Has anyone else been scammed by Realtytrac?

WARNING! I fell for the "trial" period offer. When they pursued me for a full time "professional" account , I told them I was not interested and that did not wish to keep the service. Of course, they billed me anyway and when I called to question them regarding the $50.00 charge, they refused to take it off my credit card. To add insult to injury, they were difficult to deal with. MAKE SURE YOU THOROUGHLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SIGNING ON FOR BEFORE YOU GIVE THESE PEOPLE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION.

Hey Nick, you gave an answer to my 100% financing question and what you said makes sense for some cases but not all. Not every market in every area is declining and there are these things called equity builders. In other words thinking outside the box when making mortgage payments. Like getting set up on bi-weekly mortgage payments and paying fifty dollars more toward your mortgage each month instead of buying beer or realtytrac. That will get you down to about 14 years instead of 30, in terms of time. So your answer was no good. But thanks. If you want to know more about 0 money down and equity builders call me 937-576-2422 x4002 Charlie

This is Rick from RealtyTrac. We don't bill anyone before the 7-day trial has ended. But, if you forget to cancel, and call in to cancel after the free trial period, we don't automatically issue a refund. If you feel that you've been billed in error, please drop me an e-mail so that I can investigate your claim, and issue a refund if we made a mistake.
