Review: Gave this company 89.17 on 08/**/2015 for a telephone. Phone was refused when delivered. Now the company paid me back 71.88. After calling them they told me the 17.29 difference was because of return postage and stocking fees. I do not believe this is true. I firmly believe I am being ripped off by this company. I may add that I did business with them before with no problems. I want the 17.29 returned to me.Sincerely,[redacted]Desired Settlement: return 17.29 which is appropriate

Review: On June [redacted] 2014 I called Batteries Factory Outlet Store to inquire about a battery for my Dell Inspiron 9300 Laptop Computer. They said they have them and to check out their web site. Their site stated that the battery would be an exact match for my computer. I ordered and recieved the batteries but when I installed them, my computer said it doesn't "recognize" the battery. I first called Dell Tech Support and thought maybe they need to set the battery up in my computer? But they said no, either the battery is for your computer and it works or it not and it won't. I then called the tech support at Batteries Factory and informed them of the situation. The women I spoke with said "sometimes" these bateries work. It stated on your web site states it would be an exact match, not "it may work". I said theres no way I would have wasted my time ordering from you. She said there woundn't be a problem returning them for a refund and she would be emailing me the return forms. I said fine. The email I received was their form I had to sign which asked why I was returning the shippment. I thought she would be sending a return label to send the order back so I called again. The man I spoke with said they don't pay for return shipping. I explained to him this was their mess up NOT mine! He didn't care and said this is their policy, so I said I would be filing a complaint with the Revdex.com to get my money spent to return the batteries. Also so it's noted, I haven't received my refund for the order yet either.Desired Settlement: Refund for order $53.84 and Refund for return shipping $11.45 Total $65.29 UPS Center [redacted] ###-###-#### sent on 06-**-14 and was delivered on 06-**-14 with email confirmation.

They continue not answering my question about paying what they owe. I am not satisfied with them taking advantage of me and stealing from me. I will take another way to get my money. They obviously don't care about their reputation with the Revdex.com either.

Review: I ordered a TomTom GO60s GPS system from the Factory Outlet Store website. After I received it and used it, I realized it did not suit my needs. I called the company to ask if I could exchange it for another device and they said I could, and emailed me an exchange form to include in the package. The TomTom device I sent back was received by the company on August [redacted] according to FedEx tracking, and the package included the exchange form, that I filled out to request a different device. I have since not received the exchange device nor received money back. I have not heard back from the company. I have called countless times, spoken to numerous customer service representatives and two supervisors. I have been told 4 times that they will contact their warehouse regarding my concern and call me back. I have never received a return call. Now I would like a refund for the device that I sent back that they received over a month ago.Desired Settlement: The company should refund my money for the TomTom GPS device, in the amount of $200.

I am writing this review because it relates to the service I've received on two levels, a delivery delay and customer support. My order has been waiting for my item for almost 7 weeks now, I keep getting a response from customer service when and if I'm able to get them on the phone and not being disconnected, that it will be shipped the middle of next week, this must be the official response. However be assured that my account was charged less than 24 hours after placing the order. I'm am very dissatisfied with Factory Outlet Store and will never use this on line store again.
"THE WORST COMPANY I'VE DEALT WITH!!! I ordered a 5 pack RJ-9 Headset Adapter (Item # 2200-11095-002) on 4/*/15 and received the package on 4/*/15 which was great but when I opened the package, they had sent me 1 instead of 5 and upon further look after couple days I found out they had sent me a completely different item than what I ordered. I emailed them 5 times and called them about 5 times as well to get this issue fixed. No one has EVER responded to any of my emails or phone calls. I finally got through to a [redacted] ([redacted]) on 4/** who asked me to send her the pics of the wrong item which I did right away and never heard back after that. No communication or follow up what so ever!! I called in today (4/**) again and she tells me the warehouse did send me the wrong part and they would send me the return label to send the wrong item back but wouldn't ship out the item I ordered until they receive the wrong item!! I immediately asked her to refund my money which she agreed but she told me they wouldn't refund my money until they receive the wrong item back. I wonder how long they are going to take to send me the return label!! I bet they will wait at least another week just to do that. And to top it all, the cable they sent me costs may be $5 max. So is it really worth it to harass a customer because you want your $5 cable back!! FACTORYOUTLETSTORE IS A JOKE!! "
Bought replacement cordless phone battery from this company and they sent the wrong model batt that does not work with my phone. I emailed asking that they send what I ordered and you'd think they'd figure, oops, our mistake and the battery you ordered is on the way. Nope. Instead, I received a form letter email that included a complicated return policy requiring more effort than the battery is worth. So will chalk it up to "got me" but will never buy anything from them again and strongly recommend that anyone considering buying from them go elsewhere. Sure their prices are cheap but buying from them is a gamble that you'll actually receive what you order.
Review: I purchased a Uniden; [redacted] 6.0 cordless phone system (3 phones, not including the waterproof handset) w/waterproof handset (factory serviced). When I received the product the waterproof handset did not work. I phoned FactoryOutletStore.com and they emailed me a form to return the waterproof handset, which I have. As to this date I have no replacement. I know it has been received by the company and was signed for on May [redacted], tracking number: [redacted]. Today's date is June [redacted]! I have phoned FactoryOutletStore.com multiple times and after being put on hold several different times, for minutes on end, they tell me they have not received it. I then asked to speak to a [redacted] (as I was not getting any help from this person). He refused to let me speak to a [redacted]. The additional handsets do not work properly either. You will be on a phone call and they will cut out/end the call. I have tried my best to work with this company with no results. I want a full refund from this company.Desired Settlement: Refund in full.

To Whom This May Concern,
We regret that the customer was not happy with the refurbished items purchased with us.
We received the customer's returned item on 5/**/14 and due to the item being part of a set the exchange goes thru a longer processing time.
The item was successfully exchanged and shipped out on 5/**/14 using UPS [redacted] and shows estimated delivery of 6/*/14.
If you would like to discuss this case any further please feel free to contact our Customer Relations Department at ###-###-####

Response:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
I did receive the Uniden waterproof handset that had been factory serviced yesterday afternoon. I took it out of the box and plugged it in and let it charge all night. After charging all night, it still only has one bar (obviously, it is not charging correctly or holding a charge) also, you have to register the handset. I have been online and downloaded the owners manual for this phone. I have done all of the steps (several times) and it does not let me "register" the phone, therefore you get no dial tone. Not that that even matters because like I said, the phone isn't holding a charge. The other 3 handsets (that have not been factory serviced) do not work properly either, like I stated in my original complaint; they will cut out in the middle of a call, sometimes even ending the call. This is not acceptable. I have been online and reviewed the many complaints against this company, I think their track record speaks for itself. I will be sending all of these phones back for a FULL refund. I would like my case to remain open until I have received such refund, at which time I will notify you, the Revdex.com, that I have received my refund and then we can close this case. If that is not possible, please advise as to how I should proceed. Please be advised that all of the original packaging was sent back when I returned the waterproof handset, therefore, I only have the packaging I received last night.
Thank you,
Review: I purchased a product from this company and they shipped me a defective product. If this is a warranty issue or a product issue they should replace it immediately and I can get a return label to send it back. They said I have to "REPAY" to get another one sent right away. I told them I was purchasing 12 other devices and they could care less. They said I can return it which I want to do now but this is the WORST customer service. I wanted to send a complaint BUT I have to MAIL it in to their complaints department which tells me that they send out defective merchandise all the time and probably don't check it. I am a business owner and will take my thousands of dollars elsewhere. Their [redacted] said there is nothing she can do. I would love to know whether the owner is okay with their [redacted] losing these large orders. I will return it and go somewhere else but as online business owner for 25 years, I have never seen such lack of care for the customer.Desired Settlement: I want my correct phone that is not broken overnighted to me with a return label to send this defective headset back.

Review: I clicked through a link that was included in a HP email to purchase a new battery for my laptop. I was misled that this company was affiliated with HP. I ordered a MO09 HP HSTNN-LB3P battery and they shipped me a MO06 HP HSTNN-LB3N battery. Their return policy states that any return is subject to a 15% restocking fee. I feel I am being penalized because their warehouse made a shipping error. I just didn't return the battery because I did not want it. I returned the battery because it did not fit into the battery compartment of my laptop. I have since ordered the correct battery from a different company without issue. I feel that they need to rethink their return policy. I feel it is unfair business practice. There are so many more companies that refund your entire purchase amount whether it was their mistake or not.Desired Settlement: All I am looking for is a refund for the entire purchase amount the original freight that I was charged. They need to right a wrong.

Response:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
I had to fight tooth and nail to get my refund. I had to return the battery at my cost when the error was theirs. They would not issue a pickup of the battery at their cost. They were originally going to charge me a 15% restocking fee when it was their warehouse that made a shipping error. I am still wanting a refund for my return costs and I am still looking for this company to change their return policy. There are so many more companies that provide online shopping with free shipping and free returns. I have not yet received my credit card statement to verify that I have received a full refund.

Review: I ordered a Petzl Transport 45L Pack from the company. What arrived was not the product ordered, and a much different product. I called the company several times, but was put on hold or hung up on. The final salesman I talked to would not pay for shipping the product back and was going to charge a $15 re-stocking fee.
Order Number [redacted]Desired Settlement: A shipping label to ship the wrong product back to Factory Outlet free of charge to me, and a FULL refund on the purchase price since it was their error, not mine.

It may have matched your SKU, but it did not match the description on the website, or Petzl's description. This is the reason I do not believe it is my responsibility to pay shipping back. If you will reimburse shipping costs, I am happy to send it back today. The item advertised on your site is a:
The Petzl Transport is a caving pack that has 45 liter volume and is useful for long-distance carries. It is made with TPU which is PVC-free
material and its welded construction provides greater strength. Padded
shoulder straps, waistbelt and back panel along with two molded handles
make it very comfortable.
The pack you sent me looks like the Petzl Bug on your site in a clear plastic package with a Transport label.

It is not the product I ORDERED. Perhaps your SKU system is in error. The product sent to me was a black, small petzl backpack, not a 45L yellow one that was advertised on your site.
I am not responsible for return shipping costs due to an error on your side. Please either send a prepaid UPS label, or agree to refund the shipping costs I will incur to send it back.

Review: FactoryOutletStore.com Shows they have products in stock and offer free shipping for 2-5 business days and never inform the buyer that products on the website are on back order. Only after the free shipping period did I find out that the products that I ordered were on back order and that it would be 7-10 days before they would get them in stock. They are not easy to work with over the phone either. I sat on the phone for over an hour to get a voice mail box of someone how never returned my call.Desired Settlement: I would like to know why they are not updating there website on a daily bases for out of stock products as well as not notifying customers by email that they are not available. I would like to know why it take over an hour to get to a representatives voice mail box after being told that they are available.

To Whom This Concern,
After reviewing the complaint made by our customer along with our notation history I do see that the customer contacted us on 8/**/14 to inquire about the order .. the order was on a temporary back order and the agent explained this to the customer .. customer was ok to wait. Customer called again the same day to state that he was seeing 2 charges on his card and the agent explained that it was an authorization that she will release until that item becomes available .. the authorization on the card was cancelled as the item would arrive within 2 to 5 business days - 8/**/14.
Once the item came into stock, customer's card was charged - 8/**/14 - and the item was shipped. Customer then contacted us again on 9/*/14 this time to say that he no longer needed the item and wanted to cancel the order. Unfortunately, the order was already shipped and customer was very upset stating he would take the item to the local Police Department.
As a courtesy we will process a Return To Sender on the package as it has not yet been delivered. Once the package is returned we will issue a refund back to the card.
If you have any questions and/or comments please feel free to contact our US Based Customer Relations Department Monday thru Friday 9am to 5pm at ###-###-####.

Review: After a very frustrating, time consuming, aggravating ordeal, the order I placed was finally shipped, but an item was missing. After contacting the business, I was told the said item was not really included. The item in question is a Panasonic [redacted] Caller ID card. The [redacted] telephone system control unit from the factory includes a card to handle lines 1, 2, and 3. To expand coverage to lines 4, 5, and 6, a second card is needed. On one page of their website, they refer to the factory installed card as:
•3 Line Caller ID Card ([redacted] Built-In).
On another page, they list equipment included in a package deal. Among the equipment listed as being included is:
1 [redacted] Caller ID Exp Card
The word "Exp" is the abbreviation of 'Expansion'. Accordingly, the wording refers to an expansion card [to handle lines 4 ,5, and 6] being included in the package.
(The package deal purchased was a [redacted]PK+ with 8 telephones for $899.95)
The rep (said to be a [redacted]) I spoke with insisted that only the factory installed card was part of the equipment. At the worst it's fraudulent, at best a error on their part in the wording. It is not simply misleading, but rather a promise to include an item clearly listed as being part of the package.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.Desired Settlement: Receiving a Panasonic [redacted]

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
Please access the first link:

Toward the bottom under '[redacted] System Includes:' is " 3 Line Caller ID card ([redacted] Built -in)
This is accurate. It refers to the factory installed card included with the unit.
Now the next link:
Near the top, see the package for $899.95. The wording is "[redacted] Caller ID Exp card" That refers to an EXPansion card. [The unit comes with the factory installed card for the first 3 lines. Expansion card is needed for lines 4, 5, and 6.] I purchased the package based on the description of what was included. Without the expansion card being included, I would have gotten a better deal locally. I did not discuss this because there wasn't a need to. I simply ordered the package, and expected to receive all that was described as being included. Btw, they stated the wording may be changed. Just in case, I have a copy of the original wording if they have changed it. Thank you for your assistance.

This is fraud. The EXPansion card was listed as part of the package, along with a photo of the expansion card. If it were an error on their part, they would have clearly recognized it, and rectified the situation. I placed the order based on the EXPANSION card being included. I would love to return everything, but it has all be installed. Also, among the telephones, 2 were actually used. One was significantly worn!! They offered to exchange them, but if would have been too much inconvenience for the client. But just another example of how they do business. I greatly appreciate the work of the Revdex.com is this matter. However, it appears time to file a complaint with the New York State Attorney General as well.

Review: I bought a Garmin running watch on the web. I went to the Garmin official site and was transferred to what I thought was their outlet site. I now realize it was the factory outlet store. On the page advertising the watch, it clearly said "free shipping". There were no exceptions. I ordered the watch. I did not get an invoice, rather only a confirmation that my order was placed. A few days later, I saw on my credit card a charge from this company for over $50 more than their price for the watch. I emailed customer support several times, with no reply. I then called and after a long wait, was told that the additional was for shipping. When I asked about the free shipping, I only got the answer that shipping to HI was extra. I asked to be sent to a supervisor, to no avail. I was told I could return and the papers for that sent me. I ordered the watch Jan ** and it arrived today, Feb **! The return form says I will be charged 15% plus shipping cost!
There are other minor issues, which I will not get into. I am returning the unit unopened and want a full refund.Desired Settlement: Full refund!

Review: I purchased a GPS (Garmin 2555LMT) but received a 2555LM (no traffic feature). It took quite a while to figure out why. I initially contacted [redacted] in July, and they referred me to Garmin because they told me it was not "their" problem. Garmin gave me instructions on how to "fix the problem, but I had to drive to a signal area. I drove from Maine to Florida in late October and was unable to activate the traffic feature. I contacted Garmin two weeks ago and they gave me further instructions. Finally, after additional correspondence, Garmin confirmed that my GPS was not the model sold to me and would not receive any traffic without additional purchase. I contacted [redacted] 11/**/15 and was told I could return the item within 30 days of purchase.Desired Settlement: [redacted] sold me one item but gave me another. Despite their 30 day policy, I should be made whole either by exchanging for a correct model or a refund. In honesty, I am not too hopeful but I would like to save others from this fraud.

Review: I purchased 2 Jabra GN9125 headsets with lifter on 8-*-13. The 2 headsets arrived and 1 headset did not work. I call to report and find out how to handle the return. I was instructed via email the address to return for an exchange and I did exactly as I was instructed. I tracked the package to find that it was delivered and signed for on 9-*-13 at 1:14 pm however I never received the new headset. When I call to check the status, they said that never received the headset and I should file a claim. I then call the Post Office in Brooklyn ###-###-#### and spoke to a [redacted]. She said that the package was delivered and signed for and that she had received several calls from Factory Outlet customers with this same problem. They tell me that I must get a confirmation and copy of the signature however, [redacted] explains that the company is the only one entitled to that information. [redacted] with Factory Outlet was to call [redacted] at the post office and get the signed confirmation but as of this date she has not and will not accept my calls.Desired Settlement: I simply want my product in a timely manner.

Review: I purchased two water filters from this fake company. Upon finally receiving the replacement water filters, they were not as advertised on the company's website. On the website, the photo clearly displays an authentic brand new GE water filter. What I received was some cheap, generic water filter that doesn't even fit my refrigerator. I have contacted the company multiple times and keep being routed to [redacted] speaking individuals. I have asked to speak to a manager multiple times and have been transferred into a voicemail box. It seems they have no managers.Desired Settlement: I want a refund for these falsely advertised water filters.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me and the matter has been resolved. However, I think you should continue to examine their business practices as what is displayed on their website is not what they are shipping folks.

Review: We purchased 8 phones from FactoryOutletStore on Jan **, 2014. With the order, we were promised to receive wall mounts for the phones. We did not receive them and furthermore, 4 of the phones did not work and non of them would hold a charge if not plugged in. After attempting to contact FactoryOutletStore six times and being promised a return call back from a manager we opted to return / exchange the 4 phones that didn't work at all and see if we would get wall mounts with the exchange - this cost us an additional $24. When we received the 4 phones back, none of the batteries worked on these phones either. After attempting to call again and being promised a return call back, we still have not heard from anyone and cannot get the batteries to make the phones work or the wall mounts to hang them.Desired Settlement: We would like 8 new batteries and 4 wall mounts for the phones that we purchased.

To Whom This May Concern,
We regret that our customer was not happy with the purchase made with us.
After reviewing the complaint made by our customer as well as our notation history I do see that a [redacted] called the customer back on 1/**/14 around 1:59pm and left a message for the customer to contact us as they were not available to take our call.
I do see that this customer purchased the Factory Serviced models and our website explains that some of these products may be missing minor accessories such as the wall mount. Customer can contact Panasonic directly at [redacted] to inquire about obtaining wall mounts for their model phones.
We further understand that our customer would like replacement batteries and will have them shipped out to their shipping address immediately. Please allow 7 to 10 business days for the replacement batteries to arrive.
If you have any questions and/or comment please feel free to contact our Customer Relations Department Monday thru Friday 9am to 4pm Eastern/Standard at ###-###-####.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because the phones that we received have not been refurbished! We ordered 8 phones,4 of these were suppose to have wall mounts. The following is the add from the website in which we purchased the phones:
Panasonic KX-TGA420B
Corded Handset (4 Line)
•2.4GHz Corded / Cordless Desk Extension
•2-4 Line Operation
•Caller ID / Call Waiting
•Digital Duplex Speakerphone
•30 Station Name / Number Caller ID Memory
•50 Station Phone Directory / Dialer
•3-Way Conferencing
•Wall Mountable/Mount Included
As you can see from the above - the wall mounts are suppose to be included!!! We should not have to contact the manufacturer for something that FactoryOutletStore states will be provided! Furthermore, the original phones would not register. We sent them back and received phones back with the same issue - they will not register or hold a charge. One even has a broken phone cord plug-in, so the cord will not stay in the handset. Finally, the batteries are bad in all 8 phones!!! In regards to the "supposed" return call from the manager on the [redacted] - that DID NOT happen. A message was not received and scrolling back through return calls from that day, we had no missed calls.
Sincerely,
