Description

I saw an ad on Instagram advertising a free family pack of pasta in exchange for filling out a survey. It asked for my credit card number to cover shipping. It auto charged my credit card $85 twice for a subscription I never received or signed up for. Plus the "shipping" fee. I contacted the company and they won't refund my money because it's past the 14 day cancellation fee.
