Minus stars terrible upsetting experience caused me and my wife to miss our flight 11/26 on allegiant airlines from FLL to ATW.We checked our bag an hour before departure time headed to CLEAR as long term members many years Only to be treated unprofessionally and rudely..I checked in with clear without incident, my wife wasnt so lucky after Many tries with eyes, fingers finally came up and low and behold there were 2accounts Under her name. The 2or 3 representatives there were unable to correct and put us thru.We asked for manager and that only delayed us more going thru all the motions again low and be told there are 2 accounts Again . (So apparently we are paying twice for my wife Unknown to us. )We asked for help as we are 2seniors paying xtra for the CLEAR EXPERIENCE.But NO Help this manager then told us to wait on this line next to their lanes. We waited 3or 4 people ahead. Unknown to us it was TSA LINE Which clear personal placed us. Once upto front of the line they TOLD US we had to go to general boarding line.This was now about 30 minutes plus delay. We asked for help from clear mgt only to be told we are on camera and can be arrested by ****When walking to general boarding line another manager gave us phone number to call and complain which I did while trying to get thru general boarding lineOur daughter was already on plane calling us saying plane boarding ending 2 minutes.Despite asking for help Several people let us get ahead in line.

The Clear lines at many airports (****** is a huge problem) is longer than the precheck lines, you you effectively pay them for to wait longer. Don't waste your money!!! Sadly this service was wonderful for many years, but they've clearly cut their service back while adding more and more customers. What could go wrong??Clear

A CLEARME employee came up to me in line at ****************** in *******, ** on Sep 13Asked do I fly often. I said not really. He says I can skip the line by going to the kiosk. Said most people aren't aware of this. Proceeds to talk fast and hit answers on the screen "for me". Told me I wouldn't be charged. He asked for a credit card and told me it just for verification and I wouldn't be charged. I told him I didn't want to do it if it costs money. He said "No, and again it was for verification . A month later my card was charged $199.00Clear

I was approached by a gentleman who offered to help me clear security faster. I was told this would be a free trial. I was never notified that a membership fee would be billed to my account. Several weeks later $199 was billed to my account. I can't believe the airport allows these people to carry out their scandalous schemes on airport property. These people are scam artists eagerly awaiting their next victims. After reading all these complaints, I can't believe they have not been shut down yet. Why doesn't the government or the airport industry do something about it. I did contact them and demand a refund. Will update this post when/if I receive it. If I don't receive it, I will file a dispute with my cc company.Clear

My family and myself were approached by a gentleman as we were trying to find the appropriate entrance to go through the security checkpoint. The man that came up to us was very vague and did not answer questions we had until after we had already been signed up. We do not travel frequently so are not tricky familiar with the latest procedures. Flying is stressful enough and when an official approached us we had assumed this process was necessary. It was not until after we had been deceived and completed the sign up process that we were notified it is a free trial and we would be billed if we don't cancel. The person that has approached us was very pushy similar to a mall kiosk salesman and used our lack of knowledge against us. These people are scam artists and work off of unsuspecting and unknowing victims.Clear

I was told this would be free after someone grabbed me from the *** line. Two weeks later, $318 was taken from my account. I am very upset about this situation and cannot believe the airport allows these people to lie. I asked multiple times if I would be charged and the guy reassured me no LIAR! $318!!!!!!Clear

My wife is from another country and had to fly home. On her return trip she landed at *** after 30+ hours of ****************** from the *******. The ClearMe ***resentative took advantage of my wife's limited english and understanding of airport operations. She was convinced the *** was from the airlines and was there as customer service. She had no idea what was really going on, at least not until we got our bank statement and notice a $318 charge! These people are SCAMMERS! They are taking advantage of people who are coming in from exhaustive overseas flights and are just trying to get to their next connection.Clear
