Reunion

Family members using my phone saw an ad for MyLife and, out of curiosity, enabled a withdrawal of 155.40. They did not have my physical card, nor did I provide my card number to MyLife, as I only got the card last month and had no interest in the app.

How did MyLife get my information? I filed a fraudulent activity complaint with my bank.

I was just going thru my bank statements. I noticed back on August 20,2010 there was a withdraw from my account of $119.25 and each month since there has been a withdraw of $19.95 unauthorized charges.

I have a great Attorney and will be sending this information to his just as soon as I get done typing.

This is outragious. BBB Needs to also be notified that will be another one of my get back tasks because I wont take this lying down.

How many other people haven't noticed on their bank accounts like me that this is going on? This is outlandish, and crazy.

I am very upset about a company called SAVEACE 888-593-**** CT. I just realized they have been deducting $19.95 from my credit card for the past 5 months. The only way to get rid of them is to cancel my card, which I just did. I am fortunate as my credit card company will reimburse me for the charges made by SAVEACE to my account.

They are being investigated by my credit card company but for the life of me I do not know how SAVEACE got my card number. The most probable senario is that they intercepted an online purchase I made for Christmas gifts.

Beware of this SAVEAVE and review your statements carefully.

If you sign up for MyLife or Reunion you may be inadvertently signed up for one or more savings networks. In my case it was Home Savings and Savings Essentials. In both cases I never signed up for them and was even careful to uncheck any boxes when signing up for MyLife. I contacted both vendors, requested immediate cancellation and asked each vendor for proof of application, which they were unable to substantiate.

I also contacted my bank and after discussion with the fraud department it is evident that this ploy is very active. The bank fraud analyst said she sees many of these coming by her desk and is getting an increasing number of disputes involving this exact scheme. VISA requires you to contact the vendor before disputing the payment but to all of you out there who have been duped, don't let this one stay on the shelf. Each month they are taking $20 from you.

This is a scam in which one of you smart attorneys out there can take as a class action suit!

I too have gotten robbed by these thieves for unauthorized charges to my credit card. I followed the route of others on this site to cancel them; hopefully it works..

It's unbelievable we are openly being robbed by these companies; because of loopholes in the very laws that were meant to protect consumers.

It's disgusting to think that the very people who are elected to represent the "people" of this country, are so easily corruptible that they allow this to happen time and time again. To think, I actually served to protect the very country that is continuosly finding ways to either take my honest hard earned money, or allowing ways for their constituants to do so; not to mention all the freedoms the common man is losing.

An open letter of complaint to REUNION.COM and MYLIFE.COM:

I have been a Reunion.com member for years. I just signed up for MyLife.com. Within an hour some company called SavingsAce.com sent me an email about automatically drafting money from my bank account. Information that they said they got passed from you. I am sure there is must be a check box somewhere this was authorized. But I would have never knowingly wanted you to let a third party access my financial information. It appears that thanks to whatever has happened I am going to have to spend hours going over my bank statement for months and spend no telling how many hours on the phone correcting all this.

I have been on the phone with not only your employee but also trying to find a way to get out of this SavingsAce.com thing. My worst fear is how many affiliates of yours now have my info. I've been looking on the internet and see complaints have been starting to pile up regarding this tactic. I am sure you are aware also regarding the complaints regarding your firm and the company Shopping Essentials. I can safely state this as your form letter you sent me addressed Shopping Essentials, not Savings Ace.

Please evaluate whether the revenue generated is worth the negative connotations for your company. I loved your product for years, but I feel as if my back is against the wall and I may have to cancel my premium memberships simply to protect the access to my bank account. I am also posting alerts regarding this at pissedconsumer.com, complaintsboard.com, myspace.com and any other consumer protection venues I can locate to spare as many unsuspecting people the hassle I have gone through recently.

An Open letter to unaware consumers:

Apparently there was some check box or something that I overlooked when I signed up for MyLife.com (formerly Reunion.com) that allows their "affliliates" to have access to your credit / debit information. I got an email from Savingsace.com that said the were going to start debiting my bank account. After spending time on the phone with MyLife (who had an "Oh well you must have authorized it attitude) and doing research I have located a toll-free 888-593-**** at Savingsace.com to cancel your membership.

At first they ask for your membership number, telephone number, and creditcard number followed by the # sign. (YEAH RIGHT...I sure wasn't about to give them my phone number and credit card number again) I only entered the membership number and then the # sign. It took me to a menu to cancel. It said to hit a number to cancel and seemed to accept it. (We'll see!) In my recent research I have also found past complaints of companies like Classmates.com using this same system.

I also have been emailing the reunion.com / mylife.com people to complain about their association with this company. I can't believe that ultimately the revenue they might be getting for referrals is worth this bad press.

Call to action: If you have been bitten unknowingly by this type of auto-debit of your bank accounts please post your bad experience at complaintsboard.com, pissedconsumer.com, and notify any appropriate regulatory / rating bureaus.

I will update the list of sites and info I uncover on them as it becomes available. Remember these services typically make it near impossible to give you an easy avenue to cancel, find an email address to complain, and near impossible to find a live person to talk to.

Some companies so far I have identified using this tactic:

PMIdentity.com

foodandflix.com

yoursavingsclub.com

Savingsace.com (may show up on your bill as AP9 Savings Ace) - Cancellation number 888-593-****

homesavingsma.com

shopping-essentials.com (may show up on your bill as AP9 ShoppingEssentials, IK9 Shopping Essentials) - Cancellation number 888-999-****

I am so angry. I am overdrawn in my checking account because of the fact this company gave my financial info to other companies without my knowledge.

How dare they do that in this age of identity theft because that is what this is. I can't get in touch with them. I have no idea how many companies will start billing me. I am going to have many phone calls trying to sort this out.

I am also going to contact a lawyer to see if i can sue Reunion.com for doing this. I have never experienced this type of theft

I was charged for over $120 that all stemmed from signing up with Ancestry.com. They are sister companies and one says the other is not responsible for the other.

So I am pretty much stuck and had to cancel both debit cards over this. Yes, I am pissed off. Not to mention spending two hours with these three companies to try to recoup a few of the dollars. This is a scam and it should be reported to the Federal Trade Commission.

I did! Then I was told to also report them to the Better Business Bureau and our local representatives.

Who has time for all this? Just don't sign up for anything I guess and you won't have this problem.

do not fall for the $5. or $12.

monthly premiums! They take out $59.00 and $ 1. for something else Stay Away! Use myspace Was done on oct.

30,2008 and i am absolutely pissed! It was gone from my checking account 2 minutes after it popped up on the screen and it said that $60. total had been removed! damned fast!i have rarely had problems with my dealings online.

used the program last year looking for my lost brother. seems it was $30. and they said it was not refundable! should have learned when you had no choices!

went for the deal offered for 3 months for $12. and they got me for 60.00.
