Girls Gone Wild has charged me over 150, even though I have called twice and told them to quit charging me and refund my money. They have done neither and still continue to charge me each month.

I ordered a video from Girls Gone Wild, and many more videos were being sent monthly after that. I sent an E-mail and called saying that I wanted the orders and the billing to stop. At this time, GGW has stopped sending videos, but VV Direct keeps on billing me and sending me videos.

I am being charged about 35 monthly for videos that I do not want.

An unauthorized 1 charge on 08/01/07 by Girls Gone Wild(GGW) appeared on my credit card statement, although I didn't notice it at first. I received a DVD package with 2 DVD's sometime around 08/24/07. I don't know who sent it, so I kept the package as it is and did not open it. I saw another charge of 26.98 in my credit card on 08/29/07. I got concerned and called the 800-689-3666 number provided by my credit card activity. They said some marketing company made the order. GGW cancelled my account (which I did not create), asked me to return the videos and they will refund the amount in 3-4 weeks. I called the marketing company (866-380-7147) and left a message. But they did not call me back. Then after 3 or 4 tries I talked to them. Neither the phone company or GGW will accept blame. I think both the companies are cheating together. I don't know where all my personal information is revealed.

Around 09/24/07 I received another DVD even though I canceled my account on 09/04/2007. I was refunded 1 on my credit card on 10/19/2007, but not the 26.98. I returned all DVD's but GGW said they received only one packet. I returned both together. I asked them why they sent me the second DVD package which I canceled on 09/04/2007. I want to file a complaint on both Girls Gone Wild and the other Marketing company

I had a 26.98 charge on my credit card and spent more than 10 hours fighting with both the companies. They caused me a lot of trouble. Also the customer service people were so rude.

I received two videos from Girls Gone Wild. I did not order them and need advice on what to do. I am closely monitering my credit card statements and bank charges.
