Direct Alternatives, LLC This company only has a P.O. Box Address; P.O. Box 167 PAST DUE BALANCE ON FREE TRIAL?? Portland, Maine

I ordered a free trial of this product on May 12, 2012 and was told I only had to pay the shipping cost. I was asked if I wanted to signup for the monthly subscription. I said No, I just want to try the product to see if it works, if it helps with my weight loss efforts, I will order more.

I gave them the number for a prepaid bank card that only had a small amount left on it, so I gave them that number so that they would not be able to charge more than I had agreed to. 

Today October 25, 2012 I received a letter stating that I have a past due account with the balance of $79.90. I had completely forgotten about this order as the product showed no increase in the pace of my weight loss after trying it for one (1) month.

I don't plan on paying the $79.00, and hope it doesn't affect my excellent credit rating. It's late here, so I plan on calling them in the morning, and letting them know that I plan on turning the matter over to my lawyer.
