The company royal prestige and its salesmen conned me into a sure sale for them by opening the product knowing that i wouldnt be able to return it back and on top of that lied to me about low interest rate saying i was going to get the lowest interest rate ever at 2% when in reality they gave me an interest rate of 24%Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
I dont need for someone to explain to me the interest that im getting, what i need is for someone to explain to me why the salesmen specificly told me and guaranteed that i would get a 2% interest rate and didnt deliver on his promise and even went to say this will be the lowest interest rate i have ever received in my life. The sales men lied to my face. What is your business going to do about these corrupt sales tactics that were abusively implemented on me?

Hello *****,
Thank you for your response. Once again, I am sorry to hear about the miscommunication that transpired with your sales representative. We are actively investigating this situation and speaking to him as well regarding your claim. Unfortunately, since we were not present during the sale, we do have a signed contract acknowledging your acceptance to a 24% APR. Once we have completed our investigation, the issue will be escalated to our compliance team to review the Independant Sales Representative actions and any measures necessary will be presented. I can still have one of our representatives contact you via phone call to ensure we have all the information necessary for our investigation. Thank you!

Hello *****,
Thank you for your response. I understand your claim is not denying the order but more so, the distributor was not clear on the terms and conditions of the contract. I will be happy to further discuss the terms and conditions of both the sales order and credit application we have signed. We will be in contact with you to discuss what was not clear but unfortunately, at this time, we cannot honor the resolution you are seeking. Thank you!

O recently asked a question to a royal prestige seller, I asked the question about frescaflow filter with no intention to purchase. That person immediately started to give me prices offers and insisting for me to purchase and I get it thats a sales person normal behavior. I went ahead and signed the documents and I definitely take full responsibility for that because I should know better. The salesperson was supposed to do certain proof that never was done and certain details was also missed. When i received the package I started looking for videos of installation when I found out that it needed to be plugged and I dont have a plug available near by. She offers to send me a person who can do installation and she mentioned oh he will only charge $250 so i thought ok perfect $250 for electrical work not bad. So the electrical work offered was an extension so basically no electrical work required and charging $250 to install the filter when in the email said installation free within the first 30 days . I was mad and proceeded to cancel the order. Called on the feb 5th, an email was sent and never received the return labels. It was never clarified that they needed to receive the item within 20 days in order to proceed with cancelation. Contacted that department later on. Saying that i never received the labels. And they told me yes we did send it and you didnt follow up and now is being more than 20 days so you cant cancel the order, that rep ****** from cancelation department hanged the call on me twice. I call after the call was perfectly fine and i was informed indeed that was my fault because I didnt follow up on time and everything is written on the contract. I definitely loved Royal prestige but after today (2/17/25) will definitely find other alternatives. Note: the nonstick pan are garbage as well.They all work together to s**** you up!Business Response

Hello Yorkis,
Thank you for contacting! I am sorry to hear about your request for a cancellation and not proceeding. I was able to locate your account and review the notes and indeed I do see your initial request and the label issued on February 5, 2025, to which the item was never returned. We will contact you today to clarify any misunderstanding and answer any questions you may have regarding the cancellation process. Thank you!

I was approached by a salesman by ***** Ilbi Yaramani from Royal Prestige on 01/27/2025 at a **************** near my home while I was out grocery shopping. After refusing his pitch at the beginning he was very persistent and I unfortunately caved and purchase a 12" skillet from him with the initial price of $450 with payments of $25 a month with no interest. He stated he would be coming every month in person for a payment.Once I received my package in the mail I called him immediately and informed him that I had received the 10" skillet by mistake and would like it exchanged. He stated he would stop by later in the day to verify and help with an exchange. one week went by and he never showed. I continuously called him and and texted him to which he would respond that he was on his way and he never seemed to make it. Finally, I contacted Royal Prestige customer service and they informed me that Royal Prestige has a 10 day return and exchange policy and I was just shy of 2-3 days over that policy. I contacted them again and asked to speak to a manager because I need assistance in clarifying the situation to either receive the item I was paying for or return the product all together. I spoke to representative ********* who then transferred me to a ****** **** Cangrejo whom stated that someone form the distribution center would reach out to me the following Monday to assist. After having reviewed the order I saw that he also included a false ITIN number on a credit application that I never agreed to submit. I also saw that there was an interest attached to the account of 2%. Over all I have had a very unpleasant experience with them and I feel taken advantage of with no help or resolution to my issue.Business Response

It's complicated with the warranty. My faucet started to leak just 4 months after installing the system and I called them to send me a new faucet, and they told me to uninstall it and send it in for them to check it. I told them that then I would be without water for 15 days while they checked the faucet? I just need a new faucet and I'll send the one that doesn't work. But they don't accept it. It's complicated. I'm not happy with how they handle the warranty.Business Response
