This didn’t work, is a waste of money, and you shouldn’t charge a fee for me to cancel!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I called to cancel, but not only did my account get charged for another shipment, I also had to call back a second time to get the return label. I was also charged to cancel.

Total scam. Don't waste your money.

The sad truth about being an It Works distributor..

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I want to share my personal experience as an It Works distributor. I was with the company for about 6 months.

After listening to enough of their "success" stories I finally figured I'd give it a try as a side job for extra income. There's a fee of $99.00 to join. There are many things they don't tell you until after you have already joined. First, if you order products at their discount you will be automatically signed for for 3 months.

If you try to cancel you have to pay a $50 fee. They try to scam people into signing up without telling them the whole story. Then, unless you cancel your subscription after three months, you will continue to receive It Works products forever! Be sure to log in to your online account and cancel and remove all of your payment information or you will be charged for a long time.

Next, you basically have to pay money to earn money. Unless you sell $150 worth of products to customers EVERY month you will not receive your commission. You also have the option of paying $80 every month yourself in order to get commission. Your commission check could be $20.00 yet you would have to pay $80.00 to receive that...pretty ridiculous right?

The distributors teach you how to get others to join your team as a distributor or to get customers by basically lying to them. They tell you to never tell a customer that they are signing them up for three months! They just say you're getting a 40% discount but don't tell you the rest of the terms! If you do decide to sign up as a loyal customer make sure you do it yourself so you know your login information and read the terms and conditions.

If you don't and want to cancel before the three months are up you will be charged $50! Overall, I have spent over $500.00 on products and fees and have only earned $15.00 in 6 months! I earned more a day working a part time job when I was a teen. Next, they don't tell you there's a $20.00 fee every month for your website to work.

That's in addition to the $80.00 so you're commission qualified. Basically, you'll be paying more every month then you'll actually earn. Don't get fooled by their success stories, the more money someone has earned with this company actually means they lied that much better. They teach you to lie to get customers because that's the only way someone will join them.

Their products don't work either. I have tried 8 of their wraps and they have done absolutely nothing. I mean I would understand if one didn't work, but EIGHT? Come on.

Then I tried the cleanse which again did absolutely nothing at all. I tried the Hair,Skin, and Nails vitamins which did nothing to make my hair grow. I would have been better off buying the vitamins at Walmart for $10.00. All the products themselves are made in Mexico from really cheap ingredients.

You have to wonder if they're even safe to use since we all know the water in Mexico is unclean and very dangerous in most places. What are you really putting into your body?! It's kind of a scam that they don't have any reviews on their website don't you think? The only photos they use of their products actually working are ones they created themselves.

You have to ask yourself what kind of company really wouldn't allow their customers to post honest reviews of their products. The kind that just wants your money. Please really think about everything I just mentioned before you join this company as a customer or distributor. It's really unethical and misleading to it's customers and distributors.

If you're reading this, I believe you can find a much better job literally anywhere and make a better living in an honest way where you don't have to lie to people everyday.

Don't waste your time, the only people really succeeding in this company are the ones who know how to lie really well. I think you deserve better.

Itworks promised thousands of dollars a month but I only lost money and have tons of *** makeup that my friends don't want. I've been blocked on tiktok and Instagram by some of my favorite people and I am sad.

Avoid ALL mlms and pyramid schemes and the world will be a better place.

Guest

Just stay away from this dishonest company. Save your money and buy products elsewhere and find a different line of work. They sell cheaply made products from Mexico and pass them off as "natural" and "organic." This company is a joke.

Guest

It works Global teaches you to preach God and then disconnect with anyone who doesn't agree with you. Even your family.

If your circle doesn't support you just get another circle. I have known several people involved with this company and it does some major brainwashing and turns you against the people closest to you. Beware.

Very few people actually make money and if you do it takes years and by then you have no family or friends left. #$cult atmosphere !!

I just purchased and it makes your heart so weird things. I think investigation is in order.

This company is one huge scam. They encourage you to relentlessly message strangers 20-30 times, to push your products.

You're taught that, no means not right now, and to continue messaging them until you get a yes, or the person blocks you. Name one other company that does that? None! Only these MLM's, pyramid schemes do.

If someone tells you no, it's NO! You don't keep hounding them. And if anyone tells you that you don't have to run an auto ship, they're lying! It's literally in their comp plan that to qualify for a shopping spree or any bonuses, you have to have an auto ship running.

To get to 80pv, it's about $130, plus your $20 dollar website fee. So you have $150 going out every month, and you'd be lucky to even earn that in a month. Truth is, you'll lose money. Also, if anyone is telling you they're making money, please read their Income Disclosure Statement.

It literally shows that over 95% of people earn less than $250 a month, with the majority earning an average of $48 a month. That's before your auto ship and website fee and any other money that scam out of you.

Point is..... Don't do it!

Don’t trust this company or any positive reviews..

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I was offered a free trial from a Facebook Influencer. Next thing I knew-I was getting pressured into buying the bottle.

I was told if I ordered the product that day-I would avoid the $19 fee. I explicitly said I didnt want a membership-and I didnt want anything to do with an MLM structured company. I didnt want any type of monthly orders coming off my PayPal. I was having a problem getting thru-and the person that told me about this free sample had completed the order.

That wasnt the worst part..that came when 2 days into waiting for the shipment-this representative kept bothering me to make out a Facebook review to tell all my friends how great this product is with giving me energy, and losing weight. I told her I didnt have time to do that-I didnt even try 1 pill and I refused to lie to my friends about a free trial, especially knowing that they wont get a free trial for free, and I am not into sales. I was told it was completely 100% guaranteed, and they will not be out one penny but it gives her all this energy so she can use that energy to bug someone else bcuz I have blocked her and reported the transaction. This product is nothing like she said it would be.

I had severe stomach pains, throwing up, and they claim you lose weight..I wouldnt doubt it with all the diarreah you will get! I got shots in both of my thighs, IV for dehydration, and very expensive yellow urine. The doctor said when you see all the yellow color in your urine-they must be using over concentration of vitamins that your body cant use, and doesnt need and you are just flushing it away. I had to take a prescription stomach medicine to try and stop these symptoms.

Never again!! They are sending me a shipping label that will expire before I receive my unwanted product they charged me for when Ive written 5 times, filed a complaint thru PayPal, and they still went ahead and sent it. Im still waiting for the refund for the first bottle that made me sicker than a dog! I dont need this aggravation-and dont handle people taking my money without my permission.

Exactly what I told the influencer that I will NOT stand for. If you want diarrhea so bad-u will get the same effect by eating 20 prunes! What a nightmare this product turned out to be! So, change the company name to Heck No it doesnt WORK!

Beware! I am a pissed off customer-and I refuse the pressure from this company to keep their hand in my bank account!

The person who recommended on IT WORKS, through Facebook, gave False information to me. She Never told me about the Auto-Ship, the True Cost of these Products and the Return Policy from this company.

Also, I returned two boxes of CLEANSE which contain 4 bottles and the Company Never Credited my Credit Card and they kept the products!!

What, wait a minute!!! Can they legally keep my products without Crediting my Credit Card???

I bought your coffee product to help my granddaughter start her new business.

I specifically asked if there was "auto ship" & she said no. Found out today a second shipment is on the way & almost $100 was charged to my credit card.

I DO NOT WANT AUTO SHIP. I cannot afford this plus your coffee tastes like POISON.
