DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY
I am writing to file a complaint against BBQGrills.com, an online vendor from whom I recently made a purchase. I have serious concerns about the legitimacy of this company and its business practices. On 9/3/24, I placed an order with BBQGrills.com, with the understanding that my item would be shipped within three business days, as stated on their website. However, it has now been over two weeks, and I have not received any tracking number or updates on the shipping status of my order. Despite my numerous attempts to contact their customer service via phone calls, voicemails, and emails, I have received no response. The only communication I have received is an automated message promising a response within one to two business days, a promise that has not been fulfilled. Furthermore, I find it alarming that my credit card was charged before the order was shipped. This, coupled with the lack of communication and unfulfilled promises, leads me to believe that BBQGrills.com may be operating fraudulently. I am currently in the process of disputing the charge with my credit card company and felt it necessary to bring this matter to your attention. I strongly advise potential customers to stay away from BBQGrills.com due to these issues.
