Active Periodicals really messed up my day up today. I was waiting for the vet to call me back and instead I was greeted by a man that acted like we had known each other. He then finally said he was making a courtesy call and wondered how I liked my magazines?
I asked him what magazines? Well hadn't you been getting them because you had signed up for them? I told him no I haven't and so he switched me over to a supervisor who said I had signed up and my 30 days had already expired and I was obligated to the contract. I told him I never committed to anything and he said well we've been making charges to your account and gave me my last 4 digits to a visa account. I did check and I did have that card but didn't know how he got it. He told me I would have to go through this recording and gave me the answers that I would have to answer to these questions that made it look like I had signed up with them and would ask their mercy to drop the charges if possible. I felt like I was in N. Korea trying to get out and having to confess to something I didn't do! I ended up hanging up and he tried to call me back a couple of times. I decided to call my credit card company just to see if they did activate something and sure enough they had this charge that they said they would charge that was pending today. The credit card company said I would have to wait until it went through and once it did to call Active Periodicals back and if they still gave me the run around to call the credit card company back. I wish we could call them InActive Periodicals! Because it looks like they have had a lot of complaints!
