Entertainment Rewards - Ticketmaster
Charged $7 for Two Years for Services Never Requested

I was completely stunned to receive a recent e-mail stating that my account with Entertainment Rewards was closing due to their inability to bill my account. I did not even know I had an account! Thinking this was related to recent charges made fraudulently on my credit card, I called and was informed that I had been charged $7 for the past 2 years for services I knew nothing about!
Apparently, when I used Ticketmaster's services 2 years ago, they automatically signed me up and started billing me. I never noticed the charges because they were coming from my debit account, where I have hundreds of charges a month. I would never have noticed a charge so small amongst all the other charges.
When I called the company and explained that I had never signed up for their services and that I would like my $168 returned, they said they could only refund me for the past 3 months. They keep $147 for absolutely nothing, since no services were ever received.
This scam run by Entertainment Rewards and Ticketmaster has apparently gotten a lot of people to pay a lot of money for nothing. They do not send you monthly notifications of the withdrawals, and if you do not know anything about it, any e-mail sent will look like spam. Ticketmaster and Entertainment Rewards should be prosecuted for credit card fraud!
