Hi,
I haven't had time to go through all the posts on this board to see if the climate is negative or positive toward Kevin's book. My personal experience with the Natural Cures Book was a nightmare.
When I called the salesperson kept trying to sell me extra things and I kept saying no, but those things and more showed up on my card. When I called the numbers on my card statement I couldn't get through to anyone...it even said, if you are calling about a charge on your credit card... I looked up the companies online for alternate numbers and addresses. When I finally did talk to someone they argued that I agreed to the charges and then begrudgingly took the charges off. It took many calls to different companies. Many hours. I emailed the Natural Cures website and didn't receive a repsonse.
I emailed about the charges and that I could not log into the site.
That was last January.
I finally received a response about a log-on this month (August)
I searched for the other companies online and saw dozens of posts on forums regarding the unauthorized charges after ordering the Natural Chures book.
I looked up Kevin through his website domain name registration and used the fax number. It might be private now... as I told them where I found the fax number. Basically I let him have it. I told him that I was totally disgusted and I hadn't received the book yet but it was going back to them unopened and I wanted a full refund. At that point I wanted nothing to do with them and I threatened to file fraud charges. I told him about all the posts I had read and that I knew he had gone to jail for credit card fraud in the past. You have to understand that by this point I was irate. I told him that THEY were out to get him because he was using less than ethical business practices, not because of his book.
One of his assitants responded to the fax by email. I included my email address in my fax. She said a full refund would be on my card and to keep the book.
Then a month later, the same thing happened... charges on my credit card from these "partner" companies... more phone calls, more time wasted, and finally 2 months later they stopped charging my card.
I did keep the book after their fax and I did read sections of the book and I feel it is nothing that isn't discussed here and other good holistic health websites on a daily basis. All through the book it repeatedly says to go to the website, which is members only and which I could not access even though I supposedly had a membership. I haven't tried since the first week. I don't care to.
This was just my experience and after reasearch I found similar experiences.
I wanted to share. If you buy the book, watch your credit card for other charges.
