    We are in receipt of Mr. ********* complaint. Using the information provided in the complaint an account was located in the name of ******** ******. When Ms. ****** signed up for her account she provided a street address, phone number as well as the email address that match the same information that Mr. ******* provided in his complaint. Records indicate that Ms. ****** did sign up for services on December 28. During that online sign up, she was required to complete a 4-page process that required her date of birth, social security number, full credit card including the cvv number from the back of the card, and billing information. If Ms. ****** used Mr. ******** card without his authorization, that is a private issue between the two of them. With that said, we did receive an email from Mr. ******* the same day he filed this complaint, asking that the account be cancelled as well as refunded. Even though there was no indication of fraud, the account was cancelled, as well as a courtesy refund request was processed. We request this complaint be closed.

    On approximately October 28 2024 I was searching for senior apartments that the rent is based on my limited income if $943 monthly from disability. On a site that has those options I was directed to free check score site. I had no choice to pick a different site, this one was the only 1 that the apartment I chose would work with. I was told a $ 1 service fee would be charged from the debit card I provide. There was no mention of reoccurring monthly charge or a trial period which the subscription has to be cancelled by. After receiving my score I couldn't get back to the apartment site I was at before. I feel I was taken advantage of my nievity from a head wound that Is part of why I'm on disability for.

    In order to signup for our services and to access her credit score, Ms. ***** was required to sign up directly with us, using our signup path, which she did on October 12. We provide credit monitoring and access to consumers credit score and reports for the consumer directly.

These terms were also confirmed in the welcome email/transaction receipt emailed to her to the same email address on this complaint.
    Ms. ***** contacted customer service on November 04, requesting her account be cancelled, which it was immediately cancelled. Ms. ***** then contacted customer service again on November 13 and requested a refund of the previous charge.

All of this was prior to our receipt of the complaint and as such we request the complaint be closed as well as being removed from view.

    On Sept 3rd I was directed to ****************** while looking at rental properties. The prompt ask you to put in your information to do a credit check. This was not a sign up form for the website. After I put in my information, I was requested to pay 1 dollar as a one time fee. On Sept 8th at 2:05 am I received a charge of ***** for Kfreescore com (this is how it is listed in my bank history). I painstakingly try to find my way through the unclear and quite honestly predatory website hoping to be able to cancel this account and receive a refund. As of Sept 10 I've been charged another ***** once again to Kfreescore com (listed on bank statement). I would like my information removed completely from your infrastructure.

    I have just got one score form htem, and then tried to cancel it ever since, I ahve called htem many times, was not successful, emailed them, and tried ot cancel online never successful, I reported them to my credit company, not successful, none of these held them back in taking $40 a month from my credit card, this is a shameful, unethical and fraudulent behavior by them. Finally when today I was able to reach them, they told me the only way to cancel our services is by the phone which I waited around 10 minutes to talk to a live person fianlly ! I want all the $40 refunded to my account. If not I will report their behvaior and all these gamesmanships to AG and FTC, and other consumer proteciton agencies. $40 for the past 8 months at lteast ! totalling $320

    As indicated by **************** he did indeed sign up for services on March 6. At the time **************** signed up he was presented with the methods of cancelation as part of the signup process and was also sent a welcome email/transaction receipt, which contained the order information/cost as well as the methods in which we can be reached for assistance or cancellation. This email was sent to the same email address that was used on this complaint. The email gave two options for cancelation. By phone via a toll free number or to cancel online.  **************** claims to not been able to reach us for months, this is simply not true. There is no record of any calls from **************** until his first and only call on August 20th. There is no record of **************** ever attempting to speak to customer service online. When **************** did call on August 20th, he was immediately canceled, and even though he was not eligible for any refunds a courtesy refund was issued. As **************** makes several inaccurate and inflammatory statements we request that not only this complaint be closed, but removed from public view as well.

    I signed up for a free trial in February, after repeated attempts to cancel my subscription online I have gotten continued attempts at charges a website I did not recognize one of the transactions went through $39.90 I called and asked to cancel my subscription on the phone and while the lady was very nice and was quick to cancel my subscription, when asked for a refund, I was told that she needed to check into it and to please hold. She must have forgotten to mute her microphone because I could hear in the background as she was speaking with a gentleman, cancel my subscription and was wondering if she was able to refund my money. The gentleman responded by becoming loud and aggressive with her and yelling at her telling her that she cannot refund my money and that is not what we do and how we profit if we refund peoples money? She then came back to the phone and told me that she had entered in my request for a refund and it was declined. Im not sure what kind of system these people use however it seems like a greedy old man who is aggressive and yells at his employees is not a very effective system for running a business
