Based on 8 reviews
Decent but pricey products
The products are decent quality but definitely on the expensive side. I did see some moderate success, but nowhere near the big promises they made during sign-up. Overall, a mixed bag for me after about a year.
Lost All My Savings
My upline was completely unhelpful, only pushing me to buy more inventory. The market is saturated, and it was impossible to sell anything. Trying to cancel my subscription was a nightmare.
Impossible to cancel autoship
It was incredibly hard to cancel my account. The autoship charges kept hitting my card for months. I lost money and the whole thing felt like a scam.
So-so experience overall
I had a so-so experience with the MLM. Products were good but costly, and it took a lot of effort to make a little cash. Decent for side income but don’t expect miracles.
Personal Growth
I love the freedom to work from anywhere and the high-quality products. It's a fantastic opportunity for personal growth.
Hard to get out
Once you're in POLA, it's incredibly hard to get out. They make it difficult to cancel subscriptions and memberships, and the pressure to stay is immense. A truly negative experience.
Upline was useless
My upline was completely unhelpful once I signed up. I was left to figure everything out on my own. I felt constant pressure to recruit new members, which made me uncomfortable and strained my relationships. The upline was only interested in recruiting, not actually helping me sell.
Impossible to cancel autoship
It was incredibly hard to cancel my account. The autoship charges kept hitting my card for months. I lost money and the whole thing felt like a scam.
