I joined Vemma through the GPS Team less than 30 days ago. My mentor Heidi Craig talked me into becoming a Silver affilate. I had to pay $544.63. I joined when my husband was out of town and thought he would be happy that I took the initiative to go back to working so we could get out debt faster. He was totally angry when we sat down and I told him what I had done. He said he did not want me to work as hard as I would have to work in order to be successful in that type of business. We are both retired now. So he advised me to ask for my money to be credited back to my credit card and not do the business. If I wanted to keep the order for the product that was up to me. That was another $170. As I trained I started to see all the fees I would have to pay and all the money I would have to put out. I have spoke on the phone to Heidi several times and also sent her emails to refund my credit card. She just ignores me and she is the one who told me I could get the money returned within the 30 day trial period. I also emailed affiliate support on 2 ocassions without any answer from them.
Next I will speak to my Visa card company and enter a dispute tomorrow.
Several months ago, I received a postcard mailing touting the ability to make money as an independent distributor of products for weight loss and nutrition. Since I'm interested in those kinds of products, and since I couldn't find anything negative on the web at the time, I paid $9.95 for postage and handling for a "kit" which cost $39.95. I was under the impression I was also going to receive a few samples to see what I would actually be representing.
The "kit" turned out to be a DVD containing the same information on the Vemma website, a booklet, and a description of only two products. Since it was so sketchy, I kept assuming I was getting a few samples, and I kept waiting for them.
When I got billed for the $39.95, I called my recruiter, Mike Wei, and advised him I never received the kit. Imagine my surprise when I found what I had received WAS the kit! So of course I wanted my money back, as per their promise.
I sent the DVD back on 10/16/14 via USPS Insured, because I fully expected them to say they never received it. According to the USPS, it was received on 10/21. It's now 11/16...and I'm still waiting for my refund.
Of course, now I'm finding all sorts of negative reports about this group. I guess the moral of the story is, do your "due diligence," and if you can't find anything about the company, put the offer aside for a couple of months, and then do a new search. Whatever you do...DON'T hook up with Vemma, Kaption Media, or Michael Wei!
