It is a streaming site with free trail. The day you sign up they TAKE 34.90 off of your card, without any notification it will be charged. It is marketed as a free trail

I signed up for Albert and got a subscription due to being low on money and needing some, I did however not use their app for this and even canceled my subscription soon after creating it. A few weeks go by and I noticed they had automatically taken ¢40-¢40 there so I check the app and they had taken a total of $23 over several weeks without knowledge, so I try to cancel my account again but it saids I need to remove all the money from it first that's their only requirement, however they will never let your account hit $0 even though it's already frustrating enough trying to transfer money with them, so I turned off the "auto investing" feature on the app and was waiting for the money to transfer to my main bank account. I checked my bank account today as of 12/1/23 and I have a charge for $43 from Albert Financial, I go and look and what would you know they put money automatically back in the Albert account because it finally hit zero and they didn't want me to cancel, so even though I already canceled my subscription with them once nothing happened and I've turned off auto investing at least 3 times now and yet they still take money out of my account without warning, I contacted their customer support multiple times and Everytime I was told the same exact thing got to transfer all your money first, so this morning I went to my bank to dispute the charges and put a block on Albert from taking anymore money, they are practicing shady business practices and doing everything they can to make sure they can still get money out of you that you didnt agree too.

My ears were ringing and I wanted a natural product to help. I searched online and noticed a "Shark Tank" approved company and assumed they were legitimate. Once I was online to order the product, the process was so fast I could not read the information, I decided to immediately cancel my order as I realized the ad was photoshopped after seeing this warning on Google.

I called customer service and was screamed at by a woman who said she would decide who gets a refund. I mailed back the bottle I received with a letter asking them to cancel as they are saying this is a forever subscription with a 30-day money-back guarantee on the photoshopped ad. Instead, they mailed me yet another bottle and charged me another $129. I immediately called my credit card company to cancel my order(s) and am having the company investigated by Google and the USPS for fraud. I noticed this company changes names, product scams, and internet addresses often. If you hold the cursor over the email (As I just learned to do), it belongs to someone in Hong Kong

look out from EARTHmed from Dever Co. or PO Box 90129 Lakeland Florida or [email protected].

Please shop local rather than get caught up in a terrible subscription scam like this nightmare!

Thought I would try a one month supply for 440. I received six month supply and was charged $240. One month later they are charging my for another six month supply for $240.

If you buy anything from this catalog they will enroll you in their VIP program--- and continue to take 15.00 a month until you figure out they are doing it. My husband died last year- I wasn't checking my bank account regularly and they took 15 dollars for 2 years without my consent. I called- they said they will take me off the VIP program (which includes nothing, by the way). They emailed me the un-subscription and I emailed back saying I will report them and I want all of my money returned. They said they can only refund the last 6 months.

I NEVER signed up for a VIP program and I would never accept any reoccurring charges for anything. When I did some research it seems this company has been doing this for many years. I hope this will help someone else.

This phone number 704-219-9855 called me by an Indian claiming I subscibed rebel TV last year and stated I owed him $200. I said I didn't subscibed, I didn't receive anything and I will report him to Scam Tracker. I hung up on him and blocked his number

Offered free legal sale documents on line. Charged $1.99 for document. Then charged $39.99 for monthly services not requested or approved. Total Fraud!

I signed on to my CVS website to renew a prescription. Immediately a screen popped up, saying "Take a survey, and get a free gift". I took the survey -- very brief -- how do you like CVS? and then was shown an array of gifts that would be "free, with only shipping and handling charge". I chose an electric massager, with S&H about $7. I received it yesterday, and it works well. But this morning I saw a charge for $67.43 on my VISA, with the name "THEQUALITYGREATDEALSGA" and phone number 844-960-7543. I called that number, and the lady said that in the "terms and conditions" I had agreed to a monthly charge of $67.43 for access to some service. Like most online shoppers, I hadn't read the fine print in the terms and conditions. I demanded to be disenrolled from their service, and demanded a refund. After much arguing, she agreed to disenroll me, and refund me about $26.

I reported it to CVS, and they said it was a scam that somehow had infected their website. They'll be investigating it, but suggested that I also report it to you.

This company tried take $19.99 out of my account after I canceled the subscription. Luckily I have my account locked for scammers like this. Of course I sent them a message from their website, informing them of what happened only for them to contact me after two more attempts to withdraw my money from account, to inform me that their system attempts to collect the subscription price twice more before cancelling automatically. That my subscription is truly and they are sorry. This company is not to be trusted.

There was/is an add on Facebook, offering a chance to win a Coleman tent. There is a short survey and a small charge for shipping and handling. Buried in the terms and conditions there is a hidden monthly subscription agreement. The charge showed up on my statement as “durableextremelectro” with a contact number of 8556910219. I called the number and cancelled my subscription. After informing the 3rd party representative I planned to contact the authorities they agreed to refund half of what they charged my card and offered me $250 in gift cards if I agreed not to pursue legal action. I declined the gift cards.

I received an email that said they were charging my account for $327 for a GS toolkit pro and that I should contact them within 12 hours if I wanted to cancel this for a complete refund. There was no company name or website on the email.

I foolishly clicked (google) on a "free trial" offer for skin care products. The offer stated that I only pay for shipping. I received the offer in a few days and just two days later I see in my bank account a charge for $129.49. I immediately called the number provided and of course got a woman of whom I could barely understand telling me that I have an account with them. I told her I was not interested and to refund my money. She said she could only refund half the amount. I explained that I had already paid for the shipping for the trial and that I do not want half but a full refund for the added charge. Not really knowing what she was saying, I asked to speak to her supervisor. I was told that person was not available. Apparently, I agreed somewhere along the way to have a subscription for this product of which I hardly tried before being charged the full amount. I then find the same product on Amazon for under $40! I will be calling again today to cancel this subscription and so far my credit union has not put this through on my account (debit card) yet. Hopefully I can stop the transaction and I will then cancel my Debit card and pay for a new card. Big lesson learned. "Free Trial" means a subscription!

I was unknowingly signed up for a regular subscription of 5 bottles at $199.88 about every 6 weeks! I would caution you to purchase this item in a "walk in" store and NOT online. There is no legitimate way to contact the company. That in itself makes me question their business ethics.

I was billed $19.99 x 3 in Canadian funds Total of $ 77.88 on February 13th, for a service I NEVER subscribed to, or authorized.

I added a google play app on my phone. I did not subscribe or purchase anything on the app. I was not interested in whatever they were selling, so I deleted the app immediately. The somehow used my credit card that was on file with google play, to charge me $19.99 monthly for a service I did not authorize.

This is the 2nd time they charged my credit card. I emailed the company numerous times, and no response
