I specifically started using pampers for the rewards program. Only for none of the rewards to work… I had 2 discount codes for Walmart and 2 for ******. None of them worked. Reached out via text and was corresponding via email. They told me I had used the codes which I did not and said they would supply a code as a one time curtesy only for that not to work either. And was then I was told I used that as well. I reached out to ****** spoke with a supervisor and they advised that one was canceled because I went back and added things to the order even though I had not submitted my order so the code was cancelled and the other 2 were never activated… how am I even suppose to use the “good gesture code” if it’s not active. I sent the correspondence to them only for them to claim they can’t get the screenshot when before they got the screenshot of everything else. I am a single mother so these codes mean great deal and puts me in a bind and to basically be told I’m lying about what I bought is astounding I even sent a screen shot of my orders of pampers from ****** where I had not bought pampers since 2022 for my niece. How is it possible for all the codes to not work! Then I get blamed fir itBusiness Response

I was sent email stating I had won a contest with promised prize. then I was sent another email stating they had "made a mistake" offered a small prize alternate. then sent another email offering coupons of $50 value. Never received the coupons. I feel I was cheated by company. So Therefore I wish to wish to receive the ORIGINAL prize I feel I was cheated out of. They should have NEVER sent anyone a email stating THEY WON -then backtracked on it! I feel this bad customer service in the highest form!Business Response

Proctor and Gamble continue to offer a moneyback guarantee so I purchased the product and I tried the product out and it works just as poorly as the cheap brands do and I have a new dishwasher. I obtained an application for a refund on this product online, printed it and mailed the original receipt and application to the address that was onthe form in the picture. I followed up several weeks later and the chase began and they bumped me from Person to Person to Person ultimately they’ve decided that my claim is now Too old to honour and refused my refund. This is not a fair deal, I followed all the rules and met all the requirements filed my claim on time. I am requesting that they honour their moneyback guarantee as they advertise again as I followed all the rules. Reading reviews on this company I find that they do not honour their commitments.
I have all the correspondence via email to many different representatives dating back to the original submission of my receipts and going forward till I wasjust most recently rejected for the refund in January 2025, and in that email they said that the program was now closed and There would be no refund, I do not accept that as an answer to something that was initiated seven months agoBusiness Response

Thank you for keeping in touch. We're concerned as the debit
card was officially shipped by the bank on 2/9/25 and while ******** Post has
been running a little behind since the strike, we would have expected it to
reach you by this time. Last confirmed with the bank, there was no usage on the
card. Please let us know if you would
like us to confirm there has still not been usage, if not, we can have the bank
cancel the original card (this will make it unusable) and ship a new one, in
the event the original is lost in the mail. We can also wait a bit longer if
you would like.
We look forward to hearing from you.Customer Answer

P & G all over TV bragging about buy Cascade dish washer detergent.
I decided to try their dish washer product.
“If you are not completely satisfied, your money cheerfully refunded by way of card”
I purchased Cascade, it was the worse detergent I’ve ever had.
Had to pull my dishes and re wash them all by hand. Disappointed
I filled out their forms & submitted within their deadline, this was July 5, 2024.
I kept copies of all my correspondence , my receipt, my envelope requesting my refund, everything.
I keep phoning their help line and they keep telling me we are looking into it.

The company, P & G has sent an email now indicating that they are sorry for my experience and offering a debit card for the amount owing, in the mail. They say it will take 7-10 days to arrive. IF THIS CARD DOES arrive with this value, then, I will be happy and look for closure. However, they have been putting off my request for SIX MONTHS so seeing, is believing. Please do not close this complaint yet. If this refund rebate is received, I am happy to contact BBB and let them know, and only then, I will ask for my complaint to be closed.

Received email from p&g on Jan. 22, 2025, stating they will send my rebate refund if $25.75 and I should receive it in 7-10 days.
Nothing has been received here.
jan. 22 was 20 days ago.
i believe I’m being very patient, however this company is not honouring their promises made on TV, that their Cascade will clean dishes, no re-washing.
not true. I’ve had to wash all my dishes by hand as their products is useless.

The card was requested 1/22/25 and usually processes within a few business days with the bank, however we did confirm with them it was not mailed until 1/31/25, we're sorry for the delay. We've also noticed that since the ******** postal strike, mailings have taken longer than normal, but we expect it should reach you anytime.

We appreciate your patience. As shared previously, our team does not have access to the promotions records, but given your report, we requested a refund be sent from our location. The bank that issues refunds on our behalf confirmed the card was mailed on 1/31/25 and the address we have on file is the same you provided to the Better Business Bureau. We know mail since the ******** strike is taking longer, where it previously may take up to three weeks, it now appears to be 4-5 weeks. The mailing was sent 5 weeks ago this coming Friday, 3/7/25. Again, we hope you called the bank providing the information share previously to verify the mailing date directly through them. If you've still not received the card and fear it may be lost in the mail, we can request the bank mail a new debit card, the original card would be void and the money transferred to a new card and mailed to you. Please let us know if you would like us to request a new card.
We look forward to hearing from you.

They have NOT mailed me any rebate/refund as promised on TV.The refund I asked for 8, yes Eight, MONTHS AGO.
This last comment from them, asking if I have called “the bank”, The bank that issues theirrefund/rebate cards, is ridiculous. As attached, there are approx 4844 different banks in USA. And it is NOT my responsibility to guess which one they use, nor is it my responsibility to call all 4844 banks to guess which does business with P&G.P&G continues to stall, and do absolutely nothing.
I WILL NEVER GO AWAY, I ASSURE YOU.Only once I receive my promised rebate/refund, will I ever quit chasing them.Their behaviour is despicable, dishonest and totally unconscionable.

That is breaking client confidentiality.
The responsibility lies on P& G to make good on their public promise to send a rebate/refund if their product does not work.P&G has not supplied me with their publicly promised rebate/refund.
i am NOT satisfied, no will I ever be satisfied until this refund arrives and I have cashed it.

I purchased 2 packs of Pampers swaddles a few months ago to prepare for my baby coming soon. I recently learned that these are made with pfa/pfoa and other harmful chemicals. Unfortunately it is past the return policy from the store i purchased them from. I am not comfortable using them. I reached out to p&g/pampers to ask if they offer a refund or voucher for a cleaner alternative product. However they have said they do not and are not willing to do anything about it. I don't understand how a company that stands behind their product wont offer a refund if a customer is not satisfied with it. I am asking for a refund for the 2 boxes, or if p&g makes a diaper without harmful chemicals, a voucher for those instead. I would gladly send these 2 boxes i have back to p&g.Business Response

To the Charmin Company:
Back in December I received an email in my inbox from '**********************' informing me that I had won the Charmin Super Mega Sweepstakes that I had entered earlier. However, I was later disappointed to receive a follow-up email titled "Oopsie, we made a poopsie," which indicated that the initial message was a mistake. Instead of the promised 18-pack of Charmin for the next 12 months, I was offered a $2.00 coupon as a consolation.
This unexpected and unfair reversal of what was promised earlier is upsetting, and it warrants a more reasonable resolution. I am writing to request that Charmin addresses this issue appropriately. I look forward to your prompt and fair response.

For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.They say the company will send something up to $50, they originally were going to send just a few coupons. I do not accept this. The email said I was one of the winners of the contest. I do expect the prize.Thank you,

My wife bought me a new Series 7 7171cc, wet & dry shave, Razor from Braun. It came with a 4 in 1 smart care center thing. This thing does not work at all!! I have contacted customer service they have given me the runaround and NONE of the troubleshooting they have tried has worked. I have tried to get a replacement and have GOTTEN NO WHERE! Very frustrated with the customer service from Braun. I feel like they took my money and ran. All I want is a new 4in1 smart care center with the darn cartridge so I can properly clean and lubricate the razor. I paid for them and they don't work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All i would like is for the 4 in 1 smart care thing to be replaced and Braun Clean & Renew Refill Cartridges, 6 Pack replaced. thank youBusiness Response

Thank you for contacting the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Braun.
We are very sorry to hear about your experience and your disappointment with our service, and for giving us the opportunity to explain. First, be assured, our products go through many quality checks to ensure they arrive and stay in the best possible condition, so we thank you for taking the time to let us know about this.
As you likely know, our shavers come with a two-year warranty from the date of purchase, so long as you have a copy of your receipt. We can see you chatted with us on 12/27, and we shared a link to our online check-in to start the warranty process. This allows you to print a free shipping label and get updates of your return. Once our service center receives your shaver and cleaning station, they will diagnose if the problem is only with the station or if it is with the shaver as well. From there, based on the issue, they will repair and/or replace parts to ensure your units work together as expected. The reason both the shaver and cleaning station are needed is because they are a paired unit. Again, the shaver is needed to ensure the devices work together correctly before we return them to you. Please view the link below to start the online check-in process to get a free shipping label so long as you’re within warranty.****************
Again, we are sorry for your experience and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.Their response is a joke? They want me to PAY to ship it back to get fixed?? Wow! This is the worst customer service I’ve ever received period! They should be ashamed! I use the razor every day so no I will not ship it back NOR will I PAY for shipping. It’s ok I’m going to start reviewing this razor and Braun on social media and let everyone know about this awful experience and the awful customer service I’ve received. This is a slap in the face period.
