Proactive keeps billing me for products I did not order or receive and now I'm being threatened with collections.
In February of this year I made a one time order from Proactive for the amount of *** which came right out of my account. After receiving my order I was sent another email saying I had a shipment on the way. The email had no order number or amount due and I never ordered anything else so I called to cancel my account with them and make sure I was not charged for anything other than my first and only order. They confirmed I would not be charged for anything else and my account was cancelled. Since then they are claiming I owe them *** and are threatening collections. I refuse to pay for something I didn't order or receive. On August 6th they sent me another email saying my order had been shipped and I received a box with two items I never ordered. I don't want these items at all but I don't think I should pay for the shipping to send them back.
I want the amounts I do not owe resolved. I want proof I am not in collections and that my credit has not been affected my this since I have to pay to see my report. I also want a guarantee that I will not be bothered or charged by Proactive again for something I did not order. Lastly I want labels sent for free shipping to send the box back I received.

My card was fraudulently charged starting in July and Proactiv continued to charge my account over *** in 1 month. I never have used this company.
Starting 7/31 my account was charged multiple times a day and multiple amounts from TPC Proactiv even though I have never used them.
I called my bank on 8/15 to let them know about these charges being fraudulent but Proactiv continued to charge me. Again I have never used Proactiv never talked to them.
When I called Proactiv to ensure they are no longer charging me they some how had received my new account number and were charging it again for fraudulent charges.
I want this fake account stopped and turned off from Proactive and all the charges to be dropped.

I cancelled my subscription SEVERAL TIMES yet I continue to receive bills and now threats of collection action.
I subscribed to Proactiv service for acne treatment products several years ago for my son. Now that he is grown and on his own , I wished to cancel to service. I have called several times to cancel. Each time the agent has had "computer problems " making the cancellation process very lengthy. I continue to be billed for product I did not order and have not received. Today I received a threatening email from a *** (no contact info provided) stating that collection procedures would begin if I don't submit payment. I will not pay for something I did not order/receive. I expect Proactiv to cancel the account and cease harassment.
Cancel account and stop harassment for payment.

All I wanted was to cancel account and stop billing. The company is finally agreed to do this. I'm satisfied.
I signed up under a wrong pretense that their product costs *** but after cancelling I was told I owe ***
***
I ordered ProactivMD as a promo, and before I realized I was supposed to cancel, they had charged me *** upon which I cancelled my account. A few weeks later I received a package of products which I figured, it's what I paid for when they charged me *** I now received an email stating that I am being sent to collections for *** that I still owe. This is dishonest and should be highlighted and noted on their website or stated that *** is just a promo / trial size price.
I will send the products back and would like my account removed from collections.
My account removed from collections and the balance cleared

Thank you! It helps a lot.
Continually charging for an subscription when a 1 time purchase was mand and authorized.
This company is extremely misleading. I ordered a product for a 1 time purchase and then was continued to be charged for products I did not order. When I called to cancel they told me that the product had already been shipped. Was also told it was in a warehouse and in fact had not been shipped. However since they already charged my card without authorization and scheduled a shipment which I also did not authorize that they could not do anything about it. I would have to wait to receive the product and return it my own expense. This company is complently a scam.
This product to never be delivered and the full amount of 33.94 plus any ridiculous shipping cost they try to scam me out of to return an unwanted, unauthorized charge to my account

Ok. Thanks for clarifying my issues.
(this complaint is against The Proactiv Company, ***)
When it wan't working as advertised they were called and I was told they would call me. No one called after 48 hours. When I called again I was told I had called and cancelled. I told them I had not cancelled and was waiting for a call. They said again I would get a call within 48 hrs. They did call again! When I called again, I was told again I had cancelled! I again told them I had not! I asked to speak to Supervisor (I had tried to call corp. office). They didn't care about their product not being as advertised. She just said stop using it and they automaticly cancel people with telling them. This is after I had sent *** on the Proactive. The product worked at first, then it seemed to cause breakouts after 3 months.
Return all my money. Shipments - 12-28-18, 1-3-19, 3-15-19, 5-23-19

Sent an invoice, never subscribed.

Cr: ***
Order Number: ***
Bought a Proactiv set on eBay for *** Paid seller accordingly. Was not informed that seller was going to subscribe me to a Proactiv service, and I never authorized consent to do so. Received a past due invoice in the mail for *** with a notice saying my CC has been declined, presumably from the seller who entered his CC information with my address and name fraudulently on the site. I was never made aware that I would be subscribed, and I NEVER authorized a subscription, and I want my subscription cancelled IMMEDIATELY and my balance owed cleared.
I want my subscription cancelled IMMEDIATELY and my balance owed cleared, as I never knowingly authorized such a transaction.
Complaint has been resolved by the company.
Very disappointed in Proactiv. No stars deserved - in fact should be an option to rate negative stars.
I have been using the renewing cleanser for 30 years.
A few years back Proactiv switched systems and conveniently lost my membership data including the price. I was treated as a brand new customer with the price for three cleansers quadrupling in price!
I still continued to use the product even though customer service is terrible - takes at least 30 minute call to place an order for 3 cleansers. Cannot do it online because it activates the auto enrollment. Total scam!
Yesterday, I called Proactve to place my quarterly order. I looked at my credit card charges today and Proactive charged my credit card 3x the amount I authorized!!!
Proactiv has upped their game to full blown credit card fraud.
Took another 30 minute call to get the charges removed.
Horrible customer service and questionable ethics. I requested to have my credit card data deleted and will NEVER use Proactiv again.
Congratulations after 30+ years of loyalty to your products your lack of good ethical customer service has finally chased me away for good.
The company continues to bill me for product I did not order and did not receive. I explained to them in writing that the charges are not legitimate.
The cr they have for me is ***. About one year ago I ordered a free sample from them, and then returned it, as I did not want the product. After that, they tried to charge my credit card for a delivery of product, which I did not order and did not receive.
The charge was disputed and removed from my card. I did not hear again from the company until April/May of this year when my credit card company recognized their name and contracted me to see if the charge was mine. It was not, and the charge was removed from my credit card. About a month later, I received a bill via mail. I wrote back to them telling them the charge was not mine, but they continue to bill me, sending "past due invoices."
I would like for them to stop billing me; I will not pay for a product I did not order or receive. I would like for them to remove my name from their records and not contact me in the future.

We apologize for any inconvenience this process may have caused.
On July 30, 2019, the Proactiv(r) account in your name was flagged as Suspicious Activity to ensure the account could not be reopened. The outstanding balance has since been cleared.
Please rest assured that the Proactiv(r) account in your name is closed with a zero balance. Nothing additional will be shipped or billed.

Yes, their response appears to resolve the issue. Thank you very much for your assistance - I do not think I could have done it without your help.
I cancelled my daughters online subscription and even removed my payment source from the website. I keep getting invoices for shipments sent even though I have canceled it. I paid by check for awhile, but they keep sending me invoices. I have refused invoices and returned them with cancel on them, but they are now sending me past due notices. I want them to STOP sending shipments that were NOT authorized and to stop sending invoices. I have NO intention of prepaying any more shipments. I want to be removed completely from their program. Lots of stores sell generic versions and an online subscription is extremely expensive and NOT needed. My Customer service number is XXXXXXX. The invoice order # is XXXXXXXX. The notice is dated 6/26/2019. They want *** People NEED to be allowed to quit the program. Removing my payment source from the site should have stopped them from shipping. Plus my daughter lives in another town and did not receive one 2 months ago.

I accept it as they finally closed my account. It is odd they not understand me removing my payment source, but at least they will stop billing me. Thank you for your intervention.
I have purchased the Deep Cleansing Wash. The product smells like its tainted and smells like gasoline.
I have purchased the Deep Cleansing Wash. The product smells like its tainted and smells like gasoline. I have contact multiple customer service lines to get this issue resolved. They keep sending me to a number that has no one in the office. I am worried this product is dangerous for my wifes skin.
I am looking for a full refund so I am able to purchase a new bottle, or possible a different Product from another company.

I have contacted X-Out several times and paid my invoices as they come in. They told me on the phone today that I owe them money from Jan. 2019. I sent them the payment in April 2019 , when I received a collections notice. They said I cancelled my subscription on April 13, 2019. I did cancel it because they are double billing me. Every time I would go to ask customer service a question, the man would tell me to fax my debit card info to them to pay a bill that I have already paid. Every time, I paid a bill, they shipped more product, which didn't work either. I called several times and requested my subscription be cancelled to to avail. I kept getting products and bills.

Billing Adjustment I would like for them to fix their records and stop billing me for something that I have already paid for.

All I wanted was for XOut to stop sending me collection notices. I appreciate them being willing to resolve the issue. I couldn't get anywhere with customer service cause they wouldn't listen.
