DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! I ordered this sample product for my mother to try and have been unable to cancel since. The sample purchase hooks you into paying $300. The customer service *** told me I could not cancel and that I would be charged monthly until paid in full but assured me they would not continue after final payment! WRONG! They set me up on a whole new plan and have charged me again. I called to cancel again and received an email for my cancellation request and still owe $169.86 for no product. I have tried to cancel 3 times, but my card is still being charged. I have no idea how to stop this. PLEASE DO NOT BUY!!!Review from Sandy G

Crepe Erase didnt make any difference ARMT ALL for the month and 1/2 I faithfully tried it, 2xs a day. Dissatisfied, I packed up the the tubes, creams, jar with partial amounts still left. Shipped it back for my guaranteed refund- they ghosted me. No communication. They are dishonest in advertising, and S far as their guarantee. I will also be filing a detailed complaint to BBB in my state and theirs and with the ***.Review from Kimberly B

Rcvd product 8/20/24. Enclosed letter stated I would be charged monthly. I called to cancel, the whole thing. Cust Svc *** did not want me to cancel, he got mad, had an attitude and wouldnt cancel but kept trying to get me to postpone. I told no thank you-I wanted to cancel, if the product was good, Id be calling to reorder. The *** still resisted and didnt want to cancel, I hung up called back got someone who was supposed to be a manager. I told him I wanted to cancel, he also did not want me to cancel. Desperate? So I had to convince this guy to cancel, which he did but there is no confirming confirmation that it really was canceled. This is very suspicious behavior. The customer service call center I verified is in the *********** per them. I was told there is No connection to the *** only them. Here is the parent company address: *******************************************. 90245-5654. This is what I found after digging on the internet. If I get charged next month I will be LIVID!Guthy-Renker, LLC Response

Dear ********,
Thank you for your review. We appreciate the time you have taken to let us know about your experience. Our records reflect that you enrolled online 8/10/2024 for automatic shipments with the purchase of a discounted 30-day introductory kit.
We regret to learn that you found the cancellation process difficult. Rest assured your account was cancelled by the first ******** service agent you spoke with on 8/20/24 and confirmed during your additional calls that day and the following. An automatic cancellation confirmation email is sent by the system to the email address on file. After reviewing your account, we see that that address differs from the one included with your review. We apologize if that was not received initially. Another email confirming your cancellation was sent per your request on 8/22.
We do want to ensure members are aware of all of their options and benefits available with our flexible membership program, as auto-delivery is a convenient and affordable way to receive the products; additionally, we want to ensure that ********s are able to clarify any questions at the time cancellation is processed. We appreciate your feedback about your experience, as we strive to provide only the highest quality products and service.
Sincerely,
****** *.

************************ charged me twice a month for Perricone products that I did not order or receive. I caution you from doing busy with this company because they are a scam! And when I contacted them to work it out they were not responsive. Be warned!Guthy-Renker, LLC Response

Dear ******,
Thank you for your review. We appreciate the time you have taken to let us know about your experience.
Our records reflect that you enrolled for automatic replenishment shipments online with the purchase of two Perricone Cold Plasma Sub-D **** & Neck Deluxe 30-day introductory kits. The initial purchase was 4/16/24; the second on 5/11/24. Each of these included a subscription for full-size replenishment kits,the first to ship approximately one month after your initial order. Information regarding the automatic shipments is provided several places online before any personal information is entered.
The first replenishment kits were shipped on 5/18 and 6/13 as scheduled and per **** tracking delivered 5/28 and 6/20, respectively. The cost of each full-size kit was split into 3 installments to be billed over 31-day billing cycles. Due to the two subscriptions (and installments scheduled separately for each replenishment)the results were two different payments billed each month. When you contacted customer service on 8/15 your account was cancelled and the remaining balance due was cleared for the shipment (a 3rd replenishment kit) that was still in transit. Return instructions were provided.
Although your account does not reflect any returns received to present date as a goodwill gesture and an exception to our advertised 60-day Money Back Guarantee a refund has been issued for the payment received for the August shipment. Please allow 3-5 business days for the refund to post. Your account remains closed with nothing further to be shipped or charged.
Sincerely,
****** *.

Dear *******,
Thank you for your review. We appreciate the time you have taken to let us know about your experience.
When you cancelled your Kind Science subscription 5/30 that stopped any additional shipments but cancelling the account does not cancel any remaining balance due for an order already received. It will continue to bill until paid in full or is returned for credit within the 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee.
Our records reflect that when you placed your initial order online 4/23/24 you purchased a full-size 90-day introductory kit with the total cost split into three monthly payments. The first payment was charged when the order was sent, the 2nd on 5/24. When you contacted customer service to cancel, information was provided regarding the full cost of your order and the payments. We apologize if you found the offer or explanation unclear in any way.
As no returns were received the final payment was billed on 6/23/24. At that time your order was paid in full.
Your Kind Science account remains closed, with nothing further to be shipped or billed.
Sincerely,
****************

Ordered a trial, tried to cancel and was not allowed. I never got an email or any communication from the company that a shipment was coming allowing me the opportunity to stop shipment and cancel then. I was never even clear that a third party was involved and I had no customer service information, no order number, and no one to call. After calling the company of the actual product I ordered, they determined I had ordered through GR and had all their contact info. GR now wants ME to pay for return shipping in order not to be charged the 3 payments of $99.95 and have no way of either sending a pre-paid shipping label OR reimbursing the shipping charge. Frustrating customer experience all around.Guthy-Renker, LLC Response

Dear ****,
Thank you for your review. We appreciate the time you have taken to let us know about your experience.
Our records reflect that you contact our customer service team on 4/26 with questions about your initial Perricone Cold Plasma Sub-D order which you had just received. Your questions were answered, and you were informed of the next ship date. When you requested to cancel an offer to postpone future shipments (since you had not yet tried the products) was accepted instead of cancelling. Information was provided regarding the 60-day Money Back Guarantee. The next shipment was postponed until 6/22 with your acknowledgement.
Your full-size replenishment shipment was sent as scheduled on 6/22. The subscription was cancelled on 6/28 per your request. An offer to waive the remaining balance instead of returning the shipment was made but declined. Return instructions were provided.
As a goodwill gesture the remaining balance has now been cleared although your account does not reflect any returns received to present date.
Your Perricone Cold Plasma Sub-D account remains closed with nothing further to be shipped or billed.
We appreciate your feedback, as we strive to provide the highest quality products and service.
Sincerely,

Unauthorized pull from account, they have a hidden default membership with auto deducted that is not revealed. Its a shame that meaningful Beauty may be a good product but because their site apparently switched to this ************************* scam outfit at checkout I will never try it again. Word of mouth will not be good. Calling CS is a joke. Employee ************ ignored my concerns, just went by script. was ignored about getting a refund, rather a supervisor will contact me in a few days- Hmmm? I want all my money back right away, I will return the samples I purchased, I dont want whatever products are apparently being sent to me. I take the time to make a return, spend 1 1/2 hours calling CS, now time to write a review. I demand they stop charging my account, and this company be evaluated for faulty, defaulted, secretive business that has nothing to do with the products. All because I wanted to get samples of MB, my CC information has been violated, and this could be a bigger fraudulent issue than its worth- I pray that BBB steps in to protect consumers.Review from Michael B
