WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!
“Sold out” of two items i ordered and told me they would send replacements. Hardly replied to any of my emails, took weeks to come even though it should only take a few days from Syd to Byron. Didnt send me one of the items i ordered. Sent me different branded items to what they told me they would send as replacements. Have not even heard back from them regarding them missing one of my products. Do not have anything positive about my experience.

Better to give your money to charity
My doctor recommended a specific product for me. I Googled it and found it listed on the Megavitamins website. I ordered five bottles of the product.
Megavitamins (aka Healthy Care Living Pty Ltd and Healthyday Vitamins) sent me 3 bottles of another item I didn't order and said the others were on their way. Those others never arrived.
I returned the unwanted items by tracked mail and asked for a refund.
I am almost $200 out-of-pocket and still waiting to see my money.
How do we get the credit cards to close this operation down?

Quick Delivery
After ordering Natrol melatonin from this store, I read the reviews on this site. I was horrified to see it had such a bad rating and thought, oh well, there goes my money. However - I ordered these pills last Sunday, received both an email and text message on Monday to say they had the order ready to send and it has just arrived this morning - Friday. I live in North Queensland so that's excellent considering the time frame during Covid-19. The pills are as described, have not tried them as yet, but all I can say is that my experience with this company has been great.

DIDN’T RECEIVE MY ORDER
I ordered 1 bottle of Goli last June 11 and I still haven’t received my order. When I emailed the first time they said they don’t have any stock available. I’ve been so patient and tried to email again twice my email have been left unanswered. Good thing I only bought 1 bottle. This is nothing but a SCAM. Total waste of money.

You’ll be sent a completely different product to what you ordered
I used megavitamins after my usual supplement supplier was out of stock of my usual brand of ginseng. Bad idea. They sent a totally different brand and claimed it was an error. I then read the reviews and it turns out they do this almost ever time. Save yourself a lot of hassle. Don’t use this company at any cost.

Purchased vitamins for pre conception wrong vitamins arrived refund was provided over a month after several complaints
Completely unsatisfied, wrong vitamins arrived and no communication was answered by the company.
Most products were duplicates of each other under different names and pictures
Everytime you would search for something you would get sent back to the home page.

Do not buy from them!
I ordered 6 bottles of Fab Iron, and a toothbrush ... total $144.84 AUD. They contacted me to tell me that they were out of Fab Iron, but they could supply a different brand. I said I did not want any other brand, and to issue me a refund. They said they would do so. A few days later, I receive a package from them with 6 bottles of the different brand! Emails go back and forth ... sometimes there is no reply for several days, and I have to resend the email ... finally, I get a partial refund. They still owe me $11.82, and I am hanging in there to get that back, too. It was their error, why should I be out any money at all?! Terrible, terrible customer service.

Scammer
I purchased two products from this site. One was delivered and the other they changed out the product I ordered and provided a MUCH cheaper alternative. They then lied and said I ordered that cheaper product (and the site won’t give you an itemised receipt). This site needs to be shut down. I’ve reported them to ASIC and Consumer Affairs. This is a scam!

Product exactly what I ordered and came in a reasonable amount of time
There are few places I can find a specific supplement for a medical issue I have (CDP-Choline, Neuro issue) I ordered the product then after a few days checked online and saw all the really bad reviews. It was confusing as they have multiple trading names which was a red flag to me (Healthyday and MegaVitamins) I panicked and asked paypal for a refund thinking I'd been ripped off. About a week after ordering I received a notification from Aus Post saying my package was on its way. I received the package and it was exactly the right brand and p...
Read moreroduct I ordered. Took about 12 days from making payment to get to Melbourne from NSW, this is during Covid19 so this is fine. I am happy with product and will use again. Another reviewer on here suggested another company, but they are American and show prices in USD, so they aren't actually cheaper than these guys.- Verified
Save yourself the money and shop at iherb instead
Items costed three times the amount compared to iherb, took a week for them to process the order and another week for shipping. Save yourself time and money and go elsewhere

Should have checked reviews before buying!
Ah no! Should have checked before I bought. Five days ago I ordered some items, Melatonin and a thermogenic and despite calling, emailing, leaving a message via their website and Facebook page I have still not received any response. I should have read the reviews first!

Same old story (I should have read the reviews first)
Ordered 2kg of dog supplement and received 700g of a different product.Contacted company and was told “out of stock “, no other explanation. I returned the goods and after belatedly checking reviews of this company went direct to PayPal for a refund which I received promptly.Thank you PayPal.
This company is at best incompetent but appears to be engaged in less than acceptable business practices.

Wrong product, terrible customer service
I ordered 2 box of 100 tablets of wheat grass. When the package arrived I only had received 1 box of 120 tablets I emailed them stating this mistake they responded stated they had run out of my other order and decided to give me a more expensive brand which was a higher MG. I replied stating the MG was exactly the same and now I’m short 80 and I also asked why I wasn’t contacted by anyone to let known they had run out ect they just sent me 80 tablets less and expected that I would be fine with it, I also stated that I live in a rural town where...
Read more you can’t purchase this vitamin and I’m now 80 tablets lets short which is a massive inconvenience, I asked to make this matter right can you plz send me the other 80 tablets or so that I ordered, they replied in an email that they would reimburse me the difference and sent me $7 back. I will never use this company again their are an absolute joke, they could not get it through their thick heads that my issue was about the money but about the quantity of what I ordered and their lack of communication for their error.- 4 reviews

WORST company ever!!
I ordered over $114 worth of goods. One of the products I received was not the brand I ordered and I was never informed of the switch in products nor refunded the difference in price as they sent me a cheaper brand. I had to hound them to get a refund of the difference in price. I’m absolutely disgusted in their unprofessional approach to customers. I have a good mind to report them to the ACCC for false advertising as when I ordered the product they replaced there was stock available and they are still advertising there is still stock, instead they sent me a different brand.

Sent me the incorrect item
I ordered Nature's Sunshine, Raspberry Leaf 90 capsules from them. When I received my parcel it was the incorrect brand - Herbs of Gold, Raspberry Leaf 60 capsules. I was not notified that they didn't have the product I wanted in stock. I paid $29.84 for the capsules & they sent me a different brand with less capsules & it is $23.12. When I called he asked me how do I want them to fix this. I asked them to send me a bag so I can post back for a refund. He insisted on contacting their supplier to find out when they could get more of the product ...
Read moreI was after. I told him no I don't have time to wait as I needed to start taking them now. I would like to send back for a full refund. I would be quicker for me to purchase from someone who did have the item in stock. He wouldn't take no for an answer, so out of frustration I hung on on him. Do not buy from these people.- 2 reviews

Wrong product sent and no express
I was sent the wrong product and after following up with them I've not heard from them.
Also, this is the 2nd time I paid for express post but it wasn't sent express post. It took a week for them to even post it all standard post. Once again, I followed up requesting a refund for the additional express post costs and have seen no action.

Products are not sent once paid for
I ordered just shy of 10 products from this company without checking any reviews, which obviously I won't do again. Five days passed and the products had not been shipped. I emailed to check on the status of the order and was advised that the products would be shipped the next day. The next day came and went. No email or any confirmation was sent that the order had been shipped. I emailed them three days later to ask again if the products had been shipped. I received no response. Two weeks passed. I emailed again asking what the issue was with...
Read more the order. No response. I emailed again the next day and asked for a refund due to the products not being sent and their failure to communicate with me. Unsurprisingly, I didn't received a response. As I had paid for the order using PayPal, I then lodged a dispute against them. A refund was issued within three days, which indicates to me that PayPal are aware of the issues in dealing with this business. Suspiciously, when I tried to open the PDF receipt sent to me for this order, the items ordered were not listed. Instead, the PDF receipt read, "A PDF cannot be generated as the account is inactive". As you can see at the top of this page, ieatwords have even warned people that a number of positive reviews for this business are suspected to be fraudulent. Unsurprising given the way this business operates, and considering my personal experience with them. Needless to say, I would not recommend doing business with this company.- 5 reviews

Company cannot deliver for ordered goods - AVOID!!!
Ordered Nutspread 3 weeks ago, response after 2 weeks that the product is not available, requested a refund days ago, no communication. Will lodge a PayPal claim now. Avoid this company, very poor customer service, ineffective, slow and poor communication via email. My suggestion: AVOID!!!!!!

Do not buy for this company its a scam!
3 weeks of waiting for my order to arrive and no tracking sent I decided to email the company, no reply so I decided to make a PayPal claim, then the same hour as I made the claim (no surprises there) I get an email from a lady telling me that the product is not available however it was available enough for me to be able to make a purchase and for them to take my money with no follow up! This company is a massive scam and in my opinion needs to be shut down, please do not buy from this company they will take your money not deliver what you purchased and only contact you once you make a claim

Megavitamins / Healthy Care Living Pty Ltd - not at all trustworthy
Their website contains misleading information, their communication is poor, their packing is substandard, their service is slow, and I did not get what I paid for. I have asked for a partial refund (as I received 60 capsules instead of 120, which I paid for) but have not heard back, and I will be lodging a complaint with the ACCC. I recently got an automatic email from them asking for feedback on my purchase. I've chosen to provide my feedback here, on an independent review site. Wished that I'd read the other reviews of this company before using them.
