Free Shipping Trick
I ordered a movie in December 2010 and evidently accepted free shipping in exchange for the right to bill be $19.95 per month for the next year. I tried to call the company, HOT MOVIE SALE . COM and could not get past the "push 1 for english" section. No matter what I pushed, I could not get past this section to get a human. So, I called my credit card company, AMEX, who said they would dispute the charges. I did this every month for 5 months. After 5 months AMEX sent me a letter stating the company provided a contract saying that I agreed to pay $19.95 per month. so AMEX was going to return $100 to the company and put it on my bill. I called the company HOTMOVIESALE.COM and finally got through. They ABSOLUTELY said I could get none of my money back because I contacted the card company before I contacted them. Well, I had no idea who was billing me...I HAD to cantact the card company first to find out where I was getting billed from. So far I have paid $135 for one movie and it appears HOTMOVIESALE.COM offers no recourse. DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY!!! Who would accept $5 saving on shipping for the right to pay $240 per year. It is obviously a HUGE ripoff! I never received ANY notification from the company that I was being billed.

unauthorized charges
I ordered a movie last November.. they "said"it was on back order and delayed the mailing then "said" they would cancel my order etc. However they continued to charge a monthly fee of $9.95 even though I never ordered a thing who knows what for; as i was told that any "membership" was cancelled . By the time I noticed this charge they had taken some $60 without providing a thing. Under threats from VISA they "offered" to refund 2 months fees (1/3 of the total they charged) but said I was out the remaining $40... so they steal until caught then give back 30% (if and when caught) and call it even ... what a GREAT SCAM!!!

unethical business practices
This company has a very deceiving approach to subscription. They say if you don't check a box on your shipping invoice, you'll automatically be enrolled in an annual membership. Then each month you'll get charged 19.95 until you realize what happened. What a ripoff!

Stay away
I was directed to the website through an article I was reading and it offered a movie related to the subject I was reading. The movie was only $3.79 and free shipping upon registration with the website. Somewhere in the process without my knowledge I commited to a monthly membership at $9.95 per month. I did not catch it until I checked my account online. Once I realized what had happened, I went to the website and was able to cancel my memebership, but I was out the initial $9.95 that was billed. It was very deceptive in luring you into the membership, definitely not a compant to do business with. Live and learn!!!

SCAM DONT USE
HOTMOVIESALE.COM is a scam site, there is a hidden bogus membership fee that will get you if you do not cancel in 3 days, I didnt get in to that trap, but if you read the details you are authorizing these people to put tracking cookies on your computer! I NEVER GOT MY DVD, they gave me a shipping date of 2 weeks after the order, saying it was not availalbe at this time, then after a month, they automatically cancel the order so you never get your order! TOTAL SCAM!!

ONLINE CON - SCAM
Buyer beware! I purchased a movie online at HOTMOVIESALE.COM on 3/7/2010. The company said that the movie had not been released yet and offered to put me on a waiting list, but I was required to pay for it first. So I purchased it and then waited at least 2 months before it finally arrived. I thought no more of it after that. Nearly a year later I discovered that HOTMOVIESALE.COM had continued to ding my credit card monthly at the rate of $9.95 for the first 6 months after the movie purchase and then increased the amount they were charging my card to 19.95 per month thereafter. After deducting a total of $192.65 (which included the amount for the DVD which was $13.25) from my card, I finally noticed the inappropriate deductions they had been making. When I called to see what the charges were all about, they said that I had agreed to a monthly membership plan when I made my first purchase. When I threatened an investigation, they agreed to cancel my membership and told me they could only refund the last 3 months payments for a total of $59.85. When I made the DVD purchase, I did not see any indication that the site was a member only site, nor did I fill out an application for membership. I didn't receive an email that welcomed me to my new DVD club, like you would normally see if doing such. If I'd received something like that it would have thrown up a red flag, I only received a confirmation of the DVD purchase. No disclosure was made regarding automatic withdrawls from my account, nor did I give an approval for such. On visiting the site today, I noticed that they have changed the "purchase" or "checkout" button to one that says "join" which would vaguely suggest that you are joining a club instead of just making a purchase. I have notified my credit card company about the fraudulent charges. I would recommend that customers avoid this website unless they are willing to have their credit card automatically charged monthly, and have the automatic withdrawls increase without receiving prior notification.

over charging for two months
November 27, 2010 I ordered a DVD from HotMovieSale.com and the total price was $2.52 . I did receive the DVD but for the past two months I have been charged $9.95 from this company on my credit card and no explanation as to why this is happening, and would like to know what is going on.
Thanks for your help
