  I ordered two Naomi Feminine Balance Gummies - 60 Pack 2 and never received them. I have no way to contact the company. Ive written multiple emails never got a response from them. Dont deal with ***********. I just want my order. I would be back in December. They said it was shipped because theres a shipping number tracking number numerous attempts to no response back and the website doesnt give you a phone number to call. I dont know what to do at this point

  Hi *******,

  Thank you for reaching out. After reviewing the details provided, we do not have any record of your order, nor do we sell "Naomi Feminine Balance Gummies." Additionally, the order confirmation you attached does not match any products from Naomi Whittel Brands.
  

  It appears your purchase was made from a different company. We recommend checking your order confirmation email for the correct retailers contact information. Unfortunately, we are unable to assist with this matter, as the order was not placed with us.
  
  We hope youre able to get this resolved soon.
  
  Best regards,
  Naomi Whittel Brands Customer Experience Team

  The design of the website somehow tricked me into a subscription by making an order for a single product. You can see for yourself (attached) that no notice of a subscription was provided in the invoice. I was quite surprised to get a last-minute notice of more product and $70 more expense.

  Dear *****,

  Thank you for reaching out and for giving us the opportunity to address your concerns. We truly appreciate your business and understand how frustrating this situation may have been for you.
  

  After reviewing your order history, wed like to clarify a few details:
  

  - The order confirmation screenshot included in your complaint was for a one-time purchase of Italian Citrus Bergamot + ************ Boost using a coupon code. Our subscriptions are only available in 3-month and 6-month supplies, and we only allow special coupon codes to apply to subscriptions. The code used in that order was only valid for a one-time purchase, confirming that this was not a subscription.
  

  - We were able to locate your account and found that you signed up for a 3-month subscription of Italian Citrus Bergamot + Resveratrol & Olive **** on October 26, 2024. The confirmation email for this order clearly states "3-month supply," indicating a subscription.
  

  - You received two subscription shipmentsone in October and another on January 24thwhich aligns with the expected schedule of your subscription plan.
  

  - When signing up on our website, the subscription option is clearly labeled as Subscribe & Save on the product page, alongside the one-time purchase option for full transparency before checkout. I have included screenshots of the product pages on both products for increased clarity. 
  

  That said, we sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration this may have caused. We can confirm that your subscription has been canceled, and you will not receive any further shipments.
  If theres anything else we can assist you with, please dont hesitate to reach out. We appreciate your time and feedback and hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future.

  Hi ****,

  Thank you for sharing your experience. We sincerely apologize for the confusion and frustration you encountered, and we truly regret the inconvenience this caused.

  After reviewing the situation, we found that while you reached out to us during the first weekend in December, we do not currently offer **************** on weekends. This is clearly noted on our website, but we understand how this may have been frustrating when you needed assistance. We are actively working to expand our customer care availability to prevent situations like this in the future.

  Additionally, upon reviewing our records, we did not find any prior communication attempts from you or any attempts to cancel your subscription through our subscription management service before this weekend. If there was an issue preventing you from reaching us or managing your account, we sincerely apologize and would be happy to investigate further.

  As per your request, we have canceled your subscription. You should receive a confirmation email shortly. A member of our team will also be reaching out to provide further resolutions in an effort to make things right and turn this experience around for you.

  We also noticed that you mentioned difficulty in navigating how to cancel your subscription, as the options to skip or postpone orders were more apparent. We apologize for any confusion and want to reassure you that resources are available in our *********** and through our 24/7 Chat Bot to assist with managing your subscription.

  We value your understanding and are committed to ensuring a better experience moving forward. Please dont hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns.

  Warm regards,

  Naomi Whittel's supplements are of good quality. I have been subscribing to this company for a number of supplements for that reason. However, the company's business model and customer service is deplorable. Two products that I subscribed to within the last 6 months of this report have been discontinued. The problem is that the company does not inform subscribers of such. The products in question are ******** and Norwegian Omega-3 supplements. In both cases, no email was sent, nor was there any notification as a mailer through the ***** It was therefore incumbent upon me, a subscriber, to chase them to find out why I was not receiving the products. I just learned today (once again, through my outreach to the company customer service phone line) that the Omega-3 supplement has been discontinued. As a business owner, myself, I find this policy/practice to be utterly unacceptable. Naomi Whittel brands certainly inundate existing and potential customers with mailers through **** and with email marketing messages. It begs the question, then, as to why the Company does NOT send out mass emails to inform their customers when products are no longer available.... especially to those subscriber customers who consistently give the Company their business? Despite my previous complaint when they cancelled the ******* product several months ago, it apparently fell on deaf ears. So now, I am filing this report to let any prospective buyer know that this situation exists with Naomi ******* brands before they order or, especially, subscribe.

  Hi ******,

  Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered with your orders and the communication errors regarding the discontinued products. We strive to maintain proactive and transparent communication with all our customers, and we regret that this was not reflected in your experience.

  Upon review, we discovered that your email address was inadvertently excluded from the notifications about the discontinuation of these items. Normally, we send multiple notifications to keep our subscribers informed and offer alternative product options. Unfortunately, this oversight prevented you from receiving these updates.
  

  We deeply value your loyalty as a customer and appreciate your feedback, which is crucial for us to improve our processes. We are taking immediate steps to address this clerical error to ensure that similar issues do not occur in the future.
  

  We would like to make things right and offer you any additional support or resolution you might need. Please feel free to reach out to us via email and request to speak with a manager. We are committed to finding a solution that meets your needs and restores your confidence in our service. Thank you once again for your understanding, and we hope you have a wonderful day.
  

  Best regards,

  Naomi Whittel Customer Service

  Complaint: 22066666

  
  Thank you for your response. I am afraid, however, that I am not buying this excuse about not including my email. Further, the policy was not clearly articulated as to how discontinued products are being communicated.

  In addition to the failure to inform existing customers/subscribers via email, when both of the products in my complaint were discontinued, Naomi Whittel brands posted absolutely NOTHING about such on their website. And, in the listing of my order history, there is no notation that the products had been discontinued. In other words, no breadcrumbs.... It was as if these products had never existed. The business needs to take a serious look at its policies with regard to discontinuation. 

  Additionally, for at least 2 years now, there has been a teaser on the website about a rewards program that was to be announced. Another empty promise... and this matters to someone like me, a loyal customer and single woman, who spends at least $1,000 per year. I have asked about it with a customer service *** on the phone through the years, and they are clueless. Why even post this on the site if it's not going to happen? Yet another faulty business practice. 

  While I have no complaints about products -- in fact, to the contrary -- these communication issues really sour the business-client relationship by eroding confidence. I only wish to see these types of issues resolved to restore my confidence in what is otherwise a positive experience.

  Sincerely,

  Dear ******,
  

  Thank you for your continued feedback and for bringing these important issues to our attention. I sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience youve experienced with our communication and service.
  

  We deeply regret the oversight regarding the discontinuation of the ******* and Norwegian Omega-3 supplements. Our standard practice is to notify both subscribers and one-time purchasers via email when a product is discontinued. It appears there was a failure in our system that prevented these notifications from reaching you. As previously stated, we are currently reviewing and enhancing our notification process to ensure that all customers are promptly informed about product changes.
  

  Additionally, we understand your concerns about the lack of visibility regarding discontinued products on our website and order history. We agree that clear communication is essential, and we are working to improve how we display product status and updates on our site.
  

  Regarding the rewards program teaser on our website, I apologize for the delay and any confusion this may have caused. We have been actively working on developing this program, and I assure you that your feedback will help us address this matter more transparently. I was recently brought in to oversee the Customer Experience team and am committed to ensuring that our communication policies and customer service are continuously improved. I understand that your previous experiences have not met the desired standard, but with joining the team I want to assure you that I will work diligently to correct these issues and ensure a better overall experience for our customers like you. 

  Our *********** is relatively new, and we are diligently training our staff to better handle customer inquiries and concerns. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us enhance our service, and we are incorporating your comments into our training and policy review processes.
  

  We value your loyalty and are committed to restoring your confidence in our brand. If you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out directly to me or our customer support team and ask to speak to the manager, I'd be happy to personally hop on the phone to properly document all your concerns as I develop a plan to make our processes better. We are here to support you and ensure your satisfaction.
  

  Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work to improve our service.
  

  Sincerely,

  Naomi Whittel Customer Service

  Hello, On 02/16/2023, I sent the following email to Naomi Whittel Brands company regarding a refund request: "Over the course of the past year (starting on February 26th,2022), I made the following orders: Order# NW-136587-SH BP Advanced Total: $34.00 Date:02/26/2022 Order # ************ Joint Adapt Prostate Beta Plus BP Advanced Total:$76.50 Date:03/04/2022 Order# ************ Sleep Adapt Prostate Beta Plus Joint Adapt Total:$83.20 Date:04/18/2022 Order# NW-179087-SH BP Advanced Total:$27.30 Date:07/03/2022 Order# ************ (2)- BP Advanced Total:$39.00 Date:08/28/2022 I received no results using the Sleep Adapt and the Prostate Beta Plus. I initially received some slight improvement with the first bottle of Joint Adapt, but nothing with the second bottle. I initially received some good results with the BP Advanced, but after using several bottles, the effective-ness seemed to wear off. I recently became aware of your 365 day refund policy. Therefore, per your 365 day Refund Policy (which would cover all the above mentioned orders), I am asking for a refund of the cost of all the products listed that I did order ($260.00-as all orders included Free Shipping), and did honestly use per the instructions, but overall, I was NOT satisfied with these products. Please let me know that you did receive this letter. " On 02/19/2023, I received the following response: Ashley (NAOMI WHITTEL ) Feb 19, 2023, 12:19 PM EST "Due to the age of these ordersm we are unable to refund the original credit card on file with the order.  Can you please provide your ****** email address for a refund or provide your mailing address and we will issue a paper check." On 02/20/2023, I replied with this email: "Thank you for your response.  Please send my refund ($260.00) to our *** *** email address at: ******************  Please let me know when you have done so." As of 03/18/2023, I still haven't received a refund. I have sent more emails & calls,but still have not received a refund.

  I purchased a health product from this business 3 months ago. They have a one-year return policy. The product is defective and made me ill. I have sent the company four emails asking for information on how to get a refund and return the unused product. I even called their office, filed a formal complaint about the product, and answered questions about how the product made me sick.
