I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ***, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
Completely falseI did not receive any emails days or days prior that they would be shipping an orderOn the initial sign up it says to send a response with what wines we like to START receiving shipments of wineI never sent any information back or filled out a profile, "selecting my wines"These are deceptive practices and they know exactly what they are doingThe ONLY emails I received that my items were shipped was on the *** of November which were the wine samples and an email the *** of December of for this order.
I did not receive an email on how to cancel, if you go to the page it says to cancel your membership to send an email to the company or to call during business hoursI emailed on the *** of December at 9:AM requesting cancellation and they cancelled my membership on the *** of December.
I will not accept the shipment as it states someone over has to sign for it and I would like to know when they will process the refund of $to my account.

The first contact Tasting Room received from *** was a voicemail left on 8/**/14, requesting a cancellation of her accountPlease note that ***'s August shipment was processed earlier on the same dayThe Tasting Room's policy, which *** agreed to upon enrollment, is that orders cannot be canceled once they are processedIn response to the voicemail, ***'s membership was cancelled and a confirmation was sent to the email address registered on her accountThis email stated that any orders that were processed would still be shipped
On the date of 8/**/14, *** left another voicemail for the Tasting Room service departmentAn email was sent to *** confirming that her membership was canceled and included the tracking information for her latest (and last) wine club shipment
Tasting Room has no record of any contact, by email or phone, from ***, before the date of 8/**/Our business logs all emails, voicemails and recordings of phone calls received by through our customer service departmentUnfortunately, the logs show no earlier contact from ***, either from her email address or phone number registered to her accountThe first record of contact was 8/**/14, after her August shipment was charged and an email notification of the new order was sent out to her.
We can confirm that ***'s account is canceled, unless she choses to reactivate her subscription at a later dateThis means no further shipments will be sentAs we have no record of an account cancellation request prior to her August shipment being charged and processed, the Tasting Room cannot issue a refund or accept a return per the Terms of Service *** agreed to upon enrollmentThis information is publicly posted on the Tasting Room website, in our Frequently Asked Questions section, as well as available for review during enrollment, before submitting credit card payment.

If you need any further information, please let us knowWe are happy to provide additional documentationThank you for your help in resolving this complaint

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attentionWe have reviewed *** ***’s complaint and have supplied further details and documentation to support our claim.
To give a little background, Tasting Room is a wine club business, and upon joining, our members agree to
receive automatic shipments until they cancel their subscriptionThe first shipment is sent out at the start of a membershipThis includes a tasting calibration kit featuring six mini-bottles of wine samplesRating these samples through our website will generate your red and white wine “profiles” and your future shipments will be customized based on the taste preferences that emerge from your rating submissions
While our company encourages our club members to rate the tasting kits, we do not require that members submit ratingsIf a member chooses not to submit their tasting kit ratings, subsequent shipments will still be processed and sent for the duration of the membership
We do state, during the enrollment process and publicly, on our website, in our Frequently Asked Questions section, that shipments will be sent automatically unless the member contacts us to cancel their membershipAdditionally, we state that orders cannot be canceledWe make no claim that shipments are only sent after a tasting kit rating is submitted.
In regards to *** ***’s complaint, we confirm that he was enrolled in the Tasting Room wine club between the dates of 3/*/and 4/*/Upon enrollment, and before his payment was processed, *** *** agreed to the club’s terms and conditions, including the details outlined above
On the date of 3/*/14, his tasting kit shipment was shipped out with UPSAn email notification was sent to *** *** with his tracking number, so he would know the date on which deliveries would be attemptedSubsequently, UPS made their standard three delivery attempts on 3/*/14, 3/*/and 3/*/No one was available to sign for the delivery (an adult signature is required by law, as the shipment contained alcohol)UPS then held the package for piuntil the date of 3/**/As *** *** did not pick up his package, UPS returned it to our shipping warehouse.
The returned package arrived back to the warehouse on 3/**/That same day, one of our service representatives emailed *** *** to let him know the package was returnedShe asked that he confirm the shipping address on file was correct before she processed a replacement shipment for the returned kit
*** *** did not contact our service department back until the date of 4/*/In the meantime, as part of his membership agreement, his next shipment was automatically processed, shipped and deliveredThis shipment featured six standard (750mL) bottles of wine and a total of $was charged to *** ***’s credit card
Multiple notification emails were sent to *** ***, letting him know that the shipment would be processedThis was followed by an email notifying him of the shipment details after the order was processedFurther, an email with his tracking number was sent upon the package being shippedDuring the period leading up to his next order, *** *** could also log into his Tasting Room account to view the same information that we emailed to him.
On the date of 4/*/14, *** ***’s second shipment from the Tasting Room was successfully delivered by UPSOn the following day, 4/*/14, *** *** replied directly to the email our service team had sent him on 3/**/14, and stated that he had not received his first shipment, for the tasting kitHe also requested that we stop the automatic shipments and billing for his account and inquired whether a refund, for the returned kit shipment, would be processed.
On the date of 4/*/14, our service representative processed a full refund of $for the returned tasting kit shipment, back to *** ***’s credit cardAdditionally, the representative canceled *** ***’s wine club membershipA cancellation confirmation email was sent out to *** *** and our representative also sent him another email confirming that his membership was canceled and that a refund was processed for the returned tasting kit.
In reply to our representative, *** *** then requested a refund and return shipping label for the second shipment of wine that was delivered to him while his subscription was still activeOur representative explained that we could not accept a return or issue a refund for the shipment, as *** *** did not cancel his membership before the order had been processed and deliveredThe representative also explained that it is not our club’s policy to require that our members rate their tasting kits before further shipments are processed, as *** *** seemed to misunderstand this part of our service agreement.
The correspondence between our representative and *** *** is attachedIt begins on the 3/**/14, the day we initiated the exchange, by sending *** *** an email about his returned package notificationWhile we are sorry that the club was not to *** ***’s liking, our business upheld our agreement with himHis shipments were sent on the schedule; he was provided with the dates on which his orders would be processed; he was sent email reminders before his second shipment was charged; he was sent tracking numbers for both of his shipmentsAdditionally, we reached out when his first package was returned, to confirm the best address to send a replacement shipment to (at no additional cost to *** ***)Upon his request, we refunded him for the returned shipment and canceled his membership so no further shipments or charges would be incurred.
The $refund that *** *** is requesting is for a shipment that was processed and delivered to him before he canceled his membershipWe hope the explanation above, as well as a review of our business’ terms and conditions, will show that *** *** is not entitled to a further refund from our company as he did not request a membership cancelation until after his shipment was processed and delivered.
If *** *** is unhappy with the quality of the wines he received, he is welcome to contact our service department (***), as noted in our FAQsWe are happy to offer a website credit, redeemable with our parent company, Lot18, an online wine retailer.
We appreciate the Revdex.com’s time and assistance in resolving this complaintIf any further information is needed, please let us knowWe are happy to provide whatever documentation is needed.

I never rated the sample wines sent to me and I contacted them the day after I received their email advising me of the shipmentI find their business practice of shipping product without hearing from their customers to be sneaky for lack of a better term and does not promote good customer relationsWhy would I agree to take full bottles of wine that I never tasted or ratedMy so called profile was 3-questions regarding things like how I drink my coffee or what type of fruit I likeIn all honesty I was ordering the samples to give to my older son who is more of a wine drinker than myselfSince he lives in Manhattan and I live in New Jersey I hadn't been able to give the samples to himI refused delivery of the wine on 9-** and expect a refund before I consider this matter closed

Well I appreciate the fact that you at least responded to my complaint, but you didn't really address 90% it. In fact your response seems as if you didn't even read my complaint. You kinda addressed the cancellation issue, but again failed to see that my complaint mentioned I DID try to cancel online. It doesn't let you. When I finally found the place to cancel I clicked it and was redirected and told to email in my cancellation. I did email your company on April *** to cancel my membership, but DID NOT receive a response. I had to call in two additional times to get it canceled and on April *** it was finally canceleddays after my initial email requesting my account be canceled right away.
Also, you failed to address the return issues. You make it sound like returning the wine is not a problem, but it really is. The main problem is that as a customer I AM NOT LEGALLY ALLOWED to ship wine across state lines, so how on earth would I return the wine? You guys don't provide return shipping labels which is what I asked for. I was clear when asking that I expected to have to cover the cost of the return shipping, but even with that I was told by customer service that you guys DO NOT do that. So your return policy is not at all customer friendly and is in fact rather misleading. I'm not even sure you have a license to ship wine to Florida for that matter. I know you guys use a winery partner in California to "ship" your wine since you as a company are not allowed to ship wine across certain state lines, only a winery can ship itYou didn't address the rudeness at which your customer service agent spoke to me as a customer when I called in to request the return either!
I don't think my request for a prepaid return shipping label (at my expense) and a refund of both of my unopened orders, that are still sealed inside the original box you sent them in is very much. Especially since you offer returns, and 100% customer satisfaction!

Please note that Tasting Room attempts to reach all customers via email with courtesy reminders about upcoming shipmentsThese are sent both and days prior to the next order processing dateWhile we cannot guarantee that emails will be received or read by customers, this is our standard practiceSo, in addition to being informed of the timeline for order processing in the Offer Details on the enrollment form, customers receive multiple courtesy email reminders and can also find this information, online, in their account at ***
After receiving the email notification that the order had been processed, the customer contacted the Tasting Room customer service department and canceled the membershipAs the customer notes in their text, they were informed that processed orders cannot be canceled and that they could return the shipment to receive a refund for the wine (less original shipping) and a $return shipping fee would applyThis policy is explained on our website, in the FAQs and the TermsHere is the policy, as it is shown on our publicly accessible Frequently Asked Questions:
"What if I refuse my shipment?
If your order is undeliverable and is returned to us we will process the return and refund your card, minus any original shipping charges, and charge a $return shipping fee."
The customer refused the shipment with *** and the package was subsequently returned to our fulfillment centerA refund for the value of the wine, less shipping, was processed on 8/**/and a $return shipping fee was charged, per the Returns policyThe customer was notified via email when the refund was issued.
Please also note that our FAQs and Terms are clear that processed orders cannot be canceledThis is the policy as it's stated in the FAQs:
"Cancelling your membership will cancel any upcoming orders that have not yet been processedPlease keep in mind that orders cannot be cancelled once they are processedAny orders processed before a membership cancellation is requested will still be shipped."
At this point, the customer's account has been canceled and a refund was issued for the returned shipmentNo further orders will be charged or processed unless the customer reactivates the membership at a later date. As we have demonstrated, the customer was fully informed of the Offer Details prior to enrollment and our website states our policies regarding order cancellations and return shipments

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ***, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
Whereas it is true that I missed the fine print, I did call to cancel the shipment when I saw that my credit card was being chargedThe merchant refused to cancel stating it was 'in processing', when in fact later that day I received a statement that the wine was shipped several hours AFTER my request to cancelYes, they can claim "letter of the law" but we both know that they could have reached out and stopped that processing and saved me the inconvenience of returning it AND charging for shipping AND re charging the $restocking fee

Thanks for letting us knowThis issue was resolved on 5/*/I personally spoke with *** *** after receiving the Revdex.com complaint notificationAfter thoroughly checking our records, I can confirm that our business did not receive the email he mentioned in his complaintThis is why our
customer service department did not follow up with him initially
Please note that we have, in the past, received and responded to other emails from *** ***Previously, he corresponded with one of our member service representatives about a missing package that UPS claimed was delivered to his shipping addressIn that case, our company filed a claim with UPS for the lost package and sent *** *** a replacement shipment at no additional charge.
After our telephone conversation, on 5/*/14, *** *** was issued a refund totaling $for the three bottles of wine he found unsatisfactoryHis bank accepted the refund total on the date of 5/*/14.
I have attached the email, sent to *** ***, after our telephone conversation which confirmed that a refund had been processed.
Please let us know if you need anything else in order to resolve this complaintWe are happy to provide whatever you need

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ***, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
I am disputing that my wine shipment was actually processedJust because my card was charged, the wine was not yet shipped and could have been stoppedThis would prevent the shipping charges and re stock feeThere was ample time for the business to pull that order PRIOR to shipping based on my phone request, but no effort was made to do so
