While trying to download instructions on my new oven, a banner for Readverse came up, I found myself subscribed to this company inadvertently, I don’t know how. £29.90 taken from my bank … phoned bank tried to cancel, had to cancel bank card get a new one… still no refund from last month and now they have taken another £29.90 even though I have a new card… dealing with fraud team at bank now…I recently lost my husband and I could really do without all this stress… what a scam way of getting a customer base, not even sure of what you are selling 😡😡😡

This is a scam. Clicked on banner accidentally on an unrelated website only to find myself subscribed to “free trial”(one day!) to something I didn’t have any interest in nor requested. Then tried to unsubscribe by clicking link that didn’t work! A day later £29.90 deducted from my bank. Then was able to unsubscribe. Now taking action through bank to secure my account and get money refunded. I am pleased to confirm that after being challenged on their process they have agreed to refund the £29.90

With Halloween approaching I wanted to buy a personalised Halloween meme using Apple Pay. The next thing I know is I've subscribed to an educational company called Readverse and they will charge me £29.90 per month starting the next day. I emailed the company immediately and got an automated response saying someone would be in touch within 24 hours (by which time of course it would have been too late to prevent the payment being taken). At this point I cancelled my credit card. I believe this company is a scam an I have reported them to the NSCC. Whether they can or will take any action I don't know as it's based overseas. Plese have nothing to do with them.

How do you actually stop them from taking on my 4th month now don’t even know what it is they are meant to do

They have scammed the wrong person this time!!! The payment for £29.90 has been pending since Tuesday 27th but my balance is still £29.90 less. Lloyds Bank says they can't do anything until the pending payment has cleared, either the payment will fail or the scammers will give up, but they cancelled the card that was used to make this transaction and tightened security.

Absolute scam, AVOID!!!

Another tale of woe about these scammers. My son clicked a "pay EUR1 to access site" link, and the same day EUR29.90 was taken from his account. Compounded by the fact that a second payment for the same amount was taken a month later because, although the card had been cancelled and a new one issued, apparently the ApplePay link still worked. I'm currently trying to resolve this with the card issuer, Hyperjar.

A complete con. I inadvertently clicked a £0.01 one-day trial and was automatically charged £29.90 the next day for a ‘subscription’ I had absolutely no knowledge of or intention of taking out. No luck so far in getting a refund, but will continue to push.
