Is VendTek fraud?

• Subscriptions: Customers may accidentally sign up for subscription services related to equipment or supplies that automatically renew, leading to unexpected charges.
• Unauthorized Purchases: Some users report charges due to their accounts being accessed without their consent, resulting in purchases they did not authorize.
• Trial Period Charges: Users might forget to cancel free trials, which can transition into paid subscriptions, resulting in charges after the trial period ends.
• Shipping Fees: Additional shipping or handling fees can appear on invoices that are separate from the initial purchase price.
• Equipment Rentals: Charges may come from equipment rentals, particularly if the return deadline was missed or the rental was extended.
• Re-stocking Fees: If returning equipment, some users reported facing re-stocking fees that were higher than expected.
• Hidden Fees: Certain service fees may not be clearly outlined at checkout, causing confusion upon the final charge.
• Service Reinstatements: Charges for services can appear if a previously canceled service is accidentally reinstated without the customer’s knowledge.

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

First, try to contact the vendtek.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 vendtek.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 vendtek.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.
