Is Petkey Subscription fraud?

• Subscription Services: Many users report being charged for monthly or annual subscription services that they may not have realized they signed up for when registering their pets.
• Registration Fees: Charges can occur for registering a pet through their database or for obtaining a microchip, which some users might overlook.
• Optional Add-Ons: Some users mention charges for additional features or services, like premium listings or faster processing, that they may have unintentionally selected during the registration process.
• Renewal Fees: Users report unexpected charges related to the automatic renewal of services if they did not cancel before the renewal date.
• Multiple Charges for the Same Pet: There are instances where customers find multiple charges for registering the same pet due to confusion over multiple accounts or transactions.
• Product Purchases: Customers have noted being charged for pet-related products or supplies purchased through the Petkey website that they may have forgotten about.
• Inadvertent Sign-Ups: Some users mention being signed up for services during promotions or trial periods, leading to subsequent charges if not canceled in time.
• Hidden Fees: Reports of unexpected fees for services that were not clearly disclosed at the time of the transaction have also been noted by users.

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

First, try to contact the petkey.org 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 petkey.org 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 petkey.org, 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.
