Puretick.com one big scam

Quote from MandelbrotSet:


P.S. Try to stay on-topic, toolshed.

Well, speaking of staying on topic, now that we have been graced with presence of JimmyJam dba Mandelbrotset, one of PukeTick's newest and most promotional devotees, perhaps he will bestow some of his newly acquired knowledge upon us which will REFUTE the topic of this thread.

Although we can't offer him a bounty like Alex did, let's hope he does this out of the goodness of his heart, for the benefit of the ET community.

Come on Mandelbrotset, don't dissapoint us.

So tell us, how are things in the PukeTick room going for you?

Is the Heiken Ashi really the Holy Grail as Alex purports?

Is Mandel really in the PureTick room?

he is the newly appointed director of shilling and pillow fluffer for Alex in the nursing home.

He changes Alex's diaper in hopes he will be guven a few crumbs or some PukeTick room access.

He'd have a better chance getting crumbs from standing around at Washington Station. Wrinkly old Mandy.
 
Quote from rolextrader:

This has got to be one of the most convoluted and deceptive cancellation policies I've ever seen and the only way you find it is by pressing tiny, well hidden terms and conditions button.

Look what one has to go through to make sure they aren't charged beyond the $29.00 trial period.

It's no surprise people have complained publicly about PukeTick's "stealing."

"Expired trial memberships automatically rebill upon expiration at the normal rate, unless a special referral code is entered. All memberships are on a month-to-month basis. Recurring billing is done on the day your trial expires then every succeeding month. Please let us know at least three days in advance if you wish to cancel your trading access. That is, if you join on the 5th you will be charged for 10 days and then your card will be billed on the 15th for the full amount for next month's service. The trial period is based on actual calendar days, not business days and starts as soon as you submit your application.

Trial memberships are based on calendar days. Holidays, weekends and other foreseen events are not factored in. It would be quite impossible to program a computer to skip all the strange events us humans observe. If you sign up on 3/20/2006, your trial would end on 3/30/2006.

Cancellation requests may NOT be done via e-mail and only via phone. Please call 877 GO LONG1 or 828 333 4072 This is due to the fact that the over-wealming amounts of spam on the Internet cause e-mail to be unreliable. We want to make sure there are no miscommunications. Voice mail and fax is also acceptable.

If you signed up with PayPal, you will need to login to PayPal.com and cancel you reoccuring subscription as well. We do NOT handle PayPal cancellations. Log on to www.paypal.com and select the transaction. At the bottom of it there will be a little button that says 'cancel subscription'. We only control the sign ups from our OWN billing ( www.puretick.com/start.html )

You will RECEIVE AN EMAIL confirmation with cancellation NUMBER when we process your cancel request. It is your responsibility to call back if you do not! This confirmation will be required should there ever be a billing question or dispute. We will also accept a copy of your phone bill showing that you called in to cancel.
If for some reason you can not reach us by phone or via the normal channels please send a FAX letter with signature to 828-348-4239 This way, should there ever be a question as to when you canceled you can use the date of that letter as proof you did indeed cancel.

Expired trial memberships automatically rebill upon expiration at the normal rate, unless a special referral code is entered. Ie: You sign up for the trial on Dec 5th: You'll be charged the trial rate and then on the 15th of the month billed $299.
You will be CHARGED for the service weather you use it or NOT. As to say if you are not in the trading room but your account is ACTIVE and you have not called to cancel, you will be billed as usual. Ex: You have basketball season passes and miss a few games. You can not request a refund for the season passes. Please! It is imperative that you cancel your account if you wish to discontinue membership.

You agree that you have no right to dispute charges from PureTick if you forget to cancel before your rebill date. You can reach us day or night if you wish to speak with us regrading billing.

All subscriptions are automatically renewed at the normal rate (unless you entered a discount referral code) when your trial period is up unless canceled. Subscriptions reoccur on a month to month basis. All subscription fees are non-refundable once they have been billed to your card. This includes the montly fee and trial membership. Subscriptions are active/valid as soon as you submit your application.

All of our policies, rules, terms and notices fall under the EST time frame, GMT-5. Ex: If you call to cancel your account at March 4th 11PM PST, it will be March 5th on the east coast and our server may have already billed your account.

Cancellation requests are to be via our cancellations page and are not official until the member receives a confirmation from PureTick. You MUST give the correct user name and password for your cancellation to be effective; this is obviously to prevent malicious cancellations. Failure to give the correct user name and password combination will result in your cancellation NOT being processed.

If you wish to cancel, please let us know at least three (3) days in advance of your trial expiring, or rebilling period date."

It's real easy guys. I am not sure about other banks, but I use Bank of America and in their online banking they have whats called shop safe. You generate a credit card #, amount and expiration date. It taps off your real credit card number but the vendors never know. You set the credit limit of say $ 29.00 and when puretick trys to rebill additional amounts guess what ... charge denied !!! Hope this helps.
 
Quote from SusanaDT:

To all the Puretick victims (not Alex Wannabeski, you are not the victim here):

Don't you realize you can't even come close to the Track Record ?

You keep trying, you give it another shot, I'm gonna be good, I'm gonna be perfect. By the time you realize this is an impossible task because Alex is a buffoon, it's already too late, you've been scammed by Puredick for several months.

Don't you realize you got the blind leading the blind ?

Once in a while a trade will make money and this will give you hope and that's when Alex will try to make you think that when you lose it's because you did something wrong and when you won it's because you did something right. That's the scheme.

Bottomline, can you mimic half of what the track record posts ? Of course you cannot because it's all one big lie.

CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT NOW!

It's not going to get any better.

Who's gonna back them up one of their aliases, like Bankster ?

Accurately,
Susana

Your a successful trader but you're still harping on Puretick?

Sad ... really sad. :(

LMAO, not in this lifetime.

rolextrader has gone out of his way to bash Puretick in an attempt to get back $5.00 that he says they owe him.

He has even gone so far as to stop trading during the day (not that he was ever any good at it) to come here and bash Puretick all day:

Quote from rolextrader:

I didn't trade today.

Too busy exposing you and your new employer, PukeTick.

rolextrader doesn't trade

I'm bashing rolextrader, not supporting Puretick.
 
<i>"Are you one of Puretick's victims? If not I was not addressing you. Accurately, Susana"</i>

No offense meant to you directly. But imagine if you will being one of the few hundred regular readers this website forum still has left. Forget about the 1,000s who have dwindled away and won't be back... put yourself in the waning population's shoes for a moment.

You open up this website hoping to find something, anything constructive or interesting to read, comment on or learn from. Nope, fooled again. Just another endless stream of PureTick drivel threads.

Aside from a few no-life individuals, who the hell really cares? If someone takes the $30 trial and feels gipped, call your credit card company and charge it back. How simple is that? For gosh sakes is there anyone here who cannot afford to waste > lose $30 without irrepairable harm?

I thought this site was geared toward elite traders... ya know, the ones who are focused on trading and self-improvement. Few of us see anything that can be remotely accused of such. It's a free world. We can simply opt to tune out instead of clicking in. For sure that's what I'll be doing. Other than the P&L 2009 thread, the balance of ET is an intellectual wasteland.

As y'all were... please continue. Didn't mean to disturb the habitual antics here.

Out for good

Yes, he is.

Asking him is like asking a barber if you need a haircut.

Of course he will deny it and get around the issue, but he posted this in his own thread before fighting with me.

Quote from MandelbrotSet:

For the time being, it appears that Alex has a viable business going and he is (in all likihood) making a lot of money from it.

(But feel free to post about him [Alex] if you must, LOL - I really don't care either way). :)

Others here you know him also say he is in the room, amd the PukeTick people have implied it too.

I think Alice is paying him a cut from every new member that signs up from ET.

Everyone is entitled to make an honest living.

Given his history of bashing PukeTick, I understand why he won't admit he's a shill for them.
