Scholastic

Patti of Paradise, CA November 12, 2007

I purchased some Scholastic books through school for my child, not knowing this was a Club. After receiving the initial order (which I paid for), I received a package at home addressed to my child. It seems we were now signed up for this club. Along with the magazine, there was an invoice. At that point, I contacted Scholastic to find out why we received this package and why there is a bill. They said it was a club and each month we would receive more junk. I said no, cancel this right away. The following several months we continued to receive more junk from Scholastic. I called them again and was told there was no record of my canceling this club. I have not received anything since my last phone call to them, but now I am being pursued by a collection agency.

I believe this is now on my credit report via North Shore Agency, Inc. (collection agency). This is not fare business practice on Scholastic's part.

My daughter received a Clifford the Big Red Dog ride-on toy by Scholastic as a gift. This toy is dangerous as both my daughters (ages 4 and 1) would flip off the toy forward VERY easily and fall face forward on the floor. Also, the ears of the dog can pinch little fingers. (FYI other ride-on toys they have do not have this problem).
