I bought two books at the same time from the DBS Books (Discount Book Sales). I now remember the offer to join "something" pop-up and remember closing it. Somehow my order got messed up and I had to reorder the second book... I actually remember reading and rejecting the membership. But they had probably already gotten me to allegedly sign up for their rip-off desquised as a "savings" program.
I began getting charges for DBS Books after that. It was also at that time that my daughter started college and was ordering books for school. So I did not notice the $19.95 charges right away. After they got almost $100.00 above the book cost they started charging only $9.95. It was 10 months before I realized I had been scammed.
I paid close to $50 bucks plus another $150 for two books. I never got an email or any confirmation during shipping so there's no electronic paper trail. It is their word against mine that I did not join their fraudulent club.
When I finally cancelled, last night, the lady said they would refund me $29.85 or the last 3 payments. That is the only email I have received and it states that it may take 2 billing cycles to complete. I am calling my MasterCard account today to make sure they get no more billings before they allegedly "refund" me.
