A few days ago, I caved and ordered a free trial of the Acai Berry Power 500 online. It indicates that it is a great weight loss product. The issue is that they insist on charging you for product that has not shipped. Their scam is a follows. They will automatically charge you for the next bottle, eventhough the initial "free" trial may not have been received yet. In addition, they have a no returns no refund policy, which means, if you Finally receive the product, and you do not like it....its too bad, because your next bottle is on its way and they can not refund your $$.
Quite a good scam I must say...but in my opinion it is taking consumer for a ride. I am all for taking responsibility for trying the product and either accepting or cancelling any future orders....but how can I be expected to accept a product which never arrived? In fact the Service Rep even admitted that the trial shipment had just shipped and it was late, and that second bottle also shipped.
When I called to complain the "supervisor" (with a smirk/non professional manerism) indicated that he could read me the terms and conditions and that it is not their responsibility it is the consumers responsibility to read all of the terms and conditions. Which of course are misleading.
WARNING: do not fall for this scam....I am fighting the charges with my credit card team...but I can't guarantee Ill win.
