should popular club be allowed to ignor their obligations to all the secretarys they got to sell their stuff for them, we would like some compensation and a apology for what they have done to us, I heard finger hut bought them, is this true?

I sold populsr club for 15-18 years . I have dividens and rewards points to cash in . Tryed to reach the company by phone and on the web with no results.I am angry that no one from the company reached mein regards to my club. I made alot of money for them and have not been payed the items i should have redeamed for . Angry comsumer.

I know this is long so thank you for taking the time to read my complaint! I'm just so furious! I have read a lot of the Popular Club complaints! I thought that I was the only one going through this! Popular Club issued me 2 credit slips for orders that I started paying on before I ever got any of my merchandise but I had to call them first to see what the hold up was on my order. They would just say (after I called them many times) that the items were out of stock. I ordered one last time hoping that my items weren't "out of stock" but I still have never received a credit slip or merchandise for this order. This is when I started realizing what was going on with this company! What I did receive though, was a letter stating that I owed them money! I never received any merchandise so why would I ever pay them for something that I didn't receive? I called and told them that they owe ME money, not the other way around! The women said that if I don't pay the $65 that they say I owe, they will turn it in to a collection agency. I refused to pay it! Well, guess what? A couple of weeks ago, I got a notice from a collection agency! I still didn't pay it! I got another notice from the collection agency today! Now, listen to this! I just applied for a department store credit card (my credit has always been excellent-NEVER late for a bill!) and I was denied because of not paying the bill that Popular Club says that I owe-it was listed as an unpaid/past due bill! I am furious and nobody will listen to me! Do I have any rights? I have been a Polpular Club secretary for 20 years! I also have over $400 in dividends/rewards but I can't use them. I don't know what to do about the collection agency but I'm afraid that if I don't pay it, my credit will just get worse. I hate the fact that I didn't get any merchandise and I still have to pay when it's the company that owes ME money! What can I do to resolve this? Popular Club didn't even have the courtesy to let any of us know that they were going bankrupt! Also, the credit slips that all of us are receiving can only be used for new orders! Can you believe they would even have the nerve to say that to us? Unbelievable!!
I came across this complaint website when I was looking for something about Popular Club going out of business and I saw that other people had the same complaints as I, so I joined in. Thank you to all that shared your stories!

No one tried to contact me I have credit slips with this company and would like my money. They had no problem taken my money when I brought items, and do you mean that's it. I don't get back my money that is due to me.

I was also a secretary for over 20 years, I have several customers that have been requesting catalogs. I called Popular Club in May of this year & was informed that the website would be up & running come June. After trying to log on to the web site I again called the # listed above only to be informed that the call can't be completed as dialed. I also called Fingerhut who supposedly bought Popular Club & was informed by the person who answered the phone that they did not purchase Popular Club & is in no way affiliated with them. I am now going to call the Attorney Generals Office to find out what I can do to recoup the $700 I have in secretary rewards plus the $200 I have in dividends. I do see a lawsuit in the works. I work in the customer service department & my company would never tell us to lie to customers for them.
