My credit card was stolen and the advance acci was charged to my account, in the amount of 76.00. This company is a rip-off as this product was never ordered or received by me. And they make it impossible to contact them to get your money back. After contacting the Better Business Bureau about their what happen they insist they will continue to charge me 76.00 a month regardless. I told a friend about this who stated this is the worst product that anyone would every use. It causes sever gastro bleeding and bloating, nausa, headaches, and it lower’s your immune system and you feel as though you have the flu, If you miss one pill you get so hungry it defeats your weight loss issue. Ladies and Gents there is NO Diet in bottle NONE, NADA, Zich…I was 300 lbs and I continue to eat what I want, I just got MOTIVATED and walked every day and drink more water and less sugar I am now a health 150, 5″7 female. that took 7 mos. NO SUGAR is the trick. Eating what I want in smaller portions without counting calories. NO SUGAR, NO PILLS ,EXERCISE ADVANCE ACCI IS A RIPOFF..THIEF AND FAT LIAR…

Don’t buy Acai Advanced this product doesn’t work. They don’t pick up the phone for hours if you want to cancel. You get charged by other company’s that you don’t get anything from. Take time to research. Dozens of complaints.

This statement is true. I had blood in my stool, went to my doctor, took the pills I was taking with me and he told me to immediately stop. I had been taking the pills for ony 3 days when this happen. I’ve been trying to contact the number provided on the invoice to cancel since that time. These people are a rip off and they need to be closed down. I think a class action lawsuit should be filed immediatley.

B E W A R E !!!!!! THIS PRODUCT IS A RIP OFF. YOU MIGHT AS WELL EAT DIRT FOR ALL THE BENEFITS YOU WILL GET AND YOU WILL PROBABLY GET MORE NUTRIENTS FROM DIRT. DON’T BUY IT. DON’T GET INVOLVED WITH THIS COMPANY BECAUSE THEY WON’T CANCEL YOUR ORDER AND WILL CONTINUE TO CHARGE YOUR CARD DISPITE CALLING TO STOP SHIPMENT.

As my doctor said that because l take coumadin l should NOT take acai….so a few days ago l cancelled any connection with you via phone Conf. #599524 and a Membership l did NOT ask for conf. #599527 This week my bank statement came and $64.95 had been taken out. l want it RETURNED immediately.
Thank you

If you would read the terms and conditions before hitting the submit button, you would know what to expect. Everything is explained in the terms and conditions!!

This i a total ripoff.
I requested the free trial with only a $5.95 shipping charge.
I received the order on June 22,2009 2 days later I had a charge for $24.95 on my charge card that they said was for a membership I did not agree to.When I called to complain they said they would cancel and refund the money.They have about 3 different phone numbers.I was told i would have no other charges on my account.
and everything was cancelled. I checked my credit card account a couple of days later and i had another charge of $64.95 on my account.I called and called and got nothing but a busy signal.My credit card company called and the same thing ,we could not reach them.Today July 1 i finally reached customer service and talked to the same person that said everthing was cancelled and there would be no other charges to my account.They had charged my account the very day i had cancelled.She informed me it was because i did not return the bottle that i thought was free within 20 days. I had just recieved it 2 days before cancelling and was not told to return the bottle.I have searched and serched the paperwork i received with shipment.No where does it state i will be charged the $64.95.it does state the membership needs to cancelled within 20 days.But they that starts the day you order not the day you receive the merchandise.They refuse to credit my account with the Membership of $24.95 and the $64.95.I even talked to a supervisorBill (he rsaid he was not authorized to give his last name) He also refused to give any credit and stated there was no one that could.
Beware they obviously use your credit card information to charge bogus and unauthorized cahrges.I am going to contact the BBB and my local TV consumer Hot line Division and I suggest anyone that hashad this problem do the same.Do not order from Acai Advanced.

This product is such a scam. I used it per the directions, drank 6 yo 10 – 9 oz bottles of water per day, did 1 hour of cardio 6 days a week and 30 minutes of wieght training 3 times a week and did not lose a single pound. I gained 5. When I called to cancel, I got the run around about extending the trial, so I did extend it, twice. As intended, I forgot the newest date by which I was to call, yet again, to cancel my order, Low and behold, the VERY next day there is a charge on my bank for $79.95 and now that they have scammed 80 bucks out of me, they are willing to cancel my order, no questions asked

I am usually not a person to try a “free product” for the price of shipping. I did this time because some local people had tried it. I have about 10 pounds to lose and thought this would help with the exercising I do.

Boy what a mistake!!! I got the product- tried it for a week and didn’t see a difference so when calling to cancel- line was busy forever- when I did get through- the rep claimed they couldn’t hear me and hung up – 3 different times. I called early this morning after seeing that the $89.90 came out of my account. They claim they have cancelled the “accounts” but will not give a refund. never again!

I ordered Advanced Acai. When I received the bottle it listed Chronium as the first ingredient. Somewhere at the bottom it mentioned acai. But the big issue is it uses caffene for energy boost! I took no more than two pills to start and then one a day, not three, the side effects were couldn’t sleep until after midnight and was so thursty I drank 6 to 8 quarts of water a day. After a week of that I had gained 5 more pounds of water weight and was so swelled I couldn’t even get my wrist watch on! It took 4 days off of Advanced Acai to relieve the excess water retension. I have not even begun to fight to cancell the agreement.

I just received two bills on my credit card statement charging me $24.95 anf $64.95 for products not received and DO NOT want. I will not pay them! This is a SCAM personified again and again.

This is a real rip-off!!!!!! The Acai bills make me sick after taking it for two days. I called with in the 15 day trial period every day for five days, they put me on hold then cut the line off. When I finally got through they won’t reverse the $89.90 they charged to my credit card.

This is fraud!!!!!!!!!

I was so upset to learn that this product was a disgusting scam. I take a very natural approach to health, and after working out for months with no result, I thought for the first time in my life, I will give diet pills a try, despite my instincts and knowledge.

What everyone has said above is true. It is such a shame. Not only is the product a joke, but it absolutely blows me away that people can conduct this sort of business and not be sued. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

THis is a SCAM! You pay $5.95 for shipping and handle to recieve the free trial then in 2 weeks they charge you $65.95 then they charge you $75 more in less then a month with a product you have not recieved yet. Then you call and tell them to cancel……too bad your other is on the way and we can’t take it back. THe product to me did nothing. I said I will just refuse the item she said you can refuse it but you still pay for it. SCAM! SCAM! SCAM!!!!!! no refunds so I canceled and remember when you order the free trial you auotmatically sign up for a year subscription.

I’ve just checked my bank statement, I am charged $89.95 for pills that I did not received. Those pills where suposed to be a free trial, I paid $3.95 that was charged for shipment., but now $89.95.????? I am cancelling my credit card, and notifying my bank

did any one ever find a phone number to contact the company directly and not customer support? i tried the free trial period thinking i would not be charged if i didnt like the product. i have talked to the customer service people about a refund and i am not within the 15 day time frame to cancel. i missed that part of the argreement. the account has been cancelled thank goodness but i would like a refund.

This is a fraud and I hope BBB will investigate this company and authorities shut it down. I ordered a free sample online and paid 5.95 for shipping. After placing this order, I realized that I will not be able to test it and return within 20 days if I am not satisfied wit it because I was leaving for vacation in Europe. Thus, I called immediately to the Customer Service to cancel my order. A very nice young man suggested that instead of canceling my order, he will expand the trial period and there will be no action taken until further notice from me. Alas, they charged my credit card $24.95. When I called to ask what this charge was for, a very rude customer service representative (Erica) said that this is non-refundable charge for access to their website. I explained the situation and asked her to read me a note in my account made by another agent, she refused. I asked to speak with her supervisor, the answer was: “I am here alone”, I asked for the name of her supervisor and for the name of the head of the company, she refused to provide these names. I requested cancellation of everything. Reluctantly she supplied me with cancellation numbers for two products (I have no idea what was the second product) and now I have to send the “test” bottle back (on my expense) to avoid further charges. My advice is to stay away from this company if you do not want to be charged endlessly for the products and services you do not receive.

Im really disappointed with this produced,i tryed to call and return it back to get my money back,but theres no answer…Reading the other commets of people,im starting to think it is a scam..What to do?

I was ripped off too. This is a scam.You get the free trial and they keep sending it at 79.00 It does not work. You can’t get a hold of these people. I first saw this on a website where Rachel Rey was for this stuff. They also had a womans testimonial That said she was Jenny Daniels from the town I’m from. I saw her on another acai berry website and her name was Michelle P. The same picture and every thing. What A JOKE!!!!!Do not get This1111111111111111111111

I received a 14-day free trial of this product, unfortunatly I forgot to cancel my subscription within 14 days. So I called about 5 days. The lady on the other end could care less if I did not even open the bottle. She was still going to charge me the $87.55. I would not except her reply. So she said I would be refunded $40.00 of
this amount. The very next day I was billed to my account $87.55. May I ask what
would anyone else that has been ripped off by this scam of a company suggest
that I do next? I would appreciate the feedback. Thanks Anna

I too had a bad experience with this company and I can not believe that Oprah and Rachel Ray stand behind a product that doesn’t work and an unethical company who’s only goal is to sell pills regardless of whether the customer is satisfied with the product or the experience with that company.
My account was charged BEFORE one week of receipt of product. I was not given the two full weeks to try the product. Who in there right mind is going to know after one week if the product is going to work. It did not work for me. I had an additional charge a few days later for a program I did not sign up for. I did get both cancelled and was provided confirmation numbers for both but I’m waiting to see if they continue to charge my account. Even if they are being paid a whole lot of money, to endorse this product, Oprah and Rachel need to do some research before THEY associate their names to an unsavory company and product. After this experience I’m seeing them a bit differently. People look up to them and trust their opinions. For me…..NOT ANYMORE MORE!

I too have been scammed. I’ve been charged $64.95 for the Vit-Acai Advanced that I never received and $24.95 for the Vit-Live Lean AA that I never received. I understand the $5.95 for the S & H for the Free Sample, but this is ridiculous

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!! This product does NOT work. I ordered the product, with the free-trial, and was totally unsatisfied with the results.
1)The Colon Cleanse, which is recommended, does not work. It does not break down the fecal matter in your colon as a cleanser is supposed to. I did everything the “directions” said to do, including eating only fruit for breakfast. For two days I did not have a bm. It wasn’t until the third day, with lots of water and Apple Cider Vinegar that I finally used the rest room. No weight loss occured at all.
2) When I called to cancel, my “free-trial” was extended another 2 weeks. One day after the two weeks was up, my checking account was hit with an $80 charge. When I called to inquire, they told me that they would cancel my order and refund me 40% of the cost. That never happened.
3) THE MAIN INGREDIENT IS CHROMATE, NOT ACAI. And there isn’t an appetite suppressant in Chromate.
4) The actual Acai pills give you INSOMNIA and does NOTHING for appetite.

I purchased ANOTHER colon cleanse, and THE SAME DAY had results. This company should be reported and the product be removed from the market ENTIRELY!

Hi Gloria, I could’nt agree with you more reguarding your experiance with advanced acai. Their product sucks. They will rip you off. Their customer service will not help you recoup your losses. I personally experianced this for myself and will never buy there products again. I strongly recommend that any one looking into purchasing Advanced Acai, DON’T DO IT.

TOTAL SCAM, DON’T PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY OR WITH THIS PRODUCT NAME ON IT.

This company is a dishonest firm. Do not get swindled by their lies.

I was taken in by their “free” offer and I am now fighting the charges.

Report this company to your State Attorney General’s Office and the Better Business Bureau in your area.

I too have just been scammed. I ordered this product and I took it as directed. I have not lost any weight. They only thing I have lost is my money. According the the lady I spoke to your “free” trial period starts the day that you order it. Which I didn’t receive it for 6 days after I ordered it. My 14th day would have been tomorrow, when I called they said I was a day late. When I argued she told me to read the terms and conditions, I did while she was on the phone and nothing she said was in them, but she wanted to argue and say that it was. She finally agreed to cancel the order and to only refund me $40 of the $79.95 I was charge and to not ship me any future orders. She also said I DO NOT have to send back the bottle I have. I guess I have to wait and see if they keep making charges on my card. If so I will retain a lawyer.

I ordered this product with it’s supposed free trial also! I wish I had read this page first!! After 8 days of taking the product, I called to cancel. All I was told was that if I didn’t return the bottle within 30 days I would be charged for it. Low and Behold, today I have a charge for $79.95 on my credit card from some company I never heard of “DietSlmDown” I plan to fight this with my credit card company. I have Visa which is supposed to be very good about fighting fraudulent charges. Wish me luck!!

I took the product and lost weight! I am angry because I have not been able to get another bottle.

It works for me. I am not hungry but I do notice that I get headaches now that I ran out of the product.

I am anxious to get my next bottle. At first, I was annoyed but keep taking the whole bottle.

This is a rip-off! I was doubled charged 79.95. They claim they have nothing to do with diets lmdown, but they do. They are going to be forcing people to get new credit cards.

BEWARE! The product isn\’t bad at all, but the marketing leaves much to be desired. I ordered the product on 9/13 and it was shipped 9/14. I received it 9/25.
I\’ve used it and it does seem to make a difference in energy level. But I knew I wouldn\’t be able to manage the $70 at this time. So I called and spoke to “Charlene” on 10/2/09. Charlene offered to extend the trial until 10/12/09 at which time I could call and cancel or order more. I called back today and was told that “Charlene” had made no entry into my file and that I had been billed today for $79.95. I told them that I had understood that the offer was to be extended. He said it had not been extended, but that he could send RMA information and that I would be charged a $20 restocking fee. I told him he was out of his mind. I hung up and called my bank to have the transaction cancelled.

This product is a scam and so is their membership. You will not loose weight and they will hook you for extra product and refuse to return your money. I took the acai advanced as advised and did not loose one lb after 2 weeks. The next thing I know there is another bottle in the mail. I called to cancel the pills and the website which i did not join. When I explained to the representative that i had not lost a lb and wanted to return the product and get a credit they said they could not do that. I have not even opened the second bottle. I just want my credit card debited.

Make sure to read fine print. It says free trial with an astericks… its a free trial period not a free trial product. You can return as long as you call by end of trial. Then have 30 days to return. Responsible for S&H. Its a try before you buy type deal. If you don’t call then you get enrolled. Call within trial, then you wont have any hassles.

This is the same experience as mine..after taking acai advanced I actually increased in weight and when cancelled the order they again charged me for the same after cancelling….they are perfect cheaters!!!A solid SCAM!!!

I mistakenly ordered this product and then tried to cancel on the 14th day but was declined a refund, apparenty they can’t count, I ordered on the 17th of Nov. recieved the product on the 24th of Nov. and tried to cancel on the 14th thats 14 days by my math. I would not recommend ordering any of these products online. Their all scams, go to your local Vitamin Shop.

Thank you so much, I almost got tricked on buying this crap because they seem so convincing! Something should be done because they are ripping people off and making millions out of it!

I ordered this product and found this site after I did so. I didn’t realize before I read a post that they charge you after the trial period and that also it pretty much doesn’t work. I tried to call and I didn’t get an answer however I called back twenty minutes later and someone answered after 4 minutes. She was very nice and cancelled the order for me and also refunded me the 3.95 in shipping since they didn’t ship it out yet.

I tryed the acaipuro and acaicolo products when they offered the 1 month free supply for only the price of shipping and handling. I actually took the entire month supply and saw no results and felt no boost in my energy level. This company is a complete rip off and should pay for giving people false hope. A COMPLETE SCAM.

I signed up for a free trial then i find out not so free can not find how to cancel b4 my 10 day grace period b4 they start charging me the million dollars & automatic monthly drops to me with money taken out of my accout none of this did I agree to. There is no number to call on box bottlle anywherere to be found go figure then I find your website to find this stuff is a bunch of junk…go figure I will never I mean never fall for your $1 free sample scam I mean scam again oh & I was to get some stupid free purse never saw that lol

not only is this a rip off I have been vomiting large amounts I mean buckets full & started severe stomach cramps I got on my computer trying to return this rip off junk & deju-vu just realized why I have the so called 24 hr virus. ADVANCEDACAI. Iwas to get a free sample for a dollar & found out I will be charged & will be recieving monthly shippments better not…..this is really making me sick I think this should be taken off the market you can’t even find a number email etc to be found to call to cancel ask ??????? or complain much less have a health problem I took another pill several hours ago after vomiting about 15 times & I mean buckets full I am about 5’5″ tall weight about 130 I put on about 3 pounds over holiday thought easy way to get off this sucks I really don’t even need to take the junk…..I’d like to tell them where to put it

This is a hoax. I think I will call the Better Business Bureau. I called and cancelled my trial within a week. They said they would notify me a RMA number by e-mail to send it back. I have not received it yet.If they go ahead and charge me I will call the BBB/.

Does anyone have the phone number to this scam? I am going to cancel my bank account so I do not get any further charges taken out. The number I got was a disconnected number.

The reason why i got this pills was to help my mom she’s
overweigth, but she lives in mexico. i did not read all the
information with small letters, now they charged my credit
card with $79.95 and my mom haven’t even try them.i really
belive all the good comments abouth this product thinking
that i was going to paid only $1.97 for shipping.
PLEASE CANCEL RIGTH AWAY!!!! if u know that u r not going to
use the product they told me… “we r going to continue
sending the pills and charging EVERY MONTH “!!!!
good thing i cancel it.

Thank you all for the reviews…. I was about to get the free trial and I think I have changed my mind. Thank god I found this page.

THANKS TO EVERYONE I ALMOST BOUGHT THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE A LADY FROM A NEWS CHANNEL TRIED THIS PRODUCT AND I GOT REALLY EXCITED TO BUY THIS PRODUCT SHE SAID SHE TRYIED THE FREE TRIAL AND IT WAS EASY SHE NEVER MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT THE AFTER CHARGES BUT NOW THAT A HAVE READ ALL OF WHAT YOU GUYS HAVE SAID AM DEFINETLY NOT BUYING THIS PRODUCT. THANKSSSSSSSS!

ill read the whole terms and condition. ill find a loop, to get you scammers.

I don’t understand why this product is so expensive. They say its because its shipped from Brazil. Don’t we process and get coffee and coffee beans from Brazil too? They are not this expensive. If you are so desperate you want to try this product, take out a prepaid credit card.

OMG!!!!!! I did alot of research before ordering this product did not find anything bad. Now that i have received the product i come across this WTF!!!! who do these people think they are.I am going to start a petition to get the company shut down I have a friend who has alot of pull. This will come to an end they have scammed the wrong person. I have not taken the pills yet Thank Goodness. With a little help from my friend I think these scammers days have come to an end.I have also cancelled my card.

I tried advanced acai. The promises are false I didnt lose any weight what so ever. I had my hopes set so high and now I’m a little bit crushed. I’m about 70lbs. over weight. I eat healthy (I only snack on fruits and veggies) and I exercise and I still can’t lose weight. I’m getting desperate, thats why I wasted my time with the acai.

I’m so glad that I found this website. I called the customer service number that was on my packing slip and got a hold of someone at Advanced Acai and canceled immeditily! I told them that this was a wrong decision on my part and that I heard bad things about this company. I don’t want anything to do with them. I cancelled well before my 14-day free trial was up so hopefully I won’t see any other charges on my account. I’m actually thinking about cancelling my debit card and getting a new one just to be on the safe side. Even though I was told that as long as I return the bottle I won’t get charged a restocking fee or any other charges. I should have know that this was too good to be true! Back to the gym for me!

Here’s a tip that will help all of you in the future. Even though I can’t stand Bank of America because of the whole too big to fail bail out situation, they have something called ShopSafe which allows you to make up a credit card number online that is linked to your credit card, but you can set a limit (in this case, $5.95) and a date for it to cancel in 2 months. That way, when they try to charge you for a “subscription” the card is declined and they end up being the one who gets screwed! This is how i do ALL my online transactions and it has worked great. Then they start calling you for a new card number, and they’re the ones getting frustrated when they can’t reach ya!

i very glad i found this page! i looked for bad things befor i order didnt see nothing now i order i see all this bad stuff! but thanks to all of u good people i havent tryed it yet&not going to!they wont be charging my card thanks to all of yall cancled already! thanks guys! everyone needs to call a lawyer!lets not let them get away with this start calling 2day! we can win this cases!!!!!!!!!

call a LAWyer 2day lets get them back!shut them DOWN!everyone needs 2 call!&we need our money back plus MORE!!OH YEAH!!!1
