Is GRI fraud?

• Subscription Services: Many users reported signing up for subscription plans which auto-renew, leading to unexpected charges if not canceled in time.
• One-Time Purchases: Some users made individual purchases, such as reports or data access, resulting in a charge that may have been overlooked.
• Trial Period Charges: Several customers experienced charges after a free trial, often due to not canceling before the trial ended.
• Account Upgrades: Users mentioned upgrades to premium services that incurred additional fees, which were not clearly communicated.
• Multiple Accounts: Confusion between multiple user accounts led to some users being charged on the wrong account, especially if they had forgotten about a previous subscription.
• Service Fees: Depending on specific services accessed through GRI, users might incur additional fees that weren’t initially apparent.
• Promotional Charges: New users reported being charged for promotional services after the promotional period ended without clear notifications.
• Payment Method Issues: Instances of incorrect billing due to expired payment methods or bank issues were also noted by users.

If you see this charge and aren’t expecting it, you have various options.

First, try to contact the gri.com via one of the support methods we listed below and inquire about the charge. See if they will refund it and cancel any associated subscriptions you might have.

If the gri.com refused to issue a refund or you cannot get in touch with the company, call your bank or financial institution and open a credit card dispute. Record screenshot evidence from your prior conversations with gri.com, and use that to open your credit card dispute. Tell your bank or credit card issuer that you do not recognize the charge and do not recall signing up for the service.

If this sounds like too much of a hassle, you can have Chargeback do it for you.
