New registrants: if you try to register you will get a message that we are not accepting new members. Due to the limitations of this forum software which is not designed to deal with incessant CIA harrassment, we have no alternative but to disable automatic registration, and then we can't change this automatic message. Your account needs to be created by admin before you can post in the forums. Because otherwise, almost all registrants are CIA sock puppets. To get a forum account you need to send a brief presentation email to loohanforum at gee mail dot com, also suggesting a user name. Then we can enable you manually. But before you even do that, take a look around the forum and my site and decide whether you REALLY WANT to join/post, before you jack us around. Most seemingly genuine people who apply fail to even ever log in once to change their password after we go through the work of creating a membership for them. Then we must quickly delete their account again lest the CIA has intercepted their temporary password. And of the few who do change their password, most still never post. Maybe they realize we are too weird for them, I don't know. They get real quiet, never to be heard from again.
GLOSSARY: Sometimes unusual terminology or abbreviations are used that with some luck you might find defined here.

Amazon covertly billing for Prime
I rec'd an email today from Amazon about my Prime membership which i had no clue about.
Because i hadn't scrutinized my statements closely enough, i had failed to notice that they had been billing me $14.16 a month since last April.
I called the fraud dept of my bank and they said Amazon routinely does this and is good about refunding.
I called Amazon. They had given me a free 1-month trial in March, which expired.
Apparently somewhere in small print they hide that if you don't cancel this expired membership they will extract a monthly fee from your account until you catch on.
After many minutes of Muzak, Amazon confirmed that they would cancel and refund.
It is odd that they sent me no emails mentioning my membership until 10 months had passed.

Re: Amazon covertly billing for Prime
I think Amazon boss is too busy sending text messages with big pictures to notice these small details, it can only be a mistake, not an organized fraud of vast proportion?
Maybe technically it is not theft because if you ask the thief nicely they give you your money back lol. Notice that the fraud department is aware of this,
"usual fraud, nothing to worry about, just ask the thief nicely", not likely they would do something about it to defend their customer, there s honor among thieves after all.

Re: Amazon covertly billing for Prime
Sorry, it was just some info on how Amazon work. Most things on the internet are bots and web crawlers.
