I ordered a hearing aid to try for my mother and it didn't fit in her ear. I called and was told that they could send me one that didn't have the tips and it should fit, plus it was $20 cheaper. I returned the first one and now, weeks later, I still haven't received my replacement. If and when I get someone to answer the phone, I just get the run-around. I have left multiple phones messages and sent multiple emails without response. I have been told, "It's on the way," "You should have it tomorrow," "I will send you the tracking number today," "You have my word that I will send you a tracking number this afternoon."
I have requested my money be refunded and it hasn't. On January 13th, I finally got someone on the phone and told them that I still hadn't received my replacement. I was told it was on the way, so I insisted on the tracking number, so I could find out where it was. Eric assured me that I would have the number within 30 minutes via email. I checked and within the hour, there was an email from Stamps.Com with a tracking number. The tracking number was created on January 13th, not some day before, so my order wasn't on it's way as I was told.
As of January 19th, the package still hadn't arrived. I contacted the mail service because to me, the tracking message indicated that they had been notified to expect a package, but they didn't have it. As I expected, that was what I was told by the postal service. I had just been given a number, but no box was on the way. I called PerfectHearingAids again and got Rich on the phone. He told me that Eric would be in at 12:00 and he would call me then. I had been told that before and no one called, so I informed him of that. He told me he only answered the phones and couldn't help me. He assured me that Eric would call. I sent an email to support and to Eric once again stating that I wanted a full refund immediately.
I got an email "sent in behalf of Eric" stating that he would be in the office and would call. I did get a call from Eric and he assured me it had been sent, but when I told him there was no activity on with the tracking number and what the postal service had said, he said, "There must be a problem at the post office and the box must be sitting there somewhere." He told me to give him an hour or so and he would go to the post office and find out where it was. He told me, "I can understand your frustration with the postal service." I informed him that wasn't who I was frustrated with.
Well, it has now been more than 24 hours later and I still have no call from Eric. There still isn't activity on the package. I sent another email to Eric, telling him that I wanted my credit card to reflect the return of my money this week. But once again, I haven't received a response. When I was buying, they were oh so helpful and kept telling me how easy it was to return the product before the 45-day warranty if it didn't work. What a story that was. At this stage, all I want is my money back and they don't seem to want to do that. I filed a formal complaint with the Better Business Bureau in the Ocean Springs area earlier this week and noticed that there had already been multiple complaints filed against their company in the last few months.
