Omega XL

I did a one-time purchase of Omega XL online and made sure I did not click or sign up for any auto-ship. My emailed receipt also didn’t mention anything about auto-ship and neither did the infomercial. Yet they charged my credit card $78 without my authorization. The representative proceeded to tell me that I absolutely knew what I was signing up for and that I had to wait to refuse the delivery and I would have to pay for the shipping. Outrageous! This is an absolute scam for a mediocre BS product. I’m enraged at a company that blatantly steels the customer's money. I trusted them with my credit card and they go and criminally steal my money. They claim I have to wait 30 days for a reduced refund since I have to pay for shipping. Additionally, the representative repeatedly continues to give me a product review and ask me a bunch of medical questions about my health and the weather and inflation, etc. What BS of customer service. I will never purchase from this company ever. They are thieves in disguise.

I have been taking Omega XL for a month now and my body hurts more than it did, I've also been taking vitamin XL D3 immune bone, and brain health, I've been having headaches since I have been taking them. I was hoping that this would work, but it was totally the opposite.

My husband and I have been taking this product for over 4 years and really like it. It does stop our pain if we take it all the time. The problem is in trying to contact them. The hold time is long and they seem to try to keep you waiting as long as they can without helping. Our shipments always came before we needed them and would get 6 months worth sitting in the cupboard. We never knew for sure when the next shipment would arrive. They say they can put it on hold which they did except not knowing when the next shipment would arrive, we didn't always call in time. I was able to cancel (so they said) but then two days later I received another shipment costing almost $300 which will not be needed for at least two more months! Dealing with them is worse than our pains. There must be another product that works and maybe cheaper.

Omega XL isn't a terrible form of Omega 3 fatty fish oils. But if you do your research, you will find it is not a top quality of fatty Omega 3 a fish oil. Larry King can get away with promoting it because it is ok. Not great, just ok. It claims in the commercial that you can't buy it in stores. Walmart has it. It always concerns me when I find discrepancies. If you can't get or don't have a better quality in your town than yes, I would buy it.

I felt no difference with the product and decided to cancel within the 90 days.

I was promised a 30-day supply for free, if I gave it another try, but that 30-day free supply didn't show up.

After about an hour on hold to cancel, I called on a different line as a new customer and someone picked up the phone within like 20 seconds, but expressed he had no authority to cancel my subscription.

Length of Use: 3–6 months

My cardiologist recommended that I use it rather than the omega fish oils that I was using. It may be as good or better. I am not in a position to judge. My cardiologist is very good and helped me through 2 heart surgeries so I 100% trust him. My review is more about the selling tactics and follow-up tactics than the product since I am neither a doctor or a nutritionist so I can't do a good job to judge the product.

My cardiologist said the product "may" help some shoulder-neck pain. He wanted me to take it for the heart benefits.

I received the product quickly. It was over-documented. They send expensive printing and even a CD. For fatty oils?

I bought a package of 2 containers. Since my doctor "prescribed it," I certainly already was going to reorder when the time came. What bothered me A LOT was on arrival they announced to me that I had agreed to automatic shipments and future charges to my credit card. I did not (intentionally) agree to that. It must have been buried in fine print IF IT WAS THERE AT ALL.

I phoned irritated and spoke with Andy. It should have been a quick phone call, but Andy was working to make me feel comfy. We talked about the weather for at least 5 minutes, and he expressed how happy he was to have learned something. He explained that I wouldn't want to be without the benefits of the oils even for a few days by mistake, so it's best to approve automatic reorders. I still said no. He agreed. He was marking my account for no more automatic renewals.

Then as closing, he said that he closed the account and there would be no automatic shipments. Therefore he picked a date in April and said that they would ship more on that date and charge my credit card.

Huh? Isn't that just what I said I did not want?

Finally, he agreed to cancel all automatic renewals.

By the way, the pills are MUCH smaller than the omega oil pills I had been taking. That is quite good (supposing that there is as much benefit to them) since they are easier to swallow and take up less space in my pill container. I have too many pills, so space was a problem.

Summary: I assume the product is good. I am outraged by the ethics and attitude of the marketing. Therefore I give the product 5 stars and the marketing 1 stars = an average of 3 stars.

At first I was skeptical - I don't like to waste money on just anything. I suffer from lower back pain, and it's difficult to sleep at times with that pain. At times the pain was so bad I had to walk slow when getting up from bed. My husband also suffers from back pain as well, and my 86-year-old mom uses a walker to get around, she walks slower than a turtle. But with Omega XL we noticed a drastic change. I no longer have painful lower back pain and get up fro bed much faster and move faster now. My husband has improved but still nags of minor pain in back but not as bad as before. My 86-year-old mom walks somewhat better and at a more increased movement. I like this product; I honestly believe it works.

I sympathize with any customers who this product hasn’t helped. I, fortunately, will never go without. As a hairdresser, my left hand, which is my working hand, has become numb and I lost much of my strength. Which directly affects my job, try to cut and wrap perms with a numb hand. I was willing to order this product based on their money back guarantee after 90 days. Whatever this pill contains has given me my career back. I was certain I would be having a carpal tunnel surgery. I no longer need surgery. I was certain I was fixed, and discontinued my membership. After two months, my symptoms returned. That will never happen again, I am down to 2 pills daily, and life is great!

I have had a lot of arthritic pain for about 10 years and it got worse as I get older. I am 57 now. I was hurting so bad a couple of months ago when the Larry King show came on talking about this product and I even though it costs higher than I would like, I gave it a try to see if it would help with my pain. I do not take pain pills. It took 2 months to kick in but my pain has improved about 80%. I plan to stay on this forever.

I was on vacation in T&T and I overheard on television doctors speaking about Omega XL and it can do for the body. The next day I went to port of Spain looking for the product but it was sold out by one pharmacy. The next day I went back to port of Spain and went to four different pharmacies selling the same product at different prices. I went to the last pharmacy call penny wise and bought the product. I took the product and the next day my body felt like I was 20 years old again. I walked all over port of Spain within two days and felt no pain. This product works and I will recommend this product to anyone suffering with joint pain. I'm not paid to say this but I highly recommend this product.

In January of 2015, I was experiencing so much pain (associated with inflammation in my spine), that no pain medication worked. I could barely perform my daily tasks, and sometimes I couldn't perform them at all. As a result, surgery on my spine was scheduled. Two rods and six screws would be implanted.

After watching an Omega XL infomercial, I decided to try. Well, I canceled the surgery, and two years later I have not once experienced the crucial pain I suffered with before.
