:mad: We have just received a letter from this company, stating that my wife signed an agreement for whatever services they are selling.
She DEFINITELY did not sign this, they must have somehow got this signature from FREEMANS.
The so called agreement is not dated, but states if she does not cancel within 30 days, she has to pay.
This is obviously rubbish, 30 days from when.
Also she was supposed to get 2 free cinema tickets and a welcome pack, neither of which arrived, not that we wanted them anyway.
Freemans have to be involved in this, the signature could only have come from them.
We are in touch with both companies, and also Trading Standards!!.

Sorry guys but think some of you are just thick. I joined the Barclaycard scheme and cancelled over the phone within a month. No problem at all and still enjoying the vouchers. The problem is either you are unable to read to do not read the term and conditions.0

Most of these posters have said they DID NOT sign anything and they think they were scammed. Why are some people on here so quick to treat others as if they are fools? If you do not believe what they have written why bother to read the posts at all?0 -
Thanks vet8.
I will say it again:
I did not sign, I did not get the cinema tickets, I did not get a welcome pack.
It's gathering a pace here:

I have just open my barclaycard statement and found a transaction for £38.50 from a company called leisuretime ltd horsham, having had no dealings with them I contacted customer services who are sending me out a fraudulent claim form
I have since read this forum and can clearly state I have never applied for any offers sent to me,I never do,they go straight into the bin,I dont accept telephone offers either.
So will be interesting to see what they come up with,will keep you all informed
