What is it?

AWL Pearson is still at it!!! I have a charge for $95.70 from 2/10/15 that I didn't make. Ironically I'm a college student and so is my son, I did buy a book for him, but it was from the college book store, NOT AWL Pearson Education. I've called my Credit Card Co. and they refunded the charge, but how many have gone unnoticed? I'm glad my mother is so vigilant about looking over charges. Everyone should be.

I was charged $95.20 for some math text book, they say my daughter purchased which she did NOT. It appears they get hold of college students information and fraudulently bill for books NOT ordered. I am filing a fraudulent claim with my bank. This type of crime must stop.

Fraudulent charge of $60.50 on my Visa Mar. 3, 2015 from AWL Pearson EducationMYLAB.MASTERNJ. Called them @ 1-800-232-6556 for explanation, A man said I'll put you thru to correct department so I listened for 1 min. to beep-beep tone (was not a busy signal) nobody there!!!! Have a grandson in college (Ohio) but this credit card was never used to purchase books of any kind. Charges was refunded, hope this outfit never got paid ! Be aware of your Bank account & charge cards ! I had to replace credit card due to these THIEF'S. Hope someone prosecute's them !!

I NEVER PURCHASED ANY E-BOOKS FROM PEARSON EDUCATION FOR $95.20. WHAT I DID DO, WAS USE MY CREDIT CARD TO PAY FOR A COLLEGE COURSE LOG IN NUMBER FOR MY SON FOR $35.00. THIS IS WHERE THEY HAD TO OF GOTTEN MY INFORMATION THROUGH THE COLLEGE COMPUTERS AND CHARGE UNSUSPECTED VICTIMS.

Not sure how a NJ company could charge me for text books when I'm 53, have no kids or relatives in NJ and live across the continent in Sask, CANADA! Gotta love those scammers. It happened late at night; so, I can't get a hold of anyone. Locked my cards (oh ya, I got hit on 2 cards from different banks within 6 mins), and will deal with it in the morning.

I highly suspect it's from Peachpit.com book orders. I have a couple of those charges that escaped me from the past as well, and coincidentally ordered a physical and an eBook from this site for just about the amount on my statement.

I never bought a book. But, they charged $19.26 from my credit card, I am filing it as Fraud.

i got charged by AWL*PEARSON EDUCATION of $87.09, i never purchase anything from them. this is a fraud

AWL Pearson Education charged my account for $25.04. This is a company that many academic institutions use for students to obtain "required" reading materials. It is mid-semester and no new materials have been needed so why is AWL Pearson Education charging my account? There is no description of the product listed on my account summary. How does a consumer contact this company to relinquish this discrepancy?

I am doing some end-of-year record-keeping, and notice on my July VISA card a charge from Awl Pearson Education for $83.15. I am not a student. I am not a teacher. I earned my Master's degree in 1993, and there is no reason I would have purchased an education-related product. I will report this to VISA as fraudulent tomorrow.

AWL*PEARSON EDUCATION NJ has taken $76 from my credit card on Sep-7,2022 That is fraud.

AVM PEARSON EDUCATION charge was for a Peachtree e-publication that was preordered in late 2022 and available four months ago. Finally billed to my credit card. Very slow billing and under the PEARSON name, but my purchase as ordered.

Yes, it is Peachpit.com. I just ordered an ebook and this charge appeared under the AWL Pearson moniker.

Was going through my bank stmt and also saw this charge. I saw all the comments here and called my cc card company. I also called AWL Pearson and got someone on the phone in their billing department and as soon as I mentioned a charge I didn't recognize they ghosted me. No reply, no response even if when I called them a fraud. No response.

AWL*PEARSON EDUCATION has taken $151.52. from my BOA credit card. That is fraud.

Saw a charge of $117.70 pending on my credit card from AWL Pearson. When I clicked on the transaction on my banking app, a phone# was visible for them. I called and they kept requesting my information so they could look into the fraud allegation. Told them to reverse the charge immediately. They kept stonewalling me. I hung up and called my bank who cancelled my card and reversed the charges. I would like to know how Pearson got my cc info since I never use it. Why can’t banks block any transaction from them if there has been so many reports of fraud from them?

I got charged $78.74 by this AWL scam....I did not ever authorized this at any time to my Capital One card ...FRAD

I had AWL*Pearson Education MYLAB.MASTER NJ show up on my credit card on Tuesday, 10/18/16 and couldn't figure it out! I am a teacher so I thought that maybe I had signed up for an online program or something a year ago and they renewed it automatically??? I wasn't really sure. I started digging around on the internet and in my emails to try to figure it out. Then I talked to my college age son and he helped me remember that the week before I had helped him pay for online access to one of his courses. The charge was legitimate, but it took several days for it to appear on my statement. I was at the state fair when he called and asked for help paying for the online course so it had slipped my mind completely! I'm not defending all of the charges that are out there or speaking for anyone else, but the charge on my card was legitimate.

BTW, I 've been reviewing all of your comments below, funny thing is now is 2019, seems like they are still doing it boy....someone got do something to report this company.

I have also been "taken" by AWL. I was told that their system was updated in May and previous customers are being charged due to this mishap. This is BS and poor service from this consumer.

Same problem! My son needed access to a Biology program for school and charged $68.95 on my credit card for it. A week later we were charged another $68.95. I called and was told we had two accounts - one apparently opened in my name, I assume because the credit card was in my name. I called their Customer Service, however, and they were very nice, so I hope I will get the refund in a few days.

On my Discover bill there is a charge of $114.17 for a Pearson product I did not order. Coincidentally, I had just ordered an Instructor copy of a newly published text, at no cost, from Pearson who sells for ciscopress.com. That date was Feb 3 and the "AWL" transaction was Feb 4. I found the info on AWL*PEARSON EDUCATION CISCOPRESS NJ l01249954900176R on my bill and, of course, researched online for possible fraud and an erroneous charge. And I do want the charge removed. So I will contact Pearson, my rep, and Discover. Please help and thank you.

My wife purchased a required book for my sons vocational school course in electrical something or other. It was a legitimate charge in my case.

This is actually for a software program called MyMathLab that some colleges require for their math classes. You buy a loose leaf math book and if you don’t buy the one with the math lab included they ask you to buy it online. It’s how some professors give quizzes.

I was scanning past bank statements for payments my roommate was to have made to me for rent and loans made to her and I found a charge by Pearson for $119.55. I don't go to school and have no children or grandchildren that take online classes. I've never even heard of Pearson. I called my bank and they have looked it up and found numerous complains of fraud by Pearson and are refunding the money back to me. BUT...this needs to stop and I intend to pursue it further once I call Pearson and find out what the charge was for. I have a feeling this may have been fraudulent use of my card by my roommates lazy son and want to get details first. If it is, I will absolutely be prosecuting this vegan POS to the max. as well as Pearson for not verifying that it was authorized by me, which it wasn't.

I just got charged $200.79 from AWL*Pearson Education MYPEARSON.STRNJ which I did not initiate. Looks like they've been at this a while and still at in 2018!

10 February 23 I saw a pending posting of $72.61 from AWL Pearson. I have never purchased anything from them nor do I know anyone that would I’m the only one that uses my credit card so I would like a refund and also somebody to explain to me what happened.

I bought a book <<Into. to the Analysis of Algorithm>> from Addison-Wesley website. It escaped me as well when I looked at my credit statement. Later I noticed the publisher(what the AWL stands for) belongs to Pearson from the book's cover page.

Tried to charge me over $400, on a card I haven't used in years. New card time. Thanks'
