I signed up for the "RISK FREE trail offer" of this Acai Berry weight loss supplement. The website states it only cost $5.95 for shipping & handling for a 15 day trail order but in reality you are locking yourself into a monthly AUTOMATIC BILLING program of $99.85!!!!!!! You would never know it unless you clicked on the T&C link and read the "Terms & Conditions" at the very bottom of the page.
In fact, they are so deceptive that they go so far as to SPELL OUT the monthly amounts you will be billed (so those who actually open the link might not notice the insane charges!!!) instead of using numeric symbols which would be more visible when scanning over a typical T&C. You will be billed each month sixty four dollars and ninety five cents for automatic refills of the product PLUS nine dollars and ninety five cents shipping & handling unless you call and cancel.
On top of all this, there is a balloon offer on the main page that states "Plus FREE GIFT PASS to Live Lean for Life weight loss management plan". In the T&C, you are told that when you subscribe for the trail offer of the berry supplement that you automatically are joining the LL4L program and you will automatically be billed twenty four dollars and ninety five cents per month for membership UNLESS you call and cancel.
Since when does "Free" cost "$24.95 per month??? When I called Acai Advanced and cancelled, they mentioned NOTHING about the Live Lean for Life that needed to be cancelled at a separate number (888-272-6483). I think the companies are owned by the same person or affiliated in some way so at least some money is made from cancellations. SCAM is written all over this one!!!! DO NOT FALL FOR IT!
$64.95 + $9.95 + $24.95 = $99.85 (WHAT A SCAM)
NOTE: Customer Service at Acai Advanced was very nice and prompt in handling my cancellation. The only thing LL4L Customer Service would say was that my charge was "NON REFUNDABLE!" Good luck!
