GuitarControl.com Reviews
I placed an order from guitar control for some guitar instruction. i later learned i was recieving recurrent $19.95 bill.
i contacted them via email and they refused to refund my money even though i never entered ther web site. i contacted my credit card company and found they would not go back and recover the total amount. I am out $80 to $100.
i believe what goes arround comes around. they rip people off they willgoout of business. do not buy ther products.
I signed to a free 30 day trial in response to one of Claude Johnson's interminable email offers on 25 March 2017.
Unbeknown to me, he included a single line buried in an email stating that I would be billed monthly if I did not cancel a subscription which I was unaware that I had started. Since then he has deducted 19.95 from my account monthly on:
27 April
22 May
22 June and
24 July.
These amounts were decucted for belonging to something called a Guitar Gods Club which I'd never heard of.
In short , this man is a pest and a sneak. Do yourself a favour and send his emails straight to the trash.
Neither is this an isolated incident. He had previously billed me for goods not received in or around 2009.
I signed up with Claude Johnson to receive his frequent reports about his guitar instruction courses, and he sent free tips and videos about playing. I never payed anything, until one time he advertised something for just a dollar. I don't remember what it was, but I thought I couldn't lose at that price, so I signed up and gave him my card number. Now I look back on it, I received a puzzling email telling me I'd signed up for something, but I couldn't understand what it was about, so I paid it little mind, and forgot about it.
About a year later, I happened to notice a $19.95 unauthorized debit in my acct. and I went to the bank to talk about it. They said they'd remove it conditionally, but could only go back six months, so the rest was a loss. I said great, and that was done. Just today, however, the conditional refund was removed again from my acct, causing an overdraft, which I took care of, but I looked online under Claude Johnson scam, and came up with this website [thanks, guys] and decided to file a report, so others will know how Claude Johnson, who runs a great business, and helps guitar players, has descended into the depths of scammery. In his defence, Claude says that it's a common business practice to hide the actual cost to the consumer in the corner somewhere, so they end up paying without noticing, but if they paid attention, they would find it's legal. I changed my card to stop them from continuing to charge me forever. I think Claude Johnson must have convinced my bank that the debits were legal, and that's why the bank gave him back the money, but there's something fishy here, because I never personally got anything for the dollar I spent, but I lost the 19.95 a month for a year or more. I wondered why I hadn't got anything for my money, and I bet that legally, I might have had access to something, but I think that once I signed up, they really wanted me to forget about it, so I wouldn't notice the money leaving my acct. They said it was some guitar god club, but for the life of me, that's all I ever got was a name.
So be careful and keep an eye on Claude Johnson, if you have anything to do with him. I understand that he's found a way to get rich in the grey areas of barely legal, and for that , although I sympathise with him, I now know him for what he has become.
