If I could rate them lower I would
If I could rate them lower I would. I have just had my SIXTH contact with them trying to get the refund that each very pleasant person, in previous chats and calls, assured me it was issued and was about to happen. It has been more than a month. I have spent many hours, in part because it can take 45 minutes (apparently they are *always* experiencing unusually heavy call volume!) to just reach someone. And then get put on "brief" holds that are not brief, multiple times while they confer with their supervisor. The chats do begin more quickly, but have not been any more effective. I ordered four ink cartridges, after failing to notice the teeny tiny print that said they were not name brand. Two arrived and did not work. The other two never arrived. After multiple attempts, I succeeded in getting a refund for the 2 defective cartridges, but they had to do something for me to get the refund for the remaining two. Weeks later, they have not managed to do what needed to be done. Believe it or not, that is the short version of the story. Today (6/19/2020) I am told I have been issued a refund, over a month after starting this with them. It isn't in my PayPal account, but it was just issued yesterday, so hopefully it will happen. Today, I insisted on talking with a supervisor and after being told I would receive a call back "today," finally got someone to talk to now. To his credit, I think he heard me - yes, I was frustrated, but I was also just trying to give feedback about how dysfunctional their business is and how absolutely atrocious their customer service has been. If you choose to try them, I hope your experience will be better than mine!! I have never written an online review before. I would never have thought to look for one before ordering from them. P.S. I subsequently ordered from Canon. The price was only a little bit more. They arrived quickly and worked. I have been working from home because of the pandemic. I just needed a functioning printer. I did not have this time to waste!! UPDATE, NEXT DAY - Still no refund in PayPal. Then I realized I have *never* had this kind of delay with PayPal in the many years I have used it. So I looked up the transaction ID QuikShip gave me. It turns out that is the transaction ID for the refund posted to PayPal for the first two of the four cartridges on *May 28th*!! I sent an email to the only customer service rep who gave me her email address (but, by the way, did not respond when I wrote her to say I had not received the refund within 2-3 days, as promised). I am not optimistic she will respond, but I asked her to forward it to the "lead" person I spoke with yesterday on the phone and plan to call him on Monday (today is Saturday). Trustpilot should really start a system of minus stars (-1 to -5), so I could rate this company more accurately!! 6-22-2020 - The saga that began on May 16th is finally over. The lead person responded to my email and he had arranged to have the remainder of my refund posted to PayPal. They should add up the time and money spent by/on their people to get absoutely nothing accomplished about what should have been a simple refund. In the end, the lead guy spoke to accounting and the refund happened immediately, demonstrating how quick and simple this all could have been.
