I got charged 3 months of $19.95 too if you just be nice to the they will give u a full refund they gave it to me
They were NOT clear in tellling me that when I purchased the book from them, it was signing me up for a $9.95/mo. Membership fee...
SCAM THEY KEEP CHARGING MY CREDIT CARD EVERY MONTH $9.95 FOR WHAT I DON'T KNOW. ORDERED A BOOK AT XMAS AND THEN THIS CHARGE STARTED SHOWING UP EVERY MONTH. BEWARE SCAMERS
The $9.95 charges to my account come under the name of BBV Discount Books. Their phone number is *******858... according to my banks records.
I bought a book an the next time I looked at my bank statement I saw a charge that I had no idea where it came from untill I googled BBV discount booksa
Never did business with this company, but somehow they stole my credit card information and started charging me $9.95 per month for some subscription. I am not even in their system. I filed a complaint with the BBB in Florida, here is the info about the BBB that handles this and the company info with owner and E-mail address:

I, too found a book on DiscountBookSales DBS). When I entered my billing info, the next page displayed a special through Smart Savings Center (SSC). I exited the page without clicking. Today I got an email saying that my 3 day trial had 1 day to go. I did call to cancel and did receive a cancellation email back from SCC. I also received an email from DBS that my book wouldn't ship to the 20th and my card wouldn't be charged until then.
I also contacted Discovercard and was informed that my "secure card number" was already authorized for the books (no problem, as I did order the books). However, Discover agreed to immediately cancel that "secure card number" so no further charges could be placed by anyone. They also said that if the card wasn't charged in 10-days, the authorization would drop off and the charge could be cancelled.
Yes, I did email DBS to cancel the order
They charged my credit card $9.95 per month. Do no purchase a book from them.
Rip Off... I to did not know about the membership and am out 80.00!
