The Simple Way To An A Complaint - What A Scam! - The Simple Way To An A Program
The Simple Way To An A Program - Complaint
I ordered this program, got bullied into purchasing two, total came to over $500, called to return, was offered a discount and advised to call back the next day with decision, called back couldn't get thru that day, called the next day and was advised it was too late to return it and that it was also too late for the discount I was offered. I was never told this program cost so much or I would not have ordered it. I am struggling to care for 4 children on a single income. I only wanted to provide my children with something that would help them become better students. Now I have to try to provide a roof over their heads because now I can't return this non effective program and my account is being deducted money I don't have. All I wanted was to help my kids out. I feel like I was taken Advantage of and the return policy is such a SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!! When you call to return it, you are then pressured into taking more time to make sure you don't want a better future for your kids.
This program is way over priced. I'm sure corporate doesn't have to worry about feeding their kids on a regular income of less than $30,000 a yr. I am so stressed right now I don't know what to do. I mean is this legal?????

For that kind of money you could have gotten some kind of personal tutor and maybe some classes at a place like Sylvan Learning Center.
While I do have sympathy for you and admire your intentions, you aren't the first Mom to raise four kids on that income. Some do it on less.
Good luck. (VH)

You weren't bullied, you didn't have the backbone to say no.

It sounds like the discount was offered to you after you ordered two of them, then called to cancel, is that correct? It that's the way it went, then it sounds like it's a common practice of theirs to get people to buy more. Stating that you can think about it, then call back the next day with your decision, is a way to make people think they wouldn't get ripped off because they don't seem to be 'pushy', when infact they really are ripping people off. Keep record of your contacts with them, and dispute it through your credit card company...they will put a hold on that dollar amount while they investigate it, and you will not be required to pay that amount on your credit card while the refund is pending and until the credit card company makes a decision. At this point, I'd say that is your next best step.
