Unauthorized billing
About 4 days ago i got a call asking if i wanted to recieve a diamond watch as a gift for applying to recieve a few magazines. With Christmas around the corner I agreed. After listening to there speach about how great an offer it sounded, and it did seem like a good offer at the time. I only had to pay $3.84 per week for one magazine and i got a few other magazines of my choosing free.

After being transfered to 3 different people they finalized my order and explained to them that all i would have to pay was $74 a month for 12 months and then i would never have to worry about another payment for the rest of the 60 months i was to receive the magazines. The only thing they 'asked' was that I keep my substriction till the end of the payments. Not that i had to and that there was a cancellation fee or anything of the sort.

So when the guy is asking for my account number to verify where to amke payments to, I told him that I couldn't make the payment until the 3rd of October. He said that was no problem, that he would just run a pre authrization to see how much money was in the account. Well he went ahead and charged the account anyway. Causing me to have a negative balance in my account.

So I called up wanting to cancel my account before they sent me anything that i would have to send back, and they appologized for the mishap and offered to reduce my payments to $44 dollars a month for 20 months instead. After getting off the phone and trying to figure out what to do, i did some reseach and found other customers that had had also been ripped off. So hear i am writing this lengthly report hopeing others won't fall victim of Area Circulation Inc.

Fraud and scam
Area Circulation what a SCAM. If you ever get a call saying that your entered into a million dollar drawing just for ordering a few of your favorite mags, for a great low monthly bill. Tell them to stick it where the sun don't shine and hang up immediately.

They got me a couple of summers ago when I was out of town on a long job, in the evening fo course when I was tired and worn out from a hard days work, and on my cell phone no less. Anyway the deal sounded good and I figured that I would take the mags to my office for employee's to enjoy, etc. So I signed up for 12 payments of $ 54.00 and that would be all for a nice assortment of mags. Well before that was up they called to see how it was going and if I wanted to change any, I did want to change a few, now I have 2 new accounts and the first was paid off a few months ago. I called them and they said that I had agreed to different mags on another account, I even listened to the voice recording and it sounded just like the first phone call.

I never agreed to two other accounts, I am getting double magazines, and some that I personally would never have ordered. This company needs to be put out of business. I can only imagine that if they somehow got me swindled without me realizing what had happened and I am an educated business owner, what they are doing to thousands if not millions of elderly, poor, etc unsuspecting individuals who can't afford to be ripped off by these bastards.

I just talked to them a few days ago about this and they told me that I still had one open account, I agreed to pay this off since I was stupid enough to get caught into this scam, Tonight I got 5 letters from them 2 are invoices and now I have 3 more accounts, how the hell did that happen. I will fight this to the end and I will win.

If you have any information or have had this happen to you please help with any ideas.

Scam and cheating
I was called by Area Circulation offered a few magazines for a jeep price. Then they called at a later date called again to get more magazines. I paid every bill over the 24 months and never received half of the magazines. Finally the last payment that was set up with them for auto pay didn't go through.

Instead of be a responsible company and contacting about the last payment, they sent it to a collection agency. The collection agency contacts me to pay the bill. I find out there is a fee added to the last payment for it going to collections.

I am a semi-responsible person with a good credit rating. I am not wealthy with loads of money. What I am is angry that a company does not keep their promises, and then tries to attack my credit rating without even a contact call. Except the call I got a few months ago to by more magazines.

Awful fraud
This company makes the first account of magazines very interesting, and they claim it'll help better your credit report and score. My credit report hasn't been effected at all by this company. The accounts they persuade you to set up are great, and the account is only half way paid off before they persuade you into another one. The only thing they say they can do when you complain that you need to cancel is that they can only defer the payments. I've never heard of a magazine plan for 5 years.

Being in the military makes it hard to even cancel within the 3 days they give you because you could easily be training or just called out to do something that keeps you from receiving mail. This offer was good for awhile, but now I want out and I can't get out. HELP!
