  Just a terrible return process. The return process and getting your money back takes over 30 days which is cruel and unusual at best. Terrible company to do business with.

  On 12/9/2021 We placed a very large order from an Olight Distributor which included 27 Valkyrie Lights, 18 ******* Lights and 7 Warrior 3 Lights. That Olight Distributor provided supplemental documentation that Olight is a "No Hassle Warranty Replacement" manufacturer which we specified in the bid that is a requirement to proceed with the sale. The company we bought from is no longer in business so we have to go directly through Olight.Last week I was working on 6 claims including 3 Arkfelds, 2 Warriors, and a Valkyrie so I contacted Olight, and the customer service rep *** advised it wouldn't be an issue to get it replaced. Fast forward to me dealing with ***, I provided her with 6 Serial numbers and a count on what was needing to be replaced. She then accused ** of trying to scam them and failed to respond to any further messaging. I need them to either replace those 6 lights and agree going forward that they will honor the warranty process as the distributor had advised in 2021 or they can buy back the lights that we had purchased.

  Business Response

  Date: 05/02/2023

  I apologize for this inconvenience. If you would like to return the light to ** for warranty work, please fill out the attached Warranty Repair form, making certain to include the Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number we have assigned you (As indicated below). Please address the shipping information as follows:
  
  Olight ***
  RMA-*****************
  7951 ***********. STE B,
  ******, **, 22079
  
  Kindly let you know that we emailed the return lable to you, please feel free to return the defective for ************ we receive your light, we will determine if it can be repaired or if it should be replaced altogether. Your understanding and assistance will be much appreciated.

  Business Response

  Date: 05/04/2023

  As per our warranty policy, if the product was purchased within 30 days, customers are eligible for a return. However, if it has been more than 30 days since purchase, customers will need to send the products back to ** for repair or get brand new replacements.
  As the system shows that customer has initiated a warranty repair request on our official website already, and we have provided with a prepaid return label. Please note that we have not yet received any updates on the package being picked up by the shipping carrier, so the replacements are unable to ship for now.
  
  As the Olight warranty policy stated,once we receive the returned product, we will promptly send out a new one and provide you with the latest tracking information via email.For more details, please kindly check this link ****************************************************.
  

  For any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Olight customer ********************** team.

  First.Olightstore website (https://www.olightstore.com/) shows address is : ************************************************************* This is different then what BBB has.Olight refund process is not giving my refund.Jul 16, 2022, 02:00:36 Order:US1657951236293090N This order was returned and received by olight.I have been dealing with olight csr name *** *** is not in *** and english is not his primary language. I go back and forth with *** trying to make the conversation clear and understood. I am exhausted with the months of communication.*** claims there is a dispute on the charge, which is true because of errors in refund process (mixed up shipping label numbers, confusion on items, confusion on addresses).Now that Olight finally has the items back my refund of $173.17 is now held up because Olight failed to respond to the dispute. Finally, *** insisted that if I closed the dispute the refund would proceed. So I closed the dispute with my CC.*** now claims the dispute is still not closed and no way to refund.I have had enough!I would like to add, I have requested with several Olight Employees to get the corporate office / Olight headquarters location contact information and I am being 100% ignored.You have no IDEA how many emails, and live chat sessions it has taken to get this far. I would have NEVER returned and (ATTEMPTED) to refund my purchase if it was not for the unprofessionalism of the CSR's of Olight.This is BEYOND insanity.One email that started Aug 26, there are 42 conversations going back and forth with *******Aug 24th, CSR ***************** mixing up shipping labels. I want my refund.All my CSR's I have been speaking to are Olight ***** but the order was from olightstore website. What is going on?

  Although it took 2 months and a BBB complaint to get the refund.

  NOTE: VARIOUS emails back and forth (at least ************************ one email!!) 

  Now tha I have had such a bad experience it has tainted my decision if I NEED your product... and if I am willing to deal with what is behind the product.

  Hello *****,

  This is ***** from Olight customer service team. We feel sincerely sorry that you have had the bad experience with our customer service specialist. 

  After checking our email history and the application you submitted, I found that you the order number you provided US20031300541 is M2R PRO ODG bundle with I1R 2 DT kit. And you paid $ 82.74 for this whole bundle. As we only recall the M2R PRO in this order, we counted the priced of the single light M2R PRO ODG in this order is $71.97(The full price of the M2R PRO ODG is $119.95, and you get 40% off in this bundle deal); And we provided 110% credit as the priced you purchase, so you will get $79.17 credit finally.

  As the light caused a loss to you, we would like to give you a corresponding compensation. And I will send you an email later to follow up your case. Please don't worry, we will get it resolved as soon as possible. 

  Yours sincerely,

  Olight Team
