I ordered a a free trial product from this company for $2.95 Oct. 09 2009 of which was properly billed to my credit card. I have the invoice and the paperwork from the website regarding the order. I was billed an additional $87.62 on Oct. 30th. I did not authorize this charge. I was later informed that in the terms and conditions it is stated there. However these terms and conditions are deceptive and they do not make any attempt to inform people that there are extenuating circumstances and that this service signs you up to more services. I had to contact my bank and document this basic "fraud" as there is no recourse... The merchant hides behind the technicality of the law to ensnare customers unwittingly. I agree that as the consumer it is my responsibility to read these before a purchase etc... That being said, this company is deceitful and does strategic placement of these terms and conditions with the intention of billing individuals for a service they were more than likely not even aware of. My intent was to try the product and if it worked, purchase more of it. I did use it and was disappointed with the results. I was also not informed in the paperwork from the product when received nor on the purchase invoice from the website that I was signing up for multiple monthly memberships. One "Dazzle Smile" - $87.62 and then some other company "World Club Fitness" $24.95. I have spent 2 hours on the phone between these "Scam Artists" and my Bank to stop the service that was initiated by my purchase of a simple trial product.
