    Have you had any luck with the lawyer?  They charged my account $49.99 unauthorized and I did not have the funds in my account but my bank paid them and now I also have a $30.00 overdraft fee as well!  Judging by the number of complaints here, this is not a legitimate business at all!  We should consider a class action suit!

    I have no idea who your company is and want to know why you take money out of my accountwhen this was not authorized and want it  put back into my account within the next 72 hours.     I have contacted the lawyers office and they stated they can bring charges against you for doing this nwithout my knowledge.    There is also a 35.oo dollar charge for this being taken out of my account and i expect to have this taken care of by your company also since it was brought on by your doings and not mine.     I would like a confirmation from this e-mail by the end of this business day stating what you are going to do about this matter.   whatever this was needs to be cancelled at this time and the money plus the charges returned to my account.This is a confirmation number that i was given     ID2401615

    I called and spoke to "Paula", she said I would have to go on their website to request a refund and gave me a cancellation number. She said the refund department would look into this and I should call back in a few days to find out the status of my refund. This company took $49.99 from my checking account unauthorized. I have filed a fraud/forgery claim with my banks' fraud dept. I am also reporting this identity theft to the local police dept.,the post office and the 3 credit bureaus.

    Update: It took almost two weeks but I actually got the $49.99 deposited back into my account. I did the live chat and called everyday. I also filed a police report, emailed their COO, called their bank, filed a report with BBB and AZ Attorney General. Do all you can to get the money back!

    You can get a refund call 1-888-349-6822 and cancell.  Get teh Id cancellation #, then go to www.77refund.com and fill in this number as customer id and submit.  Also call 1-888-895-6053 customer service to verify.  I also reported this to Attorney General in both states.  They are charging you account when you sign up for other sites such as payday loans.  They are piggybacking and charging you.

    Please call them and insist for a cancellation, keep that cancellation confirmation number nearby.  Then call the Scottsdale Police Dept. explain to them of the situation, we did this just so that they would have this on file, then contact the Arizona State Attorney General's Office, you can contact them via email or United States Postal Mail.
    Contact the BBB, you will see that they are rated as an "F", Suprising huh?
    And last but not least, contact the Arizona Business Licencing Dept.
    Now it did take me about 30 plus days, but with the help of the Arizona State Attorney General's Office, we were able to get in touch with this companies "attorney" and get a refund, at least by paper check, haven't cashed it yet, who knows, they may have put a stop on it or something, but it is something that we do have, and if we need to, we will keep fighting.
    But I am trying to get as many people involved with these depts. so that maybe after enough complaints, perhaps we all can get them shut down, and who knows, maybe make an example out of them.  Right?
    Hey, Good Luck To You and all of us.

    The same thing has happen to me I was trying to apply for a personal loan and the only thing that kept coming back were PAY DAY LOANS which I started to apply to and then I changed my mind because I didn't want anyone touching my pay check.  I went into my checking account for another matter entirely and that is when I noticed the $49.99 that I never authorized any one to take out.  My bank has told me that there is nothing they can do.  In order to put a hold on my account guaranteeing that nothing like this happens again would cost me $31.00 and it is only good for 6 months.  Or the safest way for me to do this is to close out my existing account and open a brand new one.

    My checking account was charged 49.99 and 19.99 by separate companies.  Cancelled the 49.99 on December 9, 2010 and they said the money would be back into my account by December 15th, called again today and they are now saying the funds will not be in the account now until December 20th and blaming my bank for getting the funds to the merchant named DYNAMICS ONLINE, the second one was with Discount Web Member sites and this was not authorized either.  Both of these amounts bounced my checking account and I was told to call my bank and have them reverse the charges.  I am contacting the Ohio Attorney General's office and BBB.  I agree that a class action suit should be filed against this company

    These people also took 49.99 out of my account today. I never heard of them and of course I did not give them permission to take money out of my acct. How did they get my acct# anyway???? I called the number for Unlimited Local Services and they told me to call 77Refund. I filled out the refund form, hopefully I will get my money back in 72 hours. I have filed a dispute with my bank, they are going to take care of this. I am unemployed and I would never authorize these people to take money out of my acccount. What a scam

    I was given the same story like everyone else on here. I am very pissed and can't believe that this happened to me. I didn't give out any information to anyone. I am very upset that they took 49.99 out of my account which put me in the negative so as you can imagine I am now negative in my account. Argh
    They also gave me a refund #2404573 which I believe they had no intention on returning my money. I am on the phone now with my bank and trying to see what in fact I can do to start a claim against them.

    I am on with my bank and they are suggesting that I close the account. I think that everyone should do so. I know that this is a pain in the A** but is the only way to get from them taking more money out. Just a suggestion. I hope that things go well for everyone involved. Good luck to you all. :-)

    They took out $49.99 out of my account w/out my knowledge, because I have never heard of these people. They need to be investigated because this is a SCAM. After having to act a complete fool on the phone I finally got to speak w/a supervisor, they gave me a refund code, but I dont trust these people espically since I never authorized the withdrawl from my account to begin with, so I am also disputing this through the bank.

    On 12/11/10, 777discountclub took $49.99 out of my checking account without my authorization which overdrafted my account resulting in additional overdraft fees. I have never subscribed to any discount club, never authorized any online loans, or heard of this company/website. I want this money returned to my account immediately.  On 12/11/10 I was working and did not go online at all that day.  I don't know how they obtained my personal information, but what I do know is this is a scam, it is wrong, and it is a crime. Something needs to be legally done to this organization to stop them from their deceptive business practices and hold them responsible for their illegal acts of fraud and theft.  
    I had an online chat with Jeff and all he did was tell me he would cancel my subscription and provided me with a cancellation number.  He told me; "we have a refund request procedure here... all you need to do is fill out the request form online so that our refund dept. can initiate the processing of your refund request... this is the website http:www.77refund.com and please allow our refund department to process your refund request within 3 business days... you will be receiving an email regarding your request". Unfortunately I haven't been successful or able to get into the website to request my "REFUND" yet.
    I notified my bank when this withdrawal was still in the pending status and asked them not to honor this fraudulent check but I was told that I needed to Stop Payment on the check for a fee and that I should go into my local branch and file a written complaint & fill out a fraud affidavit.  They also said to close my current checking account to avoid any further fraudulent activity on my account.  This company is producing counterfeit checks used to request money from peoples personal banking accounts.  It needs to stop!!!

    They told me the exact same thing, that I authorized them to take the 49.99 on 12/11/10. Check out all your emails, because another Discount Club was thanking me for my membership with them that I never joined. This club charges 59.95. I called them and they told me that they do not have me as a member, and they have a 14-day free trial period, but yet they send me a email thanking me for my membership!!! These are the same people, using a different discount club name. I tried to fill out that form for a refund also, but it would not let me continue the process. They are running a scam and will be caught.
