    On October 3, 2023 I ordered goods from blue force gear in the amount of $276.15 and the order was accepted order number ****** and that it would take little bit longer please allow a few days longer for shipping. We gave them time but nothing happened. After about a month of hearing nothing I started calling them, leaving them messages, sent a couple of emails no response. This is not the way to do business and I want to be refunded and given something for all the hardship they have caused. If I don’t hear anything from them soon I will seek legal means.

    Thank you for your help **** from Blue Force Gear contacted me. I spoke with **** on Friday December 01, 2023 at approximately 2:35 pm.  He said their information showed that our order shipped the day after it was placed.  Therefore that is on Blue Force Gear.  He assured me that the order is shipping out this afternoon with some extras also.  He also said they are revamping and restructuring their customer service team.  The order will be sent USPS.  The tracking number will be emailed to me today.  **** gave an extra apology and reconfirmed he is sending extras for my inconvenience.

    I paid them through my ******** card for a vest. They took the money. On May 22 2023. I called them twice, no one picked up. I wrote them four times at the address provided on their site and twice filled out forms asking for a response. It’s May 29 2023. I have never been replied to in any way shape or form. I have not received a notification of any kind on an in stock item. I want a refund as soon as possible. I am fortunate I used a ******** credit card. I think. In any event nothing has shipped. I have not been replied to numerous times. I want a refund immediately please

    We are very sorry Mr ***** ***** had this experience at **** ***** *****  We recently changed over some critical business systems and that has caused delays in both our shipping and customer service processes.  

    As soon as the Customer Service team made me aware of the issue, I personally refunded Mr ***** and to be sure it went through, I refunded him again.  Attached is the credit memo (refund) from our ecommerce system and second is a screen shot from our payment processor showing two refunds which means his card will have received not a charge but a cred in order amount from us to his ******** card.  

    I apologize we could not get the gear to Mr ***** as he needed but hoping the extra $317 can help him get him what needs from another supplier.  

    Please let me know if there is anything else we need to do on this - 

    **** ******

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
