I purchased tickets with Ticketmaster.com on May 4. Before completing the purchase a step in the orderform asked if I would like a three month trial with two of the five chosen magazines. Stating that this was a risk free no charge trial subscription that ended after three months, I selected Time and Entertainment Weekly. I then completed and purchased the tickets online.
The magazines started to arrive at the end of May begining of June. Letters of subscribing to these magazines also came in the mail but were thrown away in knowing this was trial subscription and I did not want to continue.
On June 27 a charge of $49.00 and $39.00 showed up on my credit card statement described as "EW" and "TIME". Without giving NewSub Magazine Services LLC my credit card numbers they were able to charge me for a "risk free, no charge trial subscription". It hasn't been three months of the trial and I was never informed if I wanted the service to be cancelled or continue.
Not knowing of who charged my credit card I started calling. I called Ticketmaster who told me to call EW/Time. They told me to call a phone number of NewSub Magazine Services LLC. I reached a voice automated system that wouldn't cancel and refund, but stop delivering and charge less for a differnt magazine.
I finally browsed the internet only to find fraudulent, scam, and rip-off blog type sites about this company.in doing so one of the complaint sites had a customer service phone number. I contacted NewSub Magazine Services LLC and told them to immediately refund my crdit card.
NewSub Magazine Services LLC is a fraudulent company. They get into purchases online with your credit/debit card numbers and offer risk free, no charge trial subscritions. Then charge you without consent or kwowing.
