My son gave me for Christmas 2023 a space heater to help keep my house warm in the winter. The first time I used it, it smoked, overheated and almost started a fire in my house. I contacted ********************* of CE North America in January 2024 about the defective space heater (I have 18 emails to her concerning this). She has put me off with promises of a refund and ghosted me. I know $49 doesn't seem like a lot of money, but as a senior citizen on disability, it's groceries and utilities for me. I would appreciate any help in this-it's also the principle of the matter. Thank you for your time and support.Initial Complaint

On 3/3/2021, I purchased a can opener warranted by CE North America from Bed Bath and Beyond. In September of that year, it stopped working. I contacted the warranty company, via email, and followed all their directions and instructions in order to get a refund or replacement. They sent me a new can opener and, within 30 days, that one stopped working as well. I then asked for a refund and they told me they would be sending me a refund. I contacted them again in ********************************************************** the amount that I paid for the can opener despite me sending in the receipt and the cut cord from the can opener per their instructions. I sent them another email this year and they still have not responded by providing me with a refund.Customer response

I purchased a water cooler (model number FW29919) in September of '22. Early this year the water starting tasting terrible. I contacted CE global for a warranty replacement. I spoke with ********* who asked me to send in the cut cord and a receipt which i did in early February. I checked in the following week to see if it had been processed but ********* couldnt get in touch with the warehouse. I followed up again and he put me in touch with his manager *****. After a week of numerous calls and emails, ***** responded saying oops she hadnt seen my emails. She couldnt confirm if my mail had been received so I asked if a picture of the unit with the cut cord plus the receipt would suffice. She said I should email it in and she would "talk to the product manager about your case". She confirmed receipt of my email and said she would notify as soon as the product manager replied. That was almost 2 weeks ago. I have followed up at many times with numerous emails, phone calls, messages, with zero response. Totally unprofessional and unresponsive.Initial Complaint

I bought an air-conditioner unit in *************** on November 22, 2021. The unit stopped providing cool air in January 2022 and I contacted CE North America, the manufacturer for passible repair or replacement since it was supposed to have 1 year warranty. I spoke with customer representative named *************************** and asked me to send the cord and required information. He followed up with email. I responded by email and told him that I could send them over in a few weeks when I get back to ********. I currently live in Kanoehe, ** but my tenants who use the air-conditioner lives in ****. After I sent him over the cord that I cut from the A/C unit and the required information in February 2022, he did not bother to acknowledge and I have to call him many, many times to follow up by phone and emails. He did confirm receipt of cord and my required information and told me he was going to escalate my case to his supervisor, *********************. ************** sent me an email asking me the same requirements as what ************ asked. I replied to ************** and provided her the information she needed but I told her on the phone that the cord has already been sent and received by CE North America long time ago in Feb. 2022. I tried to follow up with ************** by calling her several times and left a couple of messages but she never returned my calls. At this time, I feel being ignored by this company and I am not sure if they still want to honor the manufacturer's warranty as per the default agreement when I bought this unit. This unit did not even last 2 months! And I have to call and follow up with them for 11 months now and still don't have resolution of my case.Business response

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. Credit goes to **** for forwarding the mail (check) to my new address. I have informed CE North America, LLC. half year ago that I had closed my PO Box mailing address and told them to send to my new address. I corresponded to them by phone and email several times about my new address. See documentation. Seems like this company was not paying attention and still sent the mail to my old address. Fortunately, I received the check.
Sincerely,

I bought an electric cooking pot, model ce23361 in May, ******************** Manhattan. I lightly used it. And it stopped working a week ago, after I heard a bursting noise inside its base.I have lost the receipt of the purchase of that store. But I have the intact package box.I attempt to contact the business named on the manual and addresses to inquire whether I can get a replacement.I sent email a week ago and get no response. I called the customer service number and is redirected to call **********, which hanged up without any answering. I checked its website and it displays a blank screen.So I file this complaint. I believe this product is designed to break down fast.Business response

On 7/21/2020 I purchased an Ice Maker from Bed, ************* for $165.59. It stopped working & I went online to try to fix any possible glitches using ******* videos, etc. with no success. I tried to register my product on the CE North America LLC website with no luck; the site would not allow me to enter my form with all the correct information entered in the proper sections. I have tried to call numerous times and never get a live person to assist. My 2 Year Warranty runs out next month and I still have had no ice maker that works. Please help me out ASAP. Thank you.Business response
