    Purchased a Freeze Pipe 1/15/2025 with 2-4 days expedited shipping which I paid extra for and I still have not received it. I paid $103.80 and was excited to get it. I've tried numerous times to contact them via Email and phone calls with no response what so ever. It feels like a total scam especially with the company not responding to any of my messages. The **************** is Horrendous and completely non-existent. This is the only thing I feel that I can do which is in my power. Not feeling confident in this company at all whatsoever.

    Hi, 

    We checked the tracking and are not sure what happened.  It looks like **** lost the package.  I asked the team to re-ship this order.  You should receive an email within the next 24 hours that will have the new order's tracking.

    We placed an order for just a pipe order # ****** we then got another email saying they received the updated order, which has somehow disappeared. which included a bong which doubled the cost. My wife immediately emailed them and told them we did not order the bong, there was no update. She has sent a total of 4 emails and I have left a message and we have gotten NO response at all. We have however received both products well 3 we ordered an extra bowl as well. We have emailed to get a return started, but THEY WILL NOT RESPOND.

    I purchased a product from the company freeze pipe, after 8 months it just started leaking for no reason, I asked them to collect the product, examine it, to see the defect in the product, see if this is just a one off or a problem that needs to be addressed, they are unwilling, basically calling me a liar and that their product is not defective, and only offered a 40% discount on a new on. After asking why I would spend more money with a company that does not stand behind their product, she said it was not her responsibility to come to my house and inspect the product, and that they stand behind their product 100% enough to know that there is no defect in the product, and was extremely rude about the whole situation.. it is through online customer service because when I call it goes straight a a generic voicemail and nobody has called me back.. I just want this defective product replaced that's it, I really enjoyed it before it started leaking, and they are just giving me the run around

    This is a glass product that we cannot insure how customers use over 8+ months.  It is unrealistic for a customer to believe we offer free replacements perpetually.

    I placed an order with this Company just under $200, and never received my order. When I contacted the Company I was sent a photo of the delivered package, that wasnt my house. Theyre giving me the runaround and are not available to call. No verbal customer service is available.

    I am filing this report to bring attention to the egregious business practices of The Freeze Pipe. My experience with them has been nothing short of appalling. Upon receiving a package from them, I discovered that two items were missing, and the one item I did receive was defective and rendered non-functional.Despite reaching out for assistance, their response was not only unhelpful but also remarkably rude. It is deeply concerning to encounter such blatant disregard for customer satisfaction and basic decency.Furthermore, my investigation revealed a pattern of unethical behavior and misleading advertisements, particularly on platforms like ********* This consistent misrepresentation is not only damaging to consumers but also reflects a profound lack of integrity within the company.In light of these troubling findings, I urge the Better Business Bureau to take swift and decisive action against Freeze Pipe. Consumers deserve to be treated fairly and honestly, and it is imperative that businesses adhere to the highest standards of ethics and professionalism.
