Hydroxytone Complaint - Hydroxy Scam - Hydroxatone

Hydroxatone - Complaint
Review by PISSED IN FL on 2011-04-01
I got Scammed by "Hydroxy Cream" thought I was getting one trial cream for $7.95, they sent 2 of them, then the credit card bill had a $1.95 membership charge first, PLUS their was also 2 more $1.95 charges from SEM***800-475-1942 (ANOTHER CC SCAM see http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-800-475-1942/7 for hundreds of complaints on a monthly membership charge scam). Then there's the $138.00 charge for 2 creams (called and they told me it was buy one get a 2nd one for $7.95 LIE), and also had two more $1.50 charges for "ACM Beauty Advisors". She called both Hydroxy cream and this 800-475-1942 and they said they would refund. we'll see, meanwhile I have filled a complaint with both the Minnesota Attorney Generals Office the Florida Attorney Generls office, and the FEDS Consumer Protection Agency and sent a dispute letter to the CC Company.

They try and offer you magazines, free gas cards, Walmart cards, etc etc and then (SEM***800-475-1942)charge you monthly recurring membership fee's people scammed for hundreds of dollars, dbl billed, WARNING...WATCH YOUR CC STATEMENTS!!!

A free offer should never require a credit card number.

Thanks for warning others.

It wasn't advertised as FREE. The OP said they expected to pay $7.95. It's all of the other things that he failed to opt out of that is causing his heartburn. There's no scam here, only the OP failing to read through everything that he was agreeing to.
