Zbiddy is a Rip Off Paid for Bids & Auction items never receive anything in return

10/26/13 signed up and paid for a bid package 59.90 I won several of the auctions and paid for them and the shipping called 10 days later to find out when I could expect to receive I was told to wait 3 to 5 days for shipping called again 10 days later I was told they had been sent to shipping to wait 3 to 5 days nothing was sent I went back on to the site and sent a email message to their customer support requesting my money back on December 24Th which equaled 75.00 between the signup fee and the additional costs they charged for each auction win with shipping I have not received a response from them yet . I also noticed that all the bids I paid for are due to expire today this is big time sink and RIP OFF . No body should waste their time on this I am pissed

Zbiddy Online Auction

Just was checking out what they where about and hit the bid on a free Wal-mart G card for .01 and got charged to my account 79.00 did not authorize this and sure did not give them my infor to authorize thisI just want my money returned back to me No disclosure of a fee of any kind . Dawn I have wrote them 3 time now about this. The fact that there is no mention on this right from the beginging is VERY misleading to comsumers. I have see past complains on this company and there are similary problems I just want my 79.00 dollars back. Repunzel1146@***.com is my Email you can reach me at

Zbiddy.com is charging $99.00 for registration without telling you

Zbiddy.com ask you to register to bid on their products, however, failing to tell you a charge of $99 will be charged to your account. Therefore, Zbiddy is getting fees of $99.00 per person without telling them and you don't receive the item you have bidded on. WHAT A RIP OFF!! There is no way of contacting anyone to let them know you did not authorize the charge of $99 from your card, so, you're just out of your money. Zbiddy.com is a SCAM, and the American public needs to know, and for reimbursement purposes.

Florence get off zbiddys *** geez. They are a rip off they said I won a bid for a gift card and it was 2$ fee and they took way more than that out without telling me it had to purchase a bidpack and I didn't know until the next screen.

That should be ducking illegal. Some people work hard for their money and I want my money back NOW!

Registration is free, folks. Zbiddy only charge when you purchase their bid package.

There is absolutely N O T H I N G that refers to purchasing a bid package!!!!! If registration was free, and you were upfront, you would not have this many unfavorable reviews. A good and honest company would not be afraid to come forward and admit that their advertising techniques definitely need to be revised.

ZBIDDY big Zripoff

I went on this website I saw advertised as providing PENNY AUCTIONS, well they actually make you BUY the right to bid and then set the clock back anytime anyone DOES bid. And THEN they try to make YOU pay THEM shipping costs on their assinine imaginary bid packages. I had started out with free bids and supposedly WON auctions for 25.00 gift cards, however, having already WON these things, they then try to wonk you with various charges to GET the effectively ONLINE offer. What do I need to pay THEM shipping charges for "BIDS" and online ONLY credit? What a RIPOFF.

ON NOV 4th I was looking the Penny Auction commercial and I thought about the Ipad.. Just goes to show we can't except something for nothing...

I had enough time to sign in and get this ipad, and I fill out the form to become a memember, and as soon as i put in my card information it zapped me for $60 that I didn't see coming... At first at the bottom of the screan it said 0.60 cents and I was wondering about that, so I checked my email and saw my PayPal invoice that they had billed me NOT sixty cent, but sixy bucks... I was really upset and from that very moment to this i have tried my best to contact them through phone, letters email and card company.. NOTHING< NOT ONE PERSON was I able to talk to...

They ripped me off bigtime.. I want to know how I can get my money back.... Who else can we involve to put a stop to this.. Channel 12 news on our side perhaps..

Someone needs to inform the people to STOP that.. :cry

There is no fee on Zbiddy. To place bid, you have to purchase a bid package. This process is common among all the penny auction site.

Since that is the case, then it would seem then that when the person is ready to place a bid, then he or she can pick and buy the bid package they want, not the one zbiddy picks for them.. I never picked which packaged I want..

To be honest, I would have NEVER filled out for the process in the first place if I had known up front that they were going to charge me sixy dollars.. They lied and scam people by decieving them and stealing their money at the end without them knowing of it...

I had time to buy the ipad, but once the signin process was completed, the timer went up to 17 day and some odd hours... RIP OFF>>>
