I have always turned to Oriental Trading Co. For great, inexpensive products that add a nice touch to school, scout, and church events. Almost always happy with the products I receive and that holds true today. HOWEVER...I had recently read other reviews about a "Fun Rewards +" Scam, where you are discretely signed up at check out and charged a monthly fee of $14.95. So, I was very careful through my check out process looking for this, and felt confident that I avoided the scam, or...that the reviewers experiences were just isolated. Today, I received a "Fun Rewards" check in the mail for $7 and thankfully, due to others reviews, knew exactly what it was. I called the company, and it turns out I have been charged monthly since March...8 months. I asked where the proof was that I signed up, and they said I checked off Free Shipping, and with that came a 30 day free trial of Fun Rewards that after 30 days, it turns into a charged membership. Company policy is that they can give me a 6 month refund. So I am still out two months. What kind of a rewards program charges you to get the reward? So Fraudulent and I am disgusted with a company I once trusted.
