The Grant University - IWB Club Fraudulent charges to my credit card Grant Funding Search Henderson Nevada
I was searching for grants for my business, and came across the Grant University. I was curious, so I sent for the "FREE" DVD, and paid 1.98 shipping. I did not receive the DVD, and forgot about the company until 3 weeks later when I received my credit card statement.
There was the $1.98 charge, and also a $69.95 charge from the same company. I called and got some foreign person whom I could not even understand. I must have argued with her for over an hour until I least I was able to get her to take me off their monthly charge list. So I contacted my credit card company and they were able to remove the $69 charge.
Now, on my next credit card statement (I have not used this card since then), is another charge of $29-something from a company called IWB Club. This time, a company I have never heard of, and did not authorize any charges from them. Upon calling the number that my credit card company supplied, I could not get a connection. I filed the claim as fraudulent and closed my account.
I did some searching on the internet and found that the 2 companies have done the same thing to other people. The Grant University is selling or giving credit card information to other companies, which is ILLEGAL!! We need to do something about this!

The same thing happen to my husband, he ordered the free information the company offerd, he only had to pay for shipping 1.98 which he did, and today I look at my account and I have a charge on there from club services (IWB). So I called them and asked them why did they cahrge my account 30.00 when the information was free, the man said because we have enrolled him in our club.... I told him my husband did not sgin up to be in any club and to remove these chagres off my account! The young man said he would so now i'm waiting to see if they really will remove the charges. I will have to close out my account aswell.... Never again will either one of us will send off for anything free using our credit cards. This company is a RIP OFF!!
