Fast Blog Income is a scam!!! I do not think enough people will hear about this before they get nailed with the charges. It is bad enough that they say that you are getting a starter package by mail for 1.97 and then hit you with a monthly 74.97 charge, but then they use another company name to hit you with another 19.97 charge per month after they trick you into checking the box. Of course it doesn't matter if you check the box or not, you will get charged the 19.97 and then how can you prove otherwise? In addition to the 74.97 charges, you never even get the package by mail that you pay for. Your 74.97 payment is for a month of service according to the crooks that work with this company, but it you call them the day you are charged (which is in advance of the month) you may tell them you cancel the account but they refuse to refund the money even though you have not used the month yet. First charge was on 11/13, supposed to be for a month. Second charge was on 12/11, which is not a full month, and then I get through to somebody to request a refund, and of course not only has the month not begun yet, but they refuse any refunds. Crooks, crooks, crooks, crooks! I called them and told them that this is the real test for them. They know they are crooks. They know they are running a scam. They know they are cheating people out of there money. I told them for once to do the right thing and refund the money, and of course that is not ever going to happen.
I did notice that this company seems to take time to respond to all of these claims online. Here is another challenge to you, whatever your company name is. I know you are international so you really don't give a crap about our laws. i saw the international transaction fees on my card statement. I challenge you to supply the people here that you have ripped off with your actual mailing address and location. Where are you? You are hiding behind a proxy register of your domain name. You are hiding from the people you supposedly offer a service to. Tell the people here where you are. Be a man for once. The people of this company are nothing more than cowards if they cannot do this.
<EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!HERE IS WHAT RIP-OFF REPORT SUGGESTS YOU DO:
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
DO NOT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
CHARGES TO YOUR CREDIT CARD
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!

Fast Blog Income
AUTHOR: Twinz2 - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, January 13, 2010
My brother-in-law has been out of work 18 months. My sister, out of work for 5 months. When she saw a low cost opportunity to make money at home, she jumped on it. I have no idea whatsoever why this employee from this RIPOFF company would come to their assistance. You're a liar and your company preys on people desperately trying to keep their families afloat. When she failed to receive ANYTHING from this company she was curious. When a $74.97 appeared on her banking statement (Which left her with $3.00 in her account) she was livid to find out it was this ripoff company. Dear Fast Blog Income: How can you look at your minor child and tell them there won't be any dinner. How do you tell your minor child that there's no money for gas to be put in your car so she either walks the 15 miles to school or must miss? How do you tell your minor child that there is no money to get lunch at school? You are all cockroaches. You are all liars. You scam innocent people and rob them of money so precious, yes ONLY $74.97, but when you only have $80.00 to keep food on your table, food for your children but not enough for you, you have some difficult choices to make. Your company violates trust and everything that is decent about people who want to work hard. I will do everything in my power, Tweeting, MySpacing, Facebooking and word of mouth to let every person who hears my voice not to let their loved one cry themselves into a panic over a fraudulent charge from a company that has no soul then outsources it's customer services to India. Shame on you and may God bring your company to financial ruin.
