      I am not a member of FreeShipping****. However, somehow FreeShipping charged my checking account and debited my account on 1/5/24 for $2.00, on 1/11/24 for $19.00, on 3/3/24 for $19.00 and again on 3/11/24 for $19.00. The total for these charges comes to $57.00. I tried calling their ###-###-#### number 3 times without an answer, I called their ###-###-#### number which didn’t even ring as the call was dropped and I also emailed their customer service without any response from them. I am unable to get ahold of anyone from that company and since I am not a member of their services, I want my money refunded into my checking debit account.

      I write in regard to the above referenced complaint submitted to your office by Ms. ******. We regret any confusion or inconvenience she experienced when doing business with our company and trust that this letter will address her concerns.   
      Our records show that on January 4th, 2024, after making an online purchase, Ms. ****** was presented with an ad banner promoting our FreeShipping**** program. Ms. ****** clicked on the banner and arrived on our order registration page, which provided full details about our money saving membership program and how she can try the program for 7 days at the trial fee of $2.00. The terms on that page, titled “Offer Details,” explained that if she did not cancel her subscription by the end of the trial, her subscription would automatically continue and the monthly subscription fee would be charged to the credit card account that she provided. 

      Our records show that she completed the registration process by providing her full contact and account information and checking a box that states “I agree to the Offer Details and the Terms of Use & Service” just below the offer terms. Shortly thereafter we sent Ms. ****** a welcome e-mail to the e-mail address she provided upon enrollment that included full information on how she can access and enjoy her program benefits and reiterating the program billing terms. 

      Ms. ******’s membership was canceled on 3/12/24 and has since been fully refunded for $59.00. The remaining credit will post in 2-5 business days.

      Again, we regret any inconvenience this may have caused Ms. ******.

      Apparently it started in July 2023. If found this out from the credit card company. This is a store card and I only use it at ********** which makes these charges even stranger. Freeship**** says I signed up for a trial membership which I didn't voluntarily do. I investigated the company on the internet and there was a complaint from another person who bought something on **** and it opened to this Freeship**** which they exited from without agreeing to anything but then they started being charged $13.00 a month for something they didn't know about or use. Apparently all their information was transferred from **** to pay for this bogus membership. I also use **** and might have purchased something. I didn't know about the membership and because I was unaware of the signup or billing, I never used it. I'm being charged $19.00 a month. The credit card company is disputing the charge but I thought I should report the scam to you as it is mostly likely happening to other people

      I had no idea I had a membership since 2020 and was getting charged for a service I never used. Not only was I not aware of the membership they also never emailed me about renewing a yearly subscription or even to tell me about the services that they provide and there was zero communication. Apparently, I signed up for a trial with a *** **** *** ****** purchase and never cancelled my subscription that I was not aware I had. The only reason I know this information is. because the agent told me it. When I called yesterday to cancel the customer service agent would only refund 4 months, I should be refunded for the 4 years. I have been getting charged $16 a month for a service I never even used or was made aware of it.

      On February 28, 2024, I became aware that freeshipping**** had been billing my bank account $19/month for 13 months. I never recall signing up. I have no emails from them thanking me for my new or old subscription. I never utilized their service. I never intended to ever utilize their service. I have no need of their service. I spoke to them. They will refund up to $76. I believe they owe me $247 in total. They refuse to repay more than $76 of the funds they siphoned from my bank account. In conversation with their representative, LoriSue and her supervisor, Deja, they agreed that they had removed $19/month for 13 months. I would like all of that money returned. They claim that I checked a box for freeshipping****, recieved a 7-day free trial and then did not cancel it by the end of the free trial. And so, they commenced to removing $19/month for the past 13 months. Now that I caught them, they need to stop removing funds and return all they have wrongfully taken. I have never used their services a single time. I do not need their services and would never knowingly sign up for their services.

      This is the most fraudulent company of all time. They told me they were closing my account two years ago because only one household can have an account. I find out today that they’ve been charging me for the past two years. I checked my account randomly today and they not only never closed it, they are still charging! This is a service that, according to their own records, I have not used since October 2022! So, apparently, I’m getting charged twice by them, one for the account my sister has and one for one that should’ve been deleted. Oh, but I was told only one account per household. Apparently you don’t have a problem taking money twice from one household. If y’all don’t fix this, I’m disputing everything on both accounts. Outrageous.

      Our records indicate that on September 3rd, 2023. Ms. ***** joined our FreeShipping**** membership program (“Program”) that offers cash back on eligible purchases as well as other member benefits.
      Upon signing up for the Program, Ms. ***** had to agree to the Program Terms of Service (*********************************************). Ms. *****’s claims for purchases on 12/8/23 and after were denied and Ms. *****’s membership was closed due to multiple purchase reporting as returned. The Terms of Service state: By joining FreeShipping**** and accessing your benefits, you give FreeShiping**** permission to review your account with participating stores whenever we suspect fraudulent or inappropriate activity.
      After a review of the membership, we are unable to reinstate this membership due to violation of our Terms of Service.
      The last five membership fees of $20.00 were refunded, totaling $100.00 back to the card on file.

      I was in the middle of a transaction with the company, **** * ***, when FreeShipping pops up on the screen. The next thing I know is that they took out two amounts of $19.00 and another amount of $2.00. I have NO IDEA of what the company does and nor do I need or want their product. I have written to them unsuccessfully. It is not about the money as it is abut the fact that I hate scammers and want it to stop. I believe they were able to use my information through the transaction I had with **** * ***. IT IS SO WRONG! I want them shut down. If you go to their website and click onto "Reviews", it is an empty page. SCAMMERS!

      This company is a scam. I noticed on my ****** a suspicious automatic withdrawal. When I went to check this out, I saw that this company started taking first small amounts, then progressively bigger amounts monthly from my account, adding up to $200 within an entire year for some sort of subscription. I never signed up for this!! After doing research, I discovered that many people have been scammed by them. When you make a purchase on a shopping website, a pop-up comes up that makes you think that it is associated with your purchase, for a free shipping. That's how they get hold of your ****** and scam you into this "subscription". I contacted them and they gave me the runaround, claiming that they can't find my account. Then I got a cancelation to an old email. If they couldn't find my account, then how did they cancel and sent me an email? They are just doing this to avoid giving me back the money they stole from me. I have ****** screen shots to prove all this.

      I never subscribed to your service. I would have never willingly subscribed to a service I would never have the use for. Your company is tricking people into this bogus subscription by shady practice! 

      However, you did send a refund of the money you took out of my ****** after giving me the runaround and lying about not being able to locate my account and asking me for personal information which I wasn't about to give you. (looks like you've managed to locate it just fine after I threatened with a lawyer!). 

      So as far as I'm concerned, this case is now closed, as I got my refund. But consumer beware of this company when shopping online, and check your ****** and credit cards carefully!

(looks like you've managed to locate it just fine after I threatened with a lawyer!). 

      So as far as I'm concerned, this case is now closed, as I got my refund. But consumer beware of this company when shopping online, and check your ****** and credit cards carefully!

      Your membership has been canceled and fully refunded. Sorry for the confusion, please allow me to clarify further. First, we never bill an account without authorization. When you signed up, the terms of the offer were displayed, and you are required to accept them in order for registration to be complete and your membership active.

      These terms are displayed in the enrollment process on the second page of the form, they are displayed on the new member welcome page, and send a third time in the welcome email. We also ask a security question and you must provide a password along with all other billing info to ensure that you are aware of the program you are registering for.

      Again, we do apologize for any inconvenience.

      I write in regards to the above referenced complaint submitted to your office by Ms. ******. We regret any confusion or inconvenience she experienced when doing business with our company and trust that this letter will address her concerns.     
      Our records show that on January 3rd, 2024, after making an online purchase on Petco.com, Ms. ****** was presented with an ad banner promoting our FreeShipping.com program. Ms. ******
      clicked on the banner and arrived on our order registration page, which provided full details about our money saving membership program and how she can try the program for 7 days for $2.00. The terms on that page, titled “Offer Details,” explained that if she did not cancel her subscription by the end of the trial, her subscription would automatically continue and the monthly subscription fee would be charged to the credit card account that she provided.   

      Our records show that she completed the registration process by providing her full contact and account information and checking a box that states “I agree to the Offer Details and the Terms of Use & Service” just below the offer terms. Shortly thereafter we sent Ms. ****** a welcome e-mail to the e-mail address she provided upon enrollment that included full information on how she can access and enjoy her program benefits and reiterating the program billing terms.   

      Ms. ****** contacted us on 1/10/2024 to cancel her account. We have issued a full refund of the $2.00 trial fee and the $19.00 membership fee. This remaining credit will post in 2-5 business days.

      Again, we regret any inconvenience this may have caused Ms. ******.
