ProActiv Solutions Reviews

ripped off
I was lured into the thought by all the infomercials that this proativ solutions was just the right thing to get? and that it would help and that they were legitamite and a good company.. boy was I wrong. they are crooks, and just want your money, and treat you like a dummy, thinking they have one over on you.

They try and talk a good game, into making you think you need this stuff. and have all their staff trained on the phones to tell you just the right thing. It did not work for my son, we only used a bit of it, hardly any of it, we pondered on sending it back, we had been to a dermatologist, and I won't even into it in telling all of you what this Dr . had to say about these products. It actually made his face worse, and even scarred his face.

I have been waiting 5 weeks since upon my returning the products. only to find out that I will not be refunded our money, which has been sucked down the tubes by these people. they say of course, we sent you an email, which is a bold face lie. if they are such a big famous company, why are they not standing by their name and give money back to a consumer? liers, cheaters, crooks, I can think of a whole lot of other names, I'd like to call these people. and they have those 2 pictures of those so called women drs. on their websites, I'd like a private meeting with the two of them to tell them what I really think of them and their company.

unauthorized additional order & billing
I ordered a 60 day supply under their promotion "1 million bottle giveaway". When I called to order the 60 day free trial, they told me that it was “risk free”, not “free. They said they would refund my money if I notified them that I was dissatisfied within 60 days.
They told me that they had to send a 30 day supply initially and would follow up with another 90 day supply. I told them that this was NOT acceptable. I wanted to try their 60 day “risk free” trial. They said that I could change the order after the initial 30 day supply arrived that way I would be able to get the full 60 day trial. I accepted the 30 day supply and later called to order the additional 30 day trial. They said I would be charged for postage. I said that this was not acceptable because their promotion stated the 60 day trial was supposed to include postage. The proactive rep then said that I could request a refund of the postage if I’m not satisfied and ask for a refund for the 60 day trial. Instead of sending the additional 30 day supply as ordered, they sent an additional 90 day supply instead. When I called to tell them they made a mistake and I only ordered an additional 30 days for the 60 day trial, they said I could use it for 30 days and return it for a full refund when they receive the remaining product. They also extended the free trial date to 23 April at that time. I called again at the end of March and told them that I never ordered the 90 day supply, only the 60 day supply and was unsatisfied with the product and demanded my money back for the 60 day trial. The customer service specialist then told me that she would agree to just charge me $19.95 for the additional 60 day supply which they oversent and would refund the previous charge so I would get the 60 day trial portion free. I agreed to this. Two weeks later, on 25 April, I called proactive again and this time I was told another story. This time she said that my 60 day risk free trial had now expired and I don’t even have the option of sending the product back to receive a refund of the 60 day trial. Every time I spoke to someone at proactive they lied to me told me a differentr story about their offer. They also improperly charged my credit card for 60 days worth of a product that they sent without my ordering it and refused to refund my money for the first 60 days under their satisfaction guarantee.

Decietpful Practices
I placed on online order on 11/4/09 for the 5-piece Deluxe kit for $29.95. The order descripton stated that I would be sent another kit in 30-days, and my credit card would be charged $29.95 plus s&h ($9.99). My card was billed in Dec. but I received no product. I called customer service the beginning of January inquiring about my order. They said I had signed up for "installment" payments - meaning the one 5-piece kit cost (Nov. & Dec.'s payments) $60 total. Are you kidding? I would NEVER buy these little bottles for $60 unless they contained liquid gold...trust me ladies - this is definately NOT the end-all acne solution! Anyway, I talked with a manager (who was arrogant & flippant-Armondo) and demanded my account be cancelled immediately. I called back 30-minutes later to request a confirmation letter of my acct cancellation and the customer service rep (Jerry) informed me that the manager had put my acct on hold for 6-months at which time I would start being charged again. Jerry is sending the cancellation letter, as well as deleted my CC info from their system. I also got my CC company involved to recoup the January payment that had just been charged. They unauthorized the charge, and participated in a 3-way conference call to explain this to Proactiv customer service. I have NEVER felt so scammed in my life. Horrible company for screwing with people.

Erroneous billing, deceptive sales tactics
12/2006 I ordered a 'sample' kit from Proactiv
2/2007 I received another kit and called to ask why they sent it. They said when you order the
sample you are automatically signed up for repeat shipments. I told them I would keep this one
because I should have read the fine print, but I do not like the products, so
do not send any more, they said ok.
7/2007 They sent another kit. I refused delivery, called the company, they said no problem, they will refund my money.
by September I finally had my refund, so I thought everything was fine. Then 12/4/2007 - received bill from ProActiv for $31.85. That amount doesn't even match the amount that was billed for the returned product -- I don't know where this number came from.
Bottom line, it is now 5/15/2008 and I am still battling this company. They say I owe them $31.85. I have called repeatly, and sent them a letter. I have now received 3 notices from a collection agency, who I have also called multiple times and sent them a letter, enclosing the original letter sent to ProActiv. Will this never end? Will I never be rid of ProActiv?

Deceptive sales tactics!
I was a satisfied customer of ProActiv acne cleansing system for years, beginning in the mid-90s (before they used celebrity endorsements). My mother got the account for me & I used the product for many years; we terminated the account only due to accumulating a stockpile of the product. Cut to this summer, when I opened an account with ProActiv for myself. There was an "Introductory Offer" of the VitaPower vitamins for $3.99, and I accepted it. There was no information about how much the product was after the "introductory offer." When I received the product, it came with absolutely no paperwork - no receipt, no product information, no contact information, no way to accept or decline an actual subscription to the product. Due to this lack of information, it was unclear that VitaPower was a separate entity from ProActiv. The fact that there was no product information, receipt or any other paperwork gave me pause, and I did not want to continue with the product (I didn't try it; I just didn't see fit to add more vitamins to my regimen). I should have taken steps to contact the company, but there wasn't any contact info provided with the product, and I promptly forgot about it... until a month later when $33.99 was taken out of my account by the VitaPower company. I did then contact ProActiv for VitaPower's customer service number and promptly called to cancel my unwanted and unsolicited subscription, only to get a very sarcastic attitude from the agent when I declined to listen to his lecture about canceling without trying the product, and trying to keep me from canceling the account. I called back again to clarify about the lack of information about the product & subscription status with the shipment of the product & how it was a suspicious & deceptive tactic, to no avail. I then expressed my displeasure re: the experience with VitaPower and the (lack of)information given when signing up for the "introductory offer" with ProActiv, whereupon I learned that VitaPower is part of the Guthy-Renker "Family" (umbrella company) and, in short, did not care about my negative experience. I have subsequently canceled my account with ProActiv. It's shocking to me that they would be so unconcerned with complaints regarding these dodgy & cheap sales tactics, given that they actually have competition these days. I am now boycotting all Guthy-Renker products due to my dismay about their deceptive sales tactics & unsatisfactory customer service.
