New topic PrintableOK, so what I want to know is who the hell is this company that has my credit card number and can just charge willy-nilly without anybody's authorization!!
Like I said earlier, I will never, ever, ever never never ever give prince a f'n dime of my hard earned mondey. Done doing any kind of business with you little man. Absolutly fini. What a complete ass he is. Oh, and yes I was charged. I think lameusflower.com was abandoned long ago by penis head and his development team. They could give a shit and then send some email apologizing after they steal my money. I emailed those fuckers at least 6 times since january. Not another dime you little prick, how would you like it if I took $77,000 out of your account and then you had to go to a fan site about me to find out that I did it. I know need to call my bank and make sure that you follow through and refund. What a pain in the ass you are Prince. Money don't matter 2 night, my ass. Oh, and by the way pay your f'n taxes. | |

I'm not enthusiastic about lotusflow3r.com fading 2 black like all its predecessors; the long black-out period between 3121.com and lotusflow3r.com was bleak. Prince should keep the site alive as is, with all the founders getting an ongoing "free" membership, until such time as a new project emerges when significant new content will be uploaded.

Someone tell Prince I'll build him a WAY better website and probably charge him a hell of a lot less than what those guys did. |

And further more, to quote Prince,
"I hate a skinny skench talking straight out her hat About a credit card, and how I need 2 give her mine I swear 2 God I'll step on that neck every time!" "Work That Fat" by the artist formerly known as havin his shit together. I will restate, this is no way to become one of the 144,000. | |

If you have ever joined any website and used your credit card they can and will charge you without notification. This is a common practice and it drives consumers crazy.
ESPN and I are battling right now after charging my card 17 times in 2 years after I canceled my subscription. | |

If we knew it and posted about it on here. Prince and his team knew it too. They just chose to do nothing about it until all hell broke loose. Prince, seriously, call me. We can work out a deal and you could have an online presence that WORKS. You could work with people that understand you and your fans would have a satisfying experience. THINK about it. I agree 100% with you here. There are several fan based sites that could produce an excellent product that would benefit Prince and the fans. | |

Only 6 hours after it was posted on this unofficial website. I wonder why Prince didn't have it posted on Dr. Funkenberry? (Or has he? I never check that site.) The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |

2nd Year LotusFlow3r membership
Dear , It has come to our attention that some of our members have erroneously been charged for a second year of membership to Lotusflow3r.com. We understand that this must be very worrying, and are working right now to make sure that everyone has their money refunded as soon as possible. Sincere apologies for this inconvenience, and thank you for your support over the last year. Sincerely, LotusFlow3r.com Since their email obviously still works, they've just been flat out ignoring all your email inquiries and requests for membership cancellations! How nice! I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |

ESPN and I are battling right now after charging my card 17 times in 2 years after I canceled my subscription. The difference is that ESPN is still a functioning website. love2chargeu4nothing.com no longer works. That is called stealing my friend. Most sites that I have a subscription with actually respond to customer questions, especially months before membership is due if I want to cancel. 2ndly, I usually get an email telling me that my account is getting reading to be charged. | |

Well, if I remember correctly, there was a clause in the fine print up on sign up about auto renewals, which means you'll automatically be charged for continued periods of service unless you notify them otherwise. That's why so many disappointed orgers were posting threads about changing their credit card info to all zeros to avoid the auto renewal charge. So, it's perfectly legal for them to charge for a second year. The fact that they're refunding those auto renewal charges is all the proof we need that there will not be a second year--teasing orb on the site or not. -- [Edited 3/25/10 19:37pm] "I Was FINE Back in the Day!" | |

Why is it perfectly legal (your words) for a company to put in fine print --"email such and such to cancel your account"-- and then they don't respond and then charge your credit card for a second year for a site that doesn't exist? The point is that they did not respond to my emails to cancel the freakin account. There was at least 6 requests to cancel if not more, I lost count actually. Tell me one good reason why this was handled this way. | |

I've used authorize.net before and these peeps are full of BS. They are the ones that accidentally authorized the reoccurring billing. Don't be blaming auth.net for your own stupid mistake. Space for sale... | |

Nothing accidental about it. The wrote it into the damn terms and conditions. Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it. |

Dear LotusFlow3r.com members,
We were saddened to hear today that the earliest adopters of LotusFlow3r.com were charged $77 for a repeat subscription to the website. We did not expect this action to occur automatically as we had not set up a recurring billing script in our code. After getting on the phone with the payment gateway Authorize.net, we found that the subscriptions were being renewed on their end. We immediately discontinued the recurring billing for all further subscriptions and we will be refunding those who have been charged. We are very sorry for the inconvenience and are working quickly to refund anyone who was charged for a second year. Please be aware that Prince himself had no hand in this and that the error was due to lack of thoroughness on our part. Sincerely, LotusFlow3r development team this sounds like nothing more than "circling the wagons". | |
