dave0000 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 So this is the third time I've had someone get my card info and make a charge on it. The bank sends me a new card but it's getting to be a real PITA. I'm trying to narrow down the cause and was wondering if any other RLC subscriber's have had similar problems? In other words I'm questioning segpay's trustworthiness. Also I was thinking of getting a prepaid card to maybe prevent this. Anyone know of a good one to get? tia for any input :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iloner Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Hi, Segpay have always cancelled when I have asked with no fuss and my card has never been compromised. They are huge in this business so should be trustworthy. I never had any luck with a prepayment card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave0000 Posted July 3, 2018 Author Share Posted July 3, 2018 Thanks for info iloner. I'm still running XP so my PC maybe compromised although I'm running an anti virus. Just wondering if anyone else has the same problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delta10 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 AFAIK Comodo Internet Security will still run on XP, at least version 8 if not the current 10 but using the same constantly updated definition files. The HIPS feature will notify anything trying to install. Sandbox helps too although it can end up blocking legitimate installations and updates. What browser do you use? Firefox for XP is now well out of date but maybe still the best option. Opera is another possibility. Sadly it really is time for a PC online to be at least Windows 7 or move to Linux.

dave0000 Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 Yea just using the windows firewall and Firefox will stop support for XP in August. I'm going to shop around for a cheap laptop with at least win 7 on it. I've put it off too long, so yeah it's time for an upgrade. thanks for all the help :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sting Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) I had an erroneous charge 3 weeks ago. The charge was made same day I renewed my subscription with RLC and was made from Florida. US$46.16 charged by SHSTROK.COM. whoever they are. Bank issued new credit card but I've since cancelled my sub with RLC and won't be renewing. I do not trust SegPay anymore.

Anyone know of a good one to get? tia for any input There are probably many good ones out there. I have been using for RLC for about two and a half years now, and the only issue I had is that my subscription got cancelled once because I forgot to top up the card. Can't blame anyone but myself for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave0000 Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) Sting this is exactly the same as what happened to me! Different websites (3 different sites but all looked similar) The charges were all around 45 dollars. All in Florida. They all happened around the time segpay charged my account. Damn I was hoping it was something other then RLC. Would a prepaid card make a difference? Does anyone have personal contact with segpay so they can look into it?

super138 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Had the same thing happen to me as well. Tried a prepaid card and only used it on RLC ended up leaving $2 on it and sure enough, they went after the $2 as well. The billing site is super shady renew at your own risk.

PoeBoy Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Well, seeing all this reinforces my decision to NOT be a paying RLC member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sting Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Ok I just checked another card I've used and same again...Like Super 138 there was not enough funds when they tried to take the $45 but they cam back and took the $8 that was in. Definitely will not be renewing any membership with RLC. Everyone.....you all need to check your card statements, this is fraud no matter how you look at it.

emphphem Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I've had the same problem three times over the last three months. The first two times I didn't realize it was RLC as I was charging that card with regularity, so I figured it could have been something else. But the third time, RLC was the only thing I charged for a month, and sure enough a charge of $45.99 was on my card once again from one of those fake .COM sites. I contacted segpay and they gave me the "everything is good on our end" response. So I canceled my membership. As bad as I feel for everyone else that has dealt with this too, I'm glad I'm not the only one. It definitely seems like a segpay issue. If I ever go back, it will be the prepaid card route, but RLC for me isn't exactly giving me a reason to even think about joining again anyways.
