      This is a complete scam company and their days are numbered. They pretended to be from ***** and claimed I only had a few days left to activate my warranty. I stupidly gave them my credit card to pay the $100 dollar activation fee. Then I got a bill in the mail attempting to automatically charge me over 200 a month. The representative I spoke to on the phone never mentioned anything about monthly payments. Please keep reporting this scam and put these people out of business and thrown in jail. I am considering hiring a lawyer even though I managed to catch their fraud in time. I would rather spend thousands of dollars to take them down out of principal then let these scammers take another cent from someone else.

      If 0 stars were possible, that is what I would give. Absolutely a scam company. Do not do business with them. I had no choice and no opportunity to check before being suckered into their services They handle payments for an extended warrantee on our van. Remit address changed with no notice. Payments were delayed / misplaced as a result. Initially setup autopay through my 1 bank. New address not recognized by either of my banks. When I made a payment online, they claim it was not received. There is a check-box you must UNCHECK when making an online payment to prevent them from saving account information and withdrawing automatically every month. I will be following up with the issuer of the warrantee.

      This company is a scam and should be absolutely prosecuted for their scams. They told me I had an account which I do not at all and expect me to pay an outrageous fee. Definitely have reported it and will continue to do so because this is a joke.

      I just took over my 71 year old bills this month. I noticed she has a withdrawal from her checking account for ****** for a company called Paylink home I knew immediately she had been scammed after doing my research on this company. My aunt has never owned a home she can't drive so she has never owned a car. I will reporting them to the BBB and her bank. I tried to call the bogus number and of course no answer. These companies should be charged with criminal charges for this. I see the many reviews for similar incidents. I will also be contacting the Attorney General about this matter. I will not stop until she gets all her fixed income money refunded!

      Why I did not read these reviews before signing up with scam company called PayLinkDirect. They scammed me the same way expressed on this platform. A con salesman called and eventually I agreed to sign up and monthly payment was done over a year now. It got to a point I needed the warranty to cover my expenses the warranty supposed to cover but could not get any of their department to help me. PaylinkDirect is a total scam company without any doubt so everyone should refrain from them.
