CMS ripoff dishonest deceptive arrogant

I folded to the high pressure sales tactics employed by the CMS telemarketer. After repeating numerous times that I am too busy to read magazines, I have cancelled all my other magazines and do not desire any magazines, I still ended up ordering three subscriptions for four years.

Once I got off the phone I was thoroughly po'd at myself for falling for the slick sales presentation.

The only thing which was a plus so far is that they waited till the date I specified before debiting my credit card. But now, after mailing in the official cancelation request, within a day of receiving the welcome package, I am still waiting for some acknowledgement that may request will be honored and my initial payment will be refunded.

It has only been two weeks so there is no way I have started to get any magazines yet. I just came across a ConsumerAffairs.com article which states that the FTC has filed with a federal judge in Virginia to get a restraining order against CMS and it's affiliate companies.

In the mean time I have requested a cancelation of the credit card I provided to CMS. This is a pain because I have several other bills which are auto-debited from that card. But better to go through the hassle of providing a new card number to the legitimate companies then to let CMS debit any more money from my account.

I don't expect to see a refund. If that one payment is the only thing I lose then I will take my knocks and learn from it all.
