This business feels really predatory. I signed up through a popup on the local theaters site that said they'd give me 15 bucks cash back on 4/18 and then there was a mysterious charge for **** to my account. Then today another mysterious attempt to charge for ***** that luckily didn't go through at which point I decided to cancel. And when I tried to do that they basically tried to strong arm me into keeping the subscription by saying my pending cashback would be canceled which is kinda messed up when they were making it appear like I had already been approved for the cashback. I'm not paying you guys 22 bucks for 15 bucks cash back. That's literally insaneBusiness Response

SmartyPlus has been billing my Discover Card for the past several months for the amount of $19.00. I would suppose this is supposed to be a subscription of some sort, however I have not subscribed to them for anything. Could you please get them to stop billing me for whatever this is? I would appreciate this very much.Thank you,********************* email: *********************** Phone: ************Business Response

Today is April 24th. I'm notifying the BBB about a"Smartyplus" online service who attempted to defraud me by debiting one of my bank accounts. Luckily I keep my debit cards locked when not in use. I will go back through and see if they've tried this before. Will let you know. Thank youBusiness Response
