Walkfit Platinum charges

I ORDERED A PAIR OF WALKFIT WHICH WAS SUPPOSEDLY 19.95 ON THE WEBSITE AND CHARGED IT. I MADE SURE I ORDERED REGULAR DELIVERY. AS I WAS ABOUT TO SUBMIT THEY OFFERED YOU ANOTHER PRODUCT CALLED COMFORT CUSHIONS FOR THE PRICE OF 29.90 WHICH I CAN RETURN IF I DID NOT LIKE IT. I RECEIVED THE ORDER LAST WEEK FOR THE TOTAL OF 68.65 IF I CHOOSE TO KEEP THE COMFORT CUSHIONS OF WHICH THE 24.85 WAS SHIPPING AND HANDLING. THIS IS A TOTAL RIPOFF FEE. THE PACKAGE I RECEIVED COULD NOT HAVE COST MORE THAN $3.00 FOR SHIPPING AND THEREFORE THE TOTAL SHIPPING SHOULD HAVE NOT BE OVER THAN 9.95
NOW IF I CHOOSE TO RETURN ANYTHING I WOULD HAVE TO PAY MORE SHIPPING THAT IS WHY I THINK THIS COMPANY IS A TOTAL RIP OFF CO.

Walkfit Platinum Unethical business practices

I ordered the walkfit orthodic product. Customer service was poor, but the product was acceptable when finally received. However during the order process, I elected a 'free' gift for joint support formula. As is typical with these types of 'internet free gifts', the free gift triggered an online 'subscription', whereby the company continues to send product and bill your credit card for the charges.

This company's business practices are unethical. Once I triggered this free gift, I could not get Customer Service by phone to cancel the subscription. Nor could I get them to provide the order information or terms that or copies of any commitments I made authorizing these transactions. Supervisors supposedly exist, but are 'unavailable' and unable to return calls. I tried repeatedly, calling on the hour for 6 hours straight.

The sad part of all of this, is that their core product is actually decent. Their sideline is however how they apparently make revenue and their business practices are very unsavory.

Walkfit Platinum Do not order from them

Do NOT order walkfit inserts/orthotics from WALKFIT, LLC www.walkfit.com (website)...located in Rancho Cusamonga, CA. they are the manufacturers of walkfit orthotics inserts (a great product by the way). I placed the order, entered my credit info, etc...expected to see the final invoice page for the grand total (shipping, tax, etc). Well, there wasn't one. There was no email with invoice. The next morning, I had a charge for $89.60 on my checking account (the inserts are only $20 each, I ordered 2) and no idea why until I got the package and found out they charged me $29.80 shipping for a package that totaled ONE OUNCE in weight! It's only costing me 4.80 to send the order back PRIORITY for a refund but, of course, there is no refund on shipping :( what a ripoff! I have written and called with no response. I'm filing a complaint with the BBB...they shouldn't be allowed to get away with this. They are making an additional $25.00 on every order that won't be refunded!

After trying the Walkfit insoles and determining they weren't acceptable, I followed the return instructions for my "100 percent guaranteed refund". After waiting for months, I called the company and they said they never received the return package. I mailed it just as instructed and I have no way to prove they received it or not.
It's a bogus company-I wish I would have read the complaintsboard before ever ordering! They give you a free gift of foot lotion that looks full size in the picture but when you get it it's tiny. Don't buy from this company!

Walkfit Platinum Scam

I received product from Walkfit even though I did not order anything and they have now charged by debit card. I will now have to make several long distance phones calls to try and get the funds returned to my checking account.

I previously ordered some insoles to put in my shoes and this is how they managed to get my debit card number. I recommend to any customer, not to give out your credit or debit card number as you will probably be receiving items in the mail that you did not order.

Am not happy with this company and will not order anything again.

Walkfit Platinum Scam

Please! save yourself some trouble and hard earned money: DO NOT ORDER WALKFIT PRODUCTS.

When you place an order for the WalkFit product as advertised on TV for $19.95 it will be placed through an automated system which will tell you you'll be receiving some supplement pills (Joint Support Formula a $39.99 value). As it is automated you have no choice but to receive the pills along with the advertised product and when you get your invoice it will be for almost $50! Nothing close to what you expected. Why? Well when you place an order you "enroll" yourself in the Joint Support membership (the pills) for $39.90, plus tax $3.92, plus shipping $4.95 for a grand total of $48.77!
The number for customer service listed on the invoice does not get you in contact with the company, fishy isn't it? I actually read a previous complaint on this website in which the real customer service number was listed. When I finally spoke to a representative he could not explain why the $19.95 product is not an option on their automated ordering system. Instead he proceeded to explain that you "clearly get a letter stating that you must call to cancel your membership" if you don't want to be ripped off! How was I supposed to cancel a membership I wasn't aware of purchasing to avoid getting charged if the letter stating so arrived with the product? This is a total scam. Also when I asked to immediately cancel, the representative asked, "Well have you tried the pills?" As if these pills would magically make me forget that your company just tried to scam me.

A final warning! If you are going to return the product you must call them with a Delivery Confirmation # (aka tracking #) given to you by the parcel company you use. Also an authorization # must be put on the package. This number I got when I spoke with the WalkFit rep, who by the way freaked out when I told him about the money back guarantee on the website. He put me on hold at the mention of this guarantee so make sure you ask!

As noted above, I had the same experience. I received an email notifying me of an order that I had not placed. I called [protected]. Thanks to the first person that posted.

NOTE: customer service rep. advised me to NOT OPEN and mark the package refused. return postage will be on Walkfit. they will credit my account upon receipt of returned package.

There are equivalent products that cost considerably less!

Walkfit Platinum Overcharging

Walkfit posts a price on the website and when you order they change the price and overcharged my credit card almost double. When I filed a complaint their service agents gave me a big ### runaround and would not cancel my order. They also charged $9.95 for a fast ship, which I did not request and tacked on an additional $39.95 shipping and handling charge which was in addition to their $9.95 shipping charge for each item. They are theives and will not work with you to make things right. They know that credit card companies will give you a hard time to file a dispute and will hang up the phone on you. Do not deal with this company. The orthotics are very cheaply made and are not worth anything and do not work. Use caution...

Walkfit Platinum Overcharged and no communiction

WalkFit overcharged me by $9.95. I authorized them to charge me $19.95 for the product and $9.95 for shipping. They charged me $19.95 for the product and $19.90 for shipping. I sent them an email on March 21, 2009 requesting a refund and despite there autoreply email stating that they would respond within 48 to 72 hours I have not had a response in 4 months.

Likewise, I ordered the walkfit and was charged a additional $24.85 for rush shipping. I no for a fact that I did no order them rush shipping. Of course when I called and asked if I sent them back would my $24.85 be returned and was told no, only the cost of the cushions would be refunded. I am quite livid about this rip off. I did not authorize this amount.

Walkfit Platinum Ripped Off by them

Walkfit Ripped Me Off of $44.85 on 11-24-2008 and an email from Walkfit Verifying their Treachery is included.

Walkfit is apparently in business to rip people off; But, is this the idea of the creator of the product or of a money grubbing underling? We many never really know the truth to that question.

I was ripped off for $44.85 so I of course sent several emails (one of them enclosed) stating what had happened and what I was going to do if the situation was not rectified. The representative I got was actually a nice guy who was apparently caught in the middle between an irate customer and a rip off boss. I very seldom ever use a phone because I live with a closed Head Injury and most of the time cannot talk "normally." It takes me quite a while to get out what I want and/or need to say but this time I was able to convey my message and I will admit, though I was striving very hard to keep myself in check I was yelling at him. His calm voice and reassuring tone soon calmed me down and he wasn't pushing for information like most of the people you get do so I was finally able to tell him what happened to me.

He canceled the order (Or So I Was Told) and any future orders (I bet you didn't know that the company sneaks a letter in your order making YOU responsible to keep them from STEALING you money. They set it up so that Even if you did NOT order any of the CRAP Powders and other CRAP they push, you have to call and tell them NOT to RIP YOU OFF. If you do not make the call the wording of the RIP OFF FORM gives them your permission to most literally RIP YOU OFF Forever!

I have checked my account repeatedly and the $44.85 was moved from Pending to Posted AFTER I talked to their Representative so the money was now Officially STOLEN. Being disabled and living on a very fixed income, that money was set aside for our Thanksgiving Feast but thanks to Walkfit things were leaner this year and I bet Walkfit does not CARE at all.

I will NEVER do business with this pack of thieves again and I hope no one else gets Ripped Off like I was. The best way to insure you don't get ripped off is just Not to do business with them; that is until they discover a way to sneak one of their rip off letters into something else: how they could do that I do not know but after this incident I will not put anything past their greed.

After sending another email to Walkfit I received the following Email from one of their Representatives.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your email. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you in regards to Joint Support Formula.

We would be glad to explain this to you that when you placed the order for the Walk fit, a trial offer of Joint Support Formula was offered, and your Walk fit and trial offer arrived with a letter advising that unless we received a call to cancel, you would continue getting future orders.

However we have canceled the continuity on your order. You will not be receiving any further shipment of joint support formula.

If you have any further questions please feel free to call customer service at [protected]. Our working hours are from 7:00am - 9:00pm Monday through Friday and 7:00am to 3:00pm Saturday, Pacific Standard Time.

Thank you,

CSR Andy

___________________________________________

If you do not call they can steal from you forever! Why do they do this, can't they stay in business any other way? I mean is their products that bad that they must STEAL from people to stay afloat? If that is the case then it is time for them to sink. They declared WAR on my family and they ruined our Thanksgiving gathering and did not even care. I use a Visa Green dot PrePaid Debit card and this is where I had the money for our Thanksgiving products. Needless to say when I checked my account (and i check it every morning) I discovered the theft so I started emailing then had to call. You can see at the beginning the problem I have with one on one contact whether in person or over the phone. I was in the Military and served my country but afterward I worked as a Machinist and during the construction of a steel mesh tool crib a foreman laid a steel bracing bar 8 foot long x about 3/4 inches thick x about 4 inches wide across the top of the cage without fastening it down or telling me it was there. I was on my knees marking and drilling anchor bolt holes when he went away to use the phone.

Most of what I remember from that time period and quite a few years after are what people have told me. I fought for my life (or so I am told) and then in 1983 I had a total psychological collapse and the fight to stay alive began all over again. I still suffer from very serious effects from that accident all because I was not treated by a medical doctor properly (but that is another story.)

2001 brought another set of hurdles when during the 3rd or 4th of what would become 16 heart catheters the doctor doing the procedure managed to nick my sciatic nerve as he was inserting the guide sleeve. I now live in pain 24 hours a day seven days a week without any breaks. No breaks other than my ribs when the spasms have twice twisted me so bad my ribs have broken. (But, as with the Closed Head Injury Accident that is another story.)

What most people take as normal everyday stuff is extremely difficult for me. Thinking is a challenge as is making decisions and choosing which way to go and what to wear or what to say or do next; very normal every day items become major hurdles and even mountains for me.

So when a company like Walkfit who apparently just does not care (at least I have not found anyone yet who does) it is people like me that always get hurt the worst. There is no one to fight for me so I plod along and do what I can just praying I will get the money back which was most literally STOLEN from my account. Contacting Visa Green dot helps sometimes but since they only take letters they were of no help to me in this case and thus my money is stolen like I see quite a few others here at this site and elsewhere around the web/world.

Sorry to be so long here but there is a lot involved in everyone's life; people are like icebergs because what we see is only a very small part of the entirety of their experiences and problems. Thank you for reading this (if you have) and Please if you do business with Walkfit call as soon as your order comes and cancel all future orders unless you actually like that crap. Warn others too so they don't get suckered in by what I have found to be scam and ###. It is sad really, I have found no redeeming features in any of my dealings with Walkfit. I thought I did with the one I talked to but it turns out he either lied or the one who told him to tell me those things lied...

Walkfit Platinum - scam

I ordered walkfit insole online after I saw it on TV. I got my order like 3-4 weeks after the ordering. I was charged 29.99 total, which is right. then next month, I saw my credit card is charged again of $44.85. i called walkfit, they say it is the joint formula that came in with the package. so I went back to try the ordering process, and realized that it...

Walkfit Platinum Terrible experience

I ordered 3 Walkfits in August and my order was missing one set. I have not been able to get the other set and it is now November. I can never talk with the same person twice nor can I get the same service center twice. It is very difficult to understand many or the people at the centers and I am always getting cut off and have to start over again with another call.

My account was charged the full amount for the 3 pairs along with outrageous shipping on all 3 pairs. They do not want to reimburse me for the missing pair and yet they have not sent it either.

They scammed me, too. I returned the entire box of "stuff" for a refund and have not heard back from them one month later. They made an unauthorized charge to my AMEX card the same day that they received my returned package. This is a criminal-acting group of scam artists and I will have to fight them, I suppose. They also charged an outrageous amount for their shipping charges to me (including "processing charges") and I did NOT request express shipping.

I had a similar experience, I ordered just the insoles and did not order anything else. My charge was $ 39.85
When the order came it had some sample bottles in it and I set them aside and do not use the additional lotions.
A month later a package arrives again from Walkfit and I call the company that I did not order any additional products. They told me that there was a letter in my package that explained that if I did not want anymore items I should have called them and cancell the order (that I have never ordered in the first place).
I told them that I did not authorize any charges to my VISA account but now the statement has come in there is a charge for $44.85. I called them and complained. they gave me an authorization number to mail it back (of course at my expense in order for me to have proof that I returned the bottles) and then they will give me a refund of $44.85.
THESE PRACTICES ARE DECEIPTFUL AND ONLY HURT CLIENTS LIKE ME WHO NEVER EVER WILL DEAL WITH THEM AGAIN AND MAKE THIS KNOW SOTHAT OTHERS WILL BE CAREFUL IN DEALING WITH THEM OR NOT.

Walkfit Platinum Inauthorized charge

On 10/06/08, I ordered a pair of Walk Fit via web site with regular shipping. Order confirmation promptly returned on 10/07 that order was quote " received and will be prcessed. Standard time for delivery is 3 to 4 weeks, although most in-stock items will be shippee within the next 7 to 10 business days. Rush orders will arrive within 5 days and that all ordes are shipped via US Postal service." I finally received order on 10/27/08 via USPS but they charged me Rush shipment fee of additional charge of $9.95. This makes shipping charge more costly than the product of which I would never agree to do. I called [protected] to inquire, the person who answered insisted that I requested for rush delivery. I told him that there were no detail provided in order confirmation; and even if I did order rush, the order did not arrive within 5 to 10 business days as confirmed on email. He said normal delivery was 21 days and 15 days for rush delivery. I stated that this was not acceptable and wanted to speak to his manager, he said there's no manager and no one that I could advance this complaint forward. I sent another email to document this complaint on 10/28 and have not heard back. The web site tries to sell you all kinds of product before you complete the transition, so be aware of buying stuff that you dont intend. The order confirmation to me never stated product purchased nor shipping mode which is highly unprofessional. Seems like this is the business practice that this company deploys against customers. This product used to be called Phase 4. Wonder why they changed the name ? Buyers beware !~!

Walkfit Platinum Deceptive order form

when you order from their website their order form has pre-filled out fields for additional product. You have to carefully scroll around and make sure they are all unchecked or you get the product.
They offer no order confirmation before they capture and charge your credit card, so you don't see that you have inadverantly order other stuff - due to their site automatically filling it out "yes".
they will refund the product price, but not S&H, which is about $15/item - a huge rip off for something coming by US postal service.

Walkfit Platinum Overcharged

I received my order, I was charged for rush delivery, which I didn't want. And it took 14 days to get here, some rush delivery. I was charged for the gel insoles, didn't order those. The total was $54.75 for an order I thought would cost $29.90. After being hung up on several times I finally spoke with someone. Even though I was put on hold several times, I made use of my time by writing this, they "said" they would refund the $24.85, we will see. And after all the B.S., they had the nerve to try and pressure, and I mean pressure me to buy anothher pair!

Walkfit Platinum Unauthorized charges

My wife ordered Walkfit and a few days after receiving the shoe inserts, which suck by the way, a bunch of supplements showed up that we did not order and $200.00 of crap on her credit card. We disputed the charges. Today we received a letter from Walkfit complaining they could not charge another $27 to card and if we don't pay they will turn it over to a collection agency. What scammers. I plan to report them the the Georgia and California Attorny General's offices, you should do the same if you deal with these people.

I purchased two pair of Walkfit insoles on their web site. I have a pair which work well and wanted additional pairs. When they arrived, included in the package were gel inserts, which I did not order and which were sent to me on approval. In addition the amounts on the invoice were all wrong. I sent the entire order back to them with instructions to refund my money. I paid $59.53 for the insoles including almost $24 for shipping (more than the ad stated would be the cost). It cost me over $17 to return the order via UPS, but I didn't expect them to pay for return postage.

I received confirmation via UPS that Walkfit received the returns and I call them to find out when I'd see my credit. I was told that it would appear in 7 to 10 days. It did.

The credit I received was about $2.50 less than I should have received, but I decided just to let it be because it would not have been worth the hassle to talk to India to get the right amount.

I read in another review that these insoles are available at Target, something I checked and found to be true. I don't remember having any problems when I ordered my original pair many years ago. I just will never order from them directly again.

It's a shame that they've chosen to sell a product which I found to work via such underhanded and dishonest means.

I ordered the product and was charged extra for S&H (which) I did not request. They took the money directly from my checking account. As a result, a check which I wrote a couple of days later bounced and although the check was honoured, my bank charged $34. When I complained, I was told that they would credit my account $15.00. Once I receive the credit, I will return the item (at my own expense) to get a refund of the item. I will lose money on the S&H because they won't eat that charge. Do not do business with Walkfit.

BBB needs to get involved and stop these crooks from ripping off consumers...true ripoff! Being charged for items you did not order. The worst part is calling a phone number for customer care and getting someone nmaed "peter" in India who reads a script and could care less about your problem...Very rude when I called when I tried to ask question they hung up...bad company...bad service...

Walkfit Platinum paid for 2 pairs and received only 1.

Back in June 24, 2008 I ordered 2 pairs of walkfit inserts. I received only 1. I called Customer Service, and to my surprised everytime I mentioned I wanted a credit they would hangup! After several times of calling I got to speak to someone. I was promised a form for me to fill out, -for requesting credit or the 2nd pair. This was to be sent by fax. I waited and waited, checked the fax machine to make sure it was working... and nothing. I called back, got more hangups. I sent emails. Finally I got someone on the phone. This time they said the form would be mailed. After a couple of wks of waiting for this form, still nothing! I called back and now they said it would take 8 to 10 weeks for the form to be mailed out! Unbelievable. The time has past, and now its Sept. and nothing. In the meantime, when the purchase was done they didn't waste anytime taking my money. I really recommend people not to deal with them, they are running a scam. Its not about the money anymore, I am mad and just feel taken advantage of.

Walkfit Platinum Service not good

I placed an order with this company...Walk Fit America. I ordered 2 pr. of orthotics. They "promptly" debited my bank account for over $59. The product was not as expected and I returned it within 2 weeks...I am still waiting on a refund. They keep telling me I will receive it within 3-3 business days each time I call. And the worst part is that you cannot understand a word! The customer service reps speak very broken English. I asked to talk to a manager and was told that I could not. Not exactly good customer service.

I received my order and when I looked at the order form, I was outraged that such a small package cost me $54.65 S&H + I rushed the order for another $9.95. I ordered the product online after seeing the show and When you order online they do not give you a breakdown of cost or an order no./confirmation that you ordered the product. I understood by the commercial that I was getting the extra soles for FREE but instead I was charged $14.95 ea. set. I also found out that they charge you shipping and handling on each pair of soles...I bought 3 prs so if you divide that into $54.65, I paid $14.95 per pair for S&H. I order online all the time and never get charged this much for even large, heavy items. Being in advertising and marketing I stated to them this was very bad business and during these times they need to come up with better ways to ship. My customer service guy also had broken english and I even stated to him I don't know where he was located overseas or state side that he needed to tell his boss that the website, TV commercial and their order form needs to be clear to the customer what they are getting and what they are paying for it. They told me they would credit my account $28.00 for the extra shipping cost and that pairs of the soles in the future would not be charged with a shipping charge since I would be a repeat customer. My card was charged this weekend for 2 bottles of Joint Support since I signed up for that and I told them I did not want it. He stated to me when it came in to not accept the delivery and they would refund my money. I usually check out the internet for complaints but did not this time. I wish I would have. I was so angry that I left everything boxed and have not tried the soles. Hope this helps someone in the future.
