    Consumer complaints indicate they are running a fraudulent telemarketing operation, selling these "discount membership" plans that are set up with little likelihood consumers obtain any real benefit.  

    Dispute fraudulent charges through your bank, and block the card number or close the account due to fraud, to prevent additional fraudulent charges.  Follow up your dispute IN WRITING, with a written dispute or fraud affidavit sent to your bnak's dispute address.  Your bank can reverse charges disputed within 60 days of the statement date showing the disputed charges, under FRB Reg. E for checking account debit cards or EFT, or under FCBA for credit cards.

    If you let them run out the 60 day dispute window with promises, you will get stuck.  In addition, if you keep your account open, or fail to block your card number, you may get additional fraudulent charges.

    Contact FTC and your state Attorney General if you have any further problems with fraudulent charges, or in getting your money back.

    value plus is a great website with some good discounts. The company is not fraudulent and have a A+ rating throught the better business bureau. If you call them they have real representatives answer with no wait time.  Their number is placed on your statements in the case you wish to call and cancel. Get smart and check your statements more then once a year!

    i got stuck for the second time with this same nonsence the first time i had to claim refund for almost 4 months, it tought me a lesson to check my bank statements every month and also write everything i pay and purchase to compare it with the monthly statement.
    I called and a girl called ginger kept saying i authorized the withdrawall, i insisted where did vp get my account #, it was thru an affiliated co. and she did not have that information, the first time i stopped buying from a co. i thought had given the info. now i do not know who it can be.To me this is not good for serious merchants because at the end sales online are going down. I like to buy online they have products ,can not be found at stores many times, and the services are great."I am fileing a complain to BBB this has to stop" unauthorized and confidentuality is a NO NO

    I did authorize this knowing that I could cancel at anytime.  I wanted to give it a trial and then if I did not like it cancel.  After 6 months I have yet to receive anything from them.  This feels like a scam.  It is definitely not a good business.
