I logged on to gofreecredit.com to get a FREE credit score. They prompted me for some information including my credit card # "in order to check my credit".
I know this was a no-no and I made a mistake, but I read ALL THE FINE PRINT, and I did not see ANYWHERE that there would be a monthly charge if I did not cancel my "membership" within 7 days.
Well, after 2 months, I noticed that I was charged $29.95 for each of those 2 months!!! I called the company 1 800 316 8750 and was told that the information about membership was in the terms and conditions.
Well, I went back to the site, and it was not in "terms and conditions" but it was in a spot that was not obvious. I called them and after much complaining, managed to get 1 months charges cancelled. After I hung up, I was not satisfied, so I called again and asked for a supervisor. Again, after being VERY persistent, I got the other charge reversed.
Lets wait and see if my credit card is actually credited.
