      This company fraudulently charged me $204 for a service I did not sign up for. My subscription with them ended long ago and was NOT renewed, yet they randomly charged me over two hundred dollars and are dodging my complaints. They are ignoring repeated attempts to contact them and resolve this matter.

      Ive been registered/billed for monthly boxes. I reached out last year in June 2023 to let them know I never received my September 2022 box (was billed) nor my June 2023 box (was billed). The response I received back was we are looking into - please dont keep contacting us). I sent 2 emails - one notifying about September 2022 and one for June 2023. To date, no response nor Credit received (Im billed $16 per month). I did not received a September 2023 box (was billed) nor did I received a January 2024 box (was billed). I have just cancelled my subscription but I want to be reimbursed my $64. **************** is non existent and would not recommend joining this monthly subscription.

      I have tried to cancel my membership for months, the auto renewal button to cancel it does not work. I have reached out to the company several times and asked them to cancel my membership and they have never responded. I had to cancel my card so they can stop charging me because their website does not allow me to cancel my membership, even though they advertise that I can cancel anytime. I am beyond frustrated. I dont know what to do. I need them to cancel my membership.

      Birchbox stopped sending me boxes over 2 years ago stating they were going out of business or something along those lines. Next thing I know,I got an email in June stating they charged my card and were sending me a box. I went to log into Birchbox because I no longer live where they are supposedly sending my box and it said I didnt have an account and couldnt log in. I emailed customer service numerous times and all they told me was that my box hadnt been sent yet and thanks for being a customer. I continued to email Them and tell them I didnt want their service, they werent even sending it to my address, and I wanted my money back. All emails went ignored.They have now taken over $100 from my checking account, wont let me log in, wont let me cancel, wont respond to me, and will not refund me. I have emailed them at least 40 times now. I consider them to be robbing me. Worst people ever. At a time where everyone is low on cash, they are charging people for a service they didnt want and thought was cancelled, and not even sending the product to them and then ignoring them. Have fun spending my hard earned money thieves.
