Dear Louis:
Important note: Your online order came into us here in Oregon USA on February 2nd, and with your selection of FREE shipping, your order left here the afternoon of the 3rd,
Oh yes, our US postal service is atrocious and getting into Ireland through the UK Customs screening is no fun and yet another delay; and then after that, to the postal service in Ireland. Your order will most likely arrive this week !!!!.
Louis, we did our best on this end and hopefully the experience you receive with our ultra-high blocking Mighty Plugs, will soften the anxiety that you had waiting for them to arrive.
Most sincerely

Ear plug broke all apart
Ear plug broke all apart. When I woke up next morning, I had little pieces stuck all over my ear.
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsMar 2, 2018
Dear Franklin:
We received a similar report just yesterday from another customer.
We personally use the same exact ear plug daily and nightly and nothing like you experienced ever happers to us; but that (( doesn't minimize the validity and importance of your experience )).
We'd like very much to see and test your ear plugs from your pack. Please contact our office and we will arrange to receive your pack and we will test it out here at our company headquarters.
Franklin, your satisfaction is our most important concern!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kindly contact us at 1-800-226-1884 and ask for Beth or Janet.

These earplugs are awful
These earplugs are awful. They are sticky and uncomfortable. I followed the directions exactly. When I woke up, I found that the ear plugs had literally melted while I was sleeping. When I tried to pull them out, they fell apart into small pieces and some bits got stuck. I had to use tweezers to get the last few pieces out.
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsMar 2, 2018
Dear Nameless One:
ON THE CONTRARY!!! OUR EAR PLUGS ARE MAGNIFICENT.
THEY CAN'T MELT>>> NO MATTER HOW ((HOT HEADED)) THE WEARER IS!
The only waay they will come apart is if someone negligently (( pinches the ear plug )) so hard to break it off.
Nameless one, I suggest that you do not use our ear plug any more. You might purchase some FOAM ear plugs. They are supposed to (( expand )) and block out. They are difficult to break off and easier to use.
One more thing, we are an (( honorable )) company, that prints ALL reviews and we also give all our customer a 30 day satisfaction guarantee. If you within the 30 days or even close, then call or e-mail us afor a RMA authorization number. You'll get all your money back!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We only desire a win-win-win for all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Most Sincerely,

Not my favorite
Do not like the smell. They stink and it gets on your fingers. Could still hear my husband snoring.
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsFeb 26, 2018
Dear Linda:
Most people love the fragrance of Beeswax; the main ingredient of our ear plug, and if your hearing your husband snore; it tells us clearly, that you haven't inserted our (soft and mouldable) ear plug firmly enough or deep enough into the ear canal to allow the ear plug to SEAL your ear canal.
If you did, you wouldn't hear him and Mighty Plugs would be your favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Linda, follow the directions below for inserting our ear plug and you'll find they block out (ALL), if not almost all of the sound.
1. First take ONE ear plug at a time, and (knead or work) it well through your fingers or hands for 15-20 seconds, to make the ear plug (soft and mouldable). Then follow the directions in # 2
2. Push and flatten the softened ear plug, (a bit firmly), IN and AGAINST your ear opening & into your ear canal UNTIL YOU FEEL the ear plug ( SEAL ) your ear canal. YES, It needs to (( SEAL )) the ear to block out much.
IMPORTANT: If the ear plug doesn't (( SEAL )) immediately, then just keep your finger pressed against it with slight pressure for a few more seconds and it will warm and SEAL PERFECTLY.
3. Now take the other ear plug, and prepare it and insert it (exactly) the same way as the first ear plug.
Now with both ears SEALED, LISTEN TO (( SILENCE )) !!!!!!
Linda, we want these to work PERFECTLY for you, so should you need any assistance, we'll be happy to help you insert them (( correctly )) while we're on the phone with you. We wear them too. We know how to use them. THEY WORK !!! You'll see!!!
Please feel free to call us at 1-800-226-1884
Most Sincerely,

I had only been using these earplugs…
I had only been using these earplugs for 3 days when a piece of one broke off while I was sleeping and got lodged in my ear canal. I had to go to an ENT to get it removed. 3 hours and $200.00 later, they finally got it out! It was a very painful and costly experience. I'm just glad they were able to get it out without surgery. I am very dissatisfied with this product and would not recommend it to anyone!!!
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsFeb 25, 2018
Dear Stephanie:
We beg your pardon; but our ear plug doesn't just "break off".
It would have to be (( carelessly pinched )) "so hard" to come apart.
If your experience was even partially valid, then we are surely saddened by it; for our ear plug is provided to customer with only the best intentions.
Over 6 million customers worldwide, presently use our Mighty Plugs daily with no difficulties.
Stephanie, we and they would strongly dissagree with your recommendation!!!!
We re a totally "transparent" company who prints (( all )) the reviews. All one has to do is simply read down the list to see what almost everyone feels about our ear plugs.
Most sincerely
Mary customer service and a very satisfied 12 year wearer.

Worst earplugs I've ever tried
Worst earplugs I've ever tried. I followed the directions exactly, and tried them for a month. My foam earplugs worked better than these. After spending the majority of the time wearing them sleeping on the couch as opposed to in my own bed, I ended up ordering blue-tooth headphones and sleeping in those, with a sleep sound app running all night. Thunderstorm sounds are more soothing than snoring, and I get to sleep in my own bed...plus, I don't have to sleep with my hair in a ponytail to keep the wax from pulling out my hair. Complete waste of money, and it's too late to return them for a refund, because "Try them for a month and let us know how you feel after that."
The earplug was WELL WITHIN my ear canal. Short of touching the eardrum, it could not have gone in any further. It was sealed firmly. I pulled off some extra from each because my ears are smaller. I followed the directions given by Mary to the letter.

Dear Knear:
Your wearing headphones and sleeping in them; and you've inserted our ear plug (until it SEALED your ear canal), and you feel that our Beeswax ear plug blocks out less than FOAM, then something is definitely amiss.
Our Beeswax is so far superior to blocking out sound than Foam. Foam is (( supposed to )) expand and block out??????
Knear, sincerely wishing you the best!

LET THE BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!
The instructions were not clear and there was no true warning, only the following disclaimer, but no true warning of the possible results of not following their unillustrated instructions. This product caused me to be essentially deaf for three days until I was able have an ENT doctor remove the remnants of the wax that lodged and infected my eardrums.
LET THE BUYER BEWARE!
"The responsibility for the use of these earplugs is solely that of the user. BPI disclaims any liability, loss or otherwise through haste and negligence in the use, insertion and removal of our product. Being soft and malleable, always remove slowly."

Oh Joseph:
ON THE CONTRARY!! MIGHTY PLUS ARE VERY SAFE>>>AUTOMOBILES ARE SAFE..HOT COFFEE IS SAFE
(( WHEN USED RESPONSIBLY )) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joseph, Should we warn our customers not to push the ear plug so far into their brain????
Should we warn our customers not to insert so small a piece of ear plug making it difficult to remove?????
Should we warn everyone that spilling hot coffee on themselves will burn them?????
Should we warn that driving a car carelessly can cause an accident.
Joseph, if your experience is valid, then we of course are very sorry for your experience.
Joseph, WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE EXPERIENCE IN YOUR STORY.
OUR EAR PLUG IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE EXPERIENCE!!!
Over 6 million customers wear our ear plugs (( safely and happily )) daily.
Joseph, we suggest packing your ears with cotton balls, but don't push it into your ear drum.
