Just in case... since SE has such 'wonderful' customer service....

There was a time when a company attempted to continue debiting my account without my approval.
Simple process of cancelling the 'card/debit/cc' and having a new one issued.

Glad you found the details in time!

Blssssngs,

I almost got caught up in that one but it was e-smokingtrial. com instead.

They were not even going to send me the refills, just charge me for the basic kit after two weeks. I didn't know this till after I ordered it and they called the next day.
I looked at the site a number of times and there was no mention so I told them I wanted to look around at pricing. They called me a week later and dropped the price to $99 and then $89 but both are outrages prices.

There are local stores that carry them. Here we have Smoker friendly stores and smokingeverywhere kiosk in the malls. The prices are higher (smoker friendly has a two battery kit for $69) but it is nice having the option of getting it now instead of waiting for the mail box. Especially if you are out of juice and are tempted by a pack of analogs.

As it is, I bought locally at first and now am ordering supplies on line.

I'm glad I read this thread, because I did the same thing as Brik and I also live in Denver and didn't know Smoker Friendly sold some of this stuff.

Thanks for all the information.

I can't believe what Smoking Everywhere is doing. The E-cig isn't very well known yet, and they're already destroying the image.

Not only that but when they bury the details so deep you can't see it until it's too late they will have people complaining all over the place possibly giving more amo to the FDA to ban them. They get so many people buying their stuff at hugely inflated prices I don't see why they think they need to try to rip people even more.

That's true, Jim. I gave them the 10 bucks a couple of weeks ago. They advertised one free 4081 and a charger for $9.95. They won't send me the product without a phone call and now I know it is a scam to suck me in to their cartridges via phone.

To hell with the 10 bucks, I just hope the credit card I gave them is safe. Freaking scammers.

That's why we use virtual one time use card numbers... a magazine vendor got me some how along with dvd subcriptions,

a few too many vodka tonics and texas holdem, click the "earn free chips here link", next thing you know I got a box of Harry Potter movies, time and entertainment weekly, and 60 bucks every 3 months recurring charge.

That was the end of "real" cc numbers for me...

but hey I also got like 990,000 chips to use... lol
