Hey, guys, I hope this is of assistance to some of you.

Last month, I subscribed to Professional Handicapping for a trial period. Towards the end of it, I realised it did not do me much good, I was winning almost as much as before, so I asked him to cancel my subscription. The thing is he never did and Paypal charged me with the 1-month regular fee! I repeatedly asked to give my money back, but he´s ignoring my e-mails and I keep bumping on his voice mail every time I try to call him... Hope you understand it´s not about the money, but it´s very annoying to be taken for a fool like that.
At least, it tought me a lesson. I´ll never pay for "betting services" in my life!

you can go to paypal/accounts/subscriptions and make sure its not setup to pay this dude monthly.....if it is and you dont cancel it there they will keep sending it every month...cancel it at paypal.

login to your paypal acct, on top you should see a button called "Resolution Center", go there file a complaint, they will take care of it

Thanks you, guys. Have already got Paypal´s confirmation that the subscription has been cancelled.

Just hope this gentleman does not get anyone else like that...

I don't bet bases all that much, but these guys have sent me "free weeks" 3 different times and each time they've lost...badly. What's funny is that I am always getting email from them telling me what an incredible run they are on. They must do INCREDIBLE during the weeks they are not sending me plays for free.

I Agree Totaly!!

However, (a big caveat) I started getting emails about a month ago from something called VIP and a guy named Jeff something. I`ve only paid for a svc. once in my life and it was Doc about 20 yrs ago (he was $$ then). Never since and never will. As I said this Jeff has been sending between 4-7 pix a day mostly sides maybe 20% totals. And he HAS been on a run, over 60%. The last 10 days or so I did play a few if I also liked them. Have to admit I did make some $$. The trial is now over and he wants me to join I won`t of course but just posted this FYI. The cappers on our BB forum and a couple on "Covers" have been very good to me. I`m sure there are a FEW good ones out there, but I`m not willing to pay to find out.

If your paypal transaction ends up on your credit card you can and will get re-imbursed by them. I use paypal and have been stiffed on Ebay, after giving paypal an opportunity to straighten it out without success, I had my CC provider reverse charges. Its a pain, but if it is on your CC you will get re-imbursed.
