I signed up for BlueMountain.com one evening very late at night to send a card to my cousin who is ill. I searched for free cards and blue mountain came up. I went through all the decisions of selecting a card and provided my credit card info.
I realize that was MY mistake, but I was vulnerable, it was late at night, and I was upset about my cousin.
Then I figured, oh well, maybe I'll send some other cards and see if I like the service, and then I WROTE DOWN THE DATE MY TRIAL EXPIRED SO I WOULDN'T FORGET IT!!!
That date should have been today, March 2nd, and I planned to cancel when I arrived at work, but BlueMountain.com had already charged my account! They did not even give me the full day!
I tried contacting them and was subjected to THE MOST FRUSTRATING, CIRCULAR ON-LINE EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD. I tried the phone number and that did not work either...
I kept wondering how a compnay could make money on this. I am middle-aged; I figure young people don't use these kinds of cards (they know how to access the free ones). Old people don't use these, but maybe people like me, who have enough computer savvy to be dangerous, think they'll try it and then they get zapped!
Ironically, my cousin never received her card! So, I have now paid $30 for a card that was not even read!
During the trial period I did not use bluemountain at all, and I received no reminders or emails from them
I am going to try to get this charge removed from my account, but fortunately, I have a job and I cannot spend all my time on resolving this. I do pledge that if I am not successful, I will use the cards and write on every one that bluemountain.com is a terrible site and people should use one of the truly FREE sites that my husband since told me about.
I hope other people come forward and relates similar accounts so people will know NOT to do business with bluemountain.com!!
