On Monday, September 23, 2024, I brought a tour group to ************* in ***************, *************. We were told that if we spent $100 or more, we could have our purchase(s) shipped. I spent $186.31 and requested that my purchase be shipped. I was told it would take about a week. I requested that they wait two days, until Wednesday, September 25 before shipping. I didnt want the package to arrive before I got home. Per the receipt, **** said I would receive an email when the package was shipped. Its been a week since the purchase and I have not received an email, I contacted their customer service and was told they do NOT ship purchases made in the store. The woman advised me to go back to the store with my receipt to resolve the problem. I live in ****. The store is in *************. Needless to say, thats not an option. I attempted to resolve the problem through their online system as well, but cannot get through via that system. The message I got is that they are experiencing technical difficulties.Business response

I am attempting to claim warranty on my products which have wrapped and rusted however the customer care has asked that I ship the products at my own cost and have to await a pending period before receiving new products. I mentioned that the cost to ship exceeds that value at which I purchased the set for and also if I will not receive a replacement for time period then I would need to purchase a new set which defeats the purpose of claiming warranty on the product. I would appreciate if warranty could please be honored and new product be sent. If the company would like the original set back, would appreciate if we can arrange this for after I receive a replacement and not at my cost. Otherwise, I do not see the value in purchasing this product in the future or the warranty.Business response

I ordered an order online at **************** August 18th, 2024, My original order was never received from OnTrack who they used to ship my order. I contacted Yankee candle about this, and they replaced my order and decided to ship it with the same carrier. That order also never came both show they had been delivered by OnTrack at 11:30pm. No one delivers at almost midnight. I have told Yankee candle I want a refund, and they plainly told me to talk with OnTrack and won't give me my money back. It's not my responsibility to contact a carrier about a lost order. ****** candle chose that carrier and had insurance through that carrier not me as a customer. So, Yankee candle has decided to keep my money, and I haven't gotten any items for my money spent.Business response

I am rejecting this response because: Theses items were a gift and don't have the receipt I did ask the purchaser for the receipt which was a REAL embarrassment and told them what was going on. I also threw out the pieces since they were disgusting! I believe my family got sick from the "peeling" when heated up . We were all in the Emergency room this week .

I was on yankee candles website and they were advertising 4 large candles for $48. I selected from the fragrances listed. When I tried to complete the order from the cart, it was not giving me the candles for the price. It was giving it to me 2 for $36. I called their customer service line to see if there was a code or if they could complete the order for me. I was advised that the promotion was in May and had expired and they could not honor the price. They offered 50% off of my purchase which would be $15.50 and not $12.00. Mind you it is was 8/22 that I am seeing this so why is it still on the website. I checked again 8/23 and it was still indicated after I was on the phone with them for almost a hour with no success on 8/22. I did take screen shots from the website which I am Including with this complaint. All I am asking is for the 4 for $48 be honored since it is listed on their website. ThanksBusiness response

I went into ************* in ******* on August 16, 2024 and asked the salesperson to check rhe balance on two gift cards. He pulled the balances up on his personal cellphone and told me one card had a balance of $30 and the other had a balance of $10. I asked him why he had to use his phone and he told me for some reason he couldn't pull it up on the register; which was strange to me. I didn't purchase anything at that time. I went back to the same store 2 days later on August 18th and was told by another salesperson the cards no longer have a balance at all to my surprise. I called customer service and was told to go back to the store have the money put back on the cards and was told at the store there was nothing they could do and they didn't know who worked thar day which I know they have a record of who worked that day. I would like my money back.Business response

I purchased a Marmot Limelight 3P tent in 2014 which carries a lifetime warranty (at least that what they attempt to call it). I sent them pictures of the damage (the rainfly is becoming delaminated...a piece of it is practically falling off), and they offered me a discount on the equivalent tent they currently sell. I expect them to repair or replace it in full, not just give me a discount.Business response

The consumer was contacted and offered a replacement tent instead of the warranty credit. They found this solution acceptable and the replacement order has been placed.Initial Complaint
