1 starHorrible company to work with order my device on 1/20/25 pay more for faster shipping and found out on 1/24/25 it wouldn't come tell 1/30/25. I order another device on 1/24/25 and got it the next day. I have try over and over again to return the item after I received it the following week. But they have refused to let me know how to return it. My note to anybody is don't deal with this company. I guess I am going to have to put a dispute with my credit card company. Also get the XP-22 SONIC BARK DETERRENTS from amazon for a 3rd of the price. My opinion is this is a scam company don't walk from this company run as fast as you can. ***** *******Barks No More

1 starCustomer Experience with Barks No More A Cautionary Tale In my quest to solve incessant barking, I purchased the "Barks No More" device, hoping it would provide relief. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to test its efficacy as I never opened the package. My initial attempt to buy just one unit a year ago was marred by their app doubling my order during checkout. I tried to cancel the extra order immediately, but it was unsuccessful. My efforts to get a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) began that evening, but I received no response. After some digging, I discovered their address in Wyoming on their website and sent both items back via signature delivery. Although the items were delivered and I had proof of receipt, I never heard back from them or received my refund. Adding to my frustration, ordering from them automatically added me to their contact list, leading to various product advertisements. They flooded my inbox despite my attempts to block and unsubscribe from their emails. One email claimed I had a $40 credit, which prompted me to give them another chance. I ordered another device, believing the credit would cover most of the cost, excluding some shipping fees. To my dismay, the credit covered nothing. This was just the start of numerous unmet promises. It took 16 emails over two months, most of which went unanswered, to finally receive the RMA. However, contrary to their promise, no shipping label was included. I paid for the shipping with a return receipt to ensure they received it. Eventually, I received a refund, heavily reduced by an exorbitant restocking fee and an unjustified shipping fee. Based on my experience, I strongly suggest anyone considering doing business with Barks No More delete their information and stay as far away from them as possible. BTW - I gave one star because I had to pick something.Barks No More

I read your policy on returning items and did see the "restocking fee" and "return shipping fee" BUT when you sent me the *** to return the item you did not include a shipping label for the return, I had to pay for that. You ripped my off for that fee.I think your business practices are some of the worse I have ever ran across, and I would strongly suggest to anyone thinking about purchasing anything from you to immediately close out the window they are looking at and get as far away from your site as possible. Since this all began, I have seen similar items several different places for less money than you are charging, but I don't know if their practices are any better than yours.Review fromHolly C

1 starThe product did not work. However when I sent it back, with it all neatly packaged, I noticed I never got my refund. I emailed and they said I could only use for credit against another product. Let me understand this ..the product didnt work but I was welcome to call back and buy another similar product that wouldnt work .. am I the only person who thinks that is a terrible policy. So, buyer beware. I did order another product from another company which has worked wonderfully. I would never buy from this company again.Barks No More

1 starThis is a rip off. When you order, which I never confirmed order but it went through anyway, they add all kinds of charges on to your order without your permission. I dont know if the product works because Im sending it back without opening it. It is going to cost $8.00 to return a item I never ordered in the first place. ******** customer service!!!Barks No More

We strive to be transparent with our offers, and we regret if this process wasnt as clear or if it led to any unintended charges on your account.
As for the return process, we want to confirm that we are also transparent with our return policy, which allows returns within a specified period for eligible products. If the item is unopened and returned in accordance with the guidelines, a refund will be processed. We understand that the return shipping cost of $8.00 can feel like an added inconvenience, and we apologize for any frustration this may cause.

1 starI purchased the double pack of the Barks No More and when I received them of course I opened one. Put the batteries in and nothing. Could barely here a beep. Tried calling the company with no answer. Sent an email and got response. Says their website indicates once the package is opened there is no refund. How would you know if it works if you don't open it. They make money right there on everybody. Then you get stuck with sending it back and I had to pay $5.90 to send the unopened one back. I also bought the insurance for $9.99 and they said that only covers the product to insure to you and I can't get that back even though I now have no product. They are making money right and left on a defective product and scamming people. I paid $76.00 total for two units and can't find out if the other one works or I can't get any refund at all. So here is what I might get back (unless they get me on something else that they can charge me for). Refund Breakdown:* Original Purchase Amount: $76.00 * Less: Used items amount: $14.99 * Less: Shipping: $5.42 * Less: Return Processing and Restocking Fee - $8.95 * Total Refund: $46.64 Then I had to pay $5.90 to ship the unopened unit back. That is not refunded back to me either but I have to pay the $5.42 shipping for them to ship to me product that they know doesn't work like advertised and they deduct that from my refund. This is false advertisement. PRODUCT DOES NOT FUNCTION AS ADVERTISED. How many people have to write these reviews before something can be done with this company?So for nothing they have made money. Really!! a restocking fee of $8.95 to put something back on a shelf. Give me a break. Think how many customers are losing money on this product and Barks No More will not let you return because, of course, people have to open to see if they work. What an innovative idea to make money!Barks No More

Regarding the return policy, we strive to be transparent with all of our customers about our guidelines, including our policy on opened items.

We do our best to clearly communicate these terms during the checkout process to avoid any confusion, though we recognize this may not always be as clear as we intend.Additionally, you mentioned shipping and restocking fees. These charges are applied according to our return policy and are part of our standard practice.

We truly apologize if this has caused additional frustration, and we are continuously working to ensure our policies are as transparent and customer-friendly as possible.
In regard to the insurance fee, we want to clarify that the insurance covers the product during shipping, but unfortunately, it does not cover a refund in cases where the product is returned.
