      I despise the anonymity of emails and the Internet, which gives these kinds of "businesses" an advantage. I am receiving 2 emails a day from this company. I never provided them with my email address or with permission to spam me. They allegedly provide an "unsubscribe" link in the image at the bottom of each email and it doesn't work. They claim I can unsubscribe by sending the a postcard. Why do I have to spend money and time doing this? If I'm going to spend money, I am going to go visit them in person. They are about 20 minutes from me. Stop Watt **************************************** ************

      I purchased two StopWatt in an effort to reduce my power bill (senior citizen). Just plugged them and one doesnt work at all. Since purchasing them I have learned that purchasers say they do not reduce their bills after weeks/months of use. I cannot afford to waste $117 on unusable/workable items. Would like full refund,

      To whom it may concern,

          We regret any confusion that may have taken place when **************************** attempted to order our product. When the customer attempted to place the order on our site we did not receive the complete address or phone number. There was no payment information entered in the system either. I would encourage *************************** to contact her financial institution and track down the merchant by the descriptor on the payment.
