Video Blocks are scamming internet users into via a 'Free Trial Offer' where the registration for the trial requires detail inclusive of 'credit card' detail... When I saw this, I declined the 'Free Trial' period offer, this resulted in a personalised E Mail saying 'we noticed that you haven't taken up our offer... Could you please share with us why'...
I replied saying I saw no reason to provide credit card detail for a 'Free Trial' and was then assured 'we need this for registration, No billing will be done WITHOUT Your agreement, like a fool, I registered, However, I have never used their services... Not Even During the Free TrialoPeriod... I never opened an account with them! And supsequently even 'Forgot' about this site... I have NEVER received any invoices, nor information of debits / payments... No correspondence of any type. Confirm now... Or ELSEa transaction going thru my account...
I (foolishly) don't examine my bank statement on a regular basis, I recently enacted a transaction alert service for my card and became aware of a 'month-end' transaction I couldn't relate to when I saw R630.00 (South Africa Rand) deducted for an obscure name I didn't relate to... Further enquiries showed transactions going back as far as I could reasonably look back (3 months)... Probably pre-dates even this! I then looked up Videoblocks and found, to my great surprise fraud/scam/ripoff-business-practices links... These ALL described my experience!
I have sent E Mails to Video Blocks demanding immediate cessation of billing, and a credit for ALL past amounts they have debited me for, I still await response.
