Add me to the list of those victimized by this (these?) companies. I am not entirely sure how I ever got signed up with Pacific Webworks, apparently I did. So far I have been billed $49.90 three times. Each time the payee was a different entity: Pacific Webworks, PW Eauction and IT Eauction. This first item was on my July Visa statement. I emailed Pacific Webworks. They emailed back as follows: "You requested the Ebay toolkit of information on 5/21/07 with a 14 day trial period... After 14 days you are billed the normal monthly rate of $49.90 which is disclosed in the terms and conditions given during your sign up process and also on the confirmation page." As far as I know, I never received a confirmation page.
So far, I have contact Visa and they are going to reverse the charges, but it will take a while. I am also mailing a consumer complaint to the state of Utah today. If any of you would like to do the same, you can find the form at www.consumerprotection. Utah. Gov.
Also, as soon as I send this, I am going to complain to the Salt Lake City BBB.
