Complaint:
I am rejecting this response because: The shipment was returned by me the same day it was received and the seller in turn received the goods back on the 5th dayIt has nothing to do with "being returned as undeliverable within days of shipping"I am still entitled to a full refund as it was returned within the terms and condition of an introductore order/offerIt says that if not satisfied, a refund will be granted as I paid for the return shipment.Full refund of balance they not credited earlierRegards,Ann Baehren

We regret to hear that you did not enjoy the wine, and that you believe they are overpriced You received bottles for $49.98, which is $per bottle I see in the notes on your account that you requested to return the wine I have attached a copy of our return policy, which
includes a 15% restocking fee, less shipping and handling, which is why you were told by customer service that this would be deducted from your refund amount if you wish to return the wineI also see in the notes that we offered you to keep the shipment with a 20% discount That would have been $per bottle I have attached a copy of the notes from your account for your review. With regards to someone "signing you up without your knowledge", it appears you placed your wine membership order by mailing in one of our promotions that you would have received in the mail We received your order form on Oct31, 2016, along with a check for $ I have attached a copy of this form that shows the date received, as well as your signature I've also attached an enlarged copy that better shows the check is in your name Your account was cancelled on Nov16, and your confirmation number is Since it appears there was confusion on whether you placed this order or not, I will issue you a full credit of $ Please allow 7-business days for the money to show in your account

Complaint:
I am rejecting this response because:Viness / American Cellars Wine Club in NO way has “honored” a full credit. Viness has refusing a full credit multiple times (see attached Record of Emails), claiming that my 5/13/order couldn’t be cancelled because Viness “began processing the order on 5/9/16”, FOUR days before I even ordered it (see attached Record of Emails, Email of 5/16/11:04a claiming, "This shipment began processing for you on May 9th.") NOWHERE on the promotion, on the ordering form or Emails were any of the claimed “conditions.” (See attached Emailed offer; landing page offer) The order was cancelled prior to shipment as documented by Email time stamps and UPS records. The Revdex.com is welcome to contact me directly for access to UPS shipping records noting that Viness chose to ship AFTER order cancellation. After multiple outright lies by this company, their choice to ship despite my cancellation prior to shipping and their multiple refusals to issue a refund I was forced to initiate a chargeback dispute through my credit card company. That process is still pending. Because Revdex.com limits my uploads to four (4), please feel free to request additional documentation including:- Multiple Emails from Viness refusing full refund- Multiple Emails from Viness acknowledging that cancellation of order was received prior to shipment- UPS records documenting shipment initiating after cancellation- Full and further details of their offer, including the Emailed offer, landing page and follow up Emails, none containing claimed "conditions"- Documentation from my credit card company of Viness charge; lack of any issued refund Because of Viness’ continued fraudulent, misleading and deceptive business practices I will be following up with the FTC and local AGs office. Should further action be needed for full refund I will take direct legal action.
