Please help. The company support pets runs a popular social media page and is falsely advertising. I saw the ads on Instagram, TikTok, and ******** to get approved for an *** letter for my pet and this company claims to give you your *** after 48 hours. We paid over $100 for this letter and yet we have received no confirmation, email, or anything. Weve contacted them multiple times and no response or help has been given. It is clearly just nonstop automated messages or emails saying contact customer service, which again, weve done multiple times. I even went to their Instagram to receive more help, only to find out that they blocked me! Please do something about this. This is a complete scam and its extremely upsetting that something like this is allowed. All we want is our *** letter that WE PAID FOR or a refund at this point.Business response

I requested to renew my pets *** status, as I previously used Support Pets last year. Their website states you will receive your letter in ***** hours. It has been 6 days and I have completed their questionnaire 2x (with confirmation emails). I have followed up almost every day with customer service requesting an ETA on that letter and they were unable to give me one. I have still not received the letter. At this point I am requesting a refund and havent received anything. Incredibly disappointed.Business response

I went on the website to be able to purchase a certificate to take my pet anywhere. Its been over a week and still nothing. Ive contacted customer ********************** more than once and keep getting told another ***** hours. Nothing happens. Second they marketed that an *** can be taken anywhere. which is WHY I paid $100 for this. Now Im seeing them trying to get me to pay another $300 because apparently I need a psd certification and they lied about esas being accepted anywhere. I feel I was taken advantage of. Not to mention the fact that I was never informed I wouldnt receive and tangible documentation only an emailed letter. That doesnt seem legit and Im pretty upset about everything thats happened since I placed an order with you. Now it seems Ive wasted $100 when you guys marketed the wrong information. Customer ********************** wont let me speak with anyone higher and they just keeping saying theyre escalating it. If it was escalated and a real business I would be able to discuss my concerns with a manager as well as actually hear a response from someone. DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING ! They are a scam and I will be contacting my bank.Business response

May 6,2024 I ordered ************* (vest & other identification) and was approved on the spot. I have attached a receipt showing this. The gear was to be here in 1-3 weeks and the *** ** could take up to 48 business hours to be emailed to me. As of yet I have not received anything from them. I have had several conversations with them via email, which is my only way of contacting them. They have been very good about getting back to me right away, but still have not sent my ** or a notice showing that any gear has been shipped to me. I did get a notice saying it would be another one to three weeks because they never had my physical address for the Gear. That is false, because in order to complete your order the address has to be filled in. Then they said that they would change my dogs size for her vest as I requested. I never requested it and they had the same size as I sent the first time. The ** could have been sent since our conversations but they havent gotten that to me yet. I let them know that I was getting in touch with my credit card company and would be filing a complaint with them. I also informed them that I would be getting into contact with you and filing a complaint. When I told them that they stopped communication. I have all of the emails saved if you need those.Business response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is semi satisfactory to me. You did refund the double payment, and I thank you for that. However, I really wanted a full refund; instead you sent the papers for the service which covers the $199. Fine

Support pets falsely advertises their services to allow you to take your pet anywhere. "With today's *** approval you'll get access to Official *** gear like Vests, ID cards, Tags and Leashes to make it easy when bringing your furry friend to restaurants, stores, hotels, ride-shares, public transport and more." This explicitly violates the Americans with Disabilities Act and puts actual disabled individuals at risk of untrained pets distracting or attacking actual trained service dogs, as well as breaking health code policies. According to federal law, ***'s do NOT have public access rights. According to federal law, emotional support/comfort is NOT a task. According to federal law, there is also NO service dog certification or registration. This company is fraud and takes advantage of laws meant to protect disabled individuals that utilize service dogs.Business response

We have helped thousands of people over the years, and we aim to help thousands more. The goal of our service is to assist those who genuinely need an *** to live better, healthier lives.Customer response

I am rejecting this response because: you may be a legitimate business but falsely claim and give that people the impression that people can take their ***s in non-pet friendly establishments. You say things like official *** letter makes it easier to bring your pet to stores, restaurants, hotels, ride shares, & more. When you need them most, have them by your side, always. - with pictures of luggage. With the Support Pets Official ***, take your pet with you almost everywhere (with confidence). These are message that say one thing, and imply one thing. While you do clarify *** definitions down at the bottom of the website this is after the false advertising listed above. This is a grey area in the *** and this business is abusing that. You do not clarify that ***s strictly and only have housing rights according to the **** You give people the impression they can take their pet anywhere which is horribly problematic.

I am rejecting this response because your claims are misleading. Nowhere in the application process do you actually explain that. Its deflection and false advertising and you are taking advantage of the disabled community. Again, maybe change your website wording and advertising messaging. Because the wording you are using is misleading and false.
