i totally agree.. They stole my 25.00 dollars for nothing. They offered me free trial & i cancelled it before the free trial expired but guess what they still charged me 23.95.
PATHETIC!!!

[...] it on a computer or hooking up your computer to your TV. However, the biggest negative is that MLB likes to steal your money or at least they liked to steal [...]

I am sure that MLB has hired craft credit card employees to help design their web site to extract the maximum cash from your pocket.

That is a huge bummer. There are so many tricks these companies play now to squeeze every little cent out of you. More often than ever, now I see companies require you to hand over your credit card info when testing a software program. If you’re one to sign up for these trials, it is going to be nearly impossible to remember when to cancel before being charged up the whizoo. I don’t like it!

Wow! I love baseball, but that is awful! I would keep trying, if only because of the principle of the matter. I would also contact the writers at SI.com. I think it is John Donovan who had a couple big articles about how MLB made their new contracts with Direct TV. I don’t know if he would write about it, but it sure would look horrible for MLB if he did!

I say scrap the TV altogether. My family and I did it a while back and it’s worked wonders. Immediate: you get your time back (seriously, how many of those 300+ channels do you really watch?) to de-clutter your mind and personal/biz affairs (not to mention the bennies of not being tempted to melt your kids’ brains). Long term: Cash. Think about how much $$ is spent on the tube (panel, display, pick your poison)itself, plus the power, etc. Scrap the brain drain!! Cheers.

Then, they wonder why so many people get a dish and a computer in order to steal all channels and get free TV !

I had the same problem last year. I called like 2 weeks into the 2nd month when I realized they had charged me again. I said I didn’t realize they automatically renewed the 2nd month and that I had not even been using it. They checked my “usage” and saw I did not log in or watch any games. They refunded my money (took another 2 weeks). But they did it.

Keep trying lazy man, it is worth $20.

Chase says the burden of proof is on me to show the documentation of what I checked off in the buying process. I understand that they need evidence, but at the same time it’s not practically possible. I was thinking of going though the process again to see the exact copy. All that said, this was a case where I actually read most or all of the fine print.

I can’t imagine the credit card company siding with MLB – the terms would seem to be very unclear. Unless the specifics were spelled out in the fine print that no one ever reads ( or could, without magnifying the font ). If they do, I say find a new credit card.
