I started with LA Weight Loss Center in Albuquerque, NM in Jan. of 07 and even took out a $2000.00 Care Credit Card so I could buy in bulk and save. May 1st I receive a generic letter
that the stores had close. I lost my $ 450.00 to sign up and also had to pay off the $2000.00 care credit.
I called LA Franchise office many times and they would not get back with me.
I hope they all close, The lady that had these stores filed bankruptcy and I can not get a penny back.

I would either cancel with your bank or credit card if you paid with one of them. Do all you can to get your money back. You will not see a refund, but still put a call into the Attorney General and get yourself a lawyer. You will not get good service at this point. Yes, the plan is awesome and it works…it’s one of the best out there, but I personally know and have read across the internet, that when most centers give a closing date, they suddenly close way ahead of given time. So don’t be surprised if you show up tomorrow and they are shut down. Good luck and I’m very sad and sorry for you.

Don’t do the ONLINE program either. It is a ripoff. It’s not the program you signed up for and you will not get the service you purchased. It’s just a way to keep you baited until they actually close country wide. With all the lawsuits, do you think they can really stay open at all? What a joke and a ripoff….Call the Attorney General so someone will just shut them down…

Keep fighting your bank. Threaten to call the Attorney General. Tell your bank to go to Rippoff report online and type in LA Weightloss and they will see how many people have purchased product they will never see…..Also, I would just call the Attorney General. LAWL has been in deep trouble with the AT in Oregon and Washington State as well as a few other states. You will not get your money back unless you fight for it.

The MN stores are closing. I just heard this on Monday. I go to the Coon Rapids store. She stated the last day they are open is on Dec 19th. And they are closed tues and thurs now too. They don’t have any bars left when I went there and there is only 1 person working there. She stated that when I come next they would go over what the plan is. I prebought all my bars and plan and it was close to $1300 also. I hope we are able to get something back. I will have to look at my contract to see what happens. I do believe that this program works, but this is not a way to run things. I am not happy about this. What do we do now?

What about MN?

Heard a rumor today that they have all closed. I went to my center in Eagan and they had a sign up saying they were no longer open on Tuesday and Thursdays. I just paid to renew my weeks in order to be eligible for the rebate and bought a huge bulk of bars. I tried to call the various twin city locations. All of them go to voicemail. I read this and have disputed my recent charges with my bank and credit card. Anyone else have any more information???
