When buying an eye cream online at the end of the transaction an offer of $25 worth of free gas from Canadian Tire came up - I clicked "yes." I was expecting the voucher to arrive with my eye cream but didn't think too much of it when it didn't. When my credit card statement arrived it showed a debit of $19.95 from Bargain Link. When I called to ask why they were debiting my credit card it turned out that the gas voucher had "terms and conditions" in very small box. I asked them to stop charging me and was willing to suck up the first charge for missing the "terms." Three months later I am still calling the company as they continue to charge me. My credit card company can't block individual merchants so it looks as though I will have to cancel my card and get a new one.
