I purchased an iPhone from Reebelo and it has a counterfeit battery.Business response
09/24/2024
Hi ****,
We understand that you have concerns regarding the "Important Battery Message" and/or "Unknown Part" warning on your Apple device.
These messages are common in refurbished Apple devices and appear when repair work is done to the device. As you can imagine, refurbished devices may go through repairs (depending on severity) to ensure that the device works as intended. Our vendor's certified technicians use high-quality parts to repair or replace the device when necessary. Only an Apple Genius Bar or an ************************ Provider can replace a component without prompting these messages.
We can see that you have returned the device under the 30 days return policy. Once the device has been delivered to our seller, we will process a refund within 2 business days. We will keep you posted on the status of you returns via the service ticket.Thank you.

I am rejecting this response because: Reebelo sold me a counterfeit product and is now making me jump through hoops to get a refund. They are requiring me to submit serial numbers and photos just to start the process. They know what the serial number is because they sent me this counterfeit phone. They are also refusing to refund my money until after they receive the phone. This would leave me with no phone and no money. Since they sold me a counterfeit phone, they have demonstrated they are untrustworthy.They need to immediately refund all my money and send me a prepaid return label for their counterfeit phone.
Otherwise, I will be forced to have my credit card company issue a charge back for selling a fraudulent item.
Sincerely,
**** *******Business response

We would like to apologize for any inconvenience and I am so sorry to inform that we are unable to process the refund for your device until it has been returned to our seller.
As per our policy, the original device must be returned and inspected before we can issue a refund. This allows us to verify the condition of the device and ensure it meets the criteria for a refund.

I am rejecting this response because:Reebelo fraudulently sold me a counterfeit product. Reebelo has my money and I all I have is a fraudulent item.
I no longer trust Reebelo. I certainly dont trust their promise that if I send in this item they will eventually refund my money.
This is why I left a 1 star review on TrustPilot.
Reebelo needs to refund all my money immediately. Then I will return their counterfeit item and change my TrustPilot review.
If I do not receive a full refund and a return label, I will have my credit card company issue a charge back against Reebelo.
Sincerely,
**** *******Initial Complaint

On January 7, 2024 I purchased a watch from **************************. A few qdays after receipt of the watch, I requested information on how to return the watch. Hence proceeded a series of back-and-forth emails asking me for information photos more photos. Unfortunately, these emails have now been deleted. I never received a return label to return the watch, therefore on January 29, *********************************************************** **************************. I filed with my credit card and was given an adjustment. Believing the matter was resolved I waited for my refund. In August, I noticed on my Credit card statements. That I had been rebilled. I contacted Reebelo And they asked for the tracking number. Unfortunately, it was now six months and the tracking number was gone. I have contacted the post office and have not been able to get any more information. I am sending you a copy of the credit card statement with the re-bill and a copy of the **** receiptBusiness response

On August 18th I returned home and opened the package of a ******* note 20 ultra that I'd purchased as "acceptable" condition for $309, for work from Reebelo. The item was not boxed, or enclosed in protective wrap, just in a plastic sleeve inside a ***** envelope. And the device had a notch like gash in its front side edge of the screen that wouldn't even allow setup of the device, the entire screen was nonresponsive. My wife reminded me of their 30 day money back guarantee and so I sent an email to support for a return for replacement or refund for the device they sent me was in faulty condition. After giving me the runaround for nearly 3 weeks they refused my request. Even after all proof had been provided because they claim I didn't request it fast enough and said they require a 3 day max allowance to do this. When having gone over every word of my agreement and receipt as well as their guarantee all say 30 days and guarantee if a device is recieved in faulty condition or damaged they will replace it or honor a full refund. Neither of which they honored in this instance. Now I've lost 3 weeks of work without a work phone while waiting a resolution with them that obviously isn't coming, now I have to trouble my wife to dispute it with our bank as well to get our money back. I'm going to arbitrate against them due to the complete let down.Business response

Absolute Scam:I am from ****** and purchased a refurbished iPhone for my elderly father in the ** (*****). I received a ***** shipping info somewhat quickly but the item was never delivered. ***** claims it was delivered by dropping a $350 phone off in front of some random building (!!). The building is 100% not my fathers house. No signatures. Cheapest shipping option was ***********, there were endless exchanges with Reebelo support by sending almost 20 emails. Reebelo has no interest in solving the case. Instead, they demand to receive copies of your personal ID/passport via a suspicious private US company. That is in violation of ** GDPR laws and applicable US laws. A copy of a passport is not necessary to realize that a parcel is missing and delivered at the wrong place.I will be reporting the company to my credit card provider and the state attorneys general office.I would like to ask for any help with my ************************** order #****** which never arrived to my father in *******.Business response

My iPhone 12 was sent to Reebelo, and received by them on 7/6/24. I had contacted them via email beginning 7/21, and continued to follow up with them. I was told originally that I would hear back in 2 days, and then I stopped being responded to. I wasnt responded to until I completed two online reviews. I was then told that I would be paid within 3-5 business days, which has passed.Business response

On Aug 19 I sent an iPhone 12 to them to sell to them as a buyback. On Aug 22 after they inspected the iPhone they offered less money for it and I rejected the offer and they were supposed to send it back. They sent me a *** tracking number but to this day the iPhone has never shipped. I have contacted customer service via email multiple times and keep getting an apology but no resolution. For the last 4 days they will not even respond to my emails. So at this point they still have my iPhone and I have lost all the value of the iPhone and no way to get it backBusiness response

My order (Apple iPhone 11 Pro (x1)256GB - Space Grey - Fully Unlocked - Excellent)was placed on August 18th, 2024. I submitted a request for a change of address on my order on August 19th, 2024 and instead, Reebelo canceled my order without my permission. I contacted them, and they only provided the same discount code I used from the canceled order. Since the cancellation on August 19th, 2024, Reebelo informed me that a refund was initiated and the refund would appear on my account in 2-5 business days. I haven't received any refund ever since.Business response
