Cancelling HUDFORECLOSED.NET and AP9* Bargain Homes ( Bargain Network )
I’m posting this quickly for anyone out there in Internets land that might have gotten sucked into either of these offers.
I am pretty sure the HUDFORECLOSED.NET is that company advertised to death on 93x here in the Twin Cities where the girl is telling her friend how she bought a house for less than she pays per month in rent. AP9* is a scammy operation that apparently runs a whole network of sites (The Bargain Network) that you are often tricked into signing up for after making a purchase at a legitimate site who has some devious partnerships. There are some complaints on these companies here, here, and here.
I got sucked in last May when I was looking at buying a house and was enticed by their “Free Trial” which turned into $40 per month charges each. I got busy with the house buying process and also forgot to cancel the accounts once I was aware of the charges. I did try to cancel in Sept when first discovering the charges, but got the run around. I decided to try again on lunch today.
I don’t know if they are the same company, but they had separate means of cancelling their accounts.
How to cancel your HUDFORECLOSED.NET or HUDFORECLOSED.COM account :
- Go to HUDFORECLOSED.COM
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on “Cancel Account”. This is a popup so make sure you can see it. Otherwise, you can try to directly go to http://www.hudforeclosed.com/cancel.do
- Enter the email address and telephone number you signed up with and click “Cancel Membership”
- You should receive a confirmation screen and a confirmation email at the email address on file.
- Awesome, no more bills for this site however, you will have access to the site until the end of the billing cycle.
I also found a phone number buried in their site : 1-800-422-6021 that might help if the web cancellation doesn’t work or you don’t even remember signing up.

I did this over the phone. You will need to call 1800-333-1915. However, in their site FAQs, they also list 1-800-788-5648 as the number for cancelling. All they needed was my phone number I signed up with and my name. I wasn’t even on hold for very long.
Anywho, I hope that helps some people who may have gotten sucked into these things and want to get out. While googling for this same info, it seemed like a lot of people were trying, but couldn’t figure out how, which is why I am posting this. I wish FF had a site review type plugin to show feedback on domains you are at. Civic Duty Man – up up and away.

I very much enjoyed your site, you helped me get a cancelaion on that HUD Forclosed and I thank you for that.
Just wish there was some way to get my money back. OH well. Thanks for having a very informative and helpful site. I really needed it.
Thanks! I’m glad someone found it useful!
Thanks for the heads up. I was looking at possibly purchasing a property as an investment and had heard of people getting great deals on foreclosures so I thought I would look for one. It is so hard to tell who is legit and who isn’t.
