    I made a one-time $29.00 purchase (total $31.21) of the "One and Done" online product, but then began being charged unauthorized monthly fees of $52.74. I have now had to cancel the account completely to stop these charges, losing access to the purchased product. Requesting either:1) Provide the "One and Done" product as advertised and refund $105.58 in unauthorized charges 2) Refund the total amount charged of $136.79

    Paid $29/+tax for access to some training materials. Did not authorize reoccurring payments and have found this website to be bait click scams. I want to cancel my my membership!The website doesnt allow you to cancel, it takes you through more bait click scams that offer you $9.95/+tax upgrades and the icon/button to cancel doesnt function. Another scam, you people are horrible and should be ashamed of yourselves.

    Hi there, My name is ****** and I would like to request e refund of an unauthorised charge on my credit card. I have noticed a charge of ***** from Svelte Media, in 22/09/2023 (1 payment in total so far). I have not bought any other service from that company (except from the initial charge of $29) nor agreed to any subscription. I only bought the Meta boost program. It's supposed to be a ONE-TIME purchase of US$29. The e-mail used for this purchase was ********************* and I have declined all the up-selling offers during the purchase process, so I kindly request you refund me the 1 payment of ***** and make sure that you cancel and remove my credit card information immediately.

    Hi ******,

    Thank you for contacting Svelte Training.

    I am sorry to hear that you are requesting a refund, however, I am happy to assist.

    I am happy to clarify that the  Meteboost Connection program involves a one-time fee of $29. However, it looks like you also opted into the 7-day free trial of our  Accelerated ************************ membership. This is something that is voluntary and had to be selected on the following page after you purchased Metaboost. The membership is billed at $49 per month starting when your free trial period is over. After reviewing your account, I cancelled this subscription and refunded $49.

    Please allow **** business days to reflect on your statement. A refund confirmation email was also sent to you.

    Feel free to reach out again if you are in need of any further assistance.

    I signed up for the Meta Boost program in January for a one-time fee of $29. Since February of 2023 (8 payments) $49 had been charged to my credit card without my authorization. I contacted Svelte Media on Monday, 9/18/23 to request a refund. I was told they can only refund for the past 60 days (2 payments) of $49. I do have emails confirming that as well as a confirming email cancelling the service. I never signed up for this service nor was I aware I was being charged monthly until this past Monday. I am requesting a refund of the remaining $294.

    I am rejecting this response because I was unaware of these charges being made to my credit card.  I did not sign up for the 7 day free trial and was not aware I had this service nor did I ever use it.  No emails were ever sent regarding *********** nor the charges that were being incurred.  

    I would appreciate a full refund of $392.  I do see 2 payments of $49 have been refunded to my credit card, and I do have an email stating they are refunding a total of $196.

    Sincerely,

    ***************************

    Hello ********,

    Thank you for your reply. We already extended our policy and refunded 4 months of charges from June to September 2023. Have you emailed ** before regarding your previous charges? 

    Customer Answer

    Complaint: 20630692

    No, I did not contact you about previous charges because I was unaware of the charges until I noticed them on my September statement.  That got me looking into the matter further.  I contacted SVTraining the same day that I noticed the charges.  

    I definitely would have cancelled right away.  It would have been nice to be notified that you were charging my card each month.

    All I ever received was a few emails with recipes and exercise tips that I assumed were part of the original $29 that I did authorize to be paid.   Nothing about ***********.


    Sincerely,

    Hi, 
    The membership is 100% voluntary and you had to opt in, you also received billing emails prior to every charge sent to the email on file. We can only do the 120 days refund as a one-time courtesy.

    Complaint: 20630692

    I am rejecting this response because I never received any emails concerning the billing.  I never received any emails concerning ***********.  As stated previously, I get an occasional email from Metaboost (the one time $29 charge that I did sign up for) with a recipe or some other tip.  I have checked my spam email as well...nothing.  I have never used the ***********, as I was unaware that unauthorized charges were being made.

    As stated earlier, I would appreciate a full refund.

    Sincerely,

    ***************************

    Business Response

    Date: 09/28/2023

    Dear ********,

    I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to personally address your concerns regarding your subscription to *********** and the billing issues you've experienced. We take these matters seriously, and I apologize for any inconvenience you've faced.

    First and foremost, I want to clarify that we understand your concerns about the subscription duration and billing notifications. Our standard policy for refunds is 60 days. We apologize for any confusion or misunderstanding that *** have arisen regarding this matter.

    Regarding your concerns about not receiving emails concerning ***********, we sincerely apologize for any lapse in communication. We understand the importance of staying connected with our valued customers. We have reviewed our email records, and it appears that we are sending you email notifications. We are actively working to improve our communication processes to ensure that such problems do not occur in the future.

    Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience you've faced and appreciate your understanding. We have already extended our policy to you for 120-days. Unfortunately, we can no longer cover the charges from Feb to May as it way passed our money back guarantee. 

    Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.

    Hi -- I would like to request a refund of an unauthorised charge on my credit card. Unfortunately, it is only now that I have noticed a monthly charge of **$49 from SVTRAIN.COM since 05/23/2023 (5 payments in total so far). The only service I bought from Svelte Training was supposed to a one-time purchase of **$29. I have declined all the up-selling offers. So I kindly request you refund me the total of US$245 (5 payments of US$49 each) and cancel my subscription to prevent any further charges.

    Hello,On 2/5/23 I purchased from this company. On 2/6/23 I sent in a cancelation. I received an email confirming that they cancel my subscription and that I would not get charged anything further. However, they DID continue to charge my account $49 monthly for 8 months! I have emailed support and they refuse to refund the full amount that has been taken from my account, $392.00. They replied stating that they will only refund half of what they have taken; and keep $196.00 of my money due to "policy". They have not shown the legal "policy" that fits my situation. Their policy refers to a customer who is currently cancelling; however, I had cancelled 8 months ago and have not accessed the program for this entire time. Therefore their refund policy does not apply to my situation. This company continued taking my money for 8 months, AFTER THEY CANCELLED and now they refuse to return the full money. Here is a copy of my email confirmation on 2/7/23, when I initially cancelled. I can provide all documents needed including several emails with this company.I would like this resolved by getting the full amount back ($392) that was taken without my consent from my **** account. ********************** Training Support <******************************************>Feb 7, 2023, 5:44?PM to me Hi Cat,Thank you for reaching out to Svelte Training, we're more than happy to help.We are sorry to hear that you're opting out of the program.No worries!

The e-mail used for this purchase was ******************** and I have declined all the up-selling offers during the purchase process, so I kindly request you refund me the 5 payments of US$49 and make sure that you cancel and remove my credit card information immediately. I signed in the *************************************************** website and there is not way to cancel a subscription or even knowing what i am suppose to be paying for.I look forward to hearing from you with the explanations. It is incredible that a lot of people are complaining about the same and it appears to be more like an scam rather that a service. It is evident that you take advantage of tour structure to see who falls. it is really disappointing an concerning that if don't check my statements i won't find out about this charges and wonder how many people are in the same page being charged without even knowing.
