Hi,

same here. Just seen #29 taken out of my account but have no idea how? My only guess is the razor for 50p which Martin suggested in one of his recent emails...

I will try to contact him to check he is aware & in the meantime I will report to my bank.

You have no idea how?

Well you gave them either your card details or you account details, that's how.

Can you please confirn, by providing a link would be best, that you saw this 50p razor offer in Martin Lewis's email?

Have you yet done anything to avoid losing £29 next month?

Ideally your first contact should be with the company to cancel and so they stop attempting to take money from your account. The contact details are on the first page.

Please state the number you have used that doesn't work.
Then no-one will suggest a number you have already tried.

I have just fallen into their trap but went to Barclays who gave me a number to ring from their branch they have sent all about prizes an e-mail so if they take anymore money they can get it back

Hi there,

Last week, I mistakingly gave my bank details away to a website called all about prizes doman allaboutprizes.com. It claimed in an email that if I signed up, for 50p I got a free razor. Being eager and given the price of razors these days, I gave them my details. I knew that this was a recurring service and they would take subscription money from my account, unless I cancelled it.

So I realize it's a scam straight away after a few Google searches and I call up the bank to ask them to cancel my card (I didn't give out my account number or sort code).

The card was cancelled, but to make sure I wanted to cancel my account with the company, yet on their site it won't let me log in. Deceiving !!!!s!

Today I checked my bank and see they have taken a payment out for 50p the original one. I thought because my card got cancelled they wouldn't be able to do this and I am now worried they will take more payments out. I called my bank but they were useless....

i am in the exact same predicament.. they have taken £29.00 TWICE as well as their 50p and barclays were useless and couldnt help after nearly 45 mins on the phone... !

You could possibly just read the thread you just posted in. Nobody has to send you anything in on the page before this one..

I have just tried phoning All About Prizes (AAP's) and received a message to say,"this number is not accepting calls at present." I've tried every 15 minutes and received the same message. I have been onto my bank and they've put a monitor on my account and said if AAP's try making any further withdrawals from my account they will get it refunded. I personally think we should, as an extremely disgruntled group club together and take legal action. A friend of mine is a litigation expert and I'm sure he'd be very willing to help. Also I think we should go to the National Press to make others aware of this company's deceitful business.
