Hi

I joined Sureslim in February and found it hard work with the 5 hours and lack of carbs, I have coeliac disease so the only carbs I was allowed was 3 corn crispbreads a day. I was feeling really tired all the time but each time I asked my consultant about having gluten free bread instead was told I wasn't allowed. I don't know how trained my consultant was as she had just done the diet herself a year or so ago and hadn't yet reached goal! I felt I had to keep going and stick to it as best I could as I had paid $990 up front.

I heard from head office a couple of weeks ago to say my Sureslim branch in Henderson had closed and I couldn't visit another branch. I thought this was very strange and unhelpful so sent an email enquiry to the Newmarket branch, there was no central address to send it to. I asked for my money back and spoke to the head office again, and they said the first they knew was when the phone had been cut off and their franchise manager was going out to investigate. The head office told me they were going to open a new branch and I should hold tight, I have not heard from them again in nearly two weeks.

I have done a disputed payment query with my credit card company in the hopes of getting my money refunded.. After searching for information on Sureslim I found your Real Women website and see from old threads going back years that this sort of thing has happened before, I wish I had investigated a bit more earlier. I would say be extremely wary of Sureslim. I would like to hear if anyone else has had any problems recently.
