Acai Berry Detox - Liars? Definitely!!

Well, I caved in. I kept reading articles about how people are losing weight using the Acai Berry/Colon Cleanser diet. So I decided to try it. It took almost 2 weeks for the pills to arrive. Luckily I wasn't on the 14 day free trial or I would have been SOL with them hitting my credit card for $89.95. Instead, after I filled out all the blanks on the order form, I changed my mind and "X"d out of Explorer. Apparently they had my information already stored and the next day started calling me every hour until I answered. The lady convinced me that it would only cost me $39.95 for a 30 day supply. I had until the end of the 30 days to call and cancel and they would "refund my money" while I was on the phone. The next day, I kept getting calls again. This time it was from a company claiming to be the SAME company (but different number/area code) and they wanted to sell me the Colon Cleanser. I told them to just ship me what I originally ordered and that I wasn't interested in the Colon Cleanser. After a week, I hadn't received any kind of confirmation and no product. So, I tried to call the Customer Service 866#. Good luck getting hold of someone. They put you on what I like to call permahold. They do however refer you to log onto a website and talk to a live representative there. I opted for that option. I was chatting with a live person and cancelled my order. At the same time, I told her I wanted a refund. She said "yes". 10 days after placing my original order, STILL no product and now no refund. So, I jumped online again and talked to "Jerome". He told me that yes the account was cancelled and that the first 30 supply has already been shipped. However, they shipped me BOTH the Acai Berry and the Life Cleanse. Excuse me? I didn't ORDER the Life Cleanse. All he could tell me was that it was a combo pack and that since it has already shipped, they would not refund my money until I returned the bottles..... that I hadn't received yet. So, I mentioned to him that I was going to keep MY promise and I was going to prevent them from taking any additional money from me and I was going to post on multiple websites how they are frauds in what they tell you. I cancelled my credit card and my credit card company is issuing me a new card. I have also posted complaints about them. If you decide to order the Acai Berry, I will post links at the bottom of this blog for a more legit company to order from that are MUCH less expensive. Whatever you do, DO NOT order from: www.acaiberrydetox.com with a customer service number of 866-949-0138 or a website of www.myordersupport.com BAD COMPANY that LIES to the customers. (I even have both of the conversations saved if I ever need to prove anything)

Long story short. Day 13 and the box finally arrives. I have thought about dumping all the product out of the bottles and returning just the "bottles" as instructed but I figured I still would not get my refund and besides, I cancelled my card so they couldn't charge it with fraudulent charges. So, I figured I would just take the pills and hope that they work. I will blog my results as I have time. Wish me luck.

Now for the legit websites I said I would post:

After I finish my first 30 days, if this is working, you can bet your ass that I will be ordering from this company instead.
