H Mart Online Order? DON'T!
I placed an order and realized I was short $1 for free shipping - it'd be better to purchase a small item than pay their shipping $6 fee. Dumb of me. The order was in "Processing" status, which from their FAQ, order can be cancelled as long as it's not shipped. Only, we can't cancel our order by a click of a button. We need to submit a Help Desk ticket to H Mart. Great! Other online stores let you cancel if it's still processing, but not H Mart. I submitted a cancellation request to H Mart. I get a notification that their Help Desk is swamped and could take days to respond. The next day, I get a message that a small PORTION of my order was shipped while 2 items were refunded. What? So they obviously saw my cancellation request, but decided to only refund me part of the order and ship the rest. I made it clear that I wanted the entire order cancelled, yet their customer support (without asking me) went ahead to cancel only a small part of the order. Shipping fee is still charged, obviously, but now I get fewer items. This is very bad customer service. Allow customers to cancel their orders (especially when it's cancelled while the order is still "processing"). Or if H Mart is going to ship it out despite the cancellation request, ship out EVERYTHING! I don't understand why they shipped only a part of my order, and cancelled the rest. I would retract my cancellation request if I knew they'd cancel only a portion of it. It defeats the purpose of my cancellation request.. Very disappointed, and I can NOT recommend shopping to H Mart. There was already a scandal regarding H Mart owner in Korea, but business is business so I shopped here. Guess I should take my business elsewhere. If you want to save yourself the headache, don't shop online with H Mart. You can probably get better prices elsewhere too - some items are marked up online.
