Berry Slim Cancellation is impossible without charge

The requirements of this 'free trial' are impossible to meet. Since they calculate the days of the free trial including the day they send it -- half the trial period is over by the time you get it and if you don't have time try it before canceling before you have to cancel and return - as they discuss in their promotion -- you won't have time so forget trying it out. It doesn't work anyway. There's no doubt they're making their money on all the people who pay for their 'free' trial. DON'T

Berry Slim Did not receive product and now account is being deducted

Hello my name is Moti Faatuiese and I live at 400 Angela Way, San Jacinto CA. I recently had applied for a free trial of Berry Slim pills; I have yet to receive the product and now my bank account is being deducted for this product. I cannot find a phone number to get in contact with this company. So if anyone from this so called company reads this message, please cancel my free trial, subscription or whatever. I want this company to cancel anything I have to do with this company and return any of my money you have taken.

Thank You,
Moti Faatuiese

I was also a victim of this scam, but luckily I bank with a wonderful bank that took care of the charges and helped me through this issue. If you find yourself in this same boat please contact the company at [protected] (Acai Berry Slim) to cancel your account. You will have to call two or three times to cancel your account as they do not cancel it the first time you call. They tell you that a email will be sent within 10 minutes of the call. If you do not receive an email keep calling back until you do to make sure that your account has been cancelled and you receive the cancellation email. It is a good idea to also get the persons name and employee number when you speak to someone.

Berry Slim is not a product produced or sold by Central Coast Nutraceuticals. I advise contacting your bank to find the actual company that has charged your account.

I agree completely with all negative reviews of Berryslim. I received a free sample and one week later a charge of over $60 appeared on my card which I never authorized. Berryslim is a ripoff, be very careful! Thanks for the phone #. The lady was very nice and said" read the fine print! the charges stand but I have canceled your account." Now I need to go thru the stop payment process with my bank. I will not spend the money to send back the product cause it's already in the trash. Mark

i JUST got off of the phone with a "Berry Slim" representative and he said that I would be refunded for all of my charges as long as I send the Berry Slim back. I'm willing to pay shipping and handeling as long as I get back the $70.41 that they took from my account! Now, I asked him what happens if the shipment doesn't come, which it hadn't the month before. He says that it would be fine they would still refund me. Does that make any sense? Heres the number if you still haven't been able to contact anyone. [protected].

BERRY SLIM is nothing more than a scam to make money! I saw a website on March 9th advertising a product with AcaiBerry to help you lose weight. It used Oprah, CNN and other major networks to state how good it was, so of course I thought it must be a great product. It was a free 30 day trial and I just had to pay the shipping of $3.41 and if I was dissatisfied I could cancel within 30 days and nothing further would happen. Well, I NEVER got the trial order but the money was taken out of my bank on March 11th. Then on April 1st an amount of $59.41 was also deducted from my checking account, which I did NOT authorize and I DID NOT get any product as well. My bank listed the charges under the name "Berry Slim" in Harrisburg Pennsylvania so I tried looking for them in Yahoo Yello Pages but found no listing. I pulled up the website and went to their Customer Service area and it gives information for a company called Central Coast Nutraceuticals. They have never heard of Berry Slim and do not sell it. They checked their records and could not find me in their computers. They also said that the charges I mentioned do not match ANY of their charges so this Berry Slim is erroneously using their information and is most likely running a scam. I have tried every which way possible to locate this "company" and cannot find them so I must surmize that indeed someone is running a very good scam and alot of us are falling for it. PLEASE DON"T BE ANOTHER VICTIM! DON"T FALL FOR THE BERRY SLIM SCAM! ~Eva Morse, Louisville, KY

Berry Slim SCAM

I am SO upset. I also was scammed by this company. This is a HUGE SCAM. If you do not want to be charged $65.00 for their Free Trial do not fall for it. The product does NOT work anyway. I tried to cancel this shipment also. But it is impossible. I believe Oprah should know of this. Visit the Berry Slim sight. Just what language is that? Where is this company REALLY? Tell all you know do not fall for this.

I ordered a free sample with minimul charges of ($4.95), the next thing I find out that they have charged my checking account multiple unauthorized charges ($45.00 and ($59.41). I will attemp to contact the company on 11-02-09. Thier website lacks customer service contact info.

After filling out a simple survey and being offered a trial for 4.95, two weeks later 69.95 was taken from my account without permission or notice. After contacting this company i was told there was nothing they could do. I WANT MY MONEY BACK.

I have just started being scammed by this company and the bad part is the bank is agreeing with them that I owe this money. I "tried" to cancel on the 30th of May when I first noticed this charge, of course that didn't work. I too am being charged 99 dollars. The weird part is that Wal-mart is the one who sent me to this site.

This is a SCAM. My husband only authorized the $4.95 charge, but they hit us with additional charges.

Luckily, my credit card company (Bank of America) alerted me and I was able to stop this before they hit us with even more charges.

The nice lady in the Fraud department at BoA told me that if I didn't close the card, the Berry Slim people would submit charges under a different name to get around a fraud alert. Best thing to do is cancel your card and get new cards with new account numbers, she told me.

So I've been on the phone with BoA's Fraud department cancelling my card and getting new ones.

Seems to me that Oprah has been endorsing a lot of scams lately. Maybe she's getting a cut of their ill-gotten gains? I know this much, I won't ever believe Oprah about anything ever again.

I also tried numerous times to get a hold of this company over the phone for cancelation, but to no avail I to was given the "can you hold please?" and never gotten back to...

How's the Better Business Bureau?

Just call your credit card company and tell them that Berry Slim is a Scam and they will stop payments.

Acai Berry Slim is the largest SCAM on the planet at this time. I agree, I can't believe Oprah endorses this product. I guess a quick fix for being obese is the hook. We are a fat nation, and I believe that if you are looking for a quick weight loss remedy Acai Berry is the nations #1 choice at this time. I feel sorry for those who are in dire need of a quick weight loss remedy, as this makes us a target for such scams. I am not obese by any means, however, I could stand to loose a few pounds. I ordered the Acai Berry Slim trial offer, and like the other commentators was scammed. I personally believe that these companies need to face the Senate and FDA and be held accountable for the monies stolen from desperate individuals. I feel like such a sucker, and that is what they prey on and hope to accomplish. Lets shatter self-estemes while were at it. Hopefully the masses will rise and demand retrebution for being taken. How do these people sleep at night?
