  When I did the online refund process there was an error on the site when making the label. I contacted customer service who sent me a label and a reference number and told me to contact them when it was delivered to manually process the refund. The item was returned and delivered to them 7/14/2025. I have since been ignored by email at the customer service email, and also unable to reach anyone via live chat to help. They have the items back - but now I can't get the refund processed.

  Dear BBB Team,
  
  Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.
  
  First and foremost, we sincerely apologize to the customer for the delay in response and for the inconvenience this issue has caused. Due to an overwhelming response to our recent sale, our customer service team has been managing a high volume of inquiries, which unfortunately led to delays in certain cases, including this one.
  
  Upon review, we found that the customer had successfully returned the item, which was delivered to our facility on July 14, 2025. We acknowledge that the refund was not processed in a timely manner as originally promised, and we deeply regret the oversight.
  
  As of today, the refund has been fully processed. We have also reached out to the customer directly to confirm the refund details and have offered an additional gift card as a gesture of apology for the experience. We are currently awaiting a response from the customer regarding the gift card.
  
  We appreciate the customer's patience and thank them for the opportunity to resolve this. We are committed to improving our internal processes to prevent such delays moving forward.
  
  Warm regards,
  Sand Cloud Team

  I ordered a Checkmate Party Blanket and Border Classic Stripe Poncho in Natural. After waiting over a week for the items to ship, only one of the items (Party Blanket) made it to me. The package was open so I assumed someone had stolen the poncho and left the blanket. After reading some comments on the BBB, I'm not sure the poncho ever made it into the package. There was no packing slip in the package. I've reached out to customer support via the email every day since Friday 7/18 and have received no reply or acknowledgment. I even called the number they have on their accessibility page on their website, and the voicemail box said they do not take calls.

  I placed an order on July 6th. The order has been confirmed with no updates. I have reached out to the business 4 separate times via email and left a message on their number for an order update. I have not heard back from the business and have requested at this time to cancel my order and provide a full refund.

  Dear BBB,
  
  Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention.
  
  We sincerely apologize for the delay and the lack of communication the customer experienced after placing their order on July 6th. The delay occurred during an exceptionally busy sale period, and while that explains the cause, we fully understand how frustrating this experience must have been for the customer.
  
  Upon receiving this ******************** complaint, we immediately retrieved the customers ticket and contacted them directly via email. Weve provided the current status of the order, assured them of our continued support, and are keeping a close follow-up to ensure the order is delivered successfully.
  
  In an effort to make this right, we have also offered a partial refund as a gesture of goodwill and compensation for the inconvenience. We are currently awaiting the customers response to finalize the resolution.
  
  Please rest assured that we are treating this matter with high priority and are committed to a satisfactory outcome.
  
  Thank you.

  I ordered 2 sets of 6 black waffle weave wash cloths. I only received one set of wash cloths and mistakenly received a set of shirt/shorts. I submitted information to their company through their website to have my order corrected, but I have received no response.

  Dear BBB Team,
  
  Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
  
  We sincerely apologize to the customer for the experience they had with their recent order.
  
  We thoroughly checked our communication system and could not locate any prior emails or inquiries from the customer under the email addresses provided in the BBB complaint. It's possible that there was a misrouting or the message came through an alternate channel we werent able to trace.
  
  To resolve the issue promptly, we have sent an email directly to the customer offering two clear options:
  
  A replacement shipment of the missing 6-pack washcloth bundle, or
  
  A full refund for the missing item.
  
  We are now awaiting their response so we can proceed with their preferred resolution.
  
  We are committed to making this right and will ensure the matter is resolved to the customer's satisfaction as soon as we hear back from them.
  
  Thank you

  I placed an order directly with this company from the website on 06/08/2025. After a 14-day shipping time the order arrived and was missing items. I attempted to communicate with the company 3 times via email with zero response. I also tried their customer service shat bot with no help. There are no contact numbers to actually talk to a human.

  Hi Team,
  
  Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
  We sincerely apologize for the delay in our response to the customers original inquiry. Due to the high volume of messages, we received during our recent sale, weve been working diligently to catch up and assist each customer as quickly as possible.
  Upon reviewing our records, we see that the customer reached out to us on June 23, 2025, regarding a missing item, the Whale Shark XL Turquoise, from their order placed on June 8, 2025. We responded on June 25, offering either a refund or a reshipment. The customer confirmed they preferred a reshipment, and we immediately created a new order (Order #*******) to fulfill the missing item.
  The replacement was shipped promptly, and tracking confirms it was delivered on June 27, 2025. We also extended a 20% off discount code as a gesture of goodwill for the inconvenience caused.
  We hope the issue is now fully resolved, but if the customer requires any further assistance, were more than happy to help.
  
  Thank you,
  Sand Cloud

  I purchased a set of 4 Sand Cloud beach towels from a store in ******* called *************. Each towel was $46. These towels were clearly advertised by Sand Cloud and on a ******** of the four towels was noted to have a defect on it within 5 minutes of the first use of the towel. The store I bought it from will not give refunds or exchanges on items without the original tag/packaging. You cant open the towel without removing the outer sleeve. I contact Sand Cloud with photos of the towel and the receipt of purchase. They told me they will not do anything because I didnt purchase directly from them. I am happy to return the towel for a replacement or get a refund.

  Hi Team,
  
  As mentioned, the customer contacted us on April 8 regarding a damaged product that was purchased directly from our storenot from any of our Flagship locations. As such, we were unable to initiate a return or exchange through our usual channels. We advised the customer to reach out to the reseller from whom the purchase was made.
  However, understanding the inconvenience and disappointment the customer experienced, we decided to step in and assist. We requested photos and the necessary documentation to explore an alternative resolution. The customer promptly provided all the requested materials.
  We then offered the customer a choice between a replacement or a gift card, and they opted for the replacement. A prepaid return label was issued to facilitate the return, with the understanding that we would proceed with sending the replacement once the return was dropped off.
  Weve since received a confirmation from the customer (on April 14) that the return has been dropped off. We are actively following up on this case and will ensure that the replacement is sent promptly to the address specified by the customer.
  
  Thank you

  Hi Team,
  On November 15, the customer reached out regarding an address change for an order placed with us. We promptly updated the address and confirmed the change with the customer. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, the package was still shipped to the incorrect address, likely due to a technical glitch at the warehouse or with the carrier.
  When the customer informed us of this, we verified the issue and acknowledged that the address had not been updated. We sincerely apologized for the inconvenience and offered the customer two options:
  A full refund to the original payment method.
  A reshipment (exchange), as the original item had since gone out of stock, to the correct address.
  The package was delivered to the incorrect address, but we still extended the full refund offer without requiring the items to be returned. However, the customer later informed us that their original payment method could not be used for the refund as it had been hacked.
  To accommodate this, we proposed issuing the refund in the form of a gift card. The customer declined both options and later informed us that they could retrieve the package from a friend at the incorrect address but requested a $20 refund to cover the shipping cost for collecting it.
  We agreed to this request and offered a $20 refund, which can also be added to the proposed gift card refund if needed. The ticket remains open, and we are actively working to resolve the issue. We have requested the customer to respond to our email thread so we can finalize a solution.
  Our current offer includes issuing a gift card refund for the full order amount, including shipping, totaling $100, without requiring the return of the items. This was offered as the customer indicated their payment method was compromised.
  Additionally, the customer's claim of $200 cannot be validated, as this issue pertains to only one order. However, we are willing to investigate further if necessary.
  Thank you for your support in resolving this matter.

  I placed an order with this website and was given another 30% off coupon if I signed up for emails, etc. I tried to call the company after I did not receive the coupon code. They said they had a glitch in their system and they were sorry they couldn't give me the additional discount. I think that is wrong. Did I want to proceed with my order? I did choose to go ahead and proceed with my order since I spent a lot of time on it, but in order to get free shipping. again, I would have to spend a tremendous amount of money which I don't have as 100% disabled veteran and first responder recovering from hurricane damage myself I think it's poor business practices and I'm sorry that their marketing firm had a glitch but that's their fault. That's not my fault. I doubt many customers have brought this up to them. They should stand behind what I was promised and go after their marketing company for the extra money it's the holidays. I'm 100% disabled vet. This is very hurtful. They're supposed to stay behind the environment and help people and just to say it was a glitch so sorry is just poor business practices.

  I purchased ****** bath towels, hand towels and washcloths online on June 27, 2024 for $100.31. The towels were defective as they shed dark blue lint everywhere even after repeatedly soaking and washing the towels per the companys instruction. **************** refused to honor their promise of 100% Happiness Guaranteed and offered me a store credit for less than half of what I paid for these ******* I would like a full refund to my credit card for the ****** ******* Its disappointing that I have to go through the BBB to address this, but Sand Clouds customer experience pushes back on customer issues and doesnt seem to care about customer satisfaction.

  Hi Team,
  
  The customer contacted us regarding the above-mentioned damaged issue on 24 August 2024. In response to that, we requested the customer to help us with the picture of the products showing the damage (it was required for our documentation purposes). Customer responded on 26 August and provided us with the picture. As a remedy of the lint issue raised, we suggested certain washing techniques. Customer replied informing us that these washing instructions were properly followed, however the issue is still there. We apologize to the customer and request to confirm if all the products have this issue, also informed regarding the expiration of the return period for this product. The customer responded and helped us with the product's details.
  
  Since the return window had expired, as an alternative option to the refund back to the original payment method, we offered our gift card worth $46.87. The customer informed us that she doesn't prefer that. As a better option, we offered Gift card worth $93.75 or the refund for the same amount back to the original payment method as a onetime exception to our policy.
  The customer preferred a full refund of $100.31 to the credit card (this amount is the full amount including tax). We considered the customers preference and refunded the amount ($100.31) back to the original payment method. Considering the issue as resolved, we closed the ticket on 28 August 2024.
  
  
  Thank you.
