Timeline of Events:
On March 8, 2025, I discovered an unauthorized $10 charge on my credit card from BOSS REVOLUTION, despite not having used their service since December 2024. At that time, I had a balance of $6.89 remaining in my calling account.
First Incident:
I contacted BOSS REVOLUTION about the March charge. Their response stated:
The auto-renew for "Toll Based DTC Plan" was cancelled
Their policy only allows refunds within 3 days of purchase
They claimed the plan was now cancelled as of March 17, 2025
Second Incident:
On May 8, 2025, BOSS REVOLUTION charged my card another $10. When I demanded a refund, they:
Only refunded my existing $6.89 balance from December
Claimed I had subscribed to a "Saving Pass Per Minute Plan" costing $5, which was deducted from the $10 charge
Failed to explain the remaining $5 balance
My Complaint:
I never authorized these charges or subscribed to any plan
I have not used their service since December 2024
Despite claiming to cancel my plan in March, they charged me again in May
They've only refunded my existing balance, not the unauthorized charges
They've failed to account for the full amount charged to my card
I am requesting a full refund of all unauthorized charges ($20 total) and immediate termination of any alleged subscriptions associated with my account.Business Response

Hello *************
Thank you for reaching out and sharing these details. We understand your concerns and appreciate your patience while we looked into your account.
In 2025, we found two $10 transactions on your account. A refund of $6.99 was issued on May 8, 2025, and today, we've processed two additional refunds—one for $3.11 and another for $10. These refunds cover the full $20 in charges you mentioned.
We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused by the charges or plan renewals. Please be assured that all active subscriptions have now been cancelled, and no further charges will be made to your card.
If you need any additional help or have further questions, feel free to reach out to us at ************************.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to resolve this.

I had landline service with IDT several years. I terminated it on 8/13/2024 because I was getting 20 telemarking calls a day and could not stop them. I was told I had a credit $11.91. I requested a refund check. I was told I would receive it in ***** days. I called again on 2/28/2025. I was told the check was lost in the mail. They said they would send another refund check. I waited another 60 days, and no check was received. That is my money, and I want it.Business Response

On 03/17/2025, at 1041 ET, I bought MTN credit of $10 to my wife in ***** onto her number *************. Confirmation number for that transaction is *******************. When she did not receive the credit, I contacted BOSS Revolution, (IDT) and they gave me a case number ******* as they investigate the case. I followed up and they gave me 2 reference numbers, from *** after their investigation ********* and *****************. My wife went to *** office with these 2 reference numbers but *** claimed they did not find them in their system. I have contacted *** several times, even with the Investigated team. *** investigation team finally told me, they never received any transaction from IDT after checking in their system, so I should contact Boss Revolution, IDT to solve the situation. As at now, my wife has not received any MTN credit because Boss Revolution, took the money but never bought the credit from *** to credit my wife. All attempts to get this resolved with Boss Revolution, IDT has proved futile. They have told me, there is nothing else they can do, they cannot refund my money to me. I have been their customer for more than 5 years and they want me to loose this $10. They have taken my money without achieving the fruitful result.Business Response

I am writing to express my disappointment and frustration with the service I received from Boss Revolution regarding a top-up recharge purchase I made on November 4, 2024. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve the issue, I experienced a series of unsatisfactory interactions with the customer service team.The issue began when the recipient of the top-up recharge did not receive the credit, despite my successful payment through the Boss Revolution app. After multiple contacts with the customer service team, I was advised to wait, then to contact *********, which I did. ********* confirmed that they never received the top-up recharge.I reported this information back to Boss Revolution and was assured that I would receive a refund. However, this refund never materialized. When I disputed the transaction with my bank, they investigated and found in my favor, crediting my account with the disputed amount.Regrettably, Boss Revolution subsequently closed my account, citing the disputed amount as the reason. When I contacted the customer service team to resolve the matter, I was told that I would need to pay the disputed amount to have my account reinstated. I explained the situation, but my concerns were dismissed, and I was hung up on.Despite my repeated requests for escalation, I have yet to receive a satisfactory response or resolution from Boss Revolution. The customer service I received throughout this ordeal has been subpar, and I hope that you will take immediate action to address this matter and provide a suitable resolution.Business Response

Back in April/May 2024 we notified Net2phone our intention to cancel our contract. We diligently responded to their communication and returned the equipment accordingly. We were never notified of any issues with our return and have it in writing that we were being credited the $2000 on the last invoice they generated. Last week on January 9, 2025 we received a collection notice from Oxygen for the exact amount we have an invoice for which says do not pay on it. We have reached out to Net2phone who continually refers us to the collection agency. This was never credited to us as stated in their email. We have attempted to resolve this with them to no avail. Our resolution is for them to notify the credit agency of their error.Business Response

We were contacted by Mr. Mark S. on January 21, 2025 from the Net2phone customer success/service area. He has credited us as requested and was quite diligent in his review of our issue with the outstanding balance. He stated that he agreed it should not have gotten to this point and that we were not responsible for the invoice balance. He also stated that we now have a zero balance with Net2phone and are being credited accordingly. His time, effort, and professionalism were greatly appreciated.

I recently attempted to make a transaction with a beneficiary who was out of town. However, I have not been able to get in touch with the beneficiary and would like to cancel the transaction.

Hello ****,
I hope this message finds you well.
We're sorry to hear that you felt the need to escalate your concern through the BBB, and we apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced.
Our team has been actively trying to assist you with the issue at hand. As explained previously, the in-country payer requires specific details about the beneficiarysuch as their full name, date of birth, and place of birthbefore they can cancel the transaction. Unfortunately, this requirement is set by government regulations.
We have attempted to contact you multiple times via phone and have sent emails outlining the information needed. We made another attempt to reach you today (08/08/2024) and have followed up with an email providing the same details.
Our compliance team has confirmed that they were finally able to speak with you, but without the requested information, the payer is unable to proceed with canceling or releasing the transaction.
We understand this situation may be frustrating, and we are here to help. If there's anything more we can do to assist, please feel free to reach out to us.Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

I am rejecting this response because: I canceled the transaction, and though the name is already there, it did not ask me for the date and place of birth when I sent it. It did not specifically mention in a clear statement that I needed that information when I sent the money. In short, please refund my money.

We acknowledge that this was not clearly communicated at the outset, and we sincerely apologize for any oversight. Our team has been actively trying to assist you by requesting the necessary information needed for the refund process.
To move forward, we recommend providing the required information, as it is essential for processing the cancellation and refund. This is a standard procedure dictated by local regulations, which we must follow.

Hello *****,
We are sorry to read that your payment card has been compromised and possibly used to purchase our services. Payment card cloning is a massive global issue and not related solely to our business but all businesses worldwide. Bring this to our attention helps us to combat fraud quickly, unfortunately it does not eradicate it as fraudsters use extremely complex and intelligent methods to defraud not just the card owner but the businesses they use the cloned cards with, and it constantly evolves.
We will forward your complaint to the fraud department who will contact you for further information and work with you to resolve this matter quickly.
