On 1/23/25 PureHealth charged me for a second bottle of Bone Health that I did not order. They charged my card without my authorization. Apparently this is pattern & practice as there are similar complaints against this company, it cost me over $9 to ship the item back to them. This is unfair as I never ordered this item. I just want to warn others about this scam if they order from them.Business Response

I purchased one supplement from this company over a year ago, but did not like it therefore had no need for more or any solicitation.. I emailed them on at least 5 occasions to take me off of their mailing list and it has yet to stop. They do not have an unsubscribe button which is unusual, but at this point I am not at all surprised. I want to be done with this company. Please help!Business Response

Hi there. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
After thoroughly reviewing the account, we found that, unfortunately, unforeseen shipping delays have resulted in inconsistent tracking updates. At this time, we are unable to proceed with a reshipment because a dispute has been filed with the credit card company. We must wait for the dispute to be resolved before we can take further action.
We recommend contacting the credit card company directly to follow up on the status of the dispute for quicker resolution.
We deeply regret the frustration this situation has caused and truly appreciate your patience as we work with all parties involved. If you have any additional questions or need further assistance, please dont hesitate to reach out.

The company terminated the "repeating order" after receiving the BBB message concerning my complaint. So I am happy about that since I was unaware it was a "repeating order" when I purchased it.
I will say that they also sent me a couple of emails to give their product a good review for a huge coupon reward even before receiving their product. I replied for them to stop asking for reviews of a product I have not even received and requires at least a month of use to know & report any good reviews. I received a message back that they understood my request and did not send further emails.

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me although it is unfortunate that this business utilizes this deceptive practice in it's ordering process. It is never made clear that a "subscription" is being ordered. I have suspicions that they count on MANY multiple "subscription orders" being sent out & people's accounts charged before customers realize & try to figure out how to cancel the "subscription" they never realized they signed up for in the first place. Please change your ordering process to clear up this malfeasance.
Best Regards,

Hello,
****** did refunded me ****** for the August 15th payment to Pure Health Research. I have been waiting from ****** on the other case with Pure ***** for the charge of ****** on May 15th with no response from ****** except that that case was closed so I called them back and they told me to ignore that email message and that they are still working on that and will email me. No email!!
So as of right now, I still am getting no help with the May 15th charge of ****** from Pure Health. As I said, Pure Health sent these omega 3s but I never received them. That had tracking to my mailbox, but I never got these 3 containers and I NEVER even ordered them!! It is a mystery of how the heck did this company get into my ******. Their ad was on Instagram which I looked at and thought about buying but quickly got off their ad seeing how much it was going to cost. I contacted them but got the run around. They wanted me to cancel the case with ****** and then maybe get refunded after following all their protocol. If I had cancelled the case with ****** then I could not start another case if Pure Health didnt refund me in the weeks following so I didnt cancel that case with ******.
It is now weeks later and this case with ****** is still not resolved. They told me to just wait which is ridiculously long. Now I get your email telling me my case is closed. It is all so frustrating to say the least.
*******************************
n automatic accruing shipments on my ******. ****** *** took them off right away. So this response from them is pretty much saying that I am out of luck for they will still ship this new shipment to me and they ignore my request for refunds. I answered back to them how furious I was and that the 5/15/24 shipment was NEVER received.As I have read here on Trust Pilot many people had similar problems with them.This was an ad off of Instagram which I watched but after starting an order realized that it just didnt feel right so I cancelled and didnt think any further into this until I saw charges on my ******. So I am thinking is actually put in info BEFORE CANCELLING and they just used that info to send and charge me for these 3 containers. Total scammers!! I need your help with this to get my money back please.Business Response

Someone from this company contacted me months later and helped me with this problem. This very kind young woman said she would look into this and promised a refund would come to me ASAP which it did. I was so surprised that after so many months someone really helped me. Shocked was my reaction. I forgot I had post the bad about this company on BBB and what I said here should be posted on BBB as my last correspondence with this company as a positive ending .
