hi martin, i to have been scammed by this company vividwhitesmiles, the advert stated free trial teeth whitener no subscription free trial just pay £2.50 post and packaging. I got this message via hot mail UK, Am registered disabled and at the time of ordering long-suffering terribly with facial abscesses teeth related. After waiting a week and the goods had not arrived I sent the company an email, asking were was my goods and to tell them as this was a free trial period only were you had the choice to unsubscribe I THOUGHT i had. HOWEVER A FEW DAYS LATER WHILST I WAS CHECKING MY ON LINE BANKING I NOTICED THIS COMPANY HAD TAKEN AN AMOUNT OF £55.42 OUT OF MY ACCOUNT. WITH BEING DISABLED I GOT MY FRIEND TO TAKE ME TO MY BRANCH AS I HAD BEEN CHARGED ON MY VISA DEBIT ACCOUNT. THE PERSONAL BANKER STATED I WOULD HAVE TO WAITE14 DAYS FOR THE COMPANY TO REFUND ME OR GO BACK TO THE BRANCH AND THEY WILL TRY TO TRACE MY MONEY. I FEEL FURTHER HORRIFIED TO SEE WERE I THOUGHT I HAD SENT A MESSAGE TO UNSUBSCRIBE I HAVE NOW NOTICED UNDERNEATH IT STATES PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL. THE ONLY OTHER THING I HAVE DONE IS FOUND A PHONE NUMBER BUT IT IS TO THE USA OR CANADA CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME ANY ADVISE KIND REGARDS CAL. PS I THINK YOUR SIGHT IS AMAZING

vivids number uk is listed on vivids site as 01617680100 if you hover over american flag lists international numbers with flags give it a ring first it would seem you have missed it!0 -
calxxx,
a)if you are suffering from teeth abscesses why are you buying teeth whitener? Just a thought
b) I very much doubt that Martin reads every thread/post
c) capitals make people think you are shouting
seriously though,if you search you will see the company you ordered from have quite a following on here.
Search for the company name ansd see the posts by others who have been scammed/manipulated by Vivid (shouldn't put scam as I am sure there will be posters shouting no scam/you know what you bought/read the Ts and Cs). The posts may also give you an idea what to do next
good luck.0
