UrthBox

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:
Once again and I have emailed the company
My account online shows exactly the orders - when ordered and order number, etc. They are as follows:
4/- Ordered 3-month subscription $- order #***
6/1 - My 83-year-old mother's 1st box finally arrives - order #
7/- My mother's 2nd gift arrives - order #***
8/- Thinking that my mother is getting every order, every month and she's happy with the boxes she's getting, I order another 3-month set up. I never do know if she really does get the
8/order because SHE'S IN NEW YORK/I'M IN COLORADO AND THERE IS NOTHING ON MY ACCOUNT THAT INDICATES THAT THE DELIVERY WAS MADE. NO TRACKING, NO DATE, NOTHING
9/- My mother's 1st box via the second 3-month subscription I paid for arrives at her door
9/- I order a box for myself (Colorado) order #*** to see exactly what my mother is getting for what I am paying for and I am extremely disappointed both in the quantity and quality of the items in
the $per month box. And because I am extremely cautious of their cancellation clause, I cancel both subscriptions immediately
9/or there abouts, I get an email that states both accounts are cancelled and the October box will be my last. Excuse me, I email them... I still have a November 1st delivery for my mother in New York. They ignore my email.
It isn't until I contact Revdex.com that they (surprisingly?) respond. Well isn't that a coincidence? And phone messages - I don't do phone messages. I'm not about to waste my time on a phone call. I'm the consumer/customer - you work FOR ME
If there is any type of confusion as here it is with their online account tracking. Attached you will see - no tracking number, no delivery date just the assumed 1st of every month when my mother got her order
Oh, and they said the "November" order would ship mid-November to New York. Didn't happen - as you can clearly tell from the attachmentAs for me, I'm done with them. I just do not want any other uninformed consumer to fall in to the same trap

At the end, we informed her about our policies and made sure her subscription did not renew for a third time

We stand by our previous statementWithout a cancellation request prior to the renewal date, as we are a prepaid service, the subscription is cancelled moving forward

Urthbox insists on discussing this matter over the phoneI want all correspondence to be written

We have attempted to reach *** many times to resolve the issue internallyShe proceeded with calling her bank with information as they contact us to discuss what *** statement has mentionedWe will absolutely help her internally and provide her with a resolution as we always try to help our customers as much as possibleShe was provided all the information regarding the renewal at time for purchase and before purchasingShe has understood that she may have overlooked itShe can contact us to proceed with the one time exception that was discussed with her over the phone last week

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: My bank has called them to dispute and yes they only offered to give me out of the
they took out without my knowledge this was on Sep 18, when they agreed to give that amount we have a recording to which they state I will get the refund in 5-business days it is now Sep 27th I have seen no refund hit my bank account so no this matter is not solved. My next step is to talk to an attorney that was recommended to me they have been collecting information on all the people this company stole fromUntil I get the amount that was promised and my Boxes I will not accept.Sincerely

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:
I ordered the Mini Urthbox Free Trial as of April 8th I did not receive the actual trial until June 4th
My dispute is that I received the trial AFTER the 1st of June (took months) which didn't give me the opportunity to actually try
the product before canceling on the 1st of the MonthSecondly, I was in fact, unsatisfied with the products I received.
Thirdly there was nothing stated on the page I purchased the free trial that exactly $would be charged to my account.Sincerely,*** ***

This customer has already been assisted internally, she has been made aware the product in question was not expired as it was just the MFG (manufactured date)We also sincerely apologize for the non-vegan item in her vegan box as this product was sent out in error to only a few accountsWe also
made to sure to send her an entirely new box at no extra cost to her for any of the confusion and frustration this may have causedPlease see attached screenshot of the email thread with her and our support team

receipt.Since we did not get a cancellation request prior to the renewal date, the subscription has been cancelled moving forward and will not charge the customer again as stated in our policies

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:
The fact that the order would be renewed was not made clear to meI was never sent any confirmation email nor an email advising me how long I had to cancel the subscription I didn't know I was signing up for, nor when I would be charged (it's odd that I ordered the alleged trial box on May 8th yet wasn't charged for this "renewal subscription" until July 1st)No part of the order process suggested I would be charged againThis is not acceptable to me, and I want my money backI don't want any more boxes or merchandise from these people; just my refund
Sincerely,*** ***

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because: once again it is a non-response By failing to respond in any way to my complaint that Urthbox provided me no notice that they would be charging my credit card for months' worth of services at once, they concede that they have no justification for charging me and for refusing a refund I continue to demand a refund, which Urthbox continues to ignore I ask that the Revdex.com take this complaint--which is unrebutted--into account should Urthbox ever seek accreditation I also ask that Revdex.com take note of the fact that Urthbox refused even to provide contact information for their escalation unit, which I have now asked for four times I note that I will also be filing a complaint with the *** and CalAG, among others, and that I will be taking other action against the company in the interim. Sincerely,*** ***

Complaint: [redacted]I am rejecting this response because:  they say they will send a cheque in...

the post.  Until I have received the cheque and cashed it the matter is not settled.  If I receive the cheque and If it clears then I will consider the matter closed.  Because Urthbox have promised previously to credit my account and to send a cheque but have failed to do so, I have no faith in them doing so this time.  I cannot trust Urthbox until the money is actually paid and back in my account.Sincerely,[redacted]
