Difficult exchange and customer service
Processed 2 orders for Costa del Mar sunglasses. 1st was acknowledged and delivered promptly. Processed a 2nd order for another style of Costa del Mar sunglasses. Again, order acknowledgment and delivery were prompt. Unfortunately, 2nd order contained the wrong Costa del Mar product. I notified customer service by email the morning after delivery and waiting 2 days. No response. I reached out by telephone and was told the email I sent about the incorrect product was NOT from the email used when placing the order. I then sent 5 emails from the email address used when ordering with 3 photos of the incorrect product, BUT they continued asking me to send photos of the product. Finally, I got an email with return instructions that required me to create a user ID and password to log on and request repair/exchange. I did not have to create a user profile to order. By that point it was obvious that WATCHMAXX makes return and exchange difficult, obtuse and very slow. After creating a USER PROFILE I had to go through additional verification of my email address they used to process my order. Furthermore, It was difficult to find where to process the exchange after I finally logged on. In my account profile there is no shipment status or return status ALSO WATCHMAXX customer service initially wanted me to process and pay for the return. Working through the objection to that took another 24 hours. A return label was eventually sent, but when I asked about the shipment of the correct pair of glasses, I was told I had to wait 3-5 business days after the return was received. 3 weeks has passed since my 1st email about receipt of the incorrect product. I still have not yet received the replacement. I certainly hope it is the correct product. VERY! VERY! POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE with regard to returns/exchanges. Go to BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU online and read the list of complaints. Even though they maintain A+ BBB rating, it is clear that returns and product complaints are troubling consumer issues for Watchmaxx.com
