Once I submitted all required information, the system responded, with (Invalid e-mail address). Please help immediately, Nanette
I can not get the claim form link to show up, page is blank. What do i do now ?
I tried to file the claim , and have been unable to get the claim form to which I need to file on my purchase of Hydroxy , so whats the problem here.
I hope GNC keeps records of products puchased using their “rewards card” because that’s the only proof my husband and I have. Do they really expect us to have receipts from that far back?
