I contracted with 3 Day Blinds on 12/02/2023 to have vertical blinds and "specialty shapes" created for my home. On 12/07/2023 a representative measured the windows. On 02/08/2024 during installation it was discovered that the "specialty shapes" were incorrect. I have been contacting 3 Day Blinds repeatedly for resolution. On 03/06/2024 3 Day Blinds said they would not re-make the specialty blinds. Because they are unwilling to meet the terms for our agreement I am asking for a full refund of my purchase. A partial refund is not acceptable as the whole point of contracting with 3 Day Blinds was to have a cohesive window treatment across the rooms of my home that face the street. Having only vertical blinds without the specialty shape fails to achieve this goal.Business Response

3 Day Blinds apologizes for the issues with the specialty shapes. Our Leadership Team is reviewing the account and a representative will be contacting the customer within 2 business days to discuss the order. We will continue to monitor case # CAS-02810600 through its completion.Initial Complaint

On 08/23/23, I ordered custom blinds from 3-Day blinds (original invoice/contract attached). On January 8, 2024, I returned from vacation to find that two of the automatic blinds were no longer working properly and that they looked to have been tampered with. I discovered that the housekeeper had accidently tried to manually put the blinds down without using the automatic controller. On January 9, 2024, I contacted **************** and spoke with *************************. She asked me to send her a picture of the blinds (please see attached email), which I did. After examining the picture, and allegedly consulting with the technicians, she told me the blinds could not be repaired and would have to be completely replaced. She would not offer any type of warranty, nor did she believe it necessary to have someone come to the house to inspect the blinds in person. As a result, I had to re-order new custom blinds for $2859.95 (see attached receipt). On March 7, 2024, the blinds came for installation. When the installer came, he took one quick look at the blinds, and simply pulled cords down to fix them. It turns out, the problem was easily remediated and the installer told me it happens to these blinds all the time. He did not even bother to hang the new blinds. I now have a second set of custom blinds that I have no use for, and am out an additional $2859.95. Despite my efforts to contact 3-Day blinds, (again, see attached) and to put in a formal customer inquiry (which I did on their site), I have heard nothing back. iBusiness Response

Ordered drapes on 1/30/24. I paid $2,108.98 by check Called my representative to cancel 2/2/24 and have emails from 2/6/24 confirming cancelation and refund. I have been told it takes 7-21 workiing days to receive a refund check. I have not received my refund, despite many attempts (calls and emails). Even today, they shuttle my calls and cannot commit to a resolution.Business Response

Date: 03/18/2024
Regretably, this complaint is NOT RESOLVED. I have NOT RECEIVED A REFUND! 3 Day Blinds contends they sent a check (now over 30 working days following cancellation) and they have established this check was not cashed. I do not have a problem with my home mail deliveries. I never received a check from 3 Day Blinds. They will not provide me with information on how they will be regenerating the missing refund which exceeds two thousand dollars. This delay in handling the refund is excessive and a burden for me. It has been over five days since they confirmed a check from them was not cashed and I have not been able to get 3 Day Blinds to return my calls and texts. Please help with this problem!Business Response

This is the worst company Ive ever had to deal with. I hope bbb recognizes their delays in refunding and their lack of response to me as their customer. ********************** held my money for 2 months and provided little response to my requests for openness in solving the refund solution. I hope that bbb reviews the other complaints regarding this company and helps to warn others.Initial Complaint

A set of faux wood blinds from my kitchen were picked up by a representative from Rayline, 3-Day's install and repair sub-contractor, on January 15, 2024 for repair. The case number assigned to this repair is CAS *******. On January 29, I followed up to find out the status of repair and talked to ******* who told me that no return order had been set up for the blinds to be returned to me once the repair was completed. She told me she had created a return order and sent it to Rayline via email. On February 13, I followed up again with 3-Day and talked to ****. She told me that there was confusion on the repair order because two case numbers had been assigned to it and again, that there was no return order. She indicated that a part of the delay could be difficulty getting repair parts. At the end of the call she said ******* would contract me with information on the estimated time of repair, and that the Case Manager, *******, would contact me in ***** hours. Neither of those things happened. On Febrary 21, I called 3-Day again and talked with *********************************. She was very apologetic but could still not tell me the status of the repair.. She again reached out to Rayline to get information and said she sent an email for them to contact me with a repair completion date estimate and said that she would make sure *******, the Case Manager was in the loop. I still have not heard from either Rayline or 3-Day, so on March 3, I contacted ******* directly and spoke to a scheduler named ******, She also said she would reach out to 3-Day and her installation supervisor and someone would call me back. As of today, 3/10/24, I haven't heard from either 3-Day or their repair sub-contractor about the status of my blinds. Since I have had to have repairs done on other blinds, I know that it should not take this long. I feel certain that that blinds are lost or were discarded by the technician, *****************, who picked them up.Business Response

Their initial response does not vary from what I've already been told from my ongoing follow-up. I want to know exactly what they are planning to do in the event that the blinds taken for repair cannot be located. Since the my initial order of blinds from 3-Day were installed in 2021, I have had to have three sets repaired, one set re-installed, and one set completely remanufactured and installed. That does not include the initial errors made with the first order which cost me a second installation. I am not confident that 3-Day will follow through on their actions. I have completely lost confidence in them and was surprised to find that they are A+ rated by BBB.Business Response

The repair has been completed and the blind reinstalled, however, the after-action report sent by the installer to 3-Day blinds contains several false statements. I was present when the repair was completed. In fact, the installer did not bring any tools and had to use my drill/driver to properly re-install the blinds. In addition, I provided the shim that was used in the reinstall. He was not at all prepared for the task and scraped the paint when trying to put up the valance, which he did not know how to do. In addition, it is now clear to me that the initial install was done incorrectly and probably contributed to the failure of the blinds. If any future blinds from my unfortunate 3_Day purchase fail, I will discard all of them and start over with a more reputable company who cares about its customers and quality control in the manufacturing process. This has been a nightmare, and these blinds are not even 3 years old.Initial Complaint

3Day Blind Salesperson *********************** sold me draperies in which was told were made 100% in 3Day facility and not a Third-Party. This was a lie among a few others she made. The purchase was made on 12/18/2023. The draperies were finally ready for installation February 27, 2024.As part of the contract, they charge your credit card the full balance prior to delivery of installation. There should be some ability for customers to view a sample or make payment same day once they see the draperies in person to confirm. The draperies for Master Bedroom were incorrect color. So they spend a week going through the reorder approval process and now have to send order out to Third ********************* another 6 weeks minimum. By the time of installation this will end up being 6 months for these drapery panels. This fact alone is completely inexcusable and NO other company I have ever dealt with from window shutters to flooring to wallpaper, lighting etc will make a customer go through a simple order and wait 6 months after they screwed up the initial order.To make matters worse, the installer put the drapery rods up crooked and to remove and remount 2 brackets creating extra holes in a wall. Also, the installer put in black concrete screws into the brackets which show terrible against the brushed stainless bracket and white wall. There should be some s**** cap covers or something. Who spends over $6,000 to have brackets showing black screws? This is a joke right? Wait, there is more, there are still two brackets that are not even touching the drapery rod with a 1/4 inch gap. I contacted the salesperson twice. I first called her right when installer arrived with wrong color draperies and she tried gaslighting me. Then I texted her right after installer left and sent her pictures and she ghosts me. I seek full refund as I am going to have to have walls fixed and with new rods and new draperies ordered with a real, trustworthy company. 3Day is extremely unethical.Business Response

On Friday 3/1/24 3 Day Blinds installed product at my home. The product installed in my master bedroom and bathroom had large gaps on one side that was inconsistent with the verbal explanation and all advertisements/pictures shared during the sales consultation. I have called 3 times to the customer care line to resolve the issue. All three times they commit to making it right. They then put me on hold saying they are working on reaching someone to help me. The first time I was on hold for 24 minutes and then disconnected. The second time I was on hold for 33 minutes and then disconnected. Tonight I have been on hold for 1 hour and 44 minutes.Business Response

I called this morning again and spoke to someone briefly. I was finally given a case number. Apparently there are two associated with my complaint. Case # ******** and Case # *******. The individual was not clear why there are two case numbers. They committed to having someone call me at 11:30 to schedule a follow up appointment in my home for Friday afternoon.

We are reaching out to facilitate immediate repayment from 3 Day Blinds in response to an unauthorized credit card charge in the amount of $6995.19. We never signed our contract as we had explicitly stated we would not be ready to place our order or pay until a later date. Our card was charged anyway without our knowledge. We spoke with 6 different employees of the company today, none of whom took any accountability for the unauthorized charge or helped to expedite the rightful return of funds. We were told that the charge had been reversed and we would see it back on our credit card in 7-10 days. We cannot wait this long to receive such a large amount of funds back that was unlawfully taken from us. We are in a hole, and our credit card has now been frozen due to the dispute. If I am able to pay someone $7000 and it reach their bank account same-day, there is no reason why a large company cannot do this, especially when they unlawfully took funds from their customer. We are seeking the help of ******************** to get these funds back to us ASAP, rather than having to wait a week or more, as we have other payments we need to make immediately. My second reason for posting is to inform other potential customers of a major headache this company has caused, with slow (and not yet realized) resolution of a colossal error. If you are trying to decide between 3 Day Blinds and another company, unfortunately I cannot vouch for the integrity of this company or their product, as we will obviously be taking our business elsewhere.Business Response

A member of 3 Day Blinds Leadership Team spoke with the customer on 3/1/24 and informed the customer the refund request was processed. Refunds may take 7-10 days to appear on statements from the customer's financial institution.

On Feb 12th I contacted 3 day blinds to inform them of an issue I am having with my automatic blinds not charging properly. It took 9 days to receive an email stating that they are going to provide me a case number and assistance by the way of a call from an associate to schedule assistance. It is now 28 February and I havent received said call and I sent an email asking for an update. There seems to be a disconnect when it comes to responding and *************** on the promise of assurance.
