Harrisburg, PA: Attorney General Tom Corbett filed charges against the two companies for allegedly tricking people in 17 states into paying for membership programs that claimed to offer discounts on automotive service, home repair and other services. Chase Bank, its subsidiary Chase Home Finance, and Trilegiant allegedly offered free trial memberships to various discount programs without informing consumers that they would be automatically charged fees if they did not cancel the memberships within a certain time period. Chase and Trilegiant are not admitting any wrongdoing, but have agreed to pay a $14.5 million settlement. (Dec-11-06)[]
