EXTREME ACAI BERRY

I just got a call from this company at work, for my boss... who is my mother-in-law. Not only is it a crock of crap about canceling (i used to be a telemarketer that offered a free trial with option to cancel, I know how hard it is) and no matter how many times you said NO or NOT INTERESTEd she didn't stop and got ruder and ruder as she went along. No way Jose!!!

Acai Berry Diet Scam rears it's ugly head!

ACAI BERRY DIET SCAM ALERT

Just when you thought it was safe to shop on the web, some internet scammers have found new ways to trick you with an innovative "bait and switch" scheme. I have a 20 year old daughter that likes to purchase products on the internet, but since I know there are a lot of scams on the internet, I always have to ask what sites she is using to make sure they are legitimate.

Here is an example of very sophisticated scam that was recently exposed: Scammers will build 15-20 websites all with different URL's, landing pages, terms of service, privacy policies with the same targeted keywords to attract new customers. But you can tell that they are the same organization by the same photos and sometimes the same verbage and calls to action they use. The reason they are creating so many websites is so they call fill up at least the first 10-20 paid Google Adwords positions and flush out the competition. They will most likely bid high on the same targeted keywords to lock themselves in those top positions.

At first glance it looks like there is a lot of friendly competition going on when you see different URL's and uniquely worded ads, but after you take a closer look, it is just one organization controlling the front two pages using the same targeted keywords. Here are some common tricks that internet scammers use on Google AdWords.

WHAT’S THEIR HOOK?

FREE diet pills with an exotic super fruit. $3.95 S & H. Why do they put S & H, because they need to collect your CC info. Fancy landing pages, celebrities, obvious benefits from super slim models. No clinical proof that acai can help you lose weight.

MISREPRESENTATION - They will set up an AdWords ad and landing page and review their own products and give poor ratings to some of their own landing pages just to try to look like legitimate third party is reviewing their site.

WHAT IS MISSING FROM ALL OF THEIR SITES?

Trust icons like Hacker Safe, McAfee Secure, BBBOnline, a physical address and phone number directly to the company instead of an independent calling center. Some of their sites have already been flagged by SiteAdvisor for misrepresentation and spamming, but since not everyone has a SiteAdvisor plugin for their browser, most people won't have a clue about these scams going on.

LESSONS LEARNED...

If you see something on the internet that looks too good to be true, it usually is. Always read the terms of service and privacy policies on the internet. If you really need to purchase a product or service on the internet, make sure you have access to the real company and not just to a call center. The physical address and phone number of the owner of the website should be on the "About Us" page or, better yet, on the home page. Always look for real trust icons, since there are a lot of fake trust icons out there as well. A real trust icon will show the real date that a site is tested and the address and other contact information will be revealed when you click on the icon.

Got suckered for $90

Well I bought the trial bottle of Extreme Acai Berry for $4. It did seem to help my high appetite levels a little bit. Could have been my imagination though (placebo affect?) But surprise! A couple weeks later, I receive a full bottle in the mail and I checked my bank statement and low and behold, a nice unexpected charge for $89.31 plus some fee of $.71. When I called to ask how to return the product they asked if I had read the terms and conditions of the trial offer. Of course I never saw any terms and conditions. I usally check for these things and never saw any indication I was setting myself up for further charges. I should have known better! Uugh. They did say they would send me another full bottle free of charge to make up for it. So I get 2 bottles for $90! Still a rediculous price for a product I have no idea what benefit it has for me and $90 I did not have.

Reported Fraud

I was looking at the "Extreme Acai Berry" website and was going to order it and put my info for purchase on it then after thinking about it I closed the window therefore did not click on any "continue, ok to pay, authorized and so on. The window did close without saving (so I thought) and of course it showed up in my bank account as a payment.

I did not authorize them to send it to me - the "Extreme Acai Berry @ 89.31.
I did however reported them to my bank that this was not ordered and they closed my current visa and I'm now waiting for the paper work from them to report them as "Fraud."

Thank you for this info. This is really an eye opener. If you have any other advise I would appreciate hearing it.

#4 - Lourdes - 09/10/2008 - 21:00

Pure Acai Berry

Yes, Extreme Acai IS a rip off, sleazy business. Also beware of it's sibling "Pure Acai Berry" which is the same rip-off tactics, they have a 'supposed' 14 and 30 days return policy, but good luck there. I am frustrated and filing fradulent charges with my credit card company, which is a hassle on my part....but I'm done trying to deal with them via phone and email. Looks like they have a 3rd sibling to beware of (I found while researching them all for crooked tactics), Acai Berry Supreme. Things that make you go HUH?

#5 - Gayle - 09/12/2008 - 18:59

Acaiberry

I also order free trail and no where did I see that they were going to charge me 89.31 now I can't get my money nor have I recieved the product......

#6 - Sheila - 09/15/2008 - 10:32

I tried to call to cancel my next full subscription, but no one picks up the phone. At first, this recording comes on, saying someone will be right w/me etc, and to stay on the line. I'm on the line waiting and listening to their music. Then the music stops playing and no one comes on the line, leaving me there waiting for nothing. So now, I am going through my bank to stop these people from furthur use of my credit card. I'm in the process of having to order a new credit card and cancelling the one that they have on file, so they can no longer put fraud charges on my card. I advice you to do the same. These guys are phony.

#7 - lisa - 09/15/2008 - 21:44

These people are disgustingly slick! I contacted my credit card company and disputed the charges as well as turned them into the Better Business Bureau in Florida. I also let the AcaiBerry Customer Rep. know he should be ashamed of himself for being part of such an unethical business. (He seemed unfazed by my comment, I guess he has heard this before.)
If you want to turn them into the BBB, use the name charged on your credit card company and the address they sent the supplement from.
Mine stated:
Fullfillment
4650 SW 51st St., Bay 711
8012855012
Davie FL 33314

I am sure it is only a matter of time before word gets out and they are no longer in business. But we do have recourses, be sure and dispute it with your credit card companies. AcaiBerry is required to file extra papers with explanation to every credit card that files a complaint. The money is reversed out of their accounts until the dispute is resolved.

Good Luck
Bobbie

Shame on them!!!

I never thought I would get suckered and am very careful to read small print. Surprise! I got suckered out of $90.00. I guess I was even lucky getting the product at all. Imagine $90.00 for 60 pills. Outrageous. How do they get up every morning knowing their job is to deceive people who are looking to make improvements in their health? I have never had problems ordering off the internet but I now have learned an invaluable lesson. Remember what your parents told you? Nothing is for free. Free 15 day trial my *****.

Acaiberry SCAM

It seems the internet continues to grow with leaps and bounds as a public forum for crooks and scam artists. The people of EXTREME ACAIBERRY will not be outdone in this regard. Like many honest and unsuspecting individuals, I too fell victim to this scam. I never saw anything on the website about the automatic billing after 14 days untill, as I was throwing away the packaging, I saw a very small piece of paper in the envelope stating this abhorant fact. I immeditaley called Nu-body to cancel my order. That was, as it were, on the fourteenth day. I made it very clear that I was not interested in the product, company or procedures. I told them not to bill my CC or send me anymore product. The women on the phone said fine, and gave me a CANCELATION number. When I got my next creditcard statement it showed me that I WAS BILLED $89.31 ANYWAY AND THEY NEVER SENT ANY PRODUCT either. I have tried to contact the company numerous times and have never been able to get through. (I suppose that they have record of the PH.#'s of people that they have scammed and then just refuse to answer those calls.) I have since had to dispute this FRAUDULENT activity through my CC company which, as many may know, is a time consuming royal pain in the butt. With all the other complaints similar to mine (and not just on this website) it seems to me that Nu-Body or whoever these unscrupulous individuals are should be brought into account via a class-action lawsuite.

#10 - TOM - 09/16/2008 - 15:57

I too saw the ad for a free trial of this product with only a $3.95 S&H charge. I DID NOT SEE ANY TERMS AND CONDITIONS STATING THAT IF I DIDN'T CANCEL IN 14 DAYS THEY WOULD SEND MORE AND CHARGE MY CARD!!! I was reading the Real Age webpage about the high antioxidant value of acai berries and on the same page, the small ad for the free sample appeared. I believed it to be reputable since I like Real Age. I paid my credit card bill without checking the charges for two months, then thankfully the credit card company called me to ask about the $89.31 charges. I immediately called the number the credit card company gave me to cancel but could not get a refund. What a terrible scam. DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!

#11 - Sharon - 09/17/2008 - 21:16

Extreme Acailberry

This product made me sick and when I called to cancel I was on hold for 3 hours and no one picked up. So I don't think you can cancel your future orders unless you cancel your credit card.

#12 - Julie - 09/19/2008 - 14:05

rip off scam sleazy

all the reviews you read are true. I spent an hour on the phone with these assholes, playing like their phone is not working, putting you on hold, acting stupid, waiting on you to give up. I got charged $89.31 for a free sample. They say if you don't send it back within 14 days of the billing date you will be charged, they make sure you get it after the 14 days. I ordered it on Aug 31, they shipped Spt 16th, too late they don't give you a chance to do it. I have a huge headache now must go.

#13 - donald king - 09/19/2008 - 17:18

extreme Acai Berry SCAM

I too was foolish enough to fall for the "free" sample of Extreme Acai Berry for $3.95 shipping. There was no information about the company on the site, no way to contact anyone, no way to order a catalog, or additional product should you want to later. This should have raised big flags to me, but I went ahead and ordered the sample anyway.

Imagine my surprise when I got a bottle of a similar product (not the same as the "trial" acai berry, look at your bottle), in the mail today. I called the bank first to ask if there was a new charge against my card from the people who did the "free" trial. The answer was "no", but there was a charge of $89.31 from a new company name, and the bank was already aware of this scam. They gave me a phone number to call and cancel my supposed "membership" in this club first, which I did. It was about an hour on hold, and a rude woman insisting I "had" agreed to joining the monthly drug club by signing up for the free trial. She finally gave me a cancellation number, (do not know if it's legit or not), and told me I would not be allowed to return the bottle I never requested.

So......called the bank back and they sent me the forms to file the fraud claim, cancelled my card, and said I shouldn't get my hopes up for getting my money back from the theft.

I am returning the bottle in the morning to what looks like a phoney return address, but feel like I need proof from the Post Office that I am not commiting any sort of fraud on this end by keeping something I didn't pay for.

Hope they get shut down quickly, and the thousands of people who got scammed will get their money back.

#14 - Joyce - 09/20/2008 - 01:20

Yup. I was suckered too, $89.31. Thought I wasn't the type to fall for internet scams? You don't have to be stupid to fall for this one. Wish I had seen this site before it happened. Had to dispute the charge with Visa after getting nowhere like everyone else. Learned a valuable lesson today. Thanks everyone for taking the time to share your experience.

#15 - Dena - 09/22/2008 - 16:43

president

EXTREMEACAIBERRY.COM IS A RIP OFF.

YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CANCEL YOUR ORDER AND THEY WILL TRY TO BILL YOUR CARD FOR FUTURE SHIPMENTS NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR CARD AND REPORT THIS SCAM TO YOUR BANK.

#16 - Chuck - 09/23/2008 - 11:20

I'm another one. Received my "trial" bottle, next month another bottle, next month another bottle, and found $89.30 on my credit card bill. After the second bottle, I called the company and was told they couldn't find me in their computor. After the third bottle, I called again and told them the story and that I was going to call my credit card company and dispute the charge. They told me to send the bottle back and they would refund my money withing 10 business days. We'll see. I did report them to my credit company.

#17 - elaine rubinstein - 09/23/2008 - 20:24

You all are right. This is a scam. They just want your 89.00. How in the world can they bill you for something you didn't authorize. The terms are placed in a location where you would never think about clicking. They are unconcerned and just think how many people they actually scam on a daily and monthly basis.

#18 - Lucy - 09/24/2008 - 10:54

Got caught too

Wish I had seen this site before I signed up for the free sample. I also was charged $91.09 for the full bottle. I called the phone number posted on the bank credit card charge and got a quick answer on the second time I called. First time they never answered, just left me on hold. I also was told I could not return the bottle I had just received nor get a refund. I cancelled immediately.

#19 - Lisa - 09/24/2008 - 17:15

STUPID Extreme Acai Berry!!!!

Like many of you, i fell for the free bottle with payment of ONLY shipping and handling...and again, like most of you never saw the terms and conditions. that is of course because it is down at the VERY bottom of the website that which i might add has NO other links on it besides the "continue" with your purchase button, and "Terms and privacy policy" at the bottom! Once again, like other folks out there I have been charged the 4$ and 90$. I just went up to my bank today to see what action I should take considering I made my purchase on the 9th of sept. and still have yet to recieve even my trial bottle, it is now the 24th of sept. I was assured that I would recieve another free shipment for my time. I feel like its too late though. I might as well go ahead and cancel my card...ugh... can we report this anywhere?

#20 - kayla - 09/24/2008 - 23:27

oh no

Why didn't I find these websites before I ordered these stupid pills? I was on hold for only about 5 minutes. I was told I could cancel and get 1/2 my money back on the pills, but could not return them. Stupid Facebook where I found this stupid advertisement! Grrr!

#21 - Kristine - 09/25/2008 - 09:17

When I called, they told me I was ignorant!

I too was scammed by this company. I just happened upon my charge of $89.31, when I made a deposit into my account and had a negative balance. I called my bank and they told me of this charge. I told them it was unauthorized. The bank cancelled my credit card and issued me a new one, while also giving me the phone # of the company who did this. In calling the company, I told them I did not authorize this past the "free sample" and that I wanted my money back. The woman on the phone asked me if I saw the terms of agreement to call and cancel in 14 days. I told her I didn't. She proceded to tell me "have you ever heard that ignorance doesn't excuse you from a contract?" I said are you calling me ignorant? She didn't know what to say. I asked to speak with a supervisor and was put on hold. Guess what...I was disconnected. I called back and spoke with a supervisor and complained. I was told they would listen to the tapes and the person would be fired if what I was saying was true. I said I don't need her to be fired, I just want my money back. No money back, no product, out $90.00, and I didn't even use the sample after the first day. Still haven't gone forward with my credit card to dispute the charges--I am figuring it will take more energy and stress than I am willing to give right now. But, I am PISSED big time!!!!

#22 - Allison - 09/25/2008 - 16:57

I just recieved my "free" 14-day trial bottle of the Acai Supreme product a few days ago. I was sooo confident that I finally found an all natural supplement that could assist with my weight loss. However after reading these reveiws I am absolutly horrified. I only wanted the free trial anyways so I canceled the same day that I recieved the product. So far I have seen NO results from use of this product and I only have 2 weeks to make weight for Air Force Basic Training. This sucks. I've never fallen for thes scams before but since I desperatly needed to lose the weight for basic I guess I became a little blind and totally let my guards down. I hope this company gets shut down ASAP. And to all you weight loss fanatics...DON'T DO IT!!! Diet and exercise are the key. SCREW YOU ACAI BERRY SUPREME!!!!!

#23 - Tawana - 09/27/2008 - 02:12

XoCai "Healthy Chocolate" network marketing scam

I just went to a network marketing meeting today about a product called XoCai. They promote it too be "healthy chocolate" due to the high anti-oxidant levels from(cocao)and the berry(acai). They claim it is going to help you loose weight and change your life due to the high levels of anti-oxidants! They show you a 13 minute presentation that goes into how "studies" have shown it's positive effects of patients with high blood pressure and weight loss! Yet, there is no valid "scientific" proof that this Xocai chocolate is anything but dark chocolate with acai in it! Oh yeah, they tell you that you can order a box of 100 chocolate squares and it's a 30 day supply....but, they don't mention that the box costs $110!!! $110 for a freaking box of chocolate!! Are you kidding me?? DO NOT FALL FOR THIS NETWORK MARKETING SCAM!! YES, IT IS A SCAM!! IF YOU WANT TO LOOSE WEIGHT..CUT DOWN YOUR CALORIES AND GET ON A TREADMILL FOLKS!

#24 - John - 09/27/2008 - 12:16

Thank you guys... I almost saved $90 because of all the reviews

These #$%#$@# acaiberry a#$@!^es dont care about peoples hard earned money... All they want to do is get your credit card information and give you some shit!!!
First of all this $#*% doesnt work and moreover when you try calling them to cancel, you have to wait for hours to get to a customer representative, It sucks. Waste of time & money...
I luckily read all the reviews after a few days during the free trial period and after calling those fuckheads couple of times, i finally cancelled the order so that the $90 billing wont recur on my account.

#25 - Frank - 09/29/2008 - 15:14

UGH

I cant believe I am such a sucker! I never order crap like this.

Not only will they not return my $$ or the product, I asked for a supervisor and got "someone" and he told me that I could not return the product nor would they ever!

I am going to report this to the Better Business Bureau for sure!

So frustrating isnt it!

#26 - Samantha - 10/01/2008 - 11:03

THEY ARE USING THE NAME OF OPRAH

I DID THE SAME THING COULD SOME BODY TELL US WHAT TO DO RIGHT AWAY FOR THEM NOT TO CHARGE THAT MONEY PLEASE I APRECIATED...THANK YOU!!! THEY ARE USING OPRAH'S NAME SO U CANT TRUST COMPLETLY.... PLEASE SOMEBUDY HELP!!!

#27 - MARIA - 10/02/2008 - 16:57

Lesson learned

Thankfully I searched for acai berry reviews BEFORE I ordered the free trial. I might suggest to all of you to go to wal-mart and pay the $8.95 for the greendot prepaid credit card.. I did after too many scammers kept pulling money from my account. I now sign up for an offer with my green dot card and if it turns out to be a legitimate offer, i change my payment method to my bank debit card. If I ever get myself in a situation like this, I can very easily cancel my green dot card and get another one.... It really is an easy way to safeguard your bank and credit card accounts...

#28 - Melissa - 10/03/2008 - 01:28

Thanks so much for the information about the extreme acai berry scam!!!

I am so happy that I saw your review for extreme acai berry. You just saved me $90. I signed up for the free trial but I also was mislead. It doesn\'t state anywhere that your credit card will be charged $90 after fourteen days. I was thinking of buying the product but once I learned about their scam I changed my mind. It also, doesn\'t state how much a month\'s supply costs. When I pointed out this to the customer service rep., he offered to extend my trial period. I declined for the above reasons. Thank you so much. Lisa S.

#29 - Lisa M Scali - 10/03/2008 - 18:47

Uh oh....

I seemed to have found this site too late. Sure, I looked into this product 1st, a little, but didn't Google down the list enough. I ordered "Acai Berry Supreme" for $5.95 S/H, & it appears that I should be receiving it in another day (according to my USPS tracking). But I am very confused, cause I also submitted details to order a similar product, named differently, for $3.95 S/H. Well, that was about 2 wks ago & I saw those minimal S/H charges as "pending" on my VISA card. Now only the $3.95 charge went thru, supposedly charged for Acai Berry Supreme (the OTHER one, which originally had the $5.95 charge), which leads me to believe this is all the same company & it is a scam. I haven't received anything yet, nor has my credit card been charged for more than the S/H ... yet. I tried to call & cancel, but this company doesn't take calls on the weekend, if at all. But what really irks me is that when I originally ordered the "free trial," there was NO MENTION of any auto-bill program. I purposely searched for these hidden details on the bottom of the page & even printed up the page with the order details. Yet now when I go back to that site (& similar others), there IS the mention of this auto-bill stuff. I'm now going to call my VISA company to see if I can disallow the charges even before they happen, but I'm afraid I will just have to cancel this acct & have to get a new #. Inconvenience...

#30 - Michele Sedler - 10/05/2008 - 00:19

Cancel your card!!

Silly me, I read the reviews AFTER I had purshased the free trial. I never buy things like this online, but with all the celebrity reviews, it seemed like a good deal at the time. I called the customer care line FIRST thing the next morning. I kept getting a recording that told me the service hours and days of the week, no matter what time I called at. I then called my bank and reported them, and had my card shut down and ordered a new one with a different number on it. That seemed to be the only solution that would work. DO NOT ORDER THIS FREE TRIAL

#31 - Danielle - 10/06/2008 - 08:53

THANK YOU SO MUCH

WOw...ya know, after all the PHen Phen crap years ago I decided to never use diet pills again and have always lost weight the good ol fashioned way, diet and exercise. But after quitting smoking I put on a some extra that I have really struggled to lose, and it's not as easy, with age, as it use to be either to lose weight. I came across Extreme Acai berry and thought hmmm..maybe I'll give it a try....UNTIL I GOT TO THIS WEBSITE! THank you soooo much! I can see now that it would have been a huge mistake to order this! But i did see the review on Lipovox. Is that a good one? More importantly, a safe one? What about for someone with low thyroid and taking Levoxyl for it?

#32 - M.C - 10/08/2008 - 14:23

Testamonial Scammer..

I found this woman or whoever it is promote Acai Berry by posting the following on yahoo answers about diets.

"I tried several different diet pills and workout plans after I gave birth to my second child. I struggled really bad with losing all the baby weight. One day I was watching Oprah and she had a show about weight loss. It was amazing. I ended up losing 44 lbs in 90 days. You can read about it on my blog. http://www.sarahsweightloss.info"

I went to that website and that was the only thing on there. The search window didn't even work! Talk about a scam in progress. Someone probably paid to have this person (that or the scammers are doing it themselves) repost the same answer on yahoo questions and answers to continue scamming people. I almost bought into it. I did my research before throwing away my money. Thank God.

#33 - Maryanna - 10/09/2008 - 00:31

I too was scammed, and called the 877 number to get a refund of the $90.00 charge, stating my dissatisfaction, was treated very rudely by the reprentative and then by her supervisor, I did cancel further shipments hopefully,these folks are so dirty even with the conf. number,I don't know if I can trust that.
I will report to BBB, suggesting DO NOT BUY exteme aciaberry, DO NOT call for the $3.95 scam. We need help!!!!

#34 - jeannie - 10/09/2008 - 17:13

Extreme Rip Off

Well I usually am really careful about buying things on the internet and like many others didn't see any terms and conditions to the free trial. Free my arse! I am a firm believer in what you put out you get back! I am going to cancel my card to stop these butholes taking any more money. I am currently going through divorce and am watching every penny. I wonder how these people sleep at night? What a pain!!!!!!!!!!! I am also going to report them and waste my time filling out paperwork for fraudlent activity on my card. Don't buy this product!!! Lesson learned!!!!!

#35 - Naomi - 10/09/2008 - 23:42

Purely BS

I went to the site to see if i wanted to buy this product, because i am 24 years old and have had 4 kids and thought ooh famous folks are using it it must be good. thank god i decided to look into the company/product. one of the sights even has a RachelRay clip where she's drinking the Acai berry juice talking about health benefits...funny thing is it said NOTHING about weight loss. It's horrible that people take advantage of hard working americans, as if gas prices and our current president isn't digging us in deep enough. these people are crooked. they should put their marketing skills to good use and help people. But then again if you think about the Law of 3...Kharma will get 3 times what they got everyone else.

#36 - jerica - 10/10/2008 - 02:37

I believe that Iam a victom of this scam also; i have been trying to reach them every day for a week since i received a 30 day supply of extreme AcaiBerry in the mail that I didnt order. Also there was money automated drawn from my account that i was not aware of until I happen to do a balance inquiry. I hope that these people are caught and prosecuted.

#37 - llali2006@yahoo.com - 10/11/2008 - 01:28

Thank you!!

I've been researching the acai berry and wanted to try it. THANK GOD I read this site before I ordered ANYTHING!

Guess I'll stick with plain ol' healthy eating instead of risking money and headaches with companies who CHEAT the public..

Good luck to all who you believed these @ssholes. I hope you get your money back and THEY get what they deserve!!

#38 - dena - 10/12/2008 - 07:05

I don't know what website you all went to...

On the website I saw for the free trial of Extreme Acai Berry, the fine print was on the same page where you enter your credit card info.. I saw it before I put in any of my info and decided to look around and see if I could get the product cheaper somewhere else. I guess none of you have ordered free trials before, honestly I haven't either, but I always read the fine print on the offer (and if there isn't one, I would be cautious and research before I buy it). Even magazines send you a free trial and then charge you for not calling to cancel your membership. They're not the first one's to do this so I don't see why so many people were surprised by getting the charges (beside the fact that it costs $90)...

#39 - Lisa - 10/12/2008 - 13:45

So Desperate

Well, I am/was so desperate to have something to jumpstart my weightloss(diabetic and tired all the time, too tired to get out and walk and I work 24/7) that I did the extreme acai berry thing. I x'd out of the original window when i saw the shipping was like $4.95. Then there was a pop-up that offered the shipping for $1. I said ok, because my prepaid mastercard had $1.50 on it. I was charged and got the product. Took it today for the first time and have been potty (#2) FOUR TIMES! LOL! Wondering if I'll lose the weight that way. I guess I'll keep using it, cause it sure is cleansing me, but I'm curious to see if they will try to charge the prepaid card.....will they send it to me even if it won't let it go through??? and then bill me??? Hmmm.. I guess we will see. Good luck everyone and to the person who said to use the greendot card....good way to go. I got mine at a Fred's dollar store and it's a mastercard, they also have the visa's too. That way...unless you load a BUNCH of money on it, no one can charge you. I only load it when I know I'm getting something that day. Thanks, Roxanne

#40 - Roxanne - 10/12/2008 - 17:06

OMG! I was scammed too because like the rest of you, I am a complete idiot! I SHOULD have read the fine print, which is on every "trial" offer! And that stupid telemarketer, even though he is just some kid, reading a script, working part time to make, what, 7 bucks an hour, didn't even know what he was talking about! Like, I am so glad I'm, like, not the only one oblivious to these tactics!

#41 - Marie! - 10/14/2008 - 00:30

Acai scams

I also placed my free trial order. I went to order from Acai berry Supreme and changed my mind, because it never staattted what the continuing fee would be. So I closed the page. I did not hit submit to athorize my order. But the charges appeared on my account as pending. So I sent an e-mail staating this and asking for my money back. The charges went away, but now I've recieved a 30 day supply and a bottle of Colon cleansing that I never ordered. When I called yesterday I got a machine saying they were closed. Today I call and it automatically hangs up.
If anyone has a different # for them, please let me kow.

#42 - Ma'Lynda - 10/14/2008 - 11:29

Phew~ Just in time!

I wish I had found this site before ordering. Thank goodness the end of my 14 trial period is 2 days away. I called the 877 number and was on hold for 24 minutes like the recording said in the beginning. It did take a few busy signals before I got connected though. The man on the other line was professional. He suggested that I try the bottle first and he'll extend the trial period another 2 weeks. I said I would rather cancel now. He went ahead with the cancellation and gave me a cancellation number. To be sure I don't get charged in the future, I also canceled my credit card.

#43 - Sean - 10/14/2008 - 14:35

Pissed off

Please contact the BBB regarding all complaints. They will continue to trick others unless enough complaints are made. Here is the real phone number for those who can not get through with the number listed on the bottle.1-877-859-1105 is the correct number.

#44 - Amanda - 10/15/2008 - 16:06

I fell for the FREE TRIAL scam and entered my credit card info. I received the free bottle and tried the pills but couldn't tell they did anything at all. Next thing I know there's a $89.31 charge on my credit card! I called my credit card company to ask about the charge which had the description "IP-30DAYSLIM", and they game me a phone number to call 877-361-8604. I called the number numerous times and was placed on hold forever. Finally someone answered and I told them I wanted to cancel and get a refund. She stated I had 14 days to call and cancel and it was past the time period. I asked to speak to a supervisor and a man named Owen came on the phone and gave me a cancellation number and told me he could stop the shipment and process a refund to my credit card and it should show up in 5-7 days on my credit card account. So we will see whether this happens or not. In the meantime, I filed a fraudulent charge complaint with my credit card company, and I also plan to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau as well.

#45 - Paula - 10/16/2008 - 14:00

my mom just got scammed

my mom has been trying to drop 15 lbs. FOR HER HEALTH. The trial was a meltaway tablet the 2nd bottle had no directions but she said it tasted bad. She didn't know why they sent her a different product so i googled it. This is the site that came up. My mom is a senior citizen. She has lost alot of weight and just wants to be more healthy. It makes me so mad they started telling her about the 14 day trial and that she should just stop complaining. She was charged and that's the way it is. It sounds like a 2 man operation. She feels helpless and started crying when I told her there's not much we can do other than report it to BBB and tell everyone we know to stay away from these scams and be more careful. I am outraged that these people are getting away with this and I think there should be some bigger grievence filed. I will pursue whatever action I can to shame these people.

#46 - Cat - 10/17/2008 - 00:34

Extreme Acai Berry

I also fell for the "trial." Less than a week after the trial came, I received the 60 pill bottle. Nothing was with the bottle stating that, or how much, I was being charged, and I had no address to inquire. I've tried numerous times to get a phone call through to the company, at the phone number on the bottle. Nothing about either the S & H charge or the $89.31 charge indicated any company name I could associate with the acai. I did call about PriceLimbo, not realizing it was the acai company, and the customer service man said he'd remove the charges and take me off the automatic list, but it was on the bill I received today, and the $89.31, from UT appeared for the first time as YOUR VIP FIT. They show the same phone number. When I called my Chase card I was told that another $89.31 charge has already appeared, listed this time as Search Vitamins. The same phone number is listed for the two charges on the bill (PriceLimbo.com and YOUR VIP FIT). I assume the Search Vitamins charge Chase told me about is for the same rip-off.

#47 - Georgia - 10/18/2008 - 02:45

Extreme Acai Berry

I tried to order this "free" 14 day trial and, at first, I didn't want to order it, but then when I proceeded to exit off the webpage, a box popped up insisting they will just charge me $1 for shipping. So I couldn't pass that up. I paid the $1, but I have got my product.

PLUS! My card has been charged for a utility bill that I haven't authorized for $250 for a company I don't have utilities with. I have been doing online shopping and bill paying for a year and haven't had a problem with fraud until I gave my card number to the extremeacaiberry.com...So my bank is sending me a new card with a new number...

This is a SCAM! I'm reporting them to the BBB, too.

#48 - Angela - 10/18/2008 - 14:04

Any comeback? Replies appreciated!

Hi Guys,

I was just wondering if there is any comeback from the scamming scumbag company if you just cancel your credit card?
The reason I ask is that I have 13 days left of my so called trial period, and have phoned the company twice so far, both times have been fobbed off as apparently my details aren't recognised on their system so affectively they can't cancel my subsription...I've now written to them stating I wish to cancel, I'm in the UK so the letter won't hit til a week and its costing me a fortune to keep ringing. I've spoken to my CC company who have told me cancelling my card makes no odds to the fact that I have a contract out with this company, until I contact them and cancel...I know damn well the letter won't do anything, and callin them is useless.....do I wait for the inevitable $90 to be taken out of my account before my CC do anything about it or do I cancel my card....if so, is there any comeback from Acaiberry?.....do they continue to chase you even when the card has been cancelled...PLEASE HELP with any similar situations, dunno whether to follow CC claims proceedings or risk getting bad credit ratings or/and being chased by this company?

Thanks x

#49 - Natalie - 10/18/2008 - 20:19

This is not a Scam!!! Works weel!

I've been using this product for awhile now. Almost done with my first full bottle. I've lost inches and bloat in my stomach and it suppresses my appetite. Also my skin is radiant. There's no hidden information, it' all right there for you to read. I dont get all the negative reviews, so far the product works and is worth the money.

#50 - Trysomethingonce - 10/19/2008 - 02:22

scam

I also fell for this. I guess because the product was talked about by Dr Oz and Oprah it was a reputible product. I tried calling all day on saturday to cancel my order and nobody ever answered the phone even tho they said their hours should have been. Now on Monday I've tried calling and their line is busy. If I cannot get through to them, I'm going to my bank and I'm cancelling my debit/credit card and telling the bank that this compay will be trying to take money out and they need to be reported for a unauthorized transaction.

#51 - dee - 10/20/2008 - 09:46

Painful Lesson

I just had to cancel my bank card to make sure this outfit doesn't get to my account again. I am definitely contacting the Better Business Bureau. I searched for the "gimmick" and couln't catch it my first time around. I never buy those trial offers because I never return them in time! I just revisited the website, and the terms are very well hidden. I feel fleeced!!!!!

#52 - Sheila - 10/20/2008 - 12:14

Extreme Acaci Berry

Not only can you not return the product but it is also impossable for you to call and cancel the order. The lines are always busy and then they keep you on hold for 20-30 minutes to tell you that its too late!!

#53 - Todd - 10/20/2008 - 17:52

The Brooklyn Bridge is for sale.

Hey, Trysomethingonce, I suspect you are an employee of the scammers. If not, I have an un-opened bottle I can sell to you cheap!

#54 - art - 10/20/2008 - 18:15

if you read the fine print

I understand that by ordering Extreme Acai Berry., I am agreeing to receive Extreme Acai Berry. for a 14-day trial period (days of availability for actual usage could be less depending on shipping time) beginning on date of order. $3.95 (non-refundable) for S&P. I understand that unless I cancel by calling 1-801-208-7490 within this 14-day period, beginning on the 15th day my credit card will automatically be charged $89.31 (Free Shipping) for a 31 day supply of Extreme Acai Berry. to be shipped at that time to my door. Thereafter, until and unless I cancel, my credit card will automatically be charged an additional $89.31 every 31 days for a new supply of Extreme Acai Berry.. I understand that I may cancel any future shipments Monday through Friday by calling 1-801-208-7490. Our hours of operation are from 8am to 5pm MST.I understand that this consumer transaction involves a negative option and that I may be liable for payment of future goods and services, under the terms of this agreement, if I fail to notify the supplier not to supply the goods or services described.

We do not accept returns on any products that have been shipped.

It's all right there.

#55 - if you read - 10/20/2008 - 19:13

Waiting

I ordered acai berry supreme 10/9 and still haven't received anything for their trial offer. I got scarred and tried to call to cancel the 877-361-8604 number. Hangs up. and can't get thru. I called my credit card and told them about it. So they are aware. my trial is up on10-24 and haven't received anything but can't reach anyone to cancel.

I wish i would have found this site sooner. My cc said that i am protected against these scams and they do call me if there is a question on my bill (they have called me before) and if they do try to charge me that the cc would call me.

If you ordered this product call your cc now and tell them about the scam!

#56 - Trica - 10/21/2008 - 11:47

home-maker

I have tried to call the 801-208-7485 customer service tel. I get a message as disconnected sometimes a busy dial tone.
This is such a big scam no even the company wants to hear from their customers, what a bad idea to have ordered it.

#57 - Sandra - 10/22/2008 - 15:39

cannot cancel

Have been trying to cancel for days using 3 different phone #. Still have not gotten off hold and now they have delivered $90.00 worth of acai berry and charged my card again. this company has no integerty

#58 - CELINE A OLSEN - 10/23/2008 - 09:10

Dirt bags

Well, Sad to say, I too fell for this stupid scam.The first time for me. I never saw the disclaimer and now any number I try to call is busy, There is no way to get through, I tried the 411 website and there is no company listing for the numbers, also, the address comes up as Subway restaurant.NICE!!!! Dumb*** me cannot remember if I used my bank card or a credit card and which credit card at that!! I am always so careful about this stuff and just slacked off this time not thinking this would happen. OMG!!! Im so pissed.

#59 - KatB - 10/23/2008 - 17:33

Looks like this company is turning a nice profit

This is a scam alright, and from all the review here, it appears to be very sucessful.

The only way to get out of this is to cancel your card. If the credit card company will not take the charge off of your bill. DUMP THEM TOO. They need you a lot more than you need them.

#60 - Ken - 10/24/2008 - 10:37

Rip off!!

I just found my visa was charged $89.31 all I asked for was the trial bottle and was to only pay for shipping and handling!! Anyone know where I can complain? I hope my CC company can reverse this. What a rip I have so many charges since I ordered the "Trial" bottle omg!!

#61 - Cheryl - 10/24/2008 - 10:41

To its all right here....
I would love to call and cancel all I get is a busy signal
not your normal busy signal but the kind where the # isnt working >-(

I have not recieved a thing its not 14 days and I got dinged $89.31 for what? I am soo mad grrrrrr
Got my CC card cancelled thanks God!

#62 - Cheryl - 10/24/2008 - 12:18

Pain in the A**

This is so unbelievable that someone can do this and get away with it. I just had to go to the bank and cancel my card because all the phone numbers they tell you to call...well no one will ever answer!!! This is just crazy. These people need to be reported.

#63 - Tara - 10/24/2008 - 13:17

Scam-Ripoff-Do not do this

I ordered this yesterday and no i did not read the fine print. Have tried to call three different numbers and no one answers or it hangs up. Called my debit card, cancelled and blocked any further charges. These people are scam artists...do not buy this product. I will call the better business bureau and report them.

#64 - Janice Baxley - 10/24/2008 - 13:38

Add another sucker to your list...they are the biggest scam!

I just got off the phone with the company your suppose to be able to call and cancel within 14 days. Like many of you, so not true. I received the free trial on day 13, started calling the number on the paper and only got a fast busy signal. I tried every day for a week, and then today I called my bank and cancelled my card and made sure they could not take any more money. The bank person tried to call three different numbers she had listed for the company and guess what...no getting through. As we are about to get off the phone, she decides to try one more time and we then get through. Now we sit with horribly loud music forever while waiting for someone to answer. She decided to jump off, due to how long it was taking and I stay on the phone. Finally someone answered. I told him everything and said I wanted to cancel and wanted my money back and he said no. He said you cannot have your money back becuase I did not call within the 14 days. I told him I tried to but theya re running a scam business and no one can get through. Not even my bank.

I am now calling the BBB and getting them involved. Be sure you do not ever buy any product from them....they sell many and if you do, report the fraud they are committing. THIS IS A HORRIBLE REPRESENTATION OF OUR WORLD!

#65 - Jennifer - 10/24/2008 - 14:11

Major Scam!!

I just bought the free trial bottle last saturday for $1 S&H. Unfortunately I didn't see this site before I purchased it. I was mainly interested in it's claims of helping to reduce cholesterol levels and improve energy. Boy am I a sucker! Normally I don't fall for scams like this. I thought it would be a good product since it was featured on Rachel Ray and Oprah. Since I found this site I have been trying to contact the company to cancel...of course no luck. I either get automatically hung up on or a bad number message, and I'm calling within their hours of operation. I have read all the reviews on here and noticed that there are several different contact numbers listed...:

1-801-208-7490
1-877-361-8604
1-801-208-7485
1-866-938-4832
1-877-350-8480

A couple of these numbers I got from different websites for extreme acaiberry. I also got the address of the company off of one of the websites and did a reverse address lookup and the address was listed for Subway!!

4650 SW 51st St. Suite 711
Davie, FL 33314

I am just going to cancel my credit card and hopefully that will be the end of it. I'm not having any luck getting in touch with them. I checked my card today and so far it just has the $1 charge on it. Lesson learned. I certainly don't advise anyone to purchase this product! I also think that someone should contact the celebrities that they are using to promote their scam and let them know about it. I'm sure they wouldn't want to be linked to this in any way!

#66 - Catherine - 10/24/2008 - 14:20

Here's How to Get Out of the Scam!!

I was finally able to get through, surprisingly the people on the other line were pleasant. I called the 1-801-208-7490 number again and I only had to wait about 5 Minutes to get someone. I spoke with a person named Krizel and she informed me that not only do they enroll people in Extreme Acaiberry monthly, but they also enroll people in PriceLimbo and Fit Factory. It's a package deal with the $1 special. I was able to cancel the acaiberry and Pricelimbo through Krizel on the phone, and she gave me the number for FitFactory to cancel with them. The number is 1-866-407-1022. I spoke with a person named O'Bryan (I'm guessing they are just using their last names) at Fit Factory. Luckily I called within the trial period to cancel, otherwise all the charges for enrolling with them would be placed on my card. For the Price limbo, the acaiberry company will send you an e-mail with a link that you have to click on in order to cancel with them. Also be sure to get your cancellation codes from all three companies. According to Krizel at acaiberry and O'Bryan at Fit Factory, those three companies are the only ones that you would be enrolled in if you placed an order. I hope this helps!

#67 - Catherine - 10/24/2008 - 14:50

cancelled today

for those of you that couldn't get through... try this number- 1-801-208-7485. I was told that everything was cancelled out and have only been billed (so far) for the shipping of the free trial. Keep you posted if they charge me anyway... :-[]

#68 - Jess - 10/24/2008 - 15:16

Eeegad!! What a rip off!!

Well, guess I get to join the club of "suckers" out there. We're all in good company. I found this ad on Facebook...should have known from there...and thought it looked like a good product. Rachael Ray is shown on the screen along with several other icons of credibility.

I have tried to call the number on the bottle and the number on the small piece of paper that accompanied the bottle shipped to me for "eight nine dollars and thirty one cents", and the numbers are do not work. They don't put the price in number form because they know that once you see the price, you will choke.

How do I get the automatic shipments to stop?

#69 - Kerri - 10/24/2008 - 15:41

OMMGG HELPPP

OMGOD PEOPLE HOW DO I CANCEL BEFORE MY FREE TRIAL IS OVER? I DIDNT VEN RECIEVE MY \"FREE TRIAL\" ANYWAYS, AND THE \"877\" NUMBER IS DISCONNECTED!!!! I ALSO TRIED THE OTHER NUMBER, THE 801..208...AND THAT ONE IS FOREVER BUSY! IS THERE ANYOTHER WAY TO CANCEL????? HELPPPP PLZZZ

#70 - JASMINE - 10/24/2008 - 16:00

I feel like an idiot!

I just now saw this site, and I an right there with everyone else! I fell for this bullshit hook, line, and sinker and I feel like an idiot! Also, I have tried calling every number here and the one listed on their site and not one of them has worked! How are you supposed to cancel the order if you cannot get in touch with anyone? I don't see how that can be legal?! Anyway, if anyone knows a good number for them please forward it to me so that I can get a hold of these thieves and cancel this order! Thanks!

#71 - Jennifer Sudduth - 10/24/2008 - 16:55

Extreme Acai Berry

The numbers to call to cancel change all the time. The one I was given when I ordered was disconnected. When I went to the site there was a different number, I called it and it was a car dealership. I would stay away from orderng this product!

#72 - Kira - 10/24/2008 - 18:51

VISA wont do a thing

The business at this site operates a negative marketing program for Acai Berry and HYDRO Extreme beauty cream (maybe more). The Terms and Conditions (small print) put you into automatic billing and will occur BEFORE your first Free Trial shipment. These T&C also let them transfer your contact info to whomever they please. In fact, you can be billed for product from an associate company. The contact phone numbers DO NOT connect, so you are relegated to sending a Registered Mail cancellation, while the billing continues. VISA and MasterCharge cannot help you as the T&C form a contract. You are stuck with the charges.
This company is a SCAM outfit for which we need stronger consumer protection. Cancelling a credit card is not equitable recourse.

#73 - Lynda Dandurand - 10/24/2008 - 19:12

NOT JUST scamming, but selling CC info as well!

Signed up for this a week ago, still no product. Saw on PayPal today that there was some charge on there to a "FIT FACTORY" out of Utah, for $29.95. Called them up asking who they were (they just answered as "customer service"). They gave me the run around for 20 MINUTES! ARGUING with me that I authorized this charge. So I ask them what is it for? THey tell me it's for online fitness training, and that I signed up for it when ordering AcaiBerry 500. I even double-checked their site, NO WHERE does it say ANYTHING about this. TOTAL SCAM. I had to cancel my PayPal business debit as well.

Still no Acai Berry. Guess the weight loss comes from stressing out, worrying how much will be charged on your card when you wake up in the morning!

Called the FLorida BBB after going back to the Acai Berry site to cancel after learning about them giving my info to this other co. (which is probably all the same people), looked up the #, doesn't work. Found a different number in their privacy statement, didn't work.

Still don't know why they're on MST if they're in FLA??????

SCAM! These people should have criminal charges brought against them!

The only people on here saying it's authentic and such are probably those same people!

#74 - SuperPissed - 10/24/2008 - 19:35

Really Scared Now!!!

I just ordered this on Friday, October 17, 2008 at about 10am. They said all orders placed before 1PM EST will be shipped the same day. No shipping on Sat-Sun. I was given an estimated shipping arrival time of Oct 22nd. It is Oct 24th and I have not received anything in the mail. I called the 800# and they are closed and won't be open until Monday.

I want to cancel. They can keep the $5.95 for S&H and the pills. I do not want to be charged for something I'm not sure will work in 14 days as the body won't have time to adjust.

I think it's really sad that they have screwed so many people over. My bank does stop payments on debits for up to a year so I should be able to ward off being charged the initial time since I have their info from the S&H charge.

If I don't get someone on Monday then I will call my bank and block them. They've already lied about when I'd receive the shipment. Secondly, I've received only one email from them that the order was processed, no shipped email. So, there is fishiness already that makes me believe this is all a scam.

I hope more people read this site before purchasing. The only difference in the site I used from seemingly everyone else is that my S&H charge was more and the trial is for 30-Days and not 14-Days.

But, someone listed the site I used "Acai Berry Review" and another person read which links were ONLY available on that site which I found to be weird as well.

You don't have to worry about me doing anymore free trials. This is craziness. Lesson learned.

#75 - Nikki - 10/24/2008 - 20:52

Another Victim

We are also victims of this scam. What burns me most is Rachal Ray was used to promote it in the ad. I wonder if they really had permission to use her likeness. I will be contacting the Attorney Generals office in FL, Food Network and Rachal Rays Company. Care to join me? The BBB is a good idea also. Thanks to all who suggested that.

#76 - Stephen G. Glinane - 10/24/2008 - 23:30

Extrene Acai Berry free trial

I ordered the freet trial on 10/22 it arrived 10/23. I've been trying to cancel this using the number given...which is busy or does not go through. I've been trying ever 1/2 hour for 2 days. Finally I got a message that the number is changed and to get the new number I'll be charged $5. I can get it free using another number, but when I give the company name...I don't get the corret number, some kind of a credit company. Anyway, this is the week end and in order to get rid of this charge I cancelling the credit card number on Monday........

I so embarrassed!!

Yes, I am another who got scammed! If you do not call them within 14 days of ordering, they gotcha!! If you believe you will get your "free" sample during the trial period, think again. They mail out the "free" sample and the first subscription bottle at the same time, neither to arrive within the 14 day trial period. Does anyone know of a good hacker who can take their website down with a nasty virus??

#78 - Downtown - 10/25/2008 - 10:05

I too have been scammed by extreme acai. never thought it would happen to me! got 2 different phone messages when i tried to call and cancel. after reading other reviews, i called my credit card co. it was explained if i report my card lost or stolen my current benefits, including travel reward points, will remain the same. but i will receive a new cc card w/ a new number. also be sure to dispute the charges. even if your case is not successful, enough disputes will eventually put these slimeballs out of 'business'.

#79 - Andy - 10/25/2008 - 10:58

Impossible to cancel

I tried this deal as part of a product review for a survey site. The site DOES inform you that you will be billed if you don't cancel within 14 days, however, the phone number they give you to call DOES NOT WORK! I tried calling on Day 11 and Day 12 to cancel, both days the number was busy (HELLO? A toll free number that's ALWAYS busy?! I knew something was up). On day 13, I called and was told my call could not be completed as dialed, so I called my CC company and told them the situation. They agreed to put a cancellation date starting the day I first tried to call the company, and to stop further charges since I could not cancel the product myself. THANK GOD!

Acai Pure, Extreme Acai Berry

I fell for 2 of these frauds from the same top level website using two different credit cards. This was from the top level website acaitop3.com. The two companies pulling different but similar frauds were AcaiPure and Extreme Acai Berry. My story is similar to the other Acai complaints on this website. My cards were with 2 different banks: BofA, and American Express (AMEX). BofA is unsympathetic and is making me complain in writing. AMEX immediately handled my complaint by message and phone. I asked both banks not to accept any more charges from the merchant. In both cases I complained to the merchant by phone and email, and in one case their web site. I filed a fraud claim with the FBI. With AMEX, the merchant made another charge 8 days after receiving AMEX's inquiry. They escalated my complaint to FRAUD, and are issuing a new card.
To include me in the class action suit email:

Gotdamn Shame

I too, like the rest of you guys, have been scammed. I ordered this shit Friday 10/24/08, and today is 10/26/08. I am glad I ran across this site. I just called my bank and cancelled my credit card. Before this shit can even go down. The Acai Berry trial was $5.95. I changed my mind, but when i tried to exit the screen, a box popped up and said "we'll give you shipping and handling for only a $1.00" I'm like a "a dollar?!" so of course, my dumb ass felt like I couldn't pass it up! And i ordered this colon cleanser stuff from this other site, now I'm starting to think they might be under the same scamming thing. I called my bank, explained the scam to them. They have marked my card damaged. I believe the only way to gt out of this is too cancel your credit card. So I canceled mine. I'm not fucked up about the $7.00 shipping and handling charge they can have that. But I'll be damnned if I let a motherfucker deduct $90.91 outta my account without my permission. I said I'm fina nip this in the bud now. After reading these reviews, after hearing about the unanswered calls, I didn't even try calling these assholes. I just called my bank and shut the card off.

#83 - Tiffany - 10/26/2008 - 14:27

Me too!

Another sad story! I received my trial bottle late in day on 10/25- now have less than 4 full days to try it and then cancel if needed, prior to them charging my credit card. I decided I should cancel this morning since I have also read all of the preceding entries. The line is contantly busy or I receive a message that the call cannot be completed as dialed and to try again. I finally called the operator to check the line, who referred me to Integra Telecom, 866-419-4683, the company that apparently is responsible for the toll-free number assigned to the scam artists! A rep there told me they have been having "problems" with the company (Online Health) assigned to 877-350-8480. When I probed a bit, it seems these are "business" problems vs. technology problems. The rep told me the company has so many people trying to reach them that it is bumping other calls. I therefore called my credit card company to see what can be done in advance of my card being charged and me not being able to reach them. They told me they will add a note to my account so if my card is charged in the interim, they (the CC company) will do follow-up with the scammers..good luck to all of them!

#84 - Janis - 10/27/2008 - 15:05

YES...THE COMPANY IS A SCAM!!!

I did read the "fine print". I'm still within the "14 day cancelation period" but CAN NOT get a hold of the company.

I've called aleast 50 times (not exzagerating)and I can't get through. I've tried: 877-350-8480, 801-208-7485, 877-350-8515, 877-859-1105, 877-361-8604, and 801-208-7490.

I haven't received the "trail" yet but my CC has been charged. I've contacted my CC company, cancelled my CC, disputed the charge and started a fraud investigation.

Even if you "read the fine print" you can't get through to the company to cancel because they don't or won't answer their phones...note there are MANY phone numbers that are going unanswered.

#85 - Laurel - 10/27/2008 - 16:33

#'s to call

Hey all,
So I have spent all day trying to "cancel" my order. Thank God for redial. Anyhow, I called a ton of #'s and finally got to someone at this #: 877 350 8480. HOWEVER, I had to call like 15 times until I got through. ALso, I was on hold for about 20 minutes. Don't give up if you are on hold. Just stay on. if that number doesnt work try these #'s. I didn't have to sue these numbers because I did eventually get through with the other, but here they are:

801-208-7490
877-859-1109

GOOD LUCK

P.S. Even if you do cancel, make sure to get the confirmation # and I would also cancel your credit card and get a new one.

#86 - somebody - 10/27/2008 - 17:00

this is crap!

So, I'm one to check everything before buying and rarely buy anything online... but that $1 S&H deal was something that got me curious and got it... STUPID move!! I've been trying to call to cancel but have gotten no where. I've tried various number (877-350-8480, 877-361-8604, 801-208-7490, 801-208-7485...) and NOTHING WORKS!!! I'm either on-hold forever, it's disconnected, or there's a constant busy signal. there's no available email or other contact info to cancel my order. I've been trying to cancel for about a week now... still have gotten nowhere!!! I've cancelled the card number I gave them and reported them to my bank... hopefully it ends it!!! (oh, yeah... I haven't even gotten the product!!)

#87 - Lindsay - 10/27/2008 - 17:31

i read the fine print..

i saw the fine print literally right after i submitted the order...i've been on the phone all day trying to get a hold of them and it's impossible. as i write this i am on hold with my bank cancelling my credit card. what a pain!!!

#88 - Laura - 10/27/2008 - 17:45

Someone Needs To Stop Them

Major, major rip off, and should be an embarrassment to the vitamin industry. I lost $89.00, and can't return product, or get hold of anyone on their phone! CANCEL your credit card, that's all you can do! I wish that company was closer, I'd visit them in person. Companies like this give Internet ordering a very bad name.

#89 - Scott - 10/28/2008 - 00:28

Rip off! 2

Telephone number does not work for you to cancel order and had the same problem as Cheryl #51:I just found my visa was charged $89.31 all I asked for was the trial bottle and was to only pay for shipping and handling!! Anyone know where I can complain? I hope my CC company can reverse this. What a rip I have so many charges since I ordered the "Trial" bottle omg!!

#90 - Brigido Fonts - 10/28/2008 - 00:46

Know your credit rights

#50 is absolutely right. If you have a credit card company that won't work with you on handling bad-faith merchants, DUMP THE CREDIT CARD. Who ever the merchant is, whether it's online, local or unknown to me, I make contact the best I can. If I can't resolve my issue, can't find a contact method, I call the credit card company. But I don't EVER call the credit card company to say "what should I do?" I call to tell them 1) what I have done and 2) what I am going to do. Then I follow it up with a letter.

#91 - Melinda - 10/28/2008 - 00:58

Extreme Acaiberry

This is a scam I read the Terms but thought okay it will be here in 4 to 6 days. I still have time to try it and cancel if I don't want it. Well it is 12 Days and still no product. I decided to cancel and while I was on hold I found this site. Well I got it cancelled it took me several calls and hang ups and 25 min on hold but, finally got through. Not only did I get charged for the product I got charged for a internet service called fit factory for $29.00. I called them and cancelled too and the lady said that when you get the extreme Acaiberry u are signed up for it to automatically. I didn't see it anywhere on my terms but, it could have been there. So, I am cancelling my credit card and reporting them to the bbb. Beware!!!

#92 - Terri - 10/28/2008 - 10:38

I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!!

I like a lot of you tried the acai berry diet and I got ripped off!!! Money I was waiting on to pay certain bills was gone. I didnt know what to do I found this site the day I was trying to contact them and guess what on hold with stupid music!!!! No one answers and Im stuck out of luck with no money wish I checked up on it before ordering I guess Im the sucker.
In conclusion do no order ACAI BERRY IT IS A RIP OFF!!!!

#93 - Shandrell - 10/28/2008 - 10:59

Burns

Yep they got me too. Does anyone have a viable physical address for this company? The 877 number on my bank statement was listed as being in Utah.

I would truly love to pay them a visit in person with the proper authorities in tow... or not.

#94 - Robert - 10/28/2008 - 11:20

ALWAYS RESEARCH BEFORE YOU ORDER

i WISH i had read all these review before I got suckered into this free trial of acai berry diet pills. today is my 14th day to cancel before they start charging me $90 a month, and I've been trying to call this stupid 877 number for 3 days. Finally I just called my bank & got a supervisor on the phone & explained the situation & said I want to head this off at the pass & do something BEFORE they can start ripping me off. Basically, I'm having to cancel my card & start all over with a new one...

#95 - Jennifer - 10/28/2008 - 12:28

I also got scammed by this! i just realized today that it was a scam. i found another website that explained the scam, and i immeadiatly called my dad. he gave me the number to a guy who works at my bank and i told him about all this, he cancelled my debit card as soon as i hung up the phone. so now i have to get a whole new debit card. i hope i did not get billed for the 89 bucks, but if so i'm sure i can get it reversed. I CANT BELIEVE I FELL FOR THIS!

#96 - Colleen Doran - 10/28/2008 - 12:28

Extreme Acai Scam and they sell your info!

Extreme Acai Berry is so hard to contact! I\'m not out of my 14 days yet, and after receiving the product just yesterday (after order placement on the 15th, shipped on the 22nd, received on the 27th!) I was receiving so many 1 866-379-2003 number phone calls. I finally answer about 8 pm and it was a company saying I had made a purchase from another site and they gave them my info as a preferred customer. They said they\'d be sending me a package in the mail with free gas vouchers and a membership of discounts and coupons.

I told them I had no interest in such things and didn\'t appreciate someone giving out my information without my approval. It does NOT state in the Terms that they give out your info. This company, \"membership services\" they call themselves, says they work for several companies and that if I don\'t cancel THEIR subscription that I\'ll receive in 2 wks, I\'ll be charged 19.95 a month. The lady was rude and pushy and sent me to their verification department to a guy who wanted my date of birth. When I said it wasn\'t necessary bc I was canceling and wanted a customer service number, he rudely gave me the number and hung up.

I called this number (1800-475-1942) and was told I wasn\'t in the system and had to wait 3-5 days before I could cancel with them. When I found this site, I called them again and this time the lady asked for my debit card number in order to see which company referred me to them!! Insane!

Then I called the number on the free trial bottle for Fullfillment in Davie, Fl and of course we all know what that was. On hold after an automated message or disconnected. Finally I just called my bank and made them aware of what was going on and that I was uncomfortable with the situation and had my account closed and reopened under a new account.

I haven\'t been charged 89.00 yet, bc my trial is technical not over until tomorrow. But I\'m glad I caught wind of this when I did! Had that lady not called me for her company late last night, I would\'ve been caught up in a mess! The number for the acai supp I called was 1801-208-7485.

#97 - A. - 10/28/2008 - 13:46

Telephone numbers don't work anymore!

Now you can't even get through to anybody... the telephone numbers are disconnected, or it rings for a while then you get a dial tone.

#98 - Melanie - 10/28/2008 - 14:38

It is OUTRAGEOUS!!!!

Here is my suggestions if you get taken by these bozos:

(1) go on line and email a complaint to your state attorney general;

(2) email a complaint to generalmanager@domainsbyproxy.com. They hold the "domain name" for this crew and tell them what you think of this operation. Demand a refund from them.

3. Complain to the fulfillent center that sent you this crud by writing them at 4650 SW 51st St Bay 711, Davie Fl. 33314. And tell them you'll hold them responsible if they don't cancel. Then write a letter to your state atty general about the fulfillment center.

#99 - T - 10/28/2008 - 14:41

Extreme AcaiBerry

I, too, was caught up in the AcaiBerry scam. I simply looked at the product on line and was inclined to order the trial package. I changed my mind and thought that was that.
Much to my surprise, the sample came in the mail a few days ago.
I had a WHOLE lot of trouble getting through on the number they provided on the enclosed sheet: 1-877-350-8480 (actually you don't need to dial the "1" anymore and oddly enough that's when I got through). The customer service rep was very nice (and very young-sounding). I got a cancellation # from her and an e-mail address: Customerservice@nubodi.com (hope it works!) and a mailing address: Nubodi, 4650 SW 51st St., Davie, FL 33314 (hope I don't have to use it. My credit card company (Citibank) said there is nothing they can do unless or until a charge appears and I can dispute it. I'll wait and see what happens. I too, wish I had seen this forum before I even looked at the product online.

NO ANSWER

I also just like everyone else on this site bought the 14 day trial offer online. I read the terms & conditions a few days later and realized they would charge my card if I didn't cancel within 14 days. So about 5 days after ordering the product I call the number on the terms and conditions to cancel and the number wouldn't work. Sometimes it would say all lines were busy...other times an operator would come on and say there going to connect you than disconnect you...and other times the number didn't work at all! I got freaked, I realized I was being scammed so I contacted my creditcard company which tried to call the number and also realized it was disconnect. I ended up getting charged $90.00 and contacted my credit card company which than reimbursed me and sent the charge bank to their bank. I now need to change my credit card account just to get these charges out of my life...I can't even get ahold of them!!!! WHAT A SCAM! I've took the product for only a day I bet that a bunch a bull too!!!

#101 - Lili - 10/28/2008 - 17:31

Shady Deal

Since this sounded too good to be true, I made sure I read all the terms. I knew that if I didnt cancel by the 14th day, my card would be charged. I didnt receive my trial after 11 days, so I started calling. Could never get anyone to answer. The first couple of times that I tried, I thought someone would actually pick up but didnt. Then I couldnt get the call to go through at all so I went to my bank and cancelled my card before they could get the $90 out of me. I finally got my trial today and I havent taken any yet but after seeing how everyone is having the same experience that I have had, I'm glad I cancelled my card. If this pills actually work for me, I will buy them on eBay!

#102 - Gina - 10/28/2008 - 21:20

kateewoo

I too succumbed to the scam. When I tried to call to cancel, I heard a message, \"All circuits are busy. Call again at another time\". I did call again. And Again, And Again.
I realized, too late it is all a fraud. I called my credit card company to report the fraud.
Low and behold, two days after I received the \"miracle supplements\" my credit card had been charged. This scam of a ghost company needs prompt anti-fraud punishment!
The charge to me was removed. I cancelled the credit card so these scam artists cannot get any more $$ from me. Hopefully readers will pay attention to warnings and not make the same mistakes.

#103 - Kathi Woods - 10/28/2008 - 22:27

I GOT THEM BEFORE THEY GOT ME!! AS I CAN SEE I AM A LUCKY ONE!

SO I WAS ONLINE AND CLICKED ON THEIR AD...I READ IT AND DECIDED AGAINST IT, SO I CLICKED TO EXIT AND THEY OFFERED ME A TRIAL BOTTLE FOR 1.00 I AGRRED, AND GAVE THEM MY CHECKCARD NUMBER...I GOT THE BOTTLE 3 DAYS AGO...MY 14TH DAY IS TODAY, I CALLED ALL DAY TO CANCEL AND THE LINE WAS BUSY ALL DAY. SO I CALLED MY BANK AND CANCELLED MY CARD JUST TO BE SAFE AND SURE ENOUGH THEY TRIED TO CHARGE ME 90.00 THREE TIMES TODAY BUT MY ACCOUNT IS SET UP TO DECLINE CHARGES IF I DONT HAVE THE FUNDS IN MY CHECKING ACCOUNT AND I DIDNT...SO THE CHARGE WAS DECLINED, I CANCELLED THE CARD ANYWAY...SO I GOT A 60 PILL BOTTLE FOR A BUCK, THEY ARE REALLY DECEITFUL IN THEIR ADVERTISING AND I HAVE NOTICED NO DIFFERENCE WHAT SO EVER SINCE USING THE PRODUCT! DO NOT ORDER THIS PRODUCT!!!!!

#104 - ALLISON - 10/29/2008 - 01:08

I signed up for a free trial of the Extreme Acai Berry . Still have not recieved free trial but did see the NEXT charge for 88.31 called bank put a fraud alert on charge. Have been looking up about this CO and did see what was going on. All the #'s I could find were answered by same machine then put you on hold (left on hold for 3hrs just to see if anyone would answer) or just hung up. Here are #'s
877-350-8514 877-350-8480 877-350-8515 866-407-1022
877-859-1069 801-208-7485
Did more research and went to FBI site filed a complaint. The BBB site and filed complaint did more research and found this # 877-859-1105 and did talk to person said I had 14 days etc to cancel after recieveing trial offer said I had not recieved trial offer. They said it was mailed etc and Told them I wanted all further charges stopped and was told they would cancel my so-called subscription and I could mail the unused bottle back and get a refund if I called them back with a tracking #. HA HA If I recieve the bottle I will mail back with #. In the mean time I hope my bank can get the money back that was my car insurance money UGH! Also when 88.31 charge did clear it was actually 91.09 said they would only reinburst 88.31.

I got them before they got me...Thank goodness!

I too signed up for the trial offer for the Extreme Acai Berry & after I ordered when I went back to the site what do I see? A terms & conditions link at the very bottom, almost impossible to find unless you scroll all the way down. >-(

So right away I logged on to my bank website & saw I was charged the normal $3.95 for the trial & I waited 2 days and called & cancelled my bank card. That is the ONLY way to stop these people from charging you. ;-)

#107 - Jennifer - 10/29/2008 - 15:37

CALL THEM BEFORE ITS TOO LATE

I ALSO ordered the free trial over a week ago and thanks to my time off work i was able to wonder why i had not received it as fast as they said i would. Not to mention i noticed a random charge of $29.95 from FIT FACTORY on my CC.. which i never signed up for nor have i made any other purchases in the last month! I took me a while to get the right numbers to call because the ones on my CC statement did not work. SO apparently when you sign up for this free acai berry trial you are automatically entered into this fit program and CHARGED thirty bucks! which is a bunch of BS. I talked to them yesterday demanding a refund. they said they would and gave me a confirmation number-- I AM WAITING FOR IT. As for the ACAI BERRY PEOPLE, i also called yesterday saying that i had not received anything. Guy told me i should be getting it this week. He also told me that tomorrow (today) would be the last day of the trial. I was confused because it had only been 8 or 9 days since i ordered it. He offered to extend my trial period til the 7th, i said okay. I receive the pills today and read the little piece of paper it comes with that stated i would be charged an additional $89.31 unless i canceled within the 14-day period... WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN TODAY HAD I NOT CALLED YESTERDAY. After reading what a big scam this is, I immediately called to cancel right before i wrote this. I called, lady asks for my zip code and name, and then immediately asks if i am calling to cancel.. of course i say YES and she gives me c# and that's it.. I WAS NOT SURPRISED THAT SHE WAS VERY STRAIGHT TO THE POINT.. THERE MUST BE SOOO MANY PEOPLE CALLING TO CANCEL. THEY'RE GETTING CAUGHT UP! I hope most of the people ordering this "free" acai berry trial get to these reviews before they get charged!!
these are the numbers that worked for me:
FIT FACTORY 866-407-1022
ACAI BERRY SCAMMERS 877-350-8480

#108 - Erica - 10/29/2008 - 20:23

Too much trouble

I ordered the free sample about two weeks ago, and just got it today. Fortunately, I did read the terms so I knew that unless I cancelled within 14 days, I would be charged the 89.31 every month. The only problem is, I called for about a week straight, trying at least fifteen times a day. The number had all sorts of problems. First, I would call and a recording would come on, it would ring once for a representative, and then hand up on me. Another situation: "All circuits are busy." That's not the end of it. There were also times when a busy signal would simply come on. I cancelled my credit card yesterday, but decided to give it one last shot. Shockingly, I got through. I waited on hold for 25 minutes when finally an extremely rude gentleman answered and didn't even give me a chance to explain how pissed off I was...I guess they hear it too often. He said he cancelled it and gave me a confirmation number but it's probably bull shit along with the rest of their scam.

My biggest problem is that they wait until AFTER the 14 days to send the product out to you. How are you even supposed to determine if you want more if you don't get an actual trial? Ridiculous.

Today I magically received my bottle in the mail. I'm going to try it, but I will never again be stupid enough to order these things.

#109 - Katie - 10/29/2008 - 22:09

They got me too

Yeah im a poor college student struggling with my weight so when I saw the 3.95 free trial i ordered it right away. I checked the terms after.. dumb . i know,
Anyway they stated that i was going to be charged 89 dollars per month and also subcribed to fit factor and pricelimbo which will all charge me. I was horrified so I immideatly had my card number cancelled. i will be getting a new card . does this stop them or should i cancel bank account completly???? NEED HELP ... I cant afford to have them take money out of my account I need to pay my rent :-(

#110 - emily - 10/30/2008 - 16:05

got me for even more then pills

I never got the pills ..they charged me for the shipping but even worse I have financed gas at two shells in miami florida (im in sc) - and someone was having a HAY day with my credit card in walgreens in puerto rico ...$289. dollars worth ...mine was a visa DEBIT card and your not covered when u use those . So I am just screwed and I found out something was wrong when I had 5 kids in walmart buying here halloween costumes and there was no money left in the bank. I left with heart broken kids and a feeling of being a total IDIOT

#111 - shannon - 10/30/2008 - 23:13

what a scam

I also did not notice the BIG print lol about the 14 days.
I went to work and notice that i was charge 89.51 for "MY VIP FIT" I was like what the heck is this? So when I realize what it was I did some looking into it. I tryed the phone # that was on the web site and no luck. Mean while I have not received any pills at all at that time and it was 15 days after I ordered them. I went home for lunch and guess what the pills were there susprise. I call them and they just gave me the run around about the 14 days. I am so mad why would I want a pill that I didn't even get to try, so why charge my account. I wished I looked into it better. I canced my order so I hope I don't get another charge.

#112 - Maria - 10/31/2008 - 14:22

SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE.......

This product is a scam!!!!!!!!!!! They send your product after the 14 day trial and try to charge your account before the 14 days. Customer service is very rude ( some lady named Tet) Send you over to a foreign speaking language country. Very aggrivating!!!!!!11 >-(

#113 - Wendy - 10/31/2008 - 16:35

This sucks!

I got scammed and can't believe it, like all others I don't fall for this crap, but I did! Got charged $89.31 and couldn't figure out what for, oh wait, never saw the cancellation notice within 14 days excerpt! I am disputing this and already contacted a lawyer, this needs to stop! Hopefully people take these comments into consideration - DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT - or you will get pulled in too!

Why oh why

Wow. Do I feel stupid or what!! Have just received my trial offer, but as ordering from the UK, I didn't receive them until the day after they charged me for my next supply. Thought, ok will give it a month to try as can't expect to see results in 14 days, then read all these reveiws!!! S**T. When i researched it beore taking up the trial, I saw none of these reveiws, only good ones! Damn, damn, damn. Will cancel credit card and report site to Facebook.

#115 - Kirsty Thomas - 11/02/2008 - 14:46

Thanks everyone

Yep, me too. I\'ve actually gone through a bottle, but got zero results. The phone # on the bottle is disconnected, so I\'ve cancelled my credit card before they can charge me more. So, who knows if there was really any acai in these things?! They were just like SweeTart candies! GNC has an acai pill product that has 500mg. acai in it, as ExtremeAcai is supposed to, so I may try that one. I just wanted to lose 10 stubborn pounds! SHEESH!

#116 - Holly - 11/02/2008 - 18:25

HELP!!!

Just been going through the reviews, it's like reading my own story over and over and over...I have just called my bank to see if they can block payments but have been told I have to wait to see if a payment comes off then I can dispute..not good! I am uk based and can't get through to the number given not to mention the cost of the call and that's just the machine!. I paid with my debit card, does anyone know if I cancel my back card, will this stop any other payment? I don't know what I was thinking, the same as everyone else I suppose. >-(

#117 - Michelle - 11/03/2008 - 09:14

Can't cancel !!!

I ordered the free trial and did see where if you don't call w/i so many days they will send you another bottle and charge your card. Well I have been trying to get someone on the phone for about a week and a half now and continue to get nobody! So guess what happened, your right, my card got charged and I STILL can't get ahold of anyone! I didn't even recieve my first order until 2 days before the cancellation date. How the heck you suppose to sample something that quick. I'm very disappointed! This drug was all over the news and talk shows but it seems as if us regular people are just getting ripped off!!!!!

#118 - Diane - 11/03/2008 - 09:25

Well guess what else?

Not only do you get charged for the Acai Berry. but there is a monthly charge to the "Fit Factory" of $29.95 that needs to be cancelled. I was able to get through to them thanks to Jennifer and the number. At Fit Factorty they gave me another number for Acai... non toll free although haven't been able to get through here you go.. 1-801-528-1391. Best of Luck! ;-)

#119 - Kim - 11/03/2008 - 10:52

They scammed me alright!!!!!!!

I ordered the 14 day free trial, yeah right free my a--!!!!!! It took almost 2 weeks to get here and when I was looking at my bank account, a charge for 89.31 was debited.
I never saw these microscopic conditions.
I immediately called them and they said they could not refund my money as the next order was shipped out that day. They did however, say that they would immediately cancel my membership or whatever you call it and said that I could return the unopened bottle of the next shipment and they would refund my account.
I have reported this scam to the BBB, and I am hoping they put a stop to this bs. As for the product, it doesn't work......I haven't noticed a difference at all

#120 - Lorri Ann Miller - 11/03/2008 - 11:54

cant cancel the product.

Well i got suckered in big time. Its true this product is a SCAM. I got my product on a Saturday and read the enclose paper with it about them billing me almost 90 dollars a month!!! if I don't cancel in 14 days. Well here is is Monday, and sure enought they have already took out 90 dollars from my bank account. I don't have the patience to to sit on the phone for days like some here have. I called my bank and had a new debit card issue to me. Learned my lesson well here. Had they put that 90 clause up front where everyone could see I never would of order this in the first place. sheesh.

#121 - Tracy - 11/03/2008 - 12:14

Almost but not quite

They almost got me. I thought $3.95 was fair enough for a 14-day trila of the \"Miracle\" Acai Berry pills. so I did it. I never received my free-trial. And yes, i was automatically signed up for \"Fit Factory\". I was able to call and cancel with them before any charges were made to my card. They wouldn\'t cancel via email, but I was able to reach them by phone. As for the Extreme Acai berry BullSH*T. I had to cancel my card through the bank to make sure no charges were posted. So I\'m out $3.95. I agree, this company is a HUGE rip-off and should be reported to every agency that protects consumers!!!

#122 - Melynda - 11/03/2008 - 13:09

Hidden Expenses

So, most of us have figured out this is a scam. However, I did not see any information on Fit Factory. What is that, you may ask? Well, if you signed up for a free trial for Extreme Acai Berry, then you were signed up for a 7 day free trial to an online tip sight called Fit Factory. After the 7 days, it automatically bills you 27.95 a month.

If you read the Extreme Acai Berry conditions, it says that if you cancel your order, then Fit Factory will be cancelled as well. However, that is Not true. You must call a separate number 1 866 407 1022 to cancel Fit Factory.

They will try to say all the information was in the emails; but no emails are sent. They are sister companies who each claim that the other should have sent out the information that you are now being billed for.

If they tell you there is no refund, keep trying; you will eventually be given a refund.

This is a disgusting scam, but the damage is not over until you have cancelled Fit Factory. So Please, call 1 866 407 1022 to cancel your online membership to a group you probably did not even know you belonged to.

#123 - Rachelle Tresch - 11/03/2008 - 14:59

OH MY WORD!!!!

So I had all the same problems that the previous guys did, but I can do one better. Apparently Extreme Acai Berry sold my information to a FitFactory or something and charged me 29.95 for a monthly diet website or some crap. I called FitFactory and they say that it was in the terms and conditions, but when I went back to the original terms and conditions there was nothing about a website or 29.95. In the end I had to cancel my credit card. No one would answer the phone. I am sorry for anyone who is reading this after they have already bought into this scam.

#124 - Boliver - 11/03/2008 - 17:44

scam?? so nothing happens at all??

i just wanna know for those people who tried this trial..is it really the same? no changes? no lose weight? why do celebrity people allowed them to use their name..just for a publicity?? :-(

#125 - la lola - 11/04/2008 - 01:15

Glad I read this

I stupidly clicked on the site and ordered the free trial today. I hit submit and noticed the "terms" at the bottom of their page. I read through understood their conditions and promptly called to cancel any future shipments or charges. My call was answered in a timely manner I was given a cancellation ID # and was assured that I would not be charged further. This being the first day of my 14 day trial period. I have also called my credit card company to give them the heads up and to note on my account what to look for etc. I have also mailed a letter of cancellation intent as a follow up to AcaiBerry and for my own records should a dispute need to take place. Question - have any of you that cancelled within the 14 days had any issues...have you still been charged?

#126 - Claudia - 11/04/2008 - 14:39

I have learned a lesson!

I also ordered the Acaiberry, printed the terms and conditions and figured I would cancel after the 14 day trial. Well you don't get the products before the trial is even up. I called and canceled today on day 11. See what happens. The other thing to watch for is the other 2 scams attached to it... FIT FACTORY and PRICE LIMBO. You need pay attention to the welcome e-mail. I just ignored the first one from Price Limbo until I got one from Fit Factory. Glad I went back and realized I did not join, then called and cancelled both... it could have been a night mare after the trial peroids on each product. I have learned a lesson about trial plans!!!

#127 - Diane - 11/04/2008 - 14:56

scam scam scam

i have been dupped signed for free trial via face book recived free trial today 4/11/08 credit card charged with 90 dollers 1st november finally got through to "customer services" and cancelled but i am still going to cancel credit cards do not trust these people at all

#128 - jane - 11/04/2008 - 18:22

Almost got suckered into this!

I was reading the sob story on the fat chick and thought ahh I could use a few pounds so I went to order the free trial and said let me google reviews first and LUCKILY found this site. I was halfway in filling out my personal information and went back to Acai Berry's site and tried to close the page, it then tried to offer me the free trial with only $1 shipping. Bunch of crap!! i work for a bank in the fraud department, I knew right then and there that they are scamming people, if you want them to have a free trial - WHY DO YOU NEED MY CREDIT CARD INFO!! No way - I wont even give my credit card numbers, passwords etc.. to my husband over the phone, computer, text. I see so much fraud a year it is ridiculous!

#129 - Sheryl - 11/04/2008 - 19:54

OMG - If you got signed up for \'Fit Factory\' when you got your trial...

Blocked?! Are you kidding me - did you read the other 75 comments above - well I did & there is so much duplication. I just read all 75 comments above & did not get this exact msg from those posts - which is exactly why I took the time to write it. I wish I had read a msg like mine because I could have easily been screwed a 2nd time.
------------------------------------

...check your email to see if you received an email from Fit Factory when you orded the trial of this product. I just got hooked by these guys (like everyone above) & spent hours on the phone w/ them; the cc company & the elevator music from hell & upon reading all of the comments on this page I thought I\'d better recheck that Fit Factory email that I filed & never planned to use..low & behold - there was some more fine print:

Please remember that after the 21-day FREE trial period, should you decide to keep the FitFactory membership, a fee of $19.95 will be billed to you every month. If you do not wish to continue, you may cancel your FitFactory membership anytime during your Free Trial period or thereafter. For any concerns or queries, you may contact our Customer Service number at 1-866-407-1022.

Guess I\'ve got some more calls to make :(

FYI - this is the phone # that I got from my cc company for the Acai scammers & it was actually answered quite a few times when I called (just had to endure a lot of waiting & fighting & hang ups - lots of fun) - 1-877-859-1109. I asked to speak to a Manager / Supervisor after 1 hang up too many from their young CSRs. Good luck everybody.

#130 - KIm - 11/04/2008 - 23:29

BIGGEST SCAM EVER, WARNING SHOULD BE ON EVERY WEB SITE!!!!!!!!!!

I also did the FREE no RISK trial of Acai Berry and this is the biggest SCAM I have ever been involved with they charged my credit card even before I recieved the free bottle and when I tried to call and cancle there was no getting though on the phone I was on hold forever. And they pass your info on to several different company's with the same cancelation phone number. So I too have cancelled my credit card. These people should be put in jail.!!!!!! Oh and by the way Oprah should not be endorsing this............:- >-(

#131 - Lola - 11/05/2008 - 09:46

Receptionist

This morning I was checking my bank account online and noticed a charge on 10/30 for $29.95 to Fit Factory which I was not familar with so I called the 800 number listed beside it, I inquired as to what this was for, the gal couldn't tell me. When I ask if they were affilliated with AcaiBerry she said yes, I insisted they put the charges back on my card and expressed my frustration for them sharing my Credit card number with anyone. She gave me a confirmation number and the number for an AcaiBerry contact.
After speaking with a person she said I would be credited the $3.95 in 3-5 days also, I guess I will have to see if they follow through but after reading some of the above comments I don't put alot of weight on anything positive.
I would certainly suggest contacting your BBB and anyone else it may take to get this company to stop their false advertising and rip off. It's a shame that our Country has come to such low down practices without batting and eye.

#134 - Jodi - 11/06/2008 - 12:41

The joke was on them

SEE, BEFORE I ORDERED I READ ALL OF THESE REVIEWS, BUT BECAUSE IT WAS A PRODUCT I WAS CURIOUS TO TRY, I ORDERED IT...THEN CANCELLED MY CREDIT CARD...JUST SAID IT WAS STOLEN AND THE BANK SENT ME A NEW ONE WITH A DIFFERENT #.SO, I HAVE THE PRODUCT...WHICH I MUST SAY I LOVE, BEEN USING IT FOR 4 DAYS AND I'VE FLUSHED OUT 3LBS. BUT HEY, I'M LOSING WEIGHT FOR FREE! :-P

#135 - boricua boop - 11/06/2008 - 15:15

VERY MAD! THANKS TO OPRAH!

i called and canceled after ordering the free trial and WAS STILL charged the $89.31. So i called the company and after 3 different tries i held for 45 minutes, i finally got someone on the phone. I cancelled and was told that my 1st 30day supply had already shipped and they gave me instructions on how to ship it back. well SURPRISE: it never came! so im still waiting on the refund [my 14 business days are not over]. Then i checked my account today and noticed an $8 charge from pricelimbo.com and SURPRISE: the customer service # was the same as the Acai berry. So after i talked to some very rude guy that was laughing and talking to someone in the background as I was trying to talk to someone, he hung up on me. I called back and talked to a lady that was much nicer and advised me on how to cancel that and assured me I would be refunded the money.

QUESTION: anyone who has been told they would get a refund, have they actually gotten one? Cuz i now have a total of $100 taken out of my account and it has caused me to overdraw! I live basically paycheck to paycheck. I would like to know if I am actually going to get refunded my money!!

#136 - megan - 11/06/2008 - 15:22

Bummed

I used the trial product and it is gone and not shed any weight at all so I am glad they never got a chance to get the whole cost...what a disappoitment!!

#137 - Lynn - 11/07/2008 - 14:01

Living the nightmare...

My wife saw this on Facebook and thought, "wow...this helps you keep from getting cancer and flushes your system and gives you more energy on top of it all!" The whole time I'm thinking to myself, hmmm... this doesn't sound good. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

When she's done talking to me about it, I'm off to do a Google search and find out more, and thus my arrival here. I sure hope people read all the way through these reviews because it was quite a ways down the list before I saw the reference to FitFactory. We haven't seen a CC statement yet but I had her call anyway. Sure enough, after giving name and address we found that we had been billed. This was when she believed it was a scam.

The last message before mine references PriceLimbo.com. How many more are there? Cancel your card people! Watch your statements to make sure nothing shows up that is not expected. Dispute anything that does show up.

The phone numbers listed worked for us but I can't help wondering if they really cancel anything. Does the confirmation number mean anything? Wouldn't the scam work better if they just humored us and then lost any evidence that a call was ever made? DING for another month!

CANCEL YOUR CARD! Don't trust the people you just caught scamming you.

#138 - Scott - 11/07/2008 - 19:35

Terms & Conditions

I purchased the free trial for $3.95 and on the bottom of the page in small print were the terms. Also there was a link on the bottom of the page you can click on that also explained the terms & conditions. I read the terms and I called and canceled it 11 days after I purchased online. Granted it did take a long time to get someone on the phone but when I did I was FIRM with the person and said "I WANT TO CANCEL!" He asked my reason and that was that. It has been about a month and everything is fine and I've had no additional charges. By the way I haven't even tried the free supply yet. ;-)

#139 - Lacy - 11/08/2008 - 14:03

Scam Scam Scam

I like many other people are upset about charges on my account. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING THIS PRODUCT. I recently had a baby and was feeling really ensecure about my body. After weeks and weeks of eating healthy and working out I wasn't loosing any weight. I decided to try this this "FREE TRIAL"-nothing in this world is free-ha! A week later my account was charged the $80 some dollars. I canceled my account right away, but I had a $30 charge to the Fit Factory, a $3 fee for a foreign transaction...so on and so forth. I talked to a woman who was decent but I still haven't gotten the charges reversed. >-(

#140 - Brittany - 11/08/2008 - 14:54

CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARD

Almost got me too. I tried calling them the same day I placed my order but the lines weren't going through. I've been waiting for my product for the past 12 days, when I decided to check some reviews. Thank God I came across this today. I called my bank and cancelled my credit card. They had only charged the $5.95. JUST CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARDS!!!

#141 - flo - 11/08/2008 - 17:37

Definitely a SCAM!! DON'T EVEN THINK OF ORDERING!

Yes, just like everyone else, I ordered the Extreme Acai Berry and never received the product. I called to cancel before they could charge me 90 bucks. Fit Factory also tried to charge my account for 28 bucks but it was declined, thank God! So I cancelled with them. Then today I noticed my bank statement with a charge of 8.51 from Price Limbo!!! Geez o Petes! So I called to cancel with them and demanded a refund. The lady hung up on me, so I called back and talked to a guy that told me I am cancelled and I will receive a refund in 14 days. I had to click on a link from an email he sent to completely cancel my account with Price Limbo. NEVER AGAIN!!! There are so many RATS in the world preying on hard working people and it really sucks!! :-(

#142 - Tonya - 11/08/2008 - 19:21

Thank goodness my Credit Card fraud division called me about this! The $89.31 charge showed up on my account from a medical "company" in Europe! I had the charge removed and closed my card. DO NOT GET EXTREME ACAI BERRY!

#143 - Acai Sucker - 11/10/2008 - 10:37

QUESTION?????

hey, i too got fooled by this scam.
i'm just wondering, if i cancelled my credit card, do i stil have to worry about calling this scam business telling them that to cancell my order and that i no longer want the product.

#144 - Oscar - 11/10/2008 - 11:48

Extreme Acai Berry

I was soo excited to recieve this product. Only wanting to shed 10-15 lbs or mainly just feel better, I decided to give this a try after seeing an advirtisment pop up. For only $3.95??!! Ok, whats it going to hurt? ALOT!
I recieved my bottle of the "miracle" pills on the 14th day after ordering. With the bottle was a peice of paper informing me that my trial period begins the day of order. Therefore, I didn't even have a trial period because it took 14 days to be shipped. I called on the 14th day to cancell and to my dismay my card had already been charged $90.02!!!! I called the company for 5 hours straight and it was busy every time. I finally got through and was put on hold for over 30 minutes. Every time someone did pick up i was put on hold from 15 minutes to 45 minutes. If I had the luxury of speaking with someone, they were nice at first stating that my money would be refunded to my card and sorry for the inconvenience. After two weeks went by an no money refunded...I called back. Once again to be on hold for 25 minutes. This time I spoke with someone named Jenny who was sooo rude. I told her my money needs to be refunded and it has been over two weeks since they told me they were refunding my money. She kept cutting me off and saying..Is that all maam? Is there anything else I can help you with besides that?
This has taught me to never buy anything online..if its too good to be true then it probably is. >-(

#145 - Brandy - 11/10/2008 - 14:48

SCREWED ALSO!!!!

I never order anything from the internet-1st time and I get screwed. Thank you for this review-I will never order anything again on line. Our atty. general will be hearing from me.

#146 - Dawn Roberts from Austin, TX - 11/10/2008 - 15:07

Ripped Off and MAD!

SAME SAD STORY AS ABOVE. I have contacted a lawyer. Will post any news!

#147 - DMH - 11/10/2008 - 18:33

BIG TIME SCAMMED

Yes I too ordered the extreme acai berry and notice ALL these charges popped up on my account!! 4.95 then 9.95 then 89.31 and 8.51 all from different companies that I have been on hold with for at least 20 mins and got some shitty music guess they play that and hope that you hang up!! Well after calling at least 10 different numbers, getting the same shitty music I was determined that I am getting my money back.....20 mins later I talked to this girl got my confirmation number tonight so heres hoping that I will get my credit of 89.31 that she says is still pending (in which I called my bank today and it was scheduled to go thro tonight) so heres hoping!! I then called the other companies that I didn\'t even sign up for, re: fit factory, price limbo etc to get confirmation of cancellation. SOOOOO again heres hoping that this is cleared up!! I hate that you can\'t trust anyone - product probably works, haven\'t had time to try it just received it Sat and was charged today (monday) so my luck it is a good product but not worth the hassle!!! So DON\'T DO IT is all I can tell you!!! >-(

#148 - LiSA - 11/10/2008 - 21:21

so relieved to have found this sight

boy oh boy am I glad I found this site. I was going to try and trick them by calling and saying I didn't have a credit card because I DID look at the small print and was not going to go through that instant bill and ship crap again. But after all of the comments and information given above, my mind is made up not to even bother. I'm going to the health food store and get some pure juice and take it daily and see what happens. It won't cost me 89.00 and I won't have to chase down some sleezy business practicing folks..
so I top my hat off to you all for your input, you have saved me anxiety and stress I don't need. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

#149 - juliette - 11/10/2008 - 21:29

I am so pissed off. Unfortunately for me I did not come upon this website until after I ordered the free trial. So I put my information in and everything then when it came to hit the "Submit" button it said that it didn't go through and to use a different card, so I thought maybe I had put in the wrong numbers so I did it again but yet it said the same thing. So I gave up and closed. But imagine my surprise when I checked my bank account later to find TWO charges from the White Acai pills. GRR! I'm changing my card.

#150 - sue - 11/10/2008 - 23:01

THX!!!!!! WONT BE ORDERING THIS PRODUCT....

I have been debating on ordering this product but after all these reviews I will not be ordering it. Thx for posting these reviews so no more people will fall for this scam. :-)

#151 - reyna - 11/11/2008 - 10:03

How can this be a fair trial?

About half way down this board there seems to be a reply from AcaiBerry under @read the small print' I Quote:

'If you read the fine print
I understand that by ordering Extreme Acai Berry., I am agreeing to receive Extreme Acai Berry. for a 14-day trial period (days of availability for actual usage could be less depending on shipping time) beginning on date of order. $3.95 (non-refundable) for S&P. I understand that unless I cancel by calling 1-801-208-7490 within this 14-day period, beginning on the 15th day my credit card will automatically be charged $89.31 (Free Shipping) for a 31 day supply of Extreme Acai Berry. to be shipped at that time to my door. Thereafter, until and unless I cancel, my credit card will automatically be charged an additional $89.31 every 31 days for a new supply of Extreme Acai Berry.. I understand that I may cancel any future shipments Monday through Friday by calling 1-801-208-7490. Our hours of operation are from 8am to 5pm MST.I understand that this consumer transaction involves a negative option and that I may be liable for payment of future goods and services, under the terms of this agreement, if I fail to notify the supplier not to supply the goods or services described.
We do not accept returns on any products that have been shipped.
It's all right there.
#48 - if you read - 10/20/2008 - 19:13'

Putting aside the fact that no one can get through to the company to cancel, how can you 'trial' a product if it is posted 14 days or more after you order it, and you are supposed to make up your mind if you want to continue?
For a trial to really be a trial you should have the right to cancel 14 days after you RECEIVE it, or even better, choose to oder more if you wish. After all, if it is as good as they say it is, the orders will come rolling in, and everyone will think they are an OK company. (except they won't and they arn't if all of above are right)

Some people have said they were given a cancellation number, does that mean a cancal refference, or another telephone number to ring?

Despit trying to get my CC company to block payments I await my $89.13 charge whilst feeling stupid.

#152 - Andrew Day - 11/11/2008 - 11:41

Thanks to those that posted before me

I thought it odd that there was no contact info on the MANY MANY sites. I also thought it odd that there was the same wording on thier testimonial sites. But I still wanted to belive. I spent an hour today trying to find a site that gave a TRUE and HONEST testimonial - not one's that were created by the company. Sorry for those of you that got ripped off - totally sucks, but THANK YOU for posting your story. You just made me change my mind about this crap. I know you are helping others also.

#153 - Wendy - 11/11/2008 - 12:02

Now in the UK

I see now, on checking how small the small print is, they have a new web site with 'NOW IN THE UK!' and a Union Flag on it with a payment to be taken in pounds sterling, BUT the cancal tel number is still in USA and all subsiquent payments are in US$ so nothing's changed except they are trying to make you think you are being supplied from within the UK, which you are not.

#154 - Andrew Day - 11/11/2008 - 12:05

I GOT SCAMMED!

I too got scammed. Fortunately not as bad as some of these people, since I saw their reviews, but Acai 500 still snuck in some shady affliation! They number on the site I ordered from was on of the invalid numbers that didn't work! I found the legit number on one of these scam review sites and canceled the very next day after I ordered my "trial". I also called and canceled fitday. BUT, there is an affiliate they don't tell you they're signing you up for. They say "uncheck the box" so that you are not signed up for their affliates, but there was no box to uncheck! Fitday hasn't screwed me over, when I canceled it was canceled, no more surprise charges. Here is thier sneaky affliate, it's called "Price Limbo". It is no where on the site that you order your trial from. I got a surprise charge of $8.51 to my account. I called they number by it on my checking account, and it was Acai, again. They said that yes my account had in fact been canceled, but because I didn't "deactivate it" Price Limbo still went ahead with their charge. >-(

Well, hello, jerks, when I canceled first of all you didn't say ANYTHING about deactivating, or about Price Limbo! Second, if I canceled, doesn't that mean you want your account deactivated?? DUH! I know it wasn't the $90 to $100 other people were scammed out of, but that is not the point. The point is they sign you up for a second affliate with absolutely no notice or warning to you!877-350-8480 is a working number to call to cancel Acai, AND make ABSOLUTELY SURE you tell them to cancel and send you the "Deactivation" e-mail for Price Limbo! I'm lucky I had money in the bank, because all to often, I don't! What a nightmare this company is! This number was by the initial trial charge to my account, not sure if it is a working number or not 877-859-0952. Best of luck.
Oh and incase you need it, here is the Fitday # 1-866-407-1022. Good luck people!

I ORDERED THE ACUAI BERRY SUPREME TRIAL PACKAGE ONLINE FOR THE LOW SHIPPING PRICE OF $5.95 on October 19, 2008 and did not recive them until November 3, 2008. In the meantime I have been charged $29.95 10/30/200 from Fit Factory and $91.10 from IP Body Supplements before I even received the trial package (November 4. 2008). I wanted to cancel and I have tried to reach someone by telephone but can never get through.
I just received the pills on November 4, 2008 but was already charged $89.31 + $1.79. from IP Supplements on 11/5/08 and $29.95 Fit Factory on 10/30/08. The enclosure states that unless they hear from me within the 14 days of the trial period I will automatically be billed for a 30 day supply. I have reported this charge to my bank and the company will be hearing from my bank. This is clearly a case of misleading information, deliberate late mailing
of the trial package and fraud.

#157 - catherine mar - 11/11/2008 - 14:41

Watch out for pricelimbo.com

Anyone who has ordered this product, PLEASE PLEASE look for a charge of $8.51 on your statement. This is another hidden addon to this crap! I have checked the site that I ordered from and NOWHERE is there ANYTHING about pricelimbo.com OR fitfactory. I got my money back from them and now have to deal with this crap with these people. NEVER again will I do a "free trial" without doing the research that I did AFTER I got sucked into this mess. Hope this helps anyone else stuck in this visious cycle.

#158 - tracy - 11/11/2008 - 23:54

SAME THING HERE!

Yes, I too fell for it. Cancelled credit card today after being charged 29.99 from Fit Factory. Put a dispute in with the bank and called the companies and insisted on a refund. We will see if I get it. After everything I have read here and on other sites I am shocked to find out that after all of the trouble these scammers are putting us through that the people who actually received the product are actually putting it into their mouths!
Personally, I would be terrified to ingest something that was acquired so deceptively. Food for thought everyone!

#159 - Lauren - 11/12/2008 - 10:13

SCAMMED! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!

Well just like the rest of you, I've been scammed by the company I purchased a free trial of Acai Berry and Total Cleanse from. I never saw anything saying I was locking into a monthly charge, but today I checked my account balance online and saw a bogus charge of $88.62. (I haven't actually received anything from them yet.) I called my bank immediately and the gal there didn't even want to help me, but I told her I wanted my debit card cancelled TODAY! And, I called the company and guess what, their phone line never rang. All I heard was silence. I called them several times. So I can't even get in touch with them to cancel. And, if that's not bad enough, I have thrown away the paperwork so I don't even have the name of the company. All I know is it's in Florida! This sucks!

#160 - LINDA - 11/12/2008 - 12:00

At least call them and tell them off

Yes, the routine is the same! I got played! Note that once you give them your credit card number they give it to other companies. We called the bank to dispute the charges and the bank said this company has found a loophole to charge you this (must be the microscopic terms and conditions) but the mere fact that they purposely wait 14 days to send you the product so that they can charge you the $90 is against the law because it's false advertising. They know you don't want to pay $90 that's why they don't advertise it on their website. I found out that this acai berry can be bought anywhere(GNC) for a fraction of the price and it's the SAME THING! Your credit card company should fight for you or you have the wrong credit card. You were not given ample time to try nor cancel product nor were you given a price to agree on. So do what I did and call them and rip them a new one. It feels soooo good. I'll even give you the number, but know you will be on hold 10 minutes. Just put the phone on speaker til they pick up. Let's get these people back!!!!! :-(

1-877-350-8480 or 801-208-7485. Please note this is a scam and not a business, so don't call expecting results, just call and get it off your chest, it made me feel better!

#161 - Shawna S. - 11/12/2008 - 13:52

Count Me In!

I can't believe this company hasn't been shut down yet! The phone number doesn't work! I did read the fine print about getting enrolled into an autoshipment plan-but didn't see the other sneaky part about getting enrolled into the cleasing product as well- and I guess I should have tried the number BEFORE I placed the order for the "free" trial-as it seems to be non-functioning. I finally was able to cancel through a live chat on a different website I found through the BBB- and I also filed a complaint with them. I still went ahead and canceled my credit card- as I don't trust that they will not try to sneak in fraudulent charges in the future! They SUCK!

#162 - Brittney - 11/12/2008 - 18:23

THEY GOT ME AFTER i EVEN CHANGED MY NUMBER!

Okay so i have written on here before.. i got the free trial finally like 4 days ago. I also am reminding every one i got a different bank card number and activated which should automatically cancel my other bank card! WELLLL... today i have a charge from IP-2ENHANCEMYBODY for $89.31.
i just called my bank to ask why this fraudulent company is still making charges to my bank account after the DC number i gave acai berry isnt supposed to be available to work.

ALSO THEY GiVE YOUR INFORMATiON TO OTHERS. DO YOU HAVE 800NUMBERS CALLiNG YOUR HOUSE ABOUT YOUR "last 4 digits of your card ****" and saying "YOU EARNED FREE GAS!" yaaa another scam WELL im pissed and good luck to the rest of you.

MEGAN # 103 here is your answere because i too live paycheck to paycheck and they overdrew my bank account! IF you want it canceled... CALL YOUR BANK!!! with your information and say that you did not authorize to make that purchase and they give you a number and refund your money and you have to call and make and investigation.

NOTE: i am only 21 and i am already becoming a fraud victim... tell everyone about this fraud and stop it now from spreading!

TOTAL CLEANSE/ACAI BERRY

I am SICK!! I also fell for the acai berry/ total cleanse scam and here is what happened to me. They give you fourteen days to cancel, it took them over ten days just to give it to me then on top of that the phone number was always busy on the bottle when I finally did receive it and NO email address to cance. I saw a pending charge on my bank statement of 83 dollars and some change, I about crapped! I called the number on my bank statement and some girl answered and said she would credit me back THEN instead of putting me on hold she asked someone next to her "I cant figure out how to reverse these charges" girl number 2 days "did she get the bottle?" girl 1 says "yes" girl 2 says "To hell with her, she got the product so dont take it off" I was FURIOUS I said "EXCUSE ME?! I JUST HEARD YOUR WHOLE CONVERSATION, ARE YOU IN A CUBICLE OR TAKING THESE CALLS FROM YOUR HOME? BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DO YOUR JOB THE CHARGES ARE STAYING ON MY ACCOUNT?" she said with an attitude "YEP, PRETTY MUCH" and HUNG UP ON ME! Now I have to call them back just to make sure they cancelled it. I am also disputing this with my bank and canceling my cc number so this can not happen again to me next month. Listen ladies you want to clean out your colon? Order some Uni Fiber because that is alot better then dealing with this crap. I have NEVER been so angry over unprofessionalism in MY life!!! Its crap and I am humiliated that I even fell into it. Being fat sucks, so I am going to start walking more and eating healthier that is the sure "miracle" way to lose weight.

#164 - Tabitha - 11/12/2008 - 23:44

i tried the 14 day trial and in that time they took out the payment but I still have yet to recieve the product so right now I am trying to get a hold of them to find out what is up with taking payments but not giving out the product.

#165 - Dani - 11/13/2008 - 12:26

Thank you Thank you! Thank you! is all I can say to this site. I was just about to order this product and wanted to find out more. Thank god I found this site. now i know what a scam it is.

#166 - tj - 11/13/2008 - 14:53

INHUMANE

TERRRIBLE I told the rep I would have felt better giving the money to a homeless person. She offered 44.65 back but then said they would refund all my money back if I mail the product back once I receive it. I DO NOT BELEIVE THEM ! Wonder why?

Well I am definitely reporting this to the BBB and the media.

Fed up !

#167 - Violet - 11/13/2008 - 19:21

Suggestion

Your best bet, in most states, is to contact your state Attorney General's office. All that I know of have a consumer protection/complaint department that WILL address the issue.

Here in Arkansas, the above referenced sales tactics that include auto-shipping and hoops to jump through to cancel have already been addressed in the past - so they know what they are doing.

#168 - Mike - 11/13/2008 - 23:32

I ordered the 14 day trial on October9th. Recieved the bottle a few days later and read the fine print that came with it. Cancel within 14 days to avoid being billed the $89.31. I called everyday and finally got thru on October 17th. Cancelled and got a cancelation number. Was doing some research on the pill today to see what the pill was actually meant to do besides give u gas, and stumbled across this page. So for shits and giggles I checked my bank account and to my suprise on october 24th they billed me $89.31. I called the company and surprisingly got thru rather quickly. They are trying to tell me that I didnt cancel until October 29h, according to their records... When I asked them for a supervisor I was put on hold for a few minutes..she returned and said that the supervisor was unavailable but because I swore that I cancelled on the 17th she was going to give me my money back on my card within 14 days. I never recieved a 2nd bottle of pills.. Ill let ya know in 14 days if I got my money back. Also watch out for other companies now trying to scam u. I have about 8 different 800#s calling me now saying that they are billing me for this or that or that i have $40.00 worth of gas vouchers coming in the mail..

#169 - April - 11/14/2008 - 10:00

solution

Ok I am going to help all of you that are having problems. I ordered this stuff and cancelled 5 days after.
Try calling the Total Cleanse number, back to back several times. I got through and an automated person came on the line and I was on hold for about 7 minutes. If this is does not work go to: http://sflnutrition.com/
There is a LIVE CHAT session that you can start and they will cancel for you and also send you a confirmation e-mail and transcript of the whole conversation.

#2
If you ordered Acai Berry 500, I got through fine. HOWEVER, you will need to also call the CANCEL the FIT program and the PRICE LIMBO program. When you get this product you are automatically entered into this agreement. If you do not CANCELL you WILL be charged after the trail period of 7 days.

FIT : 1-866-407-1022
The guy was very helpful. If you ordered Total Cleanse and Acai Berry you have 2 account with them, make sure you CANCELL BOTH accounts.

Price Limbo is a Website
www.pricelimbo.com

Go to “sign in”
User: e-mail address
Password: zip code

You will need to go to my account information and request to cancel. They will send you a deactivation e-mail and you will need to click on it in your own personal e-mail account to deactivate.

This should take care of everything.

#170 - kaysen - 11/14/2008 - 10:59

I'm gonna call and B **** them out!!!

I usualy dont buy things off the internet, but one day i thought hell why not! its only a dollar for shipping and i signed up and a few weeks later i get a tiny bottle of probably placibo pills and get charged $89.31! This is a bullcrap website and i feel very stupid for thinking it was a good idea to give away my credit card info to "diet" pill website... people keep on coming up with ways to screw others over! SICK!

#171 - Annaliese - 11/14/2008 - 11:44

BIGGEST SCAM EVER - BEWARE OF THIS PRODUCT

Oh my goodness I can't believe I was suckered into this scam... I placed an order online for free sample and it took 17 days to arrive at my home and they had already billed another $89.31 to my visa before I received even the free "TRIAL"... I cancelled the product the 2nd day of receipt when I saw that these so called wieght loss pills were a scam and they are nothing more than sugared candy and DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.... I then recieved another bottle in the shipped out from their warehouse stamped 9 days after cancelling my account and it was again billed to my visa.... I called them but they don't give you any kind of reassurance that you will ever get the money back... You are out the 89.31U.S.$$$ and they can keep up their little scam ripping us off.... WE MUST STOP THEM...

DO NOT FALL INTO THIS TRAP.

#172 - Marion - 11/14/2008 - 13:04

BIG Scam Alright!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got on this website and never saw any fine print that I would get charged $89.31. I don\'t have a credit card, so asked my girlfriend to order this for me. I paid her the $4.99 + $1.00 s/h fee. A couple weeks later, she talks to me, because her credit card gets charged $89.31 from this same company. I now have to pay her these charges and feel like such a fool for going on this website and thinking that I am getting a free trial basis Acai Berry pill. This is totally a scam. Don\'t even bother to go onto their website, because it seems like even if you want it or not, you automatically get charged. I think this whole scam should be put on 20/20, so other good, hard working people don\'t get fooled.

#173 - Suzz - 11/14/2008 - 15:25

they got me to

I put all my money in the bank and when I checked to see what I had left $89.31 was missing out of my account. I was so mad. I called the number they left and they said there was no way I could get my money back because I signed up for for it. I was tricked and now im pissed. :oops:

im gonna cal again and make sure that there is no way they can charge me for it again. I feel so dumb rite now for falling for that.

#174 - jasmine - 11/14/2008 - 19:18

One Less Scammed!!!

I am so relieved, after reading these reviews, that I used a visa giftcard with a balance of a few dollars to order the 14 day trial offer. I was worried for a few minutes until I remembered that I did not use my debit or credit card. I ordered over the phone after watching an infomercial and never saw or heard anything about this automatic billing each month and the representative never mentioned it. I also got through the first try and without a wait. The product was ordered on 10/26/08. The card was billed $3.95 on 10/27/08. I received the product yesterday 11/13/08. I would not have even known about this scam if my husband had not mentioned it to me last night when he saw the package. B-)

#175 - Jacqi - 11/15/2008 - 00:37

Was suckered as well!

I felt for the low cost of just shipping and the ability to try something that I thought might help me lose weight, what did I have to lose. I never received the product and then the next thing I noticed a charge of $29.95 on my bank statement for Fit Factory. I had no clue who this organization was. It was when I began to do some research I discovered that they were a part of the organization that was to send me the pills. I was so upset I sent an e-mail to Fit Factory insisting that they cancel my subscription because I had no clue I had subscribed to this site. Then I let them know I had never received the pills either. Well low and behold a few days later the pills appeared. Good thing I opened the package and read the photocopied slip of paper indicating that they would charge my account $89.31 after 14 days. I knew that was not going to happen. So I called the number listed and no one ever answered. I let it stay on hold for well over an hour before I hung up. Bright and early this morning I called again and no one answered. So I did my usual Saturday activity of balancing my check account and found the charge of $89.31 in my "holding" area to be withdrawn on Monday. I immediately called my bank to explain what was going on and they put the money back into my account and made a not that no future payments from this organization should be withdrawn from my account because they are a fraudulent organization. I also received a message from the Fit Factory organization indicating that my subscription with them had also been cancelled. I will be watching for these charges on a regular basis and complain to my bank if they appear again. I will send a letter to this organization as indicated by a previous message. I will send the letter certified with a signature required though.

So sad that we were all dupped by them! :-(

#176 - Karen - 11/15/2008 - 10:48

I\\\'m ashamed to believe that a product like this would help me lose weight, let alone be so forthecoming. I contacted my credit company after trying about 10 times and 4 different 800#\\\'s to contact this company. I REALLY wish I had read this review 1st. I am a struggling student and single mother, I don\\\'t need this $90 monthly charge. Even IF this product happened to work. It tastes like candy too! EXPENSIVE candy! I still am unable to get through to cancel my order. NExt time I\\\'ll be keeping my credit card in my pocket!!!!!!! THanks anyway, for the heads up.

#177 - Tamberly - 11/15/2008 - 18:37

Do Not Order!!!

I did find and read the terms. Silly me. I even posted a sticky to cancel the day before the 14 days after ordering. The trial pills arrived 13 days after the order leaving me a whopping 1 day to try! I called that day to cancel but had the same problem with the phones and did not get through. I was given an optional number by Fit Factory and I did get through. They told me that they had cancelled my order and even gave me a confirmation#. But them I noticed a charge for $90.02 on my card and called. I did get through and the rep told me she spoke to a supervisor and they would close my account and credit my CC. Apparently they did not do this and 9 days after that call they shipped out the pills because I got them 7 days after they shipped. Sp 16 days after I was told they would credit my CC I got the pills. When I called to complain they told me I didn't call and I could not return them and that they would close my account and credit my CC for half what I paid and I could keep the pills because they did not take returns.

So after reading all of this I too am going to my bank and canceling my CC and ordering a new one. I just do not trust this company. I have never filed fraud on anyone, but I am going to pursue this and report to the BB. This all leaves a bad taste in my mouth and it's not the pills that left it either!!!

#178 - Cindy Little - 11/16/2008 - 02:39

Other sucker!

I can't believe i have fallen for this too - I am trying to call from the Uk and unable to get through - des anyone know the exact number you are supposed to call from the UK - i am sure it is just them not answering the phone - but if you could confirm codes etc.
I have called my back who say I cannot cancel my card - i have just tried emailing the address above - any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks

#179 - Shelley - 11/16/2008 - 08:00

Scam!!

I bought the free trial of Extreme AcaiBerry and it was a complete scam! I got a free trial of chewable tablets for a 2 week supply and then about 2 weeks later they charged $89 to my account~! They could do this because I didn't know to call and cancel my order after my free trail. I thought it was a one time free trial?! WHAT A RIP OFF!!! AND they do not accept returns! Thanks a lot!

#180 - Sara - 11/17/2008 - 00:30

You wont be fooled unless you act like one

I almost ordered the 14 day subscription UNTIL i read the fine print -which makes sense since it\'s unknown website AND you have to enter your credit card information. I believe your asking for it if you are not going to read the fine print and give your credit card information to any website claiming to give you a free trial -lets be realistic, they\'re just going to give millions of people 14 day trials for FREE! This product works great, but I recommend ordering off of Ebay -that way you don\'t get hooked on the auto-bill system; instead you order it as you wish.

#181 - unknown - 11/17/2008 - 02:50

Mr.

I saw this product advertised on the Cooking Channel and it
said that it had been endorsed by Oprah and was being used by Chef Rachael Ray. The offer was a FREE TRIal for $3.95
for shipping cost. All of a sudden the company selling this
product is pulling aSCAM. After 14 days you will be billed
automatically for $89.31 (Free shipping) for a 31 day supply
to be shipped at that time to my door.Thereafter, until and
unless I cancel, my Credit Card will be automatically be
charged and additional #89.31 every 31 days foe a new supply.
I understandthat I may cancel ant future shipments Monday
through Friday, 8am to 5 pm MST.
I am reporting this SCAM to the Florida State Attorney
Generals Office to take Action against this Copmpany.

#182 - Paul Schultz - 11/17/2008 - 08:59

NOT WORTH IT!

I paid for my free trial on 11-05-08 I have still yet to see the product as of 11-17-08. Second of all your information including credit card number is given to other companies. I found this out the hard way when I had a $29.95 charge to my account. When I called Acaiberry the woman I spoke with informed me that it was a company affiliated with them. I was like "YOU DID WHAT! THAT WAS NOT IN THE SMALL PRINT!" I was so mad.. I canceled anything and everything related to them and called my bank to dispute the charge and cancel my credit card. >-(

#183 - Karisa - 11/17/2008 - 10:56

I had the same experience as the others above. I received my trial order later then 14 days after order. This is a horrible scam. I suggest that everyone call there State Attorney General Office and report this scam. Pissed off in Missouri

#184 - Terry - 11/17/2008 - 11:30

Totally scammed

Apparently the Acai Berry Company is not only unavailable on the weekends, it is also unavailable on weekdays. I have tired the number on their website here:
http://www.extremeacaiberry.com/http://www.extremeacaiberry.com/

And I've also tried three other numbers listed on this page. All have the same recording. All hang up on you after 5 minutes of holding. I tried calling on my cell and work and now my home phone. INSANE!

I canceled my card at the bank and they have issued me a new one.

I decided to do some more research...When I googled The Acai Berry, the first three site pop up as Acai Berry warnings...All three links direct you to the same three Acai Berry sites. Stupid me. I've totally been duped and I haven't even received the product yet.
There's no way to cancel so I'm stuck.
Arrrg!

#185 - Christie - 11/17/2008 - 14:46

Blindsided by Acai scam!

My husband suffers from leukenia so I thought I would get these for him since he has actually been drinking acai juice and it seems to have slowed down the progress of the disease. His oncologist was impressed and told him to continue, but,the juice is expensive and I thought I would get this "free" trial sample and see if it worked as well and if it did, we would continue with it. Well, lo and behond...the ridiculous charge of $89.00 was charged to my account for shipping and handling and another $29.00 for something else that I have no idea what it's for. I have received nothing and the calls go unanswered or the line is always busy. This is truly sad because this is a good marketable product and just might help people but instead we get these crooks and cheats that have found a way to sell something that we don't even know is safe or not. I wouldn't dream of letting my husband take any of these even if they do come in. Lord only knows what could be in those capsuls. I have friends in high places and I am not going to let this go by. The rest of you out there...keep fighting for your rights. These people need to be stopped!

#186 - tootsie - 11/18/2008 - 03:08

Dont forget the other charges

Hey what about the other extra charges. Not only did I not get the trial bottel until after the full sized bottle showed up but I was also charged $29.99 for some fit factory website! After a complete freak out on the fit factory website costomer rep. they were nice enough to refund the charges. However, I have now called the Acai Company 5 times. The first 2 #'s I tried were disconnected (of corse those were the numbers they supplied the public with). I then asked the bank for the phone # the bank had. I have now called that # 3 times and each time a recording of a mans voice come on and tells me someone will be right with me I then sit on hold listening to music for 5 mins. Then the music stops and you hear nothing no ring no music not even a dial tone. So please do not order this product is it so not worth it!

#187 - Kenz - 11/18/2008 - 08:46

I also got scammed, in the uk.........cant seem to reach them on their phones to cancel my subscription. I oreded on the 27th of October and they sent it on the 12th of november, charged my account by the 13th...only received the product yesterday 17th...and read the small note that comes with the tria. Called my bank to cancel...please anyone have their numbers they actually answer? :oops:

#188 - Joy - 11/18/2008 - 09:03

Huge Rip Off

this is the biggest ripoff! I canceled within the 14 days but am still fighting for a credit of $8.51 for a pricelimbo.com which i have no idea what that is. they have actually tried to run my card again but im in the process of changing accounts so i only have $1 in it. they keep telling me in 3-5 days over and over. im not giving up on this im gonna keep calling!

#189 - Vicki - 11/18/2008 - 11:35

Huggggeeee Rip-offffffff

I got suckered too!!!! $89.31 taken out of my account. Bank says once you put your 3-digit security number in it gives them the authority to let these charges go through.. Fit Factory was very nice and gave me my $39.99 back.. I signed-up for this on Rachelray.com and have been calling them .. To let them know that I am NOT happy that they had no idea that this was a Scam. Good Luck all...

#190 - Rose Beauchesne - 11/18/2008 - 12:27

UK people who were scammed

I was scammed by the "free trial" too and I'm in New Zealand. It's obviously happening all over the world and I will be reporting this to Facebook.
My bank hasn't been that helpful, but will dispute the charges. I also managed to call the numbers for both extreme acai berry and fitfactory from outside the USA.

For people who wish to do this, the best thing is to download Skype and call that way. I was not even charged. Thanks, Skype!

Acai Berry tried to tell me that I could not get a refund but would offer me a free bottle and that my account was cancelled. I also have a cancellation number. I was firm, but polite (the guy was pretty nice as I was polite to him) and I kept being firm about the reverses being charged insisting that I knew other people had been successful with this company about getting their charges reversed. This finally seemed to work and he said that it would be processed within 14 business days.
I will be watching my account with baited breath.
Did anyone here DEFINITELY receive their money back?

I too thought I would not get caught by such a SCAM. Can't contact this company to cancel unauthorised transactions on my account. Cancelled my bank card but still they can take money because I gave them the security digits (which you have to to buy on line, which I now find gives them more access to my bank account than me.

Only way to stop these people is to cancel your bank account.

DONT TRADE WITH THEM THEY ARE A BUNCH OF BASTARDS.

I suspect you will not post my last comment as I referred to these people as illegitimates.

THIS IS A VERY GOOD SCAM BECAUSE IT TURNS OUT THEIR CONTACT DETAILS ARE FICTITIOUS YOU CANNONT CANCEL THE UNAUTHORISED WITHDRAWAL FROM YOUR BANK ACCOUNT. THE ONLY WAY IS TO CANCEL THE BANK ACCOUNT. EVEN CANCELLING THE BANK CARD DOES NOT WORK AS YOU GIVE THEM THE SECURITY DIDGITS WHICH GIVES THEM MORE ACCESS TO YOUR ACCOUNT THAN YOU.

THESE PEOPLE NEED STOPPING.

DO NOT GET CAUGHT UP IN THIS SCAM

#193 - MAGGIE - 11/19/2008 - 07:12

EMAIL THEM TO CANCEL - PHONES NO GOOD

This scam is unbelievable. They send your sample late and the day you receive it unsuspectingly you are signed up and they are already robbing you of £62 (england) or $89 WHERE WERE THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, THERE WEREN'T ANY. Dont bother with the phone calls email them at CUSTOMERSERVICE@NUBODI.COM and cancel tell them to cancel Acai, Nubodi, Pricelimbo and The Fit Factory you can also go on the Fit Factory website www.fitfactory.com and send a contact message to them also. The telephones are a scam also and they have about 6 numbers that I have collected. I emailed and got a reply the next day but they had already taken money from my bank for the months supply. My bank are trying to get it back. Can someone in the states please do something about these people. I am in england and have had to change debit card and everything. They need shopping to every authority you can try in the states. VERY ANNOYED GEORDIE

#194 - Joy Thomas - 11/19/2008 - 08:24

Shut them down

I also went into the website, filled everything out, then thought, better not, closed the site and still my order went thru. Then when I received the bottle anyway, looked on website, found no official statement connected to free trial but in Terms on the bottom. I have tried the product and it also is making me sick to my intestinals, want to cancle and can't get thru. Called my bank and ordered account closed. Never again.

#195 - pia - 11/19/2008 - 10:31

Acai Berry rot

Like many, i fell for the 'free trial' scam...cancelled my card..tried to contact them to no avail....i've just rang the specialist investigation team at my bank and there is now a fraud investigation starting, they are going to investigate this company. I'm aware i won't get the £65.00 back that they've already robbed off me, but i have learnt that i'll never fall for anything like that ever again. After reading the info and advertising on their website they are also liable for false and misleading advertising...i have sought legal advice and have a case against them.
If it costs me double the £65.00 to get my money back i wont mind...at least the robbing pigs wont have my money anymore.....

#196 - daft-mare - 11/19/2008 - 15:19

Another scam story to chalk...

In reading everyone's posting, I'm feeling really sick as the stories one-by-one sound like my own. The feeling of wanting to kick your own butt for falling victim to crap like this.

In Oct. my husband ordered the trial acai pills. Till this day, he has not received anything he was charged for which was 3.95 and the heart stopping $89.31. I wouldn't have known to pay attention had I not question the $29.95 charge from FitFactory. How could anyone possibly be enrolled in any type of subscription without receiving the initial product to begin with. A trial period is not really a trial.

I called my CC and they are filing a dispute for me though they say it's going to take some time. If only they could see how many people have the same ripoff story. Acai company promised a refund (3.95 + 89.31) over a week ago since we never received product and was told it was backordered.

Called today, gal told me some BS about the refund takes awhile because they gotta do some bank to bank transfer etc. I told her I didn't believe her but that I believed they are scammers! I finally canceled my CC # because I'm afraid now of more scam charges! CANCEL your CCs NOW!

In hopes of making myself feel better, I contacted my friend who's a deputy attorney general to file a complaint. Not happy in Hawaii! >-(

#197 - Tracy - 11/19/2008 - 19:17

Still fighting

I finally got through to cancel got my refund of $89 but now I see a new charge too for $8.51 from Price Limbo, same as you Vicki. I have finally closed the CC so no further charges can be processed. I also received another email from them today saying that my order had been processed. I didn't order & I still have all my paper work showing I cancelled with names of the people I spoke with & confirm numbers. I have learned my lesson!!!

#198 - Becky - 11/20/2008 - 07:05

What the small print REALLY says! Acaiberry SCAM!

Terms & Conditions: (these terms/conditions only apply to the free trial) Start your trial now to receive a full month supply of Acai-Noni Burner (retails for eighty four dollars). You will have fourteen full days from today to evaluate and decide if you wish to keep the remaining 30 day supply and continue receiving Acai-Noni Burner. If you enjoy Acai-Noni Burner, simply do nothing. You will be billed the discounted price of only seventy nine dollars and ninetey five cents at the end of your fourteen day trial period for your initial supply. You will be billed thirty days from today to replenish your supply of Acai-Noni Burner and begin your monthly auto shipment unless cancelled (this is a savings off the retail price, and is available to you today). You will enjoy our auto ship program that will deliver your monthly supply of the Acai-Noni Burner Diet. You are still receiving this trial one hundred percent risk free because if, for ANY reason, you decide that Acai-Noni Burner is not for you, simply call 877-317-0189 and we will quickly assist you with canceling your Acai-Noni Burner auto ship program as well as help you with a refund. No future commitments, no hassles. Cancel any time. I also understand that I will enjoy a monthly membership to FitFactory where i can track my weight loss and get diet advice for a monthly fee of 19.95 per month billed on the 15th day unless I cancell by calling 1-866-407-1022. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS CONSUMER TRANSACTION INVOLVES A NEGATIVE OPTION AND THAT I MAY BE LIABLE FOR PAYMENT OF FUTURE GOODS AND SERVICES, UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, IF I FAIL TO NOTIFY THE SUPPLIER NOT TO SUPPLY THE GOODS OR SERVICES DESCRIBED.

This is the small print from a tiny link, so small to be almost invisible on an ACAIBERRY website. It was super hard to read, it was so small, and I am so glad I did research before ordering this product. IT IS A SCAM!

Extreme Acai Berry

I have also fallen victim to this scam. I have ordered the free trial which arrived 14 days after ordering it. So, I didn't even had time to try the free trial when my account was charged the amount of $89.31 for their product. I have never seen their contract, it must been hidden somewhere and they must click it for you as you accepting it. Extreme Acai Berry is a scam, I think they should get sue by us all over the United States because of their deceptive behavior. I am planning to get my money back thru my credit card company, but if I don't get it I will start a lawsuit process in the court of North Miami Beach. And I think you should all do the same, and use all these feedbacks as proof of their scams.
The summons can be sent to:
Extreme Acai Berry
4650 South West 51sth Street
Bay 711
DAVIE, FLORIDA 33314

#201 - Ana Maria - 11/21/2008 - 12:09

learned my lesson

Acai is impossible to get here so I fell for this scam also. I requested my account be closed by phone and contacted my credit card company immediately. My credit card company has assured me that once you have requested the account be closed with this company any further charges are fraudulent. The charges will be reimbursed by the credit card company and the credit card company will go after them. Makes sense... only way to shut these guys down. Thanks for the email, I will requested that my account be closed this way also.

#202 - Bridget - 11/21/2008 - 13:13

Extreme Acai Berry

I did get my first free bottle of extreme acai berry and I cancelled right after I got the bottle because I wanted to try it in full before I decided to order. I called the 1-801-528-1391 number and cancelled my order immediately and no charge was sent to my bank. You do have to wait a little while on hold but if you call between 6-9 pm mountain standard time you will be able to reach a operator. I do like the product and I am losing weight so I will order another bottle when I can afford it.

#203 - Brittany Johnson - 11/21/2008 - 15:02

silly me

so i got suckered too. after i read all the blogs on this scam..i thought no not me!! yep it happened to me!! i called right away and said "umm...i want this cancelled ASAP!!" she says "um sorry maam..why? i said "because i didnt know i was going to pay 90bucks a month!!" she tried to say "well just return it" (but lucky me i read someones blog about no being able to return it) i said i heard you cant..then she basically said your right. and i just got the pills and they have already sent out another month and already charged my card..AAAHHHHH tick me off...what a load of crap....

-ANGEL :-[]

#205 - Angel - 11/21/2008 - 20:36

I got an idea!

Listen people, filing all sorts of complaints apparently doesn't work against these crooks as they appear to indeed have "marginally legit" reason to impose recurring charges on customer's credit card absent the explicit cancellation. What everyone needs is not a Better Business Buereau, FTC, etc., but "one-time" credit card. Someone mentioned something like that could be had in Walmart and other places. But check with issuer of your current credit card - a couple I got (one from Citi Bank and some other one) do offer *one-time* credit card numbers exactly for the purpose of secure internet shopping. You enter this number online instead of your original credit card number and your card gets charged, but only ONCE.

Now here is the plan: if any significant number of folks purchases $5 "free trial" in coordinated effort, that bloody company would have no choice but to stock up on their product to get ready to ship it since from their end they cannot detect if the credit card number given to them is original or just "one-time" one - the two are indistinguishable. You see, they play legitimate, they don't just charge your credit card and run, they still send you the product. Of course they buy it from someone for significantly less than 90 bucks, but surely they don't get it for free. After 14 days they will end up with a big batch of product ready for shipment and no money to pay for it. These folks are obviously greedy and in all likelihood they borrow money to pay for the stuff instead of reaching into their own pocket. Given enough number of participants such action may well bankrupt them.

Of course every participant has to agree to spend 5 bucks. Well I don't know about you, but I would love to make such investment just to piss them off if not drive them out of business! :)))

#206 - Michael - 11/21/2008 - 21:59

I can't believe that I got Screwed by these crooks, WHAT TO DO

Yes I have joined the ranks of the scammed. Don't delay in taking the following action.

1. CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARD NOW BY PHONE (it will take 5 - 10 days to get a totally new account and card number and all transactions from the cancellation date will be blocked)

2. IN THE EVENT OF MONEY BEING TAKEN ALREADY RAISE A DISPUTE ON THAT PAYMENT WITH THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY WHEN CANCELING AS ABOVE.

3. MAKE A FRAUD REPORT TO YOUR CREDIT CARD COMPANY.

4. YOU ARE UNLIKELY TO GET THROUGH ON THE PHONE NUMBER SUPPLIED SO E-MAIL YOUR CANCELLATIONS TO:

CUSTOMERSERVICES@NUBODI.COM (TELLING THEM TO ALSO CANCEL MEMBERSHIP WITH ACAI, NUBODI, PRICELIMBO, FITFACTORY AND ANY OTHER UNDERTAKING THAT THEY HAVE GIVEN OR SOLD YOUR DETAILS TO.) THE E-MAIL ADDRESS OF FIT FACTORY IS, www.fitfactory.com

Like so many other people I wouldn't take the tablets supplied no telling what these people may have sent to you.

Really pissed off Ron United Kingdom

#207 - Ronald Eldridge - 11/22/2008 - 07:41

"God Scam?"

This whole situation is ridiculous. I also got scammed and I never order free trials. I also got the price limbo charge and was outraged. My husband saw the charges to our account on our online statement and hit the roof. Literally, he was so mad that he drove me to the bank and made me explain to the manager what I did like I was some little kid or something. I felt foolish and embarrassed, not to mention the strain it put between my husband and I. Problem is, I like the stuff but the expense and scam value are not worth it. Good luck on getting your money back everyone. We deal with Wachovia and they have been absolutely wonderful about it.

#208 - Pam - 11/22/2008 - 11:05

Extreme AcaiBerry 1-877-350-8480 SCAM!! BEWARE

This company is a JOKE! I too, was suckered in to my FREE trial. The pills arrived 3 weeks after I ordered them, in a box with ABSOLUTELY NO DOCUMENTATION, not an invoice, not a phone number, no Terms and Conditions of the free trial, no written material whatsoever. Just a box, with styrofoam peanuts and the little bottle of pills. While the pills themselves tasted like a sweet tart candy (their only redeeming quality), they had ZERO effect. After a VERY long hold time, listening to their absurd music, a rep finally came on the line and CANCELLED my order. She had very poor communication skills, and when I asked who I could talk to regarding the lack on information in the package I received, she hung up on me. I can only HOPE that indeed my TRIAL is cancelled, and will notify my bank on Monday, just to be sure. BUYERS BEWARE!!

#209 - Rhonda - 11/22/2008 - 15:17

YAY!!!

thanks guys!!! I was gonna order then I saw the small print and exited before I put in my info.
I think I'll do what a few of you did, prepaid visa!!! :-D

I'll scam them for a chage, I wonder if it'll keep coming

#210 - Veronica - 11/22/2008 - 17:55

Shop around - locally

If anyone's still interested in trying Acai without worrying about billing from the predatory scammers, Target and Walgreens both have Acai capsules in their vitamins and supplements sections for about $10 or less for 60 pills.

It just seems like the same stuff without the added hassles.

#211 - tam - 11/22/2008 - 21:08

A Fool and Her $

Me, too. And, I unfortunately used my debit card. I emailed Oprah to let her know that her name was being used in a scam and I encourage everyone else to do the same. Maybe if enough of us complain to her.... >-(

#212 - Shannon - 11/22/2008 - 22:16

there's more

Not only is everything true that is listed in all these other reviews, but did anyone also get the scam for the fit-factory charge? $29.99/mo on the cc. When I finally got through to the phone number for the acai berry I asked them about the other cahrge I was told it was connected with the Acai Berry. It was no where to be found in the fine print because I READ the fine print and I was lucky enough to cancel 5 days before my 14 days were up (and yes it was a nightmare to try and get through to someone and they said they couldn't find me etc etc.) The nightmare does not end. I called the number for this fit-factory without getting through, and then got a return call on my answering machine stating that they had gotten a call from this number. Now they are closed so I ahve to wait until Monday. I'm contacting the cc company after reading all of these reviews to be sure they do not allow any other charges from EITHER scam.

#213 - Rhonda - 11/22/2008 - 22:35

Just goes to show.....

This scam is just proving how self conscious people are about there bodies no matter their size. It just sucks that these people are taking our hard earned cash while all they do is sit back and watch the numbers in their bank accounts grow. Not to mention that the trial bottle and the big bottle say 2 different ways the supplement should be taken. Probably why the trial doesn't ever work in the "14-day" period. Fuck all scamers, they should just grow up and get a real job. >-(

I am like most of you guys. I got sucked into the scam. I saw it on my balance statement from the bank. They are scammers. I am going to turn them over to the BBB in Arkansas immediately. I feel you guys pain, believe me!!

#216 - Leigh - 11/24/2008 - 09:37

Confused and frustated

I haven't been able to get through to either 001 877 350 8480 or 001 801 208 7485. All I get is a recorded message and then music and then nothing!!! Which when you're calling from England is very expensive. I realised just after I hit the button that I had made a terrible mistake in signing up for a free trial. I have cancelled my debit card but my bank says that they could still take the money as it is classed as a subcription not a bill payment. The Bank's fraud office don't want to know unless thay actually get money from me?? I have been advised the only way to protect myself is to cancel my bank a/c. I wrote to the address 4650 sw 51st St by International signed for on 11/11/08 but they still sent the tablets on the 18th funny how the arrive on the 14th day!! Is there a fax number/email address I could try??

#217 - Sam inU.K. - 11/24/2008 - 10:41

Thank you!

Honestly, I am very grateful to all of you, those who created this web site and those who shared their tragic experiences. Like all of you, I wanted to lose weight but never trusted 'magic' ads, except that this one apparently had the support of Oprah. So I thought: 'At laaaast! Something that might work'. So I as I was about to order their 14-days trial, I thought: 'Okay, calm down because you're about to enter your name and banking information. You've seen all the reviews, PROS and CONS of the product but what about the truthfulness nof the website itself?'. That's when I found your website which saved me money, time and energy. I feel terrible for you guys and don't know what to say. I empathize a lot. Finally, I'll keep exercising and eating properly, that's more economical and safer. It's true the ad is on FB, which IS a shame so you should counter-attack by creating a chain. Any idea on how to do that?

#218 - amelie - 11/24/2008 - 11:30

scammed beyond belief

i ordered the acai berry over 6 weeks ago.it didn't arrive, i called the number the extended my cancellation date, after another week no product, i finally reached a woman who yelled at me, called me a liar, said it was delivered on the 15th at 11 am. i gave her the name and conf. # of the person i spoke to, she said again it was false, she proceeded and charged my account while on the phone with me for 89.31, i verified that thru my bank.i asked for a supervisor, she said he was out.i plan to file a civil lawsuit against them for anyone else who has been scammed.

#219 - barbara glass - 11/24/2008 - 12:02

Yet another one

In my case I DID read the fine print of canceling withing 14 days and phoned immediately after the trial size arrived (assuming that was well within the 14 days. They said my 1st month had already been sent and there was nothing they could do. Clearly this poor girl has been instructed that under NO circumstances should the money be refunded. She offered two bottles - I kept saying, no, I want a refund. She finally offered to refund 1/2 the money. I cut my losses and agreed.
There MUST be some sort of consumer protection agency to stop this company!!

#220 - Shari Ulrich - 11/24/2008 - 13:32

I Beat them, I think?

I too ordered this product. I did notice in the small print that The trial period begins on the day they ship the
"free sample". I made a note of that date and even though I
had not received the free sample within the 14 days, I called the day before the 14 days expired and cancelled the monthly autoship. Well, they told me when I called to cancel that I should receive my free sample that day or the next as it was shipped Oct. 4th.
I again made a note of the date, waited 2 weeks and called them back. I was told that it shipped Oct. 4th. I was told I was being sarcastic when I said I could have walked from
Davie, FL to my home in TN in the month I had been waiting.
I asked to speak to a supervisor and was informed that I was speaking to the supervisor. He then gave me a USPS tracking number and told me to track the package which I did and called right back to let them know that the Post Office states that this tracking number does not exist.
Got a lady on the phone this time, I guess my file had been flagged by this time so she very politely offered to send another sample at no charge. Finally received both samples
in the mail today, 7 weeks after I ordered the first. Am now waiting to see if they have the nerve to charge my card for S&H on the second bottle which they assured me they wouldn't. Oh, by the way, this 14 day free trial bottle contains 14 capsules. The directions tell you to take 2 capsules twice a day. How dumb do they think people are? That's a three and a half day bottle. Now I'm scared to even try the stuff, but at least all they got out of me was $3.95 and a lot of aggravation. But I give as good as I get. Can't put too much over on this old granny!!!

#221 - Jane Lewis - 11/24/2008 - 18:52

Another sucker

I ordered the pills on November 12 (before reading all this)and still have not received them. I started to get worried because I did not receive a confirmation email and I'm two days away from the '14-day trial'. When I emailed the company they wrote me back saying they had no record of me and that I must have the wrong people. I had been searching online trying to find a website, phone number, ANYTHING so that I could contact them when I ran across this. I am so angry right now. I will contact my State Attorney General, the Better Business Bureau, and my credit card company in the morning. Something has to be done. This is absolutely ridiculous! I feel so embarrassed and taken advantage of.

#222 - Katie - 11/24/2008 - 23:52

Mrs.

Thank you solution #170 for listing how to cancel with pricelimbo and the rest. I canceled my cc before I got the 90 dollar charge. Still I feel like an idiot for being charged the 29.95 fit factory. I thought I had researched the product enough to be safe from a scam. What makes me feel even worse is I told my friends about this product and they signed up. I hope they go down!!! >-(

#223 - Rebecca - 11/25/2008 - 02:28

AS I am reading this site my credit card is being charged!! They need to be STOPPED

As I am reading this site I began to get nervous about this acaiberry I ordered and just recieved in the mail yesterday! To my disgust and surprise, my credit card was charged yesterday for $90!!! Is this FOR REAL!!!

I called my bank immediately! Has anyone been successful getting their $ back??

This is the last thing I needed right before the holidays!

#224 - Deborah - 11/25/2008 - 08:28

Got me too

I fell for the scam too. I was charged $89.31 for the pills, which I never received and I have a charge of $29.95 from Fit Factory, I have no idea who that is. I canceled my debit card and will be going to the bank Friday to file a dispute. How can this company get away with doing this sooo many times? Wonder if Oprah knows about this scam because I only knew about the product from watching her show.

#225 - Amy - 11/25/2008 - 11:34

this is all a scam

For all u people out there that says its not a scam ur stupid... i ordered mine on oct 6, on oct 20 they already charged my cc. that is not day 15 if u read the so called fine print it says ur card will be charged the 15th day... they told me that they would refund me the 89.31 a month ago i call ever day they say now theys a error on the account and only there corpoate office can fix it .They been telling me thia over a month and still no refund now my lawyer and the bank are going to show themmmmm. >-(

#226 - amber - 11/25/2008 - 13:40

Acai Berry Trial

The same thing happened to me, when i tried to telephone to cancel my call was answered by Greater Manchester Police ( UK). They told me to contact my bank and cancel the card which i did immediately.

#227 - mandy - 11/25/2008 - 15:32

CHEATED

Add me to the list. I am pretty savvy..and got taken. I rec. my product yesterday and wanted to learn more..found this site..and was aghast.
Here is what I got done in 24 hrs. The listed number is phony. If anyone ever would answer I would fall off my chair.
I scoured around and finally found the real name of this distrubution site....many different Boca Raton Fla. locations. SFL Nutrition LLC..Boca Raton I notified the Better Business Bureau of S Florida. I called the Fit Factory # 866-407-1022 talked to Jessie..cancelled them and he "said there would be a refund of the $29.95" We will see. I sent a email to Price limbo telling them to cancel immediately..do not know if it worth the time..but, could not find a number for them..will continue to look.
Went to my Bank this am. They will investigate the $89.95 and temporarily refund that amount. They will hold up on the $29.95 until we see if they do refund..and then if they don't they will go after them.
I then CANCELLED MY CARD..you must do that...they have your name and card...and it will not end..until they are out of business and you are broke! I think we ought to call Oprah..and have her go after them...they use her picture to lure you in..
Disgusted.

#228 - jan - 11/25/2008 - 15:51

GOT THRU

i CALLED THE NUMBER ....
877-350-8480 and they finally picked up...April (in a boiler room setting from the sound of it..)agreed to refund the entire amounts...and cancel all the charges etc....I lost my cool...and told them that I was not going to stand for this..and would shut them down (how , I don't know)...well, I have done all I can do..at the worst..I will be out a few bucks..but, I have a new card and I will NEVER AGAIN order such a thing on internet.. I hope you all get some satisfaction...Happy Thanksgiving...

#229 - jan - 11/25/2008 - 16:02

What a crock

So I first came across the Acai Berry free trial on some girl's site that I believe I saw on yahoo answers.

http://sarah.myweightlossjournies.com/index.php?t202id=6468&t202kw=L8Pr3

But as you can see, if you go there now, it has been removed for Terms of Service violation. How coincidental. That site linked me to the free trial site, where I signed up for both the Acai Berry Power 500 for the $3.95 S&H as well as Total Cleanse for $5.95 S&H. I did get both bottles of pills within the time they said I would, but I read the fine print and had every intention of canceling way before the cutoff date. I was aware that I would get charged the $80 something for the next bottle. But somewhere along the line I realized I had been signed up for FitFactory.com which I didn't recall reading about anywhere. So I called one of the many numbers and was able to cancel that easily. I called the 877-350-8480 number to cancel the Acai Berry pills and that's where the recording about the hours being extended and something about Mountain Standard Time comes up. But it turns out that number is not just for Acai Berry it's also for PriceLimbo.com, which you can see if you go to their website and look at the Terms - it's in the last paragraph. And they indicate that that is the number to call if any PriceLimbo.com affiliates have signed you up (meaning Acai Berry). I became concerned about PriceLimbo.com when I read somewhere in here that someone said they had been signed up for that too, when they chose the $1 shipping option. Well, I never chose that option, and the Terms for Acai Berry never said anything about getting signed up for FitFactory or PriceLimbo. So anyway, I called the number and they said they have nothing to do with it and that people were using their number without their permission - which I think is a crock.

As far as Total Cleanse, the number they gave just flat out doesn't work. They have an email address on the site, which I sent a cancellation email to just for the record. They also have a live chat thing you can call which I've read from other people complaining, works if you wait long enough. So when I saw the number didn't work I looked Total Cleanse up online and saw all the people lodging complaints so at that point I called my cc company to get a new card. So hopefully I am protected against them trying to charge me in the future - although the cc company rep said sometimes the charges get through anyway (I don't know how that's possible) so it's wise to always keep an eye on your credit card statement.

What's funny is I haven't even tried the acai berry pills. I did take a couple of the Total Cleanse pills and I don't know yet if they're worth anything.

Anyway, here's a list of bogus numbers I called for Acai Berry:
877-350-8480 (only one that really works if you wait, yet they don't seem to know anything)
801-528-1391
877-407-1022 (i think that worked for FitFactory)
800-903-3002
877-859-1105
866-695-9950
801-208-7490
801-208-7485

And for Total Cleanse the 866-320-0038 number doesn't work, and that's the number that will show up on your credit card statement. On the BBB they list SFL Nutrition, LLC as being the company name for Total Cleanse and when you call them they give you a different number (786-554-2446) that doesn't work either (go figure).

These companies are in league together. It's all a total scam. Make sure you get cancellation confirmation numbers, names, and employee numbers. And definitely change your credit card #.

also scammed but fighting

They took the $89.31 out of my account before I even received the free sample so I didn't know at that time what they were doing. It takes along time to get through by phone, if you can stand to hear the very unprofessional music. I have spoken to them several times and even that's hard with the strong accents but I always get told the same thing, that it takes 14 days. Well today I informed them that it's been 22 days since they first told me that and I have a cancellation number and a reference number but it does me no good. I called my Attorney Generals office and filled out a consumer complaint on them. I also called my bank and got new debit cards. They have tried to get more but it was declined. They even emailed me to have the problem fixed so they could take more. HA, I don't think so.Something needs to be done about this!

#231 - Lauren Mayes - 11/25/2008 - 19:13

Got smart

I sent off for my free trial and when I received it, I couldn't find information on where I could order more if I wanted to.

Got smart, after the fact, and googled Extreme Acai and found many horror stories. The upshot is that I canceled my cc before there were any outlandish charges made by this scam company.

I've been buying on the internet since 1993 and you'd think by now I would know to always check things out first. Well, I definitely will from now on.

My thanks to all who posted warnings. Because of these warnings, I got off pretty easily.

#232 - Caroline - 11/25/2008 - 20:11

Me too

Most of your stories apply to my experience. I've been meaning to cancel my "subscription" to Acai. I didn't have a huge sense of urgency, as I was dumb enough to guess that the "extra" bottles I was being sent each month were only costing me in the $25.00 - $30.00 range, like something from a health food store. Eek! I let it go three months, and now I'm out almost $300.!!! Bad, bad, bad. Now, I have to get a new credit card, I'm sure, as most of you others have had to do. I've decided it's best not to order things online. Once your information is in cyberspace, it's fair game. Good luck to all of you - we'll need it.

#233 - Melanie - 11/26/2008 - 10:34

complete ripoff

Rip off!! You bet!!
I was charged $4.85 for it to be shipped to Canada...I received the sample 3 1/2 weeks later...in the VERY small(approx. 2"x3") slip inside the package, and in writing that required a magnifying glass to read it, it said they would bill me and send me a full bottle in 2 weeks from the time I ordered it. After trying to call them for 3 days I finally got through in the evening..they said they had already billed me over a week before but had not shipped it out. When I told them that I had never authorized the second bill they said they would refund my $$$..which was $112.98 Canadian..however it would be 2 weeks before they could refund it...3 weeks later I still have not been refunded..I am contacting my credit card and refusing to accept their charges..I am concerned that they have my credit card number.

EXTREME ACAI RIP-OFF

SCAM! *** SCAM! ***SCAM!

Infuriated by this fraudulent company. I fell for the deceiving advertisement, “FREE trial offer” online and paid 3.95 shipping/handling. A few weeks after that, I was charged 89.31, and received 2 more bottles that I didn’t even want. I wasn't even given a choice if I wanted this, they just billed my credit card. I was completely victimized by this company, along with hundreds, maybe thousand of other people. My checking account actually bounced from their charge, creating overdraft fees from my bank. Couldn’t get a hold of this misleading company, but when I finally did, they were rude, inpatient, and refused to help me, told me to read the “fine print” then hung up. I was appalled.

These numbers and contact info are helpful. I plan to call and get my money back. But this cannot continue. THEY WILL BE REPORTED.

WE WILL GET OUR MONEY BACK!!! VOICE YOUR OPINION. STAND UP AND TAKE ACTION. REPORT FRAUD AND UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES.
WE WERE ALL SCAMMED AND WE ALL DESERVE OUR MONEY BACK! FIGHT TO GET A REFUND.FIGHT TO PUT THEM OUT OF BUSINESS.

THEY ARE GOING DOWN...

EXTREME ACAI BERRY IS AN EXTREME RIP-OFF!!!

#235 - kayla - 11/29/2008 - 00:44

Cancel your card

I fell for this scam and I called to cancel. They guy on the phone was very nice and gave me a cancellation number. It is a false sense of satisfaction. The next day, there was a charge on my cc. I think the best thing to do is call and cancel your credit card. That is the only way to be sure. I even had to change my phone number because I was getting calls from a 630 number everyday and they were hanging up. This just started happening after I ordered the stupid berries. I'm glad I didn't try them yet, because who knows what's in the pills if the marketing is this slimy. Lesson learned!

#236 - Sara - 11/29/2008 - 18:12

Yup fell for it too

Unbelievable! I never fall for this and yet, I have now. I just ordered and then when I received no confirmation, I scoured the site and found the terms. I am gutted as I am in the UK and paid by Debit. I sent them an email and will call tomorrow (it is Sunday night here). I feel so utterly stupid. I will cancel my debit card but I am scared that a previous poster said that that won't work a it is a subscription. However, I did not leave my bank detail as it is a Visa debit so, fingers crossed. I jut feel so utterly silly falling for this (via friggin Facebook as well!). Just told my husband and got the rolling eyes look :oops:

What can I say, been stupid, bought a few things on the net and thought this trial sounded good and that not much could go wrong with a small payment like that (also thought it was a UK site because of the Union Jack flag).

Been had. Utter bastards!

#237 - Carp - 11/30/2008 - 17:24

Thanks!

I was researching to see if the acai berry extract I bought at Target was the same as this Extreme Acai. From what I saw it is, I came extremely close to ordering it but stopped to read the terms, then found this site. I tried the bottle from Target and doubled the dosage, it "cleansed" me alright! So maybe it is the same thing. It didn't have the same effect with the suggested dosage. So if you want it, go to Target or any other drug store. It was around 8.00 I think. Another cleanser and something that helps is said to help with cancer is Essaic tea. Cayenne pepper, cinnamon supplements and liquid vitamin B is also worth researching. Thanks!

a huge scam `~~~~~~~~~~~~is an under satement~~~~~~~~~~~

i saw extreme acai berry on a very small screen with all the hoopla about loosing weight i fell prey and to my surprise 14 days later i was charged the $89.31 i called and cancelled and had to wait about 2 months to get myt money back but i got it....please be advised dont buy that crap///.... >-(

Cancelling with Customer Service

It's worth the time spent on the 800 number provided by these scamsters to cancel this product. The agent tried to argue me out of my decision, and I had to get shall we say, "firm" with her. It only took twenty minutes for me to get through to an agent. It was worth the wait.

#240 - Nancy Kessler - 12/02/2008 - 14:50

Cancel your credit card!!

I ordered the "free sample" about a week before I left on a cruise. I still hadn't received it when I returned 7 days later, so I figured that something didn't go through on the internet. Boy, was I mistaken... I received the sample bottle finally about 3 weeks after I ordered it, went on to my online banking and they had already charged me for the $89.31. I tried to call to dispute since I hadn't even received the sample when they charged me, but I had NO luck reaching anyone. Just eternally on hold. I hung up and called my bank, the person I spoke with at my bank knew all too well about this acai berry scam. He said the only way I was going to be assured that they didn't charge me again was to cancel my card. What a pain... >-(

#241 - Katrina - 12/02/2008 - 15:40

CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARD THAT YOU GAVE THEM IMMEDIATELY!!!

They cannot auto bill you on a cancelled credit card!!!!

#242 - Carol - 12/03/2008 - 10:38

Acai Berry

I have to say I too was mislead. I didn't read the fine print as I was in a hurry to just go ahead and get the product. Of course as I ordered it I was thinking that this was way tooo good to be true, but like a sucker I ordered anyway. However, I have to say unlike the other people who had a problem with canceling, I had no problems! I just called and told them I didn't want to spend $90 a month on these pills and they said ok. So we will see next month if I get billed. Hope not! >-(

#243 - Jennifer - 12/03/2008 - 18:43

Total Crap - Dont fall for it - Extremeacaiberry is extreme scam

Free trial is just 14 capsules, not 14 day trial..
Please use only 1 use virtual card, and also set limit so that it cannot be charged again.

Its a total waste of time and money!

#244 - Ajay - 12/03/2008 - 19:13

Mrs

I to, tried this product and while it tasted like candy, it didn't do anything. I called them within a couple of days and talked to customer service. My subscription has been cancelled and I will be watching my credit card statements to be sure. Thankfully, TD Visa have had numerous complaints about this company and they are monitoring it and also advising their clients what to do. I now deal with a site that is 100% Acai juice and it is fantastic, doesn't taste all that great but so long as it works, who cares. If anyone is interested, answer this comment and I will be happy to give you the link.

#245 - Lynn - 12/04/2008 - 17:48

scammed by Extreme Acai Berry

Oh my gosh! I wish I read these reviews earlier. I also was scammed out of $89.31 by this freakin' company. I tired cancelling before my 14 trial period was up but no one at their company would answer any of my daily calls until the 17th day. Its like they know whose calling and wait until your trail period expires then they answer their phones.
But if anyone was scammed it is me. I never even tried the trial tablets they send me because I read the ingredients on the bottle and it told me nothing except that it contained sucralose in it and that ingredient is toxic as like the chemical "aspartame" in diet foods and let alone I never received the monthly supply I so-called ordered. I never knew that there was a bind if I got the free trial. I barely can afford my day to day routines and now I'm out $89.31.
To anyone thinking of ordering from these people, DO NOT. IT IS A SCAM BIG TIME.

#246 - Kalena - 12/05/2008 - 21:57

thanks a lot, I m saved

actually, I was thinking to order that trial. I entered all details but thought the trouble doing that, so I didn't put my credit card in that.but next day that f***** called me n said lost of thing its good and easy so I gave him my debit card info. that night I came across these reviews and tried to call customer care.. I wasn't charged at all so I canceled my debit card.. I m happy now.. I found you can buy it at amzon with arnd $10.

#247 - kalpesh - 12/05/2008 - 22:15

File complaint with Bank, Credit Union, Federal trade commission, Attorney general

I, like all of you fell for the hype and got myself :-(

into this Extreme Acai scan, I did not read the fine print and it cost me 89. dollars, I got on the phone, called my bank and cancelled the card, they are filing a grieveince in hopes of getting my money back, I filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, and the better business bureau in Florida, and I called that sleeze at the company and gave him a piece of my mind. The Attorney General is next.
You know, what goes around comes around, and one day he will hve to pay the piper for his greed and criminality!!!
OJ Simpson got his yesterday, and so will this lower than low thief!!! Do what you can to stop this dude, and his scam!!! :-)

#248 - Barbara - 12/06/2008 - 10:08

mrs

I too odered the acai berry free trial, i still find it hard to believe how stupid i was, i read the full article and nothing was there to surgest i would be charged $89 a month, so i put in my details and ordered them, after i hit the button with my card details on a drop down box appeared telling me of the monthly charges, i went on the phone straight away to cancel them but could not get through, i sat and cried for hours, thinking how stupid i,d been, and how angry my huby would be for being so silly, especially as i,m the type of person who always says, if it seems too good to be true, it brobably is, i,v stopped a few people from sending money to different scams from winning holidays if you send x amount of money etc, so the following day i went to the bank and cancelled my card and got a new one sent to me with a different number, so yes i got my 2 week free trial, and managed to stop them taking any more money, but the stress was terrible. i,ll never be as silly again, i hope.....

#249 - tracey 1212 - 12/06/2008 - 10:37

Another One

I was sooooo mad today when I figured out I was scammed by this company! Here's one for you. I received my trial pills and a full bottle of pills in the same box. No shipping receipt, no bill, no nothing in the package explaining the plan or how to cancel. I opened both bottles as the writing on the outside was different. The pills in each bottle even look different, one had green pills the others were brown. So, I tried to call in and get my money back. Got a very rude and curt customer service person that explained their no money back policy, etc. etc. etc. I feel so stupid for being scammed!!!!

#250 - Melissa - 12/06/2008 - 18:01

Mrs.

SCAMMED BIG TIME.

Hi I have never been scammed before I guess I now join the rest of the 250 people who have been scammed. The problem I have is banks in Australia do not cancel Credit cards and even if they do once you have given your credit card details they can keep billing you every month until the Company stops charging your credit card. Not only that with the exchange rate I paid $137.00 and have so far only got my free trial for the 14 days. My question is for anyone who has got scammed outside the US and if they could not cancel their credit card what did they do to get out of this situation. Besides with the time difference I have to either stay up till 12.30am to ring them or wake up at 6am to call them. Please help me sort this problem out if any of you can.

#251 - Gillian - Australia - 12/08/2008 - 07:26

They sign you up for other products also

I just received my credit card statement and was very unhappy to find out that like everyone else on this website I was charged $89.31 with no recourse of getting it back. NOT ONLY THAT there were two other charges for pricelimbo.com and fit-fac.com that also charged my credit card. When I called I was told that I was signed up for those also and had to call them to cancel. I ask how I got signed up for these and was told by acai berry representatives that I must not have clicked on all of the offers that I did not want it. This is a total scam!!!!!!!!! >-(

#252 - Becky - 12/08/2008 - 12:47

ACAI scam

PLEASE DO NOT ORDER FROM THESE PEOPLE! THEY SCAM YOUR MONEY AND DON\'T OFFER A REFUND! STAY AWAY!!!!

#253 - Mai - 12/08/2008 - 12:55

Add me to the list that has been scammed

Oh why couldn't I have found this website before I ordered the free trial on 11/3. I was billed 89.13 on 11/17 before I ever received the trial product. I called the day the 89.13 went through my account and was told to return the product unopened. When the product finally came, I marked refused on the package and put it back in the mailbox. I called today and was told there was no way a credit could be issued without a tracking number, since no paperwork, no tracking number. I'm reporting this company to the Better Business Bureau here in Florida. The company is located in Davey, Florida.

#254 - Cheryl - 12/08/2008 - 13:37

Don't accept no refund response.

Definitely a big scam. I just got off the phone with their customer service department. To begin with they told me according to the terms there would be no refund. Then I threatened to call the Attorney General and I told them that what they were doing was a huge scam and that they would get shut down eventually. I was offered half of my $89.31 charge back and I told them to forget it and that I would call the Attorney General. I have now been promised a total refund after I call them with a return tracking number. I guess time will tell as to whether I actually get my money back but you can guess who I'll be calling if I don't.

#255 - xWinnie - 12/08/2008 - 18:09

Scammed for the first time

I'm right there with all of you. Unfortunately I put the trial on my debit card and I NEVER even received the trial - but then I get an over draft fee from the bank because of the charge of $89.31 from my account.

I am absolutely furious and they say that they are going to credit my account (we shall see). I am just so furious at myself for falling for this bunch of crap!!!

#256 - Sarah - 12/08/2008 - 18:52

This is the biggest scam!!!! The not only are charging me 90.00 a month they signed me up for another company taking more money off of my credit card! There is no number to send a written cancellation and the corporate office number that they gave me does not work!!!BEWARE!!! I am not going to take the pills I am too afraid of whats really in them!!!! The are complete crooks!!!!!!

#257 - Heather - 12/09/2008 - 13:35

scammed

Hi i have been looking at this product for awhile now thinking about doing it but i didnt have a credit card then i decided to get a visa so i thought why not try this product what a mistake that was i got my free trial in the mail this morning with a letter saying that i would automatically be charged $89.31 to my credit card account which was not specified when i suscribed. So i tried ringing the number to cancel it was a non existant number so then i didnt no what to do so i was trying to figure out what the website i got it from also when i was trying to order it it told me my credit card was declined so i didnt actually think it went through but it obviously did as i got the trial this morning and i looked on my bank account and sure enough they had taken money out of my account. any way i came accross this site i have emailed them from an email address that was on the site to get them to cancel it and i have also cancellled my creditcard but they bank people said they could still somehow access my account so cancelling the card may not help but i cancelled it any way so hopefully i dont get charged cross fingers.

Meg

#258 - meg - 12/09/2008 - 17:29

YOU BUY YOU MIGHT AS WELL CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARD NOW!!

You have to cancel within 14 days from ordering the product to stop being charges. But I did not get the product delivered to me until after that time frame. Not only did they charge me for a full months worth of product, I had not even tried yet, they also are linked to other companies that started putting charges on my account. I have found two other charges on my account out of Utah that are linked to this company. I was told that these are yearly subscription fee's to be able to access certain websites that offer vitamin products. I NEVER would of caught these additional charges if my husband and I had not sat down and gone thru the charges together. I would suggest filing a fraud claim with your credit card agency, contacting the better business bureau and look at your bank statement closely for any weird charges put on your account.

Could have been a Extreme Acai victim

I should have read this site before i fell into the scamming fly trap of Extreme Acai Berry! After makeing that order for a free trial in London UK yesterday, I tried to contact them but at this number +18012087485 but i guess it was too early in the morning for them to process anything, i had then no other choice but to call my bank first thing this morning and cancel my card this will stop them from diving into my account, i didn\'t even want a free trial after reading this site- It\'s true that nothing in life is free.. :-[]

#261 - Carol - London - 12/10/2008 - 09:56

Still being scammed

I ordered the free trial and hadn't received it yet. It just so happens that the day they charged me $90 I saw the charge pop up on my bank statement (I USED DEBIT)!! So I called them the exact same day and the $90 bottle hadn't shipped yet so they said they would refund my money (after 1/2 hour of threats and yelling) 14 days latter. This was on October 24th, its now December 11th and I've called three more times and still no refund. Whoever came up with this scam is surely going to hell. >-(

#262 - HATE THIS COMPANY - 12/11/2008 - 13:59

EXTREME ACAI BERRY ARE SCAM!!!!!

Hi I just CAN'T BELIEVE THOSE PEOPLE AT THE Extreme Acai Berry company... I recieved my trial bottle on Dec. 1 2008. sO I thought I had 14 days to cancel my order. So I thought I had until Dec. 14th to cancel!!! I totally forgot about it until today after work I went to the mailbox and recvd a package of their stupid 30 day bottle. Thank god I'm within my 14 days trials. So I called them right away only to hear them say NO MONEY BACK. Even tried to reason with them telling them there's a lot other companies who charge only 39.99. I would agreed to pay that amount. They said no so I said I'll send the bottles back the trial (I didn't even take) and the 30 day crap. They said NO. I told them I will file fraud charges and contact BBB in Florida. The agent then hung up on me. So I called back another agent said your order has been cancelled and I told him I want a refund!!! NO again but we'll send you a 2nd bottle for free. I asked him WHY WOULD I WANT 2ND BOTTLE OF CRAP I DIDN'T EVEN USE THE TRIAL!!! Still saying they can't refund me back I hung up the phone and called my bank... They cancelled the card and file a report. I also told my bank I'm looking at a website with many people filing charges on this company!!! my bank told me that they work with federal trade comission and will most likely get my money back. THE CHARGES WERE 89.31 FROM ACAI BERRY AND ALSO AS I WAS LOOKING AT THIS WEBSITE I NOTICE THE FITFACTORY KEPT COMING UP. SO I HAD MY BANK LOOK IF I WAS ALSO CHARGED AND I WAS FOR 29.95. SO NOW THERE'S TWO FRAUD CHARGES ON MY ACCOUNT. SO WHEN YOU CALL YOUR BANK MAKE SURE YOU ASK ABOUT BOTH CHARGES ONE FOR 89.31 AND ANOTHER ONE FOR 29.95!!! CLAIM FRAUD. They said it would take about 90 days but in mean time I can have the money back... Hopefully I NEVER have to pay them A PENNY!!! I HATE THEM!!! I HOPE THEY GET SHUT DOWN AND HAVE TO REBURM. EVERYBODY WHO WERE CHEATED OUT OF THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY. Now I'm going to file a claim to BBB in Florida. Thank you people for the address!!! I won't know what to do if I didn't find this site!!! Happy Holidays!! I hope this help...

#263 - Sylvia - 12/11/2008 - 22:09

they are stealing!!

They are supposed to return my $89. because I cancelled the order but they arent giving it to me. It's been a month already. I've called several times and they say the same thing over and over that their "corporate office will be contacting me in 3-5 business days." Yet the call never comes. Meanwhile, $89 is a lot of f*ing money! I want it back! Those bastards!!

#264 - Stephanie Alvarado - 12/12/2008 - 14:36

entreprenuer

The Extreme Acai Berry Co. are scammers. They have pop ups that say you can recieve a free trial for $3.95 and if you try to exit this page they then offer you the deal for $1.00.telling you its a 14 day free trial.But they delay the shipping so you don't recieve it in that time frame and then they bill your credit card while you are still waiting for it to arrive! They say they are members of the BBB(Better Business Bureau). I am going to file a complaint against them.
As for the person in Australia just get the last four didgits of your credit card changed and they won't be able to charge you anymore.Notify your card holder or the bank where you do business if you used a debit card about what is going on. If you have to just say your credit card was stolen and they will issue you a new one with new nos.
All you people who got the scam contact the BBB!!!
Otherwise lets all be a little more careful when jumping on the band wagon for weight problem solutions.The Acai berry is a good supplement.The Extreme Acai Berry Co is not.Here is the phone no.in case anyone wants it. 1-877350-8480.You can also print out all the scam complaints you see here and send them along with your complaint to the BBB and the Attorney General.You can go online to get the addresses.When you call hte Acai berry co. phone no. ask them where they are located.I was told it was Fl. and Utah.

I got a email from them saying that this is what Oprah backed, so I thought I would try it for $3.95. I got a bottle of extreme acai berry which was\'nt what I was expecting and latter on got a full bottle which was a charge of $89.31, that I did\'nt have. It does\'nt seem to work and it is a huge scam. I hope people stop falling for it. They would\'nt take it back..

Add me to the pile.....

Unbelievable,these Acai people. How I wish I had found this site before I ordered the "free trial", but, as so many of you, I have never had any trouble ordering over the Net and I've been doing it for years. Like everyone here, didn't see the "fine print", never agreed to monthly shipments, was told they "couldn't find my number" when I finally got through (on another phone number provided on a similar complaint site). I got charged $89 on 12/05 and another $95 on 12/10, FIVE DAYS LATER. TWO charges in five days??? The bastards aren't even sticking to their 30-day ship BS. I just got off the phone with my Visa card bank and have closed the account. Those Acai mf'ers won't be able to make another charge on me. But, although I will file the dispute forms for both charges, it sounds like I won't be recovering the $184 those bastards stole from me. I am ashamed of any human being who can intentionally do this to other human beings. I only hope that their potential buyers see this site before they give them their info for the trial. Good luck all.

Mrs

I am so bloody angry. I have to admit to being suckered into this scam too.
I have tried cancelling the shipping of these 'pills' and hit a birck wall. I am in the UK so have had problems with the telephone number, but,
I tried calling the company (no use)
I have tried putting my cancellation in writting and I have been in contact with my bank..
ALL USELESS..
It seems there is nothing I can do to stop this company taking my money until they get tired of it..
I feel such a fool for being taken in like this and just like Gillian (above),, I am at my wits end.
I wish I had seen this site before I ordered my 'free trial'
I can only hope this company gets what is coming to them and they are forced to payback all the money they have stolen from people around the world. :-(

SCAMMED

I received my free 14 day trial of Acai Berry. The trial bottle said that there were 15 pills on the label and according to the instructions said to take 2 pills before each meal. How was that a 14 day trial???? I called the number on the VERY LITTLE piece of paper in the package and was hung up on after waiting 25 minutes. The first charge for $89.31 appeared on my bank card two days later. I called the number on my bank account and told them that I wanted to cancel the order. I was told that I would receive a refund back within 10-14 business days and if the package came to me, to just send it back. Well, that was November 14th and I still haven't received my credit, I never received the package and they charged my account AGAIN!!!! When I called back, they told me that me that they don't show any sign that I contacted them before November 25th!!!!!! I asked to speak with a supervisor who told me that the only thing he could do was send me a free shipment of the same pills that I had cancelled. I told him that the trial package smelled like Flintstone vitamins and they didn't work, why would I want to get more of these and how would they be free when I had already paid for them???

When I asked where the original credit was, they told me that I should see it this week. BBB and the Attorney General can't do anything because they already have numerous complaints but can't reach anyone who can do anything about this. The BBB in Nebraska just took my information.

Acai scam big time!

So i tried the "free trial just pay for shipping" acai berry pills. Well there was no way that I saw that these idiots signed me up for a membership. Not only that THEY signed me up for a "free 14 day trial membership" (without my knowledge) to fit-fac.com and that site charged me 29.95 for a membership since i didnt cancel. F***ers!!!! I called and got that membership cancelled and almost a month later got my 29.95 back. The Extreme ACAI berry sent me a 14 day trial bottle and charged me 89.31 and supposedly are giving me my money back this week (after a month of calling, emailing, calling, emailing them)! I called the number on the bottle and finally got a hold of someone 1-877-350-8480 and they are supposedly giving me my money back this week! I pray and hope! My bank though went into their website and said everything they did and claimed on their website is LEGAL and that technically if i didnt cancel within the two week trial period, that they do NOT have to give me my money back. Sooooo my bank said they couldnt do anything about giving me my money back after their "research" of their websites. But so that i wont get anymore charges they had to cancel my debit card and send me a new card! :-[]

Now that night when i tried to order this extreme acaiberry it said that my info didnt go through so i got tired and closed it all up and went in and ordered the acai maxx. I didnt know that the orginal order actually went through so i got charged 5.95 for this other bottle and then it seems like a week later i got charged 86.35!!!!!! >-(

I have emailed them, cancelled my orders and membership, barely got a confirmation email saying the membership was closed, but nothing on refunding my 86.35. My bank still cant do anything and i feel like an idiot. I didnt have 205.61 to spend in the first place and i got charged all of these stupid scam stuff and i still cant get the charges refunded and my bank tells me they technically have 30 days legally to refund my money and that they dont HAVE to refund my money if i didnt cancel in the 2 week trial period. I didnt notice this scam until i started seeing all of these charges in my account so of course i failed to cancel within the 2 week trial perod!!! >-(

I hate my bank right now because the original site i ordered them from didnt have all this information and the site they put on my bank charges conviently has all the disclaimer BS! >-(

So it pisses me off because i dont know what to do. I'm hoping the 89.31 will get refunded this week! I hope and pray for that cuz all of these charges threw my expenses off big time and i'm behind on other payments because of all this money i got charged.

I had to email cancel@acaiberrymaxx.com to cancel the membership and it took 3 weeks to get the confirmation of the cancelled membership but no info on my refund. But guess what I live in Dallas Texas and on their website it has an address
Mailing Address:

FX Supplements.com
916 113th Street Suite B
Arlington, TX 76011

Which i mapquested it and its 30 min away from my home!!!!!! I'm totally gonna go to their office and see what they say to me! Ha! I bet its not even a real place! We'll see! I'll let you know what happened cuz i'm going TODAY!!!! :-P

They also have this customer service email address: service@fxsupplements.com
This is all for the acai Maxx pills (86.35 charge)!

So i hope some of that info helps you guys!

I will get my money back even if i have to lie just like them!

For the extreme acaiBerry(89.31 charge) guys i have this number from the bottle 1-877-350-8480 and on my bank info i have this number 866-518-6901. SO if u just ordered the extreme acaiBerry one try either one of those numbers ok!

Good luck all!!!!!!!!! :-D

Worried

I placed my order on the 24th of November. Like everyone else, the confirmation page (once registered) said the product would be delivered within 4 to 6 days. Since I am in Canada, I waited till the 1 of Dec. I called the number on the confirmation page and they said you should recieve it in a day or two. Waited till the 3rd and when I did not get anything I called them again and they said that there was a problem and they would ship another free trial bottle. I called them back on the 10th (when i did not get anything)and the gentelman who spoke to me was quite rude. Initially he said well we can extend your trial period and charge you for the next shipment sometime in January. I got really mad and told him off saying how can he extend the trial period when i did not have the product to try. So he asked if i wanted to cancel future billings and I told him to cancel the whole thing. So he gave me a confirmation number for cancelling the order.
Now what worries me is that somewhere along, I read that we get registered automatically in Pricelimbo and Fitfactory. I did get an email from PriceLimbo welcoming me and gave me a link to go and register. I did not register. My concern is now will i get charged by PriceLimbo and FitFactory, even if i did not register with them. Can someone who knows the answer to this let me know.

#272 - ap - 12/15/2008 - 14:59

mad as hell

I too was scammed for $130 (89.31 plus 29.95 twice for an association with some type of fit thing that I have NO idea about. They credited one of the 29.95 charges (I hope) but now I am just furious. I did not register for anything. I feel like an idiot. The phone call center people were obviously out of country. Whoever is in charge of this scam better be wondering about the outcome of this robbery. :-[]

#273 - diana - 12/15/2008 - 20:42

Same problem for me as most of you had. I received my free trial the day after I needed to cancel if I didn't want anymore. Called and cancelled, got the confirmation number and the charge is on my Visa ccount for a full order. Called and pretty much wasted my breath. Anyone else out there don't go to this company's product....it's a comlete rip off. I also was charged for the "newletter" that I also did not sign up for. I've cancelled my credit card and had it transferred to a new one. If they try charging me in future it will be returned. To Worried" you might want to try that. Just call the number on the back of your card and explain the situation and that you want the card cancelld to any further charges.

Contact with Acai Berry- my story

Hi all,
Long story short, i am in the UK and was scammed almost a month ago. Trick was that i paid in UK Pounds so the terms were different.
1. Got the 'free trial' after the 14 days
2. Was charged $89.31 on the 13th Day of free trial
3. Called them and demanded a refund stating they hadn't kept up with their end of the deal, why should i? Oh and after i cancelled the monthly, 4 days afterwards they sent me my month's supply. I sent it straight back.
4. Finally after trying to call 4 times international charge rates - i spoke to Kristine and she said refund time was 14 working days without having to send the product back from the UK but i told her it was on its way but had no way to track it.
5. On the 15th day i called again and was told that her supervisor was in a meeting but she would put a rush on it for 3-5 working days.
6. Today was the 5th working day and nothing. I have just spoken to the same woman again and shouted at her. I explained the facts and the story yet again for 20 mins and she finally said i would be refunded in 72 hours. Time will tell yet again but i will let you know....
I have also just discovered that although the UK people scammed were not always signed up to Fit factory, we are to Price limbo automatically. Call them on the same numbers as the others and get that cancelled too. If there were any way to take these scammers to court, please let me know as i have spent a fortune on calls to the US and want to see these people crash and burn. In the Uk, we would get an expose done through the media.... let's fight this and warn as many people as possible because although nothing is free in life this is quite a price to pay to try a new product.

#275 - Natalie - 12/16/2008 - 10:47

SCAM!!!

I unfortunately and stupidly fell for this scam. I signed up and everyday afterwards I received phone calls from 3rd parties asking me to buy their stuff. I said no I'm not interested, and what did they do? They charged my credit card for tons of shit. $50+ in purchases I did not make. Sleeping pills and I don't even know what else. I never even received these items I didn't purchase. I called the numbers listed beside these charges on my credit card statement and NONE of them worked. I was also charged the $89 whatever for a second bottle of Acai Berry. I was told I had to call within 30 days, but the number they gave me was "no longer in service." They won't refund my money. I had to cancel my credit card to prevent further stealing. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS BULLSHIT SCAM

#276 - Amber - 12/17/2008 - 12:24

Multiple charges to credit card from 3 companies

I have never signed up for something like this and now never will EVER again. Call immediately to cancel your Extreme Acai Berry because you will be charged $90 before you ever get your "trial" bottle. Then they automatically sign you up for Pricelimbo.com for $8.51/month and Fit Factory for $29.95/month. I just noticed these random charges on my CC bill after 3 months of being billed. I am so mad and embarrassed that I would ever sign up for something like this...nice free trial.
Price Limbo's # is 1-877-350-8480
Fit Factory's # is 1-866-407-1022

#277 - Casey - 12/17/2008 - 19:31

wife got scammed with the rest of you all

she ordered on Nov 18 free trial $1 ship no obligation. Gets order on Dec 8th with no paperwork ( 22 days later )Then on Friday Dec 12 gets another bottle this one says "trial on it". So i check the credit card and yes there is the $89.31 charge liek the rest of you. I too chased numbers down and talked with credit card company. I actually found a number and got an answer. I did get our account cancelled with a cancellation # but they refused to give us a refund since the bottle was opened. After explaining even if the page my wife ordered from had a 14 day cancellation we did not get a bottle for 22 days and it was the larger, charged bottle first and then 27 days later we get the Trial bottle, both packages with no paperwork. How is a person suppose to cancell if they dont get anything to cancel in 14 days. At best it is one of the worst ever for deception, but I believe at best it is Fraud and Theft. I am not done yet my friends so everyone keep writing your little story. I believe this is criminal and maybe even federally since it crosses so many state lines. Who knows maybe one day soon someone will be contacting you for a criminal investigation or even a class action law suit. I am also going to dispute this charge with my credit card company. I am not giving these idiots a dime they dont legally deserve.

ACAI SCAM

I wish I had seen this website before I order the trial version of these pills. I received two reqular size bottles approx 2 weeks before the trial bottle even showed up and then noticed a charge on my account for $89.31. I called to find out why I got charged well of course I got the run around that if they hadn\\\\\\\'t heard from me during the trial period that they send out an order that\\\\\\\'s b.s. I got the regular size bottles before I even got my trial size. Well they\\\\\\\'re tellimg me to ship them back and that they will give me a refund we\\\\\\\'ll see what happens. THIS IS A BIG SCAM DO NOT GET CAUGHT UP IN IT

#279 - Dorei - 12/18/2008 - 13:05

Thanks to this website, I stopped the charges in time (fingers crossed)!!!!

Thankfully I happened along to this website and called to cancel the credit card. I was afraid to let it go at that. I was afraid I would receive bills in the mail since I cancelled their payments! I called 801-208-7485, a number I read from above. I spoke to a woman who cancelled any payments for me. I then chose to tell her that I was disgusted with how shady they are. She agreed with me!! She then told me that she didn't agree with her employer's tactics either, but needed the work! I thanked her for her honesty and wished her a Merry Christmas. I actually felt sorry for her despite my own circumstances, and felt so blessed not to be in her shoes!! I then called Fit Factory at 866-407-1022 to cancel any payments there. Not as nice of a woman, but cancelled nonetheless, so hopefully I'm done with this mess! I did lose 2 1/2 pounds in one week on these pills, so I went to GNC and bought the same dosage pills for $14.99/30 day supply. Hope they work!! Good luck to everyone, and hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!

Scammed and Pissed off!!!

I too am one of those people that got scammed. I didn't understand the 14 day trial period....I actually thought I'd have 14 days to try the product and then cancel. Anyways I called the company today, December 19 and the lady told me I should of called by the 17th to cancel the product was shipped. I told her I would refuse shipment and she would have to refund my money. She told me no!! After arguing with her for a long time, I kept demanding to speak to her supervisor which she kept telling me they are not allowed to transfer calls. Bologna I told her. I told her she was hiding something and she told me if I wanted to talk to someone else to hang up and call back. I told her I don't need to do this because she can transfer me.......I rarely raise my voice and I as pissed!! She ended up hanging up on me. I called my credit card company, they're doing an investigation and took the 89.31 off my account. I then had them change my credit card number so they can no longer charge my account. This is so frustrating! Never again will I do this. My credit card company also told me that if I do get the shipment they said they sent out to me, to refuse the shipment and have it sent back. I was giving the lady at acaiberry hell at one point because I had told her I was going to refuse it and then she'd have to give me a refund! She said they wouldn't, I said what are you going to do with it when you get it back? Restock it and sell it again???!! I said the package will not even be opened. I could go on for hours about this. ugh!!

#281 - Merri - 12/19/2008 - 17:42

Pissed off in Alaska

I have read through nearly every review on this page and feel all your outrage/pain. I took feel hook line and sinker for this unbelievable scam. I have called over 10 different toll-free numbers. Half seemed to be disconnected. I didnt have a problem getting someone on the line though when I did find a good number. After speaking, or rather SCREAMING, at the lady I was told I would be given a refund of 89.31. That was yesterday. Today I found this site and it made me uncomfortable with the conversation I had yesterday and left me with doubt that I would actually receive a refund. So I called back today and talked to someone different. When I asked them to verify the refund confirmation number she told me a completely different number. AT this point I have spoken to 6 different people and have received 6 different cancellation numbers. I also spoke to Fit Factory. Acai people told me that Fit Factory had charged me too. I verified this through my bank but when I spoke to FF they denied even having record of me in their system.... yet they were able to charge me? And for WHAT??? I had not read the fine print about them or Price Limbo. Apparently in the T&C section, there are two boxes that are checked for each of these \"associate companies\" and you have to UN-check them in order to not be later charged by them. I finally went into my bank and cancelled my Visa check card and was issued a new one. I have to wait 14 days before I can dispute the charges. Apparently theres a grace period I have to give these people to see if they really do refund me the $$$. These people are the biggest scam!!! At one point I was transferred to someone in the Phillipines!!!

#282 - Julie - 12/19/2008 - 23:27

Lucky

I never trusted those try it before u buy it/trial free adds so I went out and bought a prepaid cards for $10 put $5 on it and ordered the product. I was not pleased and called to cancel they stated (She was extremely nasty about it) I waited to long and I was going to be charged some $80 something dollars but after that I would no longer be charged, with a grinch like smile I said OK!! knowing I only had like $2 on there...ha ha

#283 - alexie - 12/19/2008 - 23:30

Mrs

Shame Shame shame.
Me too, saw Opra's name and thought it was worth a go, FREE TRIAL what a crok of S***,it must be easy for them to sleep at night. I tried the free one's and found they didn't work so there is no way in hell I would buy a bottle but now I have one. I am in AUSTRALIA and can't find any way of contacting them. Please help I don't want them to get away with FRAUD, just another SCAM.

#284 - Sue Wood - 12/20/2008 - 00:53

Crazyness

Ha wow... I don't feel like such an ass now... :-P

no offense. But on a more serious note... Be careful! It's not just this company doing this! Some more respectable companies are starting to sneak things in that automatically sign you up for monthly billings for random things such as orientaltrading.com signing you up for something called easysaver. I actually called got this cancelled for a full refund... but if I wouldn't have caught it I wouldn't have known.. Also I ordered those dance videos called Core Rhythms and they signed me up for all kinds of crazy stuff. Altogether It costed me over $130 to learn a valuable lesson to be more careful and check my statements more often. DON'T GIVE UP ON REFUND UNTIL YOU'VE TRIED IT A COUPLE TIMES! I received a refund for one of my $89.31 charges and refund from fit-fac and the limbo place... My bank made it sound like this place was in a heap of trouble... so I don't know. I'm going to submit a statement, wait a couple weeks to see if I have any refund they said I would get and then cancelling my card and opening a new account. >-(

ahh oh well.. you live you learn.

Extreme Acai Berry

Got me too.
I put my information into the computer, thought better of it and closed the window. Did not send, did not save - guess what, they got the info anyway. I have product, product I don't want and my credit card was charged twice. My credit card company called me and alerted me. It does not show up as Acai they used another name - VIP FIT but it was 89.31 x 2. They don't answer the phone either. My bad.

#286 - Elaine Shingleton - 12/21/2008 - 00:49

RIP OFF

There are 2 chages one on 11/19 and one on 12/18/08 on my credit/bankcard statement --These people charged my credit card 89.31 two times. I HAVE NEVER ORDERED THIS STUFF. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THEM. THEY GOT MY NAME/CREDIT CARD ILLEGALLY!!!! I called the # 877-0952, which the credit card co. gave me that was on the charges. ,I finally spoke to a woman named "RaffY" if that was her real name....I told her I never ordered, she said I did. Of course she is full of it. I want a refund of both charges!!!! She stated they would cancel my enrollment, WHAT ENROLLMENT!!!! I neve renrolled!!!! She then stated they could only refund one of the charges, from 12/18 and it would show in 14 days. They cannot go back more that one month!!!! I filed a dispute with my credit card company on these charges, and they are investigating them. I also filed a report with the Better Business Bureau, Consumer Affairs, and the U.S. Attorney Generals Office Division of Consumer Affairs & Fraud, agains this company and their fraudulant uses. These companies all stated they have hundreds of complaints against this company, and mine was of many. However, since there are so many, they are having their legal department look into the company. Maybe we will all get some kind of satisfaction soon. ALl you people who have been ripped off, go to the Better Business Bureau online, file a complaint, they will follow through. Also go online to Consumer Affairs and file a complaint, they will also follow through. One of their attorneys called me 3 days ago about this company. The US Attorney Generals office was done online also, they responded, and I have sent them the info, but there is alot of red tape, but they stated there is complaints of fraud as well. Hopefully we they will shut this place down!!! :-(

SCAM

Oh man I wish I had knew about this scam earlier....I was on Facebook one day when I saw the advertisement. Silly me I ordered the "free" trail..Free my butt!!! It took forever to arrive and once it did arrive my credit card was charged $113.96 Canadian. I called to cancel and they told me to send back my bottle of pills...The only bottle I got was the free trial!!! Not to mention I had a charge from Pricelimbo on my statement. Like wtf is Pricelimbo??? I called back the company and they said they would credit me but it would take 7 business days..Fine no problem...But they never did!!! I was credit the charge from Pricemibo but not the $113.96. It's no use...They say they will issue me a credit but they won't!!! I've called my credit card company and they are looking into the matter for me. I also have to cancel my credit card and be reissued a new one to stop this fraud company from charging me!!! Last time I buy off the damn internet!!! Oh and those pills are a crock..They smell like kids vitamins, they aren't FDA approved...I'm not going to put them in my system..Who knows what's really in them!!

#288 - Lynn - 12/21/2008 - 13:06

I got scammed!

I feel so stupid! This is the first time I have ever purchased anything off of the internet and I never will again. I noticed my account was charged $29.95. I called and they returned my money. THEN, I was charged $3.95 and lastly the $89.31 which I am now disputing. I canceled my credit card so that no other charges can go through which is a pain, but ultimately will save my butt. I received the bottle which I will not take and is going straight into the trash. I will never put my info into another sit such as this again.

Acai Berry Nightmare

This nightmare has to end...where are the laws to protect us? Why are the cops out wasting their time with tickets when they should be online investigating these robberies? Deception is fraud and yet these companies are allowed to continue stealing from us with fraud as their company premise. FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT. We're fighting for peace in the Middle East, yet we can't even maintain peace on our own land. There is no trust. The United States is in a sorry state where people are only out to get "theirs" and don't give a damn about their hardworking neighbor who is getting stepped on. Do something you litigators! I'm so tired of hearing about the crooks getting away with this. The money I may lose to these crooks may not be the trillions we're throwing away overseas, but if we join together in a class-action lawsuit I believe the amount stolen from all will add up fast. There is no excuse for such corruption and ignorance. We, as honest citizens of the United States should not allow it.

Extreme Acai Berry

I purchased this product online but luckily I was able to cancel it before it charged my credit card the $90. I think I got lucky with an easy telemarketer too because he didn't give me a hard time. He offered to extend my trial period but I firmly said "No." and he didn't argue. I knew when buying this that there had to be some kind of catch. I didn't expect it to cost 90 frikin bucks, though! I canceled in a week. Just remember,everything's too good to be true.

Extreme Acai Berry - You have got to be kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am in the same boat as all of you. I am getting married soon and wanted to shed these last 15 pounds and was having a heck of a time doing it. I was checking my mail on myspace and this ad had been poping up for weeks on my page. (So it is actually something myspace has for an ad.) One day I was so frustrated I gave in and ordered it. I thought better of it and called and said I didn't want it. They said okay your membership will be done. I also had to sit and listen to 45 minutes of terrible music and speak to someone who I could not understand. Guess what showed up and that 89.31 was taken out of my account! I called and the guy tried to offer me another bottle and I said no that I want my money back. He told me if I sent it back with a tracking number I would get my money in 3 to 5 business days. I have called every week and get the same story that they will contact corporate and put me on the list to get my money back and it will happen in 3-5 days. That was Oct 15th and I still NEVER HAPPENS!!!!!

I disputed the charge with my bank and got a new debit card. They will not give you any information when you call without getting your phone number or zip. I have called so many times that now they hang up on me when they claim to put me on hold. Lets get these guys shut down!!! The pills didn't work I think they are just Tums or something. I have also reported them to the BBB. I called to tell them that as well and the guy told me to do whatever I wanted to do that he didn't care. Can you believe that! I can get through on this number without much of a wait. 1-801-208-7485.

EXTREME ACAI BERRY IS THE BIGGEST SCAM

I can't believe I got suckered into this. I didn't received the product until after the 14day trial period and tried to cancel, but they wouldn't even give me the time of day. When I called to cancel, they said didn't you read the terms and conditions, which I never did see. They wouldn't refund, etc., and said it's company policy. I guess company policy only works one way, THEIR WAY, as I didn't even have the chance of a free tril before they charged my credit card for the 1st shipment. NEVER AGAIN!!! STAY AWAY! :oops:

I agree with all the negative comments about AcaiBerry. What a scam, and I fell for it!! I, too, tried all the phone numbers to return and cancel the product, but to no avail. I was either disconnected or told the wait time was 70+ minutes, then was disconnected! What a bunch of hooey. I contacted my credit card company when I noticed the charges for products I hadn't received. My credit card dispute department was able to reach the companies when I complained of fraud. My account with AcaiBerry is closed, thank goodness. What a nightmare, but I was stupid enough to buy the product and didn't read the fine print. PLEASE DON'T BE TEMPTED TO PURCHASE ANY ACAI PRODUCTS ONLINE--ALL THE COMPANIES ARE FRAUDULENT.

DONT BE TRICKED BY EXTREME ACAI BERRY!!!

I was SOOOOOOO pissed off when I checked my bank statement today and $89.31 was charged to my card for these stupid pills. First of all, I got the free trial for $3.95, which I didn't even end up FINISHING. I only took it for one day and it's sitting there on my desk. Second of all, they give you a different number on your statement where the second charge was made. Notice that the number for the $3.95 charge is different than the $89.31 charge. The first number is practically impossible to cancel your order, but the second number is 1-877-350-8480, call that one because it's faster to get through to someone and they will cancel right away. Unfortunately, they give you that second number AFTER you've already been billed $89.31. I just got done yelling at the customer service rep, who repeatedly said, "As stated in our terms, you had 14 days to cancel, but you didn't. A lot of our customers cancelled, you should've read it before you purchased it." Oh...My...God.. I am so pissed off that I spent 90 freakin dollars on this b.s.!!! >-(

Extreme Acai Berry

Well it seems I'm not the only one who got ripped off!!!! I had the exact same thing happen-- try me for 2 weeks and then charge me a ridiculous amount without warning... didnt receive the product (that doesnt work) and then offer to send me another bottle........ if I didnt get the first one, why would I get the second? (got the trial one though) So now what do I have to show for it? I sent a fraud request to my CC company and they refunded the money to me. Did anyone notice a charge for a weight loss program for $20 as well? I got that taken off as well......... buyers BEWARE!!! Total SCAM!!!

Acai Berry - CANCEL CARD & FOLLOW ADVICE OF #288

I got scammed like all of you. Got charged $89 on 14th day, canceled on 15th day when I read the paperwork (I missed it online). They told me I would get refunded within 3-14 days. They never refunded my $89. They told me I would get refunded within 3-14 days. It\'s been two months, so I know I won\'t see it. I called my bank and they put a block on the company so no further charges would be put through. One week later, got a $8 charge from Price Limbo (a different company but they listed the same customer service number.)I had my bank reverse the charge because they were able to see it was the same customer service number. The bank then had me get a different number on my credit card so the company can no longer charge my account. It\'s been 6 weeks and no charges. Follow the advice of Cyndiayn #288 and help take this company down! :-D

God knows I need my money . It is Christmas and we all are out of 90.00 + dollars. I pray that God will stop the evil doers and they soon will be cut down. The word of God states where 2 or 3 touch and agree ,he will (God ) show up. I need a few people to agree with me that God will have them arrested and we will get justice or money back. In Jesus Name. I am a believer !!!!!

#300 - Frances Baumbach - 12/25/2008 - 14:30

ME TOO!!!

oooh Im so mad. I wish I would have seen this three days ago. I tryed calling on the 25th and they were closed. So as I was calling this morning they charged me and I supposadly talked to a suppervisor and she said that they had already shipped it hows that you just charded me 8 min ago she said it was auto matically shipped bull%$#%&. She said when you get it just return it and I will refund the money. Then I said what ever hung up and cancelled my card. So they can't charge me any more. They only gave me seven tablets and you are suppose to take two a day or more arent you suppose to have enough for the whole trial. My husband ask me didn't I learn from his mistake last year with ordering online. I guess I didn't. But now I did. I hope something happens and even if we all don't get our money back they are false advertizing and that is against the law and even using famouse peoples name I am sure they don't know about this someone should find out how to let them know and maybe they can shut them down or something. This sucks my bank is chargeing me because there was no money in my account along with the 89 and 17 I was charged from some other company I didn't subcribe too. This sucks. >-(

#301 - Loretta Moreno - 12/26/2008 - 14:15

Saw an Internet ad for Extreme AcaiBerry and signed-up for the 14-day trial @$3.95. Since I am on over 20 daily meds for various medical issues, I showed the bottle to my doctor who was not exactly supportive of them. So that ended my thought of taking the pills.

Unfortunately I did not read the "fine print" that said I would be charged for monthly refills if I did not cancel after the 14 days. The $3.95 initial supply was charged on 9/8/2008 to "Easy 30day Thin 877-3508490 UT". I thought I was done.

Busy as I am, I did not look at my charge statements as carefully as I should have. On 9/22/08 I was charged $89.31 to "Celebrity fitonline 877-3508380 UT". On 10/22/2008, $89.31 to "Easy 30DayThin 877-3508480 UT". On 11/21/2008, $89.31 to "Easy 30DayThin 877-3508480 UT". Finally on 12/22/2008, $89.31 to "1emailoffer 877-6154233 UT". Does any of these look like a charge for Extreme Acai Berry?... shame on me for being so stupid!

You may wonder why I kept accepting the bottles? Like a lot of promotional officers, they keep sending promotional samples for a few extra months knowing that the customer will either ignore the new samples and throw them away, or will finally subscribe out of guilt or is finally convinced to subscribe.

On 12/26/2008 I called Extreme Acai Berry using the number on the latest bottle of pills, 877-350-8480, and immediately canceled. The person I was talking to immediately gave me a confirmation number as if this was standard practice. I asked for a refund as I felt this was a scam, but was denied; then asked to speak to her supervisor. She told me her supervisor was in a meeting and could not be disturbed. I repeatedly asked, then demanded I speak to her supervisor or other superior, and finally the president, but was told she couldn't do that. Sorry, but I finally lost my temper and said a few mild expletives I shouldn't have. But if I had been treated what I thought fairly, I wouldn't have lost my temper. I've never heard of a business where the customer was not allowed to talk to a supervisor.

Stay away from this company! It is a scam! They know most people don't read the fine print and Extreme Acai Berry will continue to collect their money until the customer discovers their error and cancels. They made an extra $357.24 off me... not a bad scam. Thinking over what I said, I feel sorry for the poor customer rep I chastised because she works for a company with these business ethics.

I'm not done yet. My next step is the Better Business Bureau and the Michigan Attorney General.

Free Trial Info

I ordered Acia berry's free trial and its supposed to be a 14 day trial but I only recieved 15 pills and you are suppose to take 2 pills 30 minutes before each meal. Well if you eat 3 meals a day that's 6 pills so that is only 2 1/4 day trial. How is anyone supposed to know if it works in that amount of time. I did however cancel before they got me for the $90. This is what my bottle said.....

That is what the entire bottle says. 14 day trial my A**. This company is a total scam. Their website doesn't list prices or anything. I fell for their little trial and luckily I canceled before I even got the Pills because I didn't want charged. I did however sit on the phone for over a hour waiting for someone to answer the phone. Oh by the way you don't even get their trial bottle for like 4-6 weeks so thats how they make their $90 because who knows how to cancel untill they get the product with the phone number on it. TOTAL SCAM!!!! >-(

#303 - Valerie - 12/26/2008 - 23:19

I Just Feel Sick and soooo stupid!

I'm a deputy sheriff for crying out loud! This is the kind of stuff - I should be warning others about!! I have ALL the charges... the 89.31, the 29.95, and the $8 from Price Limbo. I had no idea where these charges were coming from!! I got charged twice (2 months) before I got a second shipment of pills in the mail - and put 2 and 2 together. And that was after a ton of overdraft charges!!! There's no paperwork included with the shipment - so when I got more pills after my free shipment - I didn't have any idea why. (and NO - they don't work, anyway!)
I am not going to let this drop like so many others are doing! I advise all of you to report this to your bank as fraud! Report this to the better business bureau and the credit agencies!!! I am! They have no idea what they have started!

#304 - Tonya - 12/26/2008 - 23:31

This is a scary thing!!

I ordered the free trial- like a moron..... I was excited to start taking it-- and then my eyes were going crazy! Not sure what is in it, or if I am allergic or what-- but I was having vision problems for days! I was afraid to tell an eye doctor, "OH I took some stupid diet pill" ughs. Luckily that cleared up-- THEN I get the FULL bottle in the mail later...what? Ya I didn't see the fine print either- that and there is no shipping ticket with your free trial or anthing. I am surpised there is even a phone number on the bottle-- Of course I cant' take the stuff, and I want to cancel but never get anyone. I will be contacting my bank on Monday. Ridiculous and I fell very STUPID. DONT buy this crap......

#305 - Kari - 12/27/2008 - 21:07

ACAI BERRY AND TOTAL CLEANSE- DOUBLE RIP OFF

Well- my VISA company said they could still keep charging my card even if I cancel it because I went into an "agreement" with Acai Berry! I stupidly got Acai berry to "throw in the Total Cleanse" (free! ha!) and lo and behold 2 x $90.00 charges first month and then another 2 charges totalling 400!!!! Believe me I tried cancelling- my credit company were no help at all and are making me swallow the first charges- luckily they never sent a 2nd shipment so my cc company said they could dispute those charges.. So it was 200.00 gone.!! So beware...

#306 - Diana - 12/28/2008 - 04:36

Extreme Acai Berry

Like all of you, I had the same problem with the company charging my account $89 after the trial offer, then refuse to accept my return. I contacted my credit card company and they call the Berry company while on the phone with me. My credit card company said the Berry company was very careful in setting up their website and that I could not get a refund, she did agree that they seem like a scam. I went online today and notice their website has closed down, so it looks like they're now out of business and we're all still out the $89 + $3.95. Sure wish I could get me money back!

#307 - Barbara - 12/28/2008 - 12:54

Lost 80.31 as well

Thanks for the info I have been trying to get my money back for over a month. I will also report them to The BBB and I have cancelled my credit card but filing a fraud report is a great Idea. I really didn\'t need to loose almost a 110 bucks at Christmas time. Can\'t believe I fell for it.

#308 - Stacy AZ - 12/28/2008 - 13:12

EXTREME ACAI YEAH EXTREMELY RUDE

I can't believe I fell for the Scam of we need 14 business days to refund your money due to a bank to bank transaction!! Now I am supposed to give them 3 to 5 more days to check into my refund!! They are extremely RUDE and I can't believe they are still in business!!! I again have been assured my refund is coming!! We shall see.

omg!!!! I didn't realize what I was getting into. I have tried and tried to call the 800 number with no success. >-(

So I just took everyones advice and just called and cancelled my card. What is this fit factory anyway? After reviewing all of the comments I looked a little closer to my statement and was billed the 29.95. I really thought I was smarter than this but I guess not. When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. >-(

#311 - Angela - 12/30/2008 - 07:42

Acia Berry

Like everyone else, I signed up for the free trial in November 2008, $3.95. I was then charged $89.31 November and December, total of $178.62. WHAT A SCAM. I really can\'t afford this and I don\'t know what to do. I called the company and they were very rude. on top of this, they are charging me for magazines, that I did not even order for an additional $29.95 per month. they should be out of business.

Xtreme Acai Berry

Well, I have to say I'm another one of those people who never thought they'd be foolish enough to be 'taken' by an unscrupulous company perpetrating a 'scam'. I was. I too did not find the miniscule line of type in the online ad I saw which described the highly suspect "terms and conditions". I am fuming. I even more mad at myself than I am at this disgusting group of con artists. I spoke to customer service rep Alice Curtis (that's what she SAID her name was) and she would not give me the name of her 'superior'. I received not one, but two shipments (after the free trial package arrived)! I had actually sent the first one back with a letter advising them I was not interested in receiving this product and expected a credit to my account. Imagine my suprise when I get another bottle in the mail yesterday! So, I make it difficult enough for her the she acknowledges that my "account" has been "closed" and that she'll give me a refund for the first shipment, but not the other. Then she put me on hold by putting the phone down and leaving it for quite a while 'til eventually someone came along, picked the phone up and disconnected us. I still plan to send the second bottle back with the expectation that I WILL receive a refund. I think consumers would benefit from this type of scam being brought to the attention of consumer advocates who do stories for the local and national newscasts.

#313 - Luise - 12/30/2008 - 16:45

SCAM!!!!!!

i ordered the free trial. then a female called me and offered me the 80.00 "deal". i told her no. (i had a bad feeling about it). i told her to call me in a week and she said they wont have the "deal" in a week. so i told her to forget it and i dont want it. a week later i got it in the mail. im glad i read the top cuz now i am canceling my credit card. acaiberry isnt worth it and NOW i will never trust anyone who claims to have the correct pill. EVERYONE reading this, DO NOT BUY ACAIBERRY PILLS!!!

#314 - kathy palshook - 12/31/2008 - 23:06

Extreme Acai

I have ordered several things before and never got scammed until I ordered the free Acai for the $3.95 shipping and handling. It was worse than the others said. That little paper explaining the terms had 6 more companies added to it and they had taken out a check for $29.95 plus the set up for the $89.31 monthly bottle of Acai Pills. I was having a little trouble with the bank who did not want to just cancel the credit card so I cancelled the whole bank account and found out they had taken the additional $29.95
out and I was just in time to save everything.
I had tried to call but never could get through and I had gotten the product on the 14th day and that was the final time you could refuse the scam according to them For those who are not looking at their bank account as a debit card you had better take another look they are still stealing from you each month by using another company name. I lost that little slip but the name they stole the $29.95 from was called Fit Factory. After I got that all settled I recieved another form from the bank this month asking
me to sign the from again as it seems that they are still trying to collect from my account. I closed the account so if they are so stupid as to give them another $29.95 from their bank they are worse than I was because I wasn't warned. I made out a Sworn Denial and I haven't sent it to the bank yet but if I get a billing from them I sure am going to shock them and sue them for FDCPA violations and then they won't ever try that to another bank customer again. The name of the so called parent company was Litle & Company according to the logo in the corner from the bank
copy and I noticed it was spelled with one T.
I even told the bank I wanted to know what I was supposed to have recieved from the Fit Factory. I need a validation of products and colors etc. was it socks, shoes, drawers, shirts or what was it. If they are wise at all they should have filed a fraud claim against that scam outfit I never noticed an address on it. I got the product from Florida but the company was out in the midwest somewhere. I wish I could find that paper again but I misplaced it. Lord I hope anyone who reads this have sense enough to close out the complete bank account before it's too late and they drain them dry. Six so called companies drawing from a person's bank acount will make some people poor and the scam artist more rich.

Extreme Acai Berry

Well I feel so much better seeing that I am not the only one who fell for their free trial scam!! I only wish I had checked them out before ordering! The free trial came with a full size bottle and almost immediately after the $3.99 shipping charge on my credit card, another for $89.31 appeared. Then a few days letter I received an additional bottle and checked and my credit card had been charged $90. This was all in about 10 days. When I contacted my credit card company, they said that unfortunately with free trial offers they see scams like this often. There wasn't anything I could do to stop the charges aside from canceling my credit card account so they could no longer use the number and then I filed fraud charges against the company. I could never reach anyone on their customer service line - I either received a recording asking me to hold on and I finally gave up after 10 minutes or a recording say to call back during their business hours which I always did!! I will never again fall for a free trial scam!

#316 - Jane - 01/01/2009 - 08:43

Acai Berry trial offer - WHAT TO DO!!!!

I didnt see this page either before ordering, but what i did do was search fro a company in australia selling the product so i could deal with it in my own country. After sending fo the trial offer as I knew I could then cancel in 14 days, I found I was actually redirected and purchased through an american company.
The person whose website it appears on said she is only promoting the product not selling it and gave me an american number to ring, which I have been ringing and nothing happens.

Needless to say I actually purchased through my mastercard debit card which thank god I don't use for anything else, my credit card already has periodical monthly debits going through it and I certainly don't need the hassle of cancelling that. I emailed my bank and they rang me immediately and we cancelled my debit card so if they try and put something through it wont go through.

Here in australia you don't keep getting debited if you cancel your card with a scam company, they need the new details for that to happen and you can put through a fraud thing with your credit card by filling out a fraud form and let them prove its not a fraud if you have on numerous times tried to cancel.

So for those who think they have to just pay up and shutup, you don't. Take them to court, small claims if you have to to get yor money back but make sure you keep a detailed written report about everything you have done to try and cancel this and also print off this website also as proof that many others have as well.
Small claims should go in your favour if you have followed everything you possibly could.

Cancel your credit card if you have to and get another one, they cant take it out of another one, you didn't give them those details to, they would have to follow you up to try and find the new info, then that means they are talking to you. Then you can once again file a complaint.

File a complaint and email a copy of it to them or mail if they cant be emailed. Send a letter of that complaint to any website that is promoting their product as they are obviously making commission out of it.

Cancel any subscriptions coming to you through email via their site as they sell the info on to other companies.

If your bank refuses to support you, then cancel your whole bank account and move bloody banks, then nothing can be taken out of your account.

Your the consumer, you have rights especially if you follow all you can to cancel it.

Next thing is to blacklist their website, get the IP of the website and the owner details and send it out to all the major black list companies or whoever it goes to, to report them as spam, scam etc.

Anyone else with ides on how to stop them rather then leave them there to scam hundreds of others... No use crying over spilt milk after the fact, all work together to stop them in any which way you can. Get their hosting site and report their website business as a scam to the hosting service.

Their website details are through godaddy, so maybe complain to godaddy about them also.

If the above emails and phone numbers start getting enough complaints, maybe they will shut the website down.

If someone can get an IP address from any emails they may have received as i didn't, that would also help.

Their servers are through www.xmission.com I did a trace route on their website and it went straight to them, so maybe complain to them for the website EXTREMEACAIBERRY.COM something may come fromt hat. Lets do what we can to bring them down and help stop others getting caught although they will only come back with a new name no doubt.

And to be honest, one person in amongst hundreds saying the product is good is too low a percentage for even them to no wonder what is wrong with this company.

good luck, I may have been luck and wont get a charge through now.

Well well well, I never order anything online because of bullshit like this, then I was desperate to lose a couple few LBS and I got an E-mail about acai berry total body clense and it talked about the LBS melting off and besides it was on Oprah I paid the $3.95 S&h and was promised the product in 7-10 business days then about 3 weeks later( of course after the 14 day trial had already expired I finally got the product) A friend told me to go back to the site and click on the fine print so I did and there it was $89.31 fee for not canceling in 14 days now I too am stuck with a product that is a bunch of bullshitt and Im $89.31 in the hole. Its pretty shitty that those people can sleep at night knowing that they're ripping off millions of people, but look at it this way they are the ones that have to live with it not us!

I live in canada and ive been charged over 100 for this product because of the currency. Ive tried so many times to get ahold of these people and i also get a recording and then the line just goes blank. I know i wont get my money back i just want them to stop charging me for it. Is there no way to do that

Extreme Acai Berry

I too am a scammed soul - spent many frustrating hours today dealing with credit card company (they were quite helpful) and the idiots at Extreme acai berry. I received my $89 first order before I received my trial size. When I argued with the telephone respondent, she finally agreed to refund HALF of my money...So I cut my losses as well. In addition to that charge I received billing from fit-fac.com - which does not answer its phone at all - had to have those two items challenged on the credit card. Also from PriceLimbo which they say is like ebay...the young man immediately agreed to a refund. On Monday, I will be calling the Better Business Bureau. I feel foolish, but seeing that I am not alone is a help. Thank you all for sharing your information.

Extreme Acai Berry and Fit-Fac.com (Fitness Factory)

I too trusted what I read about Extreme Acai Berry. My naivity was not the problem. The problem is that that they were dishonest and sold my name, address and debit card information to Fitness Factory (Fit-fac.com) who billed me 29.95 for their online fitness support. I never agreed to this service. I called and canceled with fit-fac.com, called my bank and canceled my card. I filled claims with my banks fradulent charges division. I am now going to call the Extreme Acai Berry folks and let them know how I feel about them and cancel my order. This has taken me the better part of my Saturday. Time well spent and lesson learned. If this or something simular to this has happened to you please call your bank and cancel your card and protest with the company(ies) who are continuting to do this. Otherwise, nothing will be done to stop them.

Cancel Card, Sending Letters

I cancelled my credit card last week after calling customer service numbers for two and a half months. I have talked to some customer service reps, Fit Factory is the only company that actually cancelled my account and refunded me my money. Acai Berry and Total Cleanse told me they would cancel my account, but they just keep on charging me. I finally got a hold of Pricelimbo a few weeks ago, and they told me they cancelled my account, we'll see. I am sending certified letters on Monday to the following address:

Extreme AcaiBerry/PriceLimbo
4650 SW 51st St.
Suite 711
Davie, FL 33314

Best Pure Cleanse/Total Cleanse Shipping Dept
127 NW 13th St. Suite 4
Boca Raton, FL 33432

I am concerned about my credit. I talked to the fraud department at CitiBank. He said it is possible if I cancel my card that these charges could be sent to collections. I'm trying to keep all my records from these events. I have excellent credit and I hope something as stupid as this doesnt ruin it.

BTW, I didnt notice anything with the Acai Berry, but I did like the Total Cleanse. It seemed to be all natural and it seemed to work. But, its probably safer to buy something at GNC.

#323 - Kris - 01/03/2009 - 19:47

Total Cleanse & Extreme Acai Berry

Both are scams and showed up on my credit cards. Extremem Acai Berry sent me a shipment before the 14-day trial period and that tipped me off to the scams being perpetrated by both companies. I am working with my credit card company to have the charges reversed and am filing reports for fraud. Total Cleanse lists a phone # on website and on credit card which is "out of service" (866-320-0038) so was unable to cancel the next shipment. Had to cancel credit card and open new one. Talked to a creep at Total Cleanse, that call went nowhere.

ExtremeAcaiBerry - NOT A SCAM

They all say CLEAR AS DAY that you must cancel before the trial free is over or you will be shipped the full bottle and charged. And OF COURSE they're not going to let you return it and get your money back! They are running a business people! They would lose a fortune dealing will all the ignorant people that don't cancel. Look at how many are here!

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT COMPANY BECAUSE THERE ARE SEVERAL!!!

Extreme AcaiBerry (the DELICIOUS chewable tablets) have been working GREAT for me. When I tried to cancel the trial free they kept offerring me more free bottles and extending me trial. LOL! It was great. But then I started to notice they really worked!!! Now I feel it's worth the $90 a month. So much stress about weight loss is finally gone!

HOWEVER - Acai Berry Supreme was a scam b/c as some people indicated, the phone number didn't work when you call to cancel.

CHECK THE NUMBER BEFORE ORDERING AND YOU SHOULD BE FINE!

#325 - LaShawn - 01/05/2009 - 09:13

Extreme AcaiBerry

Extreme AcaiBerry is the umtimate Extreme scam.
I was totally mislead. I thought after ordering and trying this product, if I liked it, I could re-order. Instead I received a bottle in the mail less than 30 days from the first bottle I received. Then the same thing the following month, in less than 30 days, a third bottle came. I was not pleased with the pills and had stopped taking them but figured...lesson learned with the 2nd bottle. Once receiving the 3rd bottle it took me over a week of constant calling to get a customer service representative on the phone to cancel this. They told me to return the 3rd bottle (which I did immediately) and I would get a credit on my credit card but never did eceive a credit. Oprah Winfrey should be ashamed of herself for backing such a scam. Brad and Angelina should demand their faces be taken off of the AcaiBerry home page. Why hasn't someone stepped in to do something legal against this company?

#326 - Debbie - 01/05/2009 - 11:09

AcaiBerry

This is big scam, but what I have not notice on the other blog is that they do not have three account setup like I have. Yes, I said 3 accounts. I have all the account numbers and emails to cancel two and I am waiting on the third email, but somehow I don't think I am going to receive.

I never receive any information, but when I got my bank statement I had two orders on it. the first was for 88.67 and the next was 94.57, the orders was exactly one week apart and one was from a different company.

I called both numbers on the bank statement and was hung up on four times, when I mentioned cancellation. I guess my next step is to call my bank and cancel my card.

We live and learn. I do think the postmaster should be informed, after all they are sending the product through the mail.

#327 - Debbie - 01/05/2009 - 13:02

extreme acai berry and total cleanse...

so i just chatted with someone asking how i could mail these back to get a refund and of course i was told a refund was not possible. i mentioned i had sent 3 emails asking to cancel over a couple weeks time and had also tried called the phone number that doesn't work. i plan to just try and sell them on ebay or craigslist but should i also notify my bank, even though my account is apparently cancelled, to make sure no further charges are made? any other ideas of what to do with these products? they don't fall in line with my dietary preferences and $80 a bottle is a rip off! of course ingredients could not be found on the actual website. i got these through sflnutrition, so be aware if you get anything from them. ok, i'd like advice if anyone has any.

#328 - deanna - 01/05/2009 - 16:15

Extreme Acai Berry

Very Frustrated. I ordered the 14day free trial offer, but instead got hit with a $90.00 credit card was charge. When I called to complain about the charge and not receiving the trial product I was told I had 14days to cancel the trail offer. Now how can I cancel something I have never received. Which confirms it is a rip-off. They claim the trail offer was shipped, which I did not receive, and then they told me my credit card was charged because I did not cancel during the trial period. SCAM, SCAM, SCAM.

#329 - Scammed - 01/05/2009 - 18:01

extreme acai berry SCAM!

I got suckered too. >-(

I ordered thier garbage Nov 5th 2008, by Nov 11th I still had not recieved anything. By Nov 6th still no product so I thought it'd be a good idea to go ahead and call to see what the deal was. They had only partailly correct info for me, no email address or phone number BUT...they did have my name and bank info. I Explained that I have not recieved thier product and would like to cancel anything that I may have unknowingly signed up for. No prob right!! Nov 14th these douche bags took $89.31 out of my account. I of course called again 877-859-1116. They were very apologetic and promised to refund me in the next 15 biz days...It is now January 6 2009!!!! I have called them yet again today. They have the nerve to get pissy with me for cursing at them when they are clearly stealing from me. I demand to speak to a supervisor, ROSIE, is her name. She isnt there...OF COURSE shes not! Has ANYONE got thier money back from these turds????

#330 - Brandi - 01/06/2009 - 15:23

Extreme Acai-berry

I was taken for a ride too, I was charged $89.31. So I called the company and of course they asked "did I read the terms and conditions". I said "heck no this is standard stuff". Ha-ha stupid me. I told them I refused the package and they will need to refund the money, they said they do no take returns and no refunds. So what I did was contact my bank, filed a complaint and cancelled the card. they reissued a new card and my bank refunded the money back to my acct. and while I was filing they notice another charge on my account. for 29.95 from a company named
fit-fac so they added that amount the the complaint.(if your credit card company or your bank doesn't do this for you I would switch banks, now a days they need to help protect consumers and there is too many banks and credit card companies out there to not ask them to back up there customers.
Then I filed a complaint with the better business bureau with Florida and Utah for both companies and also with the Federal Trades commission. I suggest everyone who has been scammed file with these two companies the more they get the better. Good Luck everyone!

Man I feel like the biggest fool that ever lived. I feel for the free trial offer for Extreme Acaiberry and apparently didn't see the call and cancel or we will charge your cc for 89.31 plus,8.51 for pricelimbo.com,plus 84.95 for dri acalaslim, plus 19.95 for www.fit-fac.com. Imagine my surprise when I got my bill. I have canceled my cc and am disputing the charges on all this crap I didn't order nor want. Buyer beware. Image a product so crappy that they have to rip you off to make money. I also turned them into the BBB.

Acai Berry

I'm glad I decided to read this.. I was sceptical at first of the Acai Berry and about 4 months back I had been looking into it.. Believing the websites because they have pictures of Oprah and Rachel Ray and fake conversations of people.. I purchased my trial version of the Acai Berry and haven't had any issues with them charging anything to my account.. But since then I have gotten scammed by a different company and have been very cautious about making any online purchases.. Fortunately for me I think I didn't get charged because I put my trial version on a credit card that is basically maxed out.. Theres no money to take even if they wanted to.. I never recieved another bottle and am now going to call and cancel for when I pay off my bill so they don't try to charge me anything.. I was going to purchase another bottle today but then decided to check reviews before ordering.. Since the last time I got scammed, I realized how many things come right up when you google reviews on certain things.. You see REAL people having REAL conversations just like this.. Thank you all for the reviews and I pray and hope people start reading the REAL reviews before purchasing anything online.. It is absolutely terrible that people can do this to anyone and no one is doing anything about this.. I noticed on all the websites too their terms and conditions are something very small at the bottom of the page and they do all say it no one thinks to click on the terms though, that is how everyone gets screwed.. I know I am telling everyone I know to make sure they look at the fine print and be extremely careful when purchasing anything online..

What a crock of sh*t. This is a scam, don\\\'t buy it! I was charged $89.31 for a free trial offer and I never received the product. I\\\'ve been fighting with them for TWO MONTHS to get the money credited back to my account; I suppose I just need to come to terms that it\\\'ll never happen. I\\\'ve called them 6-7 times and each time they tell me another 3-5 business days and they\\\'ll submit the review to their \\\"corporate office.\\\"
I called the number again today and now it says that the office is closed and hung up on me.
I haven\\\'t been re-charged for this product, but I just want my dang money back.
This is unbelieveable; how can they can get away with this? I filed a complaint with the BBB in FL and I suggest everyone else does the same thing.

I too have been dupped by the trial offer and by the time that I received the order the company had already charged my cc for the $89.31 I have been attempting to get my refund since Nov.18,2008 .. I have been calling & calling. after looking at this site I'm sorry that I hadn't seen it before. If anyone get any solution to this problem please share it with the rest of us.
When I look at the number of people on this list that have been conned it's outrageous that these people can continue to do this...and like many of the rest of you I'm still waiting for my refund.

PLEASE some one help stop the madness!!!!!

AcaiBerry Detox

Thanks For Saving ME!!

This still sucks, but I think I\'m safe. I came here just after ordering. I was able to get in touch with the company using the number they provided relatively quickly (about 15 minutes total hold time). I was given a confirmation number, etc.. However, I STILL canceled my card immediately because of this statement in their privacy terms:

3.1 Sale or Transfer to Third Parties.
ACAI BERRY DETOX MAY SELL OR TRANSFER INDIVIDUAL INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES FOR ANY PURPOSE IN ACAI BERRY DETOX\'S SOLE DISCRETION.
If you do not wish us to use personal information about you to promote or sell our products and services or to sell, transfer or otherwise provide personal information about you to third parties, please inform us by contacting customer service at 1-888-888-8888 and we will certainly honor your request.

of course that number doesn\'t work and "personal information" INCLUDES YOUR CC NUMBER.. scary, huh?

#341 - Kris - 01/14/2009 - 19:43

Extreme Acai Berry

I have to totally agree with #340 Danielle although I did receive the product. I was charged the 89.31 even before receiving the trial offer. The account was cancelled and I haven't gotten another charge but I've been on the phone with them every week since 11/08 being promised a credit to my bank account. To top all that off, I did this on two separate bank accounts not knowing it was the same company. So I get the same set of lies for $180. I will call the BBB of MS to at least feel better about it. I've also reached them on different numbers if someone may want to try...877-350-8480 and 877-859-1116.

Oh my goodness what have I done??!! I have just found this site whilst trying to find how to cancel my subscription and cannot believe what I'm reading!! I too ordered the free sample in Nov 08, I did see the 14 day trial terms and decided to cancel before I even received the free trial to ensure they wouldn't take any funds out of my account. But I have not yet been able to, either the numbers are non-existent, no-one answers the phone, put on hold for 20-30 mins or even more annoying someone answers but then hangs up!! Bearing in mind that I am calling from the UK, I dread to think what my phone bill will be!!

I am a single parent and at the moment am on benefits due to illness and these low lifes are taking half of my monthly income!! So far they have taken nearly $200 and I don't no what to do!! Please help anyone!!!

So I also ordered this product back in October of 2008 and was coned out of $89.31, or eighty-nine dollars and thirty-one cents as the fine print puts it in the packaging I recieved well after the "Two Week" trail period had elapsed. I have been in contact with this company ever since and everytime I call there's never a manager available to speak with and they always tell me to wait 14 more days to receive my refund...well that was well over three months ago and today when I called the same number 1-801-208-7485 the phone doesn't even ring...it just disconnects. So I am going to take action through my banks Fraud department and let them handle the scheming jerks. DON'T ORDER THE PRODUCT IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT IT!!! IT IS A SCAM!!!

I was order the extreme for $1.00 shipping and handling and had put all my info in and then notice there was other things that I was going to be charge for. I tried to cancel the order, and thought I did. Then two charges appeared on my credit card bill, $29.95 and 8.51. I did get those taken off. I was then charged 89.31 before I got the pills. I send them back and have been fighting with them for over a month to get the 89.31 taken off. They keep saying the will, but they don't. My card company is going to look into it and I am also filing a report with the bbb and the attorney general's office.

I received my free sample of Extreme Acai Berry MeltAway Tablets just a few days short of the 14 day free trial. When I realized how much it was going to cost, I immediately phoned, and was on hold for about an hour then gave up. I then called the next day which was a Saturday at 10:45 MT, and was relieved to reach a live operator. He was very pleasant and cancelled my subscription, without question. I also was given a referral number. Kudos to the service today. :-)

Trust me there are other products out there. I mean, they always make new ways to make there products more appealing and better for there costumers. So let me know if any of you have found any other better diet instead of the Acai Berry. :-D

acai berry/total cleanse

Yes I can concur with all that was said. While on myspace I had seen an ad to order Acai Berry and total cleanse and as a RN I know to read before you buy so I read and read..I saw that Oprah promoted acai berry..Rachel ray...Dr Oz etc. Oprahs show made the web a scammers DREAM they could now use her in their ad. The site I saw claimed to be a blog of a 28 year old girl(my age) who had kids and couldnt shed the weight. I showed before and after pics etc and said that she lost it with acai berry and total cleanse as a duo from 2 separate sites. So i ordered both,utilizing the "free trial only pay for shipping" nonsense.(laughing at myself now) I did see the 14 day disclaimer and n day 11 i canceled my total cleanse(didnt get it until then) and on day 12 called to cancel ACAI berry. Well i waited and waited then was connected to a general vmail then was hung up on. Called back and received message that number was invalid. Went online to their website (www.mytrialsupport.com) and while chatting with an agent and trying to cancel our connection was lost (funny) so i became frustratted and quit trying. 3 days later checked statement online and there was 78.83 on my cc statement. when i went back online they spoke to me rudely,told me i knew the policy and couldnt help me (although i made many attempts) *****HERES WHERE IT CHANGED****** i CALLED BACK AND DECIDED TO WAIT FOR SOMEONE NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TOOK AND AFTER WAITING 15 MINS I GOT A SUPERVISOR..THREATENED TO CALL BBB...AND AFTER HEARING "MAAM IM SOORY" I GOT A "AS A COURTESY TO YOU I WILL REFUND YOUR MONEY" Well not believing her i checked my statement daily and low and behold 10days later my entire refund was there. If you want your $$$$$ stay firm--let them know "i know my rights and i will contact the local authorities and BBB" and yes i had to state my claim for 10 min but I received my money...

What a rip off this company is. My wife ordered the free trail and next thing you know they were billing our card $89.31 a month and the strange thing about it we didn't get the free trial or the product they billed us for. I spent 2.5 hours on the phone getting the run around and to no satifaction. I will contact the BBB in Missouri and just chalk this up to a loss.

Acai Berry Supreme & UltraSlim XS

I beat you all....

I sgined up for the trial for Acai Berry Supreme for $5.95 and UltrSlim XS for $4.95. I received the UltraSlim within 5 days and just recently received the Acai Berry product last week whch was about 2-weeks after I placed the order.

Well, today I received a $58.95 charge to my account for UltraSlim XS. Called them and cancelled my order. They sent me a confirmation via email. However, they would not refund the $58.95 charge. They said that they placed this order on 12/16/08 when the trial was sent. Such a crock of crap! Anyway, I called my bank. I placed an unauthorized purchase for the $58.95 and cancelled my card.

Now, with Acai Berry Supreme it gets interesting. I already received my trial bottle last week. However, they charged my account the $5.95 today. I called to cancel my order / membership with them. Waited on hold for about 20 minutes. The 1st person did not speak good english at all. Very hard to hear due to noise in the background. She could not locate my account by my name, address, email address, zip code or last 4-digits of card (which I fought to give but finally did because I want to close my account). After on hold for a while in between her looking, she hung up on me.

I then called a 2nd time and spoke to yet another person with very bad broken english. This person was harder to understand than the first. Same line, could not locate me by name, address, email, zip, etc. Was put on hold and he hung up on me.

Called back the 3rd time, furious! The 3rd person was very hard to understand also. Again, no luck on locating me by any means. I was told to call back after 1:00 PM tomorrow. In addition, I was also give the 866-407-1022 to FitFactory. Called FitFactory and they could not locate me.

Logn story short, this is what I did...thanks to all of the people that have replied and provided great information in this forum....I called my bank and cancelled my card and set up the fraud purchase. In addition, I went sent out emails to Acai Berry Supreme, Price Limbo, FitFactory and UltraSlim XS to cancel my all subscriptions under my name. I requested an confirmation be sent via to my email address that my request has been completed.

Botton line, we have to play harder and smarter at their game. We must be aware of all scams out there, especially on the web. Remember, these are tought times and people are really doing some crazy crap to get money any way they can.

I hope I helped at least one person out there. Good Luck. I'll sent an update on my results.

ACAIBERRY & TOTAL CLEANSE

Well, Yes I know the feeling all to well!!! I too went to two different sites and subscribed on the same day 11/20/08 for the free trial offer. It's funny because I went for the Total Cleanse after watching a health program and then somehow I too ended up on that girls weight loss journal page and then read the same "CELEBRITY" endorsed reveiws and thought why not. I did in fact read the advertisement which was on the bottomof the website page and even went and read the others such as refund/exchange and terms/conditions and I did call and cancelmine when I got the free sample in the mail. The ACAIBERRY was the first that I received and they promptly billed my card even on 11/20 but, Total Cleanse was a different story they didn't until 12/01 and then lo and behold on that same day is when I got the Infamous Fit-Fac.com $29.95 which is an online fitness site. Well, immediately I called my Bank and rightfully disputed the charge and got all the information and called them and was also informed the ACAI people had given them my name and so on. The guy was really nice and assured me the $29.95 would be returned back to my account within 3 days and told me I needed to call the ACAI people and make sure they cancel my stuff with them which I did again and was told Yes, I was cancelled. Well promply 3 days later the money was indeed refunded and I thought thank you Jesus! I don't know but I had a funny feeling when I signed up for them in the first place, you know? Nothing is for free! Well, imagine my shock when AHHHHH $89.31 had now showed up and this one was saying IP-4ONLINEHEALTHYFIT.com? I immediately phoned my BANK once again to dispute the charge received the phone # they had then called the people. Right they all must be from India I thought the man whose name was Rhen or Rhem was extremely rude and I stopped him and asked him who did he think he was talking to, because I was not going to let anyone speak to me like that and as a matter of fact I wish to speak with his manager now! He hung up. I called back another guy answered and said I'm sorry I would like to help you but our computers are down, you will have to call back later.The next day I called back spoke a guy who I could not understand his name had a very hard time understanding anything but he assured me the money would be put back on my card at the minimum of 48 hours to 14 days. You got it I kept an eagles eye on my account and no refund as of yet but what the hey! Another charge this one for $78.84 from you got the Total Cleanse people at "EASYBODYDETOXONLINE" yes by this time I was getting to be quite distraught and was really, really upset.I called these people and spoke with a carla who informed me that yes, I was cancelled and that she had now sent it to the "Refund Request Team" who would contact me in 24 to 48 hours watch my email! I lost it what do you mean watch my email you all are ripping me off I want the money put back in my account now or else I will be calling the Attorney Generals office or whoever I had to call. Please Maam, I am doing what I can to help you and I will give it to them and they will get a hold of you, click. I have been fighting for over a month and now My bank says they want more info because they cannot find anything wrong or inccorect. I thank You all for being so correct and whenever someone is ready I too will file a Class Action Lawsuit with you we only need 3 people. However, these people have already left the Boca Raton Address and have set up base in another place which I do know so we must be quick and as you know the real people are not in this country at all, they only distribute from here. I have been doing my own investigating to show my Banks Investigative Team what they fail to see. Go Figure!

Well they got me too! Never got product, and suspicious charge on my debit 89.13, Not cool! Now I must Hot card, my debit, and reRoute all my account activity. Ok, well, I'm sorry any of us had to experienced this BS... But I suppose, a lesson learned! Don't buy online, unless you know the company..or the search engine well... Always try to buy through PAYPAL... it's secure, and trusted.

Hint, try to: Tool bar: VIEW, SOURCE a site and look @ its HTML Codes for information on the companies or hosting IP's

Best of luck.

I ordered a free sample, but it didn't arrive for a while. Then I forgot about it The free sample [7 capsules] arrive followed in two days by a bottle of 60 tablets. The capsules had not effect, but the tablets did. When I checked my charge card statement, I noted a number of stange charges, all showing different toll free numbers. However, each number went to the same place in Utah, though the package came from Florida. A recording was played that I had to call betwee 6 & 9 PM Mountain time. By the time I reached them, the second bottle of tabs arrived, which I refused and returned. They were very rude when I got through to them and they argued with me. They told me that I should have read the TERMS. I finally told them to cancel my order and that I would have the charges removed from my credit card. Capital One removed all of their charges.

Extreme Acai Berry & LifeCleanse

This is a TOTAL SCAM! I was lead to this so called 'journal' about a girl who had lost weight using these two products, and a link near the bottom leads you to this so-called "FREE TRIAL" of both products.

Their request is that you give them your card information to pay for 'shipping and handling' and that that's all you will be charged.

DON'T DO IT!!!

They automatically subscribe you to their subscription service and you won't get taken off of it. Every call I've made had been a dead end. One guy even suggested I "Google" the name of the product to find the information!!

I've been scammed out of $180 that I can't afford. (I'm a poor college student, like I have that kind of money!) I'm calling my bank to get my card canceled and to dispute the charge. Every time this company sends me something, the company name on my statement is different, and the return label on the packaging says it's from a PO Box in Sandy, Utah.

I'm definately reporting this to every agency that I can. BBB, internet fraud sites, attorney general, or whoever will listen. The website that scammed me is here:

aubreysdietblog.com

Don't fall for anything like this!!

Acai Extreme - also linked with "Primetime Saving"

Like many folks above, I unfortunately found this site *after* giving my credit card info to this "business".

Luckily, I did find it before I was charged $89. I have
cancelled my card today and am hoping no more charges show up in the process time it takes to close the account.

Not so luckily, I did get charged by "Primetime Savings". Since I have not used this credit for *anything* (it's a new account) other than Acai Extreme for ordering online it hardly seems coincidence.

My credit card company gave me the number for Primetime Savings and after being on hold about ten minutes a woman came on the line.

I am pretty certain she was actually at her home as I could hear children shouting in the background.

Supposedly my "account" which I "set up" is now cancelled and the charge will be removed.
I am waiting for my confirmation.

Their number by the by is: 866 335 7477

They had my name, e-mail and mailing address.

Just another warning...

Buyer BEWARE
This was a hard lesson learned. I did not see where you were going to get charged the practically $90 until it showed up on my bank statement, and like all the others, I called and was put on hold for a good while and told i could return it, but after reading looking up this sight and reading what others had told by that time I just had to cancel my card and didn't bother sending it back, cause then I'd have to give them my new account info to get a credit that would never happen.

I am sooooo upset, frustrated & tired of calling their customer service #!! I don't knwo what else to do about this company; they are actually all the same company & they charged my credit card even after I called to cancel & now because teh customer service rep did not cancel my account - they won't give me my money back!! It is just ridiculous and hurtful... all in teh name of trying to get into shape again & not wanting to invest in a gym membership - I was charged $89.31 TWICE and they won't give me my money back!!
Then when U call & FINALLY get through to someone, they mute your call, people are laughing in the background, they keep saying no supervisor is there or in a meeting... just ridiculous; I just can't endure this anymore - I had to cancel my credit card to get them to stop billing and wasted so much time on the phone calling back & forth and some days NEVER getting to speak to anyone... so sad - please don't buy from these con artists! I won't wish this on anyone - I told the last rep that karma is a bitch & hung up!

#371 - Maggie - 02/04/2009 - 19:00

ACAI BERRY

THIS IS A SCAM!!! I SAW A PENDING CHARGE OF $89.31 FROM MAINPERFORMACELABS. WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!! So I called by bank and they gave me the phone #866-206-8866. I called that number asking what this was and I was told that I sign up to receive Acai Berry. I really thought I cancelled this but she told me I didn’t. I told her I want to cancel and to please give me the company’s information and question “why do I need that information” she really did not want to give me that info. and she kept on questioning me. I told her I needed for myself and she gave it to me. The company’s name that she gave me is Fulfillment Center and the address is 4650 SW 51 St. Suite 711, Davie, FL 33314. The name of the company and the pending charge on my bank account does not match…. They are scamming people left and right. I only signed up for a free trial back in October and them I started to get all these charges on my bank account of Fit Factory for $29.95, Total Cleanse $78.84 and now in February Acai Berry $89.31!!!! I reported them to my bank as fraud the bank teller told me she is getting a lot of these disputes from this product. I had to cancel by bank card because of this scam... I am frustrated and i wonder what will be the next charge or how many more victims??

#372 - Monica Castro - 02/05/2009 - 12:51

Acai Berry

I see a lot of people already went through what I'm going through right now. And it was all so innocent :-(

It was just a trial. And ever since, 3 months already, I've been having the same problem.
I keep calling to cancel. All you get is something called "Customer Service". When you ask what are they servicing, they just keep repeating "This is Customer Service".
English is not my native language, and I do speak with an accent, but come on! After 10 years in USA, and working with customers in California, the most diversified state, probably...I had a really hard time understanding what the person on the other side was saying. And what is really even more annoying is, that when you say you don't understand them, they don't even try to put it in other words, just keep repeating the same sentence, or words, in the same order and with the same tone.
You ask them how come, after you already called a month ago and cancelled - and you give them the person's name and Cancellation # - you are, again, being charged?!? They just say "sorry Mam, my colleague did not cancel".. and that's it?!? I tried talking to a Supervisor, I tried to at least get his/her name.. nothing.
Per the "Customer Service Representative", in order to get your money back, you have to mail back the product.You are responsible for the shipping charges, even if it's their mistake. Then they "promise" to refund your money...I'm waiting for that, but I just read some of the postings, and I got really discouraged.. some people are waiting for months >-(

I'm also calling my credit card company to dispute the charge and also to ask them to issue a new card. I wonder, if there was an option where you could ask them to reject any requests for payments from a particular vendor? The problem is, as somebody already mentioned, that the shipment is coming from different senders every time!!! The common denominator is the City - SANDY, UT.

Be smart and don't deliberately expose yourselves to this SCAM!
I wonder, what the options are, to legally stop this! >-(

I was scamed by thease people, I talked to my credit card company and said I wanted to despuite the charges. I gave Extream Acaiberry my credit card details for the post and handeling on the FREE TRIAL NOT the Dietstore or Nuibody or any other of their companies. My creditcard rep said they would get the money back and they DID.
Talking to thease Aholes gets you no where thet won't answer your emails. Talk to your Bank or credit people and say you would like to Despuite the charges and they should help you....cancel your card.

I ordered this junk..like a dummy...and being the type that does not go over bank statements in a timely manner, I was billed 3 times before realizing it. I already sent the packages back automatically as soon as I pulled them out of the mailbox. I write "RETURN TO SENDER" and "DID NOT ORDER" on any packages that I do not recognize the sender. I called to find out what the $89.31 was and of course was told that I waited too long to cancel. NOW GET THIS!!! THERE WAS ANOTHER CHARGE 3 TIMES FOR $29.95 FROM "FIT-FAC" THEY TOLD ME THAT WHEN I PURCHASED ACAI BERRY I ALSO AGREED TO SPONSOR THEIR WEBSITE AT $29.95/MONTH. LOVELY..WHEN WILL I LEARN??????????

My Aunt is a Pharmacist at Walmart and encouraged me to try the ACAI in pill form that they sell. Well, I am pleased to say that 2 months later after following the directions on the bottle of taking 2 pills a day which I choose to take both at night I have lost a total of 36 pounds. I STRONGLY encourage all of you to just go to Walmart and buy this product which runs about $8.00 a bottle. You will be extremely pleases.. Good Luck to you all.

AcaiBerry Extreme

I have exactly the same story as Dano #381 - not only did I fail to notice the extra $89.31 missing from my bank statement for 3 (embarrassing!) months, I was also charged the "fitfac" $29.95/mo fee for "use of their website," which - of course - I had NO IDEA even existed.
I have tried to cancel twice, and finally had to close out my credit card because despite assurances otherwise, they continued to charge me for this product.
I was told that I could not return the product or get any of my money refunded. I plan to use this wonderful web log of complaints to supplement my fraud claim to my bank against this company. I have never been the victim of internet fraud like this, and it's a really horrible experience.
I'd just like to thank everyone who's contributed here for their stories - it's comforting to know I'm not the only one who was duped, but I also hope this record might help bring legal action against this criminal company.
Oh, and the Extreme AcaiBerry product? Sugar pills, anyone? About as effective as a kids' vitamin.

Acai Berry - Colon Cleanse - SCAM SCAM SCAM

THIS IS HOW I HOPEFULLY TOOK CARE OF THIS::: I got caught up in the Acai Berry - Colon Cleanse scam as well. I had three $83.00+ charges on my credit card before I realized what was happening. The following is what I did and so far it is has been successful. I started with contacting the Better Business Bureau in Florida for FWM Laboratories. Then I contacted my credit card company and submitted fraud alerts for the three charges. I also had my credit card company issue me a new number (as if I had lost my credit card) I then called the numbers listed on my credit card statement for each company (2 charges were same company and one charge was the other company) and was able to get through to a person on each of the two numbers and received a cancellation number on the one (from a very foreign sounding person) and was told I would receive an email confirmation on the other one. Never received it - ended up calling back and getting an email address. I emailed the company to confirm my cancellation and to get a return address to return the product. After getting a lecture by email on how I had agreed to the auto delivery program they told me they would reimburse me half of the 80 something charge and I could keep the product. (Yeah like I would ever take any of those pills now!!!). To date, my credit card company had deducted the three charges. However, I am still going to check my credit card online daily just in case. That's how I did it. I covered as many bases as I could. Good luck to all. FYI - The two numbers I called ((Acaiberry&lifecleans 866-949-0138)) and ((Ids*max Colon 866-8707042 Ca)) >-(

Extrene Acaiberry ( Full Fillment)

I called and cancel when I went to the health food store and found the real acai berry juice for a fraction of the price. Also, the trail didn't work. The first guy I spoke to was very nice and stated he'd cancel and credit my account. It never happen, I called the bank and had it researched. Extreme Acaiberry sent the letter staying that I was to be charged and the bank is going to debit my account. I called Extreme again and guess what... you gotta no record of the pervious call. The customer rep couldn\'t give me an address (the call was to another country) and he stated his name was Hilton (like the hotel). With his heavy accent I sure his name is \"Hilton\". If you want to loose weight there are no quick fixes. Eat less and proper, walk at least 20 mintues a day, drink a lot of water, no sodas, cut back on take out foods. Yes, it takes longer but hey you were going to start in Jan. it\'s March so comon let\'s get started so by June at least my heart will feel better :-D

DO NOT USE ACAI BURN. Whether the product works or not is not the issue. READ CAREFULLY. You get sent a month’s supply for the 14 day trial and if you don’t return the bottle right away you get charged $59.95. When they say “and once you choose to continue” - you choose to continue if you haven’t sent the bottle back – at your expense. All charges are non- refundable. You get charged $1 for every transaction. Not refundable. You get charged $6.95 for “Web Access” – nonrefundable. You get charged $9.95 for Comprehensive Weight Loss eBook package – also not refundable. AND you have to cancel each one individually and they don’t tell you that when you call to cancel the first charge you didn’t want. It may in their way tell you all this in the ad but be careful you really understand.

Acai Berry Detox

I too got caught up in this scam. I received the product too late to cancel within the 14 day limit...called to inquire what was going on AFTER I saw that my account was charged, since I had no idea I'd be charged. Talked to someone in India who just kept repeating over and over that I would not get a refund. The charge stayed on my account as a pending item...oh, did I mention the international transaction fees??...then went away. The company keeps trying to send the charge through, and I get assessed a fee from my bank each time. I called the customer support again...they are showing that my account is paid...so I am going to cancel my debit card. I can't believe I was so naive! I am telling everyone I know not to do this!

Acai Berry Detox

Hey, I just want everyone to know that there IS a real company that sells Acai Berry extract at only 7 dollars a bottle. Go here: http://www.vitacost.com/Natrol-Acai-Extract. You can also get it with green tea for only 3 dollars for 20 bags. I haven't got my shipment yet, but I'm excited. Too bad this was AFTER I'd fallen into the con of Acai Berry Detox!

I called the 866-949-0138 number and cancelled my "membership" right away, but they say it has already been shipped. I'm going to refuse the package right away. Hopefully they won't bill me the 80 dollars. If they do I'm disputing.

Acai Detox (i think)

There are so many acai pills I am not sure which one I ordered. So I oredered it , then read the review, brilliant I know. So I called my bank probably 30 min after I ordered it and said I ordered a free trial paying shipping but read reviews that told me they will charge me the 80 bucks in the next day or two. Before the product is even shipped. The representative said all I have to do is report my card as lost or stolen, and we did it right there. So I paid the S and H, I have a new debit card, and I called a number and it was all electronic and I canceled my subscription. Now they can't get me :D

acai berry edge

Acai berry did not help me loose weight at all. It did however make me go the restroom a lot, but no weight loss which is what I wanted. I immediately called and canceled their services after I got charged $89 for the 2 weeks. Three days later I get another acai on the mail. When I called to cancel they did not tell me another bottle is on its way. I have called my bank and reported my card stolen to prevent any more future charges.

Acai Berry

I was reading something about these pills and decided to buy this "free trail". I submitted my order with the s&h fee, then I read this and not 2 minutes after submitting my order my bank calls me from the fraud department asking me if I order this. I told them yes, but I would cancel, they said the money was going out of the country,so I called the number my bank gave me 877-205-5816 and called right away, but because I just submitted my order they could not find me. They advised me to call back tomorrow and they would be happy to cancel my order. Lets hope that happens.

oh my goodness! thank you guys! i was thinking of getting this but after reading all these negative reviews they can forget about it! you guys are all lifesavers and just saved me my 90 bucks!

Exteme AcaiBerry

I like most all the other reviewers ordered the free sample only mine was $5.95, but the cancellation in 14 days was not mentioned in the advertizement. At least now they have been made to put that up front, so you don\\\\\\\'t get blind sided when they automatically send you another bottle for nearly $100. Luckily my credit card company reported them as Scammers and I had no problem getting the charges removed. :-P

Acai Berry

This is the biggest consumer rip off in history. Hundreds of dollars were charged to me credit card for 'subscriptions' etc. I too had to cancel my card. I suggest everyone write to ABC news, Oprah and Rachel Ray. People assume that because these celebrities endorse the product that all is well. Maybe big buck celebrities will sue them (as both Oprah and RR state they do not endorse the product!!) Maybe let O and RR know that you will boycott their shows and products until they stand up for the little guys!

Extreme Acai Berry

I was able to get my $90 back only after reporting the company to their local BBB.

Every phone call directly to the company was horrible - rude representatives and they would just tell me they could not help me. I asked for supervisors and only ever got voicemails. I canceled my card and reported to the BBB.

Acai Berry

I too got sucked into this product. I thought I was getting a free sample and only had to pay shipping charges, but instead my credit was billed $89.95. I immediately contacted my bank who is going to investigate the company for fraud if the charges are not reversed.
