First of all, no stars. They force you to click on at least one star!
I had placed an order on November 6, 2011. On November 20, 2011, I was uneasy because there was not ever an email sent to me about delivery, order status, nothing and I did not receive the order as of yet so I tried to contact PlanetRX on their 877-61-PLANET (877-617-5263) number. Well, you cannot contact PlanetRX by Phone. They never answer the phone except for new orders only and that is not handled by PlanetRX but an independent call service person who knows nothing about PlanetRX, you, your orders or anything else. They just take your order information, log on to PlanetRX and put the order through like you could do yourself by going to PlanetRX.com. I believe it's just somebody in their living room trying to make a living and takes orders from many online companies like PlanetRX.com.
PlanetRX.com's phone message says to contact them via their online system for anything except new orders! I opened a "Request Ticket" with their online system asking about the status of my order especially since they charged my credit card already. PlanetRX.com never replied so I entered another and another request to no prevail. They just never reply, never send emails, never call you. Nothing! Finally on December 09, 2011, over a month of waiting since the order was placed and my credit card charged, I received a box delivered by UPS from some company not PlanetRX.com. I believe it is some fulfillment company. But the order was incorrect, not what I ordered! So again, I tried calling and calling and opened numerous additional request tickets explaining how the order was incorrect and at this point, I just want to ship back the order and get a refund.
Now keep in mind that I have sent numerous requests to them requesting information on where and how do I send this package back. Of course, no reply. Here it is December 18, 2011 and PlanetRX.com has not sent me a reply, no email, no phone call, nothing! I now contacted my bank explaining everything. They had me fax over the order invoice, packing slip, printouts of the service request correspondence, etc. Well yesterday, I received an additional request from my bank explaining that before they could continue with any kind of grievance, charge back, refund, etc., I would have to --are you ready for this? I would have to take the shipment, box and product(s) along with the invoice and packing slip to a local merchant and the local merchant has to write a letter on their letter head (the local merchant's) that the order is indeed not what is written on the invoice and packing slip.
Do you believe this? My bank wants me to take an order that I ordered from an internet merchant and have it check for accuracy by a merchant that has absolutely nothing to do with the order, sale or anything else with this transaction! Does anyone honestly believe that Target, Walmart, Walgreen, CVS or any other retailer is going to put on their company letter a statement testifying that I did indeed receive an incorrect order from PlanetRX.com? At this point, it's not worth getting upset over these shameful thieves. PlanetRX.com needs to be put out of business! And shame on my bank for such a ridiculous request! PlanetRX.com is the type of internet business that gives internet retailers bad reputations.
From now on, if I can't get it local or if Amazon.com does not carry what I am looking for, then I will just do without. Sorry all you internet retailers, I know most of you are honest but I am no longer willing to take a chance on unknowns in the business. I know I will never buy from an internet retailer like PlanetRX.com again! By the way, I cannot even get a good address of where PlanetRx.com does business, the state and city for if I wanted to file a complaint with the Attorney General's Office of the state or state they are located in.
