Area Circulation I
Area Circulation Only $19.95 per month, exchanged my information, they took $74.00, I asked to cancell, & was told they were obligated & I can't cancell

On June 22nd, I was contacted by phone by a customer service rep from a company called Area Circulation Inc. The caller said, "we are offering three magazines of your choose & three others free & all for the cost of $19.95 per month". It sound like a good deal, so I agreed and exchanged my information. The caller then said that $74.75 was just charged to your account. I said, $74.75 you told me it was 19.95. She said that instead of charging me 50 times, they would charge me 8 times at $74.75. I then said, I would like to cancell this, because I can't afford such a large payment at this time & she said I can't cancell because they are obligated to the magazine companies. I told her again to cancell and got the run around. She said, we can set up a payment plan and the next payment would be due in September.

I agreed, in order to give me time to call my Bank and stop the payment.By the time I called my bank the payment was already posted and so I placed a stop payment on all future transactions. I had since called the company on three different occasions to cancell and was given the run around. On the last call I spoke to a manager and was told to cancell I would have to pay over $200.00. They continue to send me magazines & statements along with calling me 3 to 4 times a day. I would like it to stop. I believe this company to be a rip off. They mislead people who don't know their rights.
