Checks Unlimited offered checks for $20. We paid by credit card, the checks arrived in the mail along with an invoice for an additional $48. A seemingly hostile customer service rep was well schooled in intimidating and threatening dialogue. Our credit would be ruined! It's our fault for not remembering if we had ever ordered there before, they have no way of knowing that! No listening to reason, they had obviously received these very same phone calls many times before. They can afford to be rude and argumentative, after all, they triple their take by this fine print, bait-and-switch, heavy handed approach.
Some months later we receive the afore-threatened collection agency letter. Guess their intimidating tactics scare most people into paying exorbitantly high prices... I however feel that someone needs to speak up and try to discourage this heavy-handed, unreasonable marketing ploy.
