Today (22/08/09) I received my latest Bank statment. The second to last entry informed me that a card payment of 19.95 had been withdrawn from this account by a Company called - rewardsnow.co.uk.
I have not heard of this company until today and I am absolutley positive I have never ordered anything from them.
How do I get my money returned?
My email address is - ken.[protected]@talktalk.net
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I have had same thing happen to me.24/12/2010 19.95 *2 deducted from my bank account i guess we are all victims of a scam any advice would be great fully received as regards any way to get money back and stop more from being taken out please...
today ive noticed that my account has been debited twice for £19.95, a total for £39.90 which ive not autherised!
ive tryed ringing the company and after being on hold for 30 mins, a very rude lady answered, not only to tell me ide signed up to let them take £19.95 a month for nothing in return she also said that they will not issue a refund.so is im giving them free money every month which i work god dam hard for im contacting the fraud team, lets see if they will give me a refund now!
Every time I get my credit card statement there has been a deduction of £19-95 from this company I want them to stop straight away and also refund my money other than that I will seek legal advice.
This [censor]ing set of [censor] holes have cost me money twice and i am now in to debt and in no possition to be getting out of it any time soon.. i could easily rip heads off and [censor] down throats i am fuming u ripping [censor] and the fact that it has been going on for years as i have just read this complaints board. it is a blaitent con and why it hasnt been put to a stop i dont know. Halifax bank have been veryb helpfull in this matter and there is an investigation going on. it still dosnt help me or my children though who are now going to have to go without. you [censor]!
would just like to say how helpful Rewardsnow.Co.UK [protected] were. i have just rang to see how they've been taking money from my account and explained how it happened. cancelled my membership (which i don't remember signing up to) but as a gesture of goodwill have refunded two payments which is better than nothing and are more than happy to confirm this in writing.
I have also had the same thing happen to me I found out off my bank statement money had gone so I rang my bank who gave me the details of the company so I rang them and they were rude and said I authorised it when I did not they took £14.95 x 2. Looking at all these complains something has to be done about these scammers?
just checked my bank statement, oing to ring number above at 9. £19.99 took out of my account too... never heard of them... mad as hell scammers...
Yes its happen to me.these scams having been taking £19.95 from my account for the last 4months, i viewed their web page to check my credit score, and couldn't get any response, but they have the courage to steal money from ym card, it is a wrong way of making money in times like this.please stop taking money from needy people who are just trying hard to manage their finances.
had 14.95 deducted from my account! never heard of this company! want money returned!
same thing has happened to me im so angry, something needs to be done everyone is getting it done to them and no refund is given when phone call is made. She was very rude and needs to learn some manners this needs sorting for future victims

same has happened to me from 'creditscorematters.co.uk'. I cancelled subscription for a 'free trial' credit check (Callcredit) and subsequently had £19.95 taken from my account by 'rewardsnow.co.uk' who I had never heard of but have since found out these companies are linked, along with Quickcreditscore.co.uk and Highcreditscore.co.uk under a company name called Adaptive Affinity Ltd. I have read on forums this complaint goes back to at least 2009 and it is still going on! My bank advised to ring rewardsnow.co.uk to cancel subscription (even though I didn't subscribe!) and to get a refund. If I am unsuccessful then the bank, who is aware of this company and it's scam!, will put a dispute in. I shall also go to the Office of Fair Trading, Trading Standards, Watchdog etc and anyone who may stop this from happening again and again!
regular deductions of 14.95 for a credit report that i never recieved!
I think these are linked to callcredit (i think) and they give you something like 10 days online access so you wouldnt have recieved a report via post would have been all online. Rewardsnow piggyback on callcredit offering you money off deals for a montly fee. You need to contact them to cancel and also inform your bank and trading standards that you have no knowledge of communicating with this firm.
the dirty scamming *****stards whatch this space the same happened to me and ive a baby to feed
i dint apply nothing but this company deducted 2 times
19.95 (total39.90_from )my banc account.How can i return my money?
RewardsNow and CreditScore Matters.. biggggg scam.> and please pass on to others.
I too have just check my account this morning, only to see that £19.95 has been taken twice and when I rang my bank to check they informed that although it appears that its two different companies, it is in fact one in the same.
I have just finishing sending Rewards now an email demanding that they send me a full refund and remove me from their subscription List immediately.

Hi i have noticed thae same and rang them they cancelled the member ship but refused to refund even though this was misssold! iver given the 2 days to contact me or im contacting the finiacial ombudsman which is free for consumers but costs the company a minimum of £400 either way rewards wont like it . i suggest you all do the same im sure they have heard of this complaint before!
Same happend to me, from quickcreditscore.com. Left them and the email sent contained my membership details for REWARDSNOW.CO.UK. Cancel my membership with them today only lost £19.95 to them and the same to quickcreditscore.com. I hope this helps.
Any employee of this company should be ashamed of themselves, had the same thing happened to me 4x £19.95 payments taken from my account! Not happy! They can go take a long swim in the Thames for all that I care
I have never heard of Rewardsnow but my latest bank statement shows they have taken 2 payments of 19.95 from it when I rang them the man just shouted me down when I tried to talk. He arked me to listen wwhich I did but he wouldn't let me talk. I am a pensioner and have no money to spare anhjd sometimes can't buy food but they took this from me.Now they say they will give me 1 19.95 back as a gesture of goodwill. Goodwill would be to reimburse me the lot.
I've also found out that i have had £19.95 withdrawn from my bank.which made me miss a payment for my car insurance so that means i also go charge for a missed payment by my bank and a £20 charge from my insurance company so for no reason i have had to pay out a fair bit of money by no fault of my own
Im 12, i have had 3 amounts of 19.95 taken out of my account. I dont know when or where they got my details from, can anybody help me on how to get my money back. my email is nichunter244@gmail.com
i feel silly because i have had in excess of 200 taken by them, they have even taken 19.95 twice a month on some occasions. I am also e-mailing watch dog and have cancelled cards occasions, i never check my statements and when i did i mistook it for something else and ignored it. bank said to fill in forms and they will try to claim it back, if this doesn't happen i willl be visiting their head office in person and will go mental. I am so mad, words can't describe, absolute dic*ks! - we should maybe all go there lol.
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
this is obviously a fraudulent company, but you know no one i interested in stopping this i rang credit company trading standards, rewardsnow but to no avail, but i will go to court if i have to. this is totally disgusting

unauthorised money has been taken out of my account twice now both for £19.95. I have never heard of this company before and the so called direct debit will be stopped and the money refunded asap
i signed up to quick credit score for the 10 day free trial cancelled it after 5 days had an email to confirm it was cancelled so thought that was the end of it. checked my statement today to see 19.95 had been taken out from rewards now i had never heard of them or could recall buying anything so decided to look on line to see who they are and have come across this site with all the comments. i will contact them on the number some of you have provided to try and sort this out before any more money goes from my account..
AKM UK Essentials took £14.95from my bank with no authorisation from me at all. I dont know who this company is and i have never contacted them .
I am so irate about this, but no idea how to claim the money back
I have e-mailed the company from their website but dont hold out much hope of getting it back
I am going to visit my bank wth this complaint to see if they can sort it out.
Rewardsnow is a scamming company. Don't know how the banks continue to allow Fraudulent Direct Debits to be set-up via this company. I paid this company continuously for 3 years before I realized it. The payments started of at £19.95 and when I stopped the Direct debit 3 years later, I was paying £29.99 a month. I managed to get 1 years money refunded by my bank (Bank of Scotland) instantly, because the branch Manager checked the company online and advised me it was a scam. I am in the process of trying to get my Bank to refund the whole amount of monies because I am attempting to prove that, No.1, I did NOT sign a direct debit agreement online or on paper.. No.2, I was NOT advised that a direct debit was set-up on my Bank account. The bank is currently dealing with my case and I will keep you in-touch with my progress. If this fails, I will take my evidence to the Banks regulator for final assistance. I don't intend to lose this fight...
