Hey *******,
Thank you for reaching out .
It looks like you still had an active subscription tied to your account, which is why you were being charged. We've gone ahead and cancelled the subscription as well as processed a refund for the unused months. You should see a refund of nine transactions of $7.99 return to you in 3-5 business days. If there is anything else we can help with today, please let us know. We hope you have a lovely day!

I have 5 charges from this company charged to my bank account without my knowledge or my approval. I would have never given permission for anyone to use my card nor any on line transactions, let alone a delivery service to this company! These are all fraudulent charges and I will be filing a report with the police. This company needs to be brought to justice.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
There is no phone number listed for this company. This is not the 1st incident of this company dealing with people making fraudulent charges with other people's cards. I want to speak to a live person and not go through chat messages. This is an absurd way to handle a problem.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:I already contacted my bank and they are the ones who informed me of the state where the charges were made. Clearly there is an account linked to my card with your company because there was several charges made to my card. Your company just does not want to take care of this matter and pass the buck off to someone else. Your company needs to be held responsible allowing these fraudulent charges. Law enforcement will be contacting your message board.

The delivery driver was at the wrong address, he called and was rude, would not even listen to simple directions. The same address that I have had 6 or more other orders from competent drivers delivered without any complications. This driver just canceled order causing my money to be held for 3-5 business days and he still took the tip without completing his job. This is unacceptable and a very poor job of this business to provide services promised.Business Response

Hey *******,
Thank you for reaching out.
We understand how frustrating this experience must have been, and we sincerely apologize. This is not the level of service we strive to provide, and we want to make it right. Could you please let us know if the communication with the driver was over text or phone? We will go ahead and submit a driver report regarding the driver's behavior. If you have any screenshots of the conversation, please send them to us at [email protected].
As an apology, we've gone ahead and applied a $15 credit to your account to use on your next order. Just a heads up: the credit will require a minimum of $27.95 in your subtotal, and it expires in 30 days. It also cannot be used on alcohol or smoke-shop items.
Once again, we sincerely apologize for the poor experience you've had and will work with our team to make improvements. We hope you can give us a second chance to amaze you the next time you order. If there is anything else we can do to help, please let us know. We hope you have a lovely day!

Placed my first order in June 2023. I discovered two of the items were stale after opening them later and completely inedible. I contacted customer support who told me I should have notified them of an issue with an item within 2 hours of receiving my order. These were sealed snacks. I asked how I should accomplish that with sealed food. Like do they expect me to open every sealed bag of food they send to check it's good? Why would anyone do that? It'd be incredibly wasteful to open shelf stable food that must be eaten within a certain amount of time after opening. She refused to respond to my questions and said she'd "make an exception" and I could have either $5 credited to my card or a $5 credit applied to my account. I said an account credit was fine. Flash forward to July 2023 I go to place an order but don't see a credit. I contact customer service and they say my order has to be over a certain amount or the credit won't apply. The first agent never said that. She presented the $5 refund versus credit as equivalent. I said in that case I want a refund instead. The second agent said they can only refund specific items not set dollar amounts. According to the first agent that isn't true and also as someone who has processed refunds before the only refund limit I ever knew of was the total amount that was charged to the card originally. After wasting nearly an hour of my time and trying to transfer me multiple times after I called him out for lying to me, shockingly no supervisors were available. No refund, no compensation for my time, no apology for being completely unable to resolve my issue. No number to call. Only a chat function with customer service reps who deceive, lie and cannot resolve issues. At this point I feel like my whole order should be refunded.Business Response

On Dec.13th, 2022, I placed my very first order with Gopuff and then a second order on Dec. 14th placed a second order. I then noticed that my pay pal had 3 charges of 7.99 in addition to the charges for the two orders placed on those days. I wrote gopuff thru the app and requested they refund those charges as I was wrongly enrolled in their fam subscription which is 7.99 monthly. I explained to them that I was billed 3x for a subscriotion I never agreed to and gopuff then on DEC. 15TH ISSUED AREFUND FOR ONLY ONE OF THE 3 charges. I wrote backthru heir chat help and kept getting booted off. I had forgotten about it and just noticed ib my ****** accoubt that I have been charged $7.99 twice each month on the same day each month and at the same time and it just so happens,to be on the same day, the,13th of each month, that I was first billed 2x in error for the fam subscriotion I never signed on for. I wrote ****** and was told I needed to contact gobrands, tgeir parent conpany which has no public contact listed so I again went thru the very limited app support. I explaind tge situation and was directed to fill out a form which required I list each charge separated by a comna. When I finalky got to the last of the seventeen 7.99's, I was booted again. I went bac to chat help and was tokd I am not a fam member and tgey only hace record of charging me for it once on Dec. 13th whixh they refundd on the 15th. I explained to them that icontinue to be billed everymonth totalling $127.84 of which I want a full refund. I was asked to aend tgem screenshots from ****** account. I xplained that ******* site will not allow screenshots or cipying via tgeir site. Also, I tols thm to look up my phone and gave all in use email addresses. Theysaid they had no record of payments from me of any kind and tokd me to take ir up with paypal. Paypaal directs complaints back to the payee. I pointed oyt thet it is allxinbected to the 2 charges of 7.99 they billed for and continue to bill me for. They said there was nothing morw thwy can so and blew me off by ending the chat.Business Response

To whom it may concern, I tried to place an order with this company and several problems occurred while I tried to used my $20.00 redeem awards (as advertised under my account). First, 90,000 points were needed when 85,000 points were required few days earlier to access to a $20.00 credit. A courteous and informative message regarding this increase would have be appreciated.I haven't received any email/text or phone number from GoPuff informing me about the 5K increase. Second, I tried to use the $20.00 off my order on 07/07/2023 and it did not work. Third, I chatted with a customer representative regarding this issue and he could help me any further and asked me to enter an IT ticket which was done but has not been answered yet. See attachment of my tentative order as well as the $20.00 coupon. Moving forward I would like to receive a $100 store credit applied onto my account as reparations. This company is clearly misleading its clients by providing false advertisement accompanied with deceiving business practices. Thank you again for looking into this matter.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:To whom it may concern,
As per my original. email, I attempted to process the order but I could not do so due to false and deceiving advertisement from your company ($20.00 could not be applied to the order at time of check out + increase of point requirement from 85K to 90k).
Therefore, I did not have any sales order to provide you since I had to utilize an other and actual honest and reliable competitor to fulfill my needs (this information is also mentioned in my original email).

Hey ******************
Thank you for the clarification.
We understand your frustration with the points for the rewards being raised without notice and can empathize that this must have been inconvenient. However, as stated in our TOS, we reserve the right to cancel, change, suspend, or modify any aspect of your Program account, the Program, Puff Points, and/or any Reward at any time, including the availability of any Reward, without notice. You can find more information here: *************************************************************.The $20 reward does require a minimum subtotal of $32.95 or more. Once you reach that subtotal, you should see it reflect at checkout. Unfortunately, we won't be able to provide you with $100 in credits at this time. We do understand your frustration with the increase and would be happy to apply a $10 credit to your account. Just a heads up: the credit would not apply to alcohol or smoke shop items and would require a minimum subtotal of $22.95 or more. It also cannot be combined with any other promotions, discounts, or coupons. Please let us know if you'd like for us to apply the credit!

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:The amount offered is not covering the amount increase required to reach the $20.00 credit (from 85K to 90K). Your company failed to inform your customer about the change. As well as the time spent and wasted with your customer service/ / IT Department and other form of communication to resolve this matter (which could have been addressed in a professional matter from the beginning).
Moving forward, I would require a minimum of $50.00 credit on my account. A reasonable amount that is commensurate to the tort caused by your company.
Let me know if the terms are acceptable or I will take further steps regarding this matter!

I made an account on gopuff after seeing an advertisement. After making an account I realized they were not available in my area so I tried to delete my account but there was no option to do so. In their FAQ there is no information on how to delete your account but if you open a chat window and select you want to delete your account it says there should be an option under settings, it is not there. When I try to talk to someone they say they need to transfer me to someone above them but that person is never available and they try to get you to give them your phone number. I dont feel comfortable giving this company any more of my data since I sent in a request to delete my account and data via email and they responded they dont have to because I'm not in certain states. Referring to a support email, and when I emailed that email it said that the email wasn't monitored and I had to contact through the website, which as I previously stated has also given me the runaround.If they want my data so bad I'm not giving them any more and I want my account deleted.Business Response

Most recent issue occurred on 7/6/2023 around 1:30pm, currently the second other within a couple of weeks with driver issues. One driver yelled expletives because he didn't get a tip after having me run out in the street looking for him. Another driver stood at the corner yelling. Finally today, the driver didn't even make it to the front door and support called me to explain this was my fault. I still don't have a refund or a call back about my issues. My delivery is current on an active mode so I can't use the app again.Business Response
