    I ordered over $500 worth of candy. I paid extra to get the chocolate. I received my candy missing two bags of Hershey mini’s, all color M&Ms, two bags of chocolate balls. They stated the Lindor chocolate they sent was 1.5lbs each color. They were no where near 1lb. 2 bags of Hershey kisses, and the green striped lollipop sticks. It was very hard to get through to customer service. When I finally got through I was told to send pictures. I sent the pictures and received an email saying a ticket has been opened and they will get back to me soon. I told them my daughter’s party was April 26th. I had to call them again finally got in touch with someone on Tuesday. They told me they substitute candy and according to the pictures I received the amount I should have. I asked them what was it I received to replace all that expensive chocolate? The representative could not answer that question. I asked to speak to a manager. I was told someone would get back to me soon. I never received a return call. I had to go out and spend over $100 to buy chocolate candy for my daughter’s party. I understand substituting a product if it is missing but you need to tell me what was substituted and you can not substitute hard cheap candy for chocolate candy that cost more money without refunding me a decent amount of money.

    I placed 2 orders for 2 bags of 116 pieces of personalized wedding candy. Their description on ****** specifically said 116 pieces of personalized wedding candy. When received it was only 241 pieces personalized and then generic kisses. When contacted I was told they sent me what the description said, which is incorrect. They advertised 116 pieces of personalized wedding candy.

At first I was told the rest of my candy would be December 19,2034. Then the vendor sent an email stating that my candy was delivered on December 12,2024. Even though it was a partial delivery. The vendor refused to send the rest of the candy that was owed to me. I paid in full, my candy was not sent in the insulated package with ice pack, like stated in the ad

    I received the wrong item and needed the correct one for my daughter's birthday party this coming Sunday, Nov. 17. I tried calling multiple times but nobody answers or calls back when you press that option. I also emailed and left a message. I received Thanksgiving chocolates instead of the personalized candy bags I ordered for her friends on Nov. 3.

    I ordered personalized candy bar wrappers on August 9th with 2 day shipping for a baby naming on Sunday, August 18th. I called Just Candy and was told that my order would ship on Wednesday, August 14th and received on Friday, August 16th. I called again on Monday, August 12th to confirm my order and make sure I would receive my order by Friday. I called again on Tuesday to check on my order and told them I would pay extra for overnight shipping if need be. I was assured my order would be received by Friday. I tried accessing my order beginning on Wednesday and could NOT access ANY tracking. I called Just Candy on Thursday, August 15th and was 'rudely' told that I would be receiving my order the next day. I questioned why there was NO tracking information. I called Just Candy at 2:15 p.m. on Friday, August 16th to tell them I did NOT receive my order and asked to speak to a supervisor. I was told she was busy but would call me back. I called back at 3 p.m. and was RUDELY told by S**** that no one was available to speak with me until MONDAY, August 19th. I reiterated that our event was on Sunday, August 18th and Monday was TOO LATE. S**** told me that I had NO OTHER OPTION and hung up on me. I called back and again she RUDELY told me that no one could help me. My order was NOT DELIVERED IN TIME FOR OUR EVENT. On Monday, August 19th, Leslie called to say I would get a refund. She offered me a refund on an order I did NOT RECEIVE. I told her I expected more than a refund and apology. I said she should offer some sort of compensation. Had I known their service was so bad, I would have ordered these wrappers from a different company. Horrible service and EVEN WORSE CUSTOMER SERVICE!

    Hello, 
    I apologize your purchased product did not arrive in time for the event. The order shipped from our facility on time on Wednesday, August 14th with priority delivery to arrive by August 16th. However, there was a delay with the carrier. A refund for the order in its entirety has been processed. I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.

    Of course, this company would NEED to refund my money since I did not receive the item in the specified--'promised' time.

    I am sure this is NOT the first time this happened...where the delivery company has not delivered the item on time. If the company is aware that this is a possibility, they should inform the customer that it might happen. Had I known this might happen to my order, I would have   a) paid for overnight delivery  b) ordered from a different, more dependable company. 

    I also mentioned that the customer service representatives were not only NOT helpful, they were borderline RUDE. 

    Simply refunding money that SHOULD be refunded in the first place is NOT GOOD ENOUGH. If a company has excellent customer service and cares about their reputation, they should have compensated me with a complimentary order or something along those lines. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE in every way.

    I ordered custom mints, hershey chocolate kisses, gift bags and custom tags on 7/20. I was charged $24.99 for expedited shipping with a cold pack for the chocolates. I called the company twice to tell them i didn't receive the hershey kisses or the bags. I also emailed their customer support department. They didn't care at all that they didn't deliver what i ordered. They didn't care that they charged me $24.99 for expedited cold pack shipping. They didn't cold pack anything. They didn't deliver the hershey kisses or the bags. I spent 2 hours on 7/27 driving around town to try to buy other bags and items that they didn't deliver. I needed everything by 7/27 for a birthday party.

    I would never have just ordered mints from them. I wanted everything I paid for. I can't believe their attitude. They charged me for items I didn't receive. They didn't care that I spent the morning buying items i had already paid them for. It's almost fraudulent. I asked them to refund all the items i didn't receive along with all of the shipping, but they refused. They refunded the mints that i received, not the chocolate and the bags I didn't receive. They also said they would issue a $3.00 credit for shipping. That is just unbelievable.

    I will never order from them again.

    Hello, I apologize for the missing product and the inconvenience that this has caused. A refund of $40.99 was processed on 7/30/2024 for the product and shipping differential. We will process an additional refund for the difference between that Organza Bags and Mints. I apologize for the confusion and hope you have a great day!

    A refund for the missing product and difference in shipping for one product rather than two has been issued. We will move forward with a full refund for the inconvenience this has caused.

    I will never order from here again
    My order came to almost $200.00. When I rcvd the order I did not open it until the next day. There were open candies in some bags and in another bag the candy was all stuck together. ( white m&ms were fine) when I called I was disconnect 3 times and placed on hold for 35 minutes just to be told that I should of took a pic of the box before and after receiving it, and they could not help me. They asked that I show. Pic of the candy that was opened which I did and also asked if I send a pic of the candy in the box which I did. That still was not good enough for them. I have never in my life heard of such a policy. . This is unfair to people who work hard for their money for this company not stand by the product. Shane I had to throw 80% of it away

    Hello, I am sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with the candy that you received. The images that were reviewed displayed no damage to the package. We will process a refund for your order as a one-time courtesy since you were unable to use the candy. You will receive confirmation of this refund by separate email. You should see the refund in 7-10 business days depending on your financial institution’s processing time. I'm sorry for this issue and any disappointment. Have a great day!

    I have just received the candies, which arrived broken with some faded colors and melted to the package, which looks unhealthy and should not be consumed. These were for my kid’s birthday and now I cannot give them. It can be harmful for their health or may contain food poisoning due to long period of exposure to hot weather. I would please like a refund of the money spent. I would appreciate if you can help me with this issue. I have tried to contact them, but their email is invalid as well.

    The seller only refunded $54.97 and not the full amount of $77.89. This is getting beyond frustrating at this moment. 

    Business Response

    Date: 03/04/2024

    Hello, our apologies for the confusion. The original ****** claim amount was for $54.97, so that amount was processed first, and then the remaining amount. You should see two transactions in ******; one for -$54.97 and one for -$22.92 for a total refund of -$77.89, equaling your order total. These were processed on 2/28/2024. If you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to ******************.

    Reporting shipping practices: our package did not arrive at the promised time. I was told my package would arrive on Friday and they processed it as 2-day shipping. I looked at my tracking number and the label was created on Thursday (3/16). In order for the package to arrive at the promised time (Friday 3/17), it should have been overnighted. Additionally, they did not select the option to receive a Saturday delivery for two day shipping. Upon further discussing with UPS, the order was actually processed at ground, which is 3-5 days. Our items were needed for Sunday and they aren’t scheduled to arrive until Monday.

    When I spoke with customer service at Just candy, they didn’t own their actions. They were not apologetic. They gave me two options, they said they would cancel my delivery if it was not satisfied with a late delivery. The other option they gave was a discount for the late items. I don’t want a refund. I want the items I paid for.

    Hello,

    We were out of stock on a portion of the orange gummy bears
    that the customer ordered. The customer service team reached out on 3/10 to let
    the customer know and offered two solutions – wait until more orange gummy
    bears arrive or to substitute the missing amount with a different available
    color of gummy bears. Color options were provided on 3/10 and the customer
    responded on 3/11. The order was updated the following business day on 3/13
    with gummy bears that were in stock, and the customer let us know that they
    were needed 3/17. On March 13th, this order was upgraded by our
    customer service team to comply with our normal two days of production, ship
    via 2DAY and arrive to the customer by Friday March 17th.
    Unfortunately, the customer’s order production was delayed and did not ship
    from our facility until Thursday, March 16th to arrive on Monday,
    March 20th. When the customer alerted the customer service team, two
    options to rectify the issue were provided:
    1. Our team could have the
    package returned to our facility and issue a full refund for the order OR
    2. The customer could keep
    the product when it arrives, and we would issue a 25% refund of the order
    total
    Our customer service manager spoke with the customer on
    Friday March 17th to apologize for the delay and reoffer the
    solutions. The customer stated she'd the customer service team back on which
    solution she would like to move forward with. We are awaiting the customers
    call to issue a refund for the late arrival. Our customer service team can be
    reached at ************ or *******************

    Thank you.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ** ********. While I do not think the company was apologetic or urgent enough for the inconvenience caused, I do accept the 25% discount. The next time a customer needs the order delivered by a certain date, Just Candy should select the proper shipping method to ensure that the package is received.
