Angry Vista print Scam

Hi all,
If any of you have ever ordered stuff from Vista print please check your bank and credit card statements. Just going through mine to discover a company called VP rewards have been taking £9.95 a month from me. Had no idea who they were so have googled it to find lots of people had the same happen to them after buying stuff from Vista print. They try to say that you have signed up to the scheme and are not too good at refunding the money they have already taken from you, one man has had to cancel his credit card as that was the only way to stop them taking more money. I will be on the phone first thing tomorrow to try and get a refund just wanted to warn the rest of you.

Keep chipping away for a refund, I had to write to them and to the bank to stop all payments to this company, I did eventualy get refund and will not use
them again.

Never had any problems with vistaprint - use them for all of my business stationery & they have some fantastic deals, just got 1500 business cards with my own logo and branding on for about £8 plus postage, as well as printed xmas cards to send to corporate clients. The VP rewards was something you were offered to click through to when you had ordered in my experience, i had a look but it wasn't for me so i didn't sign up. its kind of a 'money off club' you pay an amount a month and you can get special offers from other companies, but i've never got any money to spend in the first place!!!

They've never taken more money from me than they should have done & i've been using them for over 2 years now????

Thanks for that Debs
I have been looking at getting more cards printed up, and had been recommended vista print.
Will take note of what you have said, fore-warned/ fore-armed
