On April 4 we got hooked. Confirmation letter stating that we were officially entered in the "Super Prize" sweepstakes. Turns out that what we thought was a two year contract turned out to be in fact a four year and when we tried to cancel, they denied us saying that we were in a four year and that the companies have already been paid so we had to stay as it was.
They said that they could lower the payments and add more months (original payments: 16 months/$49.81—$3.83/week) You do the math it is all wrong. We have been paying them now since then. When they found out that we wanted to cancel because they withdrew automatically and over drew our account which is really really in the hole now, they still refused to cancel claiming that we are in a four year contract. Now we are looking at having the account shut down, and put into collections. We have paid out already $298.86 and have recieved only maybe seven or eight magazines.
The only reason I even checked into this whole ordeal was because of a prize winning scam from Singapore/Australia. I got smart on that one but not apparently the magazine deal. I dont think that there is really anything that can really be done at this point. It is in his name and they refuse to talk to me now since the last time I got irrate on the phone trying to cancel so he will try and cancel it again himself on his next day off; but like so many of the other people they have screwed so far, he works a real job during the week, thier business hours.
If there is any way that this can be fixed, could you please let us know. Curiosity mainly.
