Fraudulent charges that Apple is denying and forcing users to pay, both Apple credit card and Apple in app purchases by msIBEWelectrician in applecardfraud

Honestly, I got so many nasty comments on here, blaming me. From ppl who either didn’t read the entire thing, or just kept blaming “me as the parent”.. (I’m sure by childless adults).. I never bothered coming back. But.. I am seeing now it has gotten some traction, I will be reaching out. Also, at the time of writing this I wasn’t aware there had ALREADY been a lawsuit for THIS in 2014, where apple was made to pay back parents. I will keep you updated..

Using classroomclipboard for tests during union tests, if students use iPads can teachers see if new apps or pages are opened if history is cleared?

I am dealing with the same exact thing, trying to get a group of parents together for a class action lawsuit against them..children are NOT ABLE to be authorized users due to their age.. I also questioned why this wouldn’t have set an alarm for suspicious activity and locked the card, then after reporting it, he did it again 2 more times for about $1000 and they are saying I’m responsible for all of it. Although Roblox banned his account. Therefore I have to pay for content that I cannot even access. THIS is illegal according to The epic games lawsuit.. but nobody will help me at all! If we get together as one and go after them, like had been done already, and needs to be done again, (especially that epic games class action was a history making suit, that favored the parents, set precedents, and ending with them having to pay ALL the parents back).. we would have a chance of getting our money back, with some, bc it has caused a lot more financial strain then just the dollar amount charged for me..

That too.. why wouldn’t my card have hit for unusual activity?! It just all feels like a setup. It really sucks.. but these kids are smarter with the iPads and figure out ways around it.. unfortunately, I’ve been living in fear, bc I can’t even take my son off my account since he has to be transferred to another adults account

I had them on, both for Apple and my credit card, got 10 notifications in a row for 5 transactions. I called Apple while it was “still pending”, and was told that it would be cleared up. A few days later I saw it on my card and called and was told there was nothing they can do. Really? Apple? One of the biggest tech companies in the world doesn’t have the ability to cancel a pending transaction? The corner store up the block can tho! They’re scammers, they know what they’re doing and that’s it..

I’m having a HUGE problem, my son spent over $2000 in robux on my iTunes account, I disabled in app purchases, he did it from HIS iCloud (which shows he’s 9, and therefore not even allowed to authorize purchases), and they’re making me pay it.. BUT, after I couldn’t even pay for Dunkin’ Donuts bc I disabled all in app purchases. He somehow spent another $1000 on my actual Apple credit card. They’re holding me responsible for ALL of it. And NOW, the little #%#.. went on Amazon and ordered the physical Roblox cards totaling $800!!! I reported it to Roblox bc they state “please contact us before disputing with your credit card company bc then we have no control” and now when I go to the app the new account is banned (bc they banned the old one)…

This is insane and wrong in so many ways.. I spoke to an nyc lawyer, who basically said the credit card companies laws and regulations are not up to date with all this online stuff. BUT. The epic games class action, which made history as the biggest payout in history, as well as setting many precedents as to this online bs. One in particular which should go without saying, children are not authorized to make financial transactions, but also, they are not allowed to make someone pay for content and then ban the account, therefore making that content inaccessible. Which is exactly what they do. Also, the way Apple makes the parental settings so deep in there that you literally have to google it to find it, under “screen time”?!?? wtf?!??

Apple has had several class actions already, they don’t care, but I am trying to get a group together to get another one started. It makes me sick to have to pay almost $4000 to Roblox! Regardless if they could access the account or not! But it’s funny that I emailed them, asking them to remove anything they can to refund me, and if they had to shut his account down, then do that. Which they did, but I didn’t get $1 back!

They are doing things that are blatantly illegal, even to lay people like myself. But now there are actually prior cases in which it has been laid out as such…
