I ordered four cashmere shawls via TMZ Shop (StackCommerce is the online retail platform for TMZ) and was charged $78.30. The order has not been delivered as of 11/8/22. The order number is ********. I got a shipping confirmation email on 10/24/22. When I try to track shipping for any of the four items I repeatedly get a "not found" message. Today is 11/8/22 and I have gotten no further updates on shipping. On 11/7/22 I sent a message to the "Support Team" and got an email back insinuating that the order was delivered and that I should "check with neighbors and family members" to see if they have my order. I responded to that email and have heard nothing back. I am tired of wondering if the order will ever arrive or if I have been ripped off!!!! I just want my money back ASAP.Business Response

Ludicrously unacceptable and criminal to sell Lifetime subscriptions and then cancel/expire them after 5 years. Like so many others I bought a lifetime subscription for PureVPN on Stack Social and now PureVPN refuses to honor it. All directions aim back at Stack Social aka StackCommerce.Business Response

Hi ****,
Thanks for reaching out!
We apologize for any misunderstanding. As a business, we certainly want the transaction to go through and provide you the service that you are looking for.
Just to clarify, Error 900 means that your card is being declined by your bank or the transaction may not have been authorized.
Do you have any idea why you're payment is getting declined?
Were you able to try and checkout again? If not, please do so and if you encounter any issues again, please feel free to let us know.

30 min later I ordered directly from wine insiders and my credit went through. I also talked to my card holder and no stop was put on it. This company did this on their own. Please put this on bad review. The wine they were selling was wine insiders.I also reported this to them because the were a representative of the company.

Hi there,
We are sorry if you're unable to place your order.
As a business, we certainly want your order to go through, otherwise-we wouldn't profit. We don't see any reason to decline any services to you and we certainly want to work it out with you but it doesn't look like you're interested.
We appreciate your feedback and rest assured, we will send this to our developers to provide better service in the future. Please let us know if there's anything else.

On October 1, 2022, I responded to an email I received from StackSocial offering a "Microsoft Office Professional 2021 for Window: Lifetime License (2-Pack)" for $49.99." I purchased the product for a total of $52.48.
Within 3 days of that purchase, I went through the process of installing Office on one computer using License 1. At that point, the two license "Redemption Links" indicated 27 days remaining to redeem each of them. I did not install the second Office that day.
It was not until two weeks later, with 13 days remaining to redeem, that I attempted to redeem the second license and install Office on another computer. This attempt failed with a "license already used" reply. I had not attempted using that license at any time previous to this attempt.
The StackSocial order number for this purchase is ******** and the order was placed as a "guest" since the promotion came to my e-mail box (in this complaint info), an address that is not associated with a StackSocial account.
The ideal remedy for this situation would be for StackSocial to provide me with an unused license in place of the used license that I received.
So far, attempts at communicating with StackSocial about this matter have been fruitless.
An interesting aside: Based upon the product "Redemption Links" that I received, StackSocial appears to be getting these licenses from a third party... that is, each license has this description: "By: Nerdused LTD".....

Stack Commerce provided a replacement licence code that worked. Stack Commerce corrected the situation without knowledge of my complaint to
BBB, as it was only a few days after my filing of the complaint that I received the working code...too soon for this complaint to have been a factor. I appreciate that Stack Commerce ultimately provided the working code even if, at the time, I think, the process could have been easier, i.e., quicker.Initial Complaint

I just purchased a Dollar Flight Club Premium Plus & Lifetime subscription promotion through
************ Shop power by Stack Commerce. They had a promotion for $99. I applied the coupon code and it reflected 100% off when I upgraded to a Premium account.
However, when I looked through my account it says it will expire October 18, 2023 (a year) . And I will be charged $69.
I also checked my credit card and I have a pending charge of $19.70 for applying the promotion code through Dollar Flight Club. When I got the redemption link with instructions they said my credit card wouldn't be charged because it would reflect the lifetime subscription promotion code.
So, I am charged for $99 and an additional charge of $19.70 and I haven't used any flight deals through Dollar flight club yet.
And every time I email Dollar flight club for help. They charge me an additional $0.50.
I am requesting that this business be clear with their promotions and not scam people.Business Response

I purchased an "Amazfit GTS2" smart watch from StackSocial and upon arrival noticed that it was not a "genuine" Amazfit, nor would it hook up to the recommended app from the documentation. I filed my complaint and was basically given 24 hours to respond. I was told the complaint was closed because I had not responded. Just a poor manner in which to conduct business.

I purchased a lifetime license to PureVPN five years ago. At the time, I was given a five year license and told to email stacksocial support to get it renewed every five years. When I did that, I was told that they would not be renewing the license. I was offered an alternative product, which I already have, instead of what I payed for. I would like stacksocial to renew my license with PureVPN and ensure me that it will continue to be renewed as promised when I initially bought the license.Business Response

Hi *********,
Thanks for reaching out!
We are sorry to hear that you're unhappy with your order.
I took a look at your account and investigated the tracking number and it looks like the item arrived within the estimated delivery date which you agreed upon purchase. The ETA is Aug 05 - Aug 16 and according to your your tracking number your order has been delivered on the Aug 9th.
I've attached the proof of delivery from FedEx for your reference.
Based on the tracking number, we are not seeing that the package has been refused. Did you happen to send it using a different tracking number? If so, please send us a reference for that.
Unfortunately, we cannot refund an order without any proof that it has been returned/refused. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Please also check that ticket you created as we also responded from there. Than you!
In the meantime, have a great day!
