    Upon receiving the wrong item, I immediately contacted Dream Driven CO. on 2/24/25 at 5:29 PM through Instagram direct message. Despite their no refund policy, I was not informed that the item I ordered was out of stock, nor was I given an option to approve a substitution. The item I received was not a suitable replacement, and it did not match the product I paid for.I have asked for a refund four times via Instagram direct messages, but the company has refused to issue a refund and has insisted on an exchange, which I do not accept. Additionally, they requested that I pay for return shipping, which is unreasonable given that the error was on their end.I am requesting a full refund because I did not receive the product I ordered. The companys refusal to fulfill their obligations is a violation of my consumer rights.Thank you for your attention to this issue.

    We made an inventory mistake, and tried to make things right by sending a t-shirt we considered comparable to the one ordered, as well as extras to make up for our mistake.

    The customer then reached out, unhappy.  When we asked the customer if they would like something different on the website, they responded by saying no.  

    We do have a no refund policy in place on our website, and do not consider that a "case by case" policy.  If we make an exception for one, we must make it for all.

    We have multiple people running our Instagram DM's as we are a small business and I as the owner alone, cannot keep up.  I decided to message the customer myself and tried to workout a solution, to where I was met with no resolve.

    Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  

    [Provide details of why you are not satisfied with this resolution.]

    There was no proposed resolve in this response. They stated what happened, and refused to offer a refund. Then wanted me to pay for shipping supplies to ship their item mistake back to them. 

    They shouldnt have made that call, they instead shouldve inquired with me before choosing an item at random. Then when they sent me an unwanted item, they have done everything in their power to avoid a refund process. 

    If i wanted a refund and i received the correct item their grounds for defending their strict refund policy would be valid. Seeing as this wasnt the case and they sent me a random item i didnt want without asking me it trumps their no refund policy in my opinion.
    Regards,
