Ebay sent me an e-mail advertising they would send me a free kit to start making money on their site. I went through all the pages without seeing anything but free kit information. The pages show books and specifically ask for shipping information. The third page asks for a credit card number for $1.97 to pay for shipping for the free kit. No kit was ever delivered.
I saw a charge on my credit card for $69.95 and promptly called to cancel any service that I was not aware I was being charged for. The customer service person would NOT refund that charge since 30 days had passed since I signed up for this offer saying that this notice of a charge is in the terms and conditions which is a tiny link on the web pages.
The information that says this is a 30 day trial and that you will be charged more money later does NOT show up any where that is clearly visable on the web pages. I feel Ebay should refund the money since the information was not clearly displayed and I did not use the web page they say the $69.95 paid for.
No kit was mailed and the web page even shows a US postal box and states that S/H not included... Apparently all this was suppose to be downloaded stuff not actual books. This offer is not what it appears to be at all but a total rip off without any notice to the consumer.
