    I was sent an offer from them for a free trial of some toothwhitening stuff for all only $4.99 postage. I thought ok and filled it in.

    Then I got the receipt email!!!! Thay had charged me $14.98 for the postage & packing. I spoke to them online and they said it was in the T&Cs at the bottom... which it was. The T&Cs were huge and it never mentioned when filling in credit card details.

    Also in T&Cs it informed me I would be charged $59.99 for a months supply which would only be refunded if I returned it in 14days... I called them 4 1/2minutes after ordering the sample and they refused to not send it as they said it had already been shipped. I sent 'in 4 1/2 minutes you've shipped it?' and they said yes.

    So I was conned! a FREE sample for $4.99p&p has cost $75!!! and the postage to send it back... even tho they hadnt sent it out.

    BEWARE!!!! KEEP AWAY FROM DAZZLEBRIGHT SPECIAL OFFER AND
    KEEP AWAY FROM REALFREESAMPLES!!!!! Facebook should remove them...

    well have they taken the first smaller payment? cause you then can get your bank to block them.
