You know those Video Professor commercials you see on tv with the bald headed prick saying "Try my product"? Well, on the commercial this crooked cocksucker says that the CD's are FREE, all that you pay is shipping and handling. Anyway, my mother was going to start selling stuff on ebay, so I got the "bright" idea to give this Video Professor a shot and order these "free" learning CD's for her so that she could learn ebay. I placed an order for the ebay lessons on the Video Professor website, and after ordering it said that my credit card would be charged only the $6.95 for the shipping. Fine. Or so I thought. Next thing I know my credit card account has a charge for the shipping and like 3 or 4 other bullshit charges on it, including a $189.95 charge for these "free" CD's! Well, I called Chase to straighten this shit out and dispute the bullshit charges on my card. They gave me some instructions on what to do, then I called Video Professor and got some information from them in order to carry out Chase's instruction. The customer service rep told me this was a 10 day trial offer, which says absolutely NOTHING about on the commercials, and that in order to get free CD's, you have to send one of them back within the 10 day period, also not mentioned in the commercials. She then told me that since I didn't know that this was a trial, they could refund me $75 and I could keep the CD's. Not good enough. I wanted 100% of my money refunded since I had been deceived by these criminals, so I told her I wanted the RMA #'s and I wanted to send everything back. Unbeknownst to me, they had also sent me another package, which I didn't order, and she happened to mention that to me as well. She told me this ebay advanced set was included with the first set of CD's, and I wouldn't be charged for them. Well, a couple of weeks go by and I have procrastinated about sending this stuff back...received a shipping label from VP to send the stuff back, and a form to fill out from Chase demanding proof and additional info and this, that, and the other. Anyway, I finally got around to mailing all this shit off, and I logged into my Chase account to make a payment and to my surprise these fucking bastards charged my account AGAIN with another $189.95 charge for the ebay advanced CD's. I got on the phone with Chase again and told them about this bullshit, and got sent another one of those forms to fill out, which I did and sent back. During all this, I've been worried that these charges wouldn't be taken off and I'd be stuck with them, an expensive lesson I thought. Today I got my credit card statement in the mail and was dreading looking at it. I opened it up, and to my surprise the charges had been taken off! Halleluyah! Best news I've had in a while...made my month!
Yes, I know, I'm a stupid, gullible fool for falling for this shit, but I just wanted to share this with everybody so that nobody else would fall for this and have to go through the hell I've gone through the past couple of months to get this shit taken off my credit card. Let the ridicule begin.
