I am a cardholder with Household Bank. I had a credit limit increase for the holidays, and the exact day my limit was raised, it was used by a company who listed themselves as TLG* Just For Me.
According to my statement, the charge had been issued 2 months prior (when the funds were not available) and the charge posted the very day funds were available. I called the phone number listed on the charge but got no answer.
I called my c/c company, who made no mention of the fact that it was a charge made through their company for a Travel Advantage company. I looked up the company on line and found the EXACT same ploy had been played with previous carholders and other creit card companies (I assume the banks are somedhow tied).
Like the other victims, I received a $2.50 check from Household Bank. I received two checks, a month apart. Unlike the other victim, I read the fine print and did NOT cash the checks. My credit card was still charged.
My c/c company said that I had to contact the TLG company and they could not help me. I, too, will be contacting the attorney general.
