The only safe thing you can do is close that account. You will continue to see unauthorized charges.

There have been testimonies posted on this website where people get a new number but a few months down the line did receive new unauthorized charges on their new account. Scandalous!

For Australian orderers, the numbers will say 'disconnected' or you will call another company. in front of the numbers place 0011. i ordered my products last night and am in the middle of cancelling them. i did order from acaiburn.com, so im not sure for other websites, but i had no trouble from 2 of the 3 companies. the 3rd is closed due to time zone differences so i am waiting for them to open.

Cancelling comprehensive weight loss eBook: [protected] (sorry, not sure of times, though similar to acaiburn times)

there is a 24 day no charge period from the comprehensive weight loss, so they said i had no charges, will check and let you all know within the fortnight.

shipping will be charged for the acaiburn, but so long as i send them the bottle back, with the reason why i cancelled and the order number inside, along with the order number written on the outside they will refund the 59.95 and i will have no more charges. items need to have a tracking number when sent, so if any problems you give them that number and they will check, see where the bottle is and you will get the refund and it also needs to be insured.

This is a WARNING. Do not order a "14 day" trial from these folks. First off - I got NO RESULTS from the product.

Buried deep in disclaimer--land the company claims that for "shipping cost" they will send a 14-day TRIAL OFFER of thier product.

What is not well spelled out is that you PAY FULL PRICE if you do not promptly cancel the "FREE TRIAL" and sent the unused portion back to them before the 14-days is up. THEY SEND YOU A FULL 30-DAY SUPPLY then expect you to remember to call in 14 days to cancel -- YEAH -- RIGHT!

They then automatically re-order every month for you without verification from you, and, of course, they charge the shipments to the credit card you provided to pay for the shipping for the "14 day" trial.

IN OTHER WORDS ... THERE IS NO FREE TRIAL -- You will pay FULL PRICE FOR THE "TRIAL" OFFER.

I hope the Iowa State Attorney General shuts them down.
There should be hard core legislation regarding these types of scams and a very harsh penalty if caught.
Millions of dollars are being scammed from innocent victims on a daily basis.
Some banks are willing to do charge backs on these scams.
Everyone should check with their own Banking Institutions for information on charge backs.
The product may be a good one, but the price gouging scammers will always ruin a good thing!
Please join forces with the thousands if not millions of other people who have been targeted and violated by these scammers and lets put a stop to them.
There is power in numbers!

Decided to give their free trial a try, but as soon as I saw that the cc charge was from Israel, I became suspisious and did some researh. Found this site and knew I had been had. I called immediately after reading these postings(Feb. 25) and was told "no, problem, you are within your cancellation period "(before March 1). I packaged the remaining pills (50 of the 60) and took to the post office and mailed with a delivery confirmation. I also e-mailed the company and received an e-mail telling me that my cc # had been removed from their system. Next e-mail was an alert from my cc company telling me their was pending charge from Israel for another $4.95. I alerted my cc company of the suspected fraud and flagged charges such as these, hopefully this will stop the problem.

This morning, I will call and cancel with the other two internet companies that I was apparently enrolled with, but have never accessed.

What a learning experience, . Never again!

I placed an order for acai burn late on a Friday night. My husband then alerted me early the next morning about all kinds of complaints about this company. Early Saturday morning, I called to cancel, only to be told that their "systems were down." I was told to call back in a few hours, that they could not even take my information to cancel the order when their system was back in operation. I called again 3 hours later, only to be told the same thing, that their computer systems were down, and to try to use the live chat on the website. Of course, it was down too. I called the next day (Sunday) and was told that my order had already shipped -- amazing -- if they couldn't access my info to cancel, then how could my order possibly have shipped? At any rate, I was also told that my CC would be charged and that to get my money back I would have to return the product, insured, with tracking, yada yada. I then had to call no less than two other numbers to make sure I wasn't charged with the fees for the Insiders Edition (which came through in heiroglyphics when I tried to open it) or for the other monthly subscription. One of the numbers was only available Mon - Fri, 9am to 5pm MST -- how convenient for those of use who live on the East Coast and leave for work before 7:30 am and get home after 6pm. Well, thanks to the snowstorm today, I actually did get through to cancel all this garbage. I personally think the attorney general should go after these frauds.

This company is horrible! I ordered the free trial which was delivered in about 10 days. Approximatly 1 month later have have received (4) $1.00 charges all to different companies, $4.95 for enrollment in a healthy living program, $9.95 for enrollment in another program, some food choices thing, 2 different mail-out programs with my membership information (Financial Advisor and Simply Yours) which I never registered for and upon calling found out that I would have soon been charged for, plus another few foreign transaction fees. The 800 numbers for these companies are present on your credit card statements to call about the charges, but when you call them you are given a different number to call. All in all it took me approx 2 hours to make all of these calls to cancel everything that I never signed up for in the first place. I had also received 2 charges for Acai on my credit card within 10 days of each other (I had only received my first shipment past the free trial) When I called them to cancel for their dishonesty and have them resolve the additional billing, they informed me that the two charges I received were correct. There is NOT a free trial as they lead you to believe. You pay the $4.95 shipping for them to be sent to you. After you have taken all the pills and there is no way to return them, they BILL YOU the full price for them. The only way you can get out of it is if you send back the pills which you can't because you have already ingested them and guess what you have to pay for the shipping to do that. I had also ordered Colon Cleanse with this as had been recommended on the site - some of these companies listed above may be from them also. Its so hard to sort it out. They kept saying all of this was included in their terms and conditions. Lesson well learned.

I ordered this Acai Burn a few months ago, and cancelled soon after receiving it. They never told me that I would still be charged another $4.95 for something called Insider Tips, whether or not you ever accessed the info online or not, they have no way of knowing that. They never tell you that you need to cancel this part of the program as well as the supplement. Watch out for this company, they are good at charging you this small amt. to many people who don't read their statements monthly to watch out for these small charges. Is this a fair practice? Shouldn't this all be able to be cancelled when you stop one product and the other one is related to taking the product and receiving tips? They also told me that they are not able to return my money but that I wouldn't be charged anymore. I had to a ask for a confirmation number before she hung up on me. Anybody have this same problem not being able to receive a refund? Sylvia

I ordered and cancelled within the 14 day 'trial' period, only to find that I had only cancelled being on their programme and the 'trial' they'd sent me was 30 days worth and that I'll be charged £59.95 USD.

I asked why they called it a trial if in fact it is one and the same as their so called 60 Day money back guarentee? No answer on the end of the line! I pointed out that it was false advertising. No answer. I was told that I could return the pills and get my money back, but had to put my order number on the outside of the package as well as within the pack and that it would take approx 14 working days (!) before any money taken would be reimbursed to my account from the date they receive it! So however you look at it, they take your money and as it stands now, I still don't know if it ever really gets reimbursed.

I'm furious!

I had the website come up at my facebook site saying a free trail of a weightloss supplement, 4.95 for postage was the only payment and when I filled in the transaction it told me it just took 24.95 from my account, which is 40 australian, certainly not what I would have ever agreed to, they seem to be uncontactable and I have defenitely been scammed, what should I do?

This is a big rip off.
How can you give a 14 day trial and include the transit days?
Also, some subscription scam that takes another 10.00 from my account?
They said that a refund will be issued as soon as a tracking number is provided...

This is all a lie and I want in if there is a class action fraud suit filed!

Got the free trial thing for $4..95 which was nothing more than Green Tea extract, which can be purchased at any dollar general store for $2..95. Once dissatisfied, I called to cancel, any further shipments. They cancelled the future shipments alright, but still continued to bill my credit card $59..95. If that's not enough, I then get charges for $4..95, $1..00, $9..95, & $1..00 from these other things they enrolled me in, without my knowledge. Oprah did us, a real disservice, by endorsing these thieves. I used to have respect for the lady till now. I will never trust her again. Makes you wonder, if she got paid to endorse these swindlers. Or maybe she pocketed some of my money! Hmmm!

ACAI Burn isan online offer for the ACAI berry supplement seen on TV. They offer you a sample for $4.95. The problem is when you accept the sample and enter your cred it card info, the trouble starts. They state that you have enrolled in three programs all toll and each begins to charge your credit card. I received 5 different charges in one month. The credit card company states they are getting hundreds of calls and people don't know how to cancel this. The CC company said you agreed to a monthly charge and it will follow you even if you cancel the card.
The CC company advised me to contact these companies and cancel the "subscriptions". I call ACAI Burn at the toll free number on their website. I must admit I beat up on this poor call center girl and got the cancellation numbers for the other two companies. At first they will cancel but not issue a refund. It takes some persistence to get the refund. The toll free cancellation number for "Insider's Secret" is [protected]. The toll free cancellation number for "Comprehensive Weight Loss" is [protected]. I didn't even know who these companies were. They offer online information and tell you that when you ordered the sample from ACAI Burn that you automatically enrolled in their companies.
Most of these people are operating from overseas. I have had charges from as far away as Irael! Don't be fooled by these guys. Don't enter your credit card for any free samples. They freely share your credit card info and then bill you continuously without giving you info or a chance to stop the charges.

I made the mistake of trying two different products. Neither worked and both charged my card for several other "services". This is really a buyer beware climate.

I too had to learn my lesson the hard way. I also ordered a "free trial" for Total Cleanse that Acai Burn suggests
you use at the same time. In my case, fortunately I had not opened the pills before the charges started coming in rapid succession! One charge after another from companies I'd never heard of, or authorized charges for. They charged me 59.95 and 78.95 and 9.95 and monthly fees, ongoing membership fees, in addition to the shipping fees. I immediately cancelled the orders and was able to refund the unopened bottles for a full refund. More charges kept coming and after calling many toll free numbers, I hopefully have this nipped! I am cancelling the credit card that was used to ensure they don't give my information to anyone else.
I think 20/20, Dateline or a program of such should contacted as well as the better business bureau. This is a HUGE scam, taking advantange of what I imagine to be thousands of women. The product doesn't work anyway! DO NOT FALL INTO THIS SCAM TRAP...STAY AWAY!

Ah, if you read the 'terms' about how to get your money back if you are not satisfied with the product, you will see that it clearly states that you get the 14 day free trial and after the 14 day trial, you will be billed the full amount. If you are note satisfied after that, you can return the product and get your money back (except for the shipping cost). Also, in the terms, it stated that you will automatically be enrolled in the Insider Secrets E-Book and the Comprehensive Weight Loss and you have to call them separately if you want to cancell. For those two, you can't get your refund. Some peeps are just too lazy to do this and say that they got ripped off.

I ordered the products (I lost 5 pounds in 3 days) but had to return them for medical reason. I followed the directions and got my refund.

19th March 2017, Dear Sirs,
I ordered the trial of AcaiBurn tablets on 19th February 2017. and given an order number. Delivery supposed to be 4 - 7 days.
Delivery was not until 18th March 2017 and posted from France.
The charge was to be $4.95 for 2 weeks trial but on 20th February a charge against my credit card of $24.95 (which of course became $39.21Australian currency) was made.
I could not download any information on Insider Secrets to Weight Loss or Weight Loss E-book Package as they published and have had no luck in trying to contact them.
I have taken a copy of the e-mail sent and will return the pills unopened.
A real Scam and one I did not think I would be sucked into.

I got the same issue what they did is they said 14 days to cancel after they take payment from you and then there is another catch the 14 days is not from when you receive it but from the date of purchase. So you think you have time but you don't you call them the same day you order that you don't want it and you want it canceled but no lock they still send it over ... you want to send it back too bad it arrived the days the 14 days passed so you get billed then you call from Canada they automatically close the phone at the 23rd second you call with a USA calling card the surprisingly answer then they say okay done it is canceled but you still get billed then you call again they say it is cancel for the next month and they can't guarantee if the system has already passed it for shipping if so then I will still get billed so what Id id is cancel my credit card yes all this to get a free 3$ worth trial of ### that did not work at all and scammed my pockets for so much I hope they die.

I was SCAMMED also. They ultimately took approximately $150.00. I spent last evening researching, calling and chating online with them and this is what I found. It appears that Acaiburn [protected]) and WuYi [protected]) are related and I believe reside in the same building. They have a sister company named "EBOOK which JUST ONE COMPANY NAMED COMPREHENSIVE WEIGHT LOSS" [protected] (what is in" " is an actual chat I had so these are the facts.) Comprehensive has 2 departments) "We have one sister company which have 2 departments. "We are located in Des Moines, Iowa (US)" (again that is a direct quote from them. Department 1 phone number is [protected] and department 2 phne number is [protected]. I call them department 1 and 2 because they answer the phone customer service and guess what? Department 1 and Department 2 and a third number I have all have the same recording by the same person! So in closing it appears that both companies (because I was crazy enough to buy pills from Acaiburn and tea from WuYi so I was DOUBLE WHAMMIED! Both Acaiburn and Wuyi have the same sister company Comprehensive Weight Loss which has 2 departmens Insider Secrets and EBooks. I am not sure if the sister company name is Comprehensive or EBooks. But the fact is that 1 is the sister with 2 departments. So I was SCAMMED by both Acaiburn and WuYi who sent their sister company my information so money was being withdrawn from my account for Acaiburn's 'sister' membership (plus the 2 deparments) and WuYi 'sister membership (plus the 2 departments -- remember they are all the same company) for a total of 6 'withdrawals' per month. And for the record I returned it as soon as I received it, cancelled it and never received any refund. I went to my bank, and I will be contacting the Federal Trade Commision, the BBB, the Attorney General's Office of Iowa and the media. These people have to be stopped!

It is funny how many people really DO NOT READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS..If they would read it on the page where it says at the bottom Terms and Conditions it tells you everything..If you go to Acai Burn http://www.acaiburn.com/terms-and-conditions.php..Funny how people want to blame someone else for their laziness on their part not being a responsible buyer..But then they want to bash the company..

It tells you right here that it is not FREE and that you will be charged if not canceled in 14 days $59.95 which is what the bottle cost! You only pay for the shipping to recieve the product..It also tells you here that yes you are signing up to be on the auto shipment program for Acaiburn

Trial Offer and Sixty (60) Day Guarantee: Where AcaiBurnTM offers its "Trial" Promotion, and where you have chosen to register for such Promotion, upon submitting your initial AcaiBurnTM Application, your Active Credit Card will be charged only the non-refundable Shipping and Handling Fee for your initial fourteen (14) day trial membership ("Trial Membership") and you will receive a one (1) month supply of AcaiBurnTM. If you do not cancel your Membership as set forth in Section 6 hereinbelow, and return the one (1) month supply at your expense, which must be received by us within fourteen (14) days of your receipt of the one (1) month supply of AcaiBurnTM ("14 Day Trial Period"), your Active Credit Card will be charged the monthly Membership fee of Fifty-Nine Dollars and Ninety-Five Cents ($59.95) ("Monthly Fee").

Make sure you monitor your bank accounts carefully. Not only will you be charged for Acai Burn (if you do not read the fine print carefully and cancel within the specified time limit) you are also charged for various "Insider Tips" and "Weight Loss Secrets" and charges range from $9.95 to "4.95 to "1.00". All of the charges come with foreign transaction fees because the subscriber companies originate in Canada.

It's so much fun getting charged for products that were not clearly spelled out in the terms & conditions. And I did read the fine print!

these ###s sold my cell phone number! i now have telemarketers calling me 2-3 times a day! i would call the number to tell them to stop calling, but it is not the same number...it is a different number every time i am called! I would be on my phone all day every day if i were to contact these 'telemarketers.' DO NOT TRUST ACAI BURN, or any other acai berry company, for that matter! plus, Acai does the privilege of enrolling you into several different 'membership programs' who also charge you money (and probably sell your info, too). this is the biggest nightmare of my life! i have lost ALL sense of security because of these ###s! THANKS, ACAI, FOR ###ING UP MY LIFE!
