      Range USA made my final visit on August 11th and requested by phone cancellation at the store level on the following Monday. Store said okay, I hung up the phone and continued to move on. Today December 16th 2024. While balancing my accounts I noticed they never stopped charging my account. Upon calling the help desk they inform me at the store level the membership cannot be canceled and assured me that the store knows that and since the store goes that they would have dismissed my request to cancel and referred me to the customer service line which did not happen. I've not been to any location since requesting to cancel nor have I used any services from them as I thought my membership was canceled. I would like September October and November returned December was already done so by the customer service.

      The store agent intentionally misled me into signing up for a one-month membership, concealed that it was an auto-subscription, and failed to send any billing information afterward. They quietly deducted money without notifying me. When I reached out, the company rudely refused to refund my money.

      I visited the store to try shooting with a friend. The agent strongly recommended the monthly membership, claiming it would save us money even if we didn’t return. Neither my friend nor I are locals, and the agent was fully aware of this. He didn't disclose that the membership was an auto-renewal subscription intentionally. See the attached reply, they knew they didn't tell me, but said I should look at the TV in the store to know it's auto-subscription, fully intentional cheating.

      To make matters worse, he used my friend's card linked to my email address, no email notifications were sent about the monthly charges, and they didn't even tell us we can have an online account. We had no way of knowing we were being charged. We only discovered it three months later during the Thanksgiving trip when we met in person.

      The range's agent intentionally deceived us into subscribing, and this kind of behavior is deeply disappointing. I expected better from a business in the U.S., especially in a place like *****, where I thought the values of honesty and integrity were respected. I feel shame for them, in *****, where I believed strong, gun-owning people were all honorable cowboys with integrity.

      Better Business Bureau:



      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.

      1. Please see attached for the evidence they provided, it's the best evidence that they didn't say it's auto-subscription. The last sentence of the terms: the tiny font is barely readable. When no agent told you to look at the rolling advertisement on the TV to read the term, no one can see it on a TV screen that’s 3 meters away from the checkout counter. Reviewing all the pricing communications I had, it’s clear that I was never informed about needing to maintain a membership for three months. No non-local would agree to pay for a three-month membership at a store they never revisit and a service they can't use.

      2. They never sent email to inform me the billing, even in the spam or any where of my email, they're lying. 

      I'll do bank dispute and lawsuit to protect customers' right. Their intentional deception shows a bla***t disregard for both the law and the trust of ***** consumers. I will take every necessary step, including legal action, to protect my rights and ensure that justice prevails. The illegal practices must face accountability. I am prepared to invest my time, legal knowledge, and passion for justice.

      Regards,

      M****** is very rude and unprofessional. My membership did not auto renew due to my primary card being expired. I logged into the account & changed my primary card, however that payment method was then removed. Range USA can no explain how and why it was removed. M****** continued to tell me that my payment method was never there even though It was for an entire month before I made it my primary card.. She said that the card was never on file, even though I added it before I made the purchase. She was very hostile, and frustrating in her communicating, and blew off any issues or concerns.

      Hello

      The customer's card was not removed as was explained to him. This card was not put on file.  He would have to update the payment in payment methods for this credit card to save.  This was not done, nor did he want to go through this process so we could keep this card on file.

      (Card already on file since 9/24 was made primary payment method on 12/5/24.  Another purchase was made with same card already on file at time of purchase.  Card was re added 12/6/24 the same day as the conversation in dispute and the card was charged on 12/7/24.  The statement that i did not update my card nor did I want to is a blatant lie.  The businesses last response is now libel, and defamaming because she made a known false statement, furthermore the response further shows the businesses dismissal and unwillingness to address the actual issue that was raised.  If said person would like to reach out to me for a second time to address my concerns which has always been clear as the representative Melissa's handling of the issue, I am more than open, but to be clear any further libel and/or defaming statements will lead to further legal action. )

      Hi, *******.

      As is common practice for firearms retailers throughout the United States, Range USA does not accept returns or exchanges of firearms or ammunition. That policy is printed at the bottom of your receipt.

      If you received a new firearm which you believe is defective, we recommend that you reach out to the manufacturer directly. New firearms are generally sold with a warranty that covers defects, and the manufacturer will repair or replace the firearm for you in that case.

      Used firearms are sold as-is. We still recommend contacting the manufacturer regarding used firearm defects because the manufacturer may be able to repair the firearm outside of the warranty, and some used firearms may even still be covered under warranty.

      If the laws in your state require firearms to be shipped only between licensed federal firearms dealers, you can bring the firearm to us and pay to have it shipped out through us to the manufacturer. If you believe the manufacturer would cover shipping, you will have to contact them yourself to see if they will send you a shipping label. This will need to be brought with you and your firearm so we can ship it out!

      Thank you!

      Hi, *******.

      Our return policy is printed at the bottom of your receipt. Please note the first line: "All firearms and ammo purchased online or in-store are not eligible for return." This is also available to look at at rangeusa.com, and any store associate could also answer any questions about this for you at any time.

      Range USA does not provide any warranty repairs/support. You must contact the manufacturer of the firearm for warranty support. If you need assistance shipping the firearm to the manufacturer, there is information about that in our last response.

      Hello *** *********,

      Thank you for reaching out to us through our BBB page!

      We had to do a little digging as the email provided is in our system, but there is no receipts attached minus a Range Fee. We ended up finding what you were discussing under a different email. It is always important to only use one email for a Range USA account to prevent issues with locating information! Please reach out to us here: **************** to provide all emails you have used so we can merge them together into one of your choosing!

      Upon review of POS Receipt: *******, we found that you put $116.87 down on a layaway for a firearm purchase. Per the notation on the receipt and in the store that you admit in your complaint the store had you read; it does say the following:
      All firearms and ammo purchased online or in-store are not eligible for return.
      General Merchandise can be returned up to 30 days with receipt.
      A non-refundable down payment of 25% on all layaway purchases, and a restocking fee of 25% on all abandoned delays (including the IL required delay)
      A non-refundable 25% restocking fee applies on all ecommerce purchases.

      The rules:
      Minimums – Only one item at a time can be placed into layaway and that item must be priced at$150 or greater.
      Terms – All layaways are 30 days. Final payment and pickup must be
      made on or before the 30th day from the start of the layaway at the same
      store where layaway was initiated. If the layaway is not completed by
      the 30th day the layaway will be canceled. Sale prices apply to the day
      the layaway starts, no layaway for upcoming/past sale prices. Once an
      item is placed on layaway the funds can not be moved to a different
      item.
      Cancellation - If the layaway is closed or canceled, the item will
      be returned to inventory. Any payments made will be refunded, less the
      25% down payment

      Returns - Returns Policy applies to all layaway transactions.
      Payments - Payments can be made at any register.
      Restrictions:
      In stores only (not available for online purchases)

      You did agree to these terms when setting up your layaway. These terms are in place so we will hold the firearm for you and stops the sale for another customer, and should you decide to NOT purchase the firearm, your background check is canceled or denied, it does state that the initial layaway payment is non-refundable. (all information is noted above).

      Thank you!

      Hi, BBB.

      I have attached a copy of *** *********** return receipt as well as a copy of the language that appears at the bottom of all layaway receipts. That second excerpt is the language that appeared on the original receipt provided to *** ********* before the transaction was canceled. That original version of his receipt was overwritten when the transaction was canceled. Note that both versions contain the very plain language "A non-refundable down payment of 25% on all layaway purchases" which casts doubt on *** *********** claim that the terms were "not explicitly explained."

      We do not insist layaway transactions be agreed in writing, and we certainly do not coerce anyone into providing such a signature, although *** ********* would have signed for his payment on the credit card terminal, as his payment was made via credit card. If you would like a copy of his credit card signature, we will need to reach out to our asset protection team for that, and they may require a court order before they will release it to any 3rd party. Please let us know if you would like that and then we will follow up.

      *** ********* did not contact us prior to his BBB complaint. The mention in our previous response of his admission to seeing our policies previously is a reference to the BBB complaint itself, in which he says "Business made me sign a document." That statement implies that he saw our policies prior to initiating his transaction, although, as explained above, the signature he refers to was only for his credit card payment.

      Let us know if you have any other questions.

      Hello, yesterday my mother and I went to the licensing class. We’ve passed the written and then was told both of us failed the shooting portion. This is my first time going through the course. My for sure score was 171 (I confirmed with the 2 trainers) and my mother’s was about 169 I believe. We spent over 6 hours taking this course for us to fail when it was already in the instructor’s head that we will possibly need future training. They then offered that I can take the shooting course again today but had all of the registers closed. I was not able to keep my target sheet either nor was I told it was an option.

      I have been trying to cancel this membership for over three months now and Range USA keeps taking the fees out of my account. I have spoken with serval employees at this location and all I have gotten is a run around. I feel that Range USA block it's member from canceling on their own so that they can keep on charging the fee.

      Hello *** ******,

      Thank you for reaching out to us through the BBB!

      Upon review, we show that up until 08/26/2024, you had never logged into your account, nor have you submitted a help desk ticket to us. 

      We see that on 11/26/2023, you had started a membership with us and two emails were sent to you that day. The first was welcoming you to the Range along with your Premium Membership benefits and links for our policies. The second was a finalization of account email, that gave you a temporary password to finish setting up your account online.

      I also found that there was a duplicate account that was merged into your primary account on 08/26/2024, and multiple emails were sent to you on 08/26/2024 so you could gain access to your account again since the original temporary password email (finalization of your account from 11/26/2023) had long since expired. 

      It looks like two refunds were processed this morning (08/27/2024) for your last two membership payments as a courtesy. These refunds can take up to 5-7 business days to reflect to your available balance based on your banking institutions' refunding policies, and a final email was sent along with those refunds letting you know that you need to check for our emails in your spam/junk folder, as we had been trying to reach out to you again for a few days.

      Thank you again for reaching out! Please know, that you can always submit a ticket through our Help Desk here: **************** (the login box will pop-up. If you do not wish to log into your account first, please click the 'X' at the top right of the pop-up login box.)

      I'm unable to contact customer care to get my account name so I can cancel my membership. My card has been charged monthly since December of last year.

      My husband and I visited the range usa in ******* ******** on June 16th. We had not ever been to a range usa before. The employees we worked with convinced us that a 1-month membership would be beneficial because the one night we were there would cost well over $50. We were assured that this membership was only for a month and we would only be charged for the 1 month. If we wanted to renew, we were told we could come back in the store to sign up for another month. Our credit card was charged that night and we had established our 1-month membership. Then on July 16th, we were charged $53.99 for a membership after being told we would not be charged. I've reached out to range usa customer service 3 times now, to no avail. I need to be reimbursed for the money they took off my credit card without my permission.

      Hello Miss ****,

      Thank you for reaching out to us again!

      We did respond to both of your tickets you submitted. The first ticket ****** on 07/16/2024, we responded the same day and let you know that even though the membership was canceled prior to the 3-month minimum, we canceled the membership for you, and that you would no longer be charged.

      We also responded to the second ticket you submitted, ****** submitted on 07/21/2024 after business hours. We responded right away the next morning on 07/22/2024 letting you know that we had responded to the first response, and that your membership was already canceled.

      We do apologize if the information regarding memberships was missed while at the location! Our Membership information is available at each register and on the televisions. It was also sent to you by email when you signed up for the membership, along with another email to have you sign into your account for the first time. Membership information is also available online under your Membership information and available by click on Memberships at the top of the page.

      We have never offered a 1-month only membership, and we reached out to the store regarding the incident to please re-review with the employees regarding memberships and to actively ask that the customer review the sign at the register to ensure all are aware of how our memberships work. We have processed a 1-time courtesy refund of your July payment and completely deactivated your membership. This refund can take up to 5-7 business days to reflect to your available balance based on your banking institutions' refunding policies.

      Thank you and have a wonderful week!

      At first I was extremely happy, it was the best experience I had with buying a gun. All the staff was amazing and helpful. I purchased a range membership and I put my dream gun (****** ***** ** ***) on layaway for$450 with the gun costing $1,320.42 plus tax totaling $1,425.53 to come back 24 hrs to finalize my purchase. I called less than 24 hrs later to get information on finalizing and picking up my gun that evening. I was routed to the manager and was told that I needed to be refunded and that the gun I bought was not supposed to be sold to me because it was a "range gun". I then said well I have a receipt showing I purchased the gun why cant you let me purchase mine and just get a new one. He replied well you put it in layaway so you dont own the gun and I then said well technically I do, Per your policy and receipt says that once the balance is paid within 30 days that I receive what I paid for.

      He then replied that's a $2,000 dollar gun that has had over 10,000 rounds shot in it (attempting to justify himself since the previous statement didn't make sense). This made me highly upset. Obviously, this does not work for me considering I purchased the gun I want already that they are trying to take it away from me. After expressing this to the manager he replied, that he could offer me 15% off of any gun which means nothing to me and also said he cannot make the decision on selling me the gun. The manager had a very this isn't my problem kind of attitude and trying to get off the phone quickly. Then recommended that I speak to corporate through my login which I am not going to do because this needs to be public and not on Range USAs internal corporate system.

      This was the most unprofessional thing I have had happen to me in a while I want the gun I purchased for the price I purchased it for. I really thought this was going to be the best place I have been to buy I was proven wrong.

      Hello

      We have reached out to the store for additional information.  The firearm you were wanting to purchase is a over 2,000 dollar gun.  Unfortunately, we would not be able to go through with this transaction.  However, the store did speak to you about a discount on your next firearm purchase.  The money was returned back to you via the form you paid.  We do apologize for the confusion on this firearm.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.

      I purchased the gun and have receipt showing the price the business sold it for. The fact that I am being told now again from the corporate that the gun is worth over $2,000 shows the lack of accountability in the company itself and is very unprofessional. A business needs to stick behind what they sale at the price they sold it for. I never agreed to a refund, I was forced into a refund. However since this is the route we are going I will absolutely share my experience everywhere the company is posted.


      Regards,
