Agreement was to try product for 30 days with the option to cancel before the 30 days expired. Company charged $16.95 7 days before my end date and then 1 week later a sister company entitled Encore Marketing took an additional $16, 95 out of my bank account! Neither transaction was authorized. I found out about these EasySaver folks via the Loral Langemeier program or should I say yet another scam!

Received their goods, not pleased with results. Called to cancel cards and goods. All I get is a recording to go to web site and can't find anything on here to help me cancel this crap either. Nothing like getting the run a round. Should have know better when I order the stuff never got to talk to a live person on the phone. All this automated crap now a days sucks, is there any real people out there?

They got me too. I did find out a good # to cancel them after a few hours of ripping peoples heads off over the phone. 1-866-828-4677. It happened
to me trying to do something nice, buying my wife flowers at proflowers.com. I will never do business with them again. I hope this helps someone. Also do not let them push you around, what they are doing is illegal. Good luck [email protected]

When I found out about this program I was in disbelief. they say u will receive a 1000 dollar grocery voucher, 2 $25 Walmart gift cards, $25 gas card and a $50 diner card 2 whatever restaurant I choose if I take part in a free trial 30 day offer and just pay for the shipping and handling and for 5 bucks more I will receive my $1000 grocery voucher, 2 $25 Walmart gift card, $25 dollar gas card and my $50 diner card within 3-5 business day. (Sounds good to a single mom with 4 kids, one car, and no job. My only source of income is disability.) I continuously ask the representative wheres the gimmick whats the catch I even asked here did our President Obama have something 2 do with and she laughs n say no they are totally for consumers services. So I give her my debit card number and she *** $17 out of my account that.Well today I receive in the mail 2 pieces of cardboard with mail in coupons on them no vouchers for the groceries just a box to check and a address to send it to and it will take 2-3 weeks before you receive your membership and then you must redeem your coupons within 45 days of paid membership.(There's the gimmick). I call the 800 number provided 2 me and they cant explain nothing to me about my funds they took out my account for the vouchers that I was suppose to receive in the mail in 3-5 days it was a third party that billed me sorry for the misunderstanding its nothing we can do but cancel your membership but I will be out of my $17 and I wont receive anything. They cant even give me the number to corporate. Have I been scammed or what.
