The customer has been in ongoing communication with Zazzle.com via email since 07/09/2015, inquiring on the status of their missing earnings of $It was noted that on 06/17/at 9:17am, a request for payment was madeThis prompted a
payment to be issued, minus the $service fee for check payments requested under $A check for $was issued on the 7/15/Zazzle PayoutThe customer received this payment and sent the check back to Zazzle, requesting for the check to be cancelled, and placed back into their Zazzle AccountAs per customer request, Zazzle authorized the check to be cancelled and the full amount has since been credited back to their Zazzle account
Complaint:***I am rejecting this response because:
First I was told by Zazzle that the matter of the link disconnect would be sent to to their 'Tech Team'
Second email follow up - I was told their 'Tech Team' was 'working on it'
Third email stated product was out-of-stock by someone in their Media Group - serioisly???
Does the right hand know what the left hand is doing?
Out-of-stock products on all online businesses are either labeled OUT OF STOCK, 'grayed out', or at least product icons that should be visible to potential customers and are not working for whatever the 'reason of the day' is, should NOT BE VISIBLEWhat company leaves a customer wondering 'why bother'...it doesn't work?
It is always 'smoke and mirrors' between Zazzle and their designersIt's either the computer's fault or 'the Tech Team' is working on itOne form email after anotherOne would think that by they would know what they are doing....long shot at best.Sincerely,Maryann ***

After further review, I saw that the refund for the purchase of the throw blanket was actually processed on January 7, and made it to my account on January 8, Initially Zazzle said that it would take 7-business days after the order was canceled on January 6th before the funds would make it into my account so I didn't check the account until around January 20th to give the appropriate amount of time for the funds to make it into my account based on the timeline zazzle had given meHowever, the funds made it into my account earlier than I was told they would so Zazzle did refund me the full price of the throw blanket and express shipping earlier than I expected them toBeing that it was earlier than I expected, I didn't check those dates and therefore didn't see the refundThank you Revdex.com for assisting in getting this taken care of and thank you Zazzle for getting me refunded
Revdex.com:I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me Even though the business remedied the situation after over a month and A LOT of hassle, I would hope that their conduct would reflect in some way on their Revdex.com score The conduct of this business and the numerous reps that I communicated with is appalling and I hope that negative impact on their business may result in some improvement Sincerely, *** ***
The customer purchased a greeting card from the Zazzle website on 04/10/16. The order was shipped on 04/13/16. The customer contacted Zazzle Customer Support via e-mail on 04/14/to state the order was received later than expected. The Zazzle Customer Support agent offered the
customer a Zazzle account credit to be used on a future purchase. The customer declined this offer and requested a full refund for the order. The customer was issued a full refund on 04/17/and was sent an e-mail notifying them the refund had been processed. As a courtesy, Zazzle also waived the return of the product

The customer contacted Zazzle.com via phone on 11/13/regarding an earnings payment that was anticipated for the month of NovemberUnfortunately, Zazzle determined the name the customer listed in the account did not match the name
associated with the Tax ID the customer provided, which resulted in the canceled earnings
Upon review of the customer's account, the customer's payment settings were complete prior to 10/9/2015, as a payment was successfully made on 8/3/Zazzle can confirm the customer made a modification to the payment settings page on 10/9/2015, at which time, the name the customer listed in the account no longer matched what the IRS had on file (or the payment for November would not have been canceled)
A Zazzle account specialist was assigned to the customer, and the customer was sent an email on 11/16/with an explanation as to why the customer's earnings had been canceledZazzle recommended the customer make the necessary changes to their payment settings page, and the earnings would then be sent in Zazzle's next payment cycle

Zazzle acknowledges the customer did not become an active designer until this yearHowever, Zazzle messaged all designers on 3/18/via an email newsletter that changes would occur with their accounts and the information that was required to prevent any unnecessary delays with future paymentsZazzle also posted this information in the Zazzle forums (a place for the design contributor community) https://forum.zazzle.com/news, and the Zazzle blog: http://blog.zazzle.com/2015/03/13/updated-payment-information-pageThis information is posted and available for viewing
Zazzle has confirmed the customer's payment settings were updated by the customer on 11/16/If the customer's information matches what is on file with the IRS, the customer will be issued a payment no later than December 15, As Zazzle's payout cycle happens only once per month (on or before the 15th), if there are any additional modifications to the customer's payment settings, it will result in a day delay of the payment
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 8, 2015/12/01) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
When I initially called Zazzle I was told that my payout was not made because I had changed my threshold amount back in OctoberI was told if you change your payment settings before the next payment cycle, your payment gets delayed an additional daysWell, lo and behold, nowhere on Zazzle's User Policy does it say anything about that and I was completely thrown for a loop!
It was not until I sent an email to the CEO of Zazzle that I received contact from Zazzle's Finance Dept who miraculously attempted to call me AND email me that the information I was given from their customer service agent was not accurate
I did not join Zazzle as a Design Associate until around April 22, (AFTER) Zazzle messaged all its designersFurther, I was unaware of any forum or blog until November
Zazzle is using bad business practices by cancelling their designer's payments without a direct email to advise them if there is a problem which will delay their paymentsThis is unfair and inexcusableZazzle is taking no ownership that they need to adjust their business practicesCopying and pasting a summary of their CYA user agreement which pretty much states "We change what we want when we wantIf you don't get it it's pretty much on youIf you don't like it, then that's on you too" speaks volumes
My money is already past due to be paid to meWhat business ethic is it to make someone wait an additional days to receive their money if you have it? As Zazzle states "it has been confirmed the customer's payment settings were updated by the customer on 11/16/2015." The designer gets paid every daysIf there is an issue with their payment, Zazzle will not send you an email to let you know ahead of timeIt is up to you to read the blogs and forums and unarchive a message dated 03/Zazzle will delay your payment an additional days, which will accumulate to days if not furtherThis is unfair business practices and absurdNo one can seem to explain the rationale behind thisAnd I want an explanation

The customer placed an order on the Zazzle website for invitations on 09/03/Unfortunately, it appears this order was delayed in production due to the customer's design which had some text outside of the safe area for printingDue to the
design, the customer's text was cut off on the invitationZazzle's Image Team did work to correct this issue on the customer's behalfThe customer contacted Zazzle Customer Support by phone on 09/to obtain a status on his order and also placed a follow up call on 09/15/to get another status updateThe order was escalated to Zazzle's Production Team who worked to get the order to the customer as soon as possibleAs a courtesy for the delay, a shipping refund was issued to the customerThe customer can expect this refund in 7-business days depending on the policies of their financial institutionThe shipping on the order was upgraded to Express so when the order shipped out, it would be received the following business dayThe order was shipped Express on 09/15/and according to the tracking information provided by UPS, the order was delivered on 09/16/

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
If the production department would've contacted us as far as problems occurring with the invitation as soon as it was discovered, I would've been satisfied with their honesty because it would've given us enough time to take my business somewhere elseInstead, by keeping us in the dark and not giving us any information as to WHY there was such a delayThe only repeated response the we received was that they were going to send an email to the production teamBy constantly hearing this line all it did was increase our irritation towards this company and how it handles it's business and customers
When we finally did receive the invitations, on the 16th of September, we saw no reason as to why we have them anymore because what good are invitations to pass *** if there's no way they can be delivered on time to anyone, especially the ones that live out of townThe only reason we ordered from them in the first place was because according to their site, it would take approximately business days to make and approximately business days to deliverThe order was placed days BEFORE the party, expecting to receive them roughly days before the party (days plus days plus the weekend and holiday)
Due to the embarrassment of having a child's party with only a few children showing up, the only way I can see ANY type of satisfaction out of this horrible experience is the we return the invitations and get a full refundAll this could've been avoided if we would've known RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING about the print problemsThis problem was ONLY brought to our attention through the email from the Revdex.comWe await to see how this develops

Quantity pricing is not the same thing as a promotional discount
Customers receive a reduced price for purchasing larger quantitiesThat is the price charged for the itemThe Zazzle website offered a 20% "sale" for orders made by a specific date (Sunday night)The Zazzle customer service was closed when I tried to call
This company seems to be mixing up the incentive to place a large quantity order with an "advertised sale" promoted on their website

(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)
After further review, I saw that the refund for the purchase of the throw blanket was actually processed on January 7, and made it to my account on January 8, Initially Zazzle said that it would take 7-business days after the order was canceled on January 6th before the funds would make it into my account so I didn't check the account until around January 20th to give the appropriate amount of time for the funds to make it into my account based on the timeline zazzle had given meHowever, the funds made it into my account earlier than I was told they would so Zazzle did refund me the full price of the throw blanket and express shipping earlier than I expected them toBeing that it was earlier than I expected, I didn't check those dates and therefore didn't see the refundThank you Revdex.com for assisting in getting this taken care of and thank you Zazzle for getting me refunded
Revdex.com:I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me Even though the business remedied the situation after over a month and A LOT of hassle, I would hope that their conduct would reflect in some way on their Revdex.com score The conduct of this business and the numerous reps that I communicated with is appalling and I hope that negative impact on their business may result in some improvement Sincerely, *** ***
The customer purchased a greeting card from the Zazzle website on 04/10/16. The order was shipped on 04/13/16. The customer contacted Zazzle Customer Support via e-mail on 04/14/to state the order was received later than expected. The Zazzle Customer Support agent offered the
customer a Zazzle account credit to be used on a future purchase. The customer declined this offer and requested a full refund for the order. The customer was issued a full refund on 04/17/and was sent an e-mail notifying them the refund had been processed. As a courtesy, Zazzle also waived the return of the product

The customer contacted Zazzle.com via phone on 11/13/regarding an earnings payment that was anticipated for the month of NovemberUnfortunately, Zazzle determined the name the customer listed in the account did not match the name
associated with the Tax ID the customer provided, which resulted in the canceled earnings
Upon review of the customer's account, the customer's payment settings were complete prior to 10/9/2015, as a payment was successfully made on 8/3/Zazzle can confirm the customer made a modification to the payment settings page on 10/9/2015, at which time, the name the customer listed in the account no longer matched what the IRS had on file (or the payment for November would not have been canceled)
A Zazzle account specialist was assigned to the customer, and the customer was sent an email on 11/16/with an explanation as to why the customer's earnings had been canceledZazzle recommended the customer make the necessary changes to their payment settings page, and the earnings would then be sent in Zazzle's next payment cycle

Zazzle acknowledges the customer did not become an active designer until this yearHowever, Zazzle messaged all designers on 3/18/via an email newsletter that changes would occur with their accounts and the information that was required to prevent any unnecessary delays with future paymentsZazzle also posted this information in the Zazzle forums (a place for the design contributor community) https://forum.zazzle.com/news, and the Zazzle blog: http://blog.zazzle.com/2015/03/13/updated-payment-information-pageThis information is posted and available for viewing
Zazzle has confirmed the customer's payment settings were updated by the customer on 11/16/If the customer's information matches what is on file with the IRS, the customer will be issued a payment no later than December 15, As Zazzle's payout cycle happens only once per month (on or before the 15th), if there are any additional modifications to the customer's payment settings, it will result in a day delay of the payment

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
When I initially called Zazzle I was told that my payout was not made because I had changed my threshold amount back in OctoberI was told if you change your payment settings before the next payment cycle, your payment gets delayed an additional daysWell, lo and behold, nowhere on Zazzle's User Policy does it say anything about that and I was completely thrown for a loop!
It was not until I sent an email to the CEO of Zazzle that I received contact from Zazzle's Finance Dept who miraculously attempted to call me AND email me that the information I was given from their customer service agent was not accurate
I did not join Zazzle as a Design Associate until around April 22, (AFTER) Zazzle messaged all its designersFurther, I was unaware of any forum or blog until November
Zazzle is using bad business practices by cancelling their designer's payments without a direct email to advise them if there is a problem which will delay their paymentsThis is unfair and inexcusableZazzle is taking no ownership that they need to adjust their business practicesCopying and pasting a summary of their CYA user agreement which pretty much states "We change what we want when we wantIf you don't get it it's pretty much on youIf you don't like it, then that's on you too" speaks volumes
My money is already past due to be paid to meWhat business ethic is it to make someone wait an additional days to receive their money if you have it? As Zazzle states "it has been confirmed the customer's payment settings were updated by the customer on 11/16/2015." The designer gets paid every daysIf there is an issue with their payment, Zazzle will not send you an email to let you know ahead of timeIt is up to you to read the blogs and forums and unarchive a message dated 03/Zazzle will delay your payment an additional days, which will accumulate to days if not furtherThis is unfair business practices and absurdNo one can seem to explain the rationale behind thisAnd I want an explanation

The customer placed an order on the Zazzle website for invitations on 09/03/Unfortunately, it appears this order was delayed in production due to the customer's design which had some text outside of the safe area for printingDue to the
design, the customer's text was cut off on the invitationZazzle's Image Team did work to correct this issue on the customer's behalfThe customer contacted Zazzle Customer Support by phone on 09/to obtain a status on his order and also placed a follow up call on 09/15/to get another status updateThe order was escalated to Zazzle's Production Team who worked to get the order to the customer as soon as possibleAs a courtesy for the delay, a shipping refund was issued to the customerThe customer can expect this refund in 7-business days depending on the policies of their financial institutionThe shipping on the order was upgraded to Express so when the order shipped out, it would be received the following business dayThe order was shipped Express on 09/15/and according to the tracking information provided by UPS, the order was delivered on 09/16/

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
If the production department would've contacted us as far as problems occurring with the invitation as soon as it was discovered, I would've been satisfied with their honesty because it would've given us enough time to take my business somewhere elseInstead, by keeping us in the dark and not giving us any information as to WHY there was such a delayThe only repeated response the we received was that they were going to send an email to the production teamBy constantly hearing this line all it did was increase our irritation towards this company and how it handles it's business and customers
When we finally did receive the invitations, on the 16th of September, we saw no reason as to why we have them anymore because what good are invitations to pass *** if there's no way they can be delivered on time to anyone, especially the ones that live out of townThe only reason we ordered from them in the first place was because according to their site, it would take approximately business days to make and approximately business days to deliverThe order was placed days BEFORE the party, expecting to receive them roughly days before the party (days plus days plus the weekend and holiday)
Due to the embarrassment of having a child's party with only a few children showing up, the only way I can see ANY type of satisfaction out of this horrible experience is the we return the invitations and get a full refundAll this could've been avoided if we would've known RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING about the print problemsThis problem was ONLY brought to our attention through the email from the Revdex.comWe await to see how this develops

Quantity pricing is not the same thing as a promotional discount
Customers receive a reduced price for purchasing larger quantitiesThat is the price charged for the itemThe Zazzle website offered a 20% "sale" for orders made by a specific date (Sunday night)The Zazzle customer service was closed when I tried to call
This company seems to be mixing up the incentive to place a large quantity order with an "advertised sale" promoted on their website
This deceptive practice MUST be stopped
