You actually bought that crap? A person who uses their gifts for profits are not really trying to help you, all they care about is the money. I just can't believe you payed hard earned cash talking to someone who was bsin' the entire thing. And no, I doubt you'll get a refund...

Having run a bbs back in the day where we worked with a 900 service to allow our users to pay for time through their phone bill, I can tell you that it's easy for you to dispute the call.
It automatically comes off your bill, and it's very difficult for the 900 service to prove anything. This isn't ethical, as you did make the call, and you did receive advice, however bad. If they advertise that it's for entertainment purposes only, then you got what you asked for.. however, not all companies do that. You should attempt to dispute the charge and see if they have a refund policy.
Good luck with this. I'm sorry that you had a bad experience.

No you can't.
Why would you take what someone on the 900 line searious.
If you do it just as a fun thing to do the ok but that is it.
Just say you spent the money to learn that some times what you think is, is not. Cheap lesson I think.
Call me any time and I sure would take your money as well. I will tell yo anything you want to hear. Just think the longer I can keep you on line the more I get. Wow why not call now.

No, I don't think you can get a refund. You would have to prove what she said was not true.Psychics on the phone are not that good. Some have no ability at all. They don't claim to be 100% You paid for it for the entertainment value according to the laws.

Did you get a written guarantee? I think not. It was for entertainment only.
Maybe the reversal of charges should go with a reversal of your reading then she would be right and you couldn't do anything anyway.

this was a learning experience for you. suggest you be cynical and skeptical of any psychics from now on. did a sociology paper on them and proved they were inaccurate. ever after 10 years after the class I was receiving ads from psychics I never heard of

I guess you didn't read the small print at the bottom of the screen that said, (For Entertainment Only). Sorry, no refund

No. You called them so you are liable for the charges. Even if you say you did not call them, a friend or guest did...they will still make you pay.

Not even close. Those psychic lines are for ENTERTAINMENT only (they should tell you that initially). There is no reality in those numbers, current or future.
