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

I signed up for the horizonoutlet.com posted"credit card," but this is not at all what I thought i was getting. So, i ordered this card, to my surprise, bought into a card that lets me shop at their web sight. Ok, this is not all: the stuff is literally junk. I can buy this at the dollar store if i wanted to. I was also disappointed to find out it cosed me around 75.00 to wait 2 weeks for a product that has as much use to me as a rock.

I WANT MY MONEY BACK! CLEARLY I HAVE BEEN HOODWINKED OUT OF MY HARD EARNED MONEY, SHAME ON YOU! ESPECIALLY, MONTEL WILLIAMS, SHAME ON YOU
FOR SUPPORTING THAT KIND OF TRICKERY ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. I WATCHED YOUR TELEVISON SHOW EVERY DAY AND I CRIED WHEN YOUR SHOW WAS CANCELED. NOW, I WILL NEVER WATCH ANY OF YOUR TV SHOWS OR BELIEVE ANYTHING THAT YOU HAVE SAY EVERY AGAIN. I THOUGHT YOU WERE A BETTER MAN. TIMES ARE HARD FOR ME BUT NOT SO HARD THAT I WOULD STEAL FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE WORKING TO MAKE A FRESH START. I WANT MY MONEY BACK IMMEDIATLY OR HEAR FROM MY ATTORNEY.

I recently received the net first platinum card [censor] application, and the first thing people always look for is the mastercard or visa logo
on the credit card offering if you don't see it then the first thing you can be sure of it is not a bonafide credit card offer and its not legitimate without the licensed logo of visa or mastercard.So always let the buyer
beware.

I just want to thank all of you for your information. I nearly made the same mistake, but after reading the small print and seeing i had to only use the card at horizon outlet i googled the name and came here. I appreciate it.

I was mislead into thinking this was a real credit card horizon should let people know that they can only use this card at their outlet store I thought I was getting a major credit card so I called and spoke to a rap. and find out this is a rip off horizon is a joke.

i just got my card and this is [censor] i hate it and ive been trying to get my money back for a month now. if i knew at the beginning that it was just a scam i wouldnt have gotten it. i tried to cancel it and they wouldnt listen to me so i just cut the card up. Something needs to get done about it. i dont understand why they even say its a credit card when you can only use it on their website i seriously dont consider that a credit card. they are nothing but scam artists and lairs and next time im just gonna look the other way and just find another way to build my credit..

I received a post card in the mail today stating that I had been approved for this card. I immediately knew it was not a regular credit card because on the picture it did not say Master Card or Visa, etc. I went on the site and checked it out. At the top are their disclosures and I read what was said. It stated I could use it on their online store and that it would cost me 14.95 for services included that I did not want plus a 6.95 per month processing fee on top of that. Being skeptical, I tried to access the merchandise website and couldn't so I put in a search for complaints with this company and found this site. Thank you all for the feedback on here. It helped me to realize that my suspicions were correct. I will not be sending for my card.

I was also scamed by these people and they refused to refund my money unless I stayed signed up with them and now its been almost three weeks and I still do not have my refund. So I advise anyone who is considering dealing with these people DO NOT DO IT! You cancome out better just going to the dollar store or thrift store and get the same iteams they are tring to sell for less!

It was offered and you ordered it. I read the print and check it out before hand. If we didnt have bad credit none of you would have ordered it anyway. So you got what you asked for a card to help built your credit, no other promises were made. Reading and checking up on things would have saved all these complaints.. You get what was offered.

06 of january 2012 by sheree leger I ordered over 200.00 dollars for christmas plus still owe around 180.00 and I still haven't received anything
I ordered. I cannot find a way to check on my order to even find out if it has been shipped yet! I am truely a patient person, but I am starting to get aggravated with this company. They did have a few nice things, but most of it was cheap toys. Children do not look at how expensive things are, they are just happy receiving them. My children still have yet to receive their gifts and it has been over 3 weeks. Can someone please help me and my children out and let us know where or how to find out when their things will be in? If not I will be in contact with my lawyer, and i would really rather not. I am getting tired of waiting...

The sad part about it is that I tried ordering something from them. But it wouldn't let me. They wanted a regular credit card account to process the order. So you can't even use it to purchase anything from them
