V Shred

I watched the video and was very interested in the right workout to do "10-15 minutes, 3x week". Even more, I was very excited about the magic-sounding carb cycling diet. I fully purchased everything and after spending 2 hours, which consisted of watching the video, ordering, then online with live chat for over an hour to make sure I was getting what I ordered and paying for and no more (all the marketing crap makes this very confusing), I took a look at what the package contained. The menus had absolutely no hint of carb cycling. The workouts were 18-19+ minutes AFTER a 4-minute warm-up 4 days of the week. I asked about the carb cycling and was told that's in the Advanced Diet you do AFTER 90 days! What BS. Why do I want to slug through all this for 90 days and not even do the most important part? Workouts and diets are a dime a dozen, even good ones. I immediately canceled and asked for a refund. My log-in account verifies my purchases but there is no order number so I cannot fill in the order number to further verify my review. I am awaiting my refund. What a scam!

As I said, a total rip-off. It’s not personalized and it’s based on just a few questions. Hard to contact them and impossible to get a refund.

Very disappointing.

Still taking my money when I’ve tried to cancel many times. Don’t trust them. They are impossible to contact, ignore your emails and the online submission form. They take your money every month even when I’ve begged them not to. If only I had a bank that was half decent I would cancel it on their end, but they are as bad as V Shred.

Length of Use: 6–12 months

They assure you the company is great and reliable, but it’s a complete scam and doesn’t allow you to just shop. They’re luring you in all this fabulous information and almost force you to buy things. You have to be someone that’s kinda smart to get out. They advertise and give you a great price, but that’s not the real price they’re gonna charge you. They’re a scam artist and need to be called out and shut down.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I signed up out of curiosity and fully expected to get my money back. I realized it was a mistake the day after I did it and sent multiple emails to try and get my money back. It has been a week and I have still not gotten a reply. I feel as if I’ve been scammed and ignored. This company takes advantage of people, and takes their money.

I purchase the V Shred workout program and nutrition plan on June 4th and requested it to be canceled and refunded on June 5th. The reason for the cancellation is because the workout program is not physiologically safe. I did further research to see if V Shred offered other alternatives, and I found many others with the same issue. I was not able to see the workouts before purchasing.

For the nutrition plan, they sell it as a custom plan that you can work with the coach and change as needed. I requested the service on a Saturday and canceled on a Sunday. The automated response from the coach via email states that they don't work weekends; therefore, per their policy, no work was performed. This is perfectly fine; however, when I requested my account to be canceled, the coach stated that they could not provide a refund for the nutrition plan. He then uploaded the plan in an apparent effort to say that the service was already provided. The value that the company sells is the custom plan. They sent me a standard plan after I canceled.

I’d give negative stars if I could. If you're lucky enough to read this before your purchase, DO NOT give them money! I thought I was smart and read some reviews before I purchased. But apparently, I am an idiot because I ignored all the negative ones and purchased the “90-Day Fat Loss Extreme” and a “Custom 4-week meal plan” anyway. I honestly figured people had buyer’s remorse and were just complaining.

I felt safe buying because they had a 30-day money-back guarantee if you’re not happy. Well, what they do not tell you is that only a select few things qualify for this return policy. The meal plan does not. Shame on me for not looking up the fine print.

Anyway, turns out V Shred customer service is the actual worst. I have sent four emails to date, first one was 8 days ago with no response. I did get an automated email saying they’d respond in about 24 hours...obviously, that hasn’t happened.

The “custom meal plan” is a joke. It’s supposed to be four weeks of content, but instead, they assigned me to a trainer who appears very young, who made a 7-day plan and stated it was to be repeated for the four weeks. PLUS, the 7-day plan was not complete. She left multiple snack options open for my choice. It also had zero reflection of being built off of my body type and lacked any explanation of why the macros were calculated the way they were. I honestly think it was a “plug and chug” plan that is basic at best.

The workout plan is nothing special either. Bugs out sometimes and often doesn’t mark when you’ve completed a workout. You do have the option of a body weight “follow along video” workout or “in gym” option. Quality and content were not high in my opinion.

I gave this company the benefit of a doubt and never write negative reviews. But I am hoping to save anyone and everyone from wasting their money on V Shred. It’s absolutely AWFUL.

- Takes money out via auto-shipments whether you agree to it or not.

- You may or may not get your products.

- Doesn't matter how many times you call, they don't stop till you change your bank info or put a stop at your bank.

- They've been debunked by professionals.

- Tons of poor reviews and complaints of a scam.

- Mel magazine for article.

- See YouTube for review videos done by professional bodybuilders and nutritionists.

- Has been going on for years, and now to me as well, unfortunately. When are they going to be held accountable? Something must be done!

- My petition is trying to get enough support to get Google/YouTube to ban this company so no more innocent hard-working individuals get scammed.

A 5.38 million dollar business and WE'RE getting scammed and that's just ok!? No! No more.

They are a scam. I tried canceling after the next day I signed up. They didn’t respond to my emails until I file a dispute with my bank! Even though they have a 30-day refund policy on the 90-day plan, they lied to my bank, stating saying that they don’t.

I signed up for the extreme weight-loss program but during the initial Zoom call, I was informed that the Accelerator Plus program would be a better fit. I was very clear that I am a severely disabled veteran from a helicopter crash and would need to speak to my trainer before I received exercises. I was told my trainer would contact me right away. Instead, I received a week-long PDF of exercises I cannot perform. The V Shred response was to tell me to try harder and give the program a better chance…as though I can do squats and lunges without a functioning leg if I just try harder!

I also received a week-long PDF meal plan. For $2300 that is it. The trainer did not further contact me until I requested cancellation, then the message she sent was blank. V Shred has refused to refund my money even though I have received no product at all. I have been crying every day because as a single mom and disabled veteran, I cannot afford several thousand dollars for a product I haven’t received. This is financially devastating. I am pursuing litigation, help from the media, and additional help through the ADA.

If you want a hard sales pitch for expensive and unnecessary supplements, V Shred it for you. It is the worst. Don't let them upsell you on a fitness coach, read the reviews. It is a scam and you will not get what you paid for. It is really sad companies like this exist to take advantage of people.
