Complaint Review: Think And Lose

Think and Lose, Think & Lose, Think & Lose Program, TRY IT FREE FOR 30 DAYS!!! As seen on TV! 1-800-495-1360.

You really think it's a FREE trial for 30 days, THINK AGAIN! The website takes you through this extremely convoluted process. You begin by clicking the free 30 day trial offer for *ONLY* $39.95 plus $12.95 shipping and handling. Be very, VERY careful, because not only could this small fee of ***ONLY*** $39.95 plus $12.95 (= $52.90) will end up costing you WELL over several HUNDRED dollars!

After you click the first "30 day trial offer" they entice you with about TEN different offers (if not more...sorry, can't remember the exact number, but I'm not far off of that number, it could even be more). The next one is something you absolutely cannot pass up!!! If you chose the Platinum Package not ONLY will you receive the ENTIRE PROGRAM on an MP3 player which has been preloaded for your convenience, you'll ALSO receive all of the cd's and dvd's!!! And...if you just can't wait, you can always select RUSH ORDER!

Now, what fail to tell you, and obviously must be in very FINE PRINT on the website order form, is that if you DETOUR from the original 30 day trial offer for ONLY $39.95 plus $12.95 shipping and handling order, you will be charged IMMEDIATELY on your credit/debit card.

I just called my bank, disputed the order and had the charges removed immediately. If you call THINK & LOSE...it will take APPROXIMATELY 60 days to have credit issued to you AFTER YOU RETURN THE PRODUCT and YOU pay shipping and handling charges.

I haven't even received the product yet, but, as I told my bank, I will refuse the product when it is shipped to me. Think & Lose said NOT TO DO THAT, because it could DELAY THE CREDIT EVEN FURTHER on my account. She said you need to write an RMA # with a ***MARKER*** (which they will give you - BUT! MAKE SURE THEY GIVE YOU THE CORRECT NUMBER!!! I had to repeat MINE 3 times...after THREE TIMES she said, "OH!!! Yeah...you need to put a "Q" on it!" I asked specifically, "on the beginning or the END of that number?" At the end.

I will write this RMA number with a MARKER on TWO SIDES OF THE BOX and tell the postman that I am refusing the product.

This company, along with every other television SCAM ARTIST is taking our hard earned money and then holding it in an interest bearing account and making hundreds, and hundreds of thousands of dollars off the consumer. Hmmm...do you think, even MILLIONS? God forbid!!! Even if they have my measily little $112.95 for 3 business days, if they had 250,000+ customers order this product, do the same thing I did and select the "platinum program", or if they selected to have it RUSHED, via overnight express, there is NO 30 DAY TRIAL ORDER. So that would be the normal $52.90 plus the additional RUSH fee that they'll have for a few business days. Multiply that money by the number of people who have ordered over the last few days and it's literally millions of dollars they've drawn interest off of and can KEEP.

The consumer? If they used their credit card, as I did, they'll be fine. If they used a debit card, they're f$*#ed!!! NSF fees out the wazoo, not to mention the fees they'll incure when forced to pick up those NSF checks!

What about the poor consumer who doesn't fight it, who says, "Oh...well, I shouldn't have done that, but oh well. I really needed this product." And the vicious cycle continues!

SHAME ON Don Mannarino and the website writer who made such a convoluted mess!!! May you ALL have KARMA return to bite you right in the proverbial zit on your "a*s"inine doltish selves that you all deserve! TEN FOLD!!! (or MORE!). (My God is bigger than YOURS)!!!
