    I've been shopping with shophq for about 5 years now and I can't say enough about them. Customer service is great, ordering an item is easy, items are just as they were presented on tv, and shipping is fast. I RECOMMEND this shopping network to everyone who is looking for quality at an affordable price. Believe me when I say, you'll be glad you chose shophq as your go to shopping place. I know I am and couldn't be happier!!

    I purchased a Patricia Nash handbag as a gift to my Mom for Christmas. Upon receipt and inspection, hair was found in the bag. DISGUSTING! I called ShopHQ to remedy this issue before the holiday. They will not cross ship, are inflexible regarding when returned merchandise is received thus reshipped, but eager to take a customer's money without offering some mutually agreeable remedy in the meantime. After waiting 3 weeks (no credit issued for the first used bag yet), I called and was finally shipped another handbag and swipe to my credit card. It was received 1/9/15 and, upon inspection, again, ShopHQ shipped yet another used bag!!! I found $ .21 in the outside slip pocket. Really?!?

    Is there not a law forbidding an electronic retailer selling used merchandise as new without informing the customer? They charged me new handbag prices yet shipped something I had no idea was a returned item. So I was offered an account credit with an expiration date, no doubt. I didn't want that, I wanted what I purchased, new. I informed the designer via her website this day, and it is my hope she will find this practice as abhorrent as I. I will be reaching out to governmental consumer rights resources, trying to find relief.

    I ordered a 55" JVC on 12/12/14 as a Christmas gift for my wife. On 12/16 I was advised it was shipped & would arrive 12/23. I intentionally stayed home all day awaiting delivery even though I had tons of holiday errands to run! Alas, at 6:30 pm I realized no delivery was coming! Nor, did it arrive on the 24th! On the 26th after not hearing from the shipper, or ShopHQ I decided to call ShopHQ. I was told adamantly by a "Supervisor" that they would call the shipper first thing Monday morning 12/29 to find out what the problem was and escalate the shipment! At 4:30 pm Monday 12/29 I still hadn't received a call back from ShopHQ or the shipper. I called back to try to speak to a supervisor to find out what the situation or status was. I was told the supervisors were too busy & I could only go to a voicemail & they would get back to me back in 3 to 5 days!

    Since that was not satisfactory, I decided to cancel the order. They had already charged my credit card $293 and were in the process of deducting the 2nd installment of $293 and I had not even received the TV yet!!! When I asked how long it would be before my money was returned I was told 2-3 weeks! I wanted to purchase another TV for my wife but because they were holding my money hostage I couldn't! I asked over and over to speak to a supervisor but it was all in vain! As of this minute Shop HQ has over $600 of my money, I've not received a call back and have no way to do anything about it! My opinion is if you buy from ShopHQ you have no one to blame but yourself you're the fool! Be forwarned!

    I ordered and to my surprise I got a set of 5 "trial size" Clinique products. Shop HQ charged me $62 + shipping. When my order arrived I was astounded to see that the items were packaged by Clinique with the words "Free Gift" on their box. This means that Shop HQ bought FREE GIFTS from Clinique...and sold them to me at a ridiculous profit. I'm sending the "free gift" right back to them (btw: no return label was included with my delivery. I sat on hold for 1 hour with horrible Customer Service to have one sent to me). I'M DONE with Shop HQ. Quality, selection and service has declined since their switch from "Shop NBC". If I were NBC, I wouldn't want my name associated with this company either. NO MORE SHOPPING WITH SHOP HQ.

    ShopHQ had aired that the Hercules helicopters was guaranteed to be here by Xmas. So we bought 4 of them, we got two yesterday. We will get one today. And the other won't make it at all because they said we will have to reorder. Now we have to return all of them so we're not in fair to the children this Xmas. They said they can't do anything. So the guarantee was false advertisement. Because there is no compensation or even effort to compensate for their error. They ruin Xmas and don't even care.

    When advertising or attempting to sell a product, all information about the product should be disclosed! Cozelle Microfiber Sheets: Worst sheets I have ever purchased. Colors are great. Stitching is less than adequate (very poor and loose). Pillowcases only have one hemmed side stitched to the case. The elastic that goes around the bottom fitted sheet isn't even stitched to the sheet! It is lose inside the small hem! Why aren't these negatives noted prior to purchase by the customer? However, I'm sure they wouldn't sell if this was the case! I wrote and they offered to let me return them for a refund. But it just isn't worth my time, effort or money as it is too late and too close to Christmas.

    I recently placed an order on ShopHQ for a very expensive item and was told I'd get an email receipt. After a week of waiting I called to check on the order. First, I was on hold for over 5 minutes (unacceptable). When I was FINALLY connected to a rep, I was told there was no record of an order for me. When I placed the order I talked directly to a rep and apparently, for whatever reason, she never placed the order. I won't be ordering anything else from ShopHQ - I'll go back to HSN & QVC.

    I never considered buying anything from any home shopping network, especially ShopHQ, because everything is overpriced, superfluous, or just plain crappy. One night while channel surfing, I saw my favorite brand of cold weather boot, EMU, on ShopHq. I had never seen that particular model. The host said it had been discontinued and EMU made it available only through Shophq. I figured it more like EMU was getting rid of the stock. I researched the model, saw that it couldn't be found even on ebay, and decided, based on the pairs of EMU boots I owned over the years, that this was a good boot. If I really didn't like it, I knew I could resell it on ebay. It definitely wasn't bargain priced, but, at $169, it was priced at least $30 below a similar style. I placed my order online and used valuepay.

    The boots arrived when expected and they are great. Excellent EMU quality. Lighter in the sole than other pairs which I actually like. I knew they run large and had ordered down a 1/2 size. All EMUs are very snug when first worn. Because they are sheepskin, they stretch over time to conform to your foot. This style was touted as waterproof. Definitely - I wore them out in a pouring rain and the water beaded off. I feel like my experience is exceptional. I know that most of the name brand items on Hns are made for Hs, and overpriced. Buyer beware, definitely.

    DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SITE. I placed an ordered for a router that was on "valuepay" and had a decent price when compared to Amazon and other websites. A day later I check my order status and it displays as "cancelled" with no further information. Baffled by this I checked my email to see if I got any sort of correspondence regarding the cancellation. I certainly DID NOT cancel my order. Their website seems like it was designed by a first year web design student and the overall integrity of the company seems incredibly POOR. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SITE.

She lives in Utah I live in Alaska. Not too close! It cost her $17.98 each to mail. When I called the first time she said they would give a credit of $20.00 and pay for the shipping here. I called today (I received an e-mail with the receipts) was told they would give me $20.00 for the trouble and $4.99 for each one. Not even close to what it is going to cost me to correct THEIR error. I was not the one who sent them to Utah - THEY were. Why should I have to pay for their mistakes? I thought they were a pretty good company, but they sure have changed my mind. Must be nice to be able to have someone else pay for your goof ups!!

Bottom line is no one can tell me why these product have not shipped. And I think they have some totally RUDE Customer Service Representatives who don't know how to do their jobs.

    Warning to people who shop on those shopping channels. What SHOPHQ, HSN QVC will not tell you about the diamond jewelry. The peddle, those tiny diamonds in those pieces, are shavings from diamond cutters left over from cutting that can't be used for anything else. Those left over are purchased by those shopping channels when they purchase diamond jewelry for jewelry shows. They buy those by the masses for hardly any money. They are put together in India, China, Japan, Thailand, and then selling them to the public at high, outrageous prices. Those shavings have no value. They are valueless and worthless. To make it sound better, those slivers have no value whatsoever. Keep your money in your wallet or you will be scammed by those shopping channels. They are ruthless. They couldn't care less what they sell to you as long as the customer buys those valueless diamond shavings.

    Unfortunately, SHQP CSRs are unfamiliar with the products they sell, the shows that are broadcast and the companies from where the products come. Marquis by Waterford makes 2 types of items, lead crystal and 'Crystalline' (a glass product used by Waterford to allow for lower price points). Have been a customer since SHQP was Shop NBC. It was initially wonderful to be able to find Waterford and Waterford brand products for an affordable price. However, recently, I have encountered the fact that broadcast shows state the product is lead crystal. When you receive, the product is mark w/ lead crystal white sticker. However, ALL of the SHQP CSR including supervisor are claiming that ALL Marquis by Waterford items are 'Crystalline' regardless what they are being broadcast as and regardless of what the item has on it upon receipt.

    Here's the thing, SHQP CSRs are ignorant about the shows, unfamiliar with the Waterford company and clueless about the products that they sell. This provincial inefficiency has caused frustration and a new found lack of trust in not only the broadcast shows but the products as well. Could it be that SHQP is broadcasting 'lead crystal' and selling 'Crystalline' bearing false white lead crystal labels affixed to the bottom of their items? By a statement of a SHQP CSR supervisor, I was asked if I wanted the 800 number to Waterford so that 'I' could contact them. How un-customer service like... Yes? All of this came about because recently, SHQP has been specifying 'Crystalline' in their broadcasts as of this year.

    When I questioned purchases dating back to 2012, I was told that regardless of what 'I' thought, "Marquis by Waterford products are ALL crystalline." I demanded that my money and the shipping costs be reimbursed to me, with the shipping costs paid by SHQP for the return of these items. The SHQP supervisor told me no, by no uncertain terms because the purchases were 'too old'. He went so far as to read to me the history of Marquis by Waterford "... Built upon centuries of tradition, Waterford’s most affordable collection contains designs crafted from crystal and Crystalline, a premium glass construction offering the same weight and clarity of lead crystal" and then attempting to educate me about crystalline which is glass, but as he put it "crystal without the lead." I was also told by a SHQP CSR that crystalline satisfied a Prop 65 issue.

    All in all, it has come to light that there is a great disparity between the SHQP broadcasts, the Waterford & Waterford brand items, and the training/working knowledge of their CSRs. Do not know if I will continue to be a loyal SHQP customer after all of this. But have reached out to one of the Public Figure Hosts of the Waterford shows, and will be inquiring in hard copy to the executive headquarters of SHQP. The jury is still out.

I contacted ShopHQ and told them about this and was told that they would not honor the price difference and they always advertise the lowest prices and you can go to the product website and find it higher.

    Received a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket i727 cell phone as a gift. Came with a 12-month warranty. Had trouble with it now and then. Two months into use, the display would not operate -- dark screen, but navigational buttons on frame would light up. Examined it under bright light and discovered a lightning-shaped hairline fracture on the interior bezel -- the exterior bezel was smooth and intact. Assumed this to be the problem. Emailed customer service, was given Samsung's number. Samsung reviewed the device's IMEI number and apologized that they could not honor the warranty, because 1) Shop HQ is not an authorized dealer 2) Shop HQ had sold an out-dated device 3) Shop HQ had sold a device that was already so old, its 12-month warranty had long ago expired.

    Re-contacted ShopHQ. Was given a number to their Customer Service "CCR" (which I found out was a subcontracted warranty company), and after spending nearly a week explaining, describing, and photographing the cell phone so that it could be determined fit for fixing or refunding or replacing, I received an email stating they could not help me because I couldn't verify that the device arrived with a problem. So, advised ShopHQ of this, and received an email stating they could do nothing for me. Recited their "30 Day Return" policy, offered a murky conflation of manufacturer's warranty policies and their own. But for me, it meant I received Nothing. Nothing. They received payment, they knowingly shipped a possibly defective and assuredly outdated and warranty-expired device which they had advertised to be new and under warranty for the next 12 months. I am more than offended, disgusted, and appalled by their policies and procedures. They certainly stole from me and took no responsibility for ethical resolution. Shameful.

    On March 28, 2014 I purchased a PROSCAN 10.1 Google certified Android tablet for a total of $145.61. The product came with a carrying case and keyboard. I thought it was a really good deal for the price. I noticed the more I used the system the slower it got. I went to use the product towards the end of last month only to discover the tablet cannot locate the Google Android operating system. I reset the product several time, money wasted.

    I called SHOPNBC and was told to call Proscan customer service number which I did. After a 10 wait on the line I was told the company was located in CANADA and they could only send me a refurbished product. I told them I was not interested in a refurbished product and wanted a complete refund my money. I was then given a email address and told to contact the company and I would receive a response within 48 hours. I sent a email to Curtis International on the 1 or 2 of July 2014 and have yet to receive a response.

    If, at any time, I had known this product was not made in America I would never had purchased it. I felt that I was misled by SHOPNBC, at no time did I hear this product was not made in America. I came to the conclusion that I am out of my money. Do your homework before doing business with SHOPNBC. I was told they only offer a 30 day money back guarantee on merchandise. When it comes to electronics made in undisclosed countries you are on your own. Learn from my mistake, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. This company should be more forthcoming with origin of production. Very disappointed with SHOPNBC. I will never do business with them again! Never!

Don't do business with this company. You will regret it like I said. I have been calling and working on this now for almost a month with no results. RUN and DON"T LOOK BACK. DON'T BUY IT. I sure am sorry I did.

    Bought a watch on ShopHQ, paid the bill online. The payment would NOT go through. I found out they would not accept my savings account for payment. Only checking account, Master or Visa not American Express which is a choice on the website. I would have just paid with the AE in the beginning, now I have to pay an extra 10 dollars if I pay by debit card. When I call, it takes at least 3 minutes of listening to a machine to get a human being.

    I purchased a portable air conditioner and didn't like it. Paid $29.95 shipping and when I went to send it back, there was no paid return so it cost me another $55 to send it back. So for something that was no use to me cost me $85.00. Most shopping channels send return paid labels so I will not be doing business with this new shopping channel. Very disappointed in service.

    I ordered some clothing from ShopNBC a few weeks ago. After trying everything on, nothing fit. So I returned them and the shipping fee was deducted off of each piece. All in all, I lost over $33 in shipping costs, counting return shipping. Never had this happen before. Will not order anything from them that has a remote chance of having to be sent back. I did not check return policy so I guess it is my fault.

    I ordered a product right before Christmas. I was out of town when it arrived, but picked it up as soon as I was back about a week later. I was very excited to get the product home and try it out. But when I pulled it out I discovered it came with a European power adapter, which is useless in my American home. I double checked to make sure I didn't make a mistake and order the wrong product, but there was nothing anywhere on their website or my order that specified what country the product was for, so I figured I was safe - especially since it was shipped from within the U.S. I contacted customer service asking if I could exchange it for the country-appropriate model. Two e-mails later I still hadn't heard back from them, so I tried again. No problem, they said. They can just send out a replacement adapter that will work in my home.

    Five days later that order is cancelled (I was not notified, just happened to be wondering where it was so checked on the order). Turns out they didn't have the part in stock. No biggie. So I e-mailed them again about my options, if that was a part that might come into stock or if I should just return it. Again, no response so I e-mailed again. Was told that they wouldn't be able to get the part I needed so I could return for a refund or keep for a 10% discount. I explained that the product was useless to me without a correct adapter, so why would I keep it and pay for it? So I packed it back up and returned it with their mailing label they had provided. The day after I mailed it back I receive an e-mail that they had shipped the correct adapter to me. Huh? I was told that wasn't possible, and now I've returned the product and can't get it back.

    I e-mailed asking them what was going on and telling them to cancel the order. Again, no response. So I e-mailed again stating the product was returned so I had no use for the adapter, so please cancel the shipment. Finally days later I get a really nasty e-mail back that they can't cancel orders over e-mail and I should have called--well I didn't place the order to begin with, so how is this my problem, especially since that was never mentioned in any of the previous conversations with them? So I called UPS and had the package held at their facility since I didn't want to accept delivery of it, then told them what I did and that they could deal with it from there. After all was said and done, they charged me a $14 restocking fee for a product they sent me that I wasn't even able to use. Will NEVER order from them again.

    Used Value Pay a few times in the past. This particular time apparently they could not recognize that I had an address change despite shipping my product to the new address when they attempted to charge the card. This endeavor to believe led to the card declining. After more than a dozen phone calls and several discussions with managers, it still was not fixed. At this point, I had to call again just to pay it off once and for all. The management team was snide and uncaring. They could care less that I cancelled my account with them in offered no reconciliation whatsoever. Do not, I repeat, do not use the Shop HQ in Value Pay if you value your sanity.

    Only reason there is 1 star is because you can do negative! I was watching SHOPNBC.COM and they had a Toshiba hard drive that I wanted to purchase but had a question about the product 439-723. I CALLED TO GET INFO the rep didn't know the answer so she said that she would put me through so I could ask the Toshiba rep Elliot. She transferred me but they would NOT answer. This went on for 3 to 4 hours. So I called back again angry!

    So finally I got a answer that I would have to from this rep that you can use on a Mac & PC but you must re-defrag. I said if you do this then you will lose all files. She says no you won’t BS! I said I wanted to talk with the Toshiba rep Elliot she said he is in a different building and would not call over there so I could speak with him, NOT THEIR POLICY! And this was within 3 min of him being off the air. So I said I wanted to speak with manager. Said she was on another call so within 24 to 48 hours she would call me back, I said unacceptable. So after waiting approx. 2 to 3 min Kelly got on phone. I explained what had been going on. She said only thing I could do is call Toshiba for answers. Now I had gotten a number from previous rep but she gave me 2 other numbers. Get this, all 3 of the numbers were wrong so I looked up on internet and got correct number.

    I called them and they said they have had numerous complaints about this product as well as others. I filled a complaint with them and suggested that they stay with QVC as they have ALWAYS found answers to questions. I have had in no longer than 2 hours NOT 3 TO 5 DAYS!

    About 2 or 3 months ago I opened a ShopNBC credit card. Since that date, I was informed by their Customer Services Representative that I cannot use the account which I have been using for at least 7 years with this new card. They said I had an OLDER account and would need to use THAT one in order to use my ShopNBC card. I didn't remember the old one, however, I did what they said. I recently ordered a set of very expensive sheets, which I really wanted, and they sent it to an address that I lived at over 7 years ago! Now they are giving me all sorts of excuses why they can't fix their error! I told them to consolidate both accounts into one.

    Why can't I use my ShopNBC card on the account I have been using for the past 7 years? They told me I have to try to find out who lives in that house and try to get back my sheets!!! Are you kidding me? That address is more than 20 miles from my home through very heavy traffic, and do you think they are going to give me back an unopened set of sheets, even if I were willing to do ShopNBC's job for them? You know they have seen this as a "gift" and they are using those sheets, and I paid for them, and ShopNBC is not doing anything to fix this problem, other than telling me what "I" need to do!!!!

    I am absolutely furious! I have spent THOUSANDS of dollars with ShopNBC for about 10 years now, and they are going to treat their long-term customers this way? If this is not fixed by tomorrow afternoon (Friday, August 30, 2019) close of business, I will be closing my account all together and I will report them to the Better Business Bureau, the Department of Consumer Affairs, the Attorney General, and whomever else falls into the category of being an advocate for consumers who are treated badly. One of the CSRs even told me I could not use my NBC card anymore, and she gave me a new password, as they had done something to the one I created, and this new password is 68 CHARACTERS LONG!!!

    As a very careful shopper, who by no means takes advantage of return policies, I received an email on 6/10/13 from ShopNBC warning me that my purchases in 2012 showed a 50 percent return rate. And, if that continues, I would be barred from shopping there in the future. Let me say this, there are many legit reasons for returns - defective merchandise (of which there were many), wrong size, and just plain junky stuff that their website made to look much better. With that said, I pay for each and every return. So it's not like I returned items for the fun of it. I am now returning my last two purchases even though I intended to keep them.

    I purchased a Nintendo DS for my granddaughter about a year and a half ago. I made three of the value pays just fine. On the third, I noticed the billing was a different format and that the amount was more than it should be. I assumed that I had missed an easy pay somehow and made the payment even though it was more than 2 easy pays together and that should have completed the purchase. Then the next month, I got billed $79.00 that again did not match the amount in any way. I called ShopNBC and they said that the value pays were paid in full and the account was fine. I then started receiving calls from ShopNBC... I couldn't figure out what was going on.

    Several hours spent calling different customer service numbers, I realize that ShopNBC and Shop BC credit card are two different companies and do not communicate with each other. Now I am dealing with GE Money Bank. I still do not know how GE Money Bank intercepted my easy pays. I requested documentation and they keep sending the same 3 statements - nothing prior to that when I was making my easy pays to ShopNBC. I requested that it go to the resolution department, and never heard anything from them except another copy of the same 3 statements. They opened the account back up and started charging late fees. I offered to pay the $79.00 just to stop the harassment, but they wouldn't accept it.

    This company is based in India. It is like talking to a brick wall. They just keep repeating the information they have and not understanding what you are trying to tell them. Now it has gone to one lawyer who was very insulting, rude and did not even want to hear my side. He gave up and now another one is harassing me with calls and letters. I am not going to pay $249.00 to these people for an item that is paid for already. There is no way to resolve this matter except to let it continue to ruin my credit. I am tempted to pay the money, but it is a matter of principle at this point. They have already ruined my credit for no reason.

    I spoke to Janet today, 4-19-2013, phone number 1-866-597-1513 and the supervisor/mgr. Dominic. I had opened a ShopNBC credit card and I was not advised that if you close your account, you have to wait 1 year to re-apply. I was told that I was notified of their policies, but I was not. I had a credit score of 820 and now, due to the fact that I did re-apply for this credit card twice, this made my credit score go down. The letter that I just received from GE Capital Retail Bank Creditor for the denial said the reason was "Previous Application Approved." That is not enough information and the employees of ShopNBC are not aware of this, as they are not the creditor, but they do promote the credit card 100% in order to obtain more business.

    I sustained in April 2008 a severe head trauma Injury, and I have short term memory. Therefore, I asked Dominic to send me the letters that the company he works for, so that I have proof of what they are telling me. I was refused to obtain the documentation, and then I was told to write to Value Vision Media Inc. if I was told verbally that the company would not send me all the documentation to me, so that I may review their policies, as they caused my credit score to take a hit, and it takes 3 years to repair.

    This is an injustice and with a refusal to obtain the documentation and policies that they are going by, I can't know if they are lying if they don't send me a copy of all the information that they based their decisions on. This is unfair practice and under the Constitution, I have a right to all evidence for my records.

    I would like a copy of all documentation that states all the information, as I was advised today, 4-19-13, of their policies. However, I was refused entitlement in regards to the documentation that they claim they notified me and that I can wait one year to re-apply, but it's on my credit report and it will remain on my credit report for 3-7 years. I had a head injury trauma in 2008, which caused permanent short term memory. I wanted to speak to the CEO, but I was told that I had to write only to an address.

When I asked them about it, they said it was tax on the return shipping and handling. That is bogus, because using their tax rate, the tax should have been $.52.

I have written to them at least 55 times and have documented every time with the date, time and the name of the person with whom I spoke. After the first year warranty was expired, I called their alternate warranty company. I gave all the information to a young lady name Sanyia (has a foreign but quite understandable accent). She looked into my serial number and the product from Acer sold by Shop NBC on TV. She had no doubt at all, advised me that the unit I received was a refurbished unit.

    The PC's screen went blank after less than 2 weeks and it has not worked since. I sent it to the Acer company during the first year and received the unit back without any explanation. The only response I got was the cost of the shipping to and from Acer in Texas. I called Acer and all they could say was, "We can't find the information, but this computer's motherboard was damaged by fluid." $1,200 is a lot of money to me and to a lot of other people too. After dealing with this alleged head of Consumer Affairs, I do have his name on the calendar, I started to keep up after this issue began. He said I would receive either a completely new Acer 17" PC or I would receive a complete refund within 3 days.

    I heard back from him once after speaking with him and then when I called for a full 2 weeks every single day, I never received another return call from this man or any other Shop NBC person or any Acer person again. I now have to pay for an attorney since I know and they know they sent me a refurbished unit, not a new one.

    I deal with ShopNBC on a regular basis and most of the time, with no problems. The problem I am dealing with now is their adjustment to sale items. ShopNBC's policy is, if an item goes on sale within 30 days for less than you paid for, you get a refund of the difference. The problem is you don't get taxes back with the refund difference. If they charge me taxes on the full price of the item, I should be getting back the taxes on the difference as well. If you take the difference without tax, they apply it to the item in question. If you request "taxes back on the item", they just give you a shop credit. And you have to ask for the taxes back on the refunded amount. I'm sure most people do not know enough to ask for their tax money back on adjustments. They seem to be making a lot of money if they are keeping the tax money due back to the customer on adjustments. This is not a one time deal.

    Lately, I keep a close eye on the items I purchase and if they go on sale within 30 days, I call for an adjustment. I only noticed within the past few weeks about the no refund of taxes on the refunded adjustment. Ex: I ordered a ring item #125-264 for $229.50. The next day, it went on sale for $189.67. Difference is $39.83. When I called for an adjustment, the girl was only going to give me back the $39.83, without including the tax on the $39.83. When I questioned her about the taxes, she had to put me on hold then came back with the $41.11, which I got back as shop credit. No a refund of $41.11 towards the item.

    I'm confused. Am I not correct in assuming that ShopNBC is basically a retail business? So let's say I go for an adjustment at Macy's, something that I bought for full price and it goes on sale within a certain amount of time, Macy's will refund the difference to me including taxes on the refunded amount? So why doesn't ShopNBC do the same? Does Minnesota have different tax laws than most states? Thank you for your time in this matter.

When I inquired about it, I was told that if an individual used the return label provided by ShopNBC, they were charged $7.99 for each item in the package. Therefore, if you had 3 items, your return shipping fee was $24.00

    When you deduct $7.99 from $57.65, you get $48.66. Yet, I received $38.99. Customer Service told me the difference was the sales tax which they did not refund. This is outright fraud and racketeering. This company should be put off the air. On subsequent returns, I found that they kept approximately $10.00 for every return. I am going to sue.

    On December 22, 2011, the mattress was delivered with a 30-day return policy. I called on February 22 to say the center was caving in and no support. It took 30 days to get someone out from Serta after repeated calls. Yes it's defective. I stopped payments until I get a new mattress or take this one back. NBC has been no help, just you had 30 days to return. I get 9 calls a day from NBC, to pay and threats of a collection agency. This is a defective merchandise and they do not stand behind their products. It's between me and Serta. I'm waiting to hear from them, and called NBC back as I had promised after the inspection was completed. Also, I informed them of laws pertaining to harassment (so many calls). They do not care about the defective product they sent me, only getting paid for it. We're not talking about a few dollars, it's $800 or more. Never will I shop NBC again.

I have been calling the customer service for several months and each time, I get a different explanation about the return but still they do not put a credit on my credit card.

    Back on December 19, 2011, I place an order with ShopNBC.com online for order number ** 10 pc cookware set and order number ** for 2 skillets. According to their website, I could use ValuePay as long as I had a major credit card, which I did. I followed through with placing the order using my Bank of America debit card and then later I added my Master Card to the account so monthly payment to be debit against. Products were shipped and received.

    Next thing I know, I receive a letter from them that they were going to decline my account because of information that they had gotten from the CSC Credit Reporting Agency in TX. I still have the letter in my files. I also sent a copy of the letter to the bureau asking them to please explain what ShopNBC was talking about in the letter that something was wrong.

    So they never charged either of my credit cards on file for payments and the next thing I know, I get a letter from them in the mail demanding payment in full. I sent them an email explaining the information they had received was wrong and I had contacted the bureau for an explanation or an apology to them for wrong information. Plus, I had informed them that I would pay the account off in full on March 1, 2012.

    Now 2 days ago, I get two letters from NES collection agency out of Solon, OH. How convenient for them both in the same town. I have disputed the validity of the debit with them and have contacted ShopNBC about this and no response. I have also filed a complaint with the BBB of Ohio and now your office.

    Six years ago, I bought a Spectronic "HDTV" televison after seeing it on ShopNBC. I paid $850, but was promised a $150 rebate. During a week's stay in the hospital, the set was delivered. My son set it up. At the time, my cable service was analog. The set operated fine in analog.

    The first problem I had was in receiving the $150 rebate. I received no paperwork to request the rebate so called ShopNBC. They told me they were not responsible for rebates and to call another company. When I called the other company, they said they would send me the form. I waited for a week and again called them. They told me that they were not going to send it, because the time period had expired. This was approximately 3 weeks after I ordered the set.

    Six years later, my cable finally went digital. Imagine my surprise when messages on several channels informed me that I could not get digital signal. When I called the cable company, they indeed confirmed that the set could not get a digital signal. Now, the frame in the front of the set has letters HDTV. On the back, there are hook-ups for analog or digital antennas . The setup instructions also describe setting up for digital signal!

    I believe someone owes me $850, and ShopNBC and the manufacturer should be charged with fraud and false advertizing. I realize that being able to write this complaint will probably be my only satisfaction; they have more lawyers than I do. However, if I can save one or more people from shopping with them, I'll feel somewhat vindicated.

I then discovered that it was in the invoice they sent me after three days of the purchase. So, I asked him to tell me how can I pay the $10. He told me to buy $10 PayPal card and send it to them. Unfortunately, it is not available in my cities so I asked him for another way. He told me, "Sorry, there is no other way."

    Apparently, ShopNBC likes to defraud the public!

    I purchased two "24K Gold" bracelets from ShopNBC back when the prices of gold were around $300/$400 oz. Today, I took them to three different gold dealers/jewelers to see what they would be worth, since the price of gold is 4-5x what it was when I purchased them.

    All three of the places did tests on the bracelets to see if they were really 24K gold, even though the clasp was marked 99.99. Imagine my shock/anger when I was told by all of them that the bracelets don't even test out to be 18K gold! So, even though the price of gold has increased so much, the bracelets are woth less today than what I paid them for!

    I offered ShopNBC an opportunity to explain why they sold less than 18K as 24K. So far, nothing. Apparently, their goal and the goal of Lambert Chang is to defraud the public!

    So as to not seem like a personal attack, I'll refer to ShopNBC vice using the form of "you", doesn't seem to understand: (1) I've talked to the local regional supervisor of Alexandria, VA Post Office. He went over the information & re-instated the delivery confirmation number so that it could be seen yet again by ShopNBC; (2) I purchased delivery confirmation to avoid this very scenario. They (USPS) have already said they are not responsible since it was sealed, signed for and delivered; (3) What ShopNBC has now done is make me, the customer, responsible for the vendor's in-action to account in a timely fashion a discrepancy. Your very email states that the vendor discovered (and how long after the delivery date of 1/10/11 are they saying this) the box was empty, and I was previously told it was received. I, as the customer, have no responsibility to your vendor in all the correspondence back to me, the one consistency is what the vendor said. That is not my concern.

    My concern is how ShopNBC is going to resolve my complaint. I did everything that needed to be done. I never took the contents out of the box. When it left my post office, it had (1) X-BOX and all that came with it. It was weighed and based on that weight it cost me $13.61 to mail. I showed you proof of everything I just stated. The proof was the delivery confirmation itself, and the receipt which confirmed both the delivery confirmation tracking number as well as the cost connected to said confirmation number. As of today, 5-05-11, I spoke with yet another ShopNBC representative who agreed it did sound like I got a bad deal, but at the end of the day, apparently based on the fact that the vendor (really beginning to hate that word! ) now says the box was "located" (yet another indication that something is off with said vendor), the words located and the fact that it was great lapse in the timeline in all concerned becoming aware of this "possible discrepancy indicates to me that my return package was lying around someone's warehouse! And so now I'm getting the screws put to me, the customer, to ShopNBC not the vendor .

    I should not have to pay the cost of what appears to me to be issues between ShopNBC and "vendor". As the ShopNBC customer, why keep referring to the vendor as the reason for me not getting a credit issued back; my contract was with ShopNBC. As a customer service based company, ShopNBC in good faith and based on what I have shown to be a good faith effort on my part, should at the very least offer me an "in store" credit that I could use. No, ShopNBC would rather lose a customer then even make an offer, which while I may still feel I got the initial run-around, I could have at least felt vindicated and appreciated, and much more likely to spread a favorable customer service experience among other potentially new customers as opposed to spreading my frustration with dealing with this incident. Especially in today's economic trying time, while we may have the money to spend (and I speak from an avid online consumer shopper), we are becoming more and more selective about who we part our hard earned money, too, and a lot of that decision is contingent on how good was the customer service.

    So far, in my trying to bring this issue to closure, I've used what amounts to approximately 4 workman hours at a cost of almost $200! Really, it should never have been this hard.

    I’m out $200 for an item I don't have because I returned it and received confirmation from ShopNBC's Returns Department. This item was returned on 1-10-11, and on 5-5-11, I was told by Ms. Kesha ** of ShopNBC, president’s office, that I was basically out of luck.

    So I filed a dispute at the bank. I am disabled, and they took everything I had. I refuse to accept their mistake; I don't think it was a mistake. I think that this is a practice in which they are storing credit info and when they are short, they are billing 1000s of people at a time and holding funds as long as possible to keep their selves in business. There are far too much of the "Nothing we can do about it." going on there, as well as to many being billed and fraud any item they have in inventory that they want shipped.

    I would like to issue a formal complaint against SHOPNBC. I feel that my trust and consumer rights have been violated; although I have contacted their customer service on numerous times over the past weeks, I have gotten only verbal assurance, mixed and empty promises, and verbal abuse without resolution. I am also still owed a refund of $700.

    On November, after seeing a Mitsubishi 73-inch television advertised on their network for $2300, I called in to place an order. Although I had an existing account, I was told in order for me to make use of the 0% financing options on 12-month value pay would need to apply for SHOPNBC credit to make the purchase, which I did. I gave the representative all my information at which time they placed the order pending approval. I later found out after checking my personal credit card on file that they had charged the full amount and taken out the full payment of $2300.00 without my authorization. At that point I called and cancelled the orders and after 7 days they returned the funds. I later was told they could not find any credit history and I was not approved for the SHOPNBC credit options.

    I called again to inquire why I was not approved and explain to the customer representative my change of address. They informed me that they had two accounts set up in my name, one with the old address and the other with the new address. After explaining my change of address, the customer representative said that they would remove the old account and keep the new account but would update my credit worthiness so that I would be able to purchase the item whenever it was advertised in the future. She further told me to place the order again whenever the item was advertised to make use of the financing options. I then placed the order a second time.

    However, SHOPNBC never removed the old account and when I was approved for the credit; they only updated my old account and instead of deleting the order and went ahead to process the first order. So in fact I had two orders for the same item, one under my old account and the other under my new account. Couple days after they charged my credit card for the first installment of over $700.00 for one and a few days after took out another payment of $700.00 for other. I called SHOPNBC and notified them at which time they said one installment of $700.00 would be refunded to me and the account would be deleted. It was only the day when I scheduled the item to be delivered that I realized that I had notices for two deliveries for two of the same item. I scheduled the delivery and received one item. I called SHOPNBC immediately and was told by the representative to refuse the second delivery, which I did. The item was never delivered.

    However, 7 days passed and I still did not receive the refund of $700.00 for the down payment they mistakenly took out due to the duplication, which was no fault of my own. I called SHOPNBC again at which time the representative said it would take another 7 days for the mistaken down payment to be refunded. After 10 working days on December 23rd, I called again but was told by the representative that the manufacturer needed to receive back the item in order for my refund to be process. I explained my situation and even spoke to a manager who was very rude and told me that I had placed two orders and would have to wait to be refunded. They further sent me a statement telling me that installments would be taken out for both items.

    To date I have not received my refund of over $700.00. I have not received any phone calls, emails or have not contacted about my refund or the duplication. As I mention to the manager and the customer representative since I only receive one item why should I be paying for second which I never received. I subsequently called my credit card company and requested new cards. I cannot afford to pay $2300 for an item that I never received. I acknowledged that I owe for one item and world resume the agreed payments arrangements but only when my situation is resolved with regards to my refund and the erroneous charges for second item. I have made numerous phone calls to SHOPNBC, lost $700.00 in funds and is paying interest for these funds for an item that I never received. I would appreciate whatever assistance to can give on this situation because I am afraid that my credit rating would drop and would be placed in collections for a situation that is not my fault.

Instead of paying ShopNBC the last value pay of $15.40, they listed the credit on my statement. I must assume responsibility here, not realizing they did not forward the last value pay. I requested a check for the credit balance and also had them close my account. I received a call from ShopNBC's re-authorization department requesting their payment of $15.40.

Yes, that went out on Nov. 30." About 1/2 hour later, another representative called and after my 3rd explanation, he told me that my letter was mailed on Dec. 2. Now I am beginning to wonder what is going on. I assured them I would make the payment as long as I had back-up to their claim for my own records, just in case they'd say they never received payment.

    They also told me that I would need to mail my payment to a different address and that would be provided in the letter. Just before dinner, I received another call and just hung up. Around 8:45 pm, yet another call regarding the same issue. I told the man that the matter has been discussed and I am waiting for my letter with mailing instructions and he told me that there will be no letter, that I owed the money and in a very threatening voice said that my case will be turned over to a collection agency.

    I purchased a camcorder around summer, and according to them it was delivered to my address, but I never received any package. According to the delivery company, it was signed by someone claiming to be me. The delivery company told me that they are not responsible for the lost item. They advised me to call ShopNBC because they were the sales company and they were responsible and not FedEx. I called ShopNBC and they told me otherwise. They don’t want to take responsibility of the lost package, but they did take the money out of my credit card. I would gladly appreciate if you can help me with this matter. Thank you.

    I ordered via telephone a stained glass lamp, very muted in color, pale yellow and grey. In the same order, I also ordered a column lamp with flowers. In September 2010, they arrived. The lamp was a gift for a gentleman for his birthday and to be used in his office. It was definitely very muted in color and would be something a man would like. The packages arrived, and a longtime shopper with ShopNBC, and the fact that I have ordered at least 5 stained glass lamps from them along with lots of other items. I knew that these lamps were packaged very tightly with the white Styrofoam and once you open them, you can't get the item back in the box without a hassle.

    Well, my male friends birthday was in the middle of November and I bought out the sealed box for him to open. Well much to my embarrassment, it was a apple blossom lamp, absolutely not the lamp I ordered. I called ShopNBC immediately and told them. They immediately told me too bad, it was passed 30 days and I reiterated the above that it was a gift, the packaging issue, etc. All I want is the lamp I ordered and I will exchange it for this mistake they made. Well again, after another email and call, I was again told too bad, I had to keep the lamp.

    This lamp did not even leave the box. All we did was look at the flowers and it is sitting back in its Styrofoam box waiting to go back and ShopNBC will not even allow me the courtesy of shipping it back and sending me the lamp I ordered. I am so frustrated with them and their curt and who cares attitude. I have recently read their blog and there are a lot of unhappy customers too. I did not think I needed to check on them with regard to the item I ordered and now I am stuck with a flowered lamp that I can't even give away. I am tempted to contact their new CEO and tell him about this. I have no problem with you sharing this complaint on the website.

    I order an Ed Hardy 3 band changeable men watch in late August, 2010 and setup for value pay times five months. At the time of advertisement, the hosts stated that this was a onetime price of a $128 and some charge ($25 value pay). They stated that they will not have this watch again.

    Now on Tuesday, November 23, 2010. I was up watching ShopNBC about 2am and they were advertising the exact same watch for $87 and five value pay for $16 a month. I called them the next day to explain this and I was told there was nothing they could do about it, but if I wanted to purchase another watch for that price I could. I told the gentlemen, that I did not want to purchase another and how could I go by getting the difference from what I paid. He told me I couldn't and I was scheduled to have my fourth value pay deducted in 3 days. I explained to the representative that watch was still in the box with all its original packing, because I purchased this watch for my son as a Christmas gift. I am disappointed in this company as their returns and or sale price differences.

    I tried to purchase an item today using their ValuePay. When I went to check out, it did not give me an option to make ValuePay. I called customer service. After waiting online for them for 12 minutes, I was transferred to the credit department. I waited 18 minutes for someone to answer. I was told that they had checked my credit score and that I was no longer eligible to use value pay. The purchases I have made to ShopNBC have all been paid in full before. It should not be any of their business what my credit history is as long as I have a valid credit card at the time of the purchase. I think it is an invasion of privacy to do a credit check on something I want to purchase.

    They don't do this at the grocery store or any other place that I know of. I buy many many things on easy pay through QVC and HSN and I have never had a problem. I will continue to give them my money and forget about ShopNBC. Is it legal to have someone check your credit score for a purchase? I could understand if I was using their brand of credit card but I am using other credit and debit cards. Just beware that they are checking your credit history and when you go to make a car or house purchase, it will show as someone looking into your credit and could prevent you from being able to make your purchase. I think it is crazy and should not be allowed.

    I literally spent my Thanksgiving weekend dealing with issues caused by ShopNBC. I even found the CEO names through much searching online and emailed him. For future reference, it is ***@shopnbc.comm Kevin ***. I am still waiting for a response. I ordered a watch the beginning of the week. When it arrived, it was defective. ShopNBC was of no help. So I called manufacturer (Croton), they were of lesser value. Their advice: Send it back. So, I did. I sent it back "certified mail," I checked the package status on Friday 11/26 and USPS online stated "delivery denied." This item was going back to its own warehouse and they refused it!

    Furious, I called customer service-- a joke. They came up with some lame reason. Again, I stated it was refused by your warehouse. Are you a complete moron for not understanding what I am saying? The ShopNBC person stuck to "the script. I called American Express and they will handle. They viewed it the same way I viewed it, mail fraud.

    Not yet done with them, I had ordered a different watch and wanted to check status. I placed on my debit card (big mistake) and requested the 5 easy pay option. I looked at the order online and noticed it stated 5 easy pays. Guess what? When I looked at my bank account online, all 5 easy pays were taken individually on the same day, which was 11/26. Again, back on phone with ShopNBC. Again, some lame reason. I called my bank. They are reversing all 5 payments and stated if they ship watch and try to charge me, they will reverse any charge. They consider it to be a matter of credit card fraud. Lesson learned. Do not deal with these people.

    ShopNBC.com accepted $ for a watch which it never delivered. "Customer service" suggests I either wait longer (although we are already past the promised delivery time) or send them more money, i.e. buy the watch again.

    The "customer service" department does not staff a supervisor who can take 'lost item' reports during their stated business hours. The procedure for filing a lost item claim is overly complex and lengthy, and may or may not result in funds being credited for a replacement watch (buying another watch from them being their idea of a solution to my "you didn't deliver what I paid for" problem, as noted). They don't even pretend to care that they are violating the implied contract established when they accepted the item's price for supposed delivery of the item within the stated delivery period.

    Instead, ShopNBC.com seems to feel it should be just fine that they keep customer's money without delivering goods, and that dissatisfied customers can choose to either wait longer or pay more.

    My ShopNBC credit card had a bad security code so I couldn't order their Mitsubishi 65" HDTV online. Several phone calls and days later, I was able to place my order for the TV by phone. The CSR put the billing terms wrong, so I had to wait until my order shipped to get that corrected. I had to plan a four-hour window of time off work to accept my delivery. There was no damage to the containers, but I had the driver open my merchandise regardless to inspect.

    All seemed fine but after several hours of dismantling our existing entertainment center, we hooked up and turned on the new TV only to discover the picture was completely shattered glass. It was obvious this had been drop, kicked off a plane or truck somewhere. The best ShopNBC could do was offer to have it returned (another four hours of my life I'll never get back, I'm sure) and ship another one which will take 15 to 30 days. So, we cancelled our order. Their CSRs and supervisors are extremely well "scripted."

    This is not a customer centric organization. They do not care about your hard-earned dollars. Shop elsewhere, better yet right in your own communities. My husband and I are utterly disappointed and disgusted. We were very much looking forward to this new TV. Hey ShopNBC employees, update your resumes!

    This was my first purchase with ShopNBC, my first experience dealing with this company. I made a large purchase of several stained glass Tiffany-style lamps. My order totaled almost $1,000.00. I received all of my lamps except for a floor lamp. I placed my order on September 3, 2010, it is now September 24, and I continue to need to call the corporate office, customer service, and supervisors.

    The reason for my continuous calls to their 'customer service' is due to the fact that I never received this one item. I was told that their policy is to launch an investigation when such issues as mine arise. This means that while they investigate, you do not get your money refunded. I placed several calls to FedEx in an attempt to find some information, their answer was that they had never received the item from ShopNBC. Of course no one at Shop NBC would accept this information, because they were conducting an investigation. I was told over the course of approximately 3 weeks, that my item was left by a door, and would be over-nighted to me. It did sound ridiculous, and it indeed was, perhaps the customer service reps get bored and enjoy playing with people.

    I went to the corporate office and dealt with a person named Sean, he assured me a week ago that my money would be refunded without a problem, and apologized for my inconvenience. That very afternoon, I received a call from Anifa. She has a strong foreign accent and is difficult to understand, she told me that an investigation had to take place before my money could be refunded. Sean obviously did not give me the correct information. Anifa said she would call me by last Tuesday, no call, haven't heard from her at all. Today I reached Sean once again, and he told me that my money has been refunded to my account and I wasn't charged for delivery. How could I be charged if I never received the item!? In reality, I don't believe Sean, my feeling is that these people will say whatever it takes to get you off the phone. There is no 'customer service'. Anifa actually told me that the reps can't give you much information, or help you that much. Amazing!

    Here's my advice: do not make any purchases through ShopNBC, they are in actuality scam artists, this 'investigation' nonsense is a way to take advantage of whoever does not fight to get their money returned. People are busy and engaging in this day after day is difficult, the people that work for this company do nothing to help the customers, the very reason why they are employed. There are no managers, supervisors, no one to offer you the help you need! I never received the floor lamp that I paid for, and I never received a refund. I will continue to call. As of right now, all I can say is, does anyone really want to go through this? It's not worth my time and trouble, nor anyone else's. ShopNBC should be put out of business, they are a scam!

    I purchased several Suzanne Somers items in July and ShopNBC had a special deal. Instead of paying the full amount at once, they would charge 2 separate months without charging interest by using the Value Pay System and signing up for the ShopNBC credit card. I signed up for both. When I received the first statement, they added a $1.99 monthly maintenance fee so I wrote the credit card company a letter stating that after my full payment was received, I wanted the account closed. I already have many credit cards that don't charge monthly maintenance fees and I will only use them. I then paid the full amount which included the Value Pay amounts for both the first and second months.

    Last week, I started receiving telephone calls from ShopNBC stating they could not bill the second month of Value Pays because the credit card company had closed my account. How could they close an account with a credit balance? I told them I had already paid the full amount and they needed to contact their credit card company to collect it. They refused to communicate with them and insisted I will do it, because they are separate entities. I then wrote a second letter documenting the sales transactions, the fact it had been paid in full, requesting that they let ShopNBC collect the full amount I paid. ShopNBC has been calling me almost every hour of every day now for a week. I refuse to speak to a company that harasses a customer for resolution when all they have to do is communicate with their credit card company. The credit card says ShopNBC and the phone number I was given for the credit card company is the same number used by ShopNBC.

    I even contacted the ShopNBC Customer Service department by email and they refuse to communicate with their own credit or billing department. The facts are that the credit card company has received a letter from me and a phone call from me requesting to open the account with the credit balance so that ShopNBC can collect the amount for the second month of Value Pays. If only the Customer Service Department, Billing/Credit Department and their own Credit Card Department would communicate with each other, I wouldn't have to be harassed for a payment that I already made. I am done with ShopNBC and I will spread the word about how they treat customers! I am completely stressed out from phone harassment almost every hour of every day for the past week.

    I have called this ShopNBC customer service on several occasions and have been insulted and treated very poorly. They like to hide their shady practices until you have a problem. Here's a list of things they do that I had to learn the hard way.

    Fact: The “30-day Return Policy" starts as soon as the item ships so this is not really 30 days, is it? Fact: If you return something for any other reason besides damaged/defective, they make you ship it back yourself and deduct your original shipping off your return amount.

    Fact: If you return due to damage/defective, they still make you ship it back yourself no matter how heavy it is, then have you send a copy of your receipt to them to get a reimbursement, but here's the catch, for no more than the original shipping amount. i.e. if the original shipping was $4.99, and you pay $15 to send it back, you still only get reimbursed $4.99, penalizing the customer for receiving a defective or damaged item. Fact: If you purchase a vendor Item (item # starts with a U- or V- W-) it's a much bigger hassle to return because it's not shipped from their warehouse, it's drop shipped from a vendor, and many times the vendor doesn't accept it back. Fact: If you purchase an "auto delivery" item and send it back, this does not cancel future shipments, and the representatives do not tell you this.

    Fact: They're "add and save" shipping promo only applies if additional items are purchased on the same order at the same time, and again, they do not tell you this. Fact: They're the biggest watch seller, Invicta has the most horrible customer service on earth, they keep you on hold for hours, make you pay approximately $40 to send a watch back for repair with their fake 5-year warranty, and they say it will take 6-8 weeks. Mine took 14 and once I finally got a hold of a nasty representative with them, they told me this is a normal timeframe. Fact: When you send in something for an exchange, they always process it as a return.

    Fact: When you ask for a supervisor, the nasty representatives say it's not an issue for a supervisor, patronizing the customer, after demanding one, they put you on hold for 5 minutes, come back and explain again why they can't get you to a supervisor. After demanding a 2nd time, they come back after another hold and explain again that a supervisor is not available. They don't want to talk to customers and will do anything to get you off the phone and forget about your complaint. Bottom Line: any retailer is better than ShopNBC. You are better off going anywhere else, do not allow this company to take your money and insult you in the process. The American consumer is smarter than they expect and we deserve better than they are willing to offer! Loss of money, loss of time, loss of sanity due to shopping with ShopNBC.

    I purchased an Astar 32" LCD HDTV in April 2007. The company is now out of business. Conveniently, for ShopNBC, the first in a series of repair issues surfaced after their 30-day return policy. I had purchased an extended warranty when I bought the TV, so I thought I was safe. The TV was "repaired" three times in the last three years. Each time I called to request repair, I was told there was no paperwork on my purchase. I complied with a request to fax all the information I had. I did this three times; once, I was given the wrong fax number and spent more than three hours trying to get the correct number. Then, I was told I'd be contacted in two days.

    I was fed up so I called ShopNBC who basically told me, "Too bad, you're stuck because we only sell the TV, we don't repair them." In other words, ShopNBC is off the hook for liability; the repair company has or doesn't keep previous repair paperwork, and once the item is out of warranty, too bad. ShopNBC should honor the original agreement and, when it sells a lemon, it should compensate the buyer.

    A TV is supposed to last more than three years. However, this TV was defective from the very beginning--just not within the 30-day limit ShopNBC imposes on its customers. After chatting with the ShopNBC floor supervisor, who basically listened to my complaints but offered nothing more than the original service rep who kept repeating the 30-day policy, I informed ShopNBC that I would never purchase another item from them, and I would tell everyone I knew of my experience with the company and their insensitivity to their customers. I leave this complaint as a warning to others who might consider a purchase through ShopNBC--please save yourself hours of aggravation--do not buy from ShopNBC.

    The next step required was to fax a copy of the shipping receipt to ShopNBC. The e-mail also stated the following: "that only up to $13 will be reimbursed for return shipping; I have to allow up to 15 business days from the date I sent my package back to ShopNBC for my return to be processed. Once processed, the return credit will be issued back to my original method of payment, and I will be sent an email confirming the refund amount and date issued."

    And just today, 4/19/2010, I received a Claim Investigation Request Form that I must complete, have notarized which will cost me more money, and mail back to them with a copy of my original receipt. Then they will investigate; upon completion, if it is a satisfactory outcome, I will receive my money! As of this date, I have received no money from them. I have only paid out to them and other services in an attempt to get my money. They should have had quality control in place before that package was sent out. Why do I, as the customer, have to be the one who has to waste more time and money to get my original money refunded? And they apologize for any inconvenience! I understand errors happen; however, this has been terrible customer service. Payment was immediately taken from my account, and I'm still waiting for my refund. I am out the item, the cost of the item, protection plan, shipping to my home, shipping to ShopNBC, notary services, fax service, and time. I am angry! Let me say, this was my first and last time ordering from ShopNBC.

    Note that the telephone reps were nice; I did request that today's rep, Jackie, forward my complaint to management, and I expressed that I hope my phone call was recorded!

    Received a glass panel that arrived poorly packaged and the glass was shattered. The shards of glass were so dangerous. I couldn't repack and send back. So I'm out the $30. My complaint is, I wrote a poor review on their website about the product and they have never posted it. It makes you wonder if they only post good reviews, fooling consumers into buying products they shouldn't waste their money on, or at least know the risk.

I immediately called Shop NBC and was told they would send me a Claim Form via my email. Well, I never received the form and to date still do not have my money or my item.

    I purchased a 50 inch DLP TV in Oct 2008 with an addition 2yr ext warranty from ShopNBC TV. During the advertisement, it was stated that the warranty would cover everything after the 1 yr manufacturer warranty expired, but on my very first service call today, I was told by Norman E. serviceman that the ShopNBC warranty dept said that part was not covered. ShopNBC lied when they sold the ext warranty over the TV. The host did not state certain parts such as the lamp light was not covered. A consumer can only take their word of the warranty when purchasing items by TV.

    I had to pay $150.00 to get my TV repaired after I have already given ShopNBC a $169.00 extra for an ext. warranty. What a lie and false advertisement this company is getting away with on the American public. I also spoke with Samsung about their product and all they could say was that they sale ext. warranty that the consumer can purchase and lamp last according to the usage of the TV. Please tell me if you purchase a TV for over $1,300, should you be able to watch it for more than 2.5 years?

ShopNBC confirmed responsibility for UPS charges to pick up the product. Four weeks later, I am still waiting for UPS to pick up the package from my house. Each of the four weeks I contacted a ShopNBC representative who apologized for the previous representative.

    Also, the representative confirmed no records in their system regarding my request for return merchandise.

    I contacted Shop NBC today and was informed UPS made an attempt today to pick up the merchandise. After four weeks? This is not effective business operations. I had no knowledge of UPS attempting to pick up the merchandise today. Also, I cannot be reimbursed until ShopNBC receives the merchandise.

    According to ShopNBC, it is too bad, I got ill and was in the hospital over 100 days and missed a $30.00 payment on a mattress pad. The bill for $70.00 was sent to a collection agency, after being discharged, I found out about it and paid the bill, and made many more purchases using flex payments. Suddenly 6 months later, they said I could not use flex pay anymore and despite not missing any payments, they closed my buying privileges. So I had to pay for anything up front in cash, which I did. Now, about 4 months after that, my husband tried to log into his acct to no avail. We kept getting the runaround for 3 days, saying it was our computer.

    On day 3 some lady told me they had removed his email address and blocked it because I had missed a payment a year ago, even though they had record that I paid the bill. They told me to tell him to get a new email address. Why should we get a new email address and why should he be blocked for shopping, he has never missed a payment? They lie to their customers and act as judge, jury, and hangman. He did nothing and does not want to get a new email address to please them, this sounds like dictatorship.

    I have recently did research on ShopNBC and to my horror found out a lot of bad stuff, about their credit dept and customer service center. I'm still making a coupe of flex pays on a few items, but can't even log on to see how much I still owe. This Nazi-like company does not care about the consumer, repeat customers, or their reputation. Buyers beware and read up on some of ShopNBC's policies, like their return or refund policy. They make you get documents legalized by a notary and won't even refund if you never got the item. These people need some lawyers sicked on them, and a class action suit initiated ASAP, plus you can find the same items for less elsewhere. Look before you leap.

    ShopNBC keeps advertising Waterford that is not made in Ireland as made in Ireland. Several of their items are made in Slovenia. Most recently, I received item K34764 - Waterford Crystal Clara 7" Vase. It is still advertised on their website as made in Ireland, but it is not. It is made in Slovenia and the workmanship was lousy. The crystal was blurry in spots and mine had two small, but visible air bubbles in the glass. The misrepresentation of several products as "Made in Ireland" remains on their web site.

    This is the second order that I got and was misled this way. There is almost no collectible or heirloom value in Waterford Crystal that is not Made in Ireland. Waterford is the name of an Irish town for goodness sake. Anyhow, you can buy Slovenian crystal, very cheaply just about anywhere these days. So paying more than $50 for a vase or bowl made in Slovenia (no matter what the label) has no intrinsic value over the long term. It's a bad investment. So far, I have a $156 pair of candle sticks that have a real value of about $50 bucks. Waited too long to send those back, so I'm stuck with them. I shipped other Waterford items back so I'm out $16 bucks for shipping.

    On 1-15-10, I placed an order with ShopNBC for 3 items totaling over 350$. After waiting for almost 3 weeks, I checked the order status and found that while ShopNBC considered the order "closed", UPS had never received any of the items for delivery. I then called ShopNBC and was told that the matter would be checked out, and that if the items had never left the possession of ShopNBC, my credit card would be immediately refunded. I was a little irritated that all 3 items in question were now sold out, but as that was not the fault of any individual I could specify, I let it go.

    7 days later, the status of my order had not changed, and I called ShopNBC CS dept back only to be told that I was supposed to fill out "claim forms". After which, my "claim would be submitted for consideration" of a refund! I was further told that it would take 7-10 days to e-mail me the form and another 7-10 days for them to process the "claim". How is it that an order that never left their warehouse, and was never received by UPS for delivery must now be "claimed" by me as lost?

    Why am I being charged over $350 plus interest for what will take a minimum of 2 billing cycles to fix (and I’m not holding my breath on that timeframe)? ShopNBC acknowledges that these items never left their possession, but they insist that they must follow the aforementioned "procedures". Furthermore, the supervisor I spoke to, Valerie was rude and condescending. Just remember if you decide to do business with ShopNBC. I am not "special", therefore I believe what happened to me must be at least a somewhat routine occurrence. Hopefully, this situation will be resolved eventually. But knowing how poorly this company handles problems, I will not take a chance with them again.

But a week before I have to return the watch within the 30-day policy (never worn), I found the exact same watch on worldofwatches.com for $1,124 with free shipping.

    So I called ShopNBC this morning and asked them to price match. They refused even with very clear proof that they were being undersold. Back goes the watch to ShopNBC, and I will never purchase anything ever again from ShopNBC. Plus. I'll be sure to blog, Facebook and warn consumers by spreading the word about their lack of price match policy. Everyone in America today (even now Walmart, for pete's sake) will at least price match for 30 days. Except ShopNBC.

That was on December 17, 2009. I was told and could also see that the order had been marked cancelled for all 5 items, as if they had never been sent out from the warehouse and that they would investigate why and get back to me in 7 to 10 days.

    I waited...nothing. On the December 27, 2009, I called again and spoke to Jake who said he had to put in an inquiry, because nothing had been processed and would call me back in 5 to7 days. I waited...nothing. I called again on January 11, 2010 and spoke to Shelly who said she would send an e-mail inquiry and that would take 3 to 5 days for a response. I waited...nothing.

    I called again on January 14, 2010 and got Christie who said she would send an e-mail inquiry.

    On December 25, 2009, I ordered a Mitsubishi television 60-inch and a TV stand at shop NBC with order number ** for $1,499 with 5 value pay of $299.80 a month with $100 rebate. On the order status, it was shipped on December 29, delivery date of 1/4/10. I was told that somebody will be calling me 3 days prior to delivery. Nobody called. I was excited with the TV so I called Shop NBC on 12/29/09 to ask about the delivery and when to expect the TV. A representative from Shop NBC told me YRC representative is supposed to call me. If I don't receive any call until December 31/09, I should give them a call, and that's exactly what I did. I called customer service of Shop NBC. I was told that it's still in transit at the time so they want me to contact YRC at 1-800-610-6500 and ask for Katy for my delivery day and time.

    On 1/04/10, I called Katy for date and time of delivery. She scheduled me for 1/5/10 between 10:00 am - 2:00pm and also, she gave their number in Benicia, CA, 707-745-3781. I cancelled my other appointments to be home for the delivery. I waited and waited! Nobody showed up until finally, I can't wait any longer because it was 2:30 pm already, I called YRC in Benicia, CA at 707-745-3781 and talked to Anthony. I gave him the tracking number of my TV which is **. He was shocked and told me they don't have it in their terminal and that it was in Santa Rosa, CA. Anthony told me that he will get in touch with Santa Rosa Terminal and he will call me back as soon as he finds out what happened.

    I waited for a while, no call from YRC Benicia Terminal. I could not sit around; I had to call Anthony back. He told me that Santa Rosa terminal sent it to Tracy terminal that Anthony will go there that night of 1/5/10 to pick up our shipment so he can get it to us on 1/6/10 and that he will call me first thing in the morning between 7:00 am - 8:00 am.

    Again, no call from Anthony, so I had to call him again myself. Shockingly, he told me that they could not find our shipment. that they will file a claim for a lost shipment. I tried to be understanding with this matter, and he explained that this happens and sometimes, it will just show up after a few days. I actually called Anthony from YRC numerous times on 1/5/10. He apologized about what happened with our TV and he has people searching for our shipment and that if they find it, he will call me right away. Yesterday, 1/6/10, I called Anthony again for updates. Still, nothing! I am very frustrated and stressed with the whole situation, I had to quit for the day.

    Today, 1/7/10, I called YRC again. I was told by Labella, I think that’s her name, that they have searched both terminals and they found nothing. The lady advised me to call Shop NBC again to ask for replacement. She said things like this happen. Shop NBC normally files a claim with YRC, and they should be able to replace our Item. So, I called Shop NBC customer service at 877-283-9286 and explained to them what happened. The representative put me on hold so she can talk to a specialist. I was expecting that she will be able to help me with my situation. Back on line, she told me that they have to wait for 15 days for the claim to be filed. I asked her for consideration and asked her, how come we have to suffer in this situation when it wasn't our fault, and if we can get this resolved sooner. She had to put me on hold again so she can talk to the specialist one more time. While I was waiting, I'm thinking to myself, finally, I think they'll be able to help me. When she got back to me on the line, these are her exact words, "The specialist said it will take 15 to 30 days for the claim to process." I said, "What?" How come it ended up being worse than the first decision? Rather than helping me to solve the problem sooner, it made it worse. I could not believe it. Then she asked me while the claim is being processed if I just want her to place another order. While talking, she checked their system and said, “Oh, it's out of stock,” and she cannot place an order for it. Frustrated and much stressed again, I had to say thank you and bye.

    A few minutes later, I went online because I did not believe what she said that it's out of stock. I went online and went to the ordering process. Just what I was expecting, “Item Available”. Such a liar! On top of that, I got home at around 8:20 pm. Guess what's on Shop NBC, advertising the 60-inch Mitsubishi 1080P DLP HDTV. So how can she say that it's out of stock! Please help me. Shop NBC is not doing anything about this matter. They were even offering me $20 rebate for my next purchase. I told them I am not asking for anything! All I want is the television and the TV stand that I ordered. The problem is supposed to be between Shop NBC and YRC Shipping. I should get my items. Why do I have to suffer as a consumer?

Each customer service rep told me they would stop the automated delivery, but the product kept coming, and I kept returning it. Finally, I received an email that I ordered the product on December 26th (I didn't), and it was going to be shipped. I immediately called Shop NBC, and explained everything.

    The first rep was a male, and he told me they had many "glitches" in their ordering system, and the mistake was theirs, but he would stop the shipment. When I got another email, I called again, in between, I sent emails. The emails from Shop NBC were rude, and no help to me. The next rep was rude on the phone, and I then asked to speak to a manager or supervisor, so I could get a prepaid mailing label, to send the shipment back. They said no, I would have to pay for the shipment back myself.

    I made several requests, both by email and phone, to have a supervisor call me. All of my requests were ignored. This company needs to be investigated. They are out of hand. Here I am, stuck with the product I have been trying to stop the shipment of for months. In addition, the product I returned was not credited to my Shop NBC account. How can they be so deceitful and rude? They ignore customer's requests, and just do what they want. Each shipment is approximately $73.00. It is not cheap. They owe me approximately $373.00 in uncredited returns, and how can I get my refund? By the way, the product is worthless, and a hoax. Please do not shop with this company. They are not trustworthy. The consequences are loss of money, unable to get any customer respect or satisfaction, and I was also unable to stop these product shipments.

So on 12/31/09 a FedEx guy shows up at my door and I'm wondering why a package was here and it was from ShopNBC. I opened it and it was the watch I sent back and I was shocked.

Go to ShopNBC and go through the reviews of this watch. So I am a little unhappy at this because now I paid approximately $790 + $18.90 shipping and I cannot afford to throw $18.90 to ship back only to get it returned to me. When you get a new watch that you're excited about, you want to wear it and it has a tiny scratch from wearing it.

I then asked to speak to her supervisor at which time she told me that this is not a supervisor's matter. What nerve! I insisted on speaking with her supervisor and a Kendra got on the phone. She was immeidately nasty and informed me that the "invoice date" (which is different from the order date) was September 16th and therefore it did ship 2nd day air. I informed her that I was holding the invoice in my hand and the "invoice date" she was referring to was September 13th. I don't think she even heard me because she kept on talking over me. She insisted over and over again that the invoice date was September 16th - do they really think someone is that stupid? I'm holding the invoice in my hand! It should have been here on the 15th as was stated - I paid $21.99 for Express Shipping when there was nothing Express about it. Extremely disappointed and would never order from them again.

    I purchased a 50" RCA LCD model #M50WH185 from ShopNBC with a 2-year extended warranty, which starts after the one year manufacturer warranty expires. The TV is still under warranty, but ShopNBC extended warranty does not cover bulbs. I was watching TV when I heard a large popping noise and my TV went black. The sound is there, but no picture. The TV was purchased 2 years ago. The bulb costs $216.00, not including the $110.00 service charge. Question: What good is an extended warranty when it does not cover certain parts?

    I purchased a camcorder from ShopNBC on television. It was a Vado which is made in Eden Prairie, MN. I have been tacking and it was refused twice. NBC told me to contact the maker because it needed repair, and when I called them, they hung up on me. I had the products for a few months and it was costly with the one-year protection plan. The camcorder would not hold the charge and I sent it back to Eden Prairie, MN. Internet Explorer won't let me submit my claim.

    I called and ordered a TV. Two hours later, I changed my mind so I called back and cancelled the order. I was told that I cannot cancel as the order already went through. But when the warehouse calls for delivery, I can cancel. The warehouse did call and I told her that I had cancelled. She said, "That's okay." Now N.B.C. said that it was shipped, and I had refused delivery. No one came to this door. I am being billed $119.00 for delivery. There is no invoice and no tracking number.

    Because of miscommunication between two different branches of Shop NBC, my husband did not know he still owned $13. He was told MORE THAN ONCE he had no balance. We did eventually pay the balance, but my complaint is the harassment of phone calls made my ROCHELLE, DERICK, and others. Up to four messages a day on my answering machine, constant threats of collection. For $13. I would not want to have their miserable jobs at an obvious miserable organization. I understand SHOP NBC must be losing money these days, but you harass the customer that owes $13. Horrible people that work here, horrible company. I am warning you mo mattered how tempted you are late at night while surfing the channels to not order from these guys. They are unprofessional, unorganized, and down right mean. STAY AWAY!

    I purchased a 57" Mitsubishi Tv in Nov 2007 from Shop NBC and purchased extended sevice warranty to cover for 2 more years that would cover "everything". Picture tube went out at 1 year and 4 months but come to find out that is not covered under warranty - it turns out that the tube is a general wear item and is expected to burn out every year or so and that any consumer should be able to just pull the back off the tv and replace it. If this is the case dont buy from ShopNBC, dont buy Mitsubishi, and especially dont buy the $300 2 year warranty that doesnt cover the one thing that will probably go out.

    THIS IS A COPY OF THE LETTER I WROTE TO SHOP NBC IN REGARDS TO MY INCIDENT WITH THEM:
    To whom it may concern, My name is Brian Parr, customer I.D # 11159715, and I am writing this letter to express my dissatisfaction with your company in regards to my recent order # 60604953 placed on May 2, 2009 via telephone for an Invicta watch, sport Swiss quartz priced at $88.44. The details of my horrible experience in dealing with your company are as follows: On May 2, 2009 at approximately 1:00 AM, I was watching shop NBC at which time the Invicta watch described above was portrayed on the screen for approximately 10-15 minutes. The watch on display had a face black in color and was the only one shown on the screen during the presentation. During the broadcast, at no time was it mentioned that this same watch was available with a face white in color. In addition, there was only one item number at the bottom of the screen for this item which was J-177091. I decided to purchase the item and did so via telephone using number 800-474-6762. At no time during placing the order was I asked if I would like it in the black or white face. At this time, this was irrelevant because I was under the impression that the item I was ordering was the black face watch as it was the only one mentioned and displayed during the broadcast and only 1 item number existed with no indication of any other options. However, on May 2, 2009 at approximately 10:00 AM I learned that I was deceived by your company and that no persons cared enough or were competent enough to correct my order. The details of that statement are as follows: On May 2, 2009 at 10 AM, I visited the shopnbc.com website for the purpose of viewing the watch I just purchased on the previous evening. I was excited and wanted to see it again. I typed in the item number J-1770901 and was shocked when what appeared to be a different watch appeared on the screen. I then noticed it was in fact the same watch, but with a face white in color. I did not like it at all. I was confused and began to scroll through the other watches on the screen. I was more shocked when the watch I ordered appeared on the screen but with a different item number, J-177092. I immediately called the 800-474-6762 number back and was hoping to hear that the watch I ordered was the black face one. I was upset when I was told I had in fact ordered the white face watch. My frustration and anger grew when I asked the service woman to switch the item number from J-177091 (white) to J-177092 (black) and she told me she couldn’t do that. She stated it was too late in the order to make a change. I explained to her that the order was placed in the middle of the night, and only 9 hours earlier. I was once again told that there was nothing she could do. I would have taken credit for the mistake if it were the wrong number I had given, however, I explained that the T.V broadcast never showed a white face watch nor made mention of one and that only 1 item number existed on the screen and that the service woman never asked if I wanted it in white or black. This is clearly a huge mistake on the part of shop NBC which was now my problem according to the service woman! She told me to call customer relations if I were looking to pursue the matter. On May 2, 2009 at 10:45 AM, I called customer relations at 800-676-5523 and spoke with “Tina”. I once again explained the situation to Tina who answered me with the same statement as the previous shop NBC employee, being “there is nothing we can do for you”. Tina also told me that it is too late in the process to change the order. My blood was boiling at this point because we all know that between 1 AM and 10:45 AM on the same date, no persons have put that package on a truck for delivery yet! But worst of all, I am being forced to receive an item which I did not order! I was shown a black face watch and am now being sent a white face watch! I feel deceived by your company and now very angry at the way I was treated. I have never heard of an order which couldn’t be cancelled or switched for the correct item within a reasonable amount of time, especially when the item shown and spoken about is not what was sold to me! Tina stated that I could “wait for Fed-X to come and refuse the package”, as if I have nothing else to do during the work week but wait for the truck to turn the package away! I was also told that I could “purchase the black one right now also and that when the white one arrives, I can send it back”. Wow, that’s a really bright idea! I have so much money lying around that I could just charge another watch to my credit card!! I guess my time isn’t important either in that I am expected to take the package back to a Fed-X location and pay shipping charges on top of it all to send it back!! As you can see by my record, I am a new customer at shop NBC and have already purchased two (2) watches in a 7 day period for a total of $200.00 dollars from your company. I am an avid watch collector and was excited to learn of your company and give you my business which would have continued very frequently and for a long time to come. However, I want to make it very clear that as the result of this incident, I will no longer purchase any items from your company now or in the future! I went from being excited to very angry in only a week’s time. How can I ever trust to purchase another item when that shown to me on T.V does not correspond with the item number which I would be receiving?? If the situation was resolved easily with customer service switching my item number or any other action which wouldn’t have involved inconveniencing me or making me feel helpless or foolish, I would have been happy and continued using your service. After all, mistakes do happen. Though what matters is how we fix the problem and your company doesn’t seem to really care once the order is taken and the credit card is charged. In closing, I took pen to paper and let out my frustrations as you have read. In a weeks time, a white faced Invicta sport Swiss quartz watch will appear at my door step and will remind me of the aggravation I experienced and how I was let down by shop NBC. I will be reminded once again in a month’s time when I write the check due to the credit card company to pay for this item which I never wanted! You see, paying for the item and taking it as a lesson learned than dragging this out any longer by finding time to deliver the return package to a shipping location for return and still paying shipping charges is the lesser of the two evils for a hard working, busy individual. Next time I decide to treat myself for my hard work, I will resort to the good old fashion way of shopping and visit a store but for any brand other than Invicta! Brian Parr

    On April 18,2009, I placed an order for an Invicta watch that was to be a birthday gift. I received an e-mail stating that the watch would be delivered by April 28, 2009. When the watch did not arrive, I checked the status of the order on line as recomended by the e-mail I received informing me of the expected arrival date of my order. When I checked my order it had been cancelled. I contacted customer service by phone and was told that the order was cancelled because someone at my address had caused ShopNBC a loss. It was not me. The customer service supervisor stated that even though I was not the person that caused the loss, ShopNBC had the right to cancel the order because of my address and for no other reason. Initially the money was taken out of my bank account and I had received the e-mail stating that the order would arrive. At no time was I notified that the order was cancelled, nor was I contacted to see who I was or how long I had been at this address.
    I had ordered two necklaces previously and received those with no problem other than the fact that one of the necklaces came with an extender that I paid for but never received. At that time I had contacted customer service multiple times over a year with no response, except an automatically generated e-mail that stated that my e-mail was being reviewed. I also spoke to a customer service representative who told me the extender was being sent, yet it never arrived.

    This is the email that I sent to ShopNBC Customer Service explaining EVERYTHING! What a mess they are!
    To whom it may concern: I purchased an Invicta watch from ShopNBC in late September of 2008 as an engagement present for my fiance. I purchased the watch from ShopNBC because I assumed that given the name of the company, there would be some sort of integrity to how the company conducted their business and with which vendors they conducted the business with. Had I checked the BBB website before making the purchase, I would have never purchased the product. The watch that I purchased had not lasted 2 months before the band just happened to break and the watch fell to the ground and broke. ShopNBC was not helpful in the least bit about resolving this issue. They told me to take it up with Invicta. I spoke with Invicta, who made me send the watch back via UPS (on my dime) and include a check to Invicta to send the watch back to me when it's repaired, which is in itself quite ridiculous. Invicta has had the watch since January. I've been told that they cannot fix it becuase they don't have the parts. They cannot replace it because they don't have any more in stock, because they sell all of their watches to ShopNBC. They also offered to replace the brand new watch that I purchased from ShopNBC with "refurbished" watches. In the event that I do want an update on my case, I have to hold for 45 minutes at a time approximately 3 times because my call keeps getting dropped. When I am told, that I'll get a call back, no one ever calls. And for the week of April 13th, the entire company closed. What kind of legitimate company is that? So regardless of the fact that I bought the watch from ShopNBC, I cannot even get a replacement from ShopNBC! They told me that I can chose another watch, but none of the watches match up in price, so I've had to have my fiance scurry your website for watches, in order to be told EVERY SINGLE TIME, that the watch he wants, Invicta cannot get us because your company bought the stock. Not to mention, that we have to "settle" on an item that he doesn't want because the item he did want was defective and broke. I am literraly at my wits end with both of your companys. If I do not receive a reply in regards to how we are going to fix this situation, I will file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, the attorney general and contact all sorts of local and national news media, so that everyone in America can be aware of how ShopNBC is being run and with whom they conduct business with. At this state in our economy, consumers should not have to fight for what they have rightfully paid good, hard earned money for. And, it is beyond me, how company's like ShopNBC and Invicta Watch Group can take peoples money without backing up their "good name". The lack of regard for the consumer in this situation has turned the bright and shiny memory of our engagement and the present I purchased to remember that "once in a lifetime" moment in our lives into a never ending nightmare! At this point, all I would like is a refund of my money. I've listed below the BBB links for ShopNBC's website along with the BBB link for Invicta Watch Group. I've also listed the order number with ShopNBC of the watch that I purchased. I sincerely hope that you will review the links below and not take this matter lightly. http://www.bbb.org/minnesota/report/13000935#ratingdetails

    I took a week to do research about shopNBC (shopNothingButCrooks) for a computer. Spoke to customer service (3xs) prior to purchase, specifically re: complaint that shopNBC charges your card THEN does credit check. 1 ShopNBC CSR (Woman) said its not a credit check per se, we only check to see if you have enough $ in your bank acct. and you wont be denied as long as there is $ in the acct. WRONG, they took a payment via Visa 1st, then cancelled my order later (via an email you cant reply to stating "we are unable to process your order." call 800-852-5711 [recording only, you cant leave a message]). This was after two reps (1 male and 1 female) stated the computer is being shipped on April 30th. Huh? Now my $ is held up until the auth is released? The Credit dept. stated they wont release the auth unless my bank contacts ShopNBC...Huh?Poor Business. Is there a benefit in charging/keeping customers$? Can they actually report they have more customers then they do to vendors? or does it initially run their on screen totals up for an item so people run to the phones to buy it? Is there a secret accual of interest multiplied by #of cust.? Either way, shopNothingButCrooks (shopNBC) is a Shady business. They could have disclosed the details of their ValuePay policies instead of playing word and other games (...not telling customers about the credit check) when I asked them via phone and email before I became a dissatisfied non-customer. Sad. Im better off, I can purchase the computer in total but, what if I had purchased a shady product from a shady company? Lesson Learned: 1 complaint is enough to STAY AWAY!

    Do not use ShopNBC under any circumstances. I purchased a small camera from them, which worked for less than 2 minutes. When the bill for $105 came in, I paid $70 on it hoping to rectify the situation as we went along. Meanwhile, I went ahead and purchased a $1,400 TV from them. The TV was lost in transit. I called them to let them know. I also told them to cancel the order. I then purchased another TV locally. I continued to get bills for varying amounts and no one there could tell me what bill was for what. Every time I called, it was a different person and nothing was getting done on the account. I couldn't tell what amount was for what and neither could they. They kept telling me not to pay on the account as they would take care of it. Meanwhile, the account was turned over to the credit bureau and my credit is ruined for $35 - for the camera that did not work. They refused to work with me to correct the situation.

    On Thursday, 4/9/09 at approximately 6:00 PM, as I was watching ShopNBC I saw an ad for an HP computer. I was interested in this item as it allowed 6 EasyPays to be taken from my credit card each month. I watched the show for about 30 minutes and decided to order the computer. I called and placed my order. Shortly after placing my order, I decided to purchase a second HP computer for my son's birthday, so I called a second time, held for a while, and then placed my order. Both orders were placed with a live customer service representative. I received a confirmation email as well.

    Today, I noticed the money for both computers ($200) had been placed on hold from my checking account. This afternoon, I received an email from ShopNBC that they would not be processing my order because they ran a credit check and decided not to send the merchandise based on the credit check. I called the number in the email and spoke with someone in the credit department. I explained that during the approximate hour I watched their programming, there was never a mention of a credit check and that when I called twice to place both orders, there was also no mention of a credit check.

    I know my credit. I would not have placed the orders if I knew it was subject to credit approval. My complaint is that I was not told there would be a credit check; therefore, I did not authorize one. I'm offended that they would just check credit without my authority. I never provided my social security number or my date of birth. I expressed my anger that this was done with the CSR who said she would advise a manager. I'm sure it will go no further than her. In checking online, I see this is common practice with ShopNBC. Although not a huge deal, I'm upset that they can just check credit without any type of authorization from a customer.
