I hate Account Now, here's why!

A while back my friend Liz was in need of a bunch of money, and she told me about this thing called AccountNow. She has a credit card with them, and she told me that if you sign up with them, they give her $20. Well, I decided it would be a good idea to help her, and so I signed up for one. However, neither of us had any idea of what we were in for. She ended up getting a new card from them, and they still charged them for it. As if that wasn't bad enough, they charged her to call them. To call their number they apparently charge a hidden fee for that. There was also another charge they issued her, and she couldn't even figure out what it was for. So, she opted out of her card and now I'm trying to do the same, but I couldn't figure it out. They don't make it easy to cancel your account. And to make matters worse, their customer service is downright horrible! I asked them how I close my account, and they didn't even respond to my message. So, I tried sending an email asking them to do it, and it simply said they had a problem sending it.

In conclusion, you do NOT want to deal with these people, they are only out for your money, and they will try to make sure you can't opt out of their service. Do NOT trust them, you're better off getting a checking account at a local bank and getting a credit/debit card with them so you won't have to pay any fees. Me and Liz learned this the hard way.
