unauthorized joke texting service
I aksed for a complimentary ringtone that I never recieved but in the process have received daily jokes texted to me and charges on my cell phone bill. When I attemted to stop the service the return text indicated that they "did not recognize the command". I would like the charges credited back to my cell account

Unauthorized billing!
I was not aware there were going to be charges. I thought the ringtones were free like the advertisement said. I was not even able to read any terms and conditions, it only told me to click on the box to accept the terms and conditions. I would have never agreed to anything if I knew I would be charged!
Beware!

Unauthorized billing!
I was supposed to get complimentary ringtones. Instead all I got was charged for some stupid phone jokes that I didn't want in the first place. the charges are$5.99 a week or $23.96 a month. For stupid jokes, I don't think so. I am complaining to my celluar company about the charges.
Beware!

Fraudulent enrollment in subscription service
Ringtonetimes.com is a fraud - be careful!
On September 13, I followed the instructions to receive a free ringtone from ringtonetimes.com. It was not clear that I would be enrolled in a monthly subscription service.
I then started receiving a new text message every five minutes from 717-69, including:
- "Sorry, ur handset does not support downloadable contents. U will rcv combo club @$19.99 monthly"
- "What happens when frogs park illegally? They get toad."
- "UR subscribed 2 combo club. PIN:0684 for ringtonetimes.com. 31credits billed. $19.99 monthly. 4help1877-225-1198. cxl stop DH"
Following the instructions on the site, I sent a "Stop" text message to 717-69, to which I received the following reply:
- "Sorry, u r not a subscriber to any of Ringtone Times's services."
So that I would stop receiving unsolicited text messages, I blocked ringtonetimes.com using the Verizon Wireless text message site.
I just looked at my latest Verizon Wireless bill, and I have been charged $19.95. I called Verizon, and they seemed unable to do anything about the charge. I also sent Verizon an email, detailing the entire incident, telling them that ringtonetimes.com is a fraud, and that Verizon needs to have a higher barrier against third parties' charges.

Scam and cheating!
They advertise free and then tell you later that there is a monthly charge. If you send "Stop" they ignore it and bill you anyway. It is time for a class action, why is Verizon and other companies paying them the fee. They must know where to send the $ to. Don't waste your time calling, they won't answer the phone!

Do not use this company - they are scams!
On September 11 I was surfing the internet for free ringtones for my phone. I went to ringtones.com to see what they could offer. After I sent my cell number I received a Text that said they would charge my cell account $19.99 for subscription. I promptly called them back to tell the that I hadn't wanted to subscribe and that I just wanted to see what they had to offer. They said that they could do nothing for me and that the charge would still appear on my phone bill but that they would be happy to cancel my account. DO NOT use this company as they are only out for your money. They did nothing to help me and I will certainly tell everybody I know that I felt that I was scammed.
