Unbelievable
Pure Energy Products, Inc.: Sounds like the same stor(ies). Received 'trial pills'. Got the bank stmt. noticed about $150 debited out of the account without authorization. Contacted the company, we were given a reference number to contact the people of this company. Which we did, wrote three letters. The letters were somehow illegally opened. Sealed backed up, one of the letter stated wrong address, needed P.O. Box number. The next letter was opened up, sealed, sent back with the comment of wrong zip code. Same hand writing in black ink, same handwritten style, unbelievable!
My husband got involved and was to told to contact the legal department, he was getting the run around all over Oklahoma City. We sent the pills back, got the reference number to contact these people...sounds like something being worked out of the basement. In the dark in other word. What is in the dark, will be coming into the light soon...
So why not confess it and give these people back their money, let just call it was it is: THIEVES! God bless you, enjoy it!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Fraudulent charge
Also was charged $149.95 fraudulently after receiving the sample for $4.95. I was stupid to give cc #. I contacted my bank, who said if I couldn't prove I did not receive the product(I refused the package) They could not reverse the charges, and to contact the company, 'Pure Energy Products'. Now I can't even find their website.
Now I received a note from a collections agency saying they are after me for an additional $67.50. No explanation as to what I am being charged for, just a bill. So, now I have the pleasure of spending more of my time dealing with this Bull*&^%$%^&*
They give people a very bad taste for ordering on line, and, I suspect from other e mails I have viewed that they have ripped off hundreds. What a scam!
What can be done? How can I get on such a band wagon, screwing people like this?
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I recently checked my bank statement and noticed that I had a $149.95 charge from an unknown company out of Oklahoma. After calling the phone number that was attached to the charge I found out that it was Pure Energy Products... A company that I have never heard of. Now I am stuck trying to get a hold of them & trying to figure out how they got my credit card number. Next step is to call my bank to see if I can get it taken off.
Absolute scam!
I also ordered the FREE trial (the key word being FREE). It is definitely not free. After ordering the product, I tried to contact them to get some more info on autoship, if there was any, and how much the product was. An 800 number on my bank statement had a recording asking that all questions be sent to the email address ([protected]@thintabs.com) on my...
Read full review of Pure Energy Products and 1 commentCharged my bank card without consent
I ordered a sample of thin tabs for the price of shipping about a month ago. I received it but just here recently my card was charged $149.95. I never ordered any thing from them or I never got any thing. That was my bank account. I don't know what to do about it. I tried calling them at the number that showed on my bank statement [protected], but just got a recording to leave my name and number and a brief message and the would get back in the order it was received. I called back a little later on. Still nothing. I don't know if there's any thing I can do. Do you have a suggestion for me?
Fake terms and conditions, cancellation problems
I received a pop up for a product for 4.95, diet pills. I received a 15 day supply and 2 weeks later received 2 bottles of the same product without my asking or consent. When I complained to usave.com they said that I signed up for this, terms and conditions. There were no terms and conditions and I told them I want this cancelled. I am calling my credit card so no charges will be applied but this company should be reported they are scam artists.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Receiving shipments of product which I did not order. Have returned product and asked that purchase be credited to my card. If it is not, I will be forced to cancel the credit card. Hoping for a positive outcome but judging by previous comments from others this may be may not prove to be the case.
Pure Energy products is a pure rip off!
Pure Energy Products, pure rip off. I ordered a sample 4.95 for a weight loss product. I took the pills about 4 days even halfing them the last 2 days with the effect that they could kill me.
20 days later I get a package in the mail,had to sign for it,with more product. Checked my charge card to find 149.95 had been charged on it. There was no type of paperwork in the package to even say were it was charged or why. I called the # on the bottle, the only place you could find it. [protected] and talked to a man named Byron. He was rude and arrogant. Said there were no refunds and if I canceled it would cost me a 50. dollar cancellation fee. I tried opening their terms with no links opening. The ad came up on a pop up ad in my email. This company is a rip off. I have currently called the News 8 on your side, the FBI for internet fraud, States Attorney's General's office of Illinois, the BBB of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.So far I did get the charges reversed on my card, but from what I am reading on other sites they get a collections agency after you immediately. Never heard of a legit collections agency getting after you within a month. So I think that is bogus too. the website is usaveonpills.com, they also sell thin tabs under same name. I hope with everyone going after them they will get off the internet and spot preying on innocent people.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
The company's sales rep sold me a $30, 000.00 energy system that was going to eliminate my electric bill and be completely paid off in approximately 30 months. This included state rebates and federal tax credits. The terms of financing were to be zero down, no payments and no interest for a year. This would allow for the rebates to come in before the interest and payments kicked in. After the install the city inspection was failed three times. In the meantime I received the first installment payment for $600. I called Purenergy and they told me that the terms of financing changed, nice of them to let me know. I then see the state has run out of money and would not be honoring the rebate program. I understand Pur Energy can't control this part yet it was a tough $12000 to lose. My first two electric bills came in with no savings. The third came in with a savings of 1/3 of what I was told I would get. I was then told that I was wrong and the sales rep never said I would zero out my electric bill. As I explained I would never have spent that much on a system that had a 15+ year return on investment. They made false statements to sell the system then lied about it and continue to lie about it. Stay away from this company(PURENERGY), they are frauds and are out to rip you off.
Money has been withdrawn from my personal bank account in the amount of $149.95 from this company that I have never heard of much less ordered or received anything from before. Online website shows that they sell water purifiers and related items. There's a phone # listed with the withdrawer's information that my bank gave me and when I called and asked the sales people what they sell they said "health supplements and sexual stimulants". Either way I've never ordered anything!
I, too, signed up for a trial bottle of this product. Of course, it didn't work and I canceled. Now, 6 months later, the account has been turned over to a collection agency. When I told them I didn't owe this money (it is now $282 even though the original amount claimed was $149), they sent some photocopied piece of paper from Pure Energy Products indicating that I had agreed to this shipment and could not cancel. Well, that was never on the website that I visited when I ordered the trial bottle. What a scam. We ought to get together and file a class action not only against them but against the collection agency that is trying to collect this debt. This is so bogus.
I too was taken in by this FREE 15 day trial for only 4.95. Two weeks later my credit card was debited for $149.95. I call and got the same results as everyone else,until I call and acted like I wanted to place an order. It wasn't until then that I could talk to a human being. He was very sarcastic and said I had agreed to the contract when I clicked on a certain link. I had only agreed to the 4.95 deduction. I told him I was stopping payment, and not to debit anymore. He told me I was violating the contract and I would face penilities, and would be turned into the credit bureau. I will close my account before I let them take and other dime. Also there were no directions or return address in the packaging.
Beware!

DOROTHY 8ROWN CLERK OF CIRCUIT COURT
MULTIUT CORP, an Illinois corporation, } Judge Stephen A, Schiller
Defendant ) Courtroom 2402
RESPONSE TO §2-619.1 MOTION TO DISMISS J/
Plaintiff JACK GORE (“Gore”). by his attorneys LARRY D DRURY LTD., hereby responds to the Motion to Dismiss 2nd Amended Complaint, pursuant to 735 ILCS 5/2-615 and 619, brought as a combined 2-619.1 motion by defendant MULTIUT CORP. (“Multiut”).
Introduction
Multiut is trying to time-bar this case by transforming express a written agency-service contract drafted by Multiut into a contract for sale of goods, and by disputing Gore's allegations as to concealment and discovery of the wrong – but without submitting any Rule 191 affidavit or documentation. This is a class action arising out of a written contract drafted by Multiut, attached here and to the 2nd Amended Complaint as Exhibit A and B collectively referred to herein as the "contract" or "agreement “ unless otherwise indicated by context): (1)
(A) A service contract to act as Gore's "purchasing representatives" in obtaining natural gas from “off system" suppliers. This contract, entered into on or about December 1990, was titled “Agreement," Exh. A 1, 3-6, 10. And,
{B} A series of supplemental agency contracts to act as Gore’s agent, in so doing with respect to various Properties. These were entered into contemporaneously with the service contract and thereafter, and titled "Natural Gas Purchasing and Agency Agreement.” Exh.-B. (2)
(1) Similarly Multiut refers to them collectively as “the agreement” in its brief (Mem. p. 2, fn. 1). Although the documents are on separately filed pages, they are mutually inclusive and one could not be entered into without the other; e.g. the service contract refers to and incorporates the agency contracts, wherein Multiut refers to itself as Gore's 'exclusive natural gas purchasing agent'. See Exh. A, third introductory paragraph and 16-17; Exh. B 1,
(2) Exh. 8 one of the series, is dated 1998, Exh. C is Gore’s §2-806 affidavit as to the others. Gore has stated he does not have a copy of each, they are inaccessible to him i.e. no longer in his possession, whether missplaced or otherwise, and cannot be located or returned. 2nd Amd.. Compl. {4; Exh, C, in the 1st Amd. Complaint, Count 4 for breach of oral contract was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice after Gore's deposition of May 8,- 2002, when the service contract and the 1998 agency contract were produced by Multiut and adequately established, Exhs, A-B are the same Exhs. 1-2 attached to the Gore transcript, excerpts of which are attached herein as Exh. D, Similarly the missing agency agreements are likely in Multiut’s possession and will be produced in discovery.
The contract was drafted by Multiut, it unequivocally defines Multiut's role in the transactions, and shows that this case is not governed by the UCC. What is at issue here is not the "good" that Multiut obtained for Gore, but the service Multiut provided as his purchasing agent. Gore is suing upon the service and agency contract – not the natural gas - and has alleged that Multiut breached its duties in two respects;
{1} By falsely and intentionally charging and retaining for its own use funds that were to be applied to a City of Chicago 8% gross receipts tax (“Tax”), which it had promised would be placed in escrow and forwarded to the City. Between December 1990 and January 1995 (after the City of Chicago changed the Tax), Multiut collected approximately $14,000 from Gore and at least $1 million to $1.5 million from the Class, for this Tax that was not actually imposed upon Multiut. 2nd Amd. Compl. 7-9, '3! Multiut not only failed to inform Plaintiff and
the Class that the money collected was not so applied or escrowed, but also failed to escrow, account for, and refund the funds with interest.
(2) By overcharging for the service of providing natural gas. Multiut was to charge for natural gas actually supplied to Gore and the Class on a set per therm cost basis, plus an amount equal to 1/2 of their respective per therm cost savings per month, instead, Multiut overcharged and billed Gore at least $100.000 and the class millions of dollars and refuses to provide an accounting and refund with interest. Id. 10-11.
Gore has further alleged that Multiut prevented him from discovering the wrongs by intentionally concealing them until at least December 2000, when he discovered the truth and could not reasonably have done so earlier. (Gore testified at his deposition on May 8, 2002 that he first discovered the discrepancies in his bills, the overcharges, the taxes, and failure to escrow the taxes, in December 2000. See Exh, D, pp. 25-28,) Thereafter he was unable to obtain any refund and based thereon, terminated Multiut’s services on or about June 2001, However, the wrongful acts are continuing to date, in that Multiut continues to 'refuse to provide an accounting and refund with interest to Gore and the Class, all to their detriment and damage. They seek imposition of constructive trust (id. 22), an accounting and damages in not less than the foregoing amounts plus interest (id, 9-13, 23).
Gore filed the original Class Action Complaint on Nov. 20, 2001, and in lieu of responding to a motion to dismiss, filed the 1st Amended Class Action Complaint Feb. 14, 2002, setting forth 4 counts for (1) breach of
3-: The City did not and will not collect the 8% Tax, presumably because of U.S. constitutional restrictions as to the interstate commerce clause and exceptions for interstate pipelines and out-of-state suppliers. As a result in 1994 the City changed the tax from an 8% gross receipts tax to a flat rate tax of 1.4 to 1.5 cents per therm. 2nd Amd. Comp. P 8. in Multiut’s response to First Request to Admit {attached hereto as Exh. F), it has admitted the following statements about this Tax; (8) that Multiut collected approximately $14,000 in Tax from Gore between [protected]; and (9) that Multiut spent its customers Tax payments on business expenses.. Yehuda Draiman testified to the same effect in his deposition 1-10-02 See transcript excerpts attached hereto as Exh. E, at pp, 36-37,40, 68, and Exh, 6 thereto.

Bogus agreement to cancel after ordering than they take $149.95 from your account immediately then tell you that they can only refund $100.00. Beware people!
My credit card was charged 149.95 approximately 3 weeks after I had agreed to pay 4.95 s&h on a 'free' 2 week sample of Phenerthin, a diet pill.When I had my bank challenge the charge, and cancel my card, I received a letter stating www.usaveonpills.com obtained an authorization code. I never authorized anything more than 4.95!
Beware!
On the 21st of August 2007 I ordered a free sample of diet pills and just had to pay shipping of $4.95. I gave them my router number and on the 24th of August the took the money from my account as of today I still have not recieved the product not the refund I asked for.
company billed my crdit card $149.95 for a product which was returned. They originally said it could be returned for a FULL refund. They will not credit my account. Now they have turned me into a collection agency for more money. I DO NOT HAVE ANY OF THEIR PRODUCT!
i had only order a free sample for $4.95 then found out they charged my account $149.95 which i did not approve of purchasing after. so i try calling and leaving message so i could talk to someone about this situation no respone. i hope my bank could help me fix this problem with this company.
Happening to me right now charge came under the name Homerun Media. Started at Prestige Marketing Services who I gave original acct numbers to on 12/9/07 for the $4.95 charge which I will not deny or refuse to pay. They deny any affiliation with Homerun Media but phone number given to my financial institution is for Pure Energy Products [protected] this might help. Have not recieved the product and wonder what the outcome will be my bank is investigating this carefully and I will not lose any funds. Posted against my account on 12/31/07. Dispute filed 1/2/08 would have been at the bank if open New Years Day.
I am going through the same thing right now! I ordered the free sample for $4.95 then found out they charged my account $149.95 and are sending me another shipment which I did not order. I just disputed the charges with my bank so I hope it works out. I cannot get a hold of these people to discuss this problem.
