Unauthorized charges
They advertise a "Free Sample". What is in the fine print is that this "Free Sample" will cost you $6.00 in shipping and handling (the initial charge) and another $69.95 after 14 days if you do not cancel your subscription. Oh yes, you are automatically subscribed to a renewal and your credit card is billed. The second charge of $69.95 will be refunded (so...

From a e-mail I received I responded to a free sample of TOTAL CLEANSE BROMALITE AND ACAL BERRY NATURE'S BEST via the same e-mail. I am 70 years of age and feel stupid as after I OK'd free samples, I relealized that they added an order for Green Tea (Power Tea) to my bill. I called Bromalite within 10 minutes and requested that the Green tea be cancealed and removed from the invoice. They, Supervisor Cynthia Campbell said she will remove the order and the crediit card charge. Today, 2-11-09, I received via US mail the Green Tea and the crdit card charge of $34.95. So far only a run around from Bromalite. Please advise this senior, Thank You. William E. List

Scam!!!
Bromalite Scam!
I ordered a "Free Sample" and got hit with a 69.95 charge to my credit card... I called the company [protected]) and got my credit card refunded within 5 days. (was on hold for about 15 minutes)
Here is the best way to handle the call to avoid them telling you that there is nothing they can do:
1. tell them the call is being recorded
2. tell them that you plan on contacting the Better Business Bureau and Attorney General's office if not issued a refund along with cancelling the memebship.
3. ask for a confirmation # and aslo an email confirmation.
They will 1st try to tell you that there is nothing that they can do about the initial 69.95 charge since you did not cancel within the 1st 14 days. They will also point out that this was disclosed when you clicked "rush my order" or "submit" for your "Free Sample"... Simply tell them "that is poor business practice - please credit my account for the 69.95 and cancel the membership so I don't have to call the Attorney General - thanks you!"
... Soon you're credit card will get charged again for 29.95 from another compnay called FitFactory.com - they will claim that you agreed when you submitted the Bromalite order - what a nightmare - follow the same as above - here is the # [protected]
Now, the eamails keep coming from all theri "partners"... ### just won't go away!

I ORDERED THE FREE TRIAL AND PAID FOR THE SHIPPING. I CALLED AND CANCELLED. THEY CHARGED ME BANK ACCOUNT $69.95 AND CLAIM THEY DIDNT. I DONT BELIEVE MY BANK ACCOUNT IS LYING TO ME. BUT BROMALTE IS! I WANT MY MONEY BACK!
I agreed to pay the $4.95 for the "free" bromalite trial. Shortly after giving the company my credit card info I started getting emails from other "diet" and "fitness" companies. I later noticed that I had charges on my credit card from these companies in addition to a 69.95 charge from Bromalite - non of which were authorized by me. My credit card company refunded my for the other charges, cancelled my credit card, and investigated the $69.95 charge. I have recently found out that Bromalite was able to convince VISA that the charge was legitimate and I'm out $69.95! THIS IS A HUGE SCAM!
Company charges card full price before 14 day period is up. Aggresive customer service, puts you on hold, does not come back.
This company has links on websites. They make it look like all you need to do is call to cancel. Of course when you call, no one picks up and when you try to look your order up to cancel online, it says "order not found." This is what they are doing...when a person tries to cancel, they naturally enter Bromalite as a key word search and they are directed to a different site from the one they ordered from which of course has all sorts of terms which were not on the first site (the one you ordered from initially). I have written to the Delaware Attorney General (easy to use their email). Till the $69.95 goes from pending to an actual debit, I can't dispute it with my Bank, but as soon as it does, I will. Let's see how good an attorney general Joe Biden's son is.
I ordered one free sample of Bromalite and paid the shipping in late January 2009. Yesterday, March 1, my husband discovered two $69.95 charges on my credit card! I have ordered nothing except the free trial bottle and received nothing except that free sample. I phoned them and they said it was my responsibility to read the fine print on their website. I never even saw any fine print - all I was doing was ordering one free sample to try. The man who I spoke with also told me that "Nothing is ever free." This is a SCAM. Their product also does not work. I have zero results from consuming their product. The man (Jerome) said he'd credit me the second $69.95 charge and cancel my "membership" but not the first one. That first charge was for my FREE product! I did not ask for nor expect any membership or autoshipment. This is outrageous.
My FREE TRIAL bottle turned into a nightmare! I ordered the free
bottle, paid the shipping, and didn't receive it for over 2 weeks.
THEN they charged 87.56 to my credit card for the free bottle!
15 days later, they charged another 87.69 to my credit card for
another bottle! I was also charged for a diet and fitness site I had
no Idea about ($38.29) It came with the bromalite. The latter site will refund most of my money, they said, but Bromalite won't! I was obviously charged shipping on that FREE $87.56 bottle twice, but they wouldn't refund that either! I'm mad as hell about this scam.
Linda In Canada
Bromalite offers online appear in a popup. They advertise a bottle of their supplement for only shipping and handling. Buried in the bottom of their offer is the condition that they will charge your credit card for over $80 for the bottle if you don't call them with 15 days of their shipping the product. That is totally unreasonable. They also continue to send more product (this is also buried in the fine print somewhere) and charge your credit card. And they sign you up for something called Fit-Fac. I was able to get them to credit my charge card for both Bromalite charges and the Fit-Fac charge. This business needs to be shut down or monitored immediately as many, many people are falling for this scam. The same thing is going on with a supplement called Acai Berry Supreme.
BROMALITE, BROMALITE, THIS IS A SCAM AND A RIPOFF, WHY? SHOW ME A CLIICAL TRIAL OF ALL THOSE PRODUCTS COMPARING THEM TO PLACEBO GROUP, WE ALL ACCEPTING THOSE COMPANIES TO MANIPULATE OUR LIFE STYLE WITH BROMALITE, ACAIBERRY AND ETC. LET US STOP THEM, AS I ALWAYS SAY IT EASY COME, EASY GO AND NO PAIN NO GAIN, SO JUNK ALL THOS EPRODUCTS AND START THE GYM AND HEALTHY DIET, THOSE COMPANIES ARE SCAM, AND PLAYFUL, THEY ARE ATTACKING THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE SUFFERING FROM WEIGHT GAIN, THEY ARE TARGETING THOSE PEOPE WHO ARE TRYING TO SOLVE THEIR PROBLEMS WITH GAINING WEIGHT, I'M SURE THEY SET IN THEIR MARKETING MEETINGS AND AGREE IN HOW TO TARGET CUSTOMERS .SHAME ON ALL THE DRUG COMPANIES, SHAME ON THEM . THEY ARE NOT AFTER OUR HEALTH, THEY ARE AFTER OUR MONEY. NO BROMALITE NO ACAI BERRY, DOES NOT WORK GET IT !
Hi Brenda,
This is Linda again.
I already called your customer service, and that is what spurred me
to complain. They told me I had 12 days, period. It took me more
than 2 weeks to receive the product. Meanwhile, I was billed for that
first FREE bottle, then another one before I knew what was going
on.
This is a poor way to do business. My bank told me they have had
numerous complaints about your company. If I call your customer
service, I will be told the same thing, because I was on the phone for
SOME time with them the first time. They wouldn't budge, so I
imagine they've been told what to say. I TOLD the girl I had 30 days,
and she insisted I had 12. At 12 days, I didn't even HAVE it yet.
So, Brenda, I'm sorry to tell you, your customer service will not be
happy to assist me. They DID cancel my account, but no refund.
That's a very expensive lesson I had to learn, and no, I'm not
one bit happy about it.
Sincerely,
Linda

Over Charged
To the people at Bromalite
I had purchased an apparent "free trial" with this company along with 2 other samples to which I have been charged on my Visa numerous times. I will give the dates and amounts of these items..for a free trial and with a purchase of 2 other bottles they recomended by them. In my opinion the amounts I have been charged is an outrage and I demand an explination along with credits on my Visa account.
Dates and amounts charged by Bromalite
Nov9- 3 charges 1)4.86 2)42.97 3)6.77
Nov 30 1 charge of 66.93
Dec 1 1 charge of 76.52
Dec 15 1 charge of 66.22
Total Charges equalling 224.27
I recieved 3 bottles
1 being Bromalite
another being Acaia Slim
and last being Power Tea
Now if one is a free Sample (being charged for shipping and handling) and the other 2 being less than 50 even with the US exchange should not be 224.27...
I want this looked into and a credit as I believe I was way overcharged for these items that only have 50-60 pills if that in them
Also a letter of apology for the lying of the Free sample THIS WAS NOT a free sample
I will cancel my visa and get a new one issued and this company will be charge with lying to the consumers
I wand an answer ASAP

Cannot return Product
After reviewing the internet ( stupid me I should of looked up the product first!) I have found a lot of complaints with charging your charge card. So, I cancelled mine because what I found out is they will keep on charging you for the product and it is hard to get in touch with them. If you don't return the products as soon as you receive it they will charge you in full after 15 days. They gave you a months supply and the free trail is only for a 2 week period.
So, I called and cancelled and also, am mailing back their product.
If you receive an email from Fit Factory, [protected]) call them up right away Because they will be charging your acct. $19.95 a month for support that you signed up for when you purchased Acaia Slim or Bromalite.
I can't get in touch with Bromalite [protected]) I was on hold for at least 1 hour. Does anyone know there Return Address?
It took about 10 minutes for Acaia Slim.

aol or google should not alow BROMALITE
I just received my bottle. I called and cancelled my fitfactory subscription immediately. I didnt' realize you had to return the bottle in order to not be charged?
I've been trying to get in touch with them, but nobody answers.
constant shipping and charging
I ordered the trial version of both the bromalite and acai diet pills and was fully aware of the shipping only charges. However within two weeks, more pills started arriving and my credit card was charged without my knowledge or consent. I tried the 800 numbers for both companies and received a taped message and no one answered. I then contacted my visa credit card with the charges and had to change my credit card number to deflect any further charges. Visa cannot block charges but they can dispute them but it takes 90 days and meanwhile I would continue to be charged. I live in Canada so the exchange rate at this time is too high. Instead I have to get another number and go without until my new card arrives. These companies should be charged for misconduct and Oprah should be advised of these charges..
they send me a bottle of bromalite i didn't order this then they took some money out my account without my knowledge and i just call there number no answer just answer machine i call three number i got the same thing no answer i would like to send this bromalite back i don't wanted i didn't order it i want my money back i'm very upset i know when i purchased something i didn't purchased this diet pill i will like there respond back immeditely asap!
These greedy thugs at bromalite are just taking people;s money for nothing. They should be shut down. We need to find out what other products they have out there.
Let everyone you know not to buy any of this company's product.
The number to cancell is [protected]. Make sure you ask for your refund. Get a cancellation number, and refund number, and keep checking daily.
This Bromolite co. is messing up ordering anything online.
I will never order anything on line again. I can't believe these people are charging 70.00 dollars for nothing. The stuff is no good, you are better off with Metamucill.
I also have ordered the AcaiBerry and Bromalite but I have not received anything yet. I thought it sounded to good to be true, but I ordered it anyway, Im wishing I would"nt have not, but it"s to late I think. I went to the web site to verify my order, but it could"nt be found, so I dont know if thats good or bad. The toll free number I have is [protected] for the AcaiBerry and [protected] for Bromalite, but I have not called neither number but I guess I will now.
for all those were are saying they are getting fraud charges.. they are not fraud.. it is not a scam. when you put your credit card out on the internet you should be smart enough to read the terms and conditions. nothing is free these days.. i did sign up for the TRIAL and understood to try it within the time given and give them a call if i didnt want to continue. i called their customer service and they were able to assist me in cancelling my account. ive only been charged 4.95 for shipping and handling and have had no other charges, and i was able to keep the whole bottle sent.
read before you give out all of your personal information people.
SCAM ALERT. I am pretty savy internet user, and make many purchases via the net. This one takes the case. Not only do they scam you with auto-filling they scammed me with a 'companion partner' fit factor that started charging my card for $29.95 a month. Thank you for this site; hopefully others want fall for their deceptive marketing strategy.
I was alerted by own credit card company - Thank You Jesus!
I was ripped off too by the scam for nearly 220.00 and I'm angry. I too only wanted the trial. I was naive, and easily duped. I have cancelled my credit card. I have called the cancellation numbers 2 / 28/ 09, and yet today, 3/7/09 another freaking bottle arrived that I need to send back, to try to get my credit card refunded. When will this nightmare end. Ticked off in the Midwest!
This is for Christy, I ordered on the 15th, and just saw all of these complaints today. I have just called to cancel all memberships [protected]) is the number I used. I talked to someone and got comfirmation numbers. Don't know if it worked yet, guess I'll see based on the history.
I'm sorry you all had to go through this terrible ordeal. I just ordered today and after reading your comments I want to cancel. I almost ordered free trial of bromalite, but caught myself in time. However, I did order the ACAI Free trial and am in need of their telephone number to cancel immediately! The Bromalite Company provided [protected] for ACAI but this does not appear to be the correct number. Does anyone know the actually number? If you could be so kind.
i canceled this in Jan. and you keep sending it. I want to cancel which you said i have done. DO NOT SEND ANY MORE OF THIS AND I ALSO WANT CREDIT ON MY CARD FOR JAN AND FEB
try to cancel ......but
I ordered a free trial of Bromalite. I did read the small print which said I needed to call this number to cancel any further mailings or billings. I did that and rec'd a cancellation number. I thought I was safe and no further charges would be taken. That wasn't the case they billed my credit card again for another shipment. I called to inform them and gave them my cancellation number . The woman said ...that isn't one of our cancellation numbers, who did you talk to ( don't know) should it matter? I am still waiting for a refund and it's been 2 weeks...do NOT order from these people...
A definate scam. I did the trial offer to and failed to cancel...however after talking to the people, I was informed that the small bottle sent IS the 30 day shipment...so I paid 4.95 first and then 69.99 for the same bottle. $75 bucks for a little bottle of over the counter supplements. Do not trust them...Also the product is lousy. I tried it for three days without the least effect. I am taking Probiotic 15-35 again from Nutraceutical Sciences.
Just ANOTHER SCAM from a company that has no morals or sense of ethics. We all know how marketing works, they do their research on human behavior and find ways to exploit people for their financial gain. Capitolism, or at least thats the term they like to hide behind. This is just like those mail in rebate offers, the companies know that most people are not going to mail in the rebate out of laziness, forgetfulness or other reasons that they have thoroughly researched. The consumer will however buy the product because of the large print saying what the reduced price is. so, they did their research and know that many people won't look at Terms for a variety of reasons and they put all kinds of extra stuff in there just to steal your money. For all of you out there that are going to tell the American people they are to blame they should pay more attention GO to Hell. You probably are the ones that do this kind of stuff for a living and otherwise wouldn't be aware yourselves. SOCIAL RESPONSIBILTY. Oh I'm sorry you probably don't know what that means...Well go look it up!
I ordered bromalite but I did read the fine print so i called fit factory and cancelled immediately, the bromalite came 13 days after i ordered it which gives me only 1 day to try the product - i called - got right through and they said they will extend my free trial. Right after i ordered, i went online (should have done this beforehand!) and read all these bad reviews - so i cancelled my CC a couple days after ordering. I only recieved the 4.95 s&h charge and my cc is cancelled and i've recieved a new one - all before i recieved the bromalite! So, i got it yesterday and now i don't know weather to try it or not, i have not read any reviews of anybody's results after trying so if anybody has anything to say about the actual product - please post. As far as all the bad experiences, it should be a lesson learned - ALWAYS read the fine print or don't order - and a lesson learned for me - i think all this crap is a scam - especially if you can not buy the product - you have to get a free trial - no website that you can go on and just buy a bottle of it - that should have been a red flag - it will be in the future.
I too have been scammed. Ordered the free trial, which I haven't even tried, and my credit card has a
new $69.95 charge. Also a $29.95 charge from fit fat-
what is that? carol luck cluck9200@q. com
I did go back and look at the Bromalite ad and I did see in very fine print about the subscription you are automatically enrolled in after you submit your order...But even so, it would have been a hassle all the same if I had caught that and did try to cancel my "membership" before 14 days, as it was hard to get through to them, and when I did get through to fitfactory, I was told their system was down and to call back later so they could help me "address my concern." It wasn't until I got my bank involved that I was able to get those charges straightened out.
I too responded to an add and ordered a free sample from Bromalite which I authorized 4.95 to be charged to my debit card for shipping and handling. About 3 weeks later I noticed a charge of 29.95 by fitfactory.com. To make a hassling long story short, I finally got that charge taken care of with the help of my bank. The representative from fitfactory told me I had not "cancelled" my subscription and that's why I was charged 29.95, and she assured me I would not incurr anymore charges from fitfactory. I did receive the credit to my account...But About 4 days later, I noticed a charge in the amount of 69.95 from dri*reg.net. I again called my bank, and my bank called that number and the rep from that company issued me a refund and "cancelled" my monthly "subscription" . I was told the same thing by this rep that when I ordered the free sample of acuberrie or whatever, that i had "signed up" for a monthly subscription to which i would incurr a monthly charge, unless i called to cancel before 14 days after my order. Apparently, the Bromalite company has kept my debit card info and has passed it around. So I had my bank close out my current debit card and issue me another card with a new number. Because i know that if I didn't act now, in a few days, i would probably see another charge pop up from another unheard-of source, and would have to go through the same ordeal again. There's no telling how many "subscription" they try to sign you up for... Beware of the Bromalite ad. It seems to be a scam.

The product just arrived about a week ago and I think I've been charged but figured I'll give it a chance and call them later if I want to cancel. I've taken one pill each day (although, they recommend two). Reason being, due to medication I have a very sensitive stomach and I'm always bloated. I haven't had a bowel movement yet? Is it me? I haven't tried to cancel yet and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on the effectiveness of the product?
Didn't Oprah recommend this stuff?
