Greath health works is a scam company. They go into your bank account and take your money without your permission.

They tell you that you have 90 days money. It's a scam. You don't get your money back.

The product does NOT work and you can NOT cancel. Do not buy anything from this company you will regret it..

I haven't had that experience. I got too much of the product built up because they automatically send it.

So, I called them and got right through and they stopped it until I used most of what I had. This product is a lifesaver for me. But, I think to see it's benefits, you probably have to have joint problems or something. I can really tell a difference when I quit taking it.

My dog was on the pet one and it made him mobile again.

And, I also noticed a difference in my bloodwork. My cholesterol went way down.

My Doctor recommended that I do NOT take OMEGA XL. It is sold as a anti-inflammatory supplement.

He telephoned the company but was unable to obtain important information about the product. The doctor advised me it has the potential to be life threatening due to internal bleeding. Anyone purchasing this product should be extremely cautious. I have returned the initial order of two bottles consisting of 60 pills to Great HealthWorks.

A person answering the telephone at the company said they would credit my Visa and would not send me any product in the future.I hope they keep their word.

I heard about Great HealthWorks on a TV ad. Caveat Emptor.

It is not posible that it causes internal bleeding since it has so Little EPA.. compared to other fish oils in the market.

only 11mgs... So i belive you just had to ask for information they send documentation to your doctor if you request it.

Great Healthworks - Management Review from Pompano Beach, Florida

Great HealthWorks employs hundreds of people and is a leader in supporting the local community. We strive to deliver top-quality products to its customers, including OmegaXL, an all-natural supplement derived from the green lipped mussel and sourced from the pristine waters of New Zealand and encapsulated in the United States. We invest countless hours and resources training employees and developing products designed to improve the lives of our consumers. It is disappointing that someone would elect to publish this anonymous and defamatory post.

Great Health Works is a sweat shop

They treat there employees horrible

They caters to the Hispanic employees

*** ***** Ceo, Miles Dupree Coo, and David Boden attorney are Crooks. ..David is facing prison time..Ken is a racist and Miles is just *** and make dumb decisions If Ken was smart he would get rid of Miles and the business would probably grow. Miles and his wife show boat the company's money and rob the employees every chance they get. Miles made a decision to lay off dedicated employees in August 2014 these employees been with the company for over 3 yrs and they was replaced with new employees another dumb decision.New hires are hardly trained and graduate and become a disaster and fired. Health benefits are extremely high that employees cannot afford. No raises Never! !! I can go on and on about this company

Omega XL is from China not New Zealand

Do Not Work for this company

This is no true. I work for the company and believe these complaints to be absurd.

Great Healthworks - Best Natural Anti inflammatory by Far

I have been using Omegaxl 2 years now and it does everything for me. It stopped my Gout arthritus attacks, off high blood pressure and cholesteral meds. This really works. They treat me like a King over there. Not sure where you all went wrong. They are an American Company right in Florida and after 10 years still rate an A+ with the BBB. They have done exstensive research and clinical studies and contain 30 free fatty acid Omega threes. You cant find anything like it anywhere in the world. They even aqua farm the green lipped muscle to preserve the species sustainability.

Great Healthworks - Great DigestWorks....WORKS!

During the last few months I just wasn't feeling right ! Great DigestWorks is a premium quality probiotic supplement I’m starting to feel the results. Combined with OMEGA XL the changes that I am feeling are unbelievable ! A few months ago I felt my digestive system was out of order. I didn't have regular bowel movements, I always felt discomfort after eating dinner thing just didn't seem right! Once I started taking them I started to feel changes within the first week...irritable bowel movements wasn't even in my vocabulary ! thank you DigestWorks for changing my life !

Nothing. Nothing bad but definitely nothing good either.

I should have requested money back but not worth the effort and I am sure they know that. Have learned our lesson, one more time, that when you are desperate things to try sound too good to pass up, and if they work that is wonderful. All too often, however, if it is too good to believe it is probably just that. We just finished the second bottle and will not order more.

Hopefully, they will honor our request not to send any more.

We just refused an order and returned it. Will have to make sure we are not charged for same.

Buyer beware of Great Healthworks (XL-Omega). I have consistently had issues with this company.

(1)If you decide to cancel an account by phone, make sure your request is followed-up in writing otherwise they will "Defer" your account just to restore it and tell you that they cannot refund your money for the product mailed. (2) I experienced quite a bit of inconsistency with communicating with differerent representatives. (3) There is a lack of transparency in communications as well as their process in opening and closing accounts, as well as the so called "referral program." (4) check your bank statement monthly to ensure they are not mismanaging your funds. And if they owe you a referral, make them accountable in keeping their end of the bargain.

My dealing with this company has been unsuccessful.

I hope a new and better product comes through that knows how to treat loyal or new customers. Good luck!

I ordered Omega XL from a commercial on TV and took it for a month. I did not see results and called for the money back refund.

They told me I hadn't taken it long enough or enough and to take twice as much and that meant doubling my order. Next month it hadn't worked, called again and was told to double the intake once more which meant buying more product. When that product was gone I called back and they told me it would take time to work and I had to allow it to work.

After the extension of time it hadn't worked and they told me it was past the allotted 90 day refund period. DON'T FALL FOR THIS TAKE THEM TO SMALL CLAIMS!!!

Then this job is for you.. Their lack of professionalism and archaic management style is almost comical.

They not only manipulate their consumer, but also manipulate their staff. The only way they can retain their employees is by hiring those who would not be successful anywhere else anyways. Sorry, but the truth hurts. They do not retain anyone that is worth saving… The training is a joke.

And their policies and procedures change so often that they themselves have difficulty enforcing implementation.

If you need work you are better off begging on the corner. At least you will be able to sleep soundly at night.

Product is inferior, It does notwork as advertized or at all. The staff at all levels refused to close my account after I told them I was no longer interested.

They refused to stop sending the *** to me. They insisted in deductions not cancellation. They refused to refund me for all bottles that I had to pay for and throw away because they were useless to me .

These people are thieves and frauds. they need to be turned into the better businee bureau and the police for stealing from vulerable people that just want relief from their illnesses and pain!

Great Healthworks - I have no complaint at all

On 3/20/14, I ordered 2 bottles of Omega XL for about $90. A few days later, I called to cancel and request a refund. The rep said to wait until my order arrived, mark it "return to sender", and it would take another 30 days or so after that to get my refund. I did as he asked, and was issued a refund for $81.90 (all but S&H) on 5/9/14. I had to wait a little while, but GH DID refund my money as promised. The reps I dealt with over the phone ("Randy" and "Denise") were courteous and followed through with their promises to refund my money. I cannot complain about their customer service, and am only taking the time to write this in order to be fair to them. They may have mistreated the other posters here that are complaining-but they treated me very fairly.

It is unfortunate that the loss of your position with us has been so difficult for you. However, the policies you describe do not correspond with those Great HealthWorks has in place. Our actual policies are designed to protect our customers. Sometimes it is necessary for us to let someone go for that same purpose.

Worst possible. Work at home job ever.

My contract was terminated without warning after only working for three weeks, because I could not meet the 52% retention of saving customers. 95% of these customers are 75 years and older, these are old people who are living on a fixed income and are being forced to stay on this product, which is just a supplement. These customers have all kinds of ailments and this Omega XL is not a miracle pill it will not make them live any longer, or cure them. I cried myself to sleep knowing that I was a part of this company scamming old people out of their pension, or SS.

There were people that lost their jobs and could not afford the product, and they we were still trying to ship and bill their credit cards every month. The company has this infomercial stating that if you buy one bottle, you get one bottle free, but the infomercial does not state that you will be billed and shipped two bottles going forward nether does the sales agent that takes the call. The company does not put the total amount on their invoices, so the customer gets a surprise when they receive the credit card statement in the mail. The company claims that the customers have a 90 money back guaranty on the first two bottles, but by the time the customer really gets their account cancelled it is way past the 90 days.

And if the customer does not ask for the money we were told to not refund the customer their monies. They train you to be empathetic to the customer’s feelings and pains but not their Credit Card. If a product is that good then the company will make millions by repeat business and word of mouth. Not forcing and scamming.

They claim the customer is not in any contract, but we cannot cancel. We were trained to do everything within our power to keep shipping and billing the customer monthly. There are cases where customer cancelled their accounts and it was mysteriously activated and they get the surprise in their credit card statements. This is what has America where it is today, Scam to become richer from poor people.

If you are heartless with no morals and values and don’t care about your grandmother or is not even a Christian, then this job is for you.

It is and was not for me so I Thank God when the company sent me the email stating that my contract was terminated. If I felt that I needed to cancel based on the customer’s situation then I cancelled.

I cancelled my membership by fax on 12-23-13 and on 12-31-13 they sent out another order. I called and waited on hold for 50 minutes before I got a live operator.

I was able to cancel my membership by telephone but they refused to refund my shipping. I am waiting for a supervisor to call me back.

Since this is their mistake, I feel they owe me the refund of the shipping also. Their response is you cannot cancel by fax, only by speaking to a customer service representative, who offers you a discount, then offers you free product and then suggests you take 8 capsules a day!

DO NOT leave your number for a call back, as it never happens.

I am in the same boat. Very bad customer service and definitely a scam.

I did the same thing and they are saying they never received the second shipment back. I refused it and returned to sender. I was told I would have to pay for shipping on it IF they ever get it back. I've been on hold for half an hour for a supervisor which I am guessing will not take my call.

I got a call AFTER a telephonic cancellation of my membership where the rep pretended I was still a customer. When I told him I cancelled, he did his best to try to get me to reinstate membership saying I hadn't given it enough time.

It took some anger on my part before he finally backed down and told me a refund minus shipping would be coming for my initial order.
