Help! Somehow I got signed up for Columbiahouse.com!!

The posts in the SR forum regarding this are in the "techincal issues" section.

Thanks! I wish I had seen that before today! I never even looked at the e-mails until after the package arrived. I found them in my junk folder today! What a pain in the you-know-where this all is!!

I just got this e-mail from Columbiahouse:

"Thank you for your e-mail message.

Account #xxxxxxx

While you requested to be called, your inquiry is usually handled by a Customer
Service Representative to assure quick response. If your inquiry is not
addressed to your satisfaction, please reply to this e-mail and it will be
forwarded appropriately.

We received your inquiry regarding the membership in Columbia House DVD Club
that was established in your name. You have advised us that you did not
establish this account.

We have reviewed the account carefully and note that we received a request in
your name to enroll you in Columbia House DVD Club. As a courtesy we are
canceling your membership and waiving any amounts due. We are also sending a mailing label via regular mail to return any unwanted selections.

Please disregard any further promotions, correspondence, billings, etc. you may receive from us regarding this matter.

If we may be of further service, please contact us at
http://www.columbiahouse.com."

I am glad they took care of this without a "fight" but I sure am interested in knowing how they received a request from me to enroll me and send me "The 40-Year-Old Virgin"!!

Just got the same email as LorieR. Let's hope that means it's really taken care of!!

From what I see on the SR forum, it appears that Brandarama may be the culprit. Tricia posted that she has pulled all of the their offers from her site after doing a quick sign up using a unique email addy. Not long afterwards, she got a welcome email from MyPoints even though she did not sign up for it or anything else.

So, just a heads up...if you see Brandarama on any other GPT site, avoid it!
