October 28, 200916 yr So yeah I'm pretty damn pissed, stupid telemarketers call my house (As they do every day) to "notify" me about my "100 dollar free walmart gift card". They give some line of BS about how it is FREE yet they have to charge my card for shipping to send the gift card out to me. My mother picks up the phone today (I was out all day long) they run the line of BS to her and they ask her if she is NICHOLAS (last name not entered) she says yes like the moron that she is and of course they charge my card. What I would like to know is how the **** they got my card number to begin with. So I am charged today with nearly up to $18 bucks in charges almost over drafting my account so I call them up to explain to them I didn't authorize these charges this is how the conversation went. Her: Hi thanks for calling this is Anita speaking are you a card member?Me: No I'm not and I'm not interested, I'm calling in reference to my card being charged without my authorization.Her: No problem sir, can I have your phone number to look you up?Me: Sure *gives her my number*Her: Mr Nicholas correct?Me: Yes that would be me.Her: Okay and a representative called you and spoke with you and sir I'm sorry but you did authorize that transaction charge of $3.95Me: Alright and your calls are "monitored and recorded" is that correct? Can you replay the call back to me please.Her: Sure *plays tape of my MOTHER telling the representative SHE is ME*Her: Is that not you sir?Me: Does that sound like a man?Her: No sir it does not.Me: It's not me as you can clearly tell, now refund my GOD DAMN money.Her: Sure no problem here's your cancellation number a refund will be given in 10 business days.

October 28, 200916 yr Author where'd the other $14.05 go? some of your charges disappeared in your nearly pointless topic. That call was for one charge.
October 28, 200916 yr Wow, that's a little scary that they had your card number. You might want to consider canceling the card. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.
October 28, 200916 yr Go to the bank and make them cancel the charge, less trouble than calling telemarketers.
October 29, 200916 yr At least it sounds like you got someone who could actually speak english. [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature!
October 29, 200916 yr Thats what you get when you drop out in High School. What do education levels have to do with banks making unauthorized charges :mellow: This can happen to anyone..
October 30, 200916 yr As judge Judy says... if the story doesn't make any sense it's a lie! The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.
