I purchased an item in January of 2023. I wanted to return the items but I was told I had to pay for shipping to two separate return locations, the shipping costs were nearly what I paid for the items, so I decided to just keep it. I left a review of my experience on ****** and it has appeared to have been deleted. Then I was contacted about a month later saying they sent me extra product, and I had to return it. I threw the items away and no longer had them so I had no idea if they sent me extra or not. Then, they charged me again for the mistake they made, which was apparently sending me extra product. I would like to be refunded for what they charged me for the mistake they made. I also DO NOT want this company having my credit card information in their possession. I feel they are deleting negative/honest ****** reviews. This company does not have the best interest of customers in mind.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:The business made a mistake by claiming they sent me extra product, and then asked me to pay for the mistake they made, by charging me TWICE for the entire product, not just the extra they sent me. I asked them to send me a copy of their policy where it states if they make a mistake the customer must pay for it to which they did not respond. I do not believe such policy exists, because of this they have stolen money from me by charging me without my consent. I have never had something like this happen as a consumer, and I would like to protect others from having this happen to them.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:MyKnobs.com claim they sent me extra product by mistake. This was their fault, not mine. Several weeks later, they asked me to return the extra product they accidentally sent me. I didn't even realize they sent me extra. This was a mistake on behalf of the business, not me. I have asked several times for a copy of the return policy that states if the business accidentally sends extra product, the customer must pay for it or they will have to return it. They have not sent me a copy of their return policy that states that. I am still waiting. Additionally, they tried to charge me again for not only the extra product they sent, but for the full amount of the product I bought. This is theft. I have already disputed this charge from ****, and it has been credited to me, but I stand by my complaint the business made a mistake, not me, then stole from me and charged me not only for the extra product they sent, but the product I bought. I am still waiting for a legal document from them that states they can do this to customers IF THEY MAKE A MISTAKE.

I ordered a right handed door lever, toilet paper holder, towel hooks, and door pulls on 11/30/22. I have reached out to the company because I never received my order in mid December. They said it was delivered, but I have a camera installed at my front door and there was no record of delivery to my address. I reached out again before the holidays on the chat and they said I should be refunded, but yet my bank showed no such thing. Today 2/20/23 I reached out again because I was charged a total of $360.87 for items I have not received. After researching my order, there was an incorrect address listed. The company told me it was delivered to the correct address according to the order. They said I was not eligible for a refund because it was delivered to the correct address, even though it was not delivered to my address, which was what I entered on the order originally, and somehow it was changed. The customer service team keeps telling me they will pass on the information to the team, who is the team? I would like a refund for items I purchased adn never received. I keep getting the run around with this company. My address is ********************************************************* and the Address the items were delivered to was **********************************************************.Business Response

On the website it says "No restocking fee". I was charged a 25% restocking fee for my return. When I called the representative told me I have to click on where it says "No Restocking Fee" to pull up the return policy. In addition, I sent back another item and it was never credited back to me.Business Response

I purchased k**** and pulls on 9/4 and returned them on 9/27 through **** I did have the tracking info but somehow it got lost when I traded vehicles in October. *** contacted *** but they said they did not have the tracking number, they could see where and when I shipped them but could not provide me with the tracking number it is just a *** store not a hub. The girl who waited on me even remembered me and said she could see where it went out on 9/27 but told me to call the 800# for *** to get the tracking but when I did they said I had to get it from the store. Its just a back and forth with them. But the packages were sent via **** I have contacted myknobs several times and they still say that the place they told me to send it to is saying they havent received it. But I know they are not checking really. They had me send it to two different addresses w/2 different RA numbers. I have kept all the emails from them. I also contacted my bank about the charge and then not giving me my money back after I paid almost $27 to return the items.Business Response

Please recognize that our warehouse has not received the returned merchandise to date. We are unable to assist in locating your package without a valid return tracking number, the package must have been lost in transit since it was shipped back on September 27 almost 2 months ago. ******* store is responsible to supply you with a *** tracking number once a package is in their possession. You may be able to retrieve reimbursement for your lost packages if proper insurance was placed on the return package. Unfortunately, we are unable to issue a refund for merchandise that has not been returned to our facility. We truly apologize for the inconvenience and wish we could be of more assistance.Initial Complaint

I placed an order at myknobs.com for 4 sets of door hardware (two with keyless entry, and 2 normal door levers). When the packages arrived I had 4 normal door levers, and no keyless entry door levers. I sent a ticket to let myknobs.com know they had messed up my order (I tried calling but couldn't get through to anyone). After a few days I received a response to my ticket; Myknobs let me know they had sent me incorrect items, and they apologized for the error (this order in total was over $1,800+ in door knobs). I let them know I needed the 2 keyless entry door handles that I ordered which I paid for ($575+ each), they let me know that they are now out of stock and that I needed to return the incorrect products that we're valued at less than half of the product cost that I actually ordered. Myknobs sent me a ***** label and at my inconvenience I drove to town to send back all of the items to receive a FULL refund. I was told I would receive my full refund in 5-7 business days. After 20 days of waiting for my refund I got an updated ticket stating the items returned were damaged, and they would not be sending me my refund of over $1,800.00! The box with handles was mailed back just as I received it, whatever happened in shipping is out of my control. I would have never needed to mail products back if they would have sent me the actual items I ordered in the first place. I have had numerous calls, and emails with Myknobs begging for my money back, with no luck. I have never dealt with anything like this. I now have thrown away over $1,800.00 and I don't have k**** Our barn with animals and sentimental items burned down in a fire in February and these k**** are for the new doors on the new structure. It is not right to treat consumers this way, especially when all mistakes were made from Myknobs. All I ask is that I am refunded the money I am owed, and Myknobs owns their mistake and makes it right.Business Response

The customer placed an order with our company on 6/2/2022 the merchandise was shipped and delivered on 6/10/2022 to the cardholders billing address. The cardholder contacted us on 6/20/2022 that (2) two out of the (4) four handles received were incorrect at which time we issued a pre-paid ***** label to return the incorrect handles, we contacted the customer multiple times via email and telephone to return the merchandise since the pre-paid label is only valid for 14 days. The merchandise was not received back to the warehouse till 8/5/2022. The merchandise was not in the original individual packages, the merchandise was tossed loose into a box without proper packaging, missing latches, strike plates and fastening hardware. The merchandise was installed prior to the return and not in resalable condition. We have advised the customer we are unable to issue a credit for the products and have shipped the merchandise back to them to our inability to credit. We have attached images of the customers return for your review.Customer Answer

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:I never had my builder install ANY of the products, because I knew it wasn't what I ordered. You made a mistake, sent incorrect products (at a much lower cost than the ones I actually ordered), and I returned the products at my inconvenience. The k**** were never installed, nothing was ever used. If something got damaged in shipping that is out of my control. Again, I would have never needed to return anything if you would have sent the correct products in the first place. I have ZERO products of yours, and am out $1,800. I am owed a refund.

In may I was directed via email by Knobs4Less when I inquired about replacement hinges for my kitchen remodel. I made the purchase through their expert guide and upon opening the hinges this past week I discovered that the incorrect hinges were sent to me. At this time the company accepts the return but refuses to email a return label, despite it being their error and it states on their website that they provide a return shipping label for returns. After several disconnected calls and hours on hold they still refuse the return label. I was also informed today that they do not carry the hinge I need. Proving more that they made an error abd refuse to pay for the return. Needless to mention that huge delay this is causing my remodel.Any help is appreciated.***********************Business Response

Thank you for describing your dissatisfaction with our company we set a high standards for ourselves and are apologetic to hear this was not met with your interaction with our company and our policies. Please recognize that returns are always welcomed by our company; as we have authorized a return for the hardware you received on July 2022. As our return policy clearly states "You have 30 days to return any item or items in their original unopened package from the date of receipt." Our company offers free shipping which was applied to your order. However, customers are responsible to ship merchandise back packaged in a similar fashion as when received to ensure damage does not occur, no credit will be issued unless products are received in good re-sellable condition.
We would appreciate you avoid calling our establishment with the use of profanity and vulgar language towards our staff.Customer Answer

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:I was sent the incorrect order. After multiple calls and trying to get assistance I was told that the shipping charges were my responsibility despite it not being my fault the incorrect item was sent. Thats all I asked for was a shipping return label. I apologize for using a swear word as I was at my **** end and your company messing up my order has comply stopped my progress on the remodel.
I returned the incorrect hinges and tracking says they were delivered last Thursday and Ive yet to see a full refund. I would like that refund ASAP and I would like to be reimbursed for the shipping as it isnt my fault that the wrong hinges were sent.
In my original complaint I included an email as proof.
at this point I am waiting for a full refund that includes shipping reimbursement.

I purchased some k**** from myknobs.com based on the company advertising them in stock and was told after purchasing that they were not in stock and there would be a delay. So I found them in stock elsewhere and called the company to see if I could still cancel the order and was told I could because they had not shipped out yet. So I cancelled the order and placed my new order elsewhere. A few days later myknobs.com emailed me that my order had shipped! I called to tell them of their mistake and their response, was too bad, you can return them when you get them but you have to pay the return shipping. I called them multiple times to explain that I should not have to pay for THEIR MISTAKE but to no avail. So I finally just paid the return the k**** over a month ago and they are still refusing to refund the cost of the k**** I've called more than 5 times and left multiple messages for the supervisor but she won't return my calls.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because the company is not acknowledging their dishonesty and making good on it financially. I cancelled the order before it shipped by telephone with a representative of their company. They told me it was fine so I purchased replacement hardware. THEN THEY SHIPPED IT TO ME ANYWAY and told me I HAD TO PAY TO RETURN SHIP IT. That was dishonest and wrong, so I disputed the credit card charge in an effort to get them to take responsibility for their mistake and agree to pay the return shipping. They did the same thing with the credit card company they are doing here--leaving out the facts that matter. In all of my dealings with this company I said, 'I WANT TO RETURN THE MERHANDISE." Of course they had the upper hand since they already had my money, so I had no choice but to pay the return shipping. Then, when they got the return, they had the nerve on top of everything else to charge me a huge restocking fee. The only resolution that acknowledges their mistake and makes ir right is to give me a full refund (no restocking fee) and to reimburse me for the return shipping. If you make a mistake you pay for it, not your customer.
