I ordered a CD on how to build my own business at home for $1.95. I have never received the CD, and I have been charged $1.95 for the CD plus $39.90 each month for three months for something I apparently agreed to in the terms and agreements. I was not aware I agreed to this.
When I first noticed this charge on my bank account, I called them to question it and cancel it. They wanted more of my personal information in order to cancel it so I chose not to deal with it through them but through my bank. I was afraid to give them more of my information for fear they would misuse it again. I spoke to my bank who has suggested I call the company back and cancel my subscription. It is apparently in their "fine print". Whether they are within the realms of the law is still in questions, but they are definitely not an ethical company.
My advice is always READ THE FULL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ANY AGREEMENT before you agree to it. We all know better but how many people actually do this.
