  • Accessoriesdirect.net

1/19/12

SaveMore owns this company - Accessories Direct is managed by OMV Holdings, a sister company to SaveMore.com, which is also owned by **, the CEO & founder of Credit Solutions of America and Lending.com.

Credit Solutions is facing multiple lawsuits in several states for fraud and has been banned from operating in more than one state. Lending.com owes more than $7 MILLION in back taxes.

They order their products directly from China, but the quality is very poor. Although they advertise their product is sterling silver, most of the jewelry is packaged as "Fashion Jewelry" and changes color quickly. Quality is not as advertised, but you are unable to contact either company for a refund or explanation.

Order at your own risk. They have a history of scamming their consumers, so I would be careful with your credit card information and email address (since you can't unsubscribe)

Love Love Love this site! It's my first stop when I am looking for gifts - I can also find the perfect idea for someone and save money.

Only down side is that occasionally, I find so many good deals that I can easily spend more than I intend unless I have will power!

I earn airlines miles and hotel points for filing out surveys. Surveys are easy, very rarely time consumer and provide an easy way to help me earn a few hundred miles/points to help me get a reward ticket.

  • Onlinegifts.net

SaveMore owns this company - Online Gifts is managed by OMV Holdings, a sister company to SaveMore.com, which is also owned by Doug Van Arsdale, the CEO & founder of Credit Solutions of America and Lending.com.

Credit Solutions is facing multiple lawsuits in several states for fraud and has been banned from operating in more than one state. Lending.com owes more than $7 MILLION in back taxes.

They order their products directly from China, but don't order enough/at all until after the deal has run, so people are left waiting for months for their product to arrive.

  • FootSmart

I've had god luck finding shoes online - I have really small feet, so it's always nice to have a company that carries smaller shoe sizes.

I've only had to return one pair, and they took care of it right away. I also appreciate that they are affiliated with coupon and cash back websites, so I can save even more money.

They order their products directly from China, but they're very poor quality. Although they've had a recall on their remote controlled helicopter, it's impossible to get in touch with either SaveMore or Gadget Gear for a refund. Neither company responds to emails or phone calls, and if you ask about their recall on their Facebook pages, your comment is deleted, and you may be banned from posting again.

  • Amazon

I did most of my holiday shopping on Amazon since I don't live anywhere close to my family. All the gifts were gift wrapped and delivered directly to their door and I didn't have to worry about a thing.

I also love my Kindle, so I'm a frequent shopper. Whether accessories or e-books, I can always find exactly what I need, and I trust the reviews, so I know exactly what to expect when I receive it.

The only problem I've had with Amazon was taken care of immediately - they refunded my money for the defective item within a few days. Highly recommend - I really appreciate their customer service.

Thanks to Flyertalk and it's forum of helpful travel enthusiasts, I was able to book 3 business class tickets to Ireland in July for less than $800 each through mileage runs, great deals and applying to a credit card (which I needed any way).

It doesn't really get much better than that.

  • ShopAtHome

I really like the cash back portion of the site, but I hate the toolbar! Would be awesome to be able to visit the site without having to download anything to access half of it... especially since most of the coupons can be found on other sites.

However - I still really like their cash back guarantee, so I keep using them for online purchases.

  • SaveMore

1/18/12

SaveMore.com is owned by Doug Van Arsdale, the CEO and founder of Credit Solutions & Lending.com.

Credit Solutions is facing lawsuits nationwide for fraud and has been banned from operating in more than one state. Lending.com owes more than $7 MILLION in back taxes.

SaveMore's sister company, OMV Holdings, owns the majority of the companies that don't deliver products, including Accessories Direct, Beauty Bargains, Eco Worthy (TheVaseStore, WaterBottle.bz, Reuseable Bags), Educate Me, Fabulous Nails, Gadget Gear, Home Decor, Live Healthy, Live Thin, Power Bands, Slap Gear, Your Bright Smile, Online Gifts, but if you post this on their Facebook wall, they'll ban you from posting.

SaveMore also doesn't pay the legitimate sites they feature - at least 13 merchants have reported that they haven't been paid for their deals. SaveMore has ignored all BBB complaints from these companies, emails and phone calls.

SaveMore comes from a line of companies that scam its consumers. SaveMore doesn't respond to customer's emails/phone calls, so they are better off getting a refund by initiating a chargeback to their credit card. Filing with the FTC & TX attorney general may not be a bad idea either.

  • Waterbottle.bz

1/18/12

This company is managed by OMV Holdings, a sister site for SaveMore.com. SaveMore sells the voucher but never delivers products. After waiting 4 months for my water bottles that I never received and more than 6 weeks for a refund from SaveMore.com, I contacted my credit card, the FTC, the BBB and the TX Attorney General.

Only after I did all of that did SaveMore & WaterBottle respond to my 50+ emails. They never returned any of my calls.

When I posted this on their Facebook walls, I was banned from posting. Sketchy companies.
