I was one of the many who ordered the "FREE" Trial offer of the ascia berry which although it was a pain I was at least able to work out. Somehow during this transaction I was directed to another website for a colon cleansing product however it was not the colon cleansing product that was advertised along with the ascia berry diet. It happened so quickly that at the time I was unaware that they did not go together until I began trying to cancel any further product as well as any transactions to my account for which I never authorized in the first place. The problem is the phone number is not in service and there is no address to send a product back and if you go to the website to try anything but ordering you will be kicked off the site or the computer you are on will just run. Stuck until you shut it down. They do exist when it comes to taking un authorized charges from your account though. I recieved a call from my bank on March 6 informing me that Panalabs had attempted to withdrawl some seventy-nine dollars from my account on March 2 and did I authorize this. Of course I did not but luckily I did not have enough in that account to cover the withdrawl but it caused an overdraft fee to come out and other transactions then to bounce and more overdraft fees. This is so wrong and something should be able to be done about this. I put a stop on my card so that they will not be able to take another withdrawl if they try but the loss of money and the inconveniance is just so wrong. The greatest concern I have at this point is WHAT HAVE I TAKEN? I want to know what I put in my body. How can I find this out? I hope something is done to stop this before someone gets ill or worse.

Thankyou

Noticed that instead of shipping and handling charges for 2 products from panalabs.com I was charged 69.95 and 79.92. These charges were not authorized.

I responded to an online ad for weight loss product - Acai-aSlim - after reading that this product - a berry - approved by Oprah - was excellent for weight loss. The ad explained that I would pay $4.95 for shipping and handling only - for this product. I unfortunately filled out my credit card info to order the product and pay for the S&H - The product came in the mail, and I discovered today - on my bank statement - that I was charged for the $4.95 AND $79.95 as well!!! I never approved of this latter charge, and feel helpless to null and void this charge. What should I do??? This has never happened to me!

Just like all the other complaints. I wanted to try a "free trial" on Bromalite & Acai Slim to see how well they work . Before I even had a chance to try them my bank account was charged $79.95 & $69.95 on Christmas Eve & Christmas Day. When trying to contact the companies...of course...constant busy signal. I've had to cancel my debt card to avoid any additional charges & file a dispute with my bank in hopes of getting my money back...since I did not authorize the transaction. I've learned a lesson...nothing is "free".

Wow !! had I known you guys existed I would have consulted...I'm very nervous. I got caught such as everybody who wanted to try Bromalite, Acaislim and got caught in the loop for the fitfactory package. As soon as I received the product I tried going on the panalabs.com website and all these complaints popped up. How people would get charged without knowing, how it was difficult to cancel and to get a live person on the other end. I've personally cancelled my credit card as of today and ordered a new one so as not to get other charges billed to my account if I cannot get a hold of these crooks !!! Hopefully these messages will get around quickly so that other people do not fall into this trap !! GOOD LUCK everybody
