      On 8/15/2022 I ordered 2 of the Haslab Hiss Tanks (order #*******) in the amount of $678.23. Soon after I received an email stating that there was a problem charging the card, yet there were plenty of funds and they had no problem when the order was first placed. I had tried multiple times to update to a different card but it did not work on their website so I tried contacting customer service and even requested that they change the quantity to 1 and retry and I assumed it had went through, yet on 9/19 I received an email stating that the entire order was cancelled and when contacting customer service I was told they would not reinstate the order. Since this is a limited item and I was not given adequate help to keep my order, I would like the order to be reinstated, at least for just 1 of the 2 I ordered, I know they will still be produced and they will have extras so there should be no problem letting me buy the ones I ordered. I have a following on my ******* channel and on social media and have always praised Hasbro, I'm hoping they can do the right thing and resolve this with good customer service. Thanks very much.

      Hello *******, 

      Thank you for your email, I have looked into your order and can provide the following details. This was a product that was sold for a limited time during the backing phases. When the order was moved to production on 8/16/2022, we tried to charge your credit card provided and the payment failed from your bank with the explanation of insufficient funds. You then chatted with a Pulse representative on 8/22/2022 and inquired about reducing the order from the quantity of two down to one but at the time did not make any changes to the order as you were informed the payment would be pulled on 9/16/2022 and you stated you would wait. The account was charge again on 9/19/2022 as a second attempt to secure payment and the bank rejected the charge again based on insufficient funds. After the second attempt to secure payment, your order was cancelled. The backing timeframe has ended, and this product is no longer available for order. 

       

      Thank you,

      Better Business Bureau:I have reviewed the response submitted by the business and have determined that the response does not satisfy or resolve my issues and/or concerns in reference to complaint # ********. Please add your rejection comments below; if you do not provide any details, your complaint will be closed as Answered. 

      This is incorrect, I called in again and told customer service to reduce the quantity to 1 and to recharge the card. Then on 9/19 the card was declined despite there being enough funds, I then called customer service to change the payment method but they had already cancelled. Despite all this, my order will be produced and Hasbro will have extra quantity so there should be no reason why I cannot still pay for it. This is absolutely terrible customer service, I have a review channel on ******* with a significant following as well as Instagram and I will not be supporting any Hasbro products from now on as they do not care about their customers. I still want Hasbro to resolve this and I can also take this to small claims court which I am absolutely willing to do.

      Businesses and Customers should be civil, courteous and polite in their responses to complaints. It is important to remain professional and productive when participating in the BBB complaint process.

      Hello *******, 

      We have investigated this claim further as all phone calls are recorded for quality assurance. Regrettably we found no trace of a second call to reduce the quantity of the order, only the chat asking if the quantity could be change but no action to reduce was requested. The account on file for payment as tried twice to secure payment for the order and declined twice by the back for insufficient funds. The screenshot you provided shows that we did attempt the second time without success and the order was then cancelled in accordance with our Haslab backing policies. This product can no longer be secured for purchase and your order is not able to be reinstated.

      I placed an oder through hasbropulse.com (order #******) on 07/28/2022. Prior to it shipping, I emailed them and asked to cancel the order and was given a return authorization number. I refused the package and it was returned and received by Hasbro on 08/05/2022. I have emailed them three times about my refund and have not yet received a refund or a reply to my emails.
