It's been 12 days since I placed my order.Before customer service stopped responding they said: "If you're checking on the status of your order, please note that our order processing time, especially this holiday season is 5 to 7 business days."8 business days have passed.The Shipping Policy section of the website explicitly states: "Rush processing expedites the fulfillment of your order so it can be verified, tailored to our Scentiment standards, quality checked, packaged, and shipped within 24 hours."Even with the holidays, it has been well over 24 hours since the order was placed. It has been well over 24 hours since money was taken out of my bank account. I was double charged for a service I specifically went out of my way to deselect before checkout and the service I was charged for without my consent wasn't even *********** the reply they also stated: "Regarding the rush order charges, I noticed that there were charges for it despite your intention to deselect it at checkout. While I'm unable to process refunds directly, I'll forward your issue to our billing department to have it reviewed. They will be in contact to further assist you with this charge.Meanwhile, I assure you that I'll follow up on the order status to see if I can get more updated shipping information for you."We're on day 5 without any sort of follow-up.Since my order hasn't even been processed yet I want a cancellation and a refund. I will initiate a chargeback if need be.Business Response

Hello *****,
Were truly sorry for the inconvenience youve experienced, and we want you to know that your concerns matter deeply to us. We understand how frustrating this situation has been, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know.
Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, there were unexpected delays in receiving stock from our manufacturer, which impacted the timely shipment of your order.
We understand how important it is to receive your orders on time, especially during this busy and festive time of year, and we deeply regret the inconvenience this situation has caused. Additionally, the surge in customer inquiries during this period has resulted in delays in responding to some of your messages, which is certainly not the level of service we strive to provide.
As of right now since there is a chargeback open and I am unable to process the refund.
When a chargeback is initiated the disputed funds are placed on hold and the case is reviewed by the payment processor. During this time, businesses cannot process a refund directly, as this could result in duplicate resolutionsone from the chargeback and one from a refund. Additionally, chargeback policies require the chargeback process to be completed before any further actions can be taken.
If you'd like to expedite the resolution, you may consider withdrawing the chargeback claim with your card issuer, allowing us to process a direct refund instead or accept the retention offer offered to you by an agent. Please let us know how you'd like to proceed, and well assist you further.
Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. This is certainly not the experience we aim to provide. Rest assured, we have resolved the underlying issue and are diligently working to catch up on all delayed shipments. Our team is committed to ensuring all our customers receive their products as quickly as possible and providing the excellent service you deserve.Sincerely,

12/6/24: I ordered a diffuser starter kit that included one scent and I added the diffuser cleaner the same day I received another email stating my package was packed and ready to ship. 12/14/24: I received an email stating that there was now a delay as there was an influx in orders and delays in receiving stock. I also spoke with someone who informed me that a shipment would be in that day or next and my order should be shipped out as it was expedited. 12/23/24: it took me FIVE times calling scentiment phone line to get someone to answer.. upon discussion I get the same explanation of theres a delay in receiving stock and no one can seem to tell me when it is to be expected or anything at all. I asked to be refunded my money as I have waited almost a month for these products and I no longer want them. I need my money back as I do not have the money to just wait around for something I never know ill come. They informed me since my order pending at the warehouse that they cant provide a refund for me at this time. it is extremely exhausting trying to get any help from scentiment and I want my money back. if not I am going to dispute it. they should be able to refund me.Business Response

I ordered 160 dollars worth of stuff haven't received anything. I contacted them via email.l and phone and nothing. There never was an invoice m, but they sent an email saying they are low in supplies. I want my money back. With their terrible reviews I saw after the fact how are they still in business. I have 5 kids and the oldest wanted this diffuser, this is alot of money for me I bought as a gift. Called their number always says they are closed. This isnt right for them to take advantage of people and give people the run around and using them for their hard earning money! When we are just trying to make Christmas nice for our family!!! I was never given a tracking number to even give you that! But they were fast to take my money.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: it was a Christmas gift and it didnt arrive until soooo late and I felt so embarrassed. I also felt so uneasy about the fact I never received an invoice! I have read so many reviews that it randomly stops working! I really thought it would be a good gift but from the beginning I felt this was a scam!

This company sells air diffusers with scents. I bought 5 scents on their website. No where on the shopping page does it say that I was subscribing to a monthly subscription of scents. The subscription info is hidden deep down in the legal section of their website. Without any notice or approval, they subscribed me to their subscription and charged my credit card the next month. It was then difficult to figure out how to cancel - though I did eventually but they are refusing to cancel the order even though it has not shipped.Business Response

I made an order from the company at the beginning of Dec. On the website it stated 3-5 day to ship the order. A few days after purchase, I received an email stating ship date would be delayed by 5 days. When this 5 days approached, I received another email stating ship date was delayed by 10 days. This was supposed to be a Christmas present so at this point this item is completely useless to me. I responded to the email and only received an ** response. I attempted to get human interaction but none received. A few days later I sent another email requesting for cancellation and the ** told me I could not cancel, again this is to be a Christmas present and this item is useless to me since I wont receive until after Christmas. Once again I requested human interaction and this time ** stated my request was sent to the appropriate department but still have not received a response. Initially I did my research on this company on the internet and it seemed like they had decent reviews, but after having issues I went to their ******** page and I would say ******************************************************************* no response from customer service and the company will not answer their phones.
