I bought a ***** belt last year and the belt head broke off in less than a year. I contacted the warranty department and they sent me a voucher of $50 as a refund. I used the voucher to buy a jeans on their website but the new jeans was too tight when I received it. I contacted their customer service and was told I cannot return it for refund and can only exchange for a different size. I told them I want to exchange for a different style as it is too tight but was denied. It is very unfair for the company to put so many restrictions for return/exchange/voucher. Their product quality is poor and I deserve to get my money back instead of a voucher with lots of strings attached. I would like ***** to send me a store credit of $50.Business Response

Your staff was kind enough to resolve an issue, generating a voucher code in the maount of $100. Now that I have gone to the site, the voucher code is not being recognized by your system. **************** was unable to place the order itself. There was also a belated $10 gift, which I tried to apply with ****************, prior to being told the system would not process the order, and that I needed to place it myself on the portal. Where possible, please place this order, with the following conditions:Remove the shirt Replace it with an additional pair of any of the jeans Add the birthday $10 gift voucher.Please see the attached screenshot showing that the voucher code provided was rejected. This may lend itself to addtional questions. Please feel free to call me after 3:00 PM EST, as this will reduce rounds of phone tag. In the rare event of reaching my voicemail, please provide a direct number with an extension. If none is available, then please leave an email address or fax number.Customer Answer

Hello,In an effort to more easily resolve this matter, I have come to the position that converting the Voucher Code into a Gift Card will be the easiest way to resolve this issue, saving a great deal of time and effort for everyone.Can you kindly add this to the Complaint, so that the business can see this?Thank you.Sincerely,**** MartinezBusiness Response

I am rejecting this response because:
Business will not allow for the resolution to take place with a gift card - only a voucher code. This then precludes use of other vouchers and dilutes the true and total of the offer. This does not convey a spirit of resolution.

Hello ShyanThe Response, in this case, reflects dissatisfaction.Tij the BBB portal, remarks and an upload was made.Having two individuals, representing a business, lends itself for it to seem positive before the eyes of the BBB and for less than ethical intentions to take place behind the scenes.The goal still is to resolve and bring forth only the best qualities in the organization. To sum it up, if they can simply provide a gift card, I would adjust my rating to positive and satisfied.Where possible, can you reach out to the business once more to see if they will make things right?Thank you.Sincerely,**** MartinezBusiness Response

Thank you for the follow-up.
We understand the customer's preference for a gift card; however, in accordance with our current warranty policy, voucher codes are the standard method of resolution for approved warranty claims. While voucher codes cannot be combined with other promotional offers, they are still valid for any eligible merchandise on ********.We appreciate the feedback regarding flexibility and will share it with the appropriate teams. That said, our offer of a voucher remains in line with our policy and is the resolution we are able to extend at this time.
Thank you,

I am rejecting this response because:I cant even use the voucher code without adding a credit card to the transaction, even if the amount to be paid is $0. Your book of, about not eking able to provide gift cards is draconian and unconscionable when you take into account that a credit card still has to be added. I ask that you records rhebirems, in my Cart, applying the voucher without having to provide w credit card.

Hi Shyan,There is another update, that is important that the merchant knows about, as it is something material for the BBB.After trying to complete the purchase, following the rules set forth by Levis, the order total came out to $0 with the voucher code. However, the system still requires a credit card to process the order. At the moment, I find myself really low on funds and cant afford a hold onto my card.That means that the order will not go through. Naturally, o reached out to their support team, both by phone and email, only to be told that this is how it is and that there is nothing they can do about it.A businesses policies and practices should not be too one-sided and it is clearly a case of it being so.For this reason, I ask that you provide the contact person with this email, which I am sending to you, along with the one which was provided by Levis.Thank you for your assistance in this matter.Sincerely,**** MartinezBusiness Response

Levis sent 2 of 8 items they charged for. Their rep, Saturday, stated he verified it was a warehouse error. He stated he had many calls that day about the same warehouse. and he would email them to advise of all the problems. He sent me a label to return the 2 items I received (they are labeled the same size but have a difference of 1 in in their inseams). he stated he would ship the items made a mistake and did not ship. he said the system does not allow that until 3 days after the expected delivery date. He told me to call back today and they have all the authorization to reship. but instead the lady takes almost 2 hours telling me I have to file claim online which costs me money because I'm legally blind and an aide has to help me. Also she states the managers 'can't come to the phone' cause they are 'busy' and she dosent' know how long that will be. they never sent me the claim process they now allege is necessary. Further, by law they can't require a legally blind person to do something requires eyesight. It's a violation of the ADA. Regardless. how can I file a claim if I don't have the info/? they refuse to email it. they emailed me saying that it is 'possible I will get a call, maybe, because they escalated it. but, I don't think its right, fair, or legal to hold my money and refuse to ship me the items I paid for. now I want a refund. I don't want to donate more of my time to this circus. I don't want to jeans now. I wanted them shipped today as the man promised. he said they would overnight for free because of the warehouse issue. they can listen to the call, he told me it would be a simple call, he already authorized it. he also said the warehouse had received many complaints for similar issues the day I spoke to him. They are stealing on purpose I thinkBusiness Response
