My Diet Patches
Ripoff, takes ruthless and shameless advantage of people who have weight issues. You sign you for a 7 day supply and they bill you for $170.00 later. DON'T BE SCAMMED like me

I am 17 and signed up for the "free" 7 day supply, but being an opportunist I used my siblings names and email addresses to sign up for five more weeks of supplies.
At first my mother was only billed for those first 6 and then early one morning the bank called her and told her that a suspicious company trying to make numerous withdrawals from her bank account.
She immediately went in to the bank where they proceeded to tell her that there was a company trying to take $170 dollars out of the bank. She closed that account in hopes that they could not take out any more. A couple of days later, when she called into the bank to ask for progress the bank told her that her assets were in the negative.
They had not closed the account in time and the My Diet Patches withdrew $170 dollars 5 times. Bringing the total to $850 dollars. My mother had told me about the situation the day that the bank had called her.
I first sent emails to sales at mydietpatches.com and they were sent back saying that:*Please note that your previous email will not be delivered. You
must choose 1 of the two options above in order to receive support
So I sent an email from every email account that I had used to customercare at mydietpatches.com, to cancel the order, which by the way had not been placed.
I never received word back from them and instead received 5 packages of the 3 month supply, which I promptly sent back to the sender. Mean while, my mother has been on contact with the bank, and she has filled out a form stating that the withdrawals were unauthorized and illegal. The bank manager is working on getting the company to put the money they took out from her account back.
Until we get our money back, we only have enough money to pay for insurance, and the mortgage. When my mother closed her account the bank had to take her debit card, and she never has cash. The only way we've been able to pay for groceries is because we receive food stamps from the government.
Not only has My Diet Patches taken nearly $1,000 dollars illegally from my family. They also don't work at all. Don't get pulled into this rip-off and scam.
The ironic thing, is that this company is was on our local news this weeks as one of the top 4 diets in Arizona. Also because it is one of the As Seen on TV it is at numerous malls at the As Seen on TV stores.
Don't get sucked in. Americans, me included, need to stop looking for the easy way out. That's how these people rip - off and take advantage of us.
