This place is a total scam. They totally lie about everything especially the ability to freeze your account and direct all billing questions to their accounting department which is the biggest bunch of morons you have ever met, however I have found a way to fight back:

1. Call their accounting department (Affiliated Acceptance Corporation) at 800.233.8483. They are currently in the process of switching accounting company's (supposedly called Aspen Sun) so this might not work but it's worth a shot. Tell the person that you want to non-renew your automatic membership. This is very important because what they don't tell you when you sign-up is that your contract automatically renews thus making it impossible to get out of your contract.

2. File a compliant with the BBB and FTC.  Make sure to file this under the corporate office which is located in Oklahoma City, OK. They are currently rated as D- and should be an F, so do your part in making this come true.

3. I have gotten the names of three people in the corporate office. I have called several times only to be routed to a voicemail that doesn't accept messages because it's full. Here are the people’s names and email addresses. I had to type their email addresses in a different format because this site won't allow me to publish email addresses

Cindy Stuart - cstuart@atbtanning(dot)com

Judson Kinkade - jkinkade@atbtanning (dot) com

Send numerous emails to these people requesting that your auto-renew be cancelled and expressing your frustrating over their deceptive business practices!!!! Make sure to save your email and create a return receipt.

Unfortunately I still have 4 months to deal with these scammers but I’ve taken the proper steps to discontinue doing business with these morons. I encourage everyone to tell your friends and family not to do business with ATB.

Sincerely from an unsatisfied customer, Brian (((ROR redacted)))

At The Beach is listening

AUTHOR: At The Beach - OKC (United States of America)



I am sorry that these customers have not had a good experience with At The Beach.  Obviously that is not what At The Beach wants for our customers.  I strongly encourage anyone who is currently a member of At The Beach who has a complaint or issue with their membership to contact our Customer Care Center at 866-690-9080 or 866-994-5071.  At The Beach is listening to your complaints and our Customer Care Specialists are waiting to work with you to reach a resolution.



Each and every complaint is different and the resolutions will not all be the same, but At The Beach is listening to what our customers are saying.  At The Beach did offer to cancel Mr. Motykowski’s membership on 12/2/2009, an offer he has not yet responded to.



Even if you have contacted Customer Care in the past I encourage you to call again, regardless of what the previous conversation or outcome was as we do want to resolve our customer complaints in a way that is mutually satisfactory.
