Slimgenics Formerly Slim4life Slimgenics is a scam money grabbing company Littleton Colorado
I had success with the former company called Slim4Life. I ate real food that I prepared myself from whole foods. Supplements were a required purchase at that time. In December, 2016 (years later) I went back to Slimgenics as it is still in the same office and I was told it is the same program as Slim4Life only now you are required to purchase their snacks instead of supplements.
First meeting after sign-up fee was sales pitch forcing me to purchase their snacks. When I got home I read the ingredients and they are carcinogenic bombs including things like aspartame, chemicals, and other artificial additives. I tried to exchange the worst ones for others with the least amount of chemicals so I could remain compliant with their program and progress. Instead of a friendly discussion with the manager, she brought in the 2 employees and all 3 ganged up on me.
I was promised a call from the district manager, but I have not heard from anyone since that day. I will not go back to such a hostile environment where I was paying for their support and help and left feeling attacked instead after politely asking for a reasonable compromise to their policies. I tried eating their snacks for a week and became nauseous and ill. I found hair in my mouth from 2 out of 10 pouches. I stopped eating their snacks immediately and felt immediately better.
I communicated to them at sign-up about my interest in only eating whole foods. They waited until my second visit after I had signed up to blindside me with the snacks saying the program's total cost would be $2600 by the end of the program. Yikes! Slim4Life was only a few hundred and my sign-up was only a few hundred. At no time did they mention I would be spending thousands to finish the program after 12 weeks. But, once you sign their contract, you are stuck. Their policies and terms are pages and pages long. No way would anyone have tiime to read it in their office. But, the bottom line is no refunds, exchanges or cancellations allowed.
I want to warn people and ask them to boycott Slimbenics and their products. Ridiculous companies like this should be run out of business as the people aren't going to take it any more! There are a lot better weight loss programs out there where the staff are legitimate dieticians and the clinic provides medical doctors on staff. Slimgenics pays a low wage with commission and trais staff to be salespeople pushing products and how to use fear and scare tactics.
On my 3rd visit it was another money grab to sell me vitamins and supplements. I said I have my own that I prefer to use and they switched to scare tactics reiterating their magical numbers on toxins in my body. No blood was drawn. I stepped on a scale basically and it produced this data. Scam! I'm only 20 pounds overweight and very active and eat very healthy. They tried to insinuate I was on the brink of death and that they were scared for me in an attempt to illicit fear and get me to buy more product. Shame on your Slimgenics!
