Chewy has big letters indicating 35%off 1st auto ship order but that is a very misleading statement. I placed an order for $89.00 and they gave me only $20.00 off. The wording is a misrepresentation and they should be made to uphold the 35% off and stop tricking and misleading customers.Business Response

*****,
I'm so sorry about your recent order experience. At Chewy, we strive to provide a positive experience with every customer interaction, and we dropped the ball here.
I tried to reach you by phone on 9/28 and 9/29 but was unable to reach you.
Chewys Autoship is an easy way to set up repeat deliveries from Chewy and save on the items you buy regularly. The referenced promotion is for 35% off your first Autoship order (for Autoship eligible items), up to a maximum discount of $20. The total cost charged to your payment method for each Autoship order will be the price of the item, less the Autoship & Save discount or any other discount, if applicable, plus any applicable shipping charges and sales tax. Additional details and information on our Autoship process can be found on the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) page of Chewy.com under the section labeled Autoship (https://www.chewy.com/app/content/faq) as well as in the Autoship & Save Terms and Conditions (https://www.chewy.com/app/content/ans-terms).
I did some digging and was able to locate your order ending *****. Your order total before the discount was $89.98. Chewy then applied the maximum discount of $20.00 to your order, in accordance with Autoship promotion terms and conditions. As a courtesy, and due to the confusion, I processed a full refund for your order ending in in the amount of $76.05 on September 30th, 2022. Generally speaking, you should see the refunded amount credited to the account associated with the payment method on file within 3 to 5 business days, however that timing may vary based on your banking institution.
We really appreciate your feedback and thank you for giving us the opportunity to help with this. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at **************. We're here 24/7 to lend a helping paw.

Chewy refuses to refund money for my dogs medicine I sent back due to extra bottles sent or give me credit on next autoship. I have been a loyal customer for several yrs. My dog has heart problems and I was getting her meds from two sites. I decided to try Chewy instead. I had problems getting her to take her non flavored meds. I saw Chewy offered compounded chicken flavor. In trying to place my order I messed up a couple times and got on a chat with C.S. she helped me place the order together. My order came on Aug.30,2022 #********** and was left on my porch,it was two boxes,I opened one it was her Pimobendan #**********. I opened the other it was both of her meds together I had two Pimobendan and one Furosemide. I didn't figure they would take it back being opened. I was charged for this one also total 164.96.I was only suppose to get the two bottles. I got a notification a few days later my order had shipped would arrive Sept 6, I was home when it came and I rejected it said return it #********** cost *****. Message Chewy several times about refunding my money only to be told they won't. I called and talked to a girl explained to her she talked to several supervisors all saying no refund. So I ask her to ask if they would at least use it towards my next autoship again the answer was no. How the heck can a company just keep a person's money legally and refuse to give it back. I was told by a friend a local pharmacy also carries pet meds and they do compounding so I'm looking to take her meds to them and the rest of my business maybe to Barkbox or some other. I trusted Chewy thinking they were honest,boy was I fooled,thrives they are.Business Response

This was my first time placing an order through chewy. An I am not impressed at all with the service. They basically took my money an canceled the entire order. Ok so first time user I placed order online I had a coupon, an used that along with the discount for auto ship. So my total for my dog SIMPATICO (heart flea tick) was 118. I was like ok cool places order online. Get email saying order couldn't be placed. So I called she said she needed to confirm some stuff ok cool. She confirmed order was placed. Everything was good. Check my account Friday morning (next day) and there are now 3 separate charges on my account. One for my order of 118.an two orders of 159. Which I have no idea where they came from I never placed these other two orders. So I call an they tell me that they were ordered then canceled so the charges will go back onto my account in 2-3 business days an on top of that they canceled my original order of 118. So basically they took 159 + 159 + 118. Then canceled all my orders an told me I now hav to wait 2-3 business days for my refund. But its Friday. So I hav to wait through the weekend then till about Tuesday to receive my money an I still dont get any product. They straight up stole money form me they had no a clam to. Like they really went into my account an charges my twice for a product at a higher cost with out my permission. Why would I order my dog meds once an at discount then the other two times at a regular price for the same amount of time. I have one dog. He cant take 3 simpatico an month. Would I recommend this place absolutely NOT. **** stole over $500 from my account unauthorized, canceled my order so I dont receive product then told me I need to wait 5-6 days to get my money back that. AN STILL NO PRODUCT. yea I def need a manger or call me back on this.Business Response

Hi ******,I'm so sorry about your recent experience. At Chewy, we strive to provide a positive experience with every customer interaction.
At **********************, we only charge your account when your order is shipped, however, when you first place an order, our payment system requests a payment authorization from your bank or credit card issuer, which basically places a pending authorization for an estimated total amount of your order. This pending authorization is not an actual final charge, but it does immediately affect the available balance on your bank account, in accordance with your banks practices or your credit card companys practices. Once your order is packed and shipped, we process a final charge for the order, and we inform your bank or credit card issuer that the order is complete, and they can release any pending authorizations for the order. While the pending authorization and the final charge may co-exist on your account for a brief time, the pending authorization will eventually be released and will disappear from your account, and the final charge will remain, replacing the pending authorization. The length of time the pending authorization remains on your account, or the time it takes for the authorization to be released, depends on your bank or credit card issuer. Some banks may take up to 30 days to remove payment authorizations from your account
.Additional details and information on our payment process can be found on the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) page of Chewy.com under the section labeled Payments(https://www.chewy.com/app/content/faq).
I did some digging and located the orders you referenced,orders ending in *****, *****, and *****. Since those orders were cancelled prior to shipment, your account should not have been charged and any pending authorization should have fallen off of your bank statement within 1-2 business days. However, as mentioned above, that timing may vary based on your banking institution.
Because your privacy is important to us, we have a dedicated team working around the clock and we use industry-leading security technology to secure, monitor, and protect your Chewy account. As part of that effort, in this instance when you placed your first Chewy order, our monitoring system needed to verify certain information to ensure the order was authorized.
I understand that you spoke with a supervisor on September 23, 2022, to clear up any confusion, and that the supervisor re-processed the order at no cost for you. The replacement order ending ***** was shipped on September 26, 2022. I can confirm the order, per ***** tracking, was delivered on September 28, 2022, to the shipping address on file.
We really appreciate your understanding and want to thank you for giving us the opportunity to help with this. Please feel free to reach out to us anytime if you have further questions or concerns. We are here 24/7 to lend a helping paw.

I am rejecting this response because: ******* literally lied to me when he called me last week to apologize to me for the actions if one of theyre supervising employees I spoke to prior to him responding to this initial complaint I initiated. He stated he apologized for the actions of the supervisor I spoke to about the defective very poor quality stroller that was given to me yes I did receive refund and dint have to return it but it is useless to me and I am still in need of a stroller for my dog he stated that chewy himself personally would call me two days ago on Last Sunday but called me last Sunday to say to say on my voicemail which I still have from him stating he was not able to do as he had promised to do last Sunday which was to have me go on Chewys site pick out a better quality obviously more expensive stroller and that chewy would match my cost of that stroller for all inconvenience in this matter well Sunday came and went so did last Wednesday and I still have no stroller at this time I am requesting chewy pay full price no cost to me at all gif the better stroller for the lies that have been given to me as a long time loyal customer of theyres I am perm disabled my dog is my support animal and before my dog I had a cat of fifteen years I spent so much money on in Chewys pharmacy and in toys litter etc over the years this is not acceptable and quite frankly this is one of worst interactions I have ever experienced in my life with any company. ******* and the lies he said on the phone call and false promises is truly disgusting to me I told him I was grateful for his understanding the entire situation with other previous customer service employees and lack of understanding and compassion he said he apologized then I come to find out he lied I would imagine he had thought I would immediately contact bbb after his false promises to say this was resolved Im glad I did not do so. Thanks bbb for your help with this I appreciate it god bless shame on you ******* and shame on you Chewy.

My dog uses chewy pharmacy for critical to life medication. I had called 3 days ago and asked when the needed medical supplies would be ship. The pharmacy rep said the pharmacist just had review the prescription which would be that evening or the next morning and they would be shipped the next day by the afternoon. Days later it still shows no prescription on cheesy website in my account nor has the medical supplies been shipped. This is extremely disappointing by a company that cares for animals. I have been doing business with chewy for a long time and spend a couple hundred dollars a month with them. The fact a rep lied to get me off the phone when they could have been honest that they werent going to ship them soon now causes a hardship bc I couldve found a different pharmacy. This is extremely poor business and customer service. You have put an animal in danger due to your lack of integrity and commitment to your customers.Business Response

On 8/15/22 I placed a 6 month order for heartgard and nexgard with Chewy.com. This was placed on an auto ship for the next 6 months. Chewy shipped another 6 month supply on 9/9/2022. I requested a return and was told I could return. Then less than 24 hrs later I was told that the excess amount that was shipped 5 months too soon could not be returned. I have tried discussing this issue but the response is the same. I now have a 12 month supply when I only ordered a 6 month supply. Who autoships 5 months early? I would like to return the excess for a refund.Business Response

Hi ********,
Im sorry about your recent order experience. At Chewy, we strive to provide a positive experience with every customer interaction.
We did some digging and located your order ending in *****. We see that on August 14, 2022, an Autoship order was created for a fulfilment frequency of every 4 weeks. This order was delivered to your address of account on August 18, 2022. The next scheduled Autoship date was set for September 9, 2022, which was delivered to the address on record on September 12, 2022.
Because you are a valued customer, as you discussed with one of our representatives, we are refunding your account in the amount of $186.94 and have requested that you return your September 9th Autoship order using the return label shipped to you. Generally speaking, you should see the refunded amount credited to your account payment method on file within 3-5 business days, however that timing may vary based on your banking institution.
In addition to your refund, we'd be happy to offer you a 10% discount towards your next purchase from us. Please give us a call at ************** before placing your next order, and a supervisor will be happy to assist you with redeeming this offer.
We really appreciate your feedback and thank you for giving us the opportunity to help with this. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here 24/7 to lend a helping paw.
Regards,

On **** I ordered 12 cans of ****** ************ Diet i/d ************** Low Fat Original Flavor **** Wet Dog Food and one bag of Hill's ************ Diet i/d ************** Small Bites Chicken Flavor Dry Dog Food, 7-lb bag. I only received the Small Bites bag dry food without packaging, only the bag with the ***** label on it. The canned food was not sent. I spoke with ******* **** *************************** ***, Mgr. they won't acknowledge the fact that their shipping **** only mailed out the bag by itself with the ***** label on it and the canned food is missing. I've been a customer of ********************** for years, we have 2 little dogs, and always shop at Chewy, spending hundreds of dollars every month. I'm amazed, confused & flustered Chewy is taking this position of not fulfilling an order that was placed. I want a refund for the whole order $105.59. I'll mail back the damaged bag of dry food. My order # **********. The ***** label on the dry food bag is #************.Business Response

Hey there *********,
I'm so sorry about your recent order experience. At Chewy, we strive to provide a positive experience with every customer interaction, and we dropped the ball here.
I did some digging and was able to locate your order ending in *****. We contacted ***** and were able to confirm with them that there was an issue with your package during shipment. . As a courtesy, and due to the delivery issues, we processed a replacement order (order ending in ****), which included the missing item. I can confirm that, according to ***** tracking, your replacement order ending in -****, was delivered on September 21, 2022.
As an additional courtesy, we have processed a refund for the original order ending ***** in the amount of $105.59. Generally speaking, you should have seen the refunded amount credited to the account associated with the payment method on file within 3 to 5 business days, however that timing may vary based on your banking institution.
We really appreciate your feedback and thank you for giving us the opportunity to help with this. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here 24/7 to lend a helping paw.

I did not receive an expensive medication. I am a new time mom (with hands full adjusting). I did not realize my RX was not delivered with everything going on until I was out. (I missed a dose so it was one month and two weeks noticing it did not arrive). I contacted Chewy and they said they would replace it (gave me an order number and everything) but then received an email stating it was cancelled. I have been a loyal customer for years and am HIGHLY dissatisfied that they took my money and offered no help the one time I truly needed help.I would like the medication delivered, a refund, or a gift card with the amount I spent to order new medicine. They claim 100 percent satisfaction guaranteed but yet fail to live up to this.
