      On 11-27-2023 I ordered from Ultra Hearing a pair of hearing aids.Received them on 12-13-2023. I paid $161.95 for them and reading info it seemed like a warranty would be with them, till you go to check out and they wanted me to pay extra for warranty. I choose not to at that time. In the middle of Feb I started having problems with my hearing aids and could not get them to charge, so I sent an email and when I did not hear anything went and sent another email from a different email I had for them. One I used ******************** and the other was ********************************************************** then I finally get a response from ****** at ********************************************** which has nothing to do with ultra hearing aids. Looking now at the emails, that I have attached in notepad form, that some of the emails were from different people. These are two possible phone numbers but one is a ********* number not a ******* number ************ and ************. If you click on the link shopultrahearing.com it comes up with something went wrong, what happened, link you followed is no longer available. On Feb 4th I had gotten an email that said about winning some money and when I click on it, does not work. I would prefer to get my money back since my hearing aids have stopped working. I know I did not take out the ************* has been more than 45 days for refund, but I don't think hearing aids should stop working, they won't even charge. So charger and aids are no good anymore & I need to be able to hear. I want my money back so I can go get some real hearing aids from a reputable company. If you look at the attached email notes, on the 14th email came in saying website is under maintenance and shows a different address than what is on other emails. So to the question did business try to resolve my issue, NO they did not as they stated can't help me cause I did not buy the warranty & out of the 45 day return period. I don't care since they are scamming people, so want my money back

      Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because: I do not think I will get an answer and/or it will be from someone else and not the company. I also would rather talk to someone. their website is back up and running and it shows lifetime warranty, but yet that is not true. You can only get that warranty if you pay for it at checkout. That is false information then. I would like to know why they show that and would like to know if they are willing to either give me my money back or replace the hearing aids with lifetime warranty providing they don't just disappear like they did when I reached out to you. I would also like to know why the hearing aids stopped working in such a short time, I only had them for a little under 3 months, I don't think they should have stopped working so soon.

      I do not want to deal with their email as like I said I no longer trust it. I have a hearing lost and have had since little, those hearing aids allowed me to hear and to hear things I could not hear before and I can not afford true hearing aids from a regular hearing company.

      Thank you

      Sincerely,

      I ordered a pair of hearing aids on Feb. 6th,2024 from Ultra Hearing Pros(online) and received them on Feb. 13th. They did not work from the first day I got them.

They left another number to call, but I have tried numerous times but no one ever answers. The address they gave was ****************************************************************************************.

      My dad paid for and ordered a mobility scooter from upright cane 9/9/24 and funds cleared his bank 9/11/23 but he never received it. We called and left emails and they replied finally in December apologizing for the delay and asked to verify address. We tried to file a claim and they wanted $10 additional to open an incident report! In November They sent a cane with a headlight which we did joy order We had to purchase a scooter from a storefront and tried to get the bank to help but it was paid with a debt card!! My dad filed a report with Bbb but was not good about following up so I guess you closed the ticket.

      On October 3, 2023 I ordered the mobility scooter for $609.90. I waited for about six weeks because tracking showed that the scooter was being shipped from *****. After that time I kept getting a message from the site saying they had no record of my order number. The order number is *****. The money was sent through Klarna. I have called the number listed and also sent emails but have never gotten a response.

      My husband ordered a mobile scooter from Upright Cane company and with it came a free cane. However he did receive the cane but not the scooter. They deducted the ****** from his account without delivering the the scooter. I contacted the **** and they did an investigation and found the tracking number Upright Cane provided to the bank was for Parcel Select lightweight for 1lb 2.24 oz. not the weight of the scooter. The bank credited the money back in January and took it back in February. I have tried numerous times to reach out to the company but no response for resolution. I am writing for assistance as this is ongoing and the company is not responding to our request to provide an update and refund his money back into his account. The public also needs to be made aware that this company is practicing unlawfully and taking *************** of seniors and people with disabilities. I have additional information from the bank.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      It is almost a year of waiting for my cane.  Each time I contact them, they say the same thing -- waiting for new stock.  However, they continue to advertise the product and do business.  Their response is a hollow promise that they don't seem to have any intention of delivering.  Twelve months is a long time not to have stock.  How many others have they done this to?  If they have no intention of delivering two canes, they should not have a B1G1 ad.
