ICTV Brands Reviews (%countItem)

I am so disappointed with this company. They will not answer calls but have a message to send an email. I've been trying to get my address changed since October. Anywho, I told them if they did not cancel my order I will report them to the Revdex.com. DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCT.

I purchased the Dermawand Pro directly from the company website on 10/22/18. I also purchased an extended 5 year warranty at the same time for a total purchase price of $240.82. I have a confirmation email from the company with a confirmation number#. My Dermawand Pro stopped working. I tried calling the telephone number on the company website and the message said the number was no longer active and I had to reach out via email to [email protected] which I did on 11/25/19. I received no reply so I reached out again on 11/27/19 and also added the email address of [email protected]. I have received no reply to my emails. I have an older model purchased directly from the company several years ago that the tip has broken. I would like a replacement tip. I've tried calling the telephone number listed on the Revdex.com website and get a fast busy signal. There appears to be no way to get in contact with this company to get a resolution to my issues.

I own a Dermawand purchased from ICTV Brands. I also purchased a 5 year warranty for a replacement Dermawand which I am trying to use now. You cannot reach this company by phone as their number is now out of order. I have sent numerous emails which have gone unanswered. Not only do I want my replacement Dermawand that is still under warranty. I want to warn people not to deal with this company at all!

I returned the derma wand because it broke while I was using it... kept calling which is in my bank statement, no one ever answers the call so I proceeded to return it to the mailing address on the box because I dont have other options and because its been over 30days they refuse to refund my money. They want to exchage it only

The item I purchased( May 2019) is used for the face and the bulb part of the product shattered into pieces. I’m lucky that I did not have it on my face or it would have been a law suit. I contacted the company to have the bulb replaced and they stated with a proof of purchase they would replace. Later to find out they are willing to replace it for a cheaper model ***. There stating I went through a third party which is TSC. I asked for the third party cendor so I can receive my exact model and they cannot provide me with that information. I ask to speak to a supervisor and there is no supervisor available. The customer service for this company is awful!!

This Complaint is about a little machine called ***. Before I go on I'd like to say I feel the product did have positive results for me. It takes some discipline because you have to keep at it, but it seems to dry out the area, and kill whatever fungus is there. My issue is that the machine just stopped working after two months. So I can't give a conclusive review as to effectiveness, because I did not finish the treatment. I told the lady I spoke to last that if they are going to sell products for "medical" use they should be more conscientious, especially since it was a "product defect". But this may be one of those companies that sell gimmicky products, without any consideration for the consumer.

They were willing to replace it, and I went through whatever their process was. I estimated it would take about 14 days (if everything went well) to have a new one in hand. Twenty days after mailing it, I decided to call to find they had received it, but nothing had been done. They basically said there was no supervisor, no redress, no refund, no expedited shipping, and it would take 7 to 10 business days to get the pending replacement. They later called back to say I had been told to call when I sent it, and that they had confirmed on the recording of the call I was told to call once mailed---fine. What I didn't like is that despite the fact they send me a defective product they claim I am supposed to call them when they already have the product and all of the information. But anyway . . . .

I eventually received another machine, no box or anything, just a machine in a padded envelope. There was no charger. When I called they said they told me not to return the charger. I had put everything in the box, to return it as normal. They said the person on the phone told me. Then they listened to the tape, and said the person didn't tell me, so they sent me a charger. We are talking almost two months to get a new machine. But that is not the worse.

After I got the second machine, a week later it stopped working. I called them, but they wouldn't refund my money, and the whole process began again. The person offered to have me speak to a supervisor, who would call me in 24 to 48 hours. Needless to say that never happened. I Never got to speak to a supervisor, no redress, no refund, no expedited shipping, and it will take 7 to 10 business days to get the second replacement, once they have confirmation of shipping, after I call to confirm the return. This is for a little machine that cost almost $200.00. I am only following through because it doesn't make any sense to spend that much money and have nothing.

Watchout for ICTV Brands. By the way, they claim there is a 30 day "warranty". So if your product malfunctions after 30 days, this will be the process according to their policies. They are a big company, and have a lot of products they sell on tv, etc., but this is a clear case of buyer beware. At this point I wish I had bought this produce on *** because I'm certain I would have gotten my money back by now.

ICTV Brands Response • Jun 21, 2019

We are sorry to hear the frustration *** has experienced throughout this process and can assure that this is not how we typically run our business. Our customer service team is provided by a third party call center, who did not make us aware of the situation. After reviewing the call recordings, we are embarrassed with how this case was handled and are addressing this with our representative at the call center. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused and more specifically for the disruption in ***’s treatment. For the inconvenience, we have fully refunded *** for the purchase and also sent a new *** kit with some additional products from our company free of charge. Again, we apologize and are working to have this issue resolved with our customer service team. If there are any further issues, our Brand Reputation Manager, Kimber M, will be more than willing to assist. She can be reached via email at ***@ictvbrands.com or by phone at .

I received notification from my bank of Fraudulent activity on my account. After some research, my debit card had been stolen and used a few places, including DermaWand. The bank took care of my fraudulent charge by refunding me. Then in April, I received two letters from Derma Wand explaining my charges where being sent to collection. After some more research a person named Susan from GA was the one who received the product and used my account fraudulently. I explained to Derma Wand it was fraud and it shouldn't be sent to collection. They where not helpful. I called on at least 4 different times about this problem. I did not want my credit report or credit score affected by this mix up. Derma Wand said they where would transfer me to their "collection agency," which is actually just their collection dept within Derma Wand. Finally, on May 13 I called the collect dept and they where able to close one of the two accounts.
One on occasion a man was rude to me on the phone about this. The customer service is extremely rude. My Bank had to also call to help represent me, which they where rude to her also.

ICTV Brands Response • May 17, 2019

We apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this situation has caused. Our customer service department is handled by a third party call center, who never made us aware of the issue. We have requested the call recordings and after reviewing are very unhappy with how this was handled. This has been addressed with the account manager at the call center and we are working on ways to prevent this in the future.

We sent an email to collections to have the account removed so you should not receive any further communication from the agency. We would also like to refund the $18.06 that was fraudulently withdrawn from your account. Please contact our Brand Reputation Manager, Kimber M at to confirm the correct address for the check.

Again, we greatly apologize for the frustration that this has caused.

I purchased their Derma Wand in January 2019 and returned it in February 2019 well before the trial period ended and still have not received my refund. I have tried to contact them several times with no response.

ICTV Brands Response • May 02, 2019

We apologize for any frustration *** has experienced. Because *** is a third party company used to collect payment, a refund is not automatically processed within our system as it is with direct payments. Our customer service team has been in contact with *** and a refund was processed within *** for the full amount on May 1. Again, we apologize for any frustration or inconvenience this has caused.

I placed and order on 12/23/2018 and then called back a little later to cancel the item because I had a unexpected thing come up that was going to cost more than we had expected. I called within in 2 hours and cancelled it and they told me I had to call customer service, which was closed. Then I called 1st thing Monday Morning and they said it went into processing at 2 am. If they would have cancelled it in the beginning this wouldn't have happened.. All 3 people I talked to would not let me talk to a supervisor or do anything. My account has been debited when they had more than enough time to cancel it. I was also told if I did not like it and returned it I would get 100% of my money back and now they are saying I will not.

ICTV Brands Response • Jan 09, 2019

We apologize for any inconvenience *** has experienced. When an order is placed, it is sent directly to processing. Once it has processed and the order is sent to warehouse for shipment, we are no longer able to cancel. At this time, the customer would have to return the device for a refund when received. All calls, both sales and customer service, are handled through third party companies. Unfortunately, our customer service center, who has the ability to cancel orders, is closed on Sundays, which is why *** was unable to cancel the order on the day of purchase.

We have pulled the call recordings from our customer service team and agree that the situation could have been handled better by the agents. We have spoken with them and would like to apologize to *** for not being sent through to a supervisor or receiving a call back. A return label has been sent to the customer and once the device is received at the warehouse, we will refund the total amount spent, including our usual non-refundable processing fee of $14.95.

Again, we apologize for any inconvenience or disappointment this has caused *** and can assure that we have spoken with the agents to be sure this does not occur again in the future.

Hello, I purchased a Dermawand on my flight from Beijing to China to Los Angeles, on 11/9, 2018, ***, flight ***, through their duty free catalog sale, this Dermawand product was on their catalog. At the time of the purchase, I asked the flight attendant about the product electrical supply specification, whether it requires 110V(US standard), or 220V(Asia, Europe) requirement. We both looked at the package which was wrapped, there was no marking showing either supply requirement. I purchased it based on the logic that since I am flying into the US, the product would be likely for US. And if not, I was sure the manufacture would have no problem exchange it for me.

I opened the box when I got home, and indeed the product needs 220V supply, which means I will never be able to use this in US. I called Dermawand's customer service department, to my surprise she told me they cannot do anything for me, because I did not purchase the product in the US. And there is nothing they can do.

I would like to exchange this product for a 110V compatible product, I know Dermawand makes the product for US consumers, thus there is no reason to believe they don't make one. It is unreasonable for the company to expect me to use it with the wrong electronical supply requirements. There is really no loss for them to take care of this situation, I believe the customer service person I talked to needs education and training on how to properly handle this situation.

To whom it may concern at Dermawand, please take care of your customers, specially if it does not cost you any money. Please educate your customer service personnel that 110V/220V cannot be interchangeable, and it is very reasonable for someone to swap these type of products that are designed to use one or the other.

I would appreciate if someone contact me ASAP, as I had already sent an email to Dermawand, and no one has yet to answer.

ICTV Brands Response • Nov 21, 2018

We apologize for any inconvenience or frustration that this situation has caused. We sell our products internationally through distributors and the voltage for these units are based off of the country in which they are sold. Since international sales are not through our company directly, the order and payment are not sent to us or kept in our system and our agents do not handle customer service issues, exchanges, etc. for these purchases. Typically, we refer customers back to the distributor the device was purchased through, however, to avoid further frustration, we are willing to send the customer a new DermaWand with US voltage free of charge.

Dear Revdex.com,

This product is fraudulently advertised. It does NOT perform the task it claims, nor does it deliver the results (short- or long-term) it promises. Please kindly intervene to spare gullible consumers the extravagant financial loss in purchasing this product.

I purchased the product, charged it as recommended, and was stunned at the process from the first usage. It simply uses a live electric wire to singe the hair at the tips, risking burns when the roller trips on uneven skin and the live, charged wire makes contact with the skin. It misses 95% of the hair, rendering it an ineffective hair-removal instrument. Shaving afterward is a guaranteed, as the majority of hair remains, along with stubble from the singed hairs. The advertising is completely misleading!

Overall, it's a useless waste of innocent customers' money. This should be banned or removed from the marketplace. It exploits and defrauds innocent men and women who experience legitimate medical conditions resulting in superfluous hair. Please act to alleviate ongoing financial losses.

I feel *** they did a bate and switch on me. The TV Commercial said it was 3 easy payments of $39.95 with free shipping. If I bought it now they would upgrade to the *** for free. On 6/26/18 I ordered the *** They send my invoice in Spanish. I had emailed them to ask to re-send it in English. The response was to call customer service. When I got a hold of customer service they had re-sent my invoice with my payment schedule. To my shock, my first payment is $84.85, second payment $64.90 and last $64.91. I did get charged the shipping and handling $19.95 a white hand glove processing fee $14.95. Making it a total $232.50 NOT $120 THEY WERE ADVERTISING!

ICTV Brands Response • Jul 25, 2018

We apologize for any confusion or misunderstanding. The advertisement *** is referring to was for our original *** which is three monthly payments of $39.95 plus a shipping and handling fee of $19.95. Also included in the charge is a trial fee of $14.95, which is the only charge taken on the day of purchase. In the advertisement, there is an introductory teaser to our newest product being launched - *** The advertisement does say that you can upgrade at the time of purchase, however, it does not say that this upgrade is free. There is an additional charge of $20 per payment plus any applicable state tax. Our agents state this during the sales call and customer must agree to these charges for it to be processed.

I ordered Dermawand in December 2017. The product did NOT get mailed to me until February 20 2018. The product was defective, issues with the tip. I contacted customer service and was told to send back the product. I had to pay to return the defective product, I was then sent another replacement which lasted a month and a half and began to have similar problems with the bulb. I contacted ICTV brands yesterday to inform them of the product defect and was told to send it back because it is under warranty, but told me I had to pay shipping to and from for the replacement. I was transfered to a very rude man who barely spoke English who literally told me that 99% of the customers never have a problem and have their device working for more than 7 years, he told me to *** it if I had questions. I tried with no success to get a supervisor on the line and was put in touch with yet another 2 reps who barely spoke English who told me to call them back once I had a tracking number in hand. I did that today and now I was told I had to wait til the defective device arrives at the warehouse. I paid $5.50 to ship the device First Class 3 Day delivery with the USPS and would ensure 3 day delivery. Today, I was told by ICTV brands that I have to pay twice that $9.95 to have a replacement shipped to me and the shipping time would be at least 7-10 days once shipped. When I asked WHY it is twice as much for them to ship it back to me, I was told that was the shipping fee, when I mentioned that they ship though USPS as well the rep told me that was a flat fee which I KNOW to be false. I am extremely unhappy with customer service and the quality of the product this company is now manufacturing. I had a Dermawand years ago an it lasted me 3 years with NO issues. Upon comparison of the original product and this "new" dermawand there is clearly a change in the quality which I believe is the reason for their defective products.

ICTV Brands Response • Jun 25, 2018

We apologize for any inconvenience. Due to high order volume, we ran out of inventory towards the end of December. When *** placed her order on December 28, it was put into backorder status because of this inventory issue. Our customer service agents explained this to *** and we were able to have her order shipped on January 9 [tracking: ***]. When *** called our customer service team on February 27 stating that her bulb had broken, our agents offered a one-time warranty exchange free of charge to replace the bulb, which our agent explained to her. When *** called again on June 18 claiming to have issues with her bulb once more, our agents notified her of our bulb replacement policy. As *** was no longer in our money back guarantee timeframe and had already been granted a one-time exchange free of cost, she had to pay the $25 bulb replacement fee along with shipping of the new device. This was agreed upon during the phone call.

Complaint: ***

I am rejecting this response because:
My device was LESS than 6 months old. You already took the full amount of payment from me prior to the device breaking AGAIN. Customer service, male rep, literally told me to go *** the product and don't put words in his mouth when I tried to explain what was going on with the device. Bottom line, I have purchased this device AGAIN from ***.com because this was handled very very poorly. ICTV is deceptive and I believe I was given a refurbished device the second time around, because the device was very loose and looked improperly constructed. Last time I will ever do business with this company!!!!

Regards

I saw an advertisement for dermawand they said you would receive the dermawand and they were upgrading it to the pro for free and you would receive various face creams. the infomercial said the price was 4 payments of 39.95 but they were slashing one payment of 39.95 so it would be 3 payments of 39.95 and they would not charge the 14.95 shipping fee until 30 days later. you have 30 days to return it and not be charged but if you keep it they will charge 39.95 plus 14.95 shipping the first month then 39.95 for two more months. when I called the phone number they said it was 59.95 for the pro. I asked why the tv ad said said 39.95 and charlotte told me she didn't know but I wasn't the first person who said the ad said 39.95. She gave me customer services phone number and when I called Mike said he didn't know either why there was a discrepancy.

ICTV Brands Response • Jun 07, 2018

We apologize for any confusion or disappointment, however, all pricing mentioned in the commercial is for the original DermaWand. If a customer decides to upgrade to the DermaWand Pro, they are still able to take advantage of our risk-free trial as described in the commercial, however, there is an additional cost for the device.

Dermawand commercial offer a free trial, free shipping and handling at no cost you. It grabbed my attention I was eager to check out the product and see how it works. So I called the phone number I got at the commericial and after I gave the representative my address, He states a disclaimer, and then goes on about a shipping fee for $14.95, and then states a $35.99 fee for the product. I was on the phone for like 15 And for what? False advertising at its finest very disappointed really wanted to try the product but it just seems like grimy business, they liked about it being "free, as well as free shipping and handeling" , how can I expect them to be honest about the product.

ICTV Brands Response • May 25, 2018

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. As our infomercial states, customers are not charged for the product or shipping and handling until the 30 day risk-free trial has ended. The $14.95 non-refundable fee charged at the time of purchase is for processing and covers the cost to have the DermaWand kits built for the trial period. This fee is mentioned within our infomercial as well as in our main pitch in our phone scripts. There are no hidden fees and we are not trying to trick or scam customers as this customer has claimed. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience and are sorry to hear that she feels this way.

The follow text (below) is a complaint I filed with the CFPB against ***, however my complaint originated with ICTV Dermawand, adba ICTV Brands. The text below covers my complaint with ICTV Dermawand, adba ICTV Brands:

I have been a customer of *** for several years now. I have both a mortgage with *** and an ***. I have consistently paid more than the amount reflected on each month's *** statement. I also pay 2 months mortgage plus contribute to my escrow account each time I make payment. Currently, my credit score is 805 according to ***. I have been a customer in good standing until I was called by ICTV Dermawand, aka ICTV Brands.

After seeing an infomercial on TV, I called to ask a technical question about the product. The individual who answered my call clearly did not know anything about the product; he was merely an order taker. I told him that if he didn't know anything about the product he was selling, then I was not interested in the product. Approximately, 10 or 20 minutes later I got a call from a woman who told me that she noticed that I had called regarding the Dermawand and that I had not placed an order. I told her I was only interested in learning the technical aspects of the product. She proceeded to conduct a hard sell. She answered my question and told me that if I did not "love" the Dermawand that I could return it after for 30 days at no out-of-pocket expense (including shipping to return it; I specifically asked her). I agreed to try it for 30 days. She proceeded to sell me other products and asked me if I would like to purchase the Dermawand for my friends. I declined. However, I did agree to an extended 5-year warranty, which was part of the total price of $158.74.

When I received the item the Dermawand came to me in a plain shipping box. The Dermawand was not packaged in any type of professional manufacturer's packaging. The cord was loose, the items scattered in the shipping box. Also, according to the direction

ICTV Brands Response • May 22, 2018

We apologize for any frustration or misunderstanding, however, our offer terms are stated very clearly in various locations throughout our website. We have also pulled the call recordings to review and each agent the customer spoke with reiterated these terms as well. This customer has, however, already been refunded for any inconvenience.

ICTV Brands Response • Jun 12, 2018

We are sorry to hear that *** feels this way, however, we can assure her that we did not send a used DermaWand. All products shipped from our warehouse are brand new. Furthermore, we have listened to the calls between our customer service agents and ***. All agents followed company policy and were very accommodating to ***'s questions and requests. As for her concern with the return policy, as can be seen in the attached packing slip, we pay for the cost to return the device if the customer follows the proper return policy. The initial fee of $14.95 is non-refundable, however, as stated on our website. Customer service is very important to us. We have already refunded *** but are willing to assist in any way to make her happy and satisfied with her DermaWand experience.

Complaint: ***

I am rejecting this response because:#1 - An ICTV sales representative CALLED me and told me that if I did not 'love' the product after trying it for 30 days, I could return it at absolutely no out-of-pocket expense to me. I asked her pointedly if that included shipping charges and she told me they would pay shipping charges. I was also told that I could keep the sample ointments and creams. #2 - I was not sent a new, professionally packaged unit. The item was thrown into a shipping box. The unit had been previously used because according to the directions, a new unit takes time to warm up. My unit started immediately. I fully believe at this time that the company cuts their losses by shipping previously returned items under the guise of new products. #3 - I was not made aware of any such return policy before I called to a request an return-authorization form.#4 - I made a concerted attempt to return the product three days after receipt. An ICTV rep hung up on me and my number was blocked after I suggested playing the audio tape of the order discussion as proof.#5 - Since this time, I have read other negative reports against ICTV. One instance a woman returned the product to ICTV and ICTV claimed that the unit was not in the box.I am currently seeking others who have had such experiences with ICTV in hopes of creating a united front against this egregious company.Regards

I tried to return the *** product within the 30 day free trial, and asked the company to send a return postage stamp so the item could be returned. The company did not send me a return label, allowing the 30 day trial to expire. When I called to see if I could return the item, yet again, they would not let me and were going to charge me a $200 fee. They then extended the trial to 60 days without my permission and I still did not receive the postage before it expired on April 8th. I explained that I needed to return this product urgently due to my fixed income and inability to pay the fee. I then explained that I am disabled and in a nursing facility with a fixed income and that I could not make that payment. I asked to speak to a supervisor, but my efforts were denied and disregarded.

ICTV Brands Response • May 09, 2018

Customer ordered *** on January 29 and was able to take advantage of our 30 day risk-free trial. The customer was correct in stating that she called customer service for a return label within the risk-free trial, however, accepted an extended trial period. This new trial period came to an end at the end of March. Since the customer did not call back for a return until April 18, she was three weeks out of the trial period. Because of this, a return could no longer be accepted.

I purchased a no no from their "official" website on or about January 1 of 2018. I waited for the product to be delivered, and received nothing. My bank account had been charged the initial $191, which was not supposed to be charged until after I had received the product. By February 1st, I still had not received it. I called customer service. It was a polite interaction, and they promised to send out a new one, it appeared to be an address mistake. (South instead of North on address line The representative assured me I would not be charged again until I received it. We confirmed the address. By the end of mid February, still no product. I called again, they claimed the it was undeliverable. I request a refund. They stated I had to talk to the post office. I investigate the package, turns out it again was send to the wrong address (again South, and with zip code 90006 instead of 90026. then I was charged an additional $91 I call again and I request a refund. They refuse until it reaches their "warehouse". The operator then preceded to state I had failed to go to the post office to pick it up, And it was my fault. I asked to speak to a manager, they stated one was not available. It is abundantly clear I have not received the product, and the tracking number clearly illustrates I have not received the product, and several calls they continue to refuse the refund. I have never been so badly treated or dismissively treated and charged for the behavior. This is not good business or professional behavior.

ICTV Brands Response • Mar 19, 2018

As can be seen in the attached documents, the initial order was placed over the web where the customer accidentally put the wrong shipping address. Because of this, the US Postal Service could not successfully deliver the package. When the customer called our Customer Support team, our agent re-shipped the product free of charge. Also shown in the attached documents, it appears that the product was once again shipped to the wrong address. With this being a mistake on our end, we would be willing to send the customer another device from the corporate office, being sure that the device is shipped to the proper address or cancel the pending multi-pay charges and refund the customer the $198.85 already paid.
