Immediately after subscribing to reelzhot.com I tried cancelling the subscription. Now I can't even get in touch with them to do so where it states in the fine print that cancellations can only be done over the phone and that they're available 24 hours, 7 days a week. Who are these people and why are they getting away with ripping people off!?
I signed up for a free trial while I was on another website, and the ad popped up. The email they sent confirmed no cost, but the small print at the bottom (which I never saw at the time) says they will bill $50/month after the 5 days. Who would pay that anyway to stream movies or play games?
A right rip off.
I have been charged since May 2015 $49.95 onto a British credit card so have also been charged a non-sterling transaction fee. I never signed up for this website, never received a single email about a trial or a subscription, have never used the website to download, stream or view anything! TOTAL SCAM & definitely illegal.
Customer service diabolical, when I phoned they offered to 'Cancel my account' (which i never opened) and when I demanded to speak to management I was told they only work from 2am and that they would call me. No phone call, no response to emails, nothing!
Disgraceful!
I would like to cancel my account because I did not sign up for it and I am seeing deductions coming out of my account. Please refund my money as soon as possible. If you check your records you will see that I do not use your site.
Hello
My latest bank statement shows money has been withdrawn for services that I never have agreed to purchase - I only activated a lifetime membership in case it would be interesting to use any of these in the future. This was done through a website that popped up and offered a lifetime membership that is garanteed at no charge (for 0 $) and has a status of VIP.
How can I get my money back that is being withdrawn from my account? Terminating my account and CC is not an option.
Please help
Thank You
Tom
I saw an ad on Facebook, and stupidly signed up for $1. It was for pokie games etc. 800 spins for a $1. My bank statement showed (deducted straight away) ccwizwire.com (800) 944 for the amount of $51.42. I will be going to see my Solicitor, and make this well known to as many people as possible. I want my money back NOW!
I tried to get live streaming sport from this site of which they advertised and every time I clicked a sport it sent me to movie channels or gambling sites. I Never hired a movie or gambled got nothing from their site. Nowhere did I read that I had 5 days to cancel and couldn't find were to get back to them anyway. I didn't realize I was paying until I saw for 2 months they were withdrawing $75 from my bankcard.Ive been had Bank cant even stop the payments I have to cancel my card and reapply which is great as Im traveling overseas for 3 mths. Thanks for nothing Reelzhot.

I received a charge on my credit card from reelzhot.com. I had never heard of this website. I went to the site and found the phone number. When I called them, they kept asking for my name, zip code and credit card number. I gave them the last 4 of my credit card number and my name. They could not find my account (BECAUSE I NEVER HAD AN ACCOUNT WITH THEM) as I kept explaining to them. After being conveniently "disconnected" twice, the third guy was just as much help (-_-). They kept saying that they would not be able to assist me without my credit card number and zip code. So I just hung up. I had to call my bank and have them blocked. After reading the reviews I am glad I did that before I got a 60 dollar charge.
Stay away from this site at all costs! They're sleazy, unscrupulous liars. It's all BS that your credit card won't be charged. That's a total lie. They even charge you to cancel the "free" membership. These scumbags should be shut down and put out of business. I hope everyone involved in this scam gets ripped off in the same way they rip others off.
I have never signed up with this company at all, yet going through my bank statements I have found 3 charges from them. Two of the charges have occured in the last week & a half for $66.45.
I will be going through the rest of my statements more thorough to see if there has been any other withdrawals from my account & I will be wanting every penny repaid. I am on an Invalid Pension & cannot afford to support myself let alone criminals.
How they got my card details is beyond me. Rest assured I will be taking this matter further so that no other person has to suffer at the hands of these scumbags. It will become a police matter now.
I have just noticed a withdrawal from my account from you after signing up for a Free Account to stream tv. I've been scammed like many others posting here! How do we get our money back?
There was no warning of membership fee until you see it on your credit card bill. (may be somewhere in the middle of small print).
When you visit the site: guess what! The first FAQ and its answer is as pasted below:
We don't have long-term contracts or signup fees, however, all charges are non-refundable. Simply cancel your membership and you will not be charged in the future.
These people are rip offs. Took time to download show, then it asked me to set up an account, then it asked for my credit card information, promising over and over again it wouldn't charge it. Then it declines me, because guess what, they sent a charge through. And then when I call I'm told it is only a five day free trial, which it never states anywhere on the screen, only endless promises of not charging! These guys should be shut down.
Tried to take money from my credit card but it never got it! Keep clear of this lot.
I emailed them to ask why it tried for money when it says its only for id to have the 5 day trial. I sent the email on 6th feb but no reply but today i said i would tell trading standards if they didn't get in touch by tommorow, well hey presto i got an email back within hours!
The address is, *******@reelzhot.com
I never signed onto this service but somehow they got hold of my debit card number and at first took $1.37US and them came back for $67 aprrox two times. I onlt keep a few dollars in that account to keep it active. But I don't know whether it was REALLY this service or someone hijacking it to scam ppl.
Two months later I had another hit on my debit card for $1,57 then two hits for $79,95 which was declined. This time it was from mediaeel.com. Had Www at the front and Mediaeel.Com. I goggled it and got a website which I will write out explanation rather than the website as it stands because you go directly to their site and they are trying to configure your PC. The responsible party for this scam is. Nginx spacbar on spacebar Debian!.
This site needs to be investigated because they are stealing money over the internet.
They offer a free 5 day membership to watch movies immediately. First they do not have every movie that comes up on their search. Secondly, they automatically set you up for a $50 a month renewal after the 5 days and if you want to cancel before that $50 charge kicks in they charge $. 95. They say they need the credit card number to set up the free account in case you rent a movie beyond the free time. What a crock.
I have no idea how they got on my computer, all I did was click on a news reel on ninemsn and it popped up, i closed it straight away, but it now pops up every three minuets with out fail and slows down my computer insisting I sign up... I rang the number no answer, I am about to email them and just ask politely how to get their $#*!ing annoying bombardment stuipid thing off my freaking computer.
Like I said I was on a ninemsn site
I went to the site to watch what was offered as a free movie and fell for the ploy htat they needed my card info to verify age... I know, dumb. I don't even think I watched the movie because the site was so user unfriendly. I didn't notice the charge of 50.45 until the second month so I got scammed for $101 and zero movies.
This is a disgusting act of cruelty to people. Biggest scam stay away. I didn't even go through with it and cancelled the page but they still got my card number and have been charging me.
Answer: I phoned them up to complain and they refunded one months payment and cancelled the account. They will tell you that you signed up on such a date and gave them your card details. They would have taken the first payment 5 days later if you didn't cancel. I'm convinced I cancelled straight away but can't prove it. They stung me for over $150.
Answer: I can't remember the number Sue, it was a while ago now, but if you go to their website I'm sure it's there.
Answer: I went on to chat on their website and cancelled my subscription that I didn't realise i had asked for. No money back though.
