Comment: I am very disappointed for two reasons I did not receive the bee hotels I ordered And the quality of the ones I received. It is hard for me to believe that they were constructed at the facility in NC and looking more like a cheap knock off. A refund to my bank account is what is needed an exchange is out of the question. I suspect this is an affront a fraudulent company tricking customers into buying this item in a premise of high quality made in the USA in NC it is false advertising I should have vetted your company better shame on me and shame on you for the falsehood.

Online Purchase - shopvertilabs

The ad was for Life Principles Bible by Charles F. Stanley. It's supposed to be a study Bible that references passages throughout the Bible to facilitate understanding of the prophecy. It claimed to be a full-sized Bible intended to assist in reading the entire Bible in 365 days. The offer was buy 2 for $59.95, get 2 free, plus $4.99 shipping. I placed my order on March 13. After placing the order over a month went by and nothing delivered. Tracking indicated the order was coming from China. After many emails was told tracking showed my shipment was still in transit, emailed again, told give it longet. Tracking updated to delivered on April 18th. It was not, every email id get the run around. Was told to check the tracking with carrier, it was on them now. After checking USPS, It says tracking not available for this item, or tracking number invalid. Item doesn’t include tracking. So, still have not received my purchase. So, Im basically out of my money and the Bibles of all things! ??

Counterfeit Product - Online Retail Scam

I ordered 3 Charles F. Stanley Life Principles Bibles on Facebook. One was for a LARGE PRINT EDITION NKJV for $30. The other two were for the New American Standard Bibles. It was a few months ago. Today I got a very small package in the mail in flimsy plastic that was ripped open and had some torn pages on. The “Large print” Bible stopped at Deuteronomy 4:11 and the other 2 stopped at Deuteronomy 3:24! They are really cheap paperbacks books like you would get for free as an example for advertisements! The “large print” is the same as the other two books and it is very very small print.

I googled carpet cleaners and clicked “call” on Stanley steamers google face page. Someone answered saying “carpet cleaning,” and I made an appointment for the next day for a rug and sectional couch to be cleaned. The technician arrived in an unmarked white truck with a cover on the trunk. He was not wearing a uniform or name tag. He wrote me a generic receipt beforehand quoting 360$ with a 10$ credit card fee. I accepted and let him do the cleaning while I was in the backyard to be out of the way. He finished very quickly and everything looked exactly the same just wet. The rug still had debris on the surface and he did not move it to get all areas of the rug. He also went in and out of my house while cleaning without wearing booties, leaving dirty shoe prints on my floors and presumably making the rug dirty again. He left quickly and I did not say anything because I am a small woman and I was alone with my baby, and he was a big guy. I called the number on the receipt to speak to a manager and the receptionist said they weren’t in. So I tried again the next day, same answer. Someone eventually called me and asked what happened. They told me to text a picture of the receipt to ?+1 (828) 222-0569? and I said I wanted a refund. They text back that they have a no refund policy. I asked where it said that because it didn’t on the receipt, and I couldn’t find a website. They did not respond. I googled the phone number and it came back with United Carpet Cleaning on yelp with the same experiences. I contacted the credit card company to dispute the charge since once it was no longer pending, I couldn’t get ahold of the “company” anymore.

Counterfeit Product - Craftfolk

Craftfolk-bogus site that makes you think that you are going to receive an artisans product, because the Artist is closing down their business. Made to look as though its an artist that lives in the US. I purchased June's, (artist name) bird nesting heart. Supposedly hand crafted and has real llama fur in it for the birds to make a soft natural birds nest. The heart i received has man made materials in it. It arrived in a box from China. I tried get a refund but i would have to send it back to Hong Kong. I also saw the item sent on TEMU for $5.00. I paid $35.00. The return address is: Level 7, World Trust Tower, 50 Stanley Central HongKong

Online Purchase - Trans Globe Freight Shipping Express / Pet Transport

Where do I begin? We, my husband and I were grieving our cat Aria who passed over rainbow bridge signifying the loss of six cats through cancer and age. This was huge emotional trauma. On Facebook, I connected with [email protected] They said they had two female kittens and sent videos and still shots of kittens. I did look at many other Siamese and Maine coon catteries but this one, STANLEY BRATSON PARKER gave a Kansas address doable for pickup by car. No mention of transport was given until purchase $900.00 by Apple gift Cards was forced on me. That large amount of money was hard for two senior citizens to pay. Then came all the fees for kittens and “I need money for their food”, etc ALSO, I paid $300.00 for wife to Book three hotel stays!! Fees in general included Microchips Insurances Quarantines Nannies Food Taxes Refundable insurance paid by cash upon delivery More Quarantine More food More nannies Injections etc All was paid through some form of gift card and they refused to write receipts for most transactions OR Outline fees in advance All fees were hurry hurry hurry or else-type threats with the “or else” ending up another fee.
