I got a call from Discover and said I had a late payment. I was really surprised as I haven't used this discover card for over 2 years.
Of course, I called Discover immediately and it turned out that the charges was from the monthly service fee of Discover's Wallet Protection since Feb this year. However, I am pretty sure I never enrolled in such service. I called their Wallet Protection department. They told me that I had enrolled since 2002 and they already charged me over $50 for 3-year service. The monthly fee since Feb was the charge after the 3-year period. I am like what the heck! I didn't even notice that I was charged for 3 years.
So I asked them to refund me at least the charges since Feb but they refused. They reasoned that I already paid the $50 for the 3-year service, so they were sure that I was enrolled in the program. Then I recall I probably received some advertisement letter from Discover saying that if I didn't response, they will assume me joining their Wallet Protection service. I thought it's just advertisement so I didn't response.
I am really angry now as I am pretty sure that I never signed any document / application form to join the program. Is there anyway that I can fight my money back?????? I feel it's really non-sense that they send you some advertisement letters. If you don't response to the ad, they will assume you agree to join and start charging you for the service.
Please help!!!!!! Is there any agency or association that I can report Discover's practice???
