      Would give zero stars if I could. Apparently if you ever cancel a subscription with this company, you are never allowed to join that program again. Maybe that should be noted somewhere so I dont waste my time signing up for the other programs that work along side the subscription thats apparently one and done. Shame on you for false advertisement about wanting to help people.

      Hey there! I am so sorry for the unexpected charges! The MetaBoost and One and Done programs both involve a one-time fee of $29. It looks like you also opted for the lifetime access of our Accelerated ************************ membership. This is something that is voluntary and had to be selected on the following page after you purchased One and Done or MetaBoost. We understand that in some cases a customer may miss that, but I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. I see that you have received a refund for both of the products that you purchased. We're always sad to see our customers go but when they have made their decision we always try to honor it! I hope you accept this apology from all of us!

      Ive been on metaboost connection for 2 months. The first week I lost 6 lbs but after the first week Ive been up n down the same 3 lbs. it says this way of eating is supposed to combat that problem but it hasnt worked for me at all. Im very disappointed. So dont do this way of eating if you want to lose weight because it doesnt work even doing everything they ask. Theres also not enough info on how to combine foods and how much to eat each day. I was told to repeat the 10 days till you lose all your weight but no info for after. Doesnt matter anyways cause I cant lose on it.

As well as more information on the program to better help you on this journey. If you are still not satisfied with the program, we are always willing to honor a refund request within our 60-day money-back guarantee period.

      Video goes on and on repeats itself too many times before getting to the point. She says and its stated its a short presentation But think about it: how do you define short? Its not short! The 30 second quiz is pretty generic. The superfoods arent uniqueavocado, ginger, cinnamon, flax seeds, etc. are foods most people already know about. Ordering confusing, so Im out!

      The concept is good and a lot of good info on eating. However the $29 quickly turns into $450 and more. Takes forever for the initial info video to complete and ordering is very confusing. Info is not easy to manage into an organized manner. Tried to order one megagreen and was charged for 6. Took 3 operators to get it figured out. They were all nice and willing to help and we did get it refunded. I was really eager to try this but the support line does not instill confidence as they are hard to understand and continually checking with their supervisors for advise. Support email said I didn't have an account.....hmmmm. I was charged but don't have an account? I was not impressed with any of the support options. Exercises that are free are nothing I haven't seen before. Sorry Mere. Love the concept and it is evident a lot of work went into the program but support process shut the door for me. As well as the constant additional costs. Seems a bit scammy.

      Hey there! So sorry for the unexpected charges! The MetaBoost and One and Done programs both involve a one-time fee of $29. It looks like you also opted for the 7-day free trial of our Accelerated Body ******************* membership. This is something that is voluntary and had to be selected on the following page after you purchased One and Done or MetaBoost. The membership is billed at $49 per month starting when your free trial period is over. We understand that in some cases a customer may miss that, but I've taken it upon myself to honor our 60-day money-back guarantee period. That's not all, given the circumstance we have doubled that in your case and extended it to 120 days (twice the normal amount). We are willing to help in any other way that is possible. We know this isn't much but we've also given you lifetime access to a couple of our amazing programs!

      Low cost, sort of, for a week; entraps buyer.This demands physically much more than I bargained for. Did not realize a huge part of this program involved diet.

      Hey there! So sorry for the confusion caused! The Back Renewal System program involves a one-time fee of $29. What you maybe be referring to is our Accelerated Back and Body ******************* membership. This has a 7-day free trial and is something that is voluntary and had to be selected on the following page after you purchased the Back Renewal System. The membership is billed at $49 per month starting when your free trial period is over. The Accelerated Back and Body ******************* membership provides monthly workouts, monthly meal plans, Zoom coaching calls, and access to a private community. Not to worry, you canceled before that period ended and only have access to, our Back Renewal System doesn't require any diet, just exercise!

      Im livid! Im very careful when I pay for things online. I dont even recall what I initially ordered from Coach Mere, but a year later, Im noticing that Im being charged 65.99 CAD every single month from this company. I called my CC company, because I didnt even know what SVTrain was, and they gave me a phone number. I called and was told that I had subscribed and that they could only reimburse me for 4 months. Shame on me for not scrutinized my statement better before, but SHAME on this company for running such a ****. I got absolutely nothing from them for all this money and I see that Im not alone. Can anything be done about this company? Clearly, theres an issue here!

      Their response is **. I never subscribed for any ongoing charges as many other complaints indicate. This company gives the same ** response to everyone. How are they getting away with this! What is the BBB for? Just because a company says I did something doesnt make it true. Can they prove it? This is shameful!

      If I could choose "0" I would have chose that instead. I understood that I would have an opportunity to check out the program then I could decide to continue. What I didn't know because it was not clear is that after 7 days they will charge your account $49 a month. I was just looking at my checking account and called to cancel this scam account. They told me that they have charged me $49 over the 4 months. When I asked if I could get any of my money back they said I could purchase a one-time subscription for $99. Don't fall prey to this company. They do not try to help people lose weight. They just take your money!! I feel taken advantage of. Also, if you call customer service, the background noise is so loud that I had to keep repeating my information. Needless to say I was very unhappy with the whole process. DON'T get mixed up with this scam.

      Good day! I apologize for the unexpected fees. There is a $29 one-time cost for both the MetaBoost and One and Done programs. It appears that you choose to sign up for our Accelerated Body *******************'s free 7-day trial as well. After ordering One and Done or MetaBoost, you had to select this option on the following page. It is an elective. After the free trial period, the membership is invoiced at $49 per month. We are always eager to honor a refund request within our 60-day money-back guarantee period because we are aware that occasionally a customer may miss that. I note that we extended it to 120 days in your situation by doubling that (twice the usual quantity). Since we have reached the limit of our reimbursement ability, we are willing to assist in any other way that is practicable.
