To whom it may concern,

Be aware. The $9.95 for the Pimsleur Approach is a total scam.
When I purchased the CD, I did not understand that I would have to pay 4 x $64 per CD, 4 times or 1 time for each CD. I thought I could just purchase the first set for $9.95 and I had no idea they would keep charging me. I was not at my home for health reasons for a few months. When I got back, my daughter that help me with my finance (I'm an older lady) told me I had over $600 of charges on my credit card from an Internet company, for what seemed to be the Pimsleur Approach. I was completely taken by surprise and I called them to try to return all the material they sent (I did not open it). They said that because it was past 30 days, they would not accept any return. I tried to return all of it, and I was willing to pay the $9.95 even if I returned all the CD, and they refused. Leaving on a fixed income, this has been very hard for me as I now have credit card debt because of those charges. 

I never authorized any of those charges and I now rely on the credit card company to help me fight and get a refund. I really feel I was taken advantages of and I encourage everybody to absolutely avoid this company.

This is a complete SCAM, do NOT purchase. Be very careful as this company is very dishonnest and their advertising very deceptive.
