    Industry Tips about Buying Clubs from the BBB:

    The BBB suggests that if you are considering membership in a buying club, first compare the prices and services of the club to retail stores and other such services. Consider the amount of merchandise you would have to buy at the club's discounted prices to make up for the cost of the membership. Understand the policies of the organization. BBB files indicate that Sempris, also doing business as FunSource, Home Play, Provell, Vacation Passport, Value Plus, and The Good Deal Company (scroll to the bottom of the BBB's business review to see a full list of the company's alternate names) has a pattern of complaints. The pattern of complaints, as determined by BBB, involves consumers alleging the business (or one of their subsidiaries) made unauthorized charges on their credit card and in many cases customers state they were not aware they had signed up to receive any type of membership or service from this company. The BBB recommends that consumers regularly check their credit card statements for charges which are not clearly identified as to the product or service ordered, and challenge any invalid charges early with the business and/or credit card company. The BBB also cautions consumers who order products online or by telephone when representatives of the selling company attempt to "up-sell" the consumer on added products, programs, clubs or services which may be charged to the consumer's credit card.

      I filed a complaint on *******, whom I still believe is part of this scam. I was on a call for assistance (gov't) after holding, a *** picked up and told me I was eligible for a $100 gift card. I accepted and paid s&h w/ debit card. He put me on hold and said I would hear recorded ads and I was under no obligation. I said forget it and he said don't worry. I heard an ad that gave me no choice to not subscribe to it. When the *** got back on the phone I was livid and told him I would be charged. He insisted I wouldn't and I was charged upwards of $86.00 until I caught it and cancelled my card. He said he was with *******. Several companies were charging to my debit before I caught it. I filed a complaint with BBB and they responded ***orting an invalid claim. Later learned the company's name is Membership Services. Yet the place I called was a ******* in ************, *******. I tracked the charge to a ******* there. That was the second company and he refused me and said he would send a form for refund. The first company Uncontacted did refund my money. It wasn't easy dealing with these people. Then I received an envelope filled with leaves for different companies after they had all begun charging my debit card which I cancelled. The places matched the leaves in this envelope. I called one other which was a $50.00 ******* gift leaflet. I was so angry and the guy answered and sounded exactly like the one who scammed me in the first place. He asked if I called to activate the 50 dollar gift card. I told him no and I would never shop at ******* again. He laughed at me. He sounded exactly like the one who hacked the original call. I have talked with that agency, finally. The calls wouldn't go through after the ******* gift card ordeal. It was about 2 weeks before I got through and now after countless hours , late fees for insufficient funds on my bills on auto pay, due to having to cancel my card...I have to do ***orts with the department of justice. Not invalid. *****
