Is PONY Services fraud?

• Subscription Services: Users may unknowingly subscribe to services or memberships that automatically renew, leading to unexpected charges.
• One-time Purchases: Charges can arise from one-time purchases made for products or services on the site.
• In-app Purchases: For app users, in-app purchases could result in charges that may not have been clearly communicated.
• Free Trials: Customers often forget to cancel free trials that convert to paid subscriptions after the trial period ends.
• Bundled Services: Users might sign up for bundled services that include ongoing fees they were not aware of initially.
• Account Misuse: Some users report unauthorized charges due to account sharing or their credentials being compromised.
• Promotional Offers: Sometimes, promotional offer terms may not be clear, leading to charges once the promotional period ends.
• Payment Errors: Billing errors can happen, causing duplicate charges or incorrect amounts being billed.
• Inactive Accounts: Users may still incur fees for services associated with inactive accounts if they are not properly canceled.
• Membership Fees: Some users may forget about membership fees tied to specific features or communities on the platform.

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

First, try to contact the pony.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 pony.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 pony.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.
