Purchaseing Soyfee Online

I just wanted to put this out there so that others who are looking for gluten and caffeine free alternatives to coffee don't get taken advantage of like I did. Back in November of 2010 I was vigorously looking for an alternative to coffee, and since I had just given up gluten in October it had to be gluten-free as well. I found, through my many searches, Soyfee the soy bean coffee alternative. They had amaretto, vanilla and hazelnut flavours. It is all natural and organic too. Sounds great right? I placed my order, paid through Paypal. The payment was posted to my Visa on November 8th 2010, and to date (February 16, 2011) I have not received any product. I ordered 3 packs which cost me $46.00 CAN.

I have tried contacting Soyfee but the only way to communicate with them is through the e-mail contact on the website. Needless to say, there has been no response. I have tried to contact Paypal as well to see if they could help me, since they are supposed to protect the consumer from disreputable companies like this, but have had no response from them either. Has anyone else outh there ordered from Soyfee and actually received the product? I feel VERY taken advantage of and ripped off. I hope this saves others from making the same mistake. DON'T TRUST SOYFEE COFFEE TO DELIVER!!!

You should be able to recover your money via Paypal--there is a complaint process when you log in.

Take care,

Scott

You may be past the time limit for Paypal but do check. If you used your Visa contact your credit card company today and let them know what happened. They should be able to credit your card.

Thank you both for the advice. I tried both avenues and ultimately it was VISA that got my account credited. Issue resolved, thanks again.

      Healthy Gluten Free Foods low sugar that you found?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      I noticed eating gluten-free or CGF foods have higher sugar and sodium some. No added sugar protein bars I found better with plant fiber. I wanted to know what are you go to besides whole fruits/veggies that you find are healthy for you where you can feel eating normal without hurting yourself or health. I was looking into subscription based like Thrift to see if there is something that is healthier CGF that can make me feel normal. Thanks

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By trents · Posted

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!
