Dear 800notes
This appears to be a credit card fraud account

I ordered a grant kit CD-ROM and paid $3.95 for shipping and handling. I never received the cd-rom, and now my bank account was charged $74.95.  I googled the phone number and found other complaints of the same issue. It is a huge scam!!!!

I have also made this stupid misstake.  I have found another number that seams to be the same place that I was able to get an answer from.  That is 1-866-960-0858.  I was told that I would be refunded in 5 working days, but they would not give me that in writting.  Good luck to you all.

I also ordered a grant kit for my wife for $3.95 and never recieved any c.d. Now today they charged my account for $74.95. Everytime I call this number from thier website, it is busy.  If I get ahold of them I will cut their balls off!!!!!!

Received a email from Grant Writing Express about sending a CD for Grants and still charged my account, never received CD

I ordered a Grant writing CD for just shipping & can not get any e-mail address or person to answer the phnoe to cancel & had to pay the to not let anyone put in a credit.

Exactly same thing happened with me.  I am getting absolutely nowhere.  I also was charged for some other fraudulent charge of $29.95 for something called My Fitness.

I am extremely angry!!!!!!

Same here!!!!!!

Grant Writing Express, 2710 Thomas Avenue, Suite 669, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82001-3029 offereds a 7 day free trial of a CD for $3.95 shipping charge.  When your order is placed a confirmation number is issued and shipping is promised the same day.  Days later, an email is received saying that the CD will be delayed and a download is offered in its place that doesn't download.  Your money is debited from yhe account which you paid for shipping.  The phone number given is 1-888-662-8762 to address you concerns and an automated response is reached that goes to directory assistance.

I to ordered this cd and they charged my account 74.95 two times and another 29.95 I got a hold of my bank and reported them and my bank is trying to get the money back.  I hope I am lucky enough to get it bak in our accout.

If your trying to get thru to get your money back i have a cell # of one of the workers there to help you 972-900-8293 the same thing happened to me and i never recieved my cd either i canceled my order and they still took money from my account so i called them and one of the person in the office gave me this number and its all straighten out now

Called my bank and they gave me a phone number (1-866-960-0858) that was listed when payment was submitted to my account for deduction of $29.95 from my Debit/Visa card. I called the (866) number and spoke with a person at Grants/Newspin (third party service to Grant Writing Express) and they were very nice and had no problem with refuding the $29.95 and the $3.95 for shipping and handling, after all I did not receive a CD or any information from Grant Writing Express. If you call (1-866-960-0858) you shouldn't have any problems in getting your money refunded back to your account. I hope the best for you! We have to stick together as a nation (people) in regards to these scams. I want to say thank you to Patrick for posting the same number that was given to me by my bank. Wanted to tell my side of the story, in case it will help someone.

I feel your pain.  I fell for this scam as well.  I am currently disputing the charges with my credit card company as unauthorized and fraudulent charges.  I have also put a temporary hold on my account to prohibit any other charges.  There is no way to cancel since the phone number is that of some strange directory assistance.  If you used a credit card, you should be able to dispute the charges and have the money credited back to your account.

If you get a charge from GRANTS/NEWSPIN or from HLD* GrantHelpOrder.com then call 1-866-960-0858 and they will refund all the charges. Dont call 972-900-8293... Its someones personal phone number, he can't help you. They gave me a reference code and said I would get a refund in 5-7 business days. I had a $29.95, $74.95 and $3.95 charge from these people. I can't believe I found this link on CNN.Com.

Tried calling the number and it rings busy.  When I finally get through I get a message stating office hours.  I have left repeated voice mails with no response.  I guess my credit card company will be chgarging back these fradulent and unauthorized charges.  I am really mad at myself for falling for this scam.

Call cancelled the subcription during the trial period and they're still charging me a fee of $29.95 for what, I don't know.  I called that cell# and left a threatening message today.  If I don't get this resolved, I'll blast email everywhere and I just might have the news center check on this scam.  Fool me once, shame on you-Fool me twice, shame on me. I just don't want them taking money from me every month with authorization. I should have know something was up when I looked a their fake looking webpage back office. I'm glad I used a pre-paid credit card.  I'm pissed.
Here's all the names I have for this company - Grantwriting Express, Grant Funding Express, GrantHelpOrder and Grants/Newspin

Same thing has happened to me. I wonder how the person got through to the 866-960-0858 number??? It is busy, busy, busy!!

I can't believe I fell for such a scam. I never received a CD in the mail. They emailed me this program to download. I forgot all about it and then saw a charge for $74 to my checking account. I tried to call and couldn't get through so I emailed them to cancel through their "contact form". That was a week ago. Two days ago and I got the damn CD and was charged $29.95 after I canceled! I called my bank and they canceled my debit card and will reissue a new one. I am going to mail back the CD today to avoid any further problems. I should have read the terms and conditions better. I'm so mad at myself!!! Good luck to you!!

I tried calling the cell number as suggested....The gentleman who answered was pissed that I was calling him and threatened to put my number on-line....wouldn't call him if I were you...

This guy with the cell phone number does not work there, he had the same problem. I just talked to him and he is getting calls all the time and he can't do anything about it. Just don't call! :-)

I ordered the $3.95 CD and did receive it. A couple days later my account was charged with $79.95  that I recieved NOTHING for. 3 weeks later I had $29.95 taken out for Grants/newsspin. I did not order ANYTHING from these people nor have not heard of them. I have written several times and they said that they canceled my order. My $79.95 was not given back AND they took out 29.95 for a prograM I have not heard of.  I am turning this over to my Lawyer. What a scam ! ! ! ! and their ad looked so sincere.
