      The business published a supplement was available for purchase then canceled my order and told me to place another order then canceled that order for the supplement not being available. I suffered health repercussions from not being able to obtain the supplement for 3 weeks. The business is now refusing to cancel and delete my account after multiple requests.

      We truly apologize for the inconvenience. We did have a glitch in our system which caused this error to occur two times. Our customer service team did recently reach out and offered a $60 coupon code to be used on a future ************************** purchase, which was the value of the original order.  

      We do want to ensure that you are satisfied with this resolution so if you have any further issues or questions please contact us directly at: ************ or ******************************************* and we will be happy to help. 

      Thank you for purchasing NOW products.

      Complaint: 22648426

      I am rejecting this response because the company has failed to perform the following actions as requested: cancel my online account, delete my online account, provide notification of the completion of my request and provide notification of no further contact after my requests have been granted. 

      Sincerely,

      I bought the jojoba oil at H-E-B in ** and within a couple of months it grew what looked like mold and fuzzy debris in the oil. This cant be healthy for anyone.

      The consumer should have been able to bring this product back to HEB for a refund. 
      If she didn't, NOW Foods customer service would gladly send out a call tag and pick up the product so we can evaluate the product and hopefully determine what may have happened.
      Please have the consumer contact customer service at *********************************************** so we can pick up the product and replace or give credit for a new item at the same value.

I was transferred to NowFoods to fix my issue. It says its the same company. Have your billing team look into this and issue the refund immediately. Or further action wil be taken thanks

      A member of the customer service team from NOW emailed the person directly to resolve this refund issue from a purchase they made at LuckyVitamin.com.

      I am rejecting this response because: please resolve the issue immeditaely. Issue the refund and send me the refund receipt. This business is closing and tried to reject my refund for no good reason, and attempted to scam me. Their policy clearly states opened or closed products can be returned. Now they claim the products were empty. It does not matter. I bought a vitamin, i used it for one month and it did not help me at all. I need an explanation why they tried ti change their own policy and scam me out of my money. Otherwise i will be taking legal action

      Sincerely,

      The customer was refunded for order ********** on 3/14/2023 in the amount of $177.93, and for order LV19861833 $70.07 on 3/13/2023. The difference in both refunds is $15.90, which is the label fee of $7.95 (2) in which the customer used our labels to return the parcels. We processed the additional $15.90 refund on 3/15/23 to settle this complaint, and will send the customer an email.
