Ziinga

Tried to email regarding the fact it did not say anything about entering into a contract… I received an email about 5 hours later stating "Included with this payment, you will receive a 7-day Platinum membership for FREE. Once the free days expire, normal monthly charges of A$89.99 will apply. The membership clause is stated within the receipt we sent after you have completed the transaction." its not until after you have given your details and made a purchase do they tell you its $89.99 a month for 3 months with a $53.00 early cancellation fee… joke.

Please stay AWAY from this site. They book you up to a three month Platinum m embership then keep charging your credit card. My visa bank stopped my card and issued us with new cards. Now ziinga after sending a letter with a photo of our house, which I feel is rather threatening are saying they are going to put the matter into the hands of a debt collector. I am seeking legal advice on the matter and will put the matter to what ever authorities I am advised to. Please don't get caught like me. This is the first time I have been on one of these sites and it will most certainly will be the last.

This is a complete and total scam.

It starts off by letting you bid on items. If you win an item, it lets you pay for the item and sign up. What it doesnt tell you is that you should read the terms and conditions. In the terms and conditions, they charged us $89.99 Australian for a three month subscription, even though we never agreed to anything. They get away with this because it is in the terms and conditions, which everyone neglects to read. So we wanted to cancel our account, which would have cost us $53. You know what we did? Before they charged a single thing to the credit card, we cancelled the card. Its an extremely gruelling process to cancel your Ziinga account.

My advice to you all is to CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARD IMMEDIATELY.

I hope this helps you all, it saved me from paying heaps of money for things I did not agree

I signed up to this won something and put my card details in but it declined as I entered the wrong ones then I looked up at reviews afterwards ( should of done before) and my card details didn't save as I got an email afterwards asking me to pay for the item or it'll expire so I'm assuming they don't have my details or I wouldn't of got the email and as theres no funds in the acc it'll decline so nothing's been taken.

I emailed them and asked to close my acc but didn't get a response.

I think I had a lucky escape that I didn't enter my correct details!

No mention of monthly fees when you first join but when you win your first promotion or auction they state that by paying you accept their T&C and have to pay 59.99 per month if you want to cancel there is a fee for that too, plus you have to pay to bid@@@@@ DO NOT USE THE SITE YOU WILL BE OUT OF POCKET AS THEY WILL TAKE THE MONEY AUTOMATICALLY FROM YOUR CREDIT CARD@@@@@@@ YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED ITS A TOTAL RIP OFF SITE STICK TO MAD BID OR ONE OF THE OTHERS THAT HAVE FAIR BIDDING AND NO CHARGES MONTHLY@@@@@@@

JUST STAY AWAY FROM ZINGA.COM an absolute scam. THey were auctioning a Sainsbury Gift Card which I thought Sainsbury being multinational will not allow anybody defraud their brand. But ZINGA is doing it in broad day light. After finishing the auction, I soon realised, it is a kind of fruad and I emailed asking them to terminate my bid. But they are asking for copies of my creditcard and driving license or pay pay up hefty penalty charge. No legitimate business acts like that and I wonder what the cyber crime squads are doing and why Sainsbury and other big companies are taking any action. Mohammed

Boy did I goof! I didn't read the small print. I thought that this would be a cool site until I received an receipt for $149. Going against my credit card. With in 20 minutes of receiving this I was on the phone to credit card trying to stop the charge from going through. I then starting email them at their (*******@ziinga.com) email address telling them to cancel, I did not want. So far I have emailed the 7 times telling them the same thing. I will fight this charge to the end. My credit card company did give me Ziinga's phone number with is in UK. Which I won't call yet. I have used E-bay and Craigs list for years and I am extremly happy with them. I have only had one problem on E-bay, but was able to get my money back with out the hassle that I think this one is going to be…. Never will I do business with a company that is out of the USA

These guys are real ripp-offs! I had won an auction and paid for the bid and 4 weeks go by when i check on the shipment of my prize they tell me it has been forfeited because i have cancelled my membership. The problem i am having is that before i even cancelled the membership i asked one of the customer service agents if i will still receive my prize even if i cancel and they confirmed yes i will. I think they should at least refund my credit card...

Id never heard of this website before, i didnt even type it in to visit the page. All i did was to reply to a tweet i got in reply to someon e id tweeted. Anyway once id touched the tweet this caption came up on my phone telling me id won something and all i had to do was give them my email address once i did this a page came up saying i bid for a ipod and won it. They then asked for my card details, iv seen friends been riped off this way so i didnt give my card details. Two mins ago i got a email saying i have now got an account. Please what do i do i dont want an account im worried that by giving my email stuff im legaly bound to give folk money. Plz can i get some help.

Please stop if you planning to buy something from Ziinga.com, its all fraud and you will end up with nothing in your hand. They will not show you the real picture and terms and conditions untill you bid and win something. Once you have a become a successful bidder for any stuff then they gonna ask you to provide very important documents of your identity like passport and drving license copies and credit card scanned copies (front and back). They have not mentioned it in there terms and condition page and will say you to send these documents otherwsie your deal will be cancelled. Moreover they will subscribe you for platinum membership without asking which will cost you 59 pounds after the trial period expires. Dont make yourself fool and don't buy from ziinga.
