Like Linda of Richmond,VA I was a member of a local office of LA Weight Loss. In almost an identical story I was told that I could visit other centers if I was travelling, and that if I pre-paid for a certain amount of time I would receive all sorts of special discounts in maintenance. I pre-paid for a year program.
I was also duped into pre-paying for LA lite bars at a "special once a year discounted price". I went out of town for business to find that I was not able to go to other centers, but was reassured that this was just a mistake, and that they would "change my profile".
Then I went out of town for a week long business trip and came home to find that my local center had closed...out of business. I tried to contact the national office to no avail, as they would not return either my calls or voicemails. I have tried to contact other offices in other areas to try and get a hold of someone to help me and they just give me the run around.
I have now lost the support I thought I had, not to mention a ton of cash! If there is anyone out there that has any ideas on what to do I would appreciate them!
