Family Protection Association Survival Life FPAhelp.org Unexpected auto-bill credit card charges Las Vegas Nevada

Shame on these people!  They claim to support "family values" but in my opinion, the solicitation is sneaky.

It begins with a solicitation that offers something for "free."  All you have to do is pay some "small amount for the shipping."  What you don't realize is that buried deep down in the verbiage is an agreement to be auto-billed $19 a month FOREVER.

An organization that truly espouses "family values" would have that information PROMINENTLY DISPLAYED, perhaps multiple times, and in the LARGEST FONT SIZE in the document.

I don't know how an organization expects to thrive if it operates based on sneaky tactics and hidden "gotchas."

In my case I happened to notice a bunch of $19 charges that I was not expecting.  There were two "monthly charges" in the same month!  I guess that I am fortunate to have caught this after only $86 of charges.

By the way, I tried to cancel this online but their website responded that my email address was invalid.  Strange, because the phone representative asked me to verify the exact same address to which the cancellation email was sent.  Of course I had to endure attempts to keep the account active such as "how about we suspend charges for a bit while you evaluate the benefits" and other pitches from someone who sounded like an off-shore boiler-room operator.

Caveat emptor!
