YOU CHOSE NOT TO READ THE CONTRACT that is your fault - not the weight loss center. It does not matter that they said sign here etc - YOU MADE THE DECISION NOT READ THE CONTRACT - DEAL WITH IT YOU CHOSE NOT TO FOLLOW THE DIET - that is your fault -not the weight loss center. You claim you went out and spent $200 on food you did not have in the house That was YOUR CHOICE no one forced you to do so. YOU made several BAD choices here that resulted in your failed weight loss attempt. YOU HAVE TO LIVE WITH YOUR CHOICES! TO BOTH THE OP AND THE FIRST REBUTTAL - DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH - GEMB WILL NEVER DO ANYTHING FOR YOU. CARE CREDIT IS A SCAM ANYWAY AND GEMB USES IT TO THE MAX.

After reading this complaint, I feel I must respond. I worked for Results Weight Loss, and what this consumer experienced is her own fault. I attended a month long, comprehensive training class before I was allowed to set foot in a center, and I can assure you, no one ever told her that her membership included optional supplements and snacks. The membership presentation is very clear, and individuals are given a thorough explanation of their program before they ever leave the building. She stated herself that she never read the contract that she signed. Who's fault is that? And who files a complaint with corporate, and then waits 2 months to follow up? Anyone has 3 days to cancel on any retail contract, that is the law. She didn't do it. And she says she followed the plan for a week and gained weight? That is just not possible. The Results Weight Loss program was developed by a Medical Dr. and every potential clients medical history is reviewed by a registered dietitian, before they are allowed to even be considered for the program. It is a safe and common sense approach to weight loss, not some fad diet or gimmick. I followed the program myself, without the supplements, and lost 5 pounds the first week. And the Centers are full of before and after photos, and testimonials from satisfied clients who lost weight, and kept it off. Because of the dire economy this entire country is experiencing, I was laid off from this company, and am out of work, but still feel strongly enough about the Results Weight Loss Program to come to their defense. I was treated fairly, and was lucky enough to meet many happy clients, who have learned how to safely lose weight, and keep the weight off. Thank You

Back in June 2007 I sent a dispute to GE Money / Care Credit. I had not heard back and I started to wonder and thought they were just researching my case. In late August I receive a letter (dated August 24, 2007) stating that they were researcing (just as I thought). Two weeks later, I receive a letter telling me that my dispute was submitted on August the 8th and that it was over the 60 day time frame for submitting disputes. How convinent that according to them, it is 4 days over the 60 day timeframe. Such crap. They will not process my dispute and told me that they received my dispute on August 24th. I argued with them but it did no good. The girl told me that I could contact corporate but that was it. These people are getting away with charging me for 1 year of BS services and product, which some of the product I never received and only attended their services twice, including the day I joined. I don't have a problem paying for what I received but I do have a problem paying for services and product NOT received. Is there anybody that can help guide me in order to get my money back. Results Weight Loss Center in SW Florida are FRAUDS and they need to be shut down and forced to reimbuse their clients. GE Money Bank / Care Credit needs to be forced to refund their customers as well. I thought they would assist me but they are just as bad as Results Weight Loss.
