I ordered the Kevin Trudeau Natural Cures book for 14.95 and shipping charges of 9.95 for a total of 24.90.  I received a packing slip for the total amount that was put on my debit card.  The same day they took another 71.40 out of my checking acct without my knowledge. I did not order anything else, receive a receipt or invoice.

I was planning to send the book back for a refund, but now I doubt they will refund.

In May '05 I purchased the online Natural Cures 1-month service that allowed me to download anything from the natural cures.com website. My credit card was billed for the month of May. The service should have been over unless I signed up again.

I was billed 9.95 in June, then July and until November 2005. I looked on the website in June (thought I will eat the June charge), but there was no way to cancel, nor was there a contact. In Nov. I found an email address and was told my subscription was cancelled, but I am still being billed the 9.95 each month.

How do I get my money back and stop my credit card from being billed each month?

The book was supposed to be 14.95 but I was billed 24.90 plus an additional charge of 71.40, that I have no idea what it is for. I have not received the book.

Kevin Trudeau uses the same deceptive marketing practices that he accuses the big corporations of.

I used a toll-free number to order his book  for 14.95 and ended up getting 71.40 billed to my credit card.  When you call for the book you get a hard sell for magazine subscriptions, newsletters, and other products and merchandise. He does NOT say on the infomercial that these are the conditions for getting the book for 14.95, instead of the publisher's price of 29.95.

He states he wants everyone to be able to get the book, but what he DOESN'T say is that you have to subscribe to the free newsletters. There is also the offer of three free months of 3 different magazines, which you are IMMEDIATELY BILLED FOR! In addition to that a phony telephone number is listed on my credit card statement which makes it impossible to cancel or dispute anything.

I purchased his Natural Cures book. After dodging very aggressive attempts to purchase more items, I was told that I would be charged for the newsletter, as well as the book. However, I was told that I could cancel the newsletter subscription the next day and be refunded the extra charge - so that my total charge would end up being 24.95 for the book alone.

I received a charge for 70, which I have disputed, been told that it would be refunded and it has not. I'm beginning to see how he's earned his reputation as a scam artist.
