MovieStarPlanet payment issue

My bank account was charged yesterday (28.08.2018); $49.00 went towards a diamond package without my consent and authorisation. I would like to warn everyone who plays this game or have kids using this website "DO NOT PAY FOR ANYTHING" because it's not worth it. I tried calling the support centre and messaging MSP customer service on Facebook (which doesn't even have an inbox) and Twitter and I swear "THEY DO NOT GIVE YOU ACCESS TO A PERSON AT ALL."

This gaming website is such a scam and it's sketchy, they'll charge you unexpectedly.

MovieStarPlanet login issues

I must be the only user who doesn't understand this but, why can't all accounts login to the website from a different country? I didn't know this but I accidentally signed up to the US site instead of the UK site yesterday, and I thought if I change the countries I could still log back in - nope. But if I click on the membership button(s), all the prices are in the pound signs instead of dollars? First of all, I don't hsve a problem with the membership links but it is confusing and weird of that to happen. But what's really silly is, I've been playing MSP on and off for years upon years now and I have seen the changes, but the homepage with the login change is ridculous! Can't sign in because you can't change the country in the settings because it's not a valid setting? Can't sign in because you're from a diffrent country? How rude and unprofessional is that! What if someone new didn't know that and ended up signing up with not their country, and wondering why they can't log into their account or wonder why it isn't in their language/currency? Seems like the site is doing some dirty Trump business... Please sort this out, it's disgusting, especially for a children's website.

MovieStarPlanet permanent lock for no reason.

Yesterday me Andy family went out of town. I can't download movieatarplanet on my phone but my sister can. She was on it during the car trip I never asked to log into my account. One day she said I was online when she physically saw me not online. The girl on my account was trying to get my account locked and trying to hack. Someone got it on youtube and now I'm locked out for no reason. I would like to have my mocha2437 account back I played good money for that VIP. Please I never did it and I want my account back. I've worked hard for it.

MovieStarPlanet my niece had her account hacked

my niece had an account that got hacked on Sunday August 12th, 2018. Her account was pinkiscute90. We had just purchased VIP for a month and within a few short hours the account was hacked. She tried to get on her account and her password was invalid. She made a new account and while on it she saw her old account being used. She asked the person why they hacked her account and the response was that they were bored and she is a hacker. The conversation is on my nieces new account: duhitzzzff1. We do not want the account back but would like this user to be deleted. Also I would like a refund of my 10.00 for the VIP that I had just purchased. She is a very rude person in the conversation. Also, when we purchased the VIP I had put automatic renewal, I need to have that stopped.

MovieStarPlanet movie star planet keeps on giving my account vip and is charging for it

About 2 months ago I got 1 month VIP, and about five weeks later it was still there I thought it was a bit weird, and then two weeks later I got more star coins and more gems, so at that moment I realized that msp is giving me VIP that I don't want, but is it charging us.I would like you to stop it or tell us how to stop it, because right now every month my VIP runs out msp automatically gives me new VIP.thank you

MovieStarPlanet messages.

Moviestarplanet has been playing up on me all day. Today when i logged in, there was an indication that i had 3 (example) messages that had not been opened. I clicked the tab that sends me to my messages but it stated "Tap + to send new messages". It showed that i had no conversations or anything, it only showed that message. Ive asked multiple people if they have the same problem that i have and quite a few people do. Can you please resolve this problem. Thank you.

MovieStarPlanet scammer

I'm "gggger back up" and higuys6211 scammed me. She promised me a 25 dollar iTunes gift card if I gave her a bunch of diamond pack rares. I gave her the rares and then she gave me the code, so I put the code in and it said invalid. I went to tell her then next thing I knew I was blocked. I'm very upset about this. If there's anything you can do, please.

MovieStarPlanet deducting money from my bank account

My name is Terri Hutto you have deducted $40 from my bank account that I did not authorize. All we did was purchase the vip to get diamonds. I did not check the box to be billed every month for membership. I have stopped the recurring payments and want my forty dollars refunded. You don't have a contact number you don't have emails or even customer support for your customers, I understand why now. I did not authorize this payment and want it refunded. Terri Hutto my daughter's username is hannahslays123. You can email me at [protected]@gmail.com

MovieStarPlanet daughters account got hacked

My Daughter opened an account in December AppleXXmint the password she used was looploop1 although changed it a few times but also changed it back to looploop1 before she lost access to the account.

On the 28/12/2017 I brought her a VIP order number [protected] gift certificate Redemption code RTJTTAQLYU. More recently she has been locked out of the account but on other profiles she notices there has been outfit changes and status changes that she did not do, meaning that someone is using her account with all of the vip benefit's that I brought, the person who ha control of the account also has bought another diamond pack.

She reported the account, using the report an account link, after she lost access using a different profile. But the account is still activate and buying things for itself. My email address for response is [protected]@hotmail.com

MovieStarPlanet adult content

I have now banned my children from playing this game due to the content I viewed. I have put a block on my wifi. I was extremely alarmed to see game members advising children to drink washing detergent and other toxic liquid. Sexual content and messages sent to children, swearing and photos of nudity. The list is endless and I would advise any parent to review this game before allowing your child to play. The other catch of this game is the constant monetary subscriptions to further game play.

Although I am in no place to choose what websistes your Child(ren) can and can’t visit, I would personally let my own children on it.
However beforehand, I would make sure I talked to them about sexual relationships, drugs, etc; They can find it anywhere on the internet and they can find out about it in real life - I would rather tell them what to do if they were caught in a situation where they came across anything inappropriate, rather than keep it from them and have them find out the hard way.

I believe that If they’re not old enough to understand the differences between appropriate and inappropriate, and the dangers of the real and online world, then they’re probably not old enough to be on the internet at all.

If you register your email on your child(rens) account, you can use it to email MovieStarPlanet so you can set up their in-game restrictions. These restrictions can include banning your child from recieving and sending messages to and from other people, and access to their YouTube feature (provided you enable them)

If your child(ren) are using the MovieStarPlanet app on an iPad, you can enable restrictions in the iPads settings, these restrictions can prevent your child from clicking parts of the screen, and limits the amount of time the child(ren) can access the app.

If your child is not old enough to be unsupervised while playing online, that’s exactly it - don’t trust this website enough to leave them unsupervised (I don’t feel there’s a need to explain why)

When you buy a VIP membership or diamond pack top up, your online friends will be notified, and a VIP badge will be displayed on your profile telling other users (including people you have not added) how much VIP you have. Unfortunately, your added friends can click on a feature called “highscorers” and view exactly how much starcoins, diamonds, and fame your accounr has. For those reasons, I wouldn’t go around adding strangers on any MovieStarPlanet account(s) you own.

And it isn’t a secret, regardless if you “keep your password safe” or not, hacking is not impossible, and can be done by anyone smart enough - on ANY social media website. Scammers and hackers can locate your device and install things on it that enable them to record everything displayed on your screen and what you type, so im advance I recommend you take your device to a technician so they can install an anti-virus software to prevent people from putting you and your information in danger

There are many “hacking” reports where people have posted about relatives or/and friends being hacked, but they don’t seem to consider that their actions have caused this, not MovieStarPlanet itself. For instance, if you share parts of (or all of) your password in or/and outside of the game, and/or if your password is considered “easy to guess” - you have the potential of being hacked

Someone else might have access to the email registered on your childs account, and therefor can have access to their account. They can then change the email you have registered on the account to their email, change the password to the account, and toggle with any restrictions activated. In this instance, you can contact MovieStarPlanet support and see what they can do from there. However, keep in mind that if the account was hacked as a consequence of sharing your email password, they are unlikely to give your account back. IF the email was hacked because of any other reason, they are more likely to go forward with your situation and give back your account.

There is also a report and block button on every players profile. By blocking them you can no longer contact that user, and they can no longer contact you, they can’t see your posts, and you can’t see theirs. By removing the block, you enable these features. However, if they have blocked you, they must remove the block before those features can be enabled again.

If you don’t like what a user has posted, you can report the post and their account (make sure the post is against the rules before reporting them). Each report is reviewed by a moderator and is handled accordingly. If you don’t like the way a moderator has processed your report, you can contact MovieStarPlanet on their support page and email them about your issue, further actions may be taken based on your situation.

are you seriously joking? i hope so, to start, there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with someone being transgender, you've a horrible mindset if you think otherwise, and besides, your kid can simply block people like how you described, you're making a big deal out of something so small and easily controllable. You're the pathetic one here, not MovieStarPlanet. And you make literally NO influence on them, they're not about to shut down a super successful platform over a few complaints. The game has over 10, 000, 000 downloads for chrissake. I hope to god, your kid doesn't grow up like you, shunning away a game because it doesn't support your beliefs. Besides that, i believe you went out of your way to look for such inappropriate content. I see nothing wrong with someone chatting that "If you friend me ill send you a gift" and then the other picture of the guy with a girlfriend, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, it is playful, not meant to turn into something inappropriate. And Ariana Grande, sure shes trash but MSP didn't even put a slutty thing in their damn theme, people just turn it filthy. Stop putting a gross spin on things, check your [censored]ing facts.

MovieStarPlanet do not play this game

Avoid them. Don't let your children play this game.
No, it doesn't affect their behavior or school grades. They just steal your money. At first, this website may seem nice. You get what you paid for.
Needless to say, it's impossible to use this service without paying for anything, or it's just useless or uninteresting. My baby was really excited, so I thought I would pay for this. So like I said at first everything was fine, but then they started to send emails asking for more. Why? To make you pay for a better game.
No, I won't fall for this anymore. I explained this to my daughter and she agreed it was unfair.

MovieStarPlanet ending auto pay

I am shocked that a company of this size does not share a way to reach customer service.

We have been billed via auto pay for over a year and I had noticed it a month ago. When I went to my daughter's account, it says we are not on auto pay and as such there is no way to stop auto payment that way.

I reached out to my credit card company and put a stop payment and launched a dispute.

I encourage everyone that is having such issues to post on twitter. These sort of companies need to learn a lesson on how to treat customers.

MovieStarPlanet this website isn't safe!

My little sister used to play on this website, but then she started telling me about some horrible things that happened with her. She said that she received creepy messages from a man. He told: „I'm coming to get you!” Then her profile was hacked and someone changed her status. A message on her status said: „Now I'm coming to get you in real life!” I joined this site ad contacted the customer support but they didn't provide any help. My sister also told that she received several messaged asking her address and phone number. This website isn't safe and it is really dangerous! There are many thieves on the site! Don't let your kids play on this website!

usually people are smart enough to know not to give their [censored]ing address to some random perv they met on a game, likewise too, they're smart enough to block the person BEFORE it gets out of hand.
