On May 23rd 2024 I ordered a pack of CBD gummies on their website. I paid $38.07. I then decided I did not want the gummies anymore and I returned the package unopened and unused. There has been a delay on the delivery of the return for more than 3 weeks now. First they told me I wasn't getting a refund until the package actually got there and then 2 weeks after this delay started I called back and was told that my refund was going to go ahead and be processed. I was told my refund would take up to 10 days. It has now been more than 10 days and I cannot get a hold of customer service at all.Business Response

I place an order with this vendor on 12/27/22. They claim 5-7 days standard mailing ******* for which I was charged $8.99. My order total was $59.98. I still have not received my order and I have written several emails to their "info" email address. I cannot get anyone by phone or email to find out what the status of my order is at this time. I have been on hold with their customer service, listening to commercials about their products, waiting for someone to pick up, for 20 minutes. I am a first-time customer and will NOT be using this vendor again. I have that my order was placed on 12/27. I no longer want anything from them; I want a refund. At this point, I would not trust the quality or integrity of the product.Initial Complaint

I am rejecting this response because: Hello, I have been waiting for a response from you for the past two months. I need a detailed and reasonable explanation why your phone number is never answered, including the question thread on your website, as mentioned by 99% of the other consumers on your reviews. Have this answer sent to me or have the phone line fixed immediately, or I will work with BBB and FTC and some of my other connections to take your business down. ************* is no place for you people to come and start scamming hard-earning honest *********.In regards to the order, this supplement was recommended to my old father two months ago for consumption. When you were irresponsive and unable to deliver product, I made my purchase with a different business, with great customer service. If you pay attention to my request and the customer service forms which I filed, I never ASKED FOR A REPLACEMENT. I emailed you many times asking for a refund and a return address to send your damaged product back to you. In addition to that, I have moved to a different address since two weeks ago, and am no longer residing at the resident which I assume you are shipping to.
Next time please confirm with the consumer, please making decisions on your own, after having the audacity of replying after two months time. Please do not ship me anything, as the package will go to the wrong resident or possibly get lost. I would like this order to be canceled immediately and letter from your management team stating that you will no longer contact me or email promotional letters. I would like to have no business with *********'s Web, starting today September 28th.
Have this order refunded immediately or I will contact my credit card with this information. I am filing a case on FTC against you in the meantime, and have my lawyer on standby, in case I want to take this case to the next stage. CBD product has been working magically for my father, and the lack of service and response and negligence by your company has caused him physical and psychological damage. I await your prompt response.

I am rejecting this response because: The order was placed on August 16. I have sent the business dozens of emails and made phone calls without a response. They posted a customer service number on their website which is non working. You can see other customers reviews on ****** and BBB are all complaining about the same issue. You call the number and are put on hold for hours without anybody on the other side of the call.
i finally contacted my bank in September and my bank filed a chargeback against the business and took my money out of their account. I just confirmed with my bank, that the credit was provided by bank and not refunded by the business. Since the businesss bank failed to response to the chargeback claim with a rebuttal, the temporary credit became permanent. I cannot accept the businesss dishonest response after many deadlines have passed, and the refund was provided to my by mastercard fraud protection program, which Charlottes web likes to take credit for.
these chargebacks affect my credit and reputation negatively and because of Charlottes webs negligence I was forced to do that as a last resort. I have been dealing with issues in my personal life recently and was advised to purchase CBD to deal with my nerve issues and inflammation. And this was the nightmare I had to deal with. I then spent hours trying to contact Charlottes web and this only added to my mental suffering and inflammation. I like to know what the business is willing to do to make up for this utter negligence.
