      I ordered a brand new lightbar, Feniex Quantum 49" and was told that it came with the standard foot mount. When it arrived over 2 weeks later, I found there to be no strap kit included. I called Feniex and spoke with a few people and finally ordered the strap kit separate. I was told the final price would be around $35 and delivered the following week. One week later, no strap kid had arrived and $65 taken from my credit card account. After calling to dispute the mishap, there was no information regarding my over the phone purchase, but was later found hours later and was given a 20% restocking fee for their mistake for me to cancel the ill-handled matter.

      We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience you may have experienced during this process, and we appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      On June 15, 2023, you contacted our customer service representative, *******, inquiring about our lightbars and their accessories. During the conversation, ******* clarified that our lightbars come with a standard foot mount, but hook kits are available as an additional purchase. To assist you further, ******* transferred your call to our Sales Representative, *****, who provided guidance for placing your order.

      Following your conversation with *****, you proceeded to place your order on the same day. The order was scheduled for a 1-week lead time, with a projected ship date of June 23, 2023. We aimed to fulfill your order promptly and efficiently.

      On June 22, 2023, your order was successfully picked and fulfilled, and we prepared it for shipment. However, on the same day, you contacted us stating that you were informed your order would arrive on June 22. Additionally, you mentioned that you were under the impression that the total cost would only amount to the price of the hook kit, $39. We acknowledge that there might have been a miscommunication or oversight on the part of our sales representative, who failed to mention the additional shipping charges of $25.59 when processing your order.

      We understand your frustration with this discrepancy, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Our team aims to provide accurate and transparent information to all our customers, and in this instance, we regrettably fell short of our standards. Please be assured that we will take steps to address this issue internally and provide additional training to our sales representatives to avoid similar situations in the future.

      Furthermore, we acknowledge that due to the lead time associated with your order, you expressed a desire to cancel it. In such cases, we do inform our customers about our restocking fee of 20%, which we mentioned during your conversation. We apologize if this was not adequately conveyed to you, and we understand your frustration regarding this matter.

      Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience. Your order was fully refunded on June 22.

      Returned a purchase on 05/30/2023, which was nine days ago, that I purchased using PayPal. PayPal advised it maybe within my best interest to initiate a dispute, given I'd contacted their team three consecutive times about a refund to no avail. Just received an e-mail from their "Senior Accountant", "Andi" that was very condescending and abrasive, alleging that they're going to delay my refund even further given I've initiated a dispute. This is the last time I'll be doing business with Feniex.

      Where to start!!??? Absolutely a laughter of a company. You purchase $700 plus on one item "not including the other 2k +" and they tell you in order for your visor to work you need a $20 part! ??. This info is absolutely no where for you to know. You then pay $80 to overnight shipment and FENIEX sends it 5 days later. **************** informs me I'll have a full refund the next day. That NEVER HAPPENED. I specifically ask how are the takedowns on the quantum interior visor, FENIEX stated (blinding). I CAN ABSOLUTELY CONFIRM, pathetic is an extremely generous description. Takedowns are a complete JOKE!! I also purchased their $350 complete PA/SIREN SYSTEM. Pa/Siren is absolutely WORSE then the quantum visor. Honestly I purchased Sound Off immediately to replace it. It's completely ridiculous how bad it sounds!! FENIEX customer service states you can set any light combo you desire with their software. WRONG, ironically FENIEX doesn't inform you there's an additional $150 fee for the software. Let's talk about their $450 dollar **** Control box. If you're looking to get into an absolute maze of unnecessary clicks and settings for such a simple task a control box is supposed to do, then absolutely purchase the ****. I guarantee your experience trying to set your settings will be as exciting compared to the LOW QUALITY all of FENIEX items offers. There are SO MANY NEGATIVES with this company I can literally write a book. AMAZON definitely has better quality, prices and easy install then FENIEX Does!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't spend your money on these guys. I guarantee you WILL NOT be happy. FENIEX can care less about you and your experience!!! Thank you to the manager that always avoided my phone calls and concerns.AND to "***************************, VP of Sales", PLEASE don't respond with your generic reply and with your pathetic copy and paste of excuses.
