WARNING
WARNING — misleading checkout and terrible customer service I strongly recommend that people be extremely careful before purchasing anything from EM/Embody (JoinEM.co). I selected a one-month tirzepatide plan for $149 that was advertised as having no commitment. Immediately after paying, the website presented an upgrade offer prominently advertising “$268” for three months, and specifically saying, "you only pay today $268 The screen stated: • “You already paid (1 Month Plan): $149” • “3-month bundle at $139/month: $417” • “You pay today: $268” • “You pay only the difference: $268” I understood that I was upgrading or converting my original one-month purchase. Instead, I was left with the original $149 charge, charged an additional $268, and also charged a separate $19 subscription fee. The total taken from my debit card was $436. In my opinion, this checkout and upsell process was confusing, misleading, and deceptive. I initially selected a one-month plan with no commitment, but the process resulted in $436 in charges. I called immediately to cancel everything. The representative could not clearly explain the charges or resolve the problem. I requested a supervisor, but they would not connect me with one. Even more concerning, the representative asked me to send screenshots proving what their own website was offering. This gave me the impression that their representatives are not properly informed about the company’s promotions and do not have the necessary information or authority to solve billing problems. I also emailed the company immediately, instructing them to cancel all orders and subscriptions, stop fulfillment, and refund the charges. Their policy for refunds is terrible.

We’re sorry to hear about the confusion and frustration surrounding the checkout and billing process. We understand your concern that you selected a one-month plan advertised at $149 and then encountered additional charges that you did not expect. We also understand how frustrating it was to contact customer service immediately, yet feel that the charges were not clearly explained or resolved and that you were unable to speak with a supervisor. We apologize for the confusion and inconvenience. We’d appreciate the opportunity to review your account, checkout details, and billing history to better understand the charges and your cancellation and refund request. - Embody Team
