    I was looking online for fall decor for hours and ******** upon this brand's website. The products they advertised looked great, especially for the price. However, some of the photos started to look similar to ones I had seen on other sites. I reverse image searched multiple of their listed products using their advertised photos, and found the *original* products from different sellers. It seems this company has made it a regular practice of stealing product photos from other established businesses and trying to pass them off as their own. Luckily, I caught this before I completed my order and wasted hundreds of dollars on fake, flimsy, falsely advertised products. For example: original product advertised on ****************** (*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** )Fake product advertised on Nearly Natural using R&F's photos: (********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** )

    Very disappointed with what I received. I have an 82 inch olive tree that O ordered a year ago. The 2 olive trees that I recently ordered have fake painted branches. Even the pictures do not display the trees to look like this. Peeling paint thats slopped over the tree. Completely disappointed that this company thought that its ok to deceive customers. I told everyone that visited my home about the 82 inch for the holidays only to receive 2 more with POOR QUALITY! I will retract my feelings about what I thought this company represented.

    Hello *******,

     

    Thank you for contacting Nearly Natural, we apologize for the inconvenience.

    Usually you would submit a return or replacement request from our returns online portal: *************************************************************************;

    If you have a specific question about quality or if you would like to share feedback on a defective item you can always send us images to ****************************************** 

    When we have images we can share the feedback with our quality control team, and if you would like a replacement tree we can request from quality control to inspect it prior to sending the tree to make sure it's in optimal state.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    when I reached out to the company THEY DID NOT request photos to check quality. They wanted me to specifically return the item or exchange. I have purchased trees in the past and the branches were all natural and not painted / plastic. Very disappointed.

    I placed an order last week and was provided a code of COOL to receive 30 percent off my order. This discount has NOT been applied after at least 6 separate e mails to this company. I contacted my Bank, I now have a case against Nearly Natural for my 30 per cent discount. I have screen shots of e mails. Now I am being told until I drop the case they will NOT give me my discount. I am NOT dropping the case since I feel I cant trust them to give me the discount. Order ****** *********************.

    Hello BBB,

     

    Unfortunately the customer forgot to apply the discount code to her order, for us to be able to refund her we will need her to remove the dispute with her bank, as we mentioned to the customer.

    I am rejecting this response because: I have recontacted my bank and they have advised me NOT to remove my dispute since Nearly Natural has not acted on refunding my 30 percent discount to my original method of payment. 
    I did apply the COOL discount code on my initial attempt to order and as soon as I received the confirmation of my order and did not see the COOL discount code applied, I immediately e mailed Nearly Natural. 
    I continued to try to contact them, I have at least 12 e mails to them ( by the way I have NOT even received my order yet!). I can provide all 12 e mails as proof of trying to contact them with no response.

    Hello,
     
     

    Please keep in mind it may take 1 - 3 business days for processing, and 7 - 8 business days for shipping. Your order has been handed to the post office as we mentioned on the tracking details and it's expected to arrive in the next 72 hours.
    ****************************************************************************************************;
     
    We kindly ask you to remove the dispute with your bank so we can apply the discount to your order, unfortunately the dispute doesn't allow us to refund you as we have mentioned in previous communication. 
     
    Please let us know once the dispute has been removed so we can apply the refund you have requested. 
     
    Best regards,

    I am rejecting this response because: I have contacted my Bank and they have advised me NOT to remind my dispute to do so would not be in my best interest. 
    Nearly Natural could have saved them and me by complying with their advertised offer before it was escalated to this . 
    I do not trust them to give the discount at this point when they could have already done so. 
    I am steadfast in my position. I am not removing the dispute.

    I received a damaged item from the company on 12/18/2022. They were terrible to deal with and didnt want to refund me right away. I called twice and was out on hold and never given a resolution. I sent the item back via ***** and they did not refund me the shipping and tax for a damaged item that they sent, but luckily I got my money back for the item. That seems illegal to charge a person shipping and taxes for broken merchandise that they sent a customer. I informed them that I will be reporting them to the BBB and they have ignored me and my requests for a refund. This company is criminal. As a mother of two babies, I don't have time to continually call and ask for my money back. I am doing this for a refund and out of principal because this company is hoping that people are too busy to fight for their money back and they will continue to scam people through not responding and making it hard to get a refund. They should be shut down or fined.
