    August 3-2023 I went to Sooth Relieve.com to order ONE pair of compression socks. I placed the order for one pair for $17.95 and $4.95 shipping. When I completed the order with my **************** card I noticed the total was over $100 and I could not even review my order to see the issue. I immediately tried to call them and it was a recording saying they would call back in ***** hours. The next day I got an email saying the socks were shipped and that they could not cancel orders on items already shipped. They sent 8 pairs of compression socks!!! The total ****** !!!!! I only ordered one pair to try but they charged me for 8 pairs !! I did not want 8. They charged **************** two separate charges- one for $60.91 and the other for $39.95 to Wellnee *** . I just want my money back and they can have the unopened package of socks.

    I've contacted the company requesting return forms, return shipping address on 6 seperate emails to every department in the company. I've been offered 30% refund, next was 40% refund. I'm unable to use the product purchased due to the socks not having enough compression for my needs. This has been explained in each email and having read their return policy acknowledged that I know I have to pay return shipping. They have a 14 day return policy and I feel they are trying to drag this out beyond those 14 days so that they can keep my money and i have a useless to me product. It has now been 6 says since all this has started. I have saved all my emails correspondence with them. I'm without knowledge on how to upload them to you.
