    Do you all use the same bank? Going to look at mine now  :|
    Barclays for me ...
  • I had the exact same thing with the Herbalallti and the order transactions! I use Nationwide 
  • I think the same people are responsible for both companies, Herbal All Time (or Herbal Real Ltd as it is registered) and Daily Chemist. 

    If you review CH and look up the addresses and company names, there's definitely something really suspicious going on with the number of businesses associated at some of these addresses and so many commonalities in relation to directors or those with significant interest. Hope the banks can get to the bottom of it!

    Best guess. Is at some point you have all used a retailer who has been compromised and card details taken.
    They are now targeting this co as they are selling something that can be moved on at a profit.
    We used to see a lot of this at retailer that sold pet medication. You can guess where this ended up, and it was not to help pets.... Music Festivals have restarted and the need for certain products create this demand. 
    Life in the slow lane
  • I’ve had the same, my credit card is Tesco.

    I phoned the bank and they found transaction dating further back that just said ‘order’ or ‘online store’ going back until February.  

    I check my statement every month but because it just said order on the previous ones I missed it 🤦🏼‍♀️.  When Herbalallti showed this month I was very suspicious.  They said it was registered to address in Bridge Street (I think), London and was likely a health food shop.

    CC company are now investigating it as fraud



  • I’ve just realized I too place an order at Daily Chemist in December which was cancelled, few weeks later these transactions started.
  • I did the same with daily chemist and have also found a transaction from 'amznonline' which other people have reported as not amazon and from "online store" and "online shop"
  • On checking my bank statement i have just found the same thing has happened to me ie a transaction for £5.99 from HERBALALLTI  has been taken from my bank account 2nd october,bank notified and card blocked etc coincidentally as per other comment's on this forum i have also in the past purchased from DAILY CHEMIST are they involved ? Also last year had same issue ie 2 transactions for £5.99 which i didn't recognise from BKWAREHOUSE LT , address 31 barnlea close ,feltham ,twi3 5lq  which just happens to be the same address as HERBALALLTI, (beginning to smell a rat here ?) I think its time the banks investigated these companies and many more who operate from this address, they seem like small frauds which many people wont even recognise but in high numbers they must be scamming thousands of pounds on a regular basis.
  • You won't look like an idiot for reporting something so do it anyway. Worst case they say it's nothing.

    I reporetd something I later recognised and they just closed the investigation no questions asked.
