Universal Buying Club

About a month ago I recieved a letter to my husband saying he joined this club, he never did. I called and cancelled. Yesterday, i recieved a bill for 69 to be paid immediately. Today they tood 35 bucks out of my account. Then told my hubby that we needed it. Now essetially this is a coupon clipping service. I do not live in a town that has ANY of these places. We have a Safeway and a walmart. Why in satans name would I pay 40 bucks a month for this crap? we dont have any chain restraunts, we dont have an airport, no mall. I hate places that use your card from a purchase online to start charging your card, isnt that illegal?

They tried to get me too. I have been getting phone calls from them for the last 2 months saying I owed them money. The funny thing was they already tried to get money from my fathers account that I have no information about. After 2 months of calls they finally sent me a invoice in the mail. So I looked them up on the internet and found this page which I was so glad of because I wasn't sure if this was a scam or not. Reading your posts helped a lot. When I called them about the bill because thankfully I never sent them money in any form. They kept saying they had a recording of me agreeing to sign up for there services. When I asked them to play it they sent me to a supervisor. When he said he had it I just asked again for him to play it. He put me on hold and I waited then he came back with another offer and when I said no he just told me he was canceling my account and hung up. I just thought I would post this as a thanks because these posts helped and hopefully my experience with t... Read more

They called me at home claiming to be my bank saying is your debit card this? And read off the numbers, cuz i was hesitant i'm like ya it is must be my bank then, sir thanks for being a loyal customer of our bank we'd like to send you 100 dollar gift card to walmart for being a loyal customer, then went on about this magazine trial and I hung up on them, later I get a letter saying congratulations your on a 7 day trial to the universal buying club. I called them up, and was still polite to the lady said I did not sign up for this take me off and don't ever bill me! After many scripts of trying to get me to stay after I said no repeatedly she took me off.... so I thought. 3 days later I get 2 diff charges adding up to 96 dollars. I"m furious! These reviews are in 2008 and this is end of 2009 now that this happened. I can't believe this company has not been caught yet! The owner should be in jail! I'm currently trying to get my money back, thank god my bank rocks and will probably reinbu... Read more

Its really pretty simple. I told them that i was signed up for this "program" without my permission. The person on the phone said, "well how about you try it out for a week and if im not satisfied just call back". A week later i called back and said (just sweet talk them) ," i was signed up for this program without my permission but i said what the hell ill try it out for a week and uh its just not workin out for me". She said asked for my account info which was sent in the mail, and on my account was actually notes that said something like," customer was unsatisfied if they call back then cancell the account". i just got my check 07-26-08 and i called back after my week on 07-22-08. i hope they are as cooperating with you as they were with me. i know your really upset but call in a nice manner explain what happened and hopefully get your weeks trial. Good Luck!

I never subscribed to this company. My brother used my credit card without me knowing and i checked my bank statement online and noticed that there was an unauthorized transaction on my account. I called that 800 number and was told that they reimbursed me on 03-10-2008. Todays date is 03-13-2008. Tomorrow will make four days that i still haven't received a refund. Now I have to resort to civil action. Even after I told the associate, whose name is amy, that I didn't authorize it she still failed to refund me. THIS IS THE WORST SCAM EVER!

yes i fell for this to i canceled my membership two days after i got it i was told i wouldnt be billd for anything else and i was cant wait to get these people in a court room does anyone have there number

I didn't even sign up for this! I had signed up with another company to get magizines and apparently they signed me up for this also without even mentioning the Buying Club therefore they DID NOT have my permission. I would advise anyone signing up with a telemarketing magizine company to be aware that they are connected with the Buying Club and may sign you up with out you knowing about it. When I called to cancel with the Buying Club the rep. I spoke with was actually very nice and understanding, but I did let her know about the reviews that others posted about cancelling and then still being charged. I just told her that if I ever had another charge from them I would take legal action (which I reccommend anyone else cancelling with them to do just in case.) I hope that I have no more problems but if I do I will certainly write another review to inform others!

wtff they did the same thing to me!! and they still havent given me my frickin money backk!! they keep giving me stupid ship excuses evertyime i call them..its been over a month and i still havent gotten my refund!..ughh total fraud!

WARNING: This so-called "company" is a complete ripoff. They charge you for a service you never receive. They have THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE! They charged my card for 94.40 even after I cancelled my worthless membership. Then when I demanded my refund of my money I was given the run around and made to wait with no resolve. Finally under the threat of class action suit they reluctantly electronically transferred my money back to me. Convienently for them on a wednesday before a holiday weekend thus causing an even greater delay in the refund. DO NOT JOIN THIS FRAUDULENT CLUB!!! They are nothing but a scam and have no positive listings with the Better Business Beureau.
