This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I was scrolling through my bank statement and discovered a charge for $29.95 on December 28, 2010. I had never ordered or authorized any one to take $29.95 or any money from my account.

I have tried to contact scoresense to return my money to no avail. I am tired of these things happening. I have had subscriptions to magazines with money taken from my account despite the fact that I had never ordered any magazines. If you don't check your account, these people get away with it. It's so frustrating.

i was unaware that these charges were made on a debit card that i never use on the internet. someone else must have filled out the information for this company site back in november but IT WAS NOT ME! please be aware that i have contacted the company to fix the problem.

While going on my online banker, a screen popped up saying there were fraudulent charges on several credit cards, one of which was mine. Believing this was from my bank, I entered the information requested. Who checks what website you're on. You get it from your bank, you believe it's your bank. They took $30.95 out of my account. I notified my bank as I believe this is a scam and they should be aware of it. I don't want to cancel my cards, as I have reoccurring charges monthly.
Plus I have cataracts and do not see that well!

Initially they ask you to pay $1.00, to cover the charge of the credit check. Then a week later I checked my account and found they had taken $29.95 from me, without letting me know! I was not aware of this hidden and conniving method...

To the employees of scoresense: I never put any credit card info online, and scoresense still was able to charge my account. Spoke to the bank and they said to cancel the card, which I did, and I urge everyone else who was scammed to do the same. That way you cannot be charged again. I caught the first charge today, and immediately canceled my card. Good luck to all of you.

I was charged $29.95, too. I went to annualcredit report.com, which was supposed to be free. I ended up with the charge from scoresense. I have no idea how this happened. Now they are refusing to refund my money. I originally heard about annualcreditreport from Clark Howard's show. I am livid!

I canceled the membership in the appropriate time span and they still charged me $29.95 for the membership.

I was told this was a free service. I didn't mind the $1.00 charge but even after cancelling they still charged me $29.95.

They are lying thieves and I want my money back. I cannot afford it.

These people are frauds and dirty. Do not deal with them. These ### took $29.95 out of my account that i did not authorize for credit scores. I did not ask for it and they are not going to get away. I am filing a suit against them. I work to hard for my money and do not have any to give away. These dirty ### will pay when i am finished with them.

I just got taken also, but am going thru my Credit Union and have them deal with an outfit like this. We'll see who wins then and believe me, I will never trust any of these credit score links again. They have this come on anyway, on the first page you sign up and the next page they want your credit card numbers. I think that this sucks.

Scoresense

There has been a $1.95 a month put on my American Express card. For some time now. I called to talk to some one about this charge and the recording due to high calls all agents are busy. I was told to have my membership number ready, ? I never had one as I never ask for this service so take it off the account now. Account last 6 # is 3-33000. So renmove this charge.
Thank you

FreeScore.com duped me the same way! Now I'm out $59 because I didn't see it hit me in Jan but I did notice when my bank account went below the norm on Feb. 22!
I also called to get my account canceled and request a full refund but they kept countering with "this is a 7 day trial" and kept badgering me with offers and discounts to get me to stay.
Someone needs to sue these jerks!

Not only is this company a fraud but their customer service SUCKS as well! After I found these extra charges on my account which clearly I didnt see the fine print they claim was on my screen they told me I will not be getting my refund. This was even after the fact the rep said I didnt use any of the "great perks" the members have access too! Ummm excuse all I needed was to compare their scores to what I already knew my score was previously. So I didnt need any more perks. FYI if a customer is not happy with the service it should not matter how long it takes for them to discover charges not approved, their choice should be honored because end the end its THEIR MONEY and THEIR CHOICE ON HOW TO SPEND IT. It shouldnt matter if they called 2 days after the free trial besides who really can remember how long a site claims a free trial to be if your only on their for a minute anyways.
BTW, the customer service are Sales Reps and will try their bes to sale you a dream and to stay with the company almost as worse as the pesty guy on the street trying to hound you to buy his newspaper and wont leave you alone! OMG shut this company down ASAP! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM PPL... MAKE A BETTER CHOICE THAN I DID! If they werent such A-holes I might of not disputed the charges with my bank after it was all said and done. They have NO compassion! I mean come on its human error we all have been mislead at times..SMDH **** SCORESENSE MAKES NO DAMN SENSE AND SHOULD BE CALLED MISLEADSENSE.COM

The same thing happened to me and they took out 29.95 w/o my permission or knowledge. I called the number and spoke to a girl who talked so softly and so fast I could not grasp her sentences. I was furious and told her to slow down and speak up.. What she was saying was she would have the billing dept. look at it and email me. I said I am NOT giving you my email address. I just changed it yesterday due to 15 spammers a day, ever since I went online to look into car insurance, and I am not going through that again..she said they can't write me... so I said if the money isn't back in the back in 4 days time, I am issuing a dispute with my bank, Wells Fargo. I told her that I am NOT a member, do not have an ID number and never did anything but pay a dollar through my bank for their credit report, which is what they had advertised.. they never advertised becoming a member and 29.95 whether once or more, I don' t know or care.. I am not putting up with this crap.

This company is a toatal fraud. They sent themselves up as a free credit report and then switch and bait by charging you $29.95 per month. When you claa their sales force, they claim that you had 7 days to cancle once you do lthe initail free report, but there site is not clear that you are actually signing up for a service. Additioanlly, once you cancle you end up paying another full month becasue they charge a month ahead so lthey lcaim you missed the cut-off period. SCAM SCAM SCAM

The same thing happened to me...when I saw there was a free trial period ...and then later I would be charged...I closed out the window ... when I called in the agent disagreed and stated that I had agreed to a $29.95 a month service charge. This is one of the most agregious rip offs I have ever heard of...why would anyone pay that much money ... almost $360 a year for a report that could be obtained almost anywhere for a minimum amount of money. They have you give your credit card number...thinking you would see the "free report" as it would identify you. Unbelievable that this can go on...Also, she kept saying many times the confirmation "email" would be in my "spam" folder...Don't know about anyone else...but I don't open Spam Folders or Junk emails. This definetly is a scam and I am sure if they sent me verification to my email I would have cancelled the next day!

My husband and I joined Scoresense, May 5, 2012 and I read over everything I thought completely as possible, but come to find out under the terms dis-closer they have the 7 day rule on cancellations. We did not receive not one early notice that they were going to debit our cards until I check my account and found out they had taken $29.95 out of my account and $29.95 out of my husband when this was determined I then contacted customer service and they were just nasty. I going to file a former complaint with the BBB and whomever else will listen to me. This is fraudulent company and the need to be exposed for what they are worth. The company should have the 7 day cancellations on the very first page where it would be disable to the customers and not hidden away. I want my refund back!

Agree with them all...just looked at my account and yes $1.00 taken out and then $29.95 taken out...Call number on account and its closed at this time. Brought up web site and wow consumer complaints jump at me and wow wow...wife said she was applying for a job and had to apply for the $1.00 free check as part of a job applications. So with all this said and done how does someone stop this deduction from our accounts.

I have been taken also. Class action suit everyone? What a horrible company. I had to get a credit score for a job I was applying for. No call back for the job and now I'm short $29.95 from my account. Why is this fraudulent company still in business?
