I came across the "Free Trial" offer on Friends Reunited and naively applied giving my Visa number. Charge (copy saved) of £2.95.
My bank rang me to enquire whether I had actually made this purchase because suddenly £62.50 was being requested by this company. My bank had declined to pay pending my wishes. I have tried to contact this company by phone (umpteen times always engaged) 2 detailed emails. Your previous correspondent mentioned the 3 day cooling off period. I am informed that I entered into a contract once I made the order. This could mean that
this company could apply for further payments. If this is a one-off
I could learn and put it down to experience, but what protection have I got against losing more money to this Scam. If they do cancel my order as requested, I will write on this website. But there is certainly a lesson to be learned and this company's business practices are questionable.
