On November 26, 2022, I visited my friend's website, who is a Plexus Ambassador, to purchase some products I have been interested in trying. She had talked with me and helped me decide what to purchase. The order came to $216.67. I made certain I was still on her website before completing the purchase however, the order was credited to a gentleman I do not know. I immediately contacted customer service and was told to complete a request to change ambassadors. Upon submitting this. I received an email indicating it could take up to 2 days to review. I waited 10 days before reaching out again. This time I was told it was a compliance issue and I would simply have to wait. Meanwhile, the order arrived. I decided to request a refund, return the product, and be done with this. Refunds also require approval. I was forced to agree to pay shipping. The form can't be submitted without doing this. Upon submitting the form, I was once again told it could take up to 2 days to review. It is now 15 days after my purchase with no response. This is ridiculous and very poor customer service! I have no desire to ever deal with this company again. I would like a full refund of $216.67 plus I would like Plexus to pay to return the unopened box to them and I would like my account closed completely to avoid any surprises. This could have been avoided had the company fixed their mistake within 2 days as they said they would.

To Whom it May ******** Plexus appreciates the opportunity to resolve the complainants request and apologizes for the delayed response. As of 12/19/2022 the complainant has been refunded for order number ********** in the amount of $216.67. There is no need to return any of the items received. We have researched this situation as it appeared to not have routed to the appropriate department. We would like to offer our sincere apology to the account holder. If they are wanting to be moved to the correct sponsor we would be happy to oblige. Again, we appreciate the opportunity to resolve this request. The account holder should see their refund within 5-7 business days depending on their financial institution. They can email ************************************* if they are wanting their account completely closed at this time.

Someone from this company has attempted to use my credit card to make a purchase and I do not have any subscriptions with this company and this is the second time this has happened and I want to file a complaint because I have nothing to do with Plexus Worldwide. I am so tired of companies and employees trying to make purchases that are fraudulent.
Business response

To Whom it may concern;
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to this complaint. We can confirm the complainant created a Plexus Brand Ambassador account in August 2018. An attempt to process their annual membership fee with the payment information on file, as outlined in their membership agreement, would take place annually on their enrollment anniversary date.
We can confirm these attempts have not been successful, so not payment was collected.
We have removed all payment information and terminated this account, stopping all reoccurring order attempts in the future.
If we can be of any future assistance please let us know.

Purchased the welcome pack through this crooked company back at the end of February. As per their 60 day money back guarantee policy, I am eligible for a refund being I have until April 24th to send the products back and be eligible for a refund. Spoke with someone this morning and was told I was not eligible for refund. AGAIN, I have not had the products for 60 days and I AM ELGIBLE FOR THE REFUND PER THEIR POLICY. They are REFUSING to REFUND ME. I will be calling my attorney TODAY if the refund is not given and this fraudulent money thieving company will have a lawsuit on their hands. So tired of businesses thinking they can go against their policies that they come up with, unfortunately I WILL NOT allow them to run me over and steal my hard earned money when their s***** products obviously didnt work.

To Whom it may concern;
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to this complaint. We are sorry to hear the complainant was not satisfied with their experience.
A full refund of $99.39 was processed on 3/15/2022. Please allow 5-7 business days for the funds to appear back to the original payment method.
We have reviewed the communication between the compliant and our customer service team, establishing the following timeline.
The complainant originally contacted Plexus on March 8th, with a request to cancel their subscription orders. A response from the Plexus **************** team was submitted the same day, notifying the compliant that their subscription order was cancelled. On March 9th the complainant emailed customer service requesting a refund. ******************** customer service responded within 12 hours, providing them a link to the refund request form: https://plexus.formstack.com/forms/refund.
The completed refund request form was returned 4 days later on March 14th, at which time out team begun processing the request. As their product refund was processed a follow up email was sent to the complainant in an effort to identify any product concerns we should be aware of and to identify if they wish to cancel their membership (which would determine if a additional refund of $2.22 for their account membership needed to be processed) . The consumer responded, "Im not filling anything else out. I fill out several already and nothing is being done. I want a refund. Ive dealing with this since last week. I want a refund as soon as possible. You are giving me no choice but to turn you in to the better business bureau."We are sorry for any confusion and appreciate the opportunity to correct this matter.
Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

I was charged for a for a Subscription that I had canceled and plexes worldwide is refusing to give me all of my money of a $145.79. I have spoke with them and they are claiming that since I tried to dispute the charge through PayPal they they will only give me all the money minus $25 for a dispute fee. I have asked for legal documents stating where there is a $25 fee they are unable to give me that document at this time all they have given me was just an email from the refund department saying that there will be a $25 fee but no legal document stating that. All I want from this is my $145.79 refund back to my bank account.

I tried out this Companys product and was not satisfied with it and they have like. 60 Day guarantee that we will be reimbursed our monies. So the next month they took the ****** dollars out and when I realized it that's when I contacted them which was Aug 30th. The couldn't refund my debit cars because it was shut down do to fraudulent activity so my bank denied it, that was September 7th. I was told a check would be sent me in mid September which would take 3 weeks for processing (which is unheard of these days) so I was very nice and said ok! Until the point that I realize that I more than likely wont be receiving my $249.00 refund. So that's when I contacted them again. The manager Rio said that they have processed everything in a reasonable time frame and if that is the case I would have my check by now. Since I gave them to October 15th to received my check at my house and I didn't as of today, I'm hoping I'll get some resolution by reporting them to your guys!

To Whom It may concern;
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to this complaint. We are very sorry to hear the consumer was unsatisfied with their Plexus experience. Often when a refund is issued back to a card that has been cancelled or an account that has been closed, the bank will have the ability to redirected those funds to the new account. Unfortunately, it was identified that the banking institution would not be able to do this and on for the consumer and so on September 10th a request was submitted to our accounts payable department, requesting a physical check be mailed to the consumer. Once the physical check request was submitted, it goes through an approval process (to verify the request is valid and the amount is accurate) and then the customer's contact information needs to be setup and verified in the accounting system, so that the check can be "cut".
At this time a physical check was mailed out on October 15th, 2021, and we have closed the consumers account, stopping all future transactions.
If we can be of any further assistance please let us know.
