Should I try out jumbo bids/jumbo closeouts?

Published On 20 Aug 2010 By . Under: Closeouts.   

Just to warning to all, stay away from jumbo bids. You have to spend a fortune on bids to get the product and they charge you upfront for 300 bids just to register. Not worth even trying.

No. It’s a scam. I think it’s already been shutdown.

    THIS IS A SCAM!!!!!
    I saw a "News" report that was not a news report but a pretend report put out by whoever this company is, saying how much people were saving. Followed by an ad from them offering 100 free "bids", so I went and signed up. They asked for my credit card, which given I know they charge for bids, was not a surprise, but I did assume I would have a choice about spending —OR NOT. Then they said Congratulations, you have 400 bids!! and cherged me $150.00 WITHOUT EVER SAYING THEY WOULD DO THIS! I called the 800 number – disconnected! I tried the "LIve Chat" — DISABLED. The email BOUNCED! I called my bank and now have to file a fraud paper to get my money back. The bank said they have no identification on the transaction. Telling you, BIG SCAM. Stay awa! They should be shut down!!

    ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!! Beware of the Deceit. Read each and every word of their Terms and Conditions as well as their Privacy Policy, as somewhere in there on the second or third page, it will tell you, when you sign up, BAM, they will hit your charge card with $150.00. Also that tiny print does say, no refunds. Biggest RIPOFF around. Honestly, I don’t know how these people get away with it. They are literally ripping off thousands of people. Oh, don’t forget, these bids you get for the $150.00, yea, they expire in 60 days, it’ll take you 59 days to figure out how the dang thing works. NO, NO, NO…

    DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. IT IS A SHAM. THEY REQUIRE A CC TO PLAY BUT THEY DO NOT MAKE IT CLEAR THAT YOUR BANK IS CHARGED $150 WITHOUT PERMISSION.
    THEY ARE PATHETIC. STAY AWAY FROM THESE HORRIBLE THIEVES. THEY HAVE A PROXY ACCT SO ITS VERY HARD TO FIND THEM – I HAD TO CONTACT GO DADDY TO GET FURTHER INFO AND THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL ONCE I EXPLAINED THE FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY THAT HAS TAKEN PLACE.
    THIS COMPANY STARTED IN JULY, 2010. I HOPE THE ARE OUT OF BUSINESS BY THE END OF THE MONTH.

    Gigantic RIPOFF! I also clicked on a link saying to try the site and get 100 free bids, not only did I get charged the $150.00, I never got the free bids! They say that it is stated clearly on the sign up page that you will be charged for 300 bids…NO WAY IN HELL did it say anything like that!
    They refuse to refund my money, offered me $50.00 to go away.
    Scammers! Am now going to file with the FTC as fraud!

    I agree with the others. It is a total rip-off. I m contacting my credit card company in order to get them involved re the $150 this company stole from me. It looks as though this place is located in CA, but I am not sure. When I phoned, I reached someone who could not help me. I asked for his supervisor. He said he had none!!! That he was the supervisor of the call center. His answers made no sense at all. For sure this a SCAM!!!!
