I tried contacting the company yesterday May 21, 2024 at around 4 PM for a warranty issue. The company advised me that yes my item is still currently under warranty however, they do not have the parts in stock to warranty the vacuum. I asked ***************** if they could replace it with a comparable model and once I requested this, I was hung up on. This is the second time Ive had to contact customer service for warranty issues. The company said my battery worked fine however, after troubleshooting with the company, it does not work properly still and now the handle broke off the vacuum from normal use.Business Response

date of order Feb 18, 2024--- ************ order number I ordered a vacuum cleaner on the above date on line. Since this was not the vacuum package that was advertised on tv, I reordered the one that I saw on tv because it was cheaper. I was advised by a customer service person to return the on line order, and I did. However, each month I am charged $73.13 to my credit card which is the installment plan. I call them and after so many days, my credit card is refunded the amount charged. Whenever, I speak to someone, they say that the problem has been fixed, but it has not. I feel like this should not be happening. It is very emotionally draining to be put on hold when I call them. When I ask to speak to a supervisor, they put me on hold and if someone is available, it may be an hour later. Most recently, which is now, I called in and was told that a supervisor would call me back, that has not happened. I want them to stop charging my credit card for a vacuum cleaner that I don't have. I don't know what else to do. Plus, when they charge my credit card, that I am paying interest.Business Response

Reason for rejection: The response that I read from Shark said that someone would reach out to me. So far that has not happened. And, until my credit card receives the money charged back, I consider this as the same complaint.

I purchased the Shark Vertex cordless Stick Vacuum on July 13, 2023. It started making a very loud squealing noise in April 2024. We called Shark to troubleshoot the problem. The technician had us take a video and submit. He determined we needed a replacement item. On April 20 we were told we needed to pay $20 for shipping. After he took our credit card information, he told us the item was out of stock and it could be up to 4 weeks. I've since called On 5/6/24 and today as the order status says "cancelled". I was told on 5/6/24, that there were a few items in stock and one would be shipped. Today I've been told that my case needed to be escalated. At this point I feel a refund is warranted.Business Response

I was contacted by ******* from Shark. It was suggested I get an alternative vacuum. I am still waiting email confirmation from shark that the replacement vacuum had shipped. Once I have the new vacuum and am satisfied this is an acceptable replacement I will close this case.

May 8th, I called SharkNinja Customer Support about my ***** Air Purifier that had stopped working (which I had purchased around a month or less prior) went through the unnecessarily long troubleshooting and was ultimately told that a replacement would be shipped to me. It has been 2 weeks, and no email with tracking details has been received, nor any replacement product been received.So I called back.Spent another HOUR on the phone, just to ultimately be told we couldnt find it, so we will need to start over. Such HORESHIT.My time is money. On top of sinking $300+ into a stupid overpriced Air Purifier, wasting MY time after it brakes down like a piece of junk to call in and get LIED to apparently, now yall want me to spend another hour or 2 troubleshooting because **** made a mistake? H*** no.Either yall send me a replacement like Im owed, which yall already agreed to do, or I will take further action. And it will cost yall WAY more than the few hundred bucks that I paid for the unit.So sick of companies these days. I hope they all go bankrupt.Business Response

This company is terrible. They have a website called sharkninjainsiders.com with an application to try their Shark Flexbreeze fan for free. You had to pay upfront on ************* would reimburse you. On April 22nd I got an email that I was approved for the flexbreeze fan. On April 23rd I got a followup email from Shark confiming my spot. On April 24th I purchased the fan from Amazon. This cost me $215.99 out of pocket. That's a LOT of money. But I figured I would be reimbursed quickly I could then pay it off before my next bill was due.I tried the fan for a few days. I have a nice review written out. Per the email on April 23rd, the instructions are that after repayment I could write a review. I submitted a reimbursement request.On May 2nd at 6:57 pm I got an email saying they received my reimbursement request. The site said I'd get reimbursed within 3-8 business days. I have a screenshot of this.I then got emails on May 7th and May 12th asking for a review. I had not gotten paid yet. On May 13th I sent an email asking for the status of my reimbursement. No response.On May 14th, business day 8, I sent another email to Shark. Explaining I have not gotten reimbursed. No response. I then went on shark's website and sent an email to their customer service & got a response quickly but they didnt understand that my issue was with them not Amazon. I tried explaining more but got no response. On May 15th I sent an email saying it was business day 9 and I have no reimbursement & got no response.I now go to social media on Thursday may 16th. They respond. They confirm that the site I applied to is an actual website set up by the company themselves. They said they'd escalate the ticket. No response. It is now May 18th. Business day 11 16 days since I sent in the reimbursement request. No response ANYWHERE. I understand that some things take longer than expected but we are 16 days out, my credit card bill is due and I have no reimbursement.Business Response

I purchased a shark vacuum online and paid by a **** debit card. The online ad stated l had 30 days to return the item if I was not satisfied . The vacuum stopped working after 2 days.

I purchased a Shark Robot on March 22nd. That one didn't work, so they sent me a replacement on March 27th. We continued to have trouble connecting it to Wifi and we just weren't happy with it.

I have called and done virtual assistant online more than enough times and my CC still hasn't been refunded. They gave me an escalation #********.They keep telling me they are working on it.

After watching the infomercial, the only package that they showed the entire time was the stratos. True pet + allergen package and advertised it as 6 easy payments Of $44.95 I went to the website listed on the infomercial. Did not notice that the price was different for that exact package. Watched the infomercial again on May 10th Saw The price and realized the difference that I paid was $159 Difference, so I contacted them both the infomercial side and general customer support side on the website, both of which are transferring me and telling me to go back-and-forth that neither of them have control of each other and there's nothing either of them can do, then to be told that the Price for the advertisement on the infomercial was for the basic unit, not for the upgraded package of the true pet + allergen package. I stated that at no point in time. Did they even show the basic package that they only showed the true pet + allergen package and at no point in time did they state Verbally that it was an upgrade to get the true pet + allergen package. It was completely implied that the unit and package you would be getting would be the true pet + allergen package at the 6 payments of $44.95 . Their commercials are very misleading. Like I said at no point in time Did they state that basic vacuum was the One at this price, so it was very easy to come to the belief that it Was the package being shown for the entire segment That would be the price that they were saying the whole time.Business Response
