Savanna Skin (savannaskin.com) sells tanning gummies and skincare supplements aimed at UK customers. It is widely reported that purchasing what appears to be a one-time item (typically around £19.95) silently enrolls customers in a recurring monthly subscription. Subsequent charges of £45 or more are commonly reported. Many customers state that cancellation requests are ignored and charges continue — often requiring a bank chargeback or card replacement to stop payments.
