Lillian Vernon LV Reward Unauthorized Recurring Charge to Credit Card, 9 months Virginia Beach, Virginia

I don't understand how you could have missed a recurring charge month after month if you review your credit card statement monthly.

If you had reviewed your April billing statement the month you recieved it, you would not have had this issue. From your post it sounds like you just now reviewed your credit card statements. If so, then it is your fault for not managing your credit card accounts.

IMO, it is not right that these companies charge for monthly reward type programs unless you specifically signed up for them (with full knowledge). HOWEVER, in this instance it is equally your fault because you are just now contesting a charge that has shown up every month for thepast nine months.

I hope you will get some of your money back, but I doubt it. If you look up the terms and conditions for Lillian Vernon rewards program it will detail the contact information for you to cancel the service.

To stop this in the future, read all of your statementseach and every month immediately upon receiptand check each charge to make sure it is yours and that you authorized it. If you do this, you can catch extraneous charges and put a stop to them immediately.
