In March, 2008, I signed up for a "free" credit report with the subject website. I assumed it would be a one time occurrence.

Since then I have received a charge on my Debit Card of $19.95 per month, the charge being made around mid-month. I was asked for membership number, etc. upon calling 1-888-840-6301.

After giving some personal info to an agent, he agreed to cancel my "membership" (of which I was never aware.)

Hope others get warned off this offer. It cost me roughly $60.00 before I caught the scam. Hope the agent took the action he promised, too.

Same problem. I was charge $19.95 for the next two months even after I unsubscribed using my creditcard number on the automated voice machine.  

 

However, when I called them and used my membership id (available along with the credit card transaction on the statement), the c/s agent agreed to cancel the sub and refund the amount. The hung up after giving me her name and confirmation number. 

 

Hopefully, they will refund the amount. But the call was not unpleasant.
