I'm filing a complaint with the company Healthy Directions. Although I do not recall, according to this company I submitted a trial order for a health supplement on March 5, 2025 for $5.99. A charge I did not notice or respond to. Their policy is to charge full price after 30 days if not cancelled before. On February 27th I was evicted from my apartment making it hard for me to believe that I ordered this to be sent to this address and that my information must have been sold to Healthy Directions. However on April 4, 2025 $82.62 was debited from my bank account. I immediately called the number that my bank supplied and after being told the package had been delivered and left outside of the apartment door of this multi unit building that has not only over 150 tenants and their guest coming and going, an active building staff of more than 10 people at any given time, contractors, and a high level of transients who trespass on the property daily. I was told I would not be able to receive a refund because according to the representative there was a screenshot of the package left in front of the apartment. Of which they have not provided to me. After contacting the building management and being told there was no items delivered to them by any neighbors and nothing delivered to them by a carrier. I made an official address change in hopes the package would somehow make it's way to me by **** but to no avail. I called back and was denied a refund again by Healthy Directions but was told to contact the carrier service *** Logistix because they were the responsible party for loosing this package. I emailed ACI Logistix with the tracking number provided but was told in response that the number given was invalid. I sent 3 emails with the request for information about the package but was told the same that a valid tracking number would be necessary to provide any information about a delivery. HD will not provide information to help locate the missing items and won't refund me.Business Response

On February 26/2025 Healthy *************** a ****************** charged $82.80 to my **** Credit Card for a bottle of Suplements, that I had never ordered. The reason why they had my CC on file was because they advertised an offer for a trial size of a supplement, and you had to pay only the S&H. When I tried the supplement, it didnt work for me so I didnt order it. But they went ahead and send it to me. So the day I received itI called the **************** line, and some lady who took my call, told me just return it and we will credit back to your CC which they never did, I had call them several timesand I cant get a person on the phone.Business Response

Dear ******* *****,
We are sorry for the frustration you have experienced with your trial order for the OcuGold.
We show the original trial order was submitted online 3/11/25. As part of the trial offer terms, you agreed to an 18-day trial period from the date of order submission. After the trial period, we would automatically ship the 30-day supply for the OcuGold and every 30 days thereafter, unless the subscription was cancelled.
The trial order was submitted 11/10/25 and shipped right away. The 18-day trial period ended without notice to cancel, so the 30-day supply was shipped on 11/28/24. The second 30-day supply was processed on 12/30/24.
We cancelled the Refill and Save auto shipment program per your phone request on 1/8/25. We notified you then that the order could be returned for a full refund,but we have not yet received any product returned to us. We also responded to your chargeback dispute through your financial institution on 3/17/25.
We do understand that there was some confusion about the trial terms and as courtesy we have issued a refund for the requested $75.98 for the December 2024 order.
We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Your complete satisfaction is very important to us so please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any additional questions and / or concerns at **************.

Dear **** ***** Pulido *******,
We are sorry for any confusion with your account with **********************.
On 9/5/2022, we placed a phone order for 3-month supply ************ Max. On a recorded phone line, you agreed to the Refill & Save auto shipments of a new supply to be automatically shipped every 90 days, unless cancelled. For every shipment that is sent, we were provided with delivery confirmations for each shipment, except for the last order sent on 9/2/24. This order was physically returned to us by the post office as being unclaimed, return to sender. We issued a refund for this returned order on 10/10/24 and cancelled the Refill & Save auto shipment program.
We have not had any contact till a representative for the customer called our company on 3/5/25 claiming the customer did not receive any shipments since 2022. Any product that was not able to be delivered would have been sent back to us,instead of giving delivery confirmations.
We let the customer know on the recorded line of the ability to cancel the auto shipment program at any time without obligation. We do offer a 90-day money back guarantee for all of our products. When the customers representative called us, all orders were outside of this 90-day MBG.
Your complete satisfaction is very important to us so please do not hesitate to reach out with any additional questions and/or concerns at **************.

A reputable company doing business in the State of ******** that does not provide an assertive and affirmative plain text enrollment process but rather uses deceptive and subversive tactics to auto enroll customers by default needs to be reported to the ****************************************************** for unfair and again deceptive business practices and I am taking this dispute there. IF you believe you offer a product that a reasonable customer would KNOWINGLY sign up for that exorbitant cost... I was charged ***** for a bottle of supplements, without ever setting up an account with you.... without ever receiving an invoice or receipt from you.... without ever getting ANY notification of an ongoing billing process from you. The first time I was aware of ANY monthly billing enrollment was via my ****** account. If you think enrollment by default is a bonifide business model, I am asking the State of Maryland to help you consider other, less fraudulent, tactics. If you put ANY of this in fine print, hoping consumers miss it until they are charged, shame on you. You will be out of business soon enough. I intend to strongly encourage the State to protect people like me from peddlers like this.Business Response

Hello *****************,
At the time of your initial trial purchase, you were asked to accept the terms of our trial offer subscription terms prior to submitting the order for Daily5.The terms outlined just above the checkbox where you would have clicked "I accept," indicated every customer had 18 days from purchase to cancel their trial period. If the account was not cancelled in that time prior to the trial end date, the order would enroll into auto-ship, and you would be billed for your first 30-day supply at ***** plus $5.99 shipping [and applicable State (*************)/******** (****** only) tax].
When you purchased on 2/11/25, your trial period was set to end 3/3/25 and when cancellation did not arrive, you were enrolled into auto-ship.
We are showing that as part of the trial offer, you also agreed to another 14-day supply of the Daily5 for the discount price of $29.99. This was shipped with your trial order on 2/11/25 to the provided shipping address.
Since we did not receive a cancellation request, we sent a subsequent shipment on 3/4/25 of the 30-day supply of Daily5. We accepted the chargeback on 3/11/25 as we received the product returned to us. We had already cancelled the Refill and Save auto shipment program on 3/6/25 when we received your cancellation request through ******.
We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Your complete satisfaction is very important to us so please do not hesitate to contact us with any additional questions and / or concerns ************

Dear **** ********,
We are sorry for the confusion with your order of the ************ MAX from Healthy Directions.
We have reviewed your account and found the order was submitted online on 1/22/25 for the 3-month supply of ************ MAX. We shipped the product on 1/23/25 and it was successfully delivered on 2/1/25.
A regular 30-day supply of the ************ MAX contains 60ct softgels. We show your order was fulfilled with our Economy sized bottle containing 180ct softgels. We know you value savings and simplicity, so all or part of your order today is being fulfilled using our economic value-sized bottle(s). This means you have fewer bottles to store and ensures you always pay the lowest price for your product. The larger bottle contains a full 3-month supply based on the suggested usage, so the pill count should be correct.
Your order is fulfilled with our 3 in 1 value-sized, 3-month bottle. This means fewer bottles to store, less waste, and always paying the lowest price.
We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Your complete satisfaction is very important to us so please do not hesitate us with any additional questions and / or concerns ************.
