I contacted company for CD on grants and received unauthorized charges from four other grant companies--all owned and operated by Grant Funding Source.
Furthermore, I never received the CD.

    I also contacted Grant Funding Source about a cd.  The company www.memberward.com took unauthorized charges out of my account - they are an affiliate who lead me to believe I was confirming my account with Grant Funding Source.

    We were hit the charges too.  We called Grant Funding Source 3 times to find out where our CD was.  We didn't get it but we sure do keep getting these fraudulant, never authorized charges on our credit card.  First it was $49.  Then it was memberward.com at $33.87.  I'm ready to call the US Attorney and file a consumer complaint.  Jen and Bill, South Florida

    I just got my bank statement and noticed the charges. I called the numbers attached to the web site 18772076534 all you get is a voice mail that always full. then on the weekend it says call back during business hours 9-5 moutain time. I never got a cd either. I also appears they are affiliated withs= SITEMEMBERCLUB.COM 18665490250.

    I was also charged $33.87 and when I called 1-877-207-6534,I was told to write a letter and ask for a refund. The address given was: 7251 W. Lake Mead Blvd., Suite 300, Las Vegas NV , 89128 ( upon doing a reverse address search, there was 5 different business entities for the same location, none of which matched the fore mentioned company name ). Made more calls and it appears that Grant Funding Source is somehow affiliated with "Member Reward  Network" and "At Home Rewards".

    What all this is is a collection of online shopping network.  It has a 21 day free trial and if you don't call to cancel you are then billed monthly.  If you call 1-877-207-6534  you can cancel,  (just try to find that on any of the websites.)

    I have been charged for two months at $33.87 after I called and cancelled.
    It's off to my attorney.  I suggest everyone sue the daylights out of them.

    Call 1-866-549-0250 and tell them you are aware that they are charging for other grant sites beside the one you applied to and that this is illegal and that there are complaints about these fraudulent charges from many others and if they don't refund your money you will report them and file suit against them. I believe youbnwill get your money if they say 7-10 days tell them if your not credited by the  tenth day you will report them and file suite on the tenth day. good luck and yes they did it to me today.

    I got charged $33.87 on my charge card today for services I did not order.  I have multiple sclerosis and my son was looking under government grants to see if he qualified  to get some assistance due to my low funds and him having a high GPA. These crooks are representing themselves as government affiliated and there nothing but a professional scam group.  Needless to say they will steal from the sick and good college kids that are trying to make it in this cold hard world.

    Hey out-there... I too was taken for a ride for a promised CD that would help me get gov't grants  now "sitememberclub.com" is taking an unauthorized withdraw from my account of 35.77... these sites and all there related bait sites possessing as legitimate services.  There are legitimate services but these scam artists will ruin it for them.  I'm in college too hoping for some genuine help instead its a kick in the guts.  I too want my money back...

    I have kept the email showing they acknowledged my timely cancellation.  I am in touch with my bank to dispute this charge.  Will keep you posted on success.  I recommend it, sometimes your bank will put a provisional reversal on the amount during the dispute.
