don't bother... after I spent over two hours digging the info from past credit card statements and filing all of the info, I got an email saying that I have a 10 dollars credit to use on their site, not only that you also need to put down money and fund the old campaine in order to get the extra cash... a waste of money and time.
I will never spend more money on these sites! and I recommend that to you too!

Those crooks deserve jail, not just paying back some credits.

This class action didn't seem to change these crooks .... they just took me for a couple hundred. Best thing we can do is pass the word and hope they run out of business.

Unfortunately Class-Actions only server to enrich the lawyers. Web related businessed just seem to change their names and move on to the next problem causing behavior.

I've been involved in a class action lawsuit a couple of times. I think I ended up with a couple of coupons valued at under $10 while the litigators got millions. They are just not worth my time.

But, I think it is important that justice be served.
