I had my bank put a resriction hold on my ATM card due to several charges from this company. The amounts were not too much ( .03 cents 3 times, 1.00 another time and .95) but they were done all in the same day.
This has been a headache for me. Stay away from this website or you will have the same headache or worse!!!!!

Anyone else affected, begin a Small Claims Case, Bold LLC will require traveling a Lawyer (as an incorporated company, most states require Attorney representation) to your area.

I spent $174.95 gathering this info. If it applies, please use it. HQ Phone #: here (If you get partial refund, call here to escalate/complain further) Best practices with ANY large company is to document EVERYTHING. I have a phone recorder app for proof (not for Court use in most states, but in arbitration can be proof).
Always get Agent ID, Name, Date/Time, Discussion, etc. These companies purposely "Lose" the info - so you call, cancel, they pretend but DONT cancel; months later they've thieved hundreds of $ from you. You call and say "I canceled." They say "It's still active" in a practiced voice sounding like you're addled, delusional, aggressive, and contemptuous. Most folks immediately lose it so they win with the "Sir/Maam, cursing/anger/unintelligible is unacceptable/not tolerated, I'm ending this call." BAM.
They've stolen your money, and you STILL have an Active Account. (Read below to see Legal issues being sorted by the US Govt because these practices are REAL, PURPOSEFUL DECEPTION. EG ROSCA act 2018) To Get True Refund/Cancellation: First call here. Be Polite (if you're angry/threatening/etc, they can hang up) Say you canceled and when (if it's true, I'm not advocating lying) Their response: "Bla bla $12.95 plan costs less bla bla" Translation: I'm ignoring that you said you cancelled which obviously means we need to refund you, but since I'm an anonymous rep of a 500+ person company, located in a TERRITORY (Puerto Rico, different laws, able to get away with more deceptive BS), than I actually don't care because stealing from you pays my bills so why would I give a *** to give your money back?
PS My cat Sookie says thanks for the treats! You have to prepare to say everything 3x or more because they'll ignore anything you say regarding cancel/refund etc. Say you cancelled, the date, state the disputed charges, dates, amounts, etc. TALK OVER THEM or you'll NEVER get anywhere.
Their response: "OH, you THOUGHT you cancelled, you must be confused that you only cancelled the emails!" translation: YOU are an idiot, this is a canned response to misdirect it to your fault so we can get away with theft! OR "Did you get/use the cancel confirmation?" State that "It's illegal and deceptive practice to require double-jeaopardy 2-step cancellation. It's a ROSCA violation, I'm calling my Congressman over it." Sweetly ask for their name, agent ID, then say you'll speak to the supervisor now. (Don't ASK, as its your legal right for a tier level representation.
Asking just elongates their BS) Persist till you get a Supervisor. Restate that you signed, cancelled, certain you cancelled, don't need 2 Step cancellation, restate each charge, amount, and date, and total you need refunded. Continue until they cancel 3 immediately and promise for at least 2 more via their "accounting dept". Once they are refunded, CALL BACK.
Ask for supervisor immediately. Get name & Agent ID. Describe they've refunded charges, then request refund for remaining. They'll say no.
Argue the above, and ROSCA violations, DETOUR violations. Threaten to sue in small claims (small claims requires an individual NO lawyer, requires a business Lawyer - so they'll have to pay for a lawyer while you dont in most states. The lawyer will have to come to your state, costing for flights and room/board, billable hours. Then threaten to subpoena each agent you spoke to ($50/subpoena in NC).
Tell them you'll sue for max damages ($25000 in NC). So tell them basically, by not refunding your remaining charges of $100bucks or so, they'll spend about $50,000 in court on you. FOR ME, ALL OF THE ABOVE, multiple calls, dealing with their arrogance, speaking over me, pretending not to hear, requiring me to nail down the rep into understanding I was speaking of the final charges (not the prior refunded) needing refunded, they finally escalated the first 3 months charges into their "Accounting Dept/Corporate" to be seen for refund. THEY'RE A TECH MAFIA.
GUARANTEED. Maintain a level of friendliness, dignity, while being forceful and direct and not being overrun by their practiced misdirection. Next, see below to hit their bottom line where they've hit yours - speak out to warn others. Call/email their Executives.
Raise heck until they do right by you. Best of Luck. I've developed the backend (haha) of many online companies, and seen toxic company setups just like this in the form of dexknows, citygrid, yelp, and many more - they use this formula to deceive and steal. Most courts are still inept when it comes to understanding anything technology, so it's become a nearly common practice.
Because consumers need to be DILIGENT NOTETAKERS of EVERY INTERACTION with these types of companies. It's not an accident, the maze of misdirection, deception is ON PURPOSE to take your money. That's why they're becoming illegal practices, but these companies will continue to act this way, refine their deception, etc.
