Vista Print Scam

Be very careful about purchasing business stationery etc from Vistaprint. Google Vistaprint scam and you'll see what I mean.

Like thousands of others, when I bought inexpensive business cards from Vistaprint, somehow and without my knowledge, they passed on my card details to a company called Clubprem.com

I started to get monthly charges to my card of £9.95, and because it was a fairly small amount and I'd done a few ebay transactions didn't pick up on this for 7 months. Careless of me - certainly, but that's what they rely on.

Clubprem.com purports to be a discount club. The charge was made without authorisation by a company I'd never heard of and who's services I had no wish for. My card provider was pretty unhelpful too.

Clubprem.com are extremely good at changing contact numbers and extremely difficult to get hold of. I eventually managed to speak to someone and was able to cancel future payments. I have been promised a refund, but so far am still waiting for it.

    I have used Vista Print before. It's worrying to read your post. I can't believe they would do something like that.

    I have been using Vistaprint for 5 years and have never had this problem or any other problem with them.

    You can verify my post by googling "Vistaprint Scam". Mine is not an isolated experience.

    We did get money back

    We did get the money back though once we'd spotted the 9 months worth of charges! I assumed my husband had been ordering postcards for his business! Turns out he hadn't been ordering anything on a monthly basis!

    I've bought a few things from Vistaprint in the past without problems. Quality is pretty poor but you get what you pay for!
