Another Victim of the Glymetrol Marketing Scam, Brian Hill claims free trial is a scam

Author: Brian D. Hill

Quote from me: It’s not trying when your forced to return the free trial bottles not to mention having to pay the shipping, and even then you may still be charged.

Before I will tell you what happened to me I will show you other reviews on the Glymetrol Marketing scam of a 30 day free trial of two free Glymetrol bottles that aren’t really free.

Glymetrol is prodoct advertised on TV.They claim to be a natural way to lower blood sugar.They offer a 30 day trial…..NOT!!!!
I tried it with NO results.I canceled as agreed and a week later the thiefs took a hundred bucks from my bank acc.I ave heard every excuse in the book as to why they haven’t returned my money.My last conversation ended in a manager telling me F*** YOU sue us.This is SCAM ! Don’t under any cicumstance give these people your debit or cedit card info.SCAM SCAM SCAM.

This is a real creative marketing scam by Natural Health Network of Brea, CA.

This company advertises that you can get a FREE bottle of their product; just pay the shipping and handling fee of $9.95. The product is actually GOOD! They rip you off with the marketing scam.

For several months, I’ve been on a Diabetes medication study. During the last couple of months, I’d found it impossible to get my blood sugar level below 210, even with the trial medication. Desperate, I ordered the Glymetrol free trial, and within a week, my blood sugar had dropped to the 160 range. It is still staying in that range or lower, and I’m very happy about that.

Now, about the scam. They TELL you that you’re only paying $9.95 for the FREE trial. They let you know that bottles normally cost you $49.99 each. So they send you two bottles. Then 30 days later, they bill you $99.98 plus tax (they charge you for BOTH bottles!) The “FREE” bottle wasn’t free at all!

My recommendation: Google Glymetrol and buy it from a distributer other than Natural Health Network. You can get it a lot cheaper, and you won’t feel ripped off. AND, IT DOES WORK! I just don’t want to work with any company that does business this way.

Both complaints have shown up at around the same month this happened to me on the month of January in 2010. The first complaint originated on the Date: 2010-01-08, 8:57AM PST on Craigslist, and the second one I found at RipOffReport was posted on the date of Friday, January 22, 2010. So the amount of complaints is starting to form and I bet with this article getting out more complaints will start going above ground and lead to a investigation of the company that marketed Glymetrol. I am all for alternative medicine, herbal supplements, and vitamins but if bad companies market the stuff it hurts the reputation of alternative products and in a way helps the Rockefeller family which has made a huge investment off of peoples suffering.

Now I will reveal to you all what happened with me and what doesn’t make any sense about the way they set up this free trial. First when I saw the commercial I decided to order the free trial and got the bottles weeks later and decided to only take little a day to keep the supply going for long and then yesterday  on January 28 2010 as the credit card statement was being checked I noticed $100 has been charged to the credit card for Gymetrol. First of all it should have only been$40 and we should only pay more for each new 2-bottle shipment but instead of charging $80 they charged $100. It says from their website “And your credit card will be automatically billed at a discounted price of just $39.99 per bottle plus shipping and handling for each new 2-bottle shipment”. I never read this part and thought that if I took advanced dosages I go through it all within 30 days but from what it sounds you don’t really get to keep the bottle but your renting it. Since the contract doesn’t really say theres a limit they know that people can simply take all the capsules out of those bottles they have to return and claim that they were all eaten within the 30 day trial then return the stupid bottles and not be charged. If they claimed they can’t get a refund the Contract says that you return a portion of whats left of the bottles back so in a way this renting bottles method is a very unreliable method for a herbal free trial. The people at Glymetrol knows a way around being forced to return whats left of the two bottles (which is in turn a health risk to have capsules from which other people may have had before being sent to me) to all be taken out so they charge people regardless of whether they return the bottles or not which really means Glymetrol isn’t really free but a marketing gimmick to sell outrageous $40 capsules when health stores will sell herbal solutions for way less with no chance of scamming. I even found Chinese diabetic herbs for around $20 and thats from China so finding herbal solutions shall be very very cheap if you know where to go.

Another thing that sounds fishy is this statement from their official website “If you are not completely satisfied or simply don’t want to continue with us, give us a call within the first 30 days to receive a return authorization number and return instructions for the remaining product and you will never be billed for the product price.”. So I was right the 30 day free trial isn’t really a free trial but renting herbs. How is renting herbs good for health concerns? and why don’t they tell their customers on Television that the herbs are for rent and the capsules could have been infected by someone who got sick or had the flu but those capsules had to be returned. Again I believe this method is a serious health risk.

Also I believe it is misleading to say try Glymetrol and just pay shipping and handling. They lead you on to believing you get the free trial and can continue or cancel the trial but having to send back the herbs as if they still own it doesn’t make them a free trial but more like you can rent the herbal solution and use it for the 30 day period. I think this method of business turns away customers from soimething that may help diabetics depending on certain factors..

I also read that someone that did return it also had their credit card information shared so if that ever happens I will start fighting this company if they ever start adding extra charges that shouldn’t happen. A company shouldn’t ever sell peoples credit card info but some do things like that. I hope they won’t sell info or else they have become a real scam.

Buzz this!
