PureLift card scam

What to Do About PureLift scam
Complaint Rating:  100 % with 4 votes
Company information:
PureLift
United States

Hi - I was also unpleasantly surprised with the assumptions this company made and logged my complaint here last night (Maudie05). This morning I called the number on the glossy flyer that arrived with "my new shipment" which is the only contact information they have provided - (866) - 989 - 2690 and it was dead. No ring tone and eventually just cut off. The web site I googled for them said "this site may harm your computer" - so dont go there either.

I called the number they seem to have provided you above (1-866-989-8944) which was picked up promptly with "you wish to cancel your subscription?". An employee called Toni (employee id 807) cancelled "the monthly debits". Her response to me saying they had been WEEKLY debits was "sorry about that ma'am". She gave me a cancellation number and assured me it was all behind me. I asked about the 3 new bottles I had received without ordering them and she gave me another number to call for this (NOT the one on the letter).

So then I called 1- 888-868-7512 and spoke to April (employer id 155702) who asked which product I was complaining about then looked me up and again has assured me that "your automatic shipment order is cancelled ma'am". When I advised I did not place that order she again said "sorry about that ma'am, you have a good day". Seriously! They are polite and sound very very worn out! Anyway - I asked her bluntly the questions "will there be any more debits?', "will you be accessing my credit card for any further charges?" "will I ever hear from you about any product again", "will I have to cancel my card to get rid of you?"- reply to each was a weary "no ma'am".

I have also advised my bank of this. Just in case - but have not cancelled my card.

Hope this helps you ...

I cant believe that they advertise this as FREE

How dare they keep our card details and just bill us for the stuff you say is FREE to start with.
I am going to definitely do something about this
This is theft
I wonder how many letter they get because you cant email them.
WHAT IS FREE. The $12.00 post that they steal off us?

I was lucky I saw this. I phoned and am returning mine today. So everybody beware !!!

Clearlift Ultra give nothing Free in fact they deduct unauthorised amounts from ur Credit Card. I had to cancel my Card to stop tthis SCAM. Be careful this is the most expensive cream I NEVER ordered. Something needs to be done about them - but the product comes under about 5 different names to confuse people.

I ordered what I thought was a free product and knew I would pay for shipping however I was overcharged on that and then somehow I got charged over $95.00 for what Visa told me was a fitness/ weightloss membership. I am appauled at the misrepresentation of this product and terrible sales practices. It really makes the consumer wary to buy on the internet which is a terrible disservice to legitimate sellers.
Purelift you should be fined for deceptive sales practices.

Notice all of the SAME canned responses. SCAM, SCAM, SCAM. You may want to cancel your credit card to be safe, I sure did. And please file complaints with FTC and other agencies as noted above.

i live in australia and have been scammed after ordering a FREE trial of pure lift . i agree that is next to impossible to contact this company .when you start getting all those charges, and it seems as if they work under a few different company names . iused a debit card to pay for the postage of my free sample, and in the unsuing weeks have had over 4700 DEBITED FROM MY ACCOUNT (NOW CLOSED) AND UNDER SEVERAL DIFFERENT COMPANY NAMES, I ACCEPT THAT MY CHANCES OF SEEING ANY OF THAT MONEY AGAIN ARE MOST LIKELY ZERO AS I AM SURE THEY HAVE SOME LOOP HOLE TO PROTECT THEM i was charg
ed for 8 products and services i never ordered or recieved

I too, fell for this scam. I thought it was a free trial, only having to pay around $3 postage but they charged me $13.
I received my bottle and realised that they would charge me every month, so I rang straight away and they told me that if I posted back the bottle BEFORE the 16th of the month, they would not charged my account. They gave me a cancellation number and said that my account was now cancelled.
I returned the bottele on the 6th, which was before the weekend, with registered post so that I could track it. I saw on the 13th that it had been delivered, so I thought that all was well, since they got it before the 16th.
I was OUTRAGED when they charged my account $94+ again yesterday.
I've been trying to call them but was told it was out of office hours, so I'm gonna keep trying.
I'm also going to try to get my bank to back-charge the money, but they told me that it would only be possible 15 days after the cancellation- so I'll have to wait another 9 days.
I might have to cancel my card, which is REALLY inconvenient because of my other direct debits.
I will NEVER fall for 'free' trials anymore- I've learned heaps from this rotten experience.
I'm feeling really nervous because my VISA is actually a debit card and I cannot afford it. I was lucky that my account didn't end up in the red- I didn't expect them to still take this money out of it.
I don't have their email address- I am in Australia. Does anyone know how to contact them in Australia by email?
