I called to cancel my subscription. Before I did this I read the reviews. The first thing I did was called my bank and blocked my debit card and ordered a new one. When i called this company I spoke with a very nice lady and asked her to cancel my membership. She said she was going to send me A $20.00 coupon and cancel my subscription. I explained to her I wanted my subscription cancelled again. She understood. Before we hung up she quickly told me she lowered to subscription to $19.99 a month. I explain to the lady on the phone I had already blocked my card and I did not give her authorization to ATTEMPT TO withdraw ANY additional money out of my account. My advice to anyone here is once you give them your credit card/debit card number block it because they will stop at nothing to charge it. I moved all my money to another account and notified the bank just in case they managed to get into my account. I believe these people work on commission only and will stop at NOTHING to gain access to your account.

Yesterday I googled "rent to own" and started looking at just one link. You had to fill out your info to ask any questions, and it cost $1 for 1 week. Before I submitted anything, I started reading the small print then googled the company name and saw lots of complaints. The complaints said they charge a dollar then $49 per month afterward and they won't give it back. I never hit submit, but before I could clear out my info fields, I was getting a phone call from Affordable Houses. I never even hit enter, never submitted anything. Today I got both an email and text. When I unsubscribed to the email, I received a message that said I was unsubscribed but it didn't cancel my membership. I called them and the woman barely let me talk. She said I'm not in her system but if I gave her my card info she could have her supervisor double check it. I told her I am NOT giving you my card number!
I thought I was safe as long as I didn't hit enter or submit. Lesson learned! Don't even type it in!

I was charged 49.60 TWICE in the same business day and the lady I talked to was hateful and said there was NO way this would have happened because they're not allowed to charge you twice in the same day. Also said they wouldn't give a refund because it was in the "fine print" that they do not issue refunds.So don't waste your time(:

Was not happy with the service. I cancelled the same day and they still charged me $49.50. Even after I sent proof of my cancellation. No one ever contacted me back not even to say they were going to to give me a refund or anything. WOW!

Tip for consumers:
I asked for a refund the same day and they still charged me the next month $49.50. Even after I sent them all the proof they never send a refund or an explanation. These people are a total SCAM.

Don't give any info to this fraud company. COMPLETE SCAM
Charge $1 trial then BOOM $49.60 charge... to get a credit from this scam operation you must wait for an email, print it, fill it out, fax or mail... then wait 7-10 business days for THEIR people to decide on whether you can get a credit... INSTANT CHARGE ON YOUR ACCOUNT... WAIT, WAIT, WAIT FOR MONEY BACK. SAVE YOURSELF TROUBLE AND DO NOT SIGN UP AT ALL.

Heads up! $50 a month for this site with horrible customer service. I just called to cancel as I didn't know I'd be charged that amount to view. And she would not refund let alone take a no I want to cancel for an answer. She was SO pushy, interrupting, and kept offering items one me. Don't use! Just get a realtor or a FREE site.

Products used:
I don't even think she told me the refund policy. She was too busy pushing product on me and rejecting a refund. Very rude and desperate to have me keep the account at $50 a month!

I got signed up for this website somehow illegally and they claimed it was all shown on their webpage. I was looking up info on rent to own. They charged my account even using an old debit card that I no longer have working which is super shady and two it takes them 7-10 days to even consider the refund which is also shady and they wouldn't give me an email with that info.

These losers have progressed from being a real estate scam to scamming peoples debit cards directly. I've never made a purchase with them before in my life and suddenly I was hit with a $50 charge because they didn't think I'd notice.

Tip for consumers:
They are scammers!!

Where did these people come from?!?!? Never authorized their $49.60 charge... so random... it took 3 months to figure out they hit & run my CC.

Had to CANCEL a 'membership' I never signed up for... AGAIN... how did they find me?!? I never recieved any emails notifying me of their supposed Services and I've yet to hear back from them about a REFUND request (of course).

Tip for consumers:
Beware of unauthorized charges to Credit Card!

I signed for the trial and cancelled immediately. Then they charged me full price later on along with a charge from Libiyi which I have no clue what this is supposed to be for. Stay away from this company. I don't know. How they even qualify for a.org status.

Tip for consumers:
Don't try it. It's a ripoff.

Products used:
Nothing. Once I tried the free trial I discovered that it was more and more predatory junk. I asked for my money back but haven't heard anything yet. I also got a mysterious charge from Libiyi, whatever that is, at the exact same time. IDK how frauds like this can operate out in the open like this.

Lexington Law is associated with this bogus service. So in order to get the listing you have to agree to some type of service, If you don't know no anything about your credit file. I did not obtain services, so I was emailed a link to properties but the link sent me

Tip for consumers:
Know what's in your credit file before contacting these people. The law firm is what this solicitation is all about.

None, there were no actual properties to view!

After they get you to register to view the listings they are no longer intersted in offering services. Luckily, the card I used was a gift card so they will be unable to process any additional fees. Such a scam!

They took $40/no for the last 3 months to find out that rent to own properties don't really exist on this site! Every realtor called saying not rent to town even though the site says that they are. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY! And they refuse to take NO AND CANCEL for an option and harass you into discount pkgs. DONT BOTHER TO SIGN UP! ITS A SCAM. AND I AM REPORTING THIS TO THE BBB AS WELL! SCAMMERS FOR YOUR MONEY IS THE REAL NAME OF THIS COMPANY!

I didn't even finish signing up and I already knew this was a scam. As soon as I submitted my phone number, I recieved a call from a lady. She tells me to hurry up and finish filling out the rest of my info so they can send me the listings, but before I could even respond to her, she hung up. I did not finish filling out the rest of my info but I started getting all kinds of real estate marketing spam through text messages. Stay clear from these marketing spammers.

If you call them, they will literally harass you with multiple calls from various different phone numbers daily! I have told them to stop calling me. I told them they are harassing me. They laughed at me. They continue to call daily and several times. I have blocked about 40 different numbers from them!

Complete SCAM. I didn't pay and clicked out but they keep calling me and I told them to stop and that I was at work but she was like just wait- we can get ypou a house! And transferred me to some Lexington Law guy. He told me he will fix my credit and I told him there is nothing wrong with my credit OR my score- just that I didn't have money for a downpayment on a house. He said VERY RUDELY " well there must be something wrong with your credit or they would not have sent you to me" so I hung up and blocked them.

This is clearly a site not to help anyone get in a home the pretend to care with a quick call and tell u to sign up to a credit fix company, then they send you all these affiliates to where they get paid overtime you sign up to one of the so call available houses website which will always lead to a 7 day free trial and then a monthly fee.
There is never anyone you can talk with and dont depend on anyone to call and truly help,

I came across the site and started to browse houses in my area, one of them I recognized instantly from the photo, it was one my wife and I were interested in 7 months ago but sold before we could look at it. The ad stated it was a multi-family 4-5 bedroom with 3 baths, it isn't, its a single family, 4 bedroom, bath and a half, and not for sale. The current owner is in the process of restoring the house and carriage house in the back.

I sign up for rent to own. The listings I got were for North Carolina. I live in South Carolina and I could not change the city so 2 days later I canceled the account. Then 3 weeks later they charged my account. I called after four attempts to reach them someone finally answered the phone. They are only going to give me 25 dollars back in four days. If I want the full amount then my request for my money it will be sent to legal. So basically I wasted my money and time on a site that will take your money and not have the correct information nor access to what you're looking for. Rent to own is a scam!
