  Zendrop is extremely hard to communicate with I cancelled my service in January 2025 and have been charged $200 and never used their services and they are not considering a refund

  Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention.
  
  After thoroughly reviewing ***** ******* account and billing history, we would like to clarify the following:
  
  1. The account associated with this user was never downgraded or canceled through the proper process on our platform. Zendrop requires users to manually downgrade their subscription within their account settings to stop future billing, and there is no record of such a downgrade request in our system.
  
  2. Our Stripe payment processor records confirm that the subscription remained active and charges were applied correctly in accordance with the users agreed subscription terms.
  3. While a refund was requested, it was unfortunately not submitted within the 5-day refund window as outlined in our Terms of Service at the time of purchase.Because the subscription was active and the refund request fell outside of the eligible window, no refund is applicable in this case.
  
  We understand that billing matters can sometimes be confusing and are always happy to assist users with downgrading or canceling their accounts when contacted. We remain available to support ***** with any further account-related questions.
  
  Thank you for the opportunity to respond.

  encountered issue after issue while using their website and services. signed up for the free plan and they gave me ************************************* less than 2 hours. i was still in set up mode while that happened and i didnt even know i had it until it expired. i contacted them and they told me they would honor the credits but never did. so i signed up for plus plan because they convinced me and told me it would be better then i was told i was going to get 100 credits towards orders, agian never came... they say they have 24'7 support but i dont get an answer until early morning. i contacted support about both credit issues, told me im out of luck and to pay for another subscription to get the 100 credits. i told them i just want the one i WAS suppose to get, they told me to cancel then resign up. the other 20 credit is not available since i signed up for the plus plan which they coerced me to do in the first place. i got thrown around an around by this company.. they then charged my card for an order that i didnt even place. support fought me every step of the way. i had to call my bank and call fraud. completely unacceptable. stay away.

  We sincerely regret that ******* initially experienced issues with his onboarding credits and overall experience with Zendrop.
  
  We take customer feedback very seriously and made every effort to address and resolve his concerns.Upon reviewing the account and communication history, we can confirm that ******* was provided with the following resolutions:
  1. A complimentary upgrade to our Plus plan (valued at $549 annually) at no additional charge.
  2. $150 in order credits were added directly to his Zendrop account as a goodwill gesture, beyond the standard onboarding credits.
  3. Direct and prioritized support was provided to ensure his concerns were promptly addressed.
  
  Our team remained in communication throughout, and ******* confirmed via email that he was satisfied with the resolution provided.
  
  At this time, all agreed-upon credits and upgrades have been fulfilled, and no further outstanding actions remain on the account.
  
  We remain committed to continuously improving the Zendrop experience and appreciate ********* feedback, which helps us better serve all our users.
  Thank you for the opportunity to respond.

  Zendrop has charged me $49 both in January and February and I dont know why or how. I have ZERO products connected, I unsubscribed, I uninstalled zendrop from my store, AND erased record of my card information. After all of that, I am STILL getting charged. I have tried to reach out to get a a refund for both months and help on how to get zendrop to stop charging me, but I get a response from an AI bot to contact customer service. I try to chat what them, which is the only way available to talk to a real human, and I sit on the page for hours and nobody comes to help.

  I am adding the receipt and invoice that I had received after repeated follow **** I have not received my refund yet.scriptions with deceptive wording.When I reached out to their customer service, I was met with unhelpful, robotic responses that repeatedly stated they "must adhere to the policy," with no willingness to acknowledge their misleading advertising. Furthermore, Zendrop does not offer phone support, making it nearly impossible to have a real conversation about resolving the issue. Their lack of transparency and refusal to engage meaningfully with customers reflects a business model designed to extract payments unfairly rather than provide genuine value.I am requesting a full refund, as I did not use the service and was misled by Zendrops advertising. Additionally, I ask the BBB to take action in holding Zendrop accountable for their deceptive business practices.Thank you for your time and assistance in addressing this matter. I look forward to your response.Sincerely,**** *******

  Dear Better Business Bureau,
  
  We are reaching out in response to the complaint submitted by the user regarding their refund request for a Zendrop subscription. We would like to provide full context regarding this matter, as the complaint contains misrepresentations of Zendrops policies and customer interactions.
  
  1. Full Conversation Context & Conduct Toward Support Staff
  
  The customer has provided an incomplete version of the conversation in their complaint. To ensure full transparency, we have enclosed the entire conversation thread for review.
  Throughout this exchange, our support team remained professional, transparent, and responsive, addressing **** Justines inquiries multiple times. However, the customer repeatedly disregarded the explanations provided and used inappropriate language toward our team members, including accusations of scamming and personal attacks. Despite this, our representatives maintained professionalism and continued assisting them.
  
  2. Zendrops Refund Policy Clearly Stated at Signup
  
  Zendrops refund policy is not hidden and is publicly available in multiple locations:
  Refund, Replacement, and Return Policy: ****************************************************************************************************
  Terms and Conditions: *****************************************************************
  As outlined in our policy, refunds for subscription charges are only eligible if requested within five (5) days of the charge and if no order credits have been used. These terms are presented at the time of signup, and customers agree to them when subscribing. The complainants refund request was submitted 16 days after the charge, well beyond the refund eligibility window.
  
  3. No Evidence of Misleading Advertising
  
  **** ******* claims they were misled by Zendrops "cancel or downgrade anytime" phrasing. However, this does not mean that past payments are refundable at any timeit means that customers are not locked into long-term contracts and can prevent future charges by canceling. This is a standard subscription model used across various SaaS platforms.
  Additionally, Zendrop does not "trap" users into subscriptionswe provide clear refund policies upfront and allow users to manage their subscriptions freely from their account settings.
  
  4. No Denial of Service Subscription Was Active
  
  The complainant claims Zendrop did not provide a service and should issue a refund. However:
  a. Their subscription was active and fully functional during this period.
  b. They had full access to Zendrops tools, product sourcing, and fulfillment features.
  c. They made a voluntary decision not to use the service, which does not entitle them to a refund.
  
  Just like other subscription-based services (e.g., *******, SaaS platforms, and memberships), refunds are not issued simply because a customer chooses not to use the service.
  
  5. **************** & Escalation Requests
  
  Zendrops support team is available 24/7 via live chat and email, which ensures prompt responses. The complainant was repeatedly assisted by multiple agents, including a senior manager, and their request was escalated and reviewed by our billing team. The claim that Zendrop "refused to engage meaningfully" is inaccuratewe provided detailed responses, but the customer was unwilling to accept the policy.
  Furthermore, Zendrop does not offer phone support, which is clearly stated in our help center. Many online service providers prioritize chat and email support to provide efficient, documented responses.
  
  Final Position
  
  a. Customer's  refund request was made well beyond the stated refund eligibility period.
  b. Our policies were clearly disclosed at the time of subscription.
  c. Our team handled this request professionally, despite the customers inappropriate language.
  d. ********************** is committed to fair and transparent business practices.
  
  For these reasons, we stand by our refund policy and our decision to decline the refund request. However, we are happy to provide any additional information the BBB may require for further review.
  Thank you for your time and consideration.
  
  Best regards,
  Zendrop Team

  Dear Better Business Bureau,
  
  We are reaching out in response to the complaint submitted by the customer regarding their complaints about the usage of services from Zendrop. 
  
  We have searched for the associated email give in our system and were not able to locate this customer. We have shared the details and proof of the search results from our:

  c. Our Payment Gateway: Indicating that no transaction has happened between the user and **********************. 
  
  It might be that the user was mistaken and directed these funds to any other entity that is not Zendrop. Happy to clarify or provide further details if required. Thank you for your time and consideration.
  
  Best regards,
  Zendrop Team

  Our experience with Zendrop has been extremely disappointing and has severely impacted our small business. While they offer refunds when we need to refund customers (which is appreciated), this policy doesnt compensate for the overwhelming number of issues weve faced.Unhappy Customers: We've had a significant number of orders returned to sender due to Zendrop's failure to meet delivery deadlines, resulting in refunds for nearly a third of our orders.Incompetent Support: Their customer service is slow, often incompetent, and rarely helpful. Resolving issues requires constant follow-ups, leaving us frustrated and without timely answers.Lack of Communication: Zendrop provides no proactive updates on order statuses, delays, or issues. We only learn about problems when we take the initiative to reach out, which is a constant annoyance and wastes valuable time.Sudden Price Increases: Products have seen sudden, unexplained cost hikes, making it difficult to maintain profit margins or offer competitive pricing.Constant Refunds: While refunds are a plus, it's not a real advantage when their fulfillment failures make them necessary so often.Zendrops selection, especially with U.S.-based suppliers, is limited, and their products are overpriced, with unreasonably high shipping costs. The lack of variety and inflated pricing makes it nearly impossible to deliver value to customers. For a platform that promises convenience and quality, Zendrop falls far short of expectations.Their unreliable fulfillment, poor communication, and service failures have cost us money and eroded customer trust. As a small business, this has been devastating. We cannot recommend Zendrop and are transitioning to a new supplier to prevent further damage to our brand.
