Sorry, is this being paid to FBOs by Forever Living?

FL are introducing an ‘FBO Support Fee’ to help pay for ‘rising operational costs’ of £2.50 a month.

Desperate times! on the FBO only Facebook page bots are falling over themselves to comment how great it is that they can support FL back.

bloody hell my flab is ghasted, spinning that A Small Contribution That Supports Your Business, NO FL it Supports Your Business, are people really that gulible? what next bend over for an aloe enema to flush your soul? FL must be absolutely desperate for cash I can't believe how brazen this cash grab is.

So bots are having to pay yet more to FLP when they already pay over the odds for products, for all the expenses involved, for their own training etc etc? Now they have to pay another fee?

Not so long ago the bots were all invited to admire the shiny new office and told it was a beacon of FLP’s success. Scamaloupolis stood up at the UK HQ launch and said ‘we are growing as a company’. After all that do none of them smell a rat? Why does the expanding successful UK company need a £2.50 sub now? SURELY some of them must be asking questions???

Apparently not. I’m keeping an eye on the post but 10 bots have given it a heart or thumbs up and one bot claims it be ‘sensible’ and how it helps them to feel included Confused

Spongebobette · 31/05/2025 07:51

Cult-like reaction

definitelynotabot · 31/05/2025 08:17

Wowee -and I bet that increases soon. They will get everyone used to paying it, then gradually hike it up.
Is that for all fbos regardless of size of business? If so, what a barmy move. It will put people off, surely. They are running low on new joiners as it is...

I hope the MLM Law of Reaction is having a day off, otherwise we’ll be bumbarded (sic) with posts about bots flushing their souls out of their arseholes.

Speaking of matters lavatorial and embarrassing spaces, I see Yawn spent the Bank Holiday decorating her indoor boot room botpotty! She really is the Hyacinth Bucket of MLMs, although there’s barely enough room for a pony in the boot room botpotty.

@Botpotty I love your username! Wherever did you get it from? 😉

At least Yawn's Bot Potty was free to spend a penny. FL want £2.50 to flush you out.

I can't believe as well it's £15 to attend the FL Skincare masterclass to "Level up your skincare knowledge and boost your business". Then you've to Usuccessful Day to fork out for and yet they still want to fleece them 2.50 subs.

I'm no HR or tax expert and I appreciate FL taking the fee from the FBO at source from from their bonus / commission guarantees FL will receive it, but can it be legal? surely the FBO has earn't that money and this isn't a payment that should be split into another stream for subs I can't believe this cash grab can work unilaterally worldwide, we all have different laws and I'm sure this should be charged separately like a membership.

I know I'm waffling but apart from it being hilarious that FL are desperate for cash I get the feeling it's really dodgy.

Wintersgirl · 31/05/2025 18:36

I see the patch company accounts are overdue....tut tut

YouOKHun · 31/05/2025 19:07

@WintersgirlI will be amazed if the Herby Patch Company is still in existence in a few month’s time. I think they know it’s already over and are flogging patches any way they can. It is all so inevitable.

The £2.50 charge is worldwide or just the UK @Botpotty? I haven’t seen FLP’s post about it. I assumed it was just a punishment for UK bots. Why not put up the prices of your products? Oh silly me, not enough people are buying them anyway, much easier to tax your customer bots direct. It is an odd thing to do that’s for sure.

It's a worldwide charge @YouOKHun They'll spin it as yet another investment in your 'own' business.

Well, times are hard.
The gunk ain't selling as well as it used to, so they need to find another way to rinse.

The Manor still ain't selling either! Maybe FL USA were inspired by Trump's tarrifs.

Anyone who consistently feels the need to post ridiculous pictures of gaudy shit they cannot afford to buy, constantly post memes and crappy affirmations needs to get a job

Botpotty · 01/06/2025 20:31

Yawn has proclaimed she is supported by an amazing team! That would be grifter lying in court coach and ex flp techiebot. I also won't be taking her up on her freebie as I already have an ancient body and I am wise enough not to fall for her nonsense.

Botpotty · 01/06/2025 20:53

Struckoff Bot is in my bad books again, a networking pal of hers recommends her amongst others "to help you with the legal side of things and to make sure you really want to finish it" Struckoff doesn't ask her to amend her post (as she is not allowed to provide legal advice) and comments thanking her for an amazing post. I shall add this to my file and report to the Law Society to add weight with my other posts.

This isn't a witch-hunt against Struckoff she can fill her boots as a D coach and earn her living, but i'm not standing for the dishonest continual fraud. You would have thought a four and a half year prison sentence would have been deterrent.

Spongebobette · 02/06/2025 11:08

She was a solicitor, married to a dentist, both high income professions

yet both of them falsified records and broke the law

what a pair

YouOKHun · 02/06/2025 11:55

@Spongebobette what a pair indeed. She can’t blame coercion from the DH for her dishonesty as her prison sentence was her own doing in her own professional environment and nothing to do with her moonlighting as a dental nurse and “losing” patient records in her garden shed. Now she has a record and has a big footprint in the local media I can see it’s hard to move on but her direction of travel seems to be dishonest albeit in a slightly more watered down way. Claims of a teaching qualification, dodgy professional membership, lack of correction of people’s incorrect assumptions and Yawn’s claims she was a top lawyer and choosing to slide into coaching as a suitably vague cover. Why not name the teaching qualification? Why not immediately and clearly correct assumptions? Why not consciously avoid the iffy low rent bot coaching world?

I do wonder what she hopes to gain from Yawn. I’m sure she is just clever enough to see that Yawn has nothing to offer other than what looks like a following of gullible potential customers. She has broadened her offering from divorce to any conflict perhaps seeing Yawn herself as a perfect customer, always in conflict with some toxic troll. I suspect we are going to see a collaboration offering gaslighting, a formulaic website package to ensure you’re lost in the crowd and iffy back door legal advice whenever someone ends up in a conflict situation (when someone tells a customer of the collaboration to fuck off and stick their hobby job were the sun doesn’t shine).

I’ve now seen the video about the FLP $3/£2.50 a month stupidity tax as some countries are now sharing the fat controller’s video telling them how lucky they are to be part of a company that only charges them $3 a month o that they can pauper themselves. What a joke.
