wowcher,groupon,wahanda voucher for know your body tv scam

Just wanted to let everyone know of a scam company featured on wowcher, Groupon and wahanda. Those who bought vouchers for the food intolerance test for know your body tv is a scam. Not sure if anyone on this forum have posted yet.
I fell victim I bought vouchers got form to fill out and send sample and that was it heard nothing else that was over a month ago when I did not recieve results within the given time and none of my emails were answered I started to search the company. I came across others posting threads on whatconsumer.co.uk saying its a scam as they had same problem.
After hearing threir stories and replying to one thread who got a refund from wowcher I brought it to the attention of where I bought vouchers from.
Wowcher had know knowledge of scam when I called enquiries even though it was brought to their attention and they gave refund etc. I just got confirmation for refund now after a few emails been sent complaining.
If there is anyone else out there who has an unredeemed voucher or has sent form but no reply get in touch with the voucher company you bought from asap.
On top I was very upset that someone out there has my details and DNA!!!
be warned

  • I bought a voucher for this test too, and i did have some problems getting hold of them. I called a couple of times and it took a few days for someone to get back to me.

    The problem turned out to be i had entered my code wrong - I'm blond ok ;) It took a little while longer than expected to get my results once sorted, but i was so pleased with them when i did. I got a glossy book explaining results and my actual results printed separately.

    I was sceptical, as some of the things on the results i hadn't noticed an symptoms from but i cut the listed things out of my diet to try, and i tell you what, i feel infinitely better at work. I was having a really bloated stomach most days, and lethargy, i cut out caffeine, tomatoes and soy from my diet (i was actually drinking soya milk because i thought it would be better for me) and i feel amazing.

    Not the best customer service, but i can't fault the testing and ultimately the benefit I've seen. I am tempted to get a blood based test now, as they do say blood based sample is necessary for true 'allergy" tests.

    If you have problems like i did i can recommend, though i might not pay full price (see if they list again on groupon or something)
  • Wowcher is a big scam, they advertise valid from and to dates but when you buy them they are only usable for a month, then they dont give you your money back they keep it and you have to use it in a specific time or they just confiscate it off you. TRUST me it is a rip off
  • I bought a deal from wowcher yesterday to get a Guardian Angel Necklace for £8. It was advertised as being originally for £65 from Alvi's fashion so I bought it thinking I was getting a good deal. I also had to pay £4 for p&p bringing the total to £12. Subsequently I have found the same item new on ebay, amazon and other sites retailing for £7.99 inc. p&p. The original price had been made up by Alvi's fashion so they could appear to be selling at a discount when in fact they were not. This is fraudulent. I contacted Wowcher with my isdsues and they fobbed me off twice justifying their actions as legit. This was my first and last buy from wowcher until they admit their fault and make it right. So annoyed.
