Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: The event passed, you did not deliver the itemI wanted to cancel and a refundYou delivered anyways, even though I tried to cancel and thus sticking me with the billI called your customer service, she was very rude and basically said "sorry"Told me I'd get a refund, but probably just said that to shut me up and get me off the phoneHorrible, horrible experience all the way down the line. Bottom line is, after you failed to deliver on time...I did not want/need the productBut for some reason you absolutely refuse to own up to this and absolutely refuse to give me my money backAs I go through these customer complaints I find solace in the fact that you guys do this to soooooo many othersAmazing that an outfit like this can be allowed to continue

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to meHowever, I do not like the way their order takers handled my initial order and believe they need additional training in servicing customers. Plus the customer service representatives with whom I spoke could not resolve my problem or understand the problem and may need additional training also
