information to this company...not me. The company told me they sent me an email and told me to cancel but I have searched my emails and spam mail for any such emails. I don't think this is a matter of reading small print. This is pure fraud!

It's called FINE PRINT! You have to read every word of any contract online or not! Remember that offer of a FREE TRIAL of 30 days of Roadside Assistance? They had to get your account information from you. How else would they get it? Think about it. Anyway, send them a letter by certified mail, return reciept requested that clearly revokes the right for them to debit your account, and to immediately cancel any existing accounts you may have with them. A notice to cease all business relationships. Put the certified mail# ON THE FACE OF THE LETTER, and make a copy of it before mailing. This proves WHAT you sent.

Think That's Bad ..Keep a sharp eye on your account. They'll probably be hitting it a whole lot more

Wait until you see the interest rate on your payday loan. Here in TX, it's like 480% or more when you add in the fees. Keep a sharp eye on your account. They'll probably be hitting it a whole lot more be all is said and done.
