Dowbak change of location

Soo..I'm just finding out that my dear Dowbak is no longer at NEW LIFE! I called my bank in hopes of getting a refund. I really fell in love with his work. I also like Llorento work. However, my heart is with Dowkak! I am torn. Do I give them my $500 or do I follow Dowbak? Llorento had a death recently. Although I feel like every surgeon will eventually have a dead I'm confused. But only because of my $500 deposit. I just rather a refund so I can follow Dowbak! I am not equipped with the knowledge of how to get my refund and make it stick. Plenty banks give refunds then take it back.....

I am also in that same boat. I emailed my coordinator for my options. They basically are giving bbl specials so you can stay with New Life. However, if you want to go with Dr. Dowbak they will not refund you back the 500.00 but will credited to maybe another procedure

I see now Dowbak bailed on Seduction. Whew!!! Too much confusion following her at this time. And I dont want to be apart of it. I dont want to pay a deposit again and she moves. Another loss! So I've decided to go with Harry since. My Airbnb is paid.

Really uncomfortable with how Dowbak went to seduction, knew patients followed him then went back to new life. Its tooo much.

When Is your procedure and what did you decide to do? New doc?
November 25, 2018
My date is June 11th. I'm still paid in full at New Life so I may just stick it out. But if she moves again I'm not doing it and may reconsider. Too much back and forth, it doesnt seem like they have the patients best interest

Yea I thank God I only paid my deposit for that reason. I am in contact with Yipsys. She seems to be very caring. But then again they are always like that. I literally wont pay until it's time for the procedure. Do you have a recovery house set up? How long are you staying after the procedure? I have an Airbnb. I live 2hrs away from miami. I have a bestfriend of mines that will be with me. I plan on taking xxxtonic even after my procedure to keep thing flowing. Being that my family dont know I'm getting this done....

When did she go back to new Life

You can get the refund from the bank. You should explain that the charge is unauthorized, and made the payment for a specific doctor, and the doctor is no longer with that company. I had the same problem with 1500 deposit, and go my money back. You didn’t pay for the facility, you payed for the doctor! Make sure you able to communicate that to the bank. They did not tell you the doctor was no longer there when you put down the deposit. Don’t settle, if you want Dowbak, make sure you get her.

I've tried that. So did my cousin in the past. They give a refund...investigate ot and pull it back out. Cause a contract was signed. At least that's how it is with CHASE... however, I see Dowbak went to seduction and now went back to a sister center attached to new life. At this point theres too much drama with Dowbak

New quote

niknikster
My new quote is 5175. They didn't have any issue with changing my contract. YIPSYS is my coordinator. I removed the massages as planned. I know how it is with refunds and surgery centers...close to impossible. Instead I booked with Christina Diaz, who also help me finding my Airbnb for a beautiful price and great ratings.
