I recieved a letter from Cambrdge Who's Who saying that I was chosen for success in my field. I then started recieving callsfrom a female at Cambridge Whos Who. When she called me again and said she needs to make by biography as soon as possible because they were closing the last details for the book. She starts asking me questions about my college and work background. After 30 minutes of questions and she praising me for my great achievements, then she said that she have decided to submit my information to be published. She told me the same crap that someone mentioned about them having 200,000 members and how good this will be for my career.
I was happy because I thought was quite an accomplishment, but then the scam started. She told me about the membership plans. One is called the platinum and the other gold. The first one costs $800!!! And the second $550 or so. The first one is a lifetime membership and the second a 5 years.in addition to be in the list, receive a CD, a certificate and all that crap, that if pay for the platinum I will also receive a voucher for an American Airline ticket. Then she offered me a $99 plan that will have me in the list for only 1 year but I will receive the certificate. I opted in for the 1 year membership just to see what it was all about. Well over 30 days later I havent recieved any of my information, I havent recieved the certificate, CD, or anything. I phoned several times, left messages with customer service, and noone returned my call. Today Jan 08 I phoned them again... And got the run around noone could answer my questions I got transfered to 3 different people before someone finally told me that "your memebrship has already been processed and non refundable" I explained that I was not happy with the service I recieved and I did not recieve the packet or information and I wanted a refund. The stated will the sale is final, I exlpained that I was not told the sale was final. She went on to say the customer service rep could lose her job if she did not tell me "that since the information was all personalized the transaction would be final, we dont say that it is nonrefundable."
I quickly stated again that I was not satisfaied and wanted a refund. She stated to me that all calls to thier office were recorded and if I was not told that the customer service rep would lose her job, never offering me a refund.
