    Dear Better Business Bureau, I am submitting a formal complaint against BHFO due to their failure to address a defective product issue in a timely manner. I ordered a dress from BHFO for $118.51 on June 8th 2025, the dress was advertised as a size 10. Upon receiving the item, I discovered that, despite being labeled as a size 10, the dress was not accurately sized and was defective, as the zipper was stuck and the fit was inconsistent with standard sizing. I immediately contacted BHFO regarding this issue, and they requested evidence, which I promptly provided. I sent images of myself wearing the dress, clearly showing that it would not zip due to improper sizing and a faulty zipper. Additionally, I provided comparative images of other dresses I own in size 10 to demonstrate the discrepancy. Despite their initial request for evidence, BHFO has since gone completely silent and has failed to provide any resolution. I made it clear in my communication with them that this dress was purchased specifically for an important event happening this weekend, and I urgently need either a replacement with accurate sizing or a full refund. However, BHFOs sudden lack of response has left me without options and caused unnecessary inconvenience. I kindly request BBBs intervention in holding BHFO accountable and ensuring that this matter is resolved promptly. I expect either an immediate refund or a replacement that matches the correct sizing. Please advise on the next steps to escalate this matter effectively. Thank you for your time and assistance.

    Hello,

    Thank you for emailing us. We are sorry to hear that the item was not as expected. I apologize for the delay in the reply. All emails are responded in the order they are received. We are not here on Sundays and it can take 1-2 business days for a reply.  

    We are not the brand owner or manufacturer of the goods. For this reason, we are unable to confirm if an item will run true to size or will fit a particular individual. We do realize that styles and brands vary, and it is sometimes challenging to purchase clothing online, so we encourage you to visit the brands website for additional measurements

    We have issued you a prepaid label to send this item back to be reviewed since this is a Final Sale item. The photo of the defective zipper is blurry and hard to tell with is wrong. Once our returns department can confirm the zipper is defective you will receive a refund. If there was no error made on our end you will receive refund of the item cost and will be charged for this return.  

    We have noted your order with the information and asked the returns department to review this. You should be receive the prepaid label in an email shortly.

    Please let us know if you have any further questions. Thank you.

    I ordered six pair of shoes. Two pairs were damaged and I sent pictures and an email to bhfo customer service. ******************** promptly responded to me and sent me a link to initiate a return. Once I began to complete the return form, I realized that the credit card refund is less than the store credit option. I followed up with BHFO and called them but they did not respond. Items are damaged. Its not my fault that I want to return items. I am not certain whether I want to keep shopping at *** and want a full refund.

I apologize if this was missed. You will not be changed the $10.99 return fee for the damaged items in this order and will receive a full refund. Please let us know if we can assist any further.

    I am rejecting this response because: you are misstating the facts. Once I clicked on the link that you sent me to initiate the return, I was given two options: accept a full return via a gift card or be charged a handling fee if I wanted a credit on my credit card.

    A handling fee is different from a shipping fee. This business engages in shoddy business practices- selling used and damaged goods, and then wants to charge a handling fee for a return of damaged goods.

    Thank you for following up. I apologize for any confusion. Once you have followed the steps shown in the attachments with this message it will inform you that "Once we receive the return item(s) back to our warehouse and validate the return reason, we will refund the pre-paid return label cost for 'Item is damaged' and Received wrong item' return reasons." This means that you would receive a full refund on these items. The $10.99 return shipping fee would not be subtracted from your refund. Please feel free to reach out to us directly with any additional questions.

    I am rejecting this response because: once I initiated the return, I was given two options: 1)gift card return for a full amount and 2)credit card return less handling fee. The way the options were presented, it appeared that I wouldnt be able to get a full refund if I chose a credit card refund. 

    In the past, I wasnt given this option. The business is not willing to give me a credit card refund.

    I am disappointed.

    Bought shoes from them online. Shoes arrived and appeared substantially used, so much so that, due to prior wear, the printed name on the inside of both shoes were missing letters. I sent am email with photos to the seller requesting either a deep discount or return authorization for a full refund. Seller denied my request.

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out in regard to your concern. I am sorry to hear that your order was lost by the carrier while in transit. I see that you were working with one of our team members on a claim with the carrier and have since been refunded in full for this order. I do apologize on how long it took to hear back as the claims process can take up to 10 days for us to hear back from the carrier. Please reach back out with any additional questions or concerns. Thank you.

    My order# is **************. I placed an order for 7 dresses with BHFO on **** on 9/2/24 for $273.39. All the dresses were advertised to be brand new, with tags. However, what I received was significantly not as described. All of the dresses were heavily used, soiled, ripped and had noticeable odor. Seams and beadworks were coming apart. Clearly, this was not advertised within their **** listing description or images. I contacted the seller immediately upon receiving the package on 9/6 for a resolution. The seller did not respond until days later with an unhelpful automated response. I waited for a resolution and the seller stalled by being non-communicative. They finally responded with a partial refund of $20.06 if I kept 4 of the dresses and returned the rest. The seller finally sent me a return shipping label for the remaining 3 dresses after weeks of going back and forth. I sent back the dresses for a refund of $136.82. *** tracking# 1ZE660299093531108 shows confirmation of delivery. It's been weeks now and the seller have refused to process the refund. BHFO have been uncooperative and is still operating under bad business ethics. All of the items I returned have been relisted on BHFO's **** store as of this date. I am requesting for a full refund for the items I returned. Additional information is available upon request.

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out in regard to your concern. Our team has reached out to the customer in regard to this order and we were able to get the customer refunded outside of **** as **** only allows sellers to refund the customer up to 90 days after an order is placed. I do apologize for any confusion around the return time frame. I see that the customer reached out to us September 6th, 2024 after business hours and we responded to their messages the next business day, September 9th, 2024. We informed the customer that we were going to have all the information she provided to us reviewed. On September 11th we provided a return label to have all the items in question returned for a full refund.

    The customer then requested to keep a couple dresses for a discount. It took time for the customer and ******************** to come to compromise on the customer keeping a couple items for a discount and returning the remaining dresses. On all of our **** lists we provide our customers information about what it is we sell and what they can expect of the items they purchase. We are a outlet and some of our items have been for sale in a retail environment and can show signs of being tried on and handled.

    BHFO's return window doesn't change because we issued the return label instead of **** issuing the return label. The 30 day return window is set by us, BHFO and provided on all of our listings. Please feel free to call us at ************** Monday-Friday 7:30am-4pm Central Time with any questions.

     

    Sincerely,

    BHFO

    On 1/2/25, I ordered a 2 piece skirt and jacket suit set from BHFO. On 1/12/25, I received a 2 piece pant suit from BHFO in a completely different style. Naively thinking that BHFO had made an honest mistake, I reordered the correct item plus 4 additional items on their website, because I didn't want the original item to sell out and they had a sale. I then proceeded to immediately contact BHFO with photos of the incorrect item, as well as the BHFO tags attached, and the packing slip, but they never responded to me and as of today, nearly a month later, I haven't received a single response from them. I have emailed BHFO on 1/12, 1/13, 1/15, 1/18, 1/20 and 1/22 and have informed them of their mistake, asking for a refund. I also still have not received the second order I placed on 1/12/25, although the tracking number shows that it arrived in ******* a week ago. Please note that we have not experienced any weather events or snow storms during this time. Now I fear that once I receive the second order (if I do), I will learn that I was scammed on the second order as well. When I placed the order, I didn't know they were an unresponsive company or else I would have never ordered again. Reading their complaints on BBB which follow a pattern of sending the wrong items and then not responding to their customers, I fear that I have lost over $200. As of today, 1/23/25, and after having contacted BHFO 6 times using both their email address and their online contact form, I have not received a single response. I'm hereby requesting a full refund including the shipping cost for both orders.

    I am filing this complaint regarding a recent order I placed with BHFO. I paid $130 for next-day shipping on an item, and the company failed to fulfill the service as advertised.The order was placed on 1/19 and marked as shipped on 1/20, but I was later informed that because 1/20 was a holiday, the package was not picked up by the carrier until 1/21. As a result, the item will not arrive until many days later, which clearly does not meet the next-day shipping promise.I understand that holidays may affect carrier operations; however, **** did not disclose this information at the time of purchase. I would not have paid such an exorbitant fee had I known the delivery would be delayed. The companys customer service has refused to offer a refund or partial reimbursement, which I believe is unfair given that they failed to deliver the service I paid for.I am seeking a partial refund of the $130 shipping cost as compensation for this delay and the misleading nature of their service.

    Business Response

    Date: 01/23/2025

    Hello, Thank you for reaching out in regard to this concern. We are so very sorry for any confusion around our shipping policy. On our Shipping & Delivery page of our website it does outline that orders placed after 1:00 PM CST won't ship that same day. And because the following day was a holiday it didn't ship the next day as well. It is currently standard practice once an order is fulfilled and placed on the carriers semi our team marks them shipped on our end. If this wasn't a holiday the carrier would have picked up this load and it would have been in transit. The carrier did pick up this order along with others the following business day January 21st, 2025.The carrier noted on their tracking information that this package experienced a sortation delay. Because of this the package won't be delivered until today, January 23rd, 2025. We have provided a partial refund as requested in the amount of $70.29. Again our sincere apologies for this error.

     

    Sincerely,

    Good day,I have reached out to BHFO because they sent me the wrong item. I ordered a brown shoe but they sent me a black shoe.I would like to return the order and receive a full refund.They have proven to be unresponsive as seen in the attachment.

    Thank you for reaching out. I am so sorry for the delayed responses. We typically are able to respond to all messages in 1-2 business days, however during the holidays it can take 2-3 business days with the increase in messages we are getting. I do see the same day you were refunded for the order that was lost by the carrier ****** had sent an email that they were unable to locate the order and she was refunding it in full. I am sorry if this was missed or you didn't receive it.

    My apologizes for the issues you have been having with your orders lately. The shoes you received incorrectly we provided the pre-paid label and have received them back and refunded your order in full. Including the shipping and insurance purchased on the order. I have attached the refund information and our previous emails.
