I was contacted by a company called International Marketing saying they were doing a promotion for Visa/MC and they asked which one I had. They convinced me to order subscriptions to 5 magazines for the price of one. This totalled 29.99 per month for 12 months. I was supposed to entered into a drawing and receive a free diamond watch but I seriously doubt this is going to happen.
I thought this was a pretty good deal (the mags) until the phone calls started and would not end. Every night since October 8th they have called me asking to verify information (which they should already have) such as name, address, age... Then they would transfer me to their supervisor to make sure they were courteous etc... Most of the time I hang up in annoyance or because I'm busy but this last time I played along with the "supervisor" and she eventually asked me for my credit card number.
I told her "I am not going to give it to you if you don't already have it" and she hung up on me. They have called me since with the line "we have had some complaints about other mag subscription companies calling our customers for information, we want to insure you that we are the only company handling you" blah... Blah... Blah... This company says they are called Premier Reader Service.
I now have received a letter from CMS thanking me for paying my account in full ($274) which I did not authorize. Does anybody have a solution to this mess?
