Amerisave made an unauthorized charge of 500.00 on my Discover card on August 6. I was going to use them for a mortgage and gave them my card number to charge 35.00 for the application fee and 350.00 for the appraisal. I gave approval via the Internet for them use for both services.
When I cancelled my application after I received their closing quote which was 8500.00 more than my local mortgage company was charging, I cancelled my application via email to their representative I had been talking with.
On August 10, I received notice from Discover that I had a large purchase on my credit card. When I looked at my account, I saw a 500.00 charge on my card for Amerisave. I gave no permission, either verbally or via Internet for the 500.00 charge. I immediately tried to contact the rep and sent him an email telling him to remove the charge. I also called my credit card company to remove the charge and investigate. I am also going to contact the BBB about the practice.
The scary thing is they now have carte blance with my card, or anyones' cards for that matter to make unauthorized charges. This is a totally unethical way of doing business.
