I usually stay away from such criticism.. but unfortunately @David1885 completely changed the route of this thread.
This thread is not about our experience with USCCA as a Company, it is about USCCA Online Community and how does it interact with you.
Bringing your bad or good experiences with USCCA to this thread is completely irrelevant.
Oh no’z, I broke another forum rule! I am desolate.
Are we reading the same thread he is talking about not being able to unsubscribe online not the USCCA online forum community and how hard it was to unsubscribe.
I was referring to unsubscribing from the USCCA member benefit that you get as a paying member ie. the self defense policy. He mentioned having difficulty unsubscribing, and since I have recently unsubscribed 2 accounts and lowered the coverage, I posted to say that I had not experienced that problem.
Ohh no, I read your post too. And I saw where you said you had no problems after just a phone call.
Likewise, I had no problems switching my card information when my old card expired.
I’m looking at what they said here….
I’m not entirely clear on what they’re wanting to do, if they’re trying to cancel membership or just no longer want that particular card stored?
I’m also not sure why a verbal call is impossible for them to do?
Worst case scenario, they can contact the card backer or their bank and have them block all transactions related to USCCA…. Or go nuclear and cancel the card.
A lot can happen in 10 minutes, as we all know and why we carry. Aside from that, glad your experience was positive, however not everyone can speak, hear, or has access to telecom services (yes, that’s reality, even in the USA not everyone can or has access to phone lines). There are many use cases which is why regulations on this matter exist but for some reason are not being followed, which puts us all at risk as members unable to manage our membership for one, but if the any jurisdiction decides to impose fines (which we end up paying for) or shuts the service down. Why would we not want to improve and be proactive…complacency is what got us in the mess of needing legal defense for wanting to protect ourselves.
Problem is, I didn’t want to leave. I wanted to improve. The original issue was surrounding Regulation E with the CFPB. USCCA doesn’t feel that is necessary, so I attempted to leave only to discover more non-compliance with State and Federal regulations. It’s not about complaining - it is about improving, that’s what dad’s do.
Understandable, but it was the UCCCA that brought us together as a community. If we do not address them (and maybe there is a better thread on this forum to do that), and they are doing something that could cost us more due to fines imposed on them, or risk of not being able to operate in various jurisdictions, will the community persist? As a community we owe it to ourselves and the Company (as “members”) to grow and improve.
