      Labels on bottles indicate ultra moisture in large font which is misleading people to believe that it is a moisturizer. The "body wash" text is small on the bottom of the bottle in a light grey shade. As a result the body wash was inadvertently left on the face and caused an allergic reaction.

      I purchased Crest Pro-Health Gum Detoxify + Whitening 2-Step toothpaste from *** in *** *****, CA on June 24, 2025. The package clearly states “Satisfaction Guaranteed” and instructs customers to return the receipt and UPC within 60 days for a refund.

      On Day 56 after purchase I attempted multiple times to contact the number provided on the package (###-###-####) to exercise the guarantee. *** refused to process the return, stating they only accept returns within 30 days. Despite my timely attempts within the 60-day window, I never received any response from Procter & Gamble or Crest.

      As a consumer with an immunodeficiency condition, repeated trips to *** and attempts to resolve this issue have caused me significant hardship and out-of-pocket costs (at least $100 in transportation/Uber fares).

      Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. § 2301 et seq.), a written satisfaction guarantee must be honored as stated. I am therefore requesting:

      1. A full refund of the purchase price of the product as promised in the satisfaction guarantee.
      2. Reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in attempting to comply with the guarantee (transportation costs to and from ***), as a gesture of good faith.
      3. A prompt written response confirming how and when this refund will be processed.

      I have attached copies of my receipt, the UPC from the package, and photos showing the guarantee terms. I made my request within the 60-day period but was unable to reach anyone.

      Thank you for your assistance in helping resolve this matter.

      Please keep an eye out for an email from us directly regarding your refund for the product. We cannot offer a refund for the cost of transportation. We recommend you reach out to *** directly regarding their return policy and the difficulty you had with that particular store.

      Again, we are sorry for your experience and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      I purchased an Oral-B iO Series 9 toothbrush from Target a little less than a year ago, and it has repeatedly failed despite proper use and care. My brush is still under warranty. The primary issues are:

      - The battery dies randomly even when it is fully charged.
      - The display screen shuts off unexpectedly during use.
      - The toothbrush often stops working when the battery indicator still shows 40–50% remaining.

      These issues occur unpredictably and make the product unreliable for daily use. After researching online (including user reports on Reddit), I found that this appears to be a common and well-documented defect with the Oral-B iO9 model.

      Given the persistent malfunction and known defects, I am requesting a replacement with an Oral-B iO10 toothbrush, as it does not appear to suffer from these issues. I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter, as the ongoing failures have caused significant frustration and inconvenience.

      The team at P&G just emailed me asking to do what I have already done. I have already serviced this brush before but the issues still persist. They fixed the brush last time, it worked for a few months and now it is back to square one. This is not a solution and rather a stop-gap solution. For a product which I paid over $250+, this is completely unacceptable. A replacement needs to be provided or the iO series 10 needs to be provided since apparently that model has addresses a lot of the issues with iO9

      Thank you for reaching back out to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Oral-B. We’re sorry to hear about this experience, and would be happy to assist.

      Upon further research, we were unable to find any previous records of you sending the toothbrush in for warranty replacement. Based on your receipt, you are still within our two-year warranty timeframe. We’ve sent you a return label to have your toothbrush sent in for replacement. Once we receive both brush and charger, we will evaluate them. If either the brush or charger is faulty, we'll replace the component with the same model. If there is no fault found, we will return them to you.

      Again, we are sorry for your experience and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      The always pads claims to be 100% leak free or ZERO LEAKS but in reality they leak.
      It is false advertising.

      Business Response

      Date: 09/23/2025

      Thank you for reaching out to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Always. We’re sorry to hear about this experience.

      While you did not mention which specific Always product you’ve used, we’d be happy to share information on both our Always and Always Discreet products.

      For Always:

      We understand that every woman’s period is unique, so we developed a wide range of products designed to fit different body types, period flows and preferences. If you find that you are experiencing leaks, or that you need to change your pad/underwear often, you should try a larger, more absorbent version for better protection.

      Always offers a wide range of products designed to fit different body types, period flows and preferences. We include a Product Selector on most of our packs so you can see the graduation in pad/underwear size.

      Here are a few general guidelines to help you decide which pad/underwear is best for you:
      Slender is our smallest pad for those with a light to moderate flow
      Regular version is our pad for those with a light to moderate flow but need a slightly longer pad than slender
      Long version is our medium-sized pad for those who need more panty coverage and have a moderate flow
      Heavy or Extra Heavy version is our best daytime protection for those who need more panty coverage and have a heavy flow
      Extra Heavy Overnight/Always Zzz version - our best overnight protection specially designed with more coverage in the back of the pad/underwear to help protect you while you sleep
      Our highest-performing pads for ultimate period protection is Always Infinity
      We offer an entire line of products to help meet a range of needs, from those small little leaks up to heavier urine loss.


      For Always Discreet:

      For leaks in our Always Discreet pads, we recommend moving up one drop size. For example, if you use a 5-drop, try out a 6-drop pad, which provides higher absorbency. Our most absorbent pad is 7 drops and is easily found at online retailers. If 7 drops don’t provide sufficient protection we also offer Always Discreet Pants for more security and absorbency.

      In order to assist with compensation, please let us know the exact product name, size, and count.

      Again, we are sorry for your experience and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      Customer Answer

      Date: 09/24/2025

      Problem:
      This is a continuation of my complaint with procter and gamble regarding always pads. I have tried all their product including the biggest pad they have. The always ultra thin #4 and the always maxi extra heavy overnight #5. Both promising 100% leak free protection. These are false advertising. Even with frequent change they still leak thus they are not guaranteed 100% leak free.


      Desired Resolution:
      Contact by the business

      Business Response

      Date: 09/29/2025

      Thank you for reaching out to the Better Business Bureau
      (BBB) and Always. We’re sorry to hear about this experience.

      We appreciate
      your reply with additional details about your experience. What you’ve described
      is not what we’d expect as we have very strict quality standards.

      As mentioned, we offer a variety of products and sizes for the
      different needs of our consumers. Since you’ve mentioned the versions you’ve
      tried, I would recommend one of these versions of Always. Heavy or Extra Heavy
      version is our best daytime protection for those who need more panty coverage
      and have a heavy flow, Extra Heavy Overnight/Always Zzz
      version - our best overnight protection specially designed with more coverage
      in the back of the pad/underwear to help protect you while you sleep.

      Our highest-performing pads for ultimate period protection is
      Always Infinity. I hope you’ll give Infinity a try.

      I’ve
      made a report of your experience and am following up via postal mail. Please
      look forward to my letter in 3 weeks or less.

      Again, we are sorry for your experience and appreciate the

      I bought Secret deodorant 2/19/25. Received chemical burn to armpits. went to doctor to get medical care. Spent more money than I needed to on this product. Sent in a letter, 4/2/25 with all documentation attached. Played the P&G game, where they only would contact me via regular mail. would not call, email or anything. They would respond 6-8 weeks later indicating they needed more info. to which I would send. we did this 3-4 times. I encountered additional expenses to exceed $1000. I requested a reimbursement pf $5715.61. I was sent a $12 gift card to reimburse me for the deodorant. Finally received a letter 6/26/25 indicating they would reimburse me $105.59. Medical care and supplies alone for me cost $210.64!. I declined and requested $2500. received another letter 8/20/25 indicating they were closing their file. nothing was solved, how can it be closed!?

      and submitting the additional documentation to us. The information we received was
      carefully reviewed by the Consumer Care Reimbursement Claims Team. Please know
      we could only consider out-of-pocket medical expenses related to your report. As
      you reported we offered, as a gesture of goodwill, the $105.59 for
      out-of-pocket medical expenses that you provided documentation for. At this time,
      we cannot offer anything additional for this case based on the documentation you
      have provided.

      Tell us why heWe appreciate you getting back in touch with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Secret.

      As mentioned, we only
      consider out-of-pocket medical expenses related to your report. As you
      reported, you were offered $105.59 for out-of-pocket medical expenses that you
      provided documentation for. *Specifically, the $105.59 came from the
      explanation of benefits, prescription receipts, and bandages purchased. Since
      that offer was declined, our team closed the case.  

      While we cannot offer anything more than the $105.59
      that you provided documentation for, I have requested we resend the letter that
      was sent on June 27th, for you to review and choose to accept or
      decline that $105.59 good will gesture. Once again, if you choose to decline, we
      will close this case. Watch for that in the postal mail over the new few weeks.

      I purchased a Braun silk expert pro 5 laser hair removal system, and I opened everything today to use it and it has the wrong type of plug-in. It isnot one for the United States. I called Braun about the problem and they were not willing to send me the appropriate plug. That is ridiculous for an item this expensive.

      We're sorry that your recent purchase of Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 Laser Hair Removal System came with a
      non-US adapter. We see where you contacted us vis Chat on Friday Sept 12the at
      10:10 am. At that time our advisor attempted to gather information about where the purchase
      was made to help troubleshoot the issue with the plug. However, it seems you didn’t
      recall where the purchase was made and were not able to provide proof of
      purchase. Typically, to help we require a copy of the receipt. As if it was
      purchased from a third-party seller, they would be responsible for any compensation.
      The chat ended prior to the advisor fully explaining the policy and process.
      Since we value your loyalty and want you to be able to experience the Braun
      Silk Expert Pro for yourself, we have made a one-time exception and have requested
      the US adapter be sent to you via postal mail. You can expect that to arrive
      within 3 weeks.

       We appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      I contacted P&G earlier today regarding an issue with Tide Pods, 57 count, which stained one of my bath towels. I washed the towel a second time on hot and a little more if the color came out, but not all and it appears permanently stained. The more I got to thinking about it, the more I think it’s only fair that Tide replaces my towel set, or offers $25 for this issue since it ruined my towel. I have even attached a picture (and the best life that I could) showing the stain.

      Thank you for bringing your
      experience to the attention of the Better Business Bureau and Oral B regarding your two
      recent Oral B orders.

      We
      see you have also contacted us directly regarding two recent Oral B refill
      orders #******* and #*******. Where although
      you didn’t have a product complaint were granted an
      MBG exception, as you requested. We’ve mailed out a postage paid label
      for you to complete the MBG process, if that hasn’t arrived yet you should
      receive it soon. Additionally, you were given a $5 refund for the discount
      price of the order you wanted to return due to the price difference.

      We
      hope to receive your MBG submission soon.

      Thank you for reaching out
      to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Oral-B. We’re sorry to hear about this
      experience.

      Initially, we refunded $5,
      changing the total of the order to $43. When you disputed the charge with your
      bank, and they refunded a total of $49, and not $43, so you've been refunded
      more than what you were charged. 

      Based on the tracking
      information, your orders arrived on Tuesday, August 26 at 6:09 P.M and
      Thursday, August 28 at 6:35 P.M. Orders ******* and *******, the ones that
      showed as delivered, have been disputed, while order ******* was canceled. We
      do not charge for orders until they ship, so since order ******* was canceled,
      you were not charged. You may have seen a pending charge; however, this falls
      off within a few business days. According to ******, it can take up to 21 days
      for them to process the pending charge back to your original form of
      payment. 

      While we did send out MBG mailing material, that can take up to 3 weeks to arrive, it is no longer necessary to receive the items back. As stated above your bank has reversed the charges per your request, which has resulted in you being refunded more than you were ever charged. 

      Again, we are sorry for
      your experience and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      Thank
      you for reaching out to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Oral-B. We’re
      sorry to hear about this experience.

      As
      mentioned, we initially refunded $5, changing the total of the order to $43.
      When you disputed the charge with your bank, they refunded a total of $49, and
      not $43, so you've been refunded more than what you were charged. 

      Regarding
      the mailing material we promised to send for the MBG process, that was
      requested on August 27. As we’ve communicated, it can take 3 weeks to arrive.
      However, that request was prior to your bank reversing the charge
      for $49, mentioned previously. The MBG process is no longer valid for this case
      as there will be no additional refunds or billing adjustments.

      Again,
      we are sorry for your experience and appreciate the opportunity to address your
      concerns.

      Attached  picture of the charge, put me through so much Back-and-forth it’s not worth it but you’re have a terrible business practice. There’s hundreds of complaints against you and I see why it’s not all the customers fault. You’re just too big Company to know what your left hand is doing the same time as your right hand.

      reaching back out to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Oral-B.

      While we appreciate you providing an image of a charge to
      your account, we were also notified of a reversal that followed. According to
      ******, it can take up to 21 days for them to process the pending charge back
      to your original form of payment. 

      As mentioned, we

      I USED TO use tide but lately it’s staining my clothes. O had bought a pair of ******** ****** sweat pants and a sweat shirt, washed them ask tag said. ******** **** is not cheap. I paid almost $89 for them both just to have your detergent stain my clothing. I’m very disappointed because I have never had issues with tide before. Please look at pants and shirt. They are not even wearable. $80 is a lot of money to just throw away. I have more photos if need be. They never even asked my address

      They sent me a $11 gift card which is an insult when I spent $89 for the outfit. Therefore, I will need to continue with the complaint
