I had never heard of WC *BUDGET SAVERS MNTH until it showed up as an automatic withdrawel from my account.  As bad timing would have it, I became preoccupied with family illness and subsequent funeral.  When I again found the time and energy to address this problem, I found out it's a company I NEVER heard of and they say I authorized it.  I NEVER authorize automatic withdrawels and I don't even use coupons, why would I request the services of a coupon clipping website?  I am reporting this to our local police for fraud and theft and any other agency I can locate.  I believe this may have been triggered by an internet purchase I made for "Aquabulbs" who, by the way, also ripped me off.
WC *BUDGET SAVERS MNTH broke into my account and stole 19.99 from me for 9 months.

    I'm a Federal Government puchace agent, and only use this account for official business, and it happened to me also.
     Don't waste your time waiting for a form to fill out. It's just a stall tactic. Treat these people as the fraudulent scammers they are.
     Call your credit card issuing bank, and immediately close the card number and dispute the charges. Once the scammers have your information, they will not stop charging your card.
     If you go online, or call the number (888)530-2890 to stop charges, it will ask for more of your information to "access" your account, i.e. address, telephone number, card number, etc. DO NOT GIVE THEM PERSONAL INFORMATION. This just makes it worse.

    They got me for $29.95 twice and now I have tried to contact them on the 1-800-475-1942 and I get a foreigner, who doesn't speak english.  Now I call back and get a recording to call www.programstop.com and get a recording.  It sure isn't easy to get this fraudulent charge dropped.  I'm going to cancel my credit card tomorrow.  The only way to get rid of them.

    Thanks for the phone number 800-475-1942. I couldn't find the phone number from Budget Savers' website and the phone number listed on my credit card report was incomplete. I was able to call the phone number and cancelled the erronus charge. Hopefully, this will be the end of the story.

    Thanks so much for posting the number! I called the company to try and get my $29.95 back that they had charged me that I did not agree too and they gave me 8 different phone numbers to call and kept switching me back and forth and I could not get this taken care of! I was at my whits end and didn't know where else to turn other than my credit card company until I seen this website! Thank you so much once again! You're a lifesaver!

    I just called the number and a Shirley answered and I gave her the membership number and not my name.  I had received a postage form to fill out and return to them for guaranteed most up to date free gifts. I told her that I never requested anything from Budget Savers and why am I still getting things sent to my address even after I called them within a day of being charged $1 on my credit card statement.  She said that my account had been cancelled when I called that time and all I had to do was throw that paper away.  I did, but I will be looking out for these scam artists that take your money without your approval!

    Thanks for providing that number! When they called me the other day about signing up they said the number so quickly that I didn't get it. You are right--they knew who I was. I was not given a hassle and was given a cancellation number and told that there would be a DNR (do not reactivate) note added after the cancellation number.

    Now I just hope that this works and they don't try to charge me for more than the initial $1.00 trial.
