Had to hit up GNC to grab some of the Rock's new energy drink ZOA. I was a little disappointed they…read moredid not have they full compliment of the product line in stock. They only had the 15 calorie sucralose sweetened drinks and none of the 100 calorie drinks. I really wanted to sample both since I have issues with certain types of sweeteners, so I'm going to have to try again. Guy at the store was super nice though and provided a lot of product info.

My wife and I walked into this specific GNC because a particular protein supplement caught my eye…read more Being military, we usually shop on base, but we decided it was convenient to get our products there and then. After about 10 minutes, we had about 5 different products ready to check out. Peter (Manager) was training a new employee (Desean) on the process of checking customers out. Our total came out to $170. At this point, Peter proceeds to tell us he is going to see what he could do to save us money and adds a promotional box of supplements that we never asked for or wanted. He asks for our membership phone number and address. After about 20 minutes of us standing at the counter being patient because he was "training" a new employee, our price was dropped to $129. Very surprised, I asked how that was possible to discount the price that much, as this has never happened when visiting another GNC before. He (Peter) begins to tell me that he credits his math major and being good with numbers (eye roll). Obviously happy with the price drop, he directs us to fill out a review for him and his trainee. Once completed, we thank him and leave the store feeling like we would most certainly be coming back for more shopping in the future. Fast forward to 2 hours later when my wife and I are home. She receives exactly 9 different emails from GNC. After opening all of them, we quickly realize and verify the fraudulent actions that Peter trained his new employee on. He signed us up for an autopay and delivery of the exact products that we bought today, 6 months from now, with my credit card information, without our consent. It was never discussed or told to us at all that we were signed up for anything. Buyers beware, if you give your GNC membership number when buying products, the same thing can happen to you! On the receipt, you can see the "order number" for each product that would have been charged and delivered 6 months from now. That is the only hint on the entire receipt that gives any indication of the future transactions. Luckily for us, we keep up with our emails and we're able to login and cancel the transactions. For others that may not keep up with their GNC emails, they wouldn't know until their cards are charged 6 months down the road. We called the store to inform Peter of our displeasure with him and his actions. He took no accountability with his lack of integrity. When I asked him why he didn't inform us of the future transaction, he told me "it would have taken too much time to explain that since so much time was spent getting you the discounts"....because we were in such a rush after we were willing to wait 20 minutes for him to train his new employee (sarcasm)... Shame on Peter, and shame on GNC for allowing this scammer to train its newest employees. These types of transactions are not only shady, but quite honestly infuriating. My wife and I shouldn't have to wonder if we got scammed into something while we shop at your stores. We will never be shopping at GNC again due to what Peter did today.
