These two debits are pending on my checking account and i have no idea what they are and they have not been authorized by me.
I got involve with the same situation, I never heard these before. But they just send me the member card with the similar member number, is it a swindle?
I am not sure where this charge came from? $11.99 and $10.99! Freak this...
TLG Great FN and TLG Shopper.
Didn't notice till today, been going on for a year. Lost money, NEED HELP?!
WHAT DO I DO?
Who are you and please remove the 2 $11.99 charges on my checking account.
TLG Shoppers advantage is from a Discount program with Days Inn and other motel chains. If you have EVER made a reservation with a motel and you are receiving notices of these withdrawals, you can call [protected]. That is the Membership Inquiries number on the back of the card. You should be able to cancel any membership you have and stop the withdrawals. Just a suggestion
TAKE ME OFF OF THIS PROGRAM.
how do there do this and how can I stop it?
I don't know where this company is from, each month i have a $11.99 charge on my bank statment, this month I have 2 charges for $11.99 within a 5 day period. I just checked myprevious bank statements, they have been charging me every month since March 19, 2008.
We too just found out we have been swidled out of money and not sure for how long. We are angry at the losey motel Days Inn which advertise as a hotel but is really a roach trap for road dogs and other creatures. We will get to the bottom of this and get our money back. We will report back our efforts. By the way the hotel/motel is of the highway just in Salsibury Pa., cant miss it from the road, then again MISS IT.
hi...it happened with me also..and it was 75$
there was some other transaction also on my card earlier...just call your bank ppl and argue that it wasnt authorised by you.they will give you a contact number of that unauthorised transaction..or watever..you can just call them and bash them..i got my money back like that...
This is the second time they have hit me. now it is $12.99. they should be in jail and VISA and Mastercard should stop doing business with them 3/28/09
I too just noticed on my bank statement a debit for $14.99 for each company for the past 4 months. The Shopper's Adv. said they would credit me 2 mths and Great Fun said they would credit only one month. I do not know how companies like this are allowed to continue to do business!
Ditti on the Days Inn and I am in Michigan!
I have just had 2 hits on my DEbit/Checking account, in th lasr two days. I have no idea how or why theses charges have been made against my account. I have never done any business with TLG*Great fun or TLG*Shoppers. I will be going to my C U first thing in the morning and I will be calling any and all numbers till I get some satisfaction.

They got me for $129.99! I called day before yesterday, and since it seemed like a scam, I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly they offered to remove me from their system, eliminate any further charges and refund the $129.99. However, the refund hasn't come through yet (they said it would take 48 hours), and, based on what I'm reading here and on other websites, I don't assume that it will be that easy. We'll see.

I was charged 119.99 on my credit card by this company never heard of them. Somehow it came from booking a room in Cherokee through Choice Hotels. I called them up told them I was not a member. To cancel my member ship and credit back my card. They said they were sorry and they would credit my card back and cancel my member ship. They said for my inconvenience they would send me a $25 card. So we shall see.
I got these charges on my credit card as well. I had signed up for them through one of Billy Mays's infomercials, imparticular Mighty Mend-It. They say they are going to mail you the information and give you 40$ in free gas cards and you will have a 2 month free trial. I never received the information or the coupons and then I started getting billed for it 2 months later. I called the number above and canceled it and they said they will refund my card as well.
Update: I called the great fun number as well and canceled my membership with them before I received a bill. I will update with whether I receive my refund or not from Shopper or not and if a mystery charge shows up in the future from these companies.
I got scammed by this people as well. I noticed a couple of charges from TLG Great Fun for $12.99 back in April, I called them and canceled and they even gave me a refund of $12.99 (one time). I did not notice until now that they continued to charge my debit card the same $12.99 under a different name TLG Shopper Advantage. I called them today and they said they will cancel my membership (for which I have never signed up) and told me to write a letter and fax it to them for the refund of the rest of the money they charged. We'll see. Someone has to stop these people. I can only imagine how many millions of dollars they collect in unauthourised fees every month. The fees are small enough for people not to notice or not get around to calling and jumping through all the hoops of canceling this 'membership'.
stealing the credit card information, and charging the fee with no reason
OMG...this just happened to me
I rented a moving vehicle from Budget Truck Rental and was offered some type of Shopper's discount for traveling back in November of 2008. I declined the offer. All of a sudden, today, 8/5 I received a call from my bank advising that my account was overdrawn due to two charges applied to my account from TLG*Shoppers, one on 7/23 and the other on 7/28 which I did not authorize. When I called to inquire why all of a sudden these charges were applied to my account, they advised me that I did enroll and that they had been trying to bill me for months now but the transactions have not gone through. This made no sense at all to me. They cancelled my membership but what's so ironic...I never enrolled so how can you cancel something I never requested. I was surprised to see this list of complaints when I Googled the company. I think we need to put a stop to this by filing some type of class action lawsuit. I spoke with a James Cruz with the Office of the President expressing my concerns for others and this site i stumbled upon and he didn't seem very concern so apparently this is something that has not been dealt with. I am sooooooooooo upset about this.
my debit card was also charged $11.99 by these people.
I don't know what to do about that.I told my bank about that and waiting for their reply.Actually i have already opted out of their commercial emails.Will they charge me again?
I got charged $11.99 after i booked a ticket by priceline.I did not authorise them to use my details for TLG.
I still did not travel with that tickets I purchased.Its for august 28th.
Does that mean priceline is also fraud?
Is my tickets still valid?
My mother and I have just discovered that her account has been charged for over $150 from this company that she has never signed up for or made any authorizations for which we find ridiculous- especially since we havent stayed in a hotel in over 2 years! We're using the membership inquiries number we saw above to try to get a refund and cancel our membership. Please let us know how your attempts have worked out and we will do the same.
I just checked my account and have 2 charges for $14.99, one for TLG Great Fun and the other for TLG Shopper. It's 2 am on Saturday so I can't contact my bank until Monday to try to get these charges reversed. I have no idea what these charges are about! I can't wait to call this company to cancel whatever they think I signed up for - although from these posts it looks like the charge you without you even signing up somehow. I hope everyone who is dealing with these idiots keep this website updated with their experiences; and if anyone has any ideas on how to stop this, please post suggestions! I have been unemployed (a victim of the infamous 'downsizing') for 19 months and cannot afford this kind of thing. I am afraid now that with the amount that they took from my account could cause payments I made on bills being returned for insufficient funds. Then you get charged fees by the bank in addition!
I have received a charge of $16.99 fro TLG Shoppers and this is not authorized and the card number they used was only used on Classmates and I am still trying to find out how they got the card # to charge me this amount. I have contacted my bank but they tell me I have to fill out dispute forms and it will take 10 days to get me a new account. Can someone tell me who to contact if i do not get satisfaction?
Upon reviewing my bank account today I noticed a charge of 139.99 from your company. I have no idea what this is for. I have never used your company, didn't know it existed until today. I have contacted my bank and notified them of this unauthorized account activity. DO NOT use my account for any more transactions. I have contacted the BBB in my local region, and will persue this until a resolution is obtained to my satisfaction. If you have any misunderstanding of my intentions contact me at [protected]. Jack Slycord.
In my efforts to stop this scam, I called and cancelled the service and got a confirmation number of the cancellation. I was billed $15.99 on my VISA the next month. I called TLG again and complained. They gave me another cancellation confirmation number and a phone message that said I would get a credit in a couple of months. Instead of waiting for them to bill me again for another two months, I tried to cancell my VISA. I was only able to file a dispute claim with VISA . I was unable to cancel the service or the VISA card. These guys are working on the margins against the consumer and VISA. It begins to look as if VISA is getting some benefit from allowing this questionable operation to damage their reputation. Good luck and beware.
how do i cancel this i dont use you and you have charged me 3 times in the mont of sept. and i want it returned. and get me off this. you have charged me 11.99 on the 1st, the 22nd and the 30th.
I CALLED [protected] (TLG*SHOPPER) AND [protected] (TLG*GREATFN) ASK FOR MY STATUS, THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY SEND ME COUPONS AND SOME OTHER TRASH I SAID WHY THEY CHARGED ME $14.99 TWICE EVERY MONTH WHEN I NEVER RECIEVED ANYTHING OH BUT THEY STILL FOUND THE COURTESY TO SEND ME MORE...WTF... I CALLED TO CANCEL (THEY OFFER THEMSELVES TO CANCEL MY ACCOUNT LIKE IF THEY KNEW WHAT I WAS CALLING FOR) THEY GAVE ME A FAX# SO I CAN SEND MY BANK STATEMENT WHERE IT SHOWS HOW MUCH THEY GOT FROM MY ACCOUNT..THIS IS THE NUMBER [protected], ...GOOD LUCK EVERYONE...I'LL COMMENT IF ANYTHING GOOD OR BAD HAPPENS...
ps: IF YOU FAX ANYTHING MAKE SURE YOU (ERASE/HIDE ETC) YOUR BANK ACCOUNT CHECKING AND SAVING NUMBER...AGAIN GOOD LUCK...
They just got me as well... $129.99! Right before Christmas! I called them and the first person I talked to wasn't going to refund me, so I had to get a little upset. I then talked to a superviser who said she would credit my account within 48 hours. She also said she would take me off their "customer list". I told her I had heard that before... last year when I had to go through all this. My advice would be to call them and demand a credit to your account. Don't take no for an answer. Also tell them you want off of their customer list and any TLG accounts your name may be on. (The first person told me I actually had two accounts and when I called and canceled last year, I was only canceling one account but not the other). These people should be strung up!
They haven't stopped yet. I let myself be talked into a trial membership from these people on the promise of free gas coupons and a discount on my rental truck back in October. I never received either of these. I cancelled the free trial membership after only two weeks. Yet at the beginning of this month, nearly a month after I cancelled, I found a rogue charge on my checking account history. Thank God for online banking, otherwise it would have been a month before I caught this!
How totally reprehensible these people are. I wonder how they sleep at night, knowing they make their livings stealing from decent, hardworking people?
I bought two airline tickets from Priceline.com last October. I have suddenly become cognizant that during November and December my Visa account has been charged $11.99 twice each month, once for TLG Shopper and the other for TLG Great Fun. The phone numbers for each entity were different as well as my enrollment (which I didn't do) numbers. I called and was told I did indeed enroll. They said they would cancel. We'll see. It makes you afraid to book or buy anything online with a credit card. I'm ashamed of Priceline.
I had the same thing happen to me, I got online to check my account balances and notice A 15.99 charge to my credit card, when I called Navy federal they told me I must have authorized it online, and thew last and only purchase I had made in the past year online was to 4wheelparts.com. Navy federal told me it was my problem and gave me this TLG number to call. I called them and told them i wanted my money back and to cancel whatever membership they were talking about
I had a similar experience dealing with TGL*Greatfun. $11.99 was being charged to my creditcard without my knowlwdge. I signed up for the Great Fun trial when using Priceline.com for airplane tickets. I called Greatfun to cancell my trial membership after two weeks and before the trial membership was over. I was given a cancellation code and thought everthing was done cancelling any membership charges. I noticed on my VISA statements I was still being charged months after the supposed cancellation. I called Greatfun again and was asked for the previous cancellation code. I told them I didn't save it thinking all was taken care of. The person I talked to from the customer service department said they would cancell it again and gave me another cancellation code (I also sent a cancellation fax to Greatfun letting them know I was going to contact the Better Business Bureau if charges were continued on my VISA). The next month I checked my VISA statement and again there was another charge from Greatfun. I contacted the Better Business Bureau with an online complaint about Greatfun (Greatfun is a subsidiary of Affinion Group Inc. located in CT). I have been offered a refund from the Affnion Group INC. of $59.99 even though they took $71.92 from me. I refused the refund and requested the total amount taken from me. If I took the $59.99 the company would still make money considering they deal with thousands of people daily and them giving partial refunds would still make them Millions of dollars. USE THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU SO GREATFUN & THE AFFINION GROUP WILL HAVE TO DO BUSINESS PROPERLY AND QUIT ABUSING ITS CUSTOMERS.
We have lost almost $200.00 since July. My girlfriends sister used our debit card to hold a hotel room so she could get out and attend her son's baseball event. So just by using a credit card to hold a room, a room she paid for with cash when she got there suddenly allowed them to on there owntake her sisters information name address etc. and create account that has been being paid for monthly with our card not even tbe same name on the card same address or anything. I don't konw about you but that sounds a bit like fraud to me. there were phone numbers attached to the account references on my statement and I have been in touch when the TLG Shopper which is actually known as Shoppers Advantage.

I don't have the address for the TLG Every Day Guest
Or TLG*EVGUEST as it showed on my bank account
But the Toll Free number is

When you contact these phone numbers they will ask youi for your account number.
Your account numbe is on your bank statment it should look something like this is its like mine
TLG*SHOPPER#######NO
TLG*EVGUEST#######OC
it shows the company's code name then a seven digit number that is your account number and then the last two lettes represent the month of the charge.
I will update when I get the other information from the EV Guest company.
Let me know if this helps any one.
Okay well it has happened to me also. Apparently it was when booked a room through Priceline.com
I am getting charged by TLG*SHOPPER and TLG*GREATFN, TLG*SHOPPER charged my 8.25 a month except 11.99 one month and TLG*GREATFN charged me 11.99 a month for a total of 125.18.
I will be filing a report with Better Business Bureau and will call these shameless people tomorrow and try to get all my money back, which I am sure will be hard reading about the other experiences. I will also be calling my bank to see what they can do about preventing them from stealing my money, if they can not stop them then I will probably cancel my card just to be safe, because I am sure they will continue to try to charge me after I cancel my "membership".
Anyways good luck to everyone.

Thanks for the number, MikeyLIkesIt25!
I called the toll free number and spoke with David. I told him he did not have to read anything and that I just wanted the membership canceled. He told me that it was canceled and I asked for a cancelation number and he gave me one. He then transferred me to the automative confirmation.
It was actually very simple. But this did come after the TLG*SHOPPERADV charged me and I canceled that. The credit refund actually came only a few days after I called. I guess I hit the billing cycle at the right time.
I know it started when I booked a room with Choice Hotels. Be careful when calling them for a reservation. They talk extremely fast and can get you very confused. Tell them you don't want any thing beyond your reservation.
Hope this helps someone else.

These people are cheaters. I rented a truck at Budget 6 months ago. At that moment, they asked me if I wanted to join Travelers Advantage Program with a lot of promising benefits. I agreed to join, then I received a membership card via mail. I found it rubbished and called them to cancel the membership. Now, it is 6 months from the day I canceled the membership, they charged me $15.99 for nothing.
I just called them a minute ago and asked why they charged me. Ms Angela Jeffrey said something that did not make any sense. Then I asked for a refund and received a cancellation confirmation number and a promise that I would be credited back.
Those people just earn money by doing cheating business. If someone does not know or does not care about the bank statement, he/she may lose his/her money.
cancelled last month. got several refunds, but still charging my account this month. They say "since you have paid thru ..." NO! Make it stop! If I get another charge, I will involve and attorney.
These people are ### the rely on "slipping under the radar" by charging small amounts to your card. Look for TLG on your statement, they will often charge more than twice per month through Shoppers Advantage and another Travel title. Get a cancellation # and dont fall for the BS offer of any type of certificates for gas or anything to not cancel the mebership, it will never come.
