deejaymitch 0 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I've recently ordered from VistaPrint. Since then I've got a lot of junk e-mails from them but no extra charges. I'll be watching my account very closely though. I'm a DJ based in Northern Ireland with nearly 10 years' experience offering a range of services. Including club residencies, karaoke, pub quizzes, specialised wedding service, Master of Ceremonies, Compere, Night at the Races and much more. Link to post Share on other sites

It's happened to us a few times and has started again. Call the number on the statement and it's pre-recorded, visit the web site and need a password! Last time we had to cancel our debit card to stop it. Do you have an easier way? <a href="http://www.djassociates.org"><img src="http://www.djassociates.org/anims/compres_banner.gif" alt="Join the DJ Associates Disc Jockey Association" border="0" width="468" height="60"></a> Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Smith 0 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I believe this happens when you place an order and a pop-up then appears with an offer. If you accept the offer you will get billed for it (monthly I think). From recollection the pop-up doesn't tell the full story at the start and you need to read the terms & conditions further down (or in another link). Link to post Share on other sites

I got stung last year and still use vistaprint simply because their very good. As you place your order you have to "opt out" to becoming part of their membership sceme. If you catch it quick enough they refund the money, which they did to us. Link to post Share on other sites

Secret Disco 0 Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 How?????? We got the phone No. off the website explaining we were regular customers and didn't understand the membership scheme when ordering.......and if they didnt refund us we would cancel our order which was LARGE. She then explained that she couldnt put our funds back onto our credit card????? but would send a cheque , which they did for the amount lost three days after our conversation. You really have to stand your ground with these people and unfortunately its putting a lot of people off. Its a stupid little box that, if i can remember rightly, you have to Un-tick to opt out when placing your order ......Sillly !!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
