Yesterday was the start of a campaign to get my money back.

This will never work, I am sure but take my experience and that of others as a warning.

I do not buy merchandise just because I see an ad on-line but a month or so ago I say the ads on DU for the teeth whitening products.

Please go to www.ripoffreports.com before thinking of buying these 2 advertised products.

Two companies involved. They give you the impression that they work in conjunction with each other.I did not receive one of the product samples. Got the other sample and found it useless. I contacted one of the companies to cancel, was told they would take care of both but Monday when my Credit Card bill came, there is a charge for $88.87.

The company that never sent me the original sample is the one that billed me for the $88.97, telling me that I did not cancel on time.

This whole thing smacks of funny business and I seem to be getting nowhere with them.

Investigate the reports before you give them your CC #. I have notified my CC company and have established grounds for a fight if they try and charge anything else. It is up to me to fight on this current bill. I will post my experience on ripoff reports if I can figure out how to put the sequence of events together.

You can see their adds all over the web and on DU if you look around while not logged in. I would love to hear via PM if anyone else here has had a problem with them.

What seems to be the problem in doing that?  What's to figure out?

What the DUmmie means is "When I can figure out a story to tell that DOESN'T make me look like a total reatard-fool"

But the primitives always do anyway, no matter how hard they try not to.

There's no way to describe giving your CC number to an AdBot company that doesn't make you look like a retard.

A DUmbass and it's allowance/welfare/SSDI are soon parted.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Anyone who doesn't realize that buying stuff off the internet because a banner advertisement told you to is an idiot.

But it wouldnt surprise me to find that the dump is full of overweight people with yellow teeth who play Evony while chatting to each other using their lesbian ImVu avatars.
