Messed up order
I placed an order, and a few days later got an email that my order was shipped. A couple of days later their website showed the order was "fulfilled". I contacted them only to be told they hadn't even worked the order yet. I ordered some plants and 9 snails which I consider to be live animals. Their website says they only ship live animals on Mon,Tues, and Wed. They say this is so the animals don't get stuck in shipment over the weekend. So I get an email from UPS that they finally received the package at 403pm on Thursday. I paid 30 bucks for 2 day delivery. Since it was delivered so late and it's a holiday weekend they won't deliver my package until Tuesday the following week. My 2 day delivery is now a 5 day delivery. When I spoke to Aquaticmotiv, they told me to wait and see what happens. I think they should refund my shipping fee. They don't think so. This company does not care about customer service. I highly recommend shopping elsewhere. Ord 23577

Hello. Thank you for your review. We are very sorry for the delay. In our conversation, our team explained in detail that we got a little backed up due to Mother's Day but we always work hard to clear any backlog as soon as possible. Your order was shipped in the UPS 2nd Day Air service you requested and dropped off on Wednesday for Friday arrival. Unfortunately, UPS delayed your order by a day and ended up getting stuck at a UPS facility over the weekend. Although we have no control over UPS handling and delivery times, we always have your back if you have issues upon arrival. In our emails, we mentioned that the only thing we could do now was wait for the arrival but if there were any issues, you would be covered. Since it has been 9 days since your order arrived and there has been no follow up from you, we believe that the order arrived safely. Thank you.
