WAMU offered me a zero percent credit card (no interest for a year). They transferred the money through electronic check, then refused the check, then charged me $ 20 for insufficient funds (for the check they refused -- at this time I had a $0 balance and the check was more than covered by available credit). Then they sent out another electronic check, and before the other bank received the money, showed my account as owing the amount (over $10,000). So, I had a balance of over $ 10,000, a fee for NSF, and no money to show for it at... read full review »

The account was suspended for economy exploitation when character was around level 18. I contacted THSale and of course they claimed it wasn't their fault and the account must have been hacked.

It would seem that Retail Services makes a point of noting payments as arriving late so that they can charge a late fee. I have no problems with any other company when sending payment but have had numerous problems with Retail Services. They recommend sending payments 11 days before due which I find ridiculous, the postal service is not that slow. Someone should look into this company and I would suggest canceling any credit cards that are handled by them. read full review »
