I want to warn others to read the fine print.
ordered: Dec 16th, 2009
received order: one week later
called to cancell one week later....
not in time according to them.
the 14 day trial begins when order submitted, not when received.
then, on day 15 from purchase date, got charge for full amount, which was too much.
So, go ahead and order and next day call and cancel order or can wait until receive order and then cancel.
I would like to see these people out of business, So, if everyone would order and cancel when order received and only pay the shipping and handling like explained, then the company (which ever it is) cannot charge the full amount.
I think after a few million people doing this would prevent scams like this.
thanks
bob
the fine print protects the company. they are good at what they do and rip off people like me. sorry.

I am an ex Local Billing Limited employee, the owners of
www.acaiberryexclusive.com, www.acaiberry-lifecleanse.com,
www.absoluteacaiberry.com and another sites like www. Vitality-clean.com with
these fake diet products (colon cleanser, acai berry, resveratrol), and fake cosmetics products (dazzle
white, face factor, etc.) . They
are operating using various companies: Viv3Labs for Europe, FMW Laboratories
for US And, lately, to avoid the problems caused by the scam using Viv3Labs,
they are using Trading Planet Ltd for Europe and Information Tech Systems LTd
for US. Also, they are using PurpleSky LTD at Cyprus for Europe. Lately, they
are using some companies opened to process credit cards for the porn industry
(LB Pride Studios, LB Envision Net Worldwide, etc.- all of them are Local
Billing Companies LB stats for LB).
The business model is to offer a FREE SAMPLE, only charging you the postage
(this is an excuse to get your credit card number) and, then, due to HIDDEN
Terms and Conditions, charge people incredible amounts of money for pills and
nutraceuticals (in some cases more than 80 /bottle), which in any retail place
cost less than 6 US$ per bottle.This business model is, basically, A SCAM.
The owners of those sites are Deepak Argwal (http://www.ccap.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=106:deepak-agarwal&catid=76:hot-topic,
who, apart from this business contactcenter, legal-, is running more than

It is easy to find them through the information that appears on the site registration
of www.acaiberryexclusive.com.

Just like you, I had hard time getting refund from these people. My bank wouldn't do it automatically, they gave me phone numbers to deal with the "merchant" directly. I had to call three different places.
The fact is this: Those pills will NOT help you loose weight! I took them for four months and actually I gained some weight! I did a Google search, and in various sites people that used those pills, mentioned that there was no loss of weight at all. I haven't heard anyone say that lost weight. Those pills are a TOTAL scam. Don't even get their "free" samples.
