Consumer Complaints & Reviews

I ordered one item from a television offer. The operator tried the usual pitches about signing up for this and that and many different items. I rejected all, and was offered this majorsavings.com for special savings on items from food to appliances,resturants, hotels, museums, etc. With this, you would receive other bonuses and a $25.00 Wal-Mart gift card. I never received any plan, coupons nor responded to the online redemption of the Wal-Mart gift card. However, my account was charged $24.95 for this and I have yet to received any packets of coupons or anything else. So I called the number that I was given by the operator taking the sale for the product and told me that I could call a certain number, to cancel at any time. So when I called to cancel this amazing offer, a recording politely told me that it was not a good number.

Then I receive a text message on my phone that stated for $9.99, they would locate the correct number for me. I received the original item that I ordered from the primary purchase, no problem. As a result, the bank states that I must go through the company to stop this $24.95 debit from my account since I did order from them. The complaint is obvious. The primary company had to be aware of whom they were connected to, selling these offers. I feel that they should be held responsible for knowingly working with these boiler room types of scams. I think the FCC and the primary seller should be fined or removed from television and internet sales. This began with the original order in Feb. 2011

The subject has charged my credit card account $16.95 each month for 14 months, from 08/30/2009 to 08/28/2010 for a total of $237.30. I did not authorize any such withdrawal and did not issue my card number to them. I did not purchase anything/service or request same. When I called their number I was informed that I would receive a refund application form in a few days, which was four weeks ago, and have not received any form, correspondence. e-mail or letter yet. I believe that the major savings is a rip-off boiler room operation that obtains credit card information and then preys upon the victim.

I ordered something through a television ad. I specifically told the person who took my order not to sign me up for anything else. She kept telling me how wonderful Major Savings would be for me. I had to tell her "not interested" about 5 times. Guess what? I got signed up for a monthly program with Major Savings and they have made it impossible for me to cancel whatever this is. In don't even know what this company does except give discounts at certain places, like hotels, restaurants, etc. The first month I paid them only because they went directly into my PayPal account and helped themselves without my knowledge. I just caught them again this month trying to get paid for something I don't want and never ordered. I've never received anything from them either. No coupons, no emails, a big fat nothing which sounds like a great scam to me. But it gets even better.

I found an 800 number to call to cancel my unwanted and never ordered membership. It's a recording, big surprise! They ask for your 8 digit ID number that they give you. They list it in the PayPal charge. When their recording asked me to enter my ID number, which I did, the recording told me it was an invalid number. Then it said if you'd like to leave a call back number, we will return your call with a 24 hour business day period. This is astonishing! I left my number twice and they've never called me back. I sent an affidavit to PayPal requesting them to put a stop payment on this foolish membership of nothing. It seems to me this is a scam. How can this company get away with this sort of thing? I cannot even begin to describe how angry I am at this point. I cannot use my PayPal account because if I put money into it, Major Savings will continue to help themselves. I cannot use my checking account either because if money is not it PayPal, they will go right to my checking account to see if it's there and once again they'll help themselves. It will continue month after month and I want it to stop.
