I get calls from these people saying that I have some kind of an agreement or contract with them, and that if I want to cancel I owe them $400. I never heard of these people before they called me, several times. I don't know their location, state, phone number. I told them I will not pay them anything, and if they want to take me to court it's fine, at least then I'll find out who and where they are.

I was looking at my credit card statement in September. I noticed some charges listed as Magazines, so I checked out the phone number and found the address online and it came up with this company. I never signed up for the service and the charges just started showing up on my credit card statement.

Patriotic Readers Club called several months ago claiming to be "with my magazine distributor". I currently use one so I didn't think much about it. They proceeded to tell me that "they" are going to credit card billing and doing away with paper billing. That seemed reasonable with the way technology is heading so I gave them my card number. Stupid!! I was told that the charge would be $39.95/month which was about what I was paying. I was told that I would be getting an additional five magazines. They told me that they would fedex confirmation with account number, terms, etc. I never got the first piece of paper from them. Well, when I got my credit card bill the charge was $49.95 and I also still got the paper bill from my current distributor. It wasn't until I tried to contact the company via the phone number I was given that I learned I was actually contacted by this Patriotic Readers Club. By the way, every time I called I got the answering machine and no one called back until I cancelled my credit card. Then they started calling. Today I received a letter in the mail from a "collection agency" stating that I owe over $1200 even though the account balance is only about $330. I can write to them disputing the charges and they will determine whether they are legitimate and then let me know. Well, BS, my attorney will be writing the letter.

I just joined a magazine club and then I get a call from these people telling me they need to verify all the information of my account and magazine order. I thought it was the magazine club I just joined; because it was the same amount of money a month. Then I start to get build out of my checking account twice from two different magazine companies.

I called and got a confirmation order to cancel my membership because they tricked me into believing it was the other company. They keep sending me magazines when I canceled and now they say I owe them $334.60 and they will take me to a collection agency. I did my part and canceled why can't they do their part of the paperwork and follow thru with the cancellation.

I canceled my checking account too as they kept taking money out of my account. As far as I am concerned...It's over!

I was originally contacted by phone by a person saying he was with "my" reader service. He asked me many questions that he said were needed to confirm my account. As I do have a magazine service I mistakenly gave him info that I shouldn't have. I did not know that I would be signed up for another service. I started getting charges on my credit card in dec. 2009. I have made 20 calls to this company and they do not return my calls. I have contacted my credit card company to cancel the charges but I am tired of having to try to get mess with this.
