I did a credit check on a debt counseling website, which stated that my account would be preauthorized for $1.00 and returned. I was billed the $1.00 which has never posted back to my account. A week later my account was charged $29.95, so I called the M*r F*rs and was told that would returned after they cancelled my membership.
There was nothing in the language of the original website that referred to a membership or anything other than the $1.00 "non-charge"
Shame on me for sharing card info with anybody in the credit/debt counseling/management/settlement industry. From what I have seen and researched, those businesses are 99% scams and frauds.
In addition to the "credit diagnosis" charge, I was also hit with a $1.00 fee from "club save" another parasitic scam outfit that seems to bottom feed off of info from these credit counseling rip-offs.
