  Hi
  Just received a telephone call today from The Money Club, never heard of them. Lady was very talkative and explained the savings I could make, gave my email address and was quoted that the joining fee for a 4 wek trial perid was only £1.00.
  
  Alarm bells started to ring when she asked for my bank sort code and when I stated that I did not give these details out over the phone she said it was to set up a direct debit. When I again stated that I would not give out any bank details she was off the phone like a shot!!!!

  Leave it well alone, they took money from my bank. I was told to use the introductory period and see how much i could save. Have a look at intro pack they said ( a few bits of paper /adverts and a booklet) .If i did not use the introductory period, which cost only £1,,,,,there was no requirement to go a head. Rubbish,,,, 2 months later £98.00 out of my bank and i had done nothing but look at the intro-pack and think it not for me. I wrote to them bog standard crap in the reply telling me of their costs and that i could not have my money back........be warned.........

  I am an employee of The Money Club and have been for the past four years. IT IS NOT A SCAM. We currently have 3 massive branches and a head office which is registered with company house. I dont quite understand why your so protective of your bank details when it is only a sort code and account number needed. Banks itself have printed theses on cheques, statements, EVERYWHERE! If someone runs off with your handbag with your cheque book in it, they cant do anything with these details anyway. We dont ever ask for long card numbers, valid, expiry, security digits. Previously worked in a bank, and these details are dangerous to give. So before ringing your fraud lines and worrying about a sort code and account number, check the website and check companies house website, youd see that we are registered.

  If the money was taken by direct debit then you can easily have this reversed by your bank using the direct debit guarantee. You didn't give permission for this debit, as you were informed by the company that no further money would be taken if you didn't make use of their services.

  They telephoned me this morning offering me the week trial for just £1, alarms bells started ringing when they wanted bank details made an excuse that has got details to hand! They have not stopped ringing me since this phone call to get me bank info, god knows how they have got both my mobile & home numbers. Luckily have caller id so not answering the phone to them!

  My elderly friend had a call this week, its blatantly obvious that she is elderly, the guy on the phone was persistant, she wasn't really aware of what he was talking about, he asked for her bank details, unfortunately she was a lil confused with the whole conversation and gave them to him, after recieving the information in the post a few days later we realised it was something that was totally unsuitable for a person of her age and by the sounds of the posts on this site also for many of them too, we immediately cancelled the direct debit from the bank and will hopefully hear no more, scandelous salesmen/women (ok trying to make a living) but at the peril of the elderly, not good.
