swipebids.com Circle Media Bids limited RIP OFF SCAM! RIP OFF SCAM $159.00. SWIPEBID.COM IS A HUGE RIP-OFF SCAM. BEWARE! Internet
I was on the internet looking at auction sites and remembered seeing a particular one on a commercial on television, swipebid.com. I looked it up and decided to check farther into what they had to offer for products. Swipebid.com requires you to register with the company prior to being able to see what products they have to offer, so I registered my information as well as my credit/debit card information, (which was required to proceed), this information was for bidding purposes only. When I hit enter, then and only then did it show that my account had been charged $159.00 joining fee.
There wasn't anything that indicated my account would be charged any amount of monies unless I bid on an item and won. I immedietly called the number listed on the site to have the money refunded back to my account, I was not aware that there would be a joining fee of $159.00 and I was not looking to bid on anything. I was just checking different sites to see what they had to offer. Swipebid.com has refused to refund any of the monies they have stolen from my account.
I am researching this so called internet company and have found hundreds of complaints reguarding this website.
