[REPLY]
I fully agree with the previous reviewer. I too was caught with a "try before you buy" free offer and you only pay postage. Beware for now they have your card details.................Hidden away in the small print they tell you that this is an order and you have fourteen days to cancel or they will charge you £54.95 and send you another carton of rubbish. Companies like this one hide behind words that have you believe that they operate in Britain and therefore you feel safe in the knowledge that you have the law on your side in event of dishonest trading. In fact these companies use British fulfillment companies to appear british and in reality you have to say goodbye to your money. Your credit card will not help because you did not read the small print. On the face of it they have not acted illegally but are confidence tricksters nontheless. Oh.... and the product is rubbish too, with the psyillium content in such ridiculously small quantities as too be beyond useless. Do not entertain the thought of dealing with this company.
Be very careful of this company and others like it. I came across Tropicleanse from a freebee site, and the con is they razzle dazzle you with false hope, telling you, you will get 30 capsules and all you have to do is pay the shipping cost of £2.99 and you will receive this miracle diet aid. Somewhere, and I don't know where and I certainly didn't see it, it apparently tells you after they have your credit details that you have 14 days to cancel or they will send you another bottle and charge an incredible £52.91 for just 60 capsules. Immediately I phoned their customer service and was basically told, too bad and should've read the fine print. I explained I wasn't interested, didn't
want them, and couldn't afford to throw away that kind of money.
The extra con is, I was given a short amount of time, as I didn't understand their terms (their words), they would take off £23.95. How generous, I was being forced to pay whatever they could get. Oh, and by the way, the capsules were absolutely useless for myself, and I did follow the directions. Major ripoff, and tomorrow I will be taking it to Trading Stds, and hopefully they will help. Buyer beware, and if it sounds too good, it probably is!!CON!!
