Ordering Wrinkle Creams
One common complaint I've read about ordering some acne treatments and weight-loss supplements is the automated ordering process. The customer opts for a (usually) 14-day free trial; just pay shipping and handling. Websites may or may not explain that, unless the account is cancelled within that 14 days, the product will automatically ship at full price.
They also don't mention that the 14 days starts from the moment the order is placed. And full price is never cheap.
Although more common with other products, some wrinkle
creams pull the same tricks. I know. They got me a couple of years
ago.

Now, don't get me wrong. It's a perfectly good product. Two steps, applied right after cleansing, you can actually feel the skin on your face firm up.
Or maybe it's just an astringent in the mix, tightening up the pores. But, I could feel it work - the few times I remembered to use it. All in all, I was rather impressed ... until I got the charges on my card.
Then, I was simply angry.
When I contacted customer service, they insisted that I had agreed to all of their fine print when I place my trial order. Nope; sure didn't. In fact, I will go to my grave confident that there was zero warning of the automatic shipping policy.
Happily, they did refund the charges quite quickly. And I learned a valuable lesson. Ain't no such thing as free.
