  On November 2, 2020 I purchased an Oral B ****** * ******** Electric Toothbrush which has a 2 year warranty. I had problems with the battery and charging in general and sent it in to be repaired/replaced in September 2022. The toothbrush was returned to me without having the necessary repairs done, I was able to track the steps repair progress. It showed it was at the service center for exactly 12 minutes. It was incorrectly determined that no repair is needed, the repair report states "Tested through multiple cycles with the battery draining two percent each cycle, could not verify complaint. No fault found."
  At home the battery drained 8% every cycle and it would often run out of battery even though the toothbrush is put on the charger when not in use, so it should be impossible for it to run out of battery ever.
  As of today, November 7, and conveniently less than a week outside the warranty period the toothbrush stopped working all together even though it's fully charged.
  I've been a oral b customer for over 20 years, my kids have electric oral B toothbrushes which were a fraction of the cost and are over 5 years old. This iO-9 toothbrush was the most expensive toothbrush I've ever purchased ($ 299) and the only one I ever had issues with within 2 years and then completely dying after 2 years and 5 days. I've never experienced anything like that with any of my previous oral b electric toothbrushes.
  When I received the email survey about the repair I mentioned all these things but never heard anything back.
  I should get my toothbrush replaced or repaired as I have sent it in within the 2 year warranty but my repair claim was clearly not handled correctly. Now a new claim has been denied because I'm out of warranty.

  Thanks for reaching out to the
  Olay and the Better Business Bureau regarding your orders, we’re sorry to hear of
  your frustration.  We appreciate your
  loyalty to Olay and were happy to have this researched.  As you likely know, per the rules, orders via
  games are not eligible for return.  For
  your report, we did reach out to the game platform, and while they had no
  record of being contacted by you or receiving a ticket for missing game currency,
  but they confirmed that game currency had now been awarded. For ******* and ******* the points were
  awarded on 10/31/22 and for ******* they were awarded 11/4/22. We also confirmed
  that all three orders have shipped and should arrive any day if they haven’t
  already.

  
  Again, thank you for making us aware and kind regards.

  Thank you for reaching out to the Better
  Business Bureau (BBB) regarding Gillette.  In reviewing our records, we see a previous report to the BBB regarding
  a variety of P&G products.  Again, we’re
  sorry to hear of the many issues you’ve had with P&G products. We also see
  that we’ve had numerous other reports, on a variety of products, from your
  previous residence that have far exceeded what we feel is reasonable, we’re
  sorry but we cannot send additional compensation.

  Per the letters we have sent
  previously, you would need to return all affected product for evaluation and
  consideration of compensation. Other options are to buy the product at a
  retailer that will allow you to return it if it does not meet your needs. We
  understand that based on our criteria you may decide to no longer use our
  products, we respect if that is your decision and wish you and your family the
  best.

  
  Kind regards.

  I’ve used Bounty paper towels for years with no problems. Last week I purchased a 6=15 pack for 15.99 at ******* in ******* ****. They smells so strongly of chemicals upon opening the package that I tried airing them out in the sun for an hour with no improvement so I had to get rid of them.
  Thinking maybe it was an issue with a particular store, I purchased today a2=5 pack at ******* in ****** *or 5 .49. Same chemical smell propel as before.
  I contacted Proctor andGamble today and they declined a refund offering a coupon instead. I don’t need more paper towels that smell like chemicals that I have to throw away.
  Please provide a refund for the 15.99 and 5.49.
  Thank you

  On 9/30/2022 I purchased over $50.00 worth of eligible P & G products which as advertised in the ad paper as well as at the site of the product offered a $15 rebate. I’ve tried entering the info on the provided website three times, spoken to the rebate hotline technicians twice and tried sending an email to P & G’s overall customer service but I’m still unable to collect my rebate. Please help me in resolving this issue. Thank you very much.

  The question was why I didn’t accept the resolution PP&G offered but they didn’t offer a resolution, they said there was no rebate on Tide, which isn’t the case because they have ads in print as well as at the point of purchase, they have an actual hotline set up for this rebate, and I’ve spoken to representatives that have verified that the rebate exists. I’m not sure why they make this offer then make it so difficult to collect, I have my receipt if you need to see that as well.

As always, it is important to read the terms of any rebate as they all have different requirements and may have different participating brands.

  Requested $10 REFUND CHECK from Olay before coupon expiration date per retailer instructions. Declined another coupon from Olay because I had already spent $81.23 and could get another coupon anytime from the paper. Needed the $10 check. Went back and forth with Olay for a month. One day they kept me on hold for 1 hour & 26 minutes until I had to hang up! They refused to give info for Proctor & Gamble corporate office. Thereafter contacted Consumer Protection Council. Lady was getting contact date with Olay mixed up with their Complaint date so asked for a referral from them which was to BBB. Received documents back in the mail on 10/3 from Consumer Assistance Council. On the previous refund, Olay sent my personal info to ******* Bank who opened up a ** Debit Card for my refund. It is embossed with the 16 digits, expiration date and my name together with the Master card logo!!!!! Should they have done that, and is that legal? I had to call the bank to close that account after I used the refund as I was concerned credit reporting agencies would consider that debit card an open and then closed account on my record. Olay cannot explain to me why they would issue a $10 refund plus handing to the retailer, but not to me after putting me thru all of this. How do I reach the Proctor & Gamble Corporate Office directly (not customer service)? Current Olay case # is ********. Previous Olay case # was 17307610 which shows my refund. It only took about 5 minutes on the phone to give the coupon sku # and my information. I still have that debit card in my possession for your review, if needed. In addition, I have original coupon, if needed. Depending on who answers the phone, depends on the result! I am really concerned as to why they sent all my personal information to ******* Bank instead of keeping the information within the company and issuing my refund check. Should I contact the Division of Banking about their practice?

  

  Business Response

  Date: 10/05/2022

  Thanks for contacting
  the Better Business Bureau regarding Olay and we’re sorry for your
  disappointment.  In reviewing our records,
  we see where you contacted us in November of 2021 advising you were supposed to
  receive a coupon but didn’t.  Although we
  didn’t have a previous contact, as a gesture of goodwill we issued a $5 debit
  card to use towards a purchase instead of a coupon.  Although we generally do not send coupons or
  debit cards upon request, as a gesture of goodwill, we did do this.  Those cards are issued by the bank we use. Your
  most you advised that you purchased product from a retailer, and they told you
  to contact us for a coupon. That you had a coupon that expired the next day and
  we advised that had to be used at the retailer at the point of purchase, that
  we didn’t reimburse consumers for coupons. 
  
  Please know, we cannot
  force retailers to accept coupons, it is at their discretion and therefore,
  consumers must decide if they want to buy from a retailer that refused to take
  the coupon.  Our process is not to
  reimburse consumers for coupons they had hoped to use which appears to be the situation
  here.  We did as onetime goodwill gesture
  send the $5 prepaid debit card as mentioned but that was an exception.  We’re happy to send you a coupon to use on a
  future purchase at a retailer that accepts coupons but we do not have an offer
  currently where we reimburse you for part of your purchase.
  
  We hope you understand our
  polices and again, would be happy to send an actual coupon for a future
  purchase.
  
  Kind regards.

  The response from the person thinks I am looking for a coupon!  I have the ORIGINAL coupon, made the REQUIRED purchase and requested the $10 REFUND within the promotional window.  I need to contact Procter & Gamble, not Olay.  I need to speak with P&G to find out why there would be no problem refunding a retailer $10 plus handling but not a consumer. It is a P&G coupon that is offering the refund.  Olay is only a division of the company.   P&G needs to know that Olay kept me on hold for 1 hour and 26 Minutes one day while waiting to resolve this issue.  I finally had to hang up.  That is a LONG HOLD TIME and they knew that eventually I would hang up.  Who at P&G can I speak to regarding my "EARNED" refund?   I need to know who is responsible at P&G for fulfilling an advertised offer.  Again, I have never requested a coupon, only my entitled $10 refund.

  BBB:  If necessary, I can probably obtain the Agent for Service information thru the State Corporation Division if you need the Agent name, address and phone #, etc.  Please advise.

  Again, I request this issue be addressed thru the corporate office at P$G, NOT Olay.  Thank you for your assistance in this matter!

  We’re sorry for your continued disappointment and for the hold
  time you reported. We want to assure you that your Better Business Bureau report
  was sent to P&G and is being handled by an employee based at our Global
  Headquarters in Cincinnati Ohio. 
  

  As background, coupons are meant to be used at the point of
  purchase, so at the retailer when buying the product, this is typical usage for
  most coupons issued by manufacturers.  There
  are a variety of reason we generally do not refund consumers for coupons, which
  include but are not limited to cost and the general function of how coupons
  work. You see, there is a cost to issue debit cards, there is postage to send
  the cards, and the general costs of handling request from what could be
  hundreds of thousands of consumers submitting millions of coupons across our
  many brands.  These increased costs have
  the potential to increase the price of our products which would defeat the
  purchase of coupon savings.  The
  submission process by retailers works uniquely and avoids many of these
  additional costs.
  

  Again, we were happy to make a onetime goodwill exception for you
  in the past but to be consistent with our policies and fair to all consumers,
  we cannot make another exception.  Please
  know, it is important to use coupons as they are intended which for our
  coupons, is at the time and place of purchase.
  We respect that you may not agree with our coupon policies, decision,
  and understand if you would like to return the items with the receipt for the
  purchase of $81.23 that was reported.  Once received we would consider a refund for the purchase based on the
  amount of product left in the containers from the $81.23 purchase. If you elect
  to return the purchase to us, please use the following directive and
  address.  Please know we will not
  consider other purchases and again would base the refund based on the amount of
  Olay product in the containers.
  
  Carefully package and mail the product to us via a traceable method with a tracking number. We recommend you purchase insurance for the package in the event it's not received or what was shipped is different than what we receive.
  

  Include a copy of the purchase receipt, and on your packing slip include your case number provide case number written on it. Be sure your name and mailing address are present on the slip. 
  

  Include a copy of the postage receipt or make sure postage costs are clearly marked on the package. We will reimburse you for the postage. 
  

  Mail to:
  Alta P&G Team
  ATTN **** *- 2nd Floor
  120 N Commercial St

  Once we received the package, we will be in contact with you if there are any issues.
  Please know, it can take 2-4 weeks from the time received to process the return.

  Someone sent Complaint to Proctor & Gamble Corporate Office as I requested for review.  Waiting for reply.  Still need someone to explain to me why $10 reimbursement plus handling would be sent to a retailer to cover Proctor and Gamble coupon but won't refund me my "earned"  $10 refund check.  It is my understanding that as of 10/14/22 the Proctor & Gamble net worth is $296,83B but they can put all this time and effort into NOT honoring their own coupon!

  

  Business Response

  Date: 10/27/2022

  Again, we're very sorry you are disappointed in our P&G processes and policies for coupons.  As explained previously, coupons are expected to be redeemed at the place of purchase and not through the manufacturer.  As a onetime gesture of goodwill, we assisted previously but we will not make the exception again since we cannot do this for all consumers.  It is important when using coupons offered by any manufacturer to use them as intended, if you do not agree with the terms of use, we understand if you would not want to purchase our products.  

  We'd also like to address your concern on the debit card that was issued previously as a gesture of goodwill when the coupon was not used correctly.  P&G uses various external partners who are well vetted and trusted to assist us with parts of our business.  Any monetary compensation issued by our team, is done via prepaid debit card using a trusted bank; we cannot issue monetary compensate directly to consumers or in another way.  Please know the information is not used for any other purposes.

  Finally, although we will not issue a debit card per our coupon policies, as a gesture of goodwill, we are sending you a $20 off coupon to be used at the time of purchase at a local retailer near you, the coupon cannot be used online.  We hope you'll use this coupon at your favorite retailer  prior to expiration to save on a future purchase of Olay. Look for that to arrive in the next 14 business days.

  Kind regards.

  This is related to P&G Secret Aerosol Spray recall issue. Below is the link of mentioned recalled product
  https:*********************************
  
  I purchased their products and contacted P&G earlier this year, so in exchange they sent me "three" secret coupons each valued at $7.00 and coupons were valid till Sep 30 2022. But when I tried to use those coupons on CVS & Target they just "beep" and didn't apply to the product mentioned on the coupon.
  
  So on Sep 2, 2022 I reached out to their consumer support (Contact no. ###-###-####) and they asked me to "write VOID across the coupon, tear it in half and send the picture" through email. P&G Consumer reference number ******** and I was promised $21 physical gift card.
  
  I sent the picture as per their request and reached out again on Sep 9 2022 to get the status. I was told that a $21 physical gift card would be sent within 7-10 business days.
  
  I waited until Sep 26 2022 but haven't received anything in the mail, so again reached out to Consumer support and this time I was told a different story. I was told the coupon limit had exceeded and the gift card which was supposed to be sent is not approved.
  
  This is just an act of fooling customers as you can see because the first company sends coupons as replacement and those coupons don't work, so they ask to tear them off and send the screenshot and later just scam the customer.
  
  I wasted hours in the retail store to use coupons sent by P&G and even talking to their customer support and explaining the issue. I want equal compensation for the time wasted by P& consumer support team by providing wrong information to consumers.
  
  I have attached email communication from P&G and also the picture which they asked to tear the coupons.

  Thanks for reaching out to the Better Business Bureau and we’re
  sorry for your disappointment on our decision. As background, during the recall
  you requested more than 30 coupons, which exceeds what we feel is
  reasonable.  Some of these coupons were
  blocked from being mailed. Also, as a gesture of goodwill, we did already make
  an exception and replaced three Old Spice recall coupons with a prepaid debit
  card.  We’re sorry, but with the number
  of reports received, we would not be able to make a second exception.  If you have the proof of purchase for the all
  the products your household registered for with the recall, we would be happy
  to review and reconsider if anything additional can be sent.

  
  Kind regards.

  Better Business Bureau:
  
  
  
  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********* and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.
  

  What a pathetic response, why did you even asked me to tear the coupons when you just want to apologize.
