    Have you had your money back yet? I've sent proof of postage for my returns but keep getting statements from them adding debit intrest. Am getting increasingly annoyed!:mad:

    Just banked a cheque from Kleeneze for the full £160 that I paid out. I'm relieved and pleased that I got all the money back.

    Hey, well done! Actually had a 'phone call from them a couple of weeks ago and I went through it all (again:mad: ) with them. Still no sign of anything being resolved though. In the meantime, I keep getting a weekly statement from them showing an ever increasing balance due to the debit interest they're adding :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    He does one drop and packs in, why join in the 1st place if your going to give it up after one drop.
    Use the cat's you have and drop them again to different houses and get more orders so that you can put an order in to kleeneze over £100 so those people who TRUSTED you enough that they would get their goods will at least get their goods, it's newbie's like you that give decent distributor's a bad name and make it extremely hard for other new distributors who have more staying power.
    By the way if you go back more than once you will get most of those "lost" catalogues back, but that would be to much like hard work wouldn't it.

    pmsl! Thankfully, it was realised that a paper round would be more profitable.

    Interesting that this thread is still going and currently highlighting that fact than many people join and do not stick at it.

    The knock on effect of this, which as an example I pointed to the Horsham Kleeneze thread, is that the average householder cannot stop, once and for all, Kleenze agents delivering unsolicited catalogues.

    Delivering catalogues to a household that do not want them is a frustrating or the householder and wastes time for the agent (so to mention the anger that he/she may have to face).

    Surely it's about time something was done about this?

    The only way to stop this would be by allocating territories which won't happen because the Company would lose all the current new start up fees and catalogues bought by these people, the team leaders would find they can't recruit and would get demoralised.
    It would be very difficult to administer and it would have to run along the Betterware lines instead of Network Marketing. Everyday Essentials tried the territory allocation and Networking and it is just so difficult to track. Team Leaders don't want the restriction of only recruiting in a set area, to be successful you have to be able to recruit nationwide.

    I tried Kleneeze when I was very desperate-I had no credit and had to pay for everything up front-that was the sales kits/catalogues and the goods.I had a few customers who were 'out' when I called back with the orders. I'd paid up front so I lost out. Every so often I find a piece of 'strangeness' like the microwave egg boiler and something like a roll on deodorant with a fisherman on it.

    I needed to give it time and effort (and what an effort0 but I lost about a £100 and by the time you'd added on dropping off/picking up/packing etc I reckoned -like others- that I earned about 90p an hour.In this area there was a cheery Bettaware man who did quite well-he's given up/ there were 3 Kleeneze reps at various times all now gone. Of the people I started with one chap did quite well ( an ex-travelling salesman) initially but he gave up after a few months, and the man who signed us on ?
    Not sure but there's a local gardening firm run by a man of his name ..

    I don't think it's a feasible way to make money-not round here at least but there is a Wilkinson's an easy drive away and 2 locally famous Aladdin's cave type shops of all items sold at a bargain price

    Further to my previous post about how well my local area had taken to Kleeneze and how i could see a half decent income, they messed up my delivery and it has taken some 2 months to get everything returned to them and get all my money back, they have finally written of the interest they claimed t i owed them closed my account and given back my start up fee. my experience of their customer service is attrocious and only by getting peoples names, threats of court and telling them i would be charging them a fee for every phonecall and email did i get it resolved. i am genuinely glad to see the back of them

    I have been with Kleenze for 6 years. We joined when my wif was made redundant. We wnated to earn £400 a month, we retail and we have a small team and we earn approx £800 a month. It DOES work but some people are just to lazy and want a fast buck. It's not going to happen..... unless you are highly motivated by debt etc.

    I always tell new people who show an interest that they need to work hard in the early days - like an appreticeship. After 6 months most people know what they need to do. I don't want to encourage people to join through rose tinted glasses. I always use the motto - 1 volunteer is better than 10 pressed men. If people know they are going to get wet, lose some catalogues, not always get orders and come along some VERY rude residents then they are prepared.

    Kleeneze is what you make of it, we have made a success of it at the level we require, quitters have got what they want to. Not everyone is suited to running their own life and they need to be with the 'flock'......BAAAAAAAAAAAA

    Kleeneze makes a lot of play out of 'selling' the success of their top few people - and says nothing regarding the many who buy into the business in good faith, only to fail.

    If you are reading this wondering whether to join, forget the hype & let the company figures do the talking.

    Kleeneze has 3 main 'legs' whose combined bulk sales accounts for most of their business: Gavin Scott (GS), Chris Mason-Paull(CMP), Freda Fenn(FF).

    November (P12 for those in the business) is the most successful - these are the ACTUAL turnover figures for the last 3 years:

    2005:
    GS: 4,584,278
    CMP: 1,724,410
    FF: 818,490

    2006:
    GS: 3,821,392
    CMP: 1,351,094
    FF: 769,247

    2007:
    GS: 3,309,174
    CMP: 1,107,726
    FF: 765,317

    Remember, these are the 3 most successful groups in Kleeneze - and if they can't retain their people with over 15 year experience ... what chance do you have?

    YEP A LOT OF SHEEP LEAVING THE FLOCK FOR A FEW YEARS NOW BAAAAA
