  More info

  I have never experienced customer service as horrible as I have from IK Multimedia in the 40 years I have been purchasing musical equipment! I spent almost $600 on a ***** pedal and additonal ************* upgrades, yet have been unable to use them for over a month because they refuse to just fix my account where I can access it. To use these products you have to have an account with IK ****************** to use their proprietary software. I have an account problem where my password isn't working, and all I need is the ability to make a new password. I have sent at least 20 emails and form submissions and they will not respond! So now I own a piece of music gear that is absolutely worthless because I can't use the software it requires to make it work. It's nothing more than a paperweight, and a very expensive one at that! All they have to do is fix my account so I can use the $600 worth of merchandise I bought from them. Is that really too hard to do?? This is truly Unbelievable!!

  This has been the worst experience I have ever had purchasing music software from any business in my entire life. I purchased the ** Multimedia piano software called (** Grand S274) for $140.39 on Feb 16. When I initially attempted to download the software last Friday, I experienced issues downloading it because my computer lacked enough memory space. After multiple attempts, I submitted a trouble ticket to ** Multimedia and received a trouble ticket confirmation number from the tech support team. (Ticket # *******) One of their supervisors, ************ responded to my trouble ticket and told me to install all of the sounds into the default path. This solution did NOT work. At the end of *****'s email, he advised that if I had any questions about these steps, to email the ** Multimedia Tech Support team directly to avoid opening a second trouble ticket and that a technician would contact me as soon as possible. Since then, I have emailed the Tech Support Team 6 TIMES while providing snapshots of my technical issue and I haven't received a response from anyone. I have even called their direct line ************ and my calls was delivered immediately to a voice mail messaging system without any return phone call attempts. I hope as a result of this formal complaint, someone will contact me to finish the service I should've been provided after paying for this product.

  Sorry to read of the troubles with your recent ********** purchase and installation. We certainly understand your frustrations at the issue persisting over the weekend. Please note that our offices are closed over the weekend as well as this past Monday for President's ********************** reviewing your ticket, I see multiple requests for a refund today. Would you like to further troubleshoot this issue or would you rather obtain a refund for $140.39 at this point in time?

  Please confirm and I will assist in getting the refund completed for you. Otherwise, the best resolution would be to connect via a remote connection so we can clear up the install concerns for you. 

  Again, sorry to read of the situation and for any frustrations!

  More info

  Company is engaging in online bait and switch practices to sell their products. I found a $99 deal for Amplitude 5 Max ** on their website, added it to my cart, and then browsed the website for a few minutes. I then went to check out and started to enter my information when I noticed that the price had somehow DOUBLED from $99 to $199 in my shopping cart. I did not complete the transaction. I then emailed their ************* who sent me some vague one-liner email about some 6 day grace ******* which made NO SENSE. I literally put this item in my cart 15 minutes prior at one price, and then when I went to pay with my CC, I almost paid DOUBLE for this item due to their bait and switch tactics.

  Hello *******, 

  My name is *********************, I am the Support Manager with IK Multimedia. 

  We appreciate your interest in AmpliTube! Sorry to read of the situation and your comments surrounding the pricing. IK Multimedia has been a leader of music technology for over 25 years, there is no bait-and-switch practices occurring here rather the price changed as the promotional offer literally just ended during the period you were shopping apparently. 

  Why you were denied the option though to complete your purchase is a question I am seeking with the prior rep. **** should have certainly been made available to you considering the timing and your feedback. 

  I am more than happy to offer you the AmpliTube 5 MAX ** at $99.99 if you wish to proceed. Please confirm and I am happy to assist there in arranging that price. 

  Again, sorry to read about this entire situation. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know and I am happy to assist.

  More info

  I use ** Multimedia products in most of the music production tracks I make. I recently purchased a new Mac computer and set it up by migrating everything from my old machine via time machine. When you migrate to a new machine, you have to re-authorize the software, so I tried to login to ** Product Manager and my password didn't work. I filled out the form to have a reset link sent to my email. That didn't work (and yes, I did check my spam/junk folder). I tried multiple times and I never received the email.Next, I filled out a support request. That was two days ago and I've heard nothing. I tried the phone number for support, tried to contact sales, customer service, etc., they all dead end and direct you to the website. I couldn't even post in the forum (because my login wouldn't work). I even tried to post to the ** Multimedia ******** page and did get a response pretty quickly but they explained that they are not in support and that I would need to open a support ticket.For a company who's tag line is "Musicians First", I'm finding ironic that they can't provide basic support services (e.g. immediately issuing a ticket number and auto response to support requests so that they can be tracked). I've uploaded the receipt/invoice from my latest purchase (which I am unable to access) in hopes that someone will reach out to help me.

  Over the past years I have bought three sound interface products from ** multimedia which come with licensed software. I recently upgraded my computer so I need to re-install the software. The software product that I use the most is Amplitube 4, but there other ** multimedia software products I am licensed for. When I go to the company website to download the installation program, the only way to obtain them is through the download and the installation of an ** Multimedia provided software called "** product manager". I am able to download the ** product manager installation file, but whenever I launch the installation the computer shuts down without warning and restart.I opened a support ticket with ** multimedia support and explained the problem, but all the replies I am getting are not only not resolving the issue, but they ignore the description of the issue and my past responses and ask questions that are not at all related to the problem.I am not able to use the ** multimedia products that I own as the ** multimedia software fails to install.

  Customer response

  11/05/2023

  The customer service got in contact with me and advised on an alternative way to download the software without needing the ** Product Manager. 

  I was able to install the software so I would like to close the complaint.

  More info

  I purchased a device online that said it would work with iPhone and android products. After receiving the item, the box made mention of the huge difference in services given to iPhone owners vs. Android customers. I then made a return request, it was accepted, they said I would take care of the shipping, I discussed how this was inappropriate and unacceptable to which a reply of, "send in your device and we will work out the refund." Was the reply. It sounded to me as if they would return the $30 delivery fee. They didn't and won't give me my money back. I asked for upper management to intervene and they denied my request. First, the product isn't what they had advertised, second the item is no longer in the site where I found it so I may discern the exact verbage, and then take my money as a punishment for being a customer who has purchased many problematic software products. I had read good reviews of their hardware, and decided that it may work for me, as their software was getting better and easier to use, but they robbed me.

  Business response

  10/02/2023

  My name is *********************, I am the Support Manager for ** Multimedia. We have been conversing in one of your recent tickets to us on this topic, ticket #*******. As discussed in the Support ticket, the hardware is compatible with Android and will function on compatible devices. The bonus software content and what is included is all available for review prior to purchase on both the box and on our website as provided in the ticket. You may view that information here:   *******************************************************************************

  We do apologize for any confusion here but after reviewing your tickets, I am unable to locate where a rep stated we would refund your shipping. In the context of your question, I do see where we refer to refunding the purchase of the iRig Pro Duo IO but prior in the ticket, it was stated that ** Multimedia does not cover the return cost in such a case where the user decides they no longer want the item. If there was a manufacturer defect, for example, we would then cover the cost in that type of situation. 

  I am sorry to read your further comments as that is certainly not the case. Payment was made to the *** Store, not ** Multimedia on this return. As offered in the ticket, we can provide you 30 JamPoints as a resolution to this concern. These JamPoints can be used as a discount on the ** website towards another product. 

  Your order itself for the hardware has been refunded since last week. 

  Thanks.

  Complaint: 20676769
  
  I am rejecting this response because: There is no warning, on the site at time of my purchase, that me tinned there were features only available to iPhone users. Unfortunately the product is not on the site being advertised so that I may provide the details that I was privy to. On the contrary to any refund being made towards the shipping, there is an email saying to send the product back so that they could send my refund. This was after back to back arguments of how the product is mislabeled giving the buyer the idea that the item would work for Android and iPhone and all features inherent. This was not the case when I opened the box and read the instructions. There is no way to know that there is a product bias until item makes it to customer. This is why I want my shipping refunded. 
  
  Sincerely,

  Thanks for your reply. 

  Ultimately, there is a responsibility by the customer to review what they are purchasing. Our website and packaging clearly state what is included. The link that shows what is included has been provided to you multiple times so its not clear why its being stated that information is not available. We do apologize if there was still further confusion on what was included. 

  To resolve this case, we will make an exception and provide a refund that was paid to ***. 

  Please provide a copy of your *** receipt and confirm your mailing address to send the check. 

  Thanks.

  In the box that I had delivered the return product, I placed the receipt for the shipping charges so that they would have a receipt for money I spent so I could be reimbursed. My cost is twice what they spent in shipping fees. They have requested a receipt, I sent them my only copy as my printer was out of ink. I was under the impression I was going to be reimbursed, so it made no difference, plus they have the receipt already, and they can look up the normal rate consumers pay vs. a corporation. The difference in rates is ridiculous. I paid 29. And change to send the unit to them. If you could relay that I sent the receipt already, I would appreciate it.

  I am rejecting this response because: there was also the receipt from my purchase of the shipping, which is exactly double their cost. I included both receipts to show how we should have used the opportunity afforded Ik multimedia. Had we used their resources I would have made for an arrangement to split the costs. That didn't seem to be an option.

  I ordered an X-Space pedal which was on backorder, on May 26. My credit card was processed at that time. I inquired on June 12 as to availability estimate, and received a reply that the item was backordered, but that once available I'd receive a notification via e-mail. I checked the website on July 5 and saw that the pedal was showing as 'in-stock'. I had not received any notification. I contacted support and asked when this would ship, since under the FAQs on the site, backordred items would ship immediately upon being in stock. I was told on July 5 that my order should be shipping soon. I contacted support again on July 13 to ask if there was an update, and received a reply that there was not an exact date and to please stand by. I contacted support again on July 20 and received the same, please stand by response. I also submitted a separate support ticket on July 16, hoping that by submitting an additional request it would possibly be addressed.I am a long time customer, have spent thousands of dollars on software and hardware. I've never felt the need to fill out a complaint, but I do not know how else to get this resolved. I've been charged for an item that I ordered two months ago, that's now been in stock at least 3 weeks (maybe longer?), and no resolution in sight. I would like the pedal shipped out to me immediately, as the website indicates customers who have item on backorder should get first priority when the item becomes available!!!!!!!

  Business response

  07/21/2023

  Hello *****, 

  My name is *********************, I am the Support Manager for IK Multimedia. 

  We certainly appreciate your interest in our products and your purchase of the **SPACE pedal. Unfortunately, despite what the website stock mentioned, we are out of stock at this time. More units are in production and should be available for shipping within the coming weeks as production and shipment overseas takes some time. 

  We certainly do apologize for any confusion due to the 'In Stock' message appearing. There have been some concerns that we are looking into. A message should've been sent to you by our order processing team, was this not received?

  As for resolution to your concerns, we can continue to hold the order and ship when units are in, or we can cancel this and provide a full refund. 

  Please confirm how you would like to proceed. 

  Thanks.

  Better Business Bureau:

   

  Thank you **** for responding quickly. I'm disappointed to hear the units are in fact out of stock and not known when they will be. I had not received any messages after ordering aside from an initial message in early June, that the pedals were out of stock at that time. In my request ticket from July 5 and the response I'd received, it gave the impression they were in stock and would ship to me soon, but never any information or notice they were in fact still out of stock. I also mentioned in my ticket I ordered the pedal for use in some gigs in August, which is why the sense of urgency was heightened for me. The response was to stand by, which did not help me understand the details you provided.

  At this point, please refund my purchase price as well as the JamPoints I used to help in the purchase, since I won't receive it in the time frame I need it. Also, can I ask if there is a way I can have a 'raincheck' on the $199 price, so that when they are in stock again, I can re-order at the price I'd obtained? I guess the only concern I still have is that now I have doubts in general about the website's 'in stock' status and if that is accurate, so I'm not sure how I will approach ordering anything hardware-related directly from the site in the future. 
  
  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

  I bought an IK Multimedia iRig Acoustic Stage on Amazon Last September. I used it three times, and it was damaged. Furthermore, I contacted IK Multimedia in ******* for the warranty, and they asked me to mail the dive to their headquarters in *******. I did it three months ago, and they always told me they would replace the part with a new one. I have been waiting for a long time. Likewise, I have been writing almost one email per week asking him that I would like to be reimbursed (150$ plus ****** Taxes). Finally, they answered my email, telling me that they didn't have the part in stock and I could choose another product with the same price or less.I am not interested in another part, and I don't want anything from this company because their products are very cheap and of nasty quality. The only thing that I want is my money back. Please, I ask you for your help. You have all my information and I will submit the copy of the last email and the invoice

  My name is *********************, I am the Support Manager for IK Multimedia. 

  Sorry to read of the situation here. Unfortunately, stock on the iRig Acoustic Stage is the current issue and we would not be able to fulfill any replacement until late June due to component shortages. 

  I checked into this and normally we are unable to refund an item purchased from a dealer but with Amazon, we can proceed with the refund request. I have informed my team to process the refund for you and will have confirmation by tomorrow. 

  We do apologize for any frustrations over this item. If you have any further questions or concerns that I can assist with, please feel free to reply here.

  More info

  I purchased a standard edition($149) of the companies ***** product and it had an upgrade option to unlock to the full MAX($199) *******. After using the product for a while to determine if I enjoyed it I went to upgrade but now the upgrade option is missing. I sent an email to their customer service asking how do I upgrade to the Max ******* and was told I would have to rebuy the product at full price of $199. This did not sit well with me because its essentially forcing the end user to pay full price to only receive a portion of new content that they already purchased. I was told by the employee sorry about your luck, but that was the only option. I was a bit upset about the email correspondence so I went to the companies forum to explain the situation, maybe to get a bit more of a resolution, only to be told by their main forum moderator ******* who goes by the title Kingpin, that was in fact the policy, I explained you are forcing existing users to double pay to upgrade where as a new user would only have to pay once, he didnt reply, but another user chimed in with the same disappointment and then the forum post was deleted from the forum. Upset due to this extremely poor handling of the situation and the fact that they are double charging customers, I reposted a new post in the forum again explaining the situation this time it didnt get to see the light of day it was deleted immediately. It is like they are hiding this situation from others seeing it. I feel this is a totally unfair business practice. For me to get the full product I would have to spend $348 to get the MAX ******* where as a new user would only have to spend $199, I sent another support ticket with no response and also sent a private message to ******* asking why mosts are being deleted also with no response.

  Hello *****, 

  My name is ********************* with ** Multimedia Support. Regarding this complaint, we have spoken already via your Support ticket with ** and from my understanding, all has been resolved to mutual satisfaction. 

  Please advise if you have any further concerns regarding this case and I am happy to assist. 

  I have copy/pasted our discussion from your Support ticket with us for full clarity on the discussed resolution:

   

  ********************;posted 5/2/23, 6:43 PM 
  My name is *********************, I am the Support Manager for ** Multimedia.
  
  Sorry to read about the situation here. ***** was on introductory pricing when you originally purchased and unfortunately, that ********ed pricing has expired. Please note that the difference between ***** and ***** *** is not small, so while there is some duplication of content technically, it's important to note what is gained here. The difference between ***** and ***** *** is the number of models provided. ***** comes with 400 Premium Tones while ***** *** comes with ***** Premium Tones. That is 700 additional tones!
  
  It is also important to note here that the price you are seeing is because you are logged in and seen as a current user. The price for you to move into ***** *** is $199.99 but the price for a new customer is $299.99. If you logout of your User Area and view the ***** page, you will be able to confirm this.
  
  ***** webpage:
  *****************************************************************
  
  Note that current users typically have JamPoints saved up to further ******** a purchase.
  
  Regarding the ** Forums, some of the terms used go against the rules of the forum which are agreed upon during signup. Using words such as 'manipulating' in the subject violates such rules and that is the reason why the post was ultimately removed. Additionally, your forum post did not reflect your Support ticket interaction as I read it. At no point did we say "tough luck" or similar comments. Aside from this ticket, the interaction was short and brief where our rep stated similar to the above, that ***** was on intro pricing and then commented on being able to use JamPoints. You replied stating it was a high cost for you at this time and you were looking into other options.
  
  I am sorry to read that this situation has morphed into something bigger than it needed to be. We certainly appreciate your interest in ***** and we are happy to work with you here to make that happen. If you would like to upgrade, I am happy to gift you further JamPoints to bring the price down to its lowest via JamPoints. At $199.99, you can apply 60 JamPoints, bringing the price down to $139.99. I can gift you these JamPoints as a good middle-ground resolution to your expressed concerns and for any frustrations experienced.
  
  If this sounds reasonable to you, please confirm and I will update your account with the additional JamPoints.
  
  If I have missed some communication here that has lead us to this point, please provide further details for my review and deeper understanding.
  
  If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.
  
  Thanks.

  More info

  I made a purchase from IK Multimedia on 2/16/2023 Order No. 2023US491161WEB for ****** plus tax for a total of ******, I requested a cancelation of the order the same day before it shipped, I have an email accepting my cancelation a few days later the item showed up at my house. They claimed it was sent by mistake. I then requested a return for refund. They accepted and provided me with a shipping label so I sent it back and they received it on 2/27/2023 and I keep getting the run around on my refund so I have around 20 email exchanges about my refund and they keep giving me excuses, I then received an email from ***** W and he claimed he was a manager and refunded my money, in his email it says he is a support supervisor. I have checked my account a few times since then and there is no refund. They are playing games and have no intention of refunding me. I can provide numerous emails of then making excuses. I have attached the return shipping so they cannot claim it wasnt returned. I will need a refund asap and they will be getting numerous 1 star ratings on legit review websites and will escalate this as far as I need to.
