  Billing issue and being able to contact WritersLife. I originally signed up for several courses for what I understood to be $*****. I was charged much more than *****. I was only able to look at one course. Then I started getting calls that I owed ***** from their AI Assistant on Voicemail. I tried to call back but that number doesnt handle billing. I dont recall signing for reoccurring charges of ***** or what even the course Black Box is about. Im 74 and have glaucoma and it is hard to focus at times. I tried to reach them on the email in the voicemail but says its not legit. I would like your help in contacting them and stopping this charge and a refund for the months I have paid ***** for a course I know nothing about. The company seems very deceptive. I do remember a bunch of courses for ***** that they charged more for and I couldnt find some of the courses.but I was also hacked on ******** and Instagram and could have been here I guess. Not sure. Your help would be appreciated.. thank you. I want them to stop billing and calling me.

  Thank you for contacting us. The customer signed up for a trial offer with the understanding it would roll into a monthly paid membership of $47 until canceled if they failed to cancel before the trial ended. We have canceled this today. They haven't reached out to us regarding their account or we would have been happy to discuss it and cancel it for them at that time.

   

  thank you

  I noticed a repeating automatic deduction charge of $67.73 from my debit account from the past 4 months, March through June 2023. I saw that it was from writerslife.org, and so I went to their website (which I did not recognize) and attempted to log in so I could cancel my subscription. They have no record of my email address or name. So I am paying for a subscription that I don't even have! I called their number multiple times and left messages or got disconnected; I sent an email to their *********************** contact and received a reply that read "unsubscribed and refunded." But no refund came into my account. I went online to research this company and I see from Reddit sites and complaint sites that they are a scam. I would like to get back the $270.92 that they took out of my account and will continue to take out until I can figure out how to resolve this. I am not the first person going through this experience and I would prefer to not have to cancel my debit card.

  I am not sure who the customer spoke with that said they can't find the account by I was able to locate it by her name and her email. If she has information on who she talked with that said and that said they put in a refund please let us know so we can follow up on that information. We don't see a record of any correspondence with the customer through phone logs or support tickets by her name or the email provided here. The ******************* membership is $67.73 per month and the customer must watch a video that explains the membership, the cost, and that they can cancel at any time before they can proceed with the purchase. Our records show the customer signed up for a trial that lasted 2 weeks for $1 with the condition that if they didn't cancel by the time the trial ended they agreed to the monthly charge until they requested to cancel. No one has tried to scam her, that is not how we conduct our business or treat our customers. Memberships are cancel only, not refundable. As a one time courtesy we have issued a refund for payments for March, April, May, and June. If the customer signs up for any further memberships we will not refund them as the terms are fully disclosed before the purchase can be completed. Please allow up to 5 business days for the refunds to reflect with the card issuer. 

   

  thank you

  I was billed three monthly payments of $67/each in June, July, & October of 2022 for an online course (course name: Inner Circle) that I didn't sign up for. I previously purchased other courses with this company but didn't sign up for this course and didn't approve the credit card charges. The other courses are not in dispute. Despite several calls and emails to the Kindle Cash Flow helpline they have not refunded my card and I am requesting assistance from BBB in this matter.
  
  I first called on 10/6/22 and spoke to agent ******** regarding the charges. She said she would refund them and they should show back on my credit card in 10-15 days. I didn't receive any refunds, so I called again on 10/20/22 and spoke with agent ***** in the Philippines who confirmed the refund was processed and would be back on my card in 2-3 days. After that call I received a refund confirmation for one of the three charges of $67. I called back the same day and got agent ***** again and he re-confirmed that all 3 charges had been refunded.
  
  On 10/24/22 I called again and spoke with the same agent named ***** who asked me to follow up with my bank because he processed the refund and there was nothing more he could do. He said the department on this end was closed so he couldn't confirm any further but would check and get back to me on Friday. He asked me if I had charged the transactions back with my credit card company to which I confirmed I hadn't. I called again on 10/28/22, but was not able to reach an agent, but left a voicemail. I also sent three emails to their support email, but they've only confirmed they received the emails. The other two remaining charges have not been refunded as of 10/28/22 and I am please requesting assistance from BBB in this matter. Thank you.
