I too am beyond furious. The arrogance of a 'group' of wise guys smart enough too not only have they invaded you and your 'presumed' safety they look to be successful in stealing from anyone left 'prey to their liking. If any of you know of a 'legal; way to not only get 'our funds returned but to literally stop these 'clowns' in their tracks an dput them behind bars. I dont know about you but $49.95 that im unaware of ... Can be painful for a typical little guy like you. Just enough to make us very 'vernuralable' to 'thiefs' such as these. I'm game if anyone wants to (and has the knowledge to do it)... Count me in... Dale

Very shady company. Thanks for posting this number, Jerry actually took the time to cut me a check, and next day air it to me. He even called back with a tracking number for me to use to follow the shipment. Hopefully it will be legit.

They collect your bank info from online loan applications, and other similar sites, then form a pop up application with that information, that shows on your computer on a separate page. If you close the window without choosing to NOT apply, you are automatically enrolled, and your bank account is charged. They clear it with a paper check that they create with your bank info, and clear it through a 3rd party bank.

I recommend anyone that has trouble with this company call him immediately and get resolution, you are wasting your time pursuing the online options for reimbursement.

I join the complaint list, for EverPrivateCard, I was low on funds, when i checked my account balance, which was now negative, a check #9999 for 54.95 was/had been debited from my checking. My bank said it was a fee for a online credit card application, they gave the #[protected] and said the company name was EverPrivateCard, I had never heard of this company, nor did i fill out any application with them, nor did i EVER authorize them to debit my account, i know have NSF fees. We need to make a stand and take these scammers out, and put them behind bars!

I receive a letter from my bank, that there was 49.95, trying to be with drawn out of my account. Under check #9999. on 5-24-07. WITH A PHONE # ON A CANCELED CHECK AS [protected]. LUCKY FOR ME THOW MY BANK SENT IT BACK AS NO ACCOUNT! I WILL MAKE SURE THAT THEIR IS NO ACH WITHDRAWS FROM MY ACCOUNT OR AUTOMATIC DEBITS FROM MY ACCOUNT. YOU SHOULD DO THE SAME! I never applied for such a card as this. But i was on a web site for cash advance. That they share your information with a third party, but never did i think that there are such ingnorence, con, people that try to take off of other people. I ALSO AM A SINGLE PARENT OF 2 KIDS. THAT I ONLY HAVE MY SELF TO SUPPORT MY KIDS. THIS COMPANY SHOULD BE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE.

I applied for a credit card not a prepaid card they took 49.95 out of my account they tried three times on the third time they got the 49.95 out. I called them on 6/5/07 and asked them why they took money out my account and what this card is about they told me that it was a prepaid debit card that i had to put money on it to use it. I told them that i paid just for a card with nothing on it they said yes and i said i don't want the card and they told me that i would not get a refund i am on disability and i don't have that kind of money i told them. That i only had 50.00 dollars left in my account and they took it all. I have no money for the whole month they hung up on me.

There are messages posted here with several different contact points including telephone numbers that are NOT correct. Please read this if you have an issue with EverPrivate Card.

The probability is that you applied for a cash advance loan or credit card and the EverprivateCard advertisement appeared with a Yes / No option. In order to get your checking account information, that Yes block had to checked. That is where the authorization originated.

If you didn’t intentionally check the Yes block and you don’t want the EverPrivate Card, then you will get a refund, assuming the charge did clear your bank.

The best and FASTEST way to request a refund is to simply send an email to contact@everprivatecard.com. Provide your name and mailing address. Emails to that address are processed within 24 hours and result in an email back confirming the refund and showing the original transaction.

Follow these instructions and YOU WILL GET A RESPONSE, calling the posted telephone numbers on this site is a waste of your time and will not result in getting your inquiry processed, they are not the correct company contacts.

I am very upset because they charged our checking account twice for something that we did not authorize. Now we can't get in contact with that company. If they don't refund our account within the next couple of days, i am going to report to the better business bureau and turn them into 12 on your side for fraud charges.

Everprivate Card makes an effort to work with its marketing partners to insure the advertisement includes full disclosure. Yes there are complaints posted on this site, but it’s a fraction of the total membership and the complaint % is far below typical online statistics. So why are the complaints here ? Because some consumers have simply failed to read what they signed. They applied for a loan or credit card and simply checked without reading. We can provide the full details of the authorization including the IP address of the PC used in the transaction.

Please allow us to go through that process before you make slanderous and damaging statements about the company. Our attorney advises us that these actions would be cause for us to seek relief for financial damages.

This company has withdrawn money from our account two months in a row without consent, and after I complained and was told I would get a refund. No refund, and they took another $29.95 out again this month. The toll free number provided offers no option to speak to a representative but directs you to a web site or a different phone number with a 514 area code. There seems little we can do about stopping them from taking this out other than changing our banking information. Very frustrating and expensive!

This company tried to take money out of my account. Because i had no money the fake check bounced and the bank charted me 35 $ i called the number the bank gave me and it was a recording so i called the other # i spoke to a guy he assured me they were not going to try it again and to get online for a refund. I did and they sent me a message saying that i did do it and they have the proof blah blah not what i want to hear i know i didn't do this and all their doing is giving me the run around.

I did not authorize this company to deduct any money from my bank account when I applied for a payday loan. I had never heard of this company, and was trying to get a payday loan, so I was in no need or had no desire to get some kind of debit card.

They deducted the amount of 54.95 from my account, and when I contacted them and asked for a refund, they did not respond to that. Instead they said I must've pressed the yes butt0n in error. They never stated that they would refund my money.

I was charged 49.99 without my knowledge from my bank account, I complained, they refunded the money one week later, along with that I adamantly stated that they were no longer ever to withdrawal from my bank account, I informed my bank about this issue also., two weeks later, within three days there were fraud checks numbered, 10001, 10002, 10003, 10004, 10005 and they were in the amount of $49.99 and $54.99... this has caused our account to go negative and has caused us financial problems due to overdraft charges and charges for my bank paying these fake checks to everprivatecard... I have now had to change accounts, however, they are refusing to pay for the damage that they caused my account, such as over draft charges and such including the cost of each fraudulent check that they used... I found out that they are out of Quebec Canada... and I am tomorrow contacting the Canadian police in Quebec to report them as I have the phone number of the company., but no address...this is fraud and I will not let this happen to me by them any longer, so to help others I am reporting them to the Canadian officials... Please stay away from this fraud, dishonest criminal company.

This complaint is directed towards a company called TVAddicts.TV (also called DVD Avenue). I have not been able to find where they are located, except that I think it is in Canada. On Feb. 10th, I ordered a set of DVDs for "Family Matters" for my grandson. When it finally came a month later, he found one disc to be bad. I sent the set back with a descriptive note requesting a replacement. I also sent an E-Mail explaining the nature of the problem. After waiting another month, I sent an E-Mail requesting an update. The defective set came back with the package marked "Unclaimed" and in worse shape than when I sent it back. All the cases were broken up.20.

They have continually jerked me around with their promises that it will soon. Nothing comes. And they always take ages to return my E-Mails. When I started making threats of requesting a full refund, they say, "Because of the inconvenience we have caused you, if you want to keep the set, we will refund you 20%". I find that totally unacceptable. I tried once already to sent it back and it cost me $10. Why would I send it back again.The run around is getting so ridiculous. What sort of Company is it anyway. I call this a scam.

Can you help me at all? This set cost us $120, plus the $10 to try and send it back. Please let me know what I can do smb. I am desperate.

Mike.

How can you say people authorized it? It is pop up! We all just exited and you all have the yes checked automatically. This is very upsetting to all these people who ever private card has screwed over. I myself am in the negative with my bank and I don't need a stupid pre-payed card have to pay 50 for. I payed 10 for the one have. I paid 50 for the real credit card I have.

Why do people have to trick others into giving them money instead of just doing a legitimate business. I actually think the idea of the business they are doing is good and had it been presented to me in a professional manner and the fee stated up front I may have bought into it anyway. But when I go to take my girlfriend to the movies and my card is denied because they took out $49.95 that I was unaware of, then I have no desire to EVER do business with them. Maybe that is why they have to be sneaky. They've been dishonest for so long, that the only way for them to make money is to continue being dishonest. Otherwise they'd probably be bankrupt.

I am 69 years of age, trying to live on fixed income and have suffered with Parkinson's for 7 years. I am very careful with my monies! I was greatly shocked when I went on line to check my bank account and saw the $49.95 charge on my account from New Dominion Bank! I called the number on their copy of the check and was told it was no longer in service and was given another number to call that turned out to be Wells Fargo. They had no information to help me. They suggested I try looking you up on the internet and see if you could be of any help! Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!

I was robbed by this company when I applied for a cash advance somehow the snick in a authorization thru usfastcash or cashfast123 to sell my information. Obviously, if I had 54.95 to give this corrupt creeps I would not be getting a payday loan at 700 percent interest. They (EverPrivateCard overdrew my account, my electric bill did not get paid (I got no payday loan) and my 6 children did without. The government needs to step up to the plate and shut this practice down. i contacted the bbb (better business bureau) filed an online complaint-now the company (SecretcashCard-another alias) wants to refund my money. But the BBB has 495 complaints for this same company already and I believe there are many more out there. Any LAWYERS out there want to take on a class action suit?

P.S. u also can look up info about this company at bbb but be warned their phone number(s) is fake!

THE AGREEMENT FORM IS PRECHECKED YES FOR THE EVERPRIVATECARD OR SecretCashCard. Also it is hidden from direct sight if the person doesn't realize to scroll down the page from clicking the agreement button for their payday loan application. These are pooor people applying for these loan-most of the time their banks have zero money in them-Thats why they apply! I wonder if the BANKING INDUSTRY IS IN ON this because I have read over 550 complaints on bbb (BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU) website and [redacted]. ALL OF THESE PEOPLE WERE CHARGED THOUSANDS IN OVERDRAFT FEES IN THEIR ACCOUNTS POSSIBLY THANKS TO JOSH FINER OF EVERPRIVATECARD.COM.

The company everprivatecard took 49.95 out my account without calling me or trying to contact me in some kind of way to see whether I wanted to do business with them. They took it upon themselves to withdraw this money out. When I call them I got a voice message directing me to a web site to file my complaint against the company you would think a company would have a customer service department that handle these kinds of complaints coming from the customers. Those scam artist haven't tried to contact me yet.

I applied for cash advance. I noticed a charge in the amount of 54.95 on my bank account. I never authorized this transaction. I have never heard of it either. I did a google search and saw all this horrible things about that company. The phone number provided to me by my bank was useless. I just wanted a cash advance not the hassle of charges i never authorized. Well needless to say my bank account is in the negative and the nsf fee well lets not get into that. I have yet to hear from a customer service representative. This experience has turned me against them payday loan lenders. I will never make such a mistake as that. anyone know how i can get my refund? I have already done the past suggestions.

On May 31, 2007: I filled out an application for a credit card so I may start repairing my credit...I was accepted for a Prominent Credit Card..No Problem. However, before I could exit out of the approved application, another application inserted itself, jumped in front of (whatever the terminology is), presented itself with my personal information that I only inserted for the credit card information...Before I could erase this information, NOT ONLY DID THIS FORMAT ACCEPT MY INFORMATION AND DEDUCT MONIES FROM MY CHECKING ACCOUNT, IT DID IT TWICE (two checks in the amount of $54.95) This made checks in my account not only bounce, but as of this date my bank has temporarily closed/frozen my account... I have received paperwork to remit to the bank verifying forged check charges for this company.. I not only gave the company a few weeks (as per their instructions) to remit both refunds, but, I gave them until today, July 26, 2007 17:52pm (their time) to answer my request. The upside of this is on Monday morning, July 30th, I am going to my bank with a copy of my last request and the paperwork so I can be refunded the monies deducted and further action deemed necessary by my banking institution will be pursued. The only downside is that I've had to explain to a few of my creditors why those few checks bounced. UNLIKE WHAT I'VE READ IN OTHER COMPLAINTS, I'M SLOWLY ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY..I AM ONLY UPSET THAT MY BANK HAS TO PAY FOR A THIEF'S DOING.
