    On May 9, 2025, I purchased a Beaglebone Black *** for $76.25. Upon inspection, I discovered several quality issues with the product. The board exhibits multiple soldering defects on its back side, including inconsistent soldering on the upper left corner button/switch, poor solder quality on the bottom left pin connections, and defective soldering on the right side pin connections. Furthermore, the board is covered with excessive flux residue and soldering oil, which is completely unacceptable for a new product. I have attempted to resolve this issue with the company, but they have been unresponsive to my communications and have refused to provide a replacement for this clearly defective merchandise. Despite paying for a fully functional product, I received an item with significant manufacturing flaws that compromise its reliability and usability.

    We have maintained communication with the customer and tried to contact via telephone, leaving a voice message on June 17th, as we were awaiting approval from the manufacturer to initiate the item return process.

    In the interim, we have taken the initiative to process a refund for the discontinued item and have replaced it with a comparable alternative.

    April 17. this company attempted to charge my debit card for $940.15. It was declined because I have never made a purchase from this company. Then again this past Friday, April 26 another attempt to charge my debit card $609.97 was made. Again it was declined because I have never made purchase from this company. This MUST STOP BEFORE IT HAPPENS AGAIN! Not sure what to do!

    I was charged with over a dozen transactions with this company's name of varying amounts on my debit card, stealing the $1,500 had in my checking account and claiming that I owe another ***** on top of this. This company is headquartered in *****; I live in ****. I don't buy anything online except on Amazon. This was my rent money. Somebody using this company's name, or the company itself has robbed me of that money. I want every ***** refunded immediately

    6 Months of processing just to say they don't accept credit cards. They cancel your transactions then require you to do wire transfers.

    We apologize for the experience. Unfortunately, we will not be able to process this order with the requested credit card terms. Should the customer still have a need, PayPal is an available payment method for orders placed through our website, www.mouser.com.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

    Regards,

    ************************* have sent Mouser Electronics screenshots of credit card statement showing payment, *** tracking confirmation, etc.. I feel that Mouser has intentionally created this issue, and its resulted in my having to spend an inordinate amount of time attempting to reach a resolution that Mouser apparently wishes to ignore. I would request BBB intervene on my behalf, as I have exhausted every avenue to achieve resolution through Mouser's customer service options. Attached is a screenshot of my credit card statement with the Mouser Electronics payment showing on Aug 21, 2023 and *** delivery of returned duplicate order.The irony in this is that Mouser shipped the duplicate order to me as a professional courtesy at no charge. When I received the original order back from the incorrect delivery address, I requested Mouser to issue a return label. No good deed goes unpunished by this company I suspect. I was doing what I considered the honest and correct thing, return the second order. I assume that is the problem.

    We order 120 pcs of fans (P/N 978-9GA0612P1H03 ) from Mouser Electronics on 8/3/23, and received them about a week later. Upon income testing, we found 80 pcs were defective and requested to return them. Mouser promptly provided the return shipping label and we shipped the 80 defective parts back. All parts were in the original package and the only thing we did was powering them up to check the ***** level. The tracking # was 1Z7759459048201813 and the return was delivered to Mouser on 9/18/23. Mouser has not committed to refunding us dispite our repeated inquiries. Now that they have received the return for over a month, and they are not responding to our threat of filing complaints agiant them with BBB and other government agencies.

    Our sincerest apologies for the delay in response.
    A voice message was left for our customer on October 30th. A full refund has been applied. We are currently waiting on a response from the manufacturer regarding the defective product. As soon as we have received a response, we will be in contact.

    Found a pending fraudulent charge on my credit card. Called Mouser the same day to report and the company still went ahead with the charge even though I asked them not to charge my credit card or ship out any products. Called again a week later and nothing was done.

Additional contact with the consumer is needed, so a member of our Customer Accounts team is reaching out using the contact information that was provided. If the consumer has not heard from Mouser, he can reach out to us directly.

    This complaint came from a previous employee rather than one of our customers. The concerns were escalated to our *************************** and our Service Excellence Team received confirmation that the former employee received the outstanding pay. If there are additional concerns, it is recommended that *************** be contacted.

    *************************stors, so most likely they were produced to be sold as FETs, and then (by mistake or on purpose ) labeled as 'TIP2955'.I contacted Mouser's customer support, and they refused to replace these transistors.I regularly place dozens of orders with Mouser every year, and this is first time I received fake goods.This is very common when buying this stuff from ***** but Mouser used to be rock solid, and I'm very disappointed with this situation.As far I know, selling fake products, especially so visibly fake, is not legal in this country, and I request a resolution to this problem.
