      Complaint Type:
      Delivery Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      I ordered $157 worth of books and there was no tracking, nothing for DAYS. I called customer service and requested a refund which she said she did. No refund so i call back and was told that instead of refunding me, that they instead sent them out, which i told them not to do, because she said that the delivery could take up to 8 weeks, which is absurd! She insisted that she put a refund through, and not to worry. LIES! So now, instead of refunding me, my credit card statement shows that yet again, a few days later, they charge me another $157!! I am beyond furious! I do not want your books that take EIGHT WEEKS to get here, like i told the woman originally, i want a refund for both charges of $157 refunded to my discover card. What a bunch of crooks!

      Management unwilling to resolve my dispute about a fee that doesn't show on my bank records. To save my valuable time I paid the $15 fee. Purchase made in early 2023, still dealing with it on June 2023. Negative, energy draining experience.
