PAYCOM.NET are FUCKING CONS

No Im not ranting and bitching because shaving or whatnot, Im bitching as a customer of porn site!

Once in a blue moon I join a paysite and check out the content (cuz im horny and what i have available to me is just not my mood). So I join this one site for a $5 3 day trial....and while you join it asks if you want to get a 3 day trial to another site for only $2... so i click on the checkbox, and click ok.

I come to find out it tacked on 2 additional trial previews without fucking asking me to begin with. So I go to my account at Paycom.net and cancel all my fucking memberships, yet one of the trials I never asked for says 'active preview' and I cannot even fucking cancel... it wont let me. Only until after the free 24 hours preview was over, was I able to cancel something I never fucking asked for, agreed to, and was not even offered with!

Not only that, more then half the transactions I was billed for by Paycom doesnt even show up on their 'database' as the customer srv rep told me. I used my Paypal account to pay for this, and I was charged $5, then $2 x 3 same day, then yesterday a charge of $3.... This is money already gone from my account (not alot I know, not the point) and only $7 of that is reflected in their DB. Fucking crooks cant even keep records! Or purposely they like to have them wrong, eh?


My point to all of YOU is these fucks are tacking on charges without asking. Fucking cons. For you people who use these assholes, I wonder how many chargebacks you get?

Whatever. As a customer, I will be caught dead before you see me purchasing anything using PAYCOM.net. As a webmaster, I have never used them for my sites, and fucking never will.

PAYCOM.net

guess again.

i pay attention, just like i noticed how they fucking charged me for shit i didnt ask for yet in their DB it doesnt show they did?

The first site I went to, before you purchase there is a checkbox that offers the extra trial, so I checked that, and it brought me to another page that offered yet another checkbox for another discounted trial - but I DID NOT check that one, i just completed the order without checking any additional crap. And I pay very close attention when I order online.

Im just pissed for two fucking reasons: They tacked on shit I never asked /signed up for, and they charged me for those yet say they dont fucking have it (reflected in their DB)!

So if thats not a con job then WHAT THE FUCK.

The rep I spoke with credited my original transactions, so I got my $7 back, but I still have another $7 missing from them that they say they don't have.

Triple 6, got the same problem here...
I tried a 3 day trial and on the signup page it says:

Click here to signup for a 3 day No Charge Membership to Mr. Skin - Three Day No Charge Trial Membership. After 3 days, Membership renews automatically at $39.95 every 1 month.

and

Click here to signup for a 5 day No Charge Membership to Slut Movies - No Charge Five Day Trial Subscription. After 5 days, Membership renews automatically at $39.95 every 1 month.

so I checked the boxes and they fucking charge me $2 per site, it's not about the money.

Fuck you guys @ epoch

Y'all understand the difference in a pre-auth and a charge? I'm guessing not and that has something to do with it... they are pretty clean on their disclosure -- in compliance with Visa, just like the other good processors.

Why then does it not reflect in their DB they took out said $? Its not in my Paypal account, it says PAYCOM.net next to the transactions, but they don't have it. What the fuck is that.

From a customer standpoint, this is a la bullshit.

Another satisified customer. x your experience by few 1000 others per day who just accept it but will probably never sign up for a paysite again. Good times ahead.

When I joined, there was NOTTTT two offers (two checkboxes). I CLEARLY remember being only ONE.

If for some reason when I joined it did not correctly list the second offer but was somehow processed as being checked off, I dunno if that could happen.

I was only offered ONE extra trial, and when I had that checked, it brought me to another page that asked me if i wanted another free trial, which I did NOT check off. I remember saying to myself ' one extra one is enuff, let me just continue with what the fuck i came here for'.

Yeah it does matter since at least one of those companies doesn't do ezclick with others.

And you wouldnt have three ezclicks in a chain from three different companies that I am aware of.

So 1+1+1 does not equal 2.

exactly, and you still get charged.

As a reasonably understanding person, you expect not to see a charge. If they wanna tack on $2 as a pre-auth, they should FUCKING SAY SO before you hit that submit button.

I don't know what ezclick is, the question here is why they fucking charge us $2 per site other then the one we choosed to join when it says "No Charge" on the signup page.

Oh boy, you're a genius.

You think that on a free trial there is no pre-authorization? That anyone and everyone gets access?

Let's go thru this real slowly and you take notes ok, since free trials work the same way with every processor I know of, and I'd hate to see you dogging someone else next week.

A free trial is pre-authorized for the amount of the rebill BEFORE you are allowed access. Therefore if you do a free five day trial on a site that rebills at 40 bucks monthly then your card will get pre-authorized for 40 dollars BEFORE you get access to the site on the free trial.

Does that mean you've been CHARGED 40 bucks? NO. It means that the processor has a 'lien' so to speak against 40 dollars of your available credit and a certain number of days in which to settle this charge or it becomes unavailable to the processor.

On the off chance that you've never stayed in a hotel where you put a credit card up for amenities like room service and long distance then you wouldn't realize that hotels do the exact same thing. They PRE-AUTHORIZE a certain amount per day IN CASE you order room service, make long distance calls or wipe out the mini-bar. IF you DONT do any of those things, then they settle your bill for the nightly rate only and a few days later the pre-auths fall off your card and that money is available to you.

No one tells you they are pre-authorizing you, it's common sense on anything that you are getting that you aren't paying for right now since they don't know for sure how much to charge you.

Why? because *I* think your story doesn't add up.

There are three different companies that own the sites you have listed. Therefore you didn't get slapped with pre-auths from these sites by visiting one join page unless some things have changed significantly at one of these companies at least, and very recently. Why do I say that? I know, since I used to run one of them.

Cmon Drew.. when signing up for adult sites, adult webmasters pay attention like a tweaker on a mission.

They know where the cancel links are, they know how the industry works --- which is why they shouldn't touch a membership site with a 10' pole in the first place.

And maybe that second checkbox was hidden & checked somehow? Go back and look at the source.. or check out who the owner of that 3rd site (that you didn't sign up for) was, or post the domain so we can

Hmm I wonder if theres a T-shirt somewhere that sais

Oh boy, you think my story doesnt 'add up'. And no your not a genious either...

WHat the fuck does it matter 3 different companies own those different sites. IM NOT TALKING ABOUT THE WEBSITES, Im talking about their fucking payment processor, PAYCOM.net, and last I checked they are ONE fucking site. Apparently it doesnt add up to you cuz you cant do fucking math - i said, again, ONE fucking site I have this problem with - PAYCOM.net - TAKE FUCKING NOTE.

And pre-auths should be credited. I know how they work, and that money is fucking gone from my account . What kind of accounting does Paycom.net have if they dont keep track of their pre-auths? It was taken out under their name. Regardless, those should be credited back just as fast as the rep refunded my $ for the original transaction - and they were not.

And my arguement isnt so much about the pre-auth's, its the fact they tacked on shit I didnt sign up for.

Let's go thru this real slowly and you take notes ok, since free trials work the same way with every processor I know of, and I'd hate to see you dogging someone else next week.

A free trial is pre-authorized for the amount of the rebill BEFORE you are allowed access. Therefore if you do a free five day trial on a site that rebills at 40 bucks monthly then your card will get pre-authorized for 40 dollars BEFORE you get access to the site on the free trial.

Does that mean you've been CHARGED 40 bucks? NO. It means that the processor has a 'lien' so to speak against 40 dollars of your available credit and a certain number of days in which to settle this charge or it becomes unavailable to the processor.

On the off chance that you've never stayed in a hotel where you put a credit card up for amenities like room service and long distance then you wouldn't realize that hotels do the exact same thing. They PRE-AUTHORIZE a certain amount per day IN CASE you order room service, make long distance calls or wipe out the mini-bar. IF you DONT do any of those things, then they settle your bill for the nightly rate only and a few days later the pre-auths fall off your card and that money is available to you.

No one tells you they are pre-authorizing you, it's common sense on anything that you are getting that you aren't paying for right now since they don't know for sure how much to charge you.
ok so they pre-authorize my card...cool. still not seeing why they charge us that extra $4...

Wake up and smell the coffee. How do you think all the big guys in this industry buy mansions, Ferrari's, and live like kings?

From A to Z in this industry there is trickery at play where at the end of the day the consumer is the last one to take it up the ass.

OK. I?m up now, so where are we? Oh yeah? Processing 101.

Triple6, you got email confirmations on anything that we billed. That?s the way the system works. Plus, and most important to the FTC, Visa, MasterCard, others and me, there is proper, complete and easily understandable disclosure on the Join Form.

If there is a problem with your accounts and you are not satisfied with the way our Customer Service Reps handled the call, please email me at [email protected] and attach your email confirmations. Send your username and password and / or your card number so I can look up your account. When this matter is resolved I hope you will post that too, with as much passion as your posts here.

I am a bit confused however: We don?t take Pay Pal. So was it your Pay Pal MasterCard? If not, then maybe you joined a site or sites with another processor. LMK.

As for pre-auths, KK is correct. That?s the way it works. A pre-auth, which is not closed (settled), is dropped by our system if and when you cancel. So your credit is ?locked up? but no charge has taken place. Kimmy?s example of the hotel is the one we use too. It is in case you allow the trial to convert. When you cancel, it is dropped by our system.

In the future, before you go on a public message board and announce that we are criminals, get some facts, read your email confirmations and the Join Form disclosures. The truth is your ?facts? don?t add up. I think you have ulterior motives. Maybe you have another reason for slandering our company. Some people may take your comments the wrong way and then Paycom / EPOCH is damaged financially and / or our reputation is damaged, then you could get sued ? for LOTS of money.

For the record: Paycom / EPOCH is fully compliant with card association rules and guidelines and we have never had any FTC issues. We employ lawyers to review the disclosure on our Join Forms and every product offer our client?s make, so that we are fully compliant with the FTC. If anyone has any problems whatsoever, please contact me. If I am not available ask for Clay Andrews or Rand Pate. We take compliance and fair billing practices seriously and our reputation proves that is, and has been, true.

Well rebills and addon charges to related services generates more cash in the mainstream world.

You got CreditCard companies selling stuff like Checking Your Credit Report but they pitch it as a one time deal but they mail you that monthly.

Products on TV like the Dean Martin Roasts, Proactive Solutions, all use crazy biling tactics.

How about the old man from Video Professor all he wats is shipping and handeling, you wont beleive what happens with that small fee of 5.95 before you know you are being billed after 30 days etc.

I wont even mention Magazine Subscription bullshit and tons of other things.

The new tactic on TV for the guys selling stuff like "How to buy real estate no money down" and "Trend Trading to win" and "Buying and Selling Notes"

They now tell you on TV for just $9.95 they will mail you the package, now unless you have a 60 inch TV you cannot read that if you don't retur it within 30 days you will be billed 59.95 a few times (or 39.95 depending on the product)

Does it make it right to operate like that, I don't know but don't say its porn and porn causing problems

Another idiot who can't tell the difference between PayPal and Paycom ... or a pre-auth versus an actual charge ...

Let me venture a wild guess and say that you probably joined the site through PAYPAL ... NOT PAYCOM ... which is why PAYCOM wouldn't have a record of it?

Duh ....

Business as usual at GFY ... LMAO!

First off, don't be so paranoid. I have no 'ulterior motives'. My reason for 'slandering' your company is because you guys seemed to have some fucked up practices.

I know what the hell I saw when I joined the site, and I did not see anything offering me the two extra trials that were tacked on to my account. Yes I got confirmation emails, thats how I found out I was getting shit I didnt sign up for.

For your record, I used a Mastercard that is tied to my Paypal account and draws directly from it as a debit account.

Let me explain again my signup process, and please explain to me how these extra sites got there given the # of steps I took to complete the transaction..... and keep in mind when I first saw the extra trial offer for 'slut movies', that was the ONLY offer that was presented to me. I saw only one:

I proceed to join and before completing the transaction, I am offered a trial to slut movies, and only that. I check the box, hit submit, which bring me to a similair page that again offers ONE trial - but this time I decline and do not check the box, I instead hit the submit button and finish the transaction, expecting access to two websites - not four!

And don't get me started on slander. Im not making 'false statements', Im making complaints about some bullshit I ran into at your company... and Im not the only one in this thread who has had such problem - don't think for a moment I have nothing better to do then just sit here and whip up flaming bullshit about your company with no good reason.

Chris, believe me, I am doing this for no other reason except that I thought your subscription process is messed up. I would just assume with the pre-auths though that they are immediately credited to my account - but since you said it was never taken out, why is it still being held? Why does THAT take so long compared to a refund? I dont get it.

--- and I keep saying I only saw one offer, on both the first page and the second page. So let me ask you...How long have you guys been offering two at a time, from what I see on the pages now? And who here can verify this?

its true what kimmykim said bout the pre-auth

Here is a problem I have with billers and I think its total fraud:

It was March 4th 2003 at approx. 4:32AM

I was surfing the web (I already pay $40 a month for DSL) and I saw a really hot adult site.

I was extremly horny (not my fault its nature plus websites should not make people so horny) so I decided to join.

Now as im going to the join page my cock is already getting real hard and im very excited.

I enter my credit card information and pay the 29.95.

I then login to the members area and download some hot videos and before you know my cock is fuckin hard and I beat off and cum all over the place.

Now this is a total scam for a few reasons:

1) I already pay $40 for DSL, why should I have to pay for anything else on the web

2) I could of purchased 5 4 Hour XXX Videos at a local video store for $29.95

3) I can get free porn at TheHun and some sites offer $1 porn access.

4) I was READING very careful everything of the page (even as im using one hand to type and for the mouse, and even as my cock is poking me in one eye) I never saw 29.95 I think it said $2.95 60 day trial

I think this is a big fraud and no wonder Visa is cracking down.

cute.

Perhaps shit like that happens to you, fictional or not, but I know what I saw. I'm not disputing prices displayed on a website.

ANd I happen to be the kind of surfer who is very anal about leaving checkboxes checked by default. Im not some n00b fucker who never checks off the 'yes! spam me with your shit since im joining your site' option that is found on nearly every website I visit. I pay close attention to those damn checkboxes.

If Paparazzi can corroborate how many offers he was given then I have some validity to my claim if he was presented with one and only one offer during his sign up process (if he can remember). But if in fact EPOCH has been doing the offers two at a time since before a few days ago (or have never offered just one, OR if they do not do BOTH) then I will own up and feel stupid for not seeing something that wasnt there, and will apologize accordingly. But I swear to fucking thyself I saw one fucking checkbox = one offer = all I fucking checked /
