      Product Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      December 1st, I opted for the try before you buy for $6.37. I called 10 days later to tell them I will send it back. The operator told me that it would be cancelled and there was "no need" to return it. I thought this was completely resolved until on January 18th, ** ****** ******* was charged $1 and another transaction for $51.87. When I call the ************* they NEVER answer. The recording says you can ***** ***** which DOES NOT WORK, the chat window does nothing, goes nowhere. The recording says they will call you back when a 'live rep' is available. But they call and then hang up. WOW WHAT A SCAM this company has got going on! So much hassle. I want a full refund for all of this trouble. $59.24 is owed.
