When inquiring about AT&T mobile hotspot services that have no data caps, I was told by a man named Dakota who worked there, that the plan that met these standards was 65 dollars per month. I agreed to pay 65 dollars per month for this service. Upon returning less than 1 month later to pay my bill, i was informed that the price had increased to 140 dollars due to charges and activation fees that I was NOT notified about before the initial subscription. They seem to have blatantly lied to me. The chanrges and fees were NOT disclosed.
This isn't the first time i've heard of similar things happening to people around this area.

The Benjamin App gives you games and they pay you for doing tasks, I have finished tasks and they don't pay for them, they offer you money to invest in the games and they don't pay for them, you talk to customer services and they don't fix anything about the problem, there are many people complaining about the same thing, I am waiting for my tasks to be paid to close the app, I have not been able to close it because I have money in my balance and I cannot withdraw it.

Please please please investigate how minorities are treated during customer service situations. Minorities get horrible, lack luster, not up to par customer service on a regular basis and it is totally excepted. When I get different customer service because of my background and then try to complain, I am given even worse treatment. I see Caucasian people get treated way more respectfully in a customer service situation. I feel like as a minority the customer service industry gives me NO VOICE. I am completely ignored unless I'm being followed. My complaints are NEVER taken with any seriousness or care. I can guarantee you I am not the only person that feels this way. I am about to investigate this myself, and then find a lawyer that takes this seriously enough to sue. I'm positive there are statistics that would back up my complaint.

Scammer's website HelpIdo CountryUnited States Victim LocationAL 36580, USA Total money lost$39 Type of a scamOther
It went in as a subscription that HelpIdo charged my account thru PayPal. PayPal said it was authorized and verified by me on September 12, 2024. I have no record of this and I could find nothing on the previous statement. I tried to contact the company but they had no record or info I could log onto. I contacted pay and tried to resolve and they refunded but then charged my bank and I sent further info and my bank was refunded. But only after PayPal insisted that I made this but I did not. I changed my passwords on my PayPal as well as on my email and requested that they not send any more money to this entity. On the internet it shows as scammers because I also had someone else look them up and that is what they also found. The site has no contact info to call.

Multiple mail letters have been sent to my house, addressed to me (homeowner) from this company saying "IMPORTANT ENERGY UPDATE CONFIRMATION REQUESTED" and "SECOND ATTEMPT" as if it's a bill from my electric company (PECO). It confirms PECO as the utility company and looks like a bill, however it is looking for me (the homeowner) to authorize this company to take over electric distribution to my home, creating a new customer in the process.

The scammer sent me a "FORM 5102 Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" to "Complete the form below and return, make check or money order payable to: Annual Records Service" The check was for $119. Claiming that if I didn't pay them by "10/23/202" (yes this is how they wrote the date) I could face civil penalties of up to $500 for each day that the violation continues. In addition, I could be fined up to $10,000 and/or face up to 2 years of imprisonment. At the bottom where it says Part II Signature and Payment it has a box labeled, "Sumbitter SIgnature."

This week's Ralphs ad contained several attractive Digital Deal sales. When attempting to add them in the app for use in the store, though there are several places to "clip" them, they are not added for use. So a customer may think they have taken all necessary steps to buy 5 Coca-Cola 12-packs for $25, but be charged $50 in-store. This is called a bait and switch scheme and it is illegal.

I was told id be getting 1000mbps. 3 years ago verizon fios told me i would be getting 1000mbps. 7 months in i was having trouble with my service. I called told them i wasnt getting the thousand mbps. They said my testers were wrong off my tv and my apps. They gave me a credit. I told them to lower it to 300. They only offered 2 pacages 1000 for 79 and 300 for 45 with auto pay. I was still getting billed 79. I figured they never lowered it. I just had a tech tell me cause my internet is out i only get 100 mbps. That the computer or server around me cant handle it. So i was sold on a 1000mbps when they new all along i was getting 100. That is bait and switch to the fullest. So for 3 years ive been paying for a thousand mbps and only getting a hundred

The auto sales person ran my debit card for a down payment on the card and said it did not work even though it did. He then ran a different card and kept the money from both transactions. I have reported the fraud to my bank for immediate reimbursement.

I'm writing on behalf of my grandmother who is 92. She was looking for two standard doors and two storm doors.
Doors were never installed. Had a start date 12/24 And an end date of apparently 1/24.
She found Renewal by Anderson by mail and they also advertise online.
She called the salesman, Evan, that came over while her caregiver, her son, was not home, And gladly scheduled measuring and other details while her son was not there. The salesman pressured her and gave her a sob story about needing money to pay for his wedding out of state, so he needed to sell. He sold her the doors for $33,000 and said he was going to give her a deal in getting these doors for a grand total of $26,500, and told her it was a savings of $10,000.
The salesman told her they were Custom-Made doors, But are only a standard size door That would be able to be purchased at any home improvement store.
The salesman filled out her application for credit through Greensky, And all she did was sign. My grandmother did not know what she was getting into nor signing as she has macular degeneration. She also could not remember all the details as you would expect of any 92-year-old.
After all was said and done, they charged her a partial payment immediately over $10,000.
When I found out about it, I immediately researched Renewal by Anderson. I found on reviews and social media that there were several other claims of similar situations of elders having this done to them. In my opinion this is elder abuse. I have also reached out to the elder abuse hotline and the representative very much agreed. When I contacted the salesman my grandmother was on the phone conferenced in and allowed them to speak with me. When I asked them about this outrageous cost, He just kept trying to ignore me and only spoke to my grandmother about keeping them, asking what's going on. He said he needed to confer with his managers and would get back to me and said they would be able to cancel the doors but charge her 50%, but said they would knock it down to $2,300 to get it resolved quickly. I told them that was unacceptable and and that this was elder abuse. I wanted to speak with the management team and no one ever contacted me back. Finally the salesman called only my grandmother back. Telling her that they would just need an email to cancel the doors and would just charge $2,300. Her and I wrote the email, stating that she wants the order canceled and that she does not owe anything. We did not receive any kind of response. We did contact Greensky for her loan for the doors, they immediately opened up a case and were more than helpful in getting this resolved. Especially when I told them That's the salesman filled out her credit application and everything that happened. Renewal by Anderson finally did refund the partial payment that was charged, never had any communication to us about it. The only way we found out was through Greensky. Who is doing their own investigation against Renewal by Anderson. The Greensky agent we were working with needed all the information so she could relay it to all the higher ups in their corporation.
At the end of all of this, it has only been resolved with the help of Greensky, they took care of it all, closed her account so that she has no balance due.
I believe renewal by Anderson Preys on the elderly and the Young who don't understand cost. I don't want to see this happen to more people. What they did was wrong.

Asked to take a survey about my experience with United Airlines. After the survey asked if I would like a "Free Gift" for participation. If I pay shipping and handling the product is "Free". I did receive the product but I have also been charged between $150 to $200 every 2 weeks from other companies and haven't received any products or services from said companies. Called the number listed on the credit card bill and "Michael" was not able to help me or give me the contact information for the Legal Department which I asked for several times. Told me it was a subscription service but I would not have agreed to be charged for anything like that every 2 weeks. Who would? Told me that I needed to call back with my bank or credit card company and I needed to drop my dispute before anything can be done. Also the multiple charges were not from the same company any of the times they charged my card.

BioLife falsely advertises on Facebook, in their cell phone application, and on their website. They say earn up to $850 donating plasma in their app. They also say earn up to $800 donating plasma in their app and on their website. They also say earn up to $700 in their app, on their website, and on Facebook. Which is it?! They won’t tell you until after you wait 4 hours with an “appointment” and then you’re told we can’t help you we will have to reschedule you. What kind of business is that?! That’s absolutely terrible and fraudulent false advertising. They make it sound like you’re guaranteed to get paid same time as your appointment but they don’t honor the appointments that they make. They push you to the back of the line and they let other people cut in front of you when it’s time to see their nurse for a “physical” and again when they put you back in line again. It’s ridiculous that they’re allowed to play with peoples lives and time like that. They’re not reputable. They’re not honest. They are false advertising and scamming people. Such a waste of 6 hours. Why are they allowed to do this?!

The business only accepts quarters or tap payment, there is a large sticker that says $4 but my credit card shows I was charged $10. I used my card twice and was charged $20, $12 more than what was advertised I would be charged.
