Complaint: 22773152
I am rejecting this response because:
Due to the website malfunctioning, 4 orders were placed. 2 were cancelled by the warehouse and 2 were processed which one of the 2 that got processed is what I was trying to cancel as I didnt actually place the orders they were place due to a processing error. No responsibility is taken by the company for the website malfunctioning which is the issue.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Casio America. This customer called our customer ********************** line to ask if an order can be cancelled. The customer did place 3 orders but in our system 2 of the orders were cancelled. Unfortunately once an order is placed a ticket is sent to the warehouse for the order to be picked. We cannot stop the order from shipping at this time. The customer was advised that the order could not be cancelled and was provided with return instructions that we provide to all of our customers. When it comes to removing links, we always recommend that the watch is sent in to have links removed by a Casio approved technician. If the customer wants to remove the links themselves, they must agree to the waiver we provided to remove Casio from any and all Liability if the product is damaged or lost.
Thank you for choosing Casio. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Casio America. The customer placed orders after business hours on 12/5/24. Once an order has been placed it can not be cancelled as ticket is sent to our warehouse once the order is completed. When we returned to work the following morning the orders that were not cancelled by the system were already processed and being prepared to ship. We pulled the call and confirmed the customer was provided with instructions on how to refuse the package so it can be returned to Casio. The agent also advised the customer that once the package is received to contact us back for assistance with returning the extra product. We would have provided the customer with a courtesy pre-paid shipping label to have the extra watch returned to Casio. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
Thank you for choosing Casio

The Sales and warehouse team has the final say on if the watch can be returned or not.
My response:What does that statement mean: "The Sales and warehouse team has the final say on if the watch can be returned or not."?
It feels like we are at an impasse. I do not want a watch that will degrade quickly, with a temporary fix of replacing certain parts. You do not want to refund the money. How do you propose we proceed?

Please send a return label for the item. I have tried several times to start the process online, but the website never loads. ORDER # ********** INVOICE #**********"
Response received on 10/16/24: not returnable due to signs of wear and tear and beyond 30 days. My reply:
"Thank you for your response. Please note, you responded to the request 1 day after the 30-day guarantee period had completed, however, I initiated the request well before the deadline - on Oct 9th, 2024, with purchase taking place on Sept 14th, 2024. How will you address the unexpected and rapid degradation of the product? What is the warranty on expected conditioning of the product?"
Received identical message about wear and tear. I replied:
"I understand that part. What about the subpar manufacturing occurring within weeks of purchase, not expected from a brand like Casio? If you are unable to address, I would like to speak with a higher up, please."
No further responses received.Business Response

This customer purchased a watch from our website, it as been worn and become discolored due to usage. We cannot accept this watch back for refund. We have offered to pick the watch up and have the discolored parts replaced as a 1 time courtesy.Business Response
Date: 10/24/2024
Hello Please see my initial response to this customer below. However as a courtesy we will pick this watch up and will refund the customer once it returns to Casio.
Thank you for contacting Casio America. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your product. Unfortunately Casio has a very strict return policy regarding our watches. We cannot accept anything back that has been worn. Due to the color of this watch it can become discolored due to customer environment. This issue however is not a warrantable problem. Since we cannot take the watch back for a refund we can provide you with the following solution. As a 1 time courtesy Casio will provide a pre-paid shipping label to have those discolored parts replaced. Please note if the watch becomes discolored again, please feel free to contact our parts distributor to order the parts or you can send the watch in to have the parts replaced.

Dear Casio Customer Support, I am writing to express my concern and disappointment regarding the unavailability of safety test reports for your calculators, which are crucial for consumers to make informed decisions. As a conscientious consumer, I consider these reports essential to ensure the safety and reliability of the products I purchase for our university. Recently, I made a formal request to access the safety test reports for calculators (Casio CG50 and Casio 9750GIII) and from your company. Unfortunately, I was informed that these reports are not available to consumers. This lack of transparency is concerning, especially given the importance of safety in the products we use daily. Additionally, I requested to speak with a member of your leadership team to discuss this matter further and understand the reasons behind this policy. Regrettably, my request was denied, which further adds to my frustration and disappointment. As a long-time customer who values the quality and innovation of casio products, I urge you to reconsider your stance on this issue. Providing access to safety test reports would demonstrate your commitment to transparency and consumer safety, thereby enhancing trust and confidence in your brand. I hope you will take this matter seriously and provide a satisfactory resolution. I look forward to your prompt response and hope to see a positive change in your policies regarding the availability of safety test reports. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.Business Response

Your request has been forwarded to our legal department. We are waiting on a reply and will advise as soon as we hear from them.
Sincerely

Complaint: 21713930
I am rejecting this response because: It does not fix the problem of the backlight turning itself on when I do not move my wrist or arm. And it does not ignore the fact that I was told to turn the feature off to fix the problem. The watch was sent back, delivered by ***** ON 5/30/24. The watch should be replaced as a courtesy for how long I have been trying to resolve this and the fact, I was told to turn off the feature to fix the problem. If they will not replace the watch. Please have them send me information on who to contact next to resolve this issue.

We issued a return label and brought the watch back to Casio. We will replace the band only as a one time courtesy since it was checked on the ** form. No other repairs will be done as we do note that when the watch was received there were deep scratches on the ******* and case ring.

This issue has been resolved with your watch. The auto light feature was NOT turned off and this was causing the problem. Our technical support agent sent a portion of the manual via email on how to perform this function of turning off the auto light feature. The only time the backlight will turn on now is when the button is physically pressed. The band will be replaced as mentioned previously as a courtesy.
