Signed up with Great Fun to get a discount from Tiger Direct. Cancelled monthly service almost immediately and received confirmation of cancellation..

Then started receiving $16.99 auto debits monthly from Buyer's Advantage, which I had never heard of before. Called today and was told that there were actually 2 services and I had to separately cancel both. I can see nowhere I was informed of this, certainly not when I originally contacted them to cancel using the information I was supplied when I signed up.

They did promise to reverse the most recent debit charge and cancel the "service", but not the earlier charge I missed, nor the overdraft charge.

They were polite on the phone, but this is clearly a manipulative money-making scheme. Just search for "scam" together with TLG, Great Fun, Buyers Advantage, or Shoppers Advantage and you will find many examples of people tricked.

Monetary Loss: $52.

Me too, just happened to me over like 5 months

Guest

thank you for posting it. I signed up for Great Fun as well and received two $1.00 charges.

The other was for Buyers Advantage.

I called right away to cancel. Thank you.

I thought I couldn't be tricked like I was today. I got a call from shoppers advantage wanting to confirm my address for a product I ordered.

Before I knew it, I was told I would also receive discounts for gas, restaurants,etc. So I say ok. Then I'm told its a membership in some discount club. I told the person no that I wasn't interested.

I was told I could cancel at any time after I received package of discounts. I repeatedly said I was interested. Then I was told there would be a $1 process fee in 3-5 days. I'd have up to 30 days to cancel with a phone call.

If I didn't I would be charged $29.99 every month. This is connected with 2 other companies! So I know this will take more than 1 call.

Hopefully I will be only charged $2 at most. Meanwhile I will warn everyone I can about this nearly fraudulent memberships!

Guest

I just had the same experience with both Great Fun and Shopper's Advantage.

scam, only it kind of works ... because now I have two charges on my card instead of 1!

Guest

hi this is __ from great fun. thanks for your interest in our special offer which is now even better.

how are you today? were acctually going to double your saving to $100 cash back. that means you can get $50 cash back towards todays reservation and another $50 cash back towards your future reservation, and that is just for trying great fun...blah blah blah...

sounds familiar? yes ofcoarse..i was working with affinion and we handled great fun,travelers advantage, buyers advantage and shoppers advantage.

when you book a flight from allegiant,cheap-o air and one travel, and or car reservation from dollar rent a car,thrifty and super shuttle there will be a pop up saying you will recieve a rebate for $20-$50. same thing if you purchase something online from gogotech and tiger direct.

THis is a scam account. they trained us NOT to disclose that aside from the base presentation there will be and upsell presentaton that the customer will never notice! so technically the charge is $2 for the 2 membership.

part of our script stated that "after the first 30days of service for just $1,its currently only $16.99 a month.

but remeber if you decide to cancel after your 30 days trial, just call the toll free number and you will not owe another dime" ofcoarse there will be no another dime bec you were charge $16.99 already!

if you guys want to hunt and stop this scam account,you can coordinate with fbi and nbi (philippines) and let them go to

2nd floor 1880 bldg eastwood city libis

the name of the company who handles the affinion account is THE RESULTS COMPANIES. it is being operated by mike the bald english speaking guy together with adam
