I was reading a news article on Foxnews.com when I noticed an ad for Teeth Whitening for free web ad. Once I clicked on it, it lead me to whiteningnow.com. As I understood the ad, I only had to pay a small shipping fee to get free trial product. I never authorized them to charged me a full $78 for the product if I did not call them back to cancel.

Once I noticed on my bank statement that a $78 was charged to my checking account, immediately I call Whiteningnow.com to ask them to clarify and ask for a refund of the charge ($78) that I did not authorize. They told me that I had 14 days from the day that I call to call back and cancel before the charge was to applied. I was not told that when I order. They told me that on their website it was written under terms and conditions. They refused to refund although I offer to send back their product unopen.

To me, as a normal person, Free Trial is FREE TRIAL. Not many of us do read Terms and Conditions. I think their web ad is misleading. They committed fraud when they debit my account for $78 without my authorization. I think online customers should be aware of this company. I sure learn my lesson.

Free Trials are not really FREE. Always read the Terms & Conditions. No ripoff here.

There is no ripoff here.

Advanced Wellness Research d/b/a Whiteningnow.com is now NETALAB. They also offering many different products with different names. Read all complaints against them with Advanced Wellness Research, Netalab, Whiteningnow, and other teethwitheing products. Be careful. Florida Attorney General has an open case on them.
