Escaping Scott Kelby

I may have mistakenly signed up with the Kelby organization to receive an expensive newsletter. The Kelby offer appeared to be part of a free offer I found here in UHH. I have been unable to escape Mr. Kelby's clutches, and at $20/Month this is serious to me. I cannot tell whether I have canceled or not. The contact/cancel site (found here on UHH today, 8/125/15), gives little information, is non-intuitive, and (to me) begins to smell a bit like those "free" clean your registry programs found throughout the internet.

Does anyone know how to contact Kelby, how to learn if one is registered, and if so, how to get free of the mistaken order for service or newsletter that may have been ordered?

This possible subscription was made less than 30 minutes ago.

Thanks,

Mercer

Try (855) 773-8498, a US phone number. Probably not open on Saturday though.

Contact the bank and dispute all charges that are from the time you decided to cut off your subscription.

Kelby sucks is so many ways too...

Yes, definitely call your bank and dispute the charge. You didn't want it, but you got it and tried to cancel. that's enough.

I've done that with the bank about credit card charges. They just process the charge. It's not like stopping a check.

I have credit cards with Chase, and as soon as I call, they issue a credit for the charge. Then they investigate and send me a written confirmation. I've never had to pay for a disputed charge. Of course the charge has to be bogus to begin with. I couldn't just travel cross country voiding all my charges. Wishful thinking. :D

I agree. Go to the bank and cancel the automatic draw the guy has for your $20.00 a month. Once you do that, he will probably call you.

Scott Kelby is not a fly by night or a huckster...don't freak about it.

It's Saturday.

On Monday call the contact info from his site (I'm sure that there is contact info in any email you got from him) or find it at scottkelby.com.

Explain that you want a refund...nobody is trying to rip you off.

PS: Do you mean that you signed up for Kelby One on a monthly basis?

http://kelbyone.com/subscribe/

It's says right on the website "cancel anytime"

Call them Monday and don't start a thread about how Kelby ripped you off; that's unfair.

It's right on the web site, cancel anytime.
The OP doesn't have to treat this like Kelby is some guy sitting in an internet cafe in Zimbabwe trying to get him/her to give him his pin number or something.

It's a real, legit training site that charges $20.00 per month and anytime you want you can cancel.

He does seem to be hyperventilating. He signed up for the subscription 30 minutes before posting.

If you need to develop your skills and can foot the bill, Kelbyone is a very good way to go.

You will have no problem canceling your subscription. Customer service is responsive.
