    Bought product from but didnt like the feel of the material. Didnt even wear it . They gave me a return label and then after I sent it back they sent an email and said they will partially refund me and to keep the item because they cant refund it. How could I possibly keep it when you already gave me a return label and its mid shipment. Company is a rip off.

    Good morning,

    An email was sent to Ms. *** yesterday letting her know that a courtesy full refund for the opened item would be processed once received. I confirmed this morning that it was received back, and a full refund was processed for the garment which was discarded by our quality team as open items cannot be restocked as we adhere to *** regulations.  Ms. *** is aware it will take 3-5 business days to reflect on her credit card but a confirmation email with the transaction ID was emailed to her.   

    The issue has been resolved.   

    Thank you.

    After my abdominal surgery, my surgeon's office recommended Marena. I had to order three sizes, as my surgeon's office failed to tell me to account for post surgical swelling. On 1/11/25 I first ordered two mediums. I only opened one package to see if it would fit which of course it did not. On 1/30/25 I then ordered two more in large and on 2/5/25 I also ordered an extra large just in case. The large size fit, so on 2/14/25 I returned the extra large and the unopened original medium one to get a refund. On 2/18/25 I received an email notifying me that the extra large one was refunded. When I replied to inquire why they were not both refunded as I returned both of them in the same package, I received an email in reply from ***** **** in customer service stating that they would not refund me for the medium as the package had been opened-- which I know for a fact it had not been opened!!! I actually would have preferred to keep the beige medium in fact, instead of the black--I was disappointed that I opened the black one by mistake. I called on 2/18/25 and spoke with ***** from customer service, she said that I would get a call back or an email the next day after she spoke with her supervisor which of course never happened. These are extremely expensive and I am furious that I was not refunded for both of the returns! I returned an unopened package, per their "strict guidelines", and they are refusing to give me a return. This feels like a scam at this point. So disappointed.

    Purchasing for 2-day shipping is fraud. They do not mail your order until the 3rd day. I ordered on a Friday, paid for 2-day shipping and did not receive my order until the following Thursday. No reimbursement. They also market free returns but customers have to pay for returns.

    Good morning,  Ms. ******** order was placed on Friday, April 5th at 5:50 pm and our shipping was closed for the weekend.  The order shipped on Tuesday, April 9th as there is a processing time for orders as stated on our website regardless of any expedited shipping method   It also states to call ************* if an order needs expedited which allows us to reach out to our shipping team and advise of an ETA as our online website is unable to keep up with inventory as it changes continually.  Lastly, our website also states that orders ship Monday - Friday.   One of our ************* Representatives advised Ms. ****** of this when responding to her email regarding a refund of the shipping charge of $22.   

    At this time, we have processed a refund for the $22 shipping as a courtesy which can take 5-7 business days to be reflected to her credit card.

    Marena's return policy states "Due to government regulations, any Marena garment that has been opened or worn for any length of time cannot be returned unless defective"It does not cite a law, and no other company that sells compression, including those that accept health insurance, cite this law. This is not an ethical business practice and the statement doesn't appear to be factual. My doctor requires I wear these garments but it places and undue burden on me as their sizing measurements provided on their website aren't always accurate. There is no physical location or way to ensure proper sizing aside from trying on these garments. They apply this policy to both their compression garment as well as their normal (non medical) leggings.

    I ordered 2 pairs of leggings from The Marena Group (attached) and just received them and tried them on. I did not like how they fit, so I emailed the company to return them. I received an auto reply (attached) that seemed to indicate if I opened the leggings, they would not be eligible for a return because they are classified as a Class I Medical Device by the **** I went back to the website, assuming that I had just missed seeing the information. It is not listed at the top of the landing page (*********************************), it is not listed on the page of the item I bought (*********************************products/me601-compression-leggings?_pos=1&_sid=506c1f634&_ss=r), nor is it listed on the cart or checkout page. It is not listed anywhere on the shipment packaging or the packing of the item itself. It is ONLY listed when you click on "Terms of Use" (*********************************pages/terms) at checkout. Just like many websites, you have to check the box that you have read the terms of use. The return policy is item #9 in the sea of legalese - but then you need to click on the link within the *** to take you to the "policy" (*********************************pages/shipping-and-returns), and THEN you need to read through the entire return information section to find ONE sentence that states this obscure rule (within a paragraph about flaws/defects). As a consumer, I understand that I should be diligently reading every company's terms of use, but as a frequent online shopper, I know these are always full of legalese that laypeople can't understand, and I clicked on it without reading, as I am sure the majority of their customers do. When I ****** their company, most reviews say the same thing, and when I spoke to a supervisor on the phone, she told me she can't make an exception because people call "all the time" asking for this. I am so frustrated that this company is able to hide behind this rule and not refund their customers' money. I hope that you can help not only me, but future customers of Marena.

    Our Returns Policy can also be located on the website, ***************************************************************** states that merchandise may be returned in original unopened packaging for a refund within 30 days of receipt.  The *** who initially assisted ********************** when she called to request a return authorization for both garments purchase, explained our policy for the open item and that it was not eligible for return or refund.   She stated we could offer a store credit towards another purchase; however, no amount was provided as ********************* wished to speak with a supervisor as she wanted a full refund. As a team lead, I, ****************, created a return label for the unopened item which was emailed today and explained how we cannot accept the open garment back which is a strict policy we adhere to as our garments are classified as a Class I medical device.  I also stated we could offer a coupon in the amount of the opened garment that cannot be returned, as a courtesy; however, she wanted a refund as an exception to our policy.  She stated her dissatisfaction and unhappiness with our policy and the call ended.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    Marena is not addressing the real issue, which is that their "return policy" is:

    1. OBSCURE AND ATYPICAL: I have purchased "medical grade" compression leggings from another retailer, and they are able to accept returns.  I have purchased Marena leggings from Amazon, and they accept returns.  

    2.  HIDDEN: In order to find it, you have to click a link, scroll through pages of legalese, then click on another link, then find the ONE sentence in the middle of a paragraph about flaws/defects in the manufacturing.  

    3. DECEITFUL: If Marena wanted their customers to know the policy, they would put that one tiny sentence IN RED on their checkout page, and put a sticker on the outside of every pouch: "If pouch is opened, item will be ineligible for return.".  When I spoke to the supervisor, she told me that she could not make an exception for me because of how many calls they receive every day asking for the same thing.  After all these calls, and all the negative reviews online and on the BBB, why wouldn't they address this unless they truly didn't want people to know.

    4. POSSIBLLY INACCURATE and ILLEGAL: This morning I contacted the medical device department of the *** and am awaiting their response.  *********** is basing a LOT on the ***, so I would like to hear what the *** says.

    Sincerely,

    *****************************

    Good afternoon,  A refund has been processed on February 12th for the unopened item which was returned for a refund - Credit Memo ***** dated 2/12/2024 in the amount of $116.80.  The refund should be reflected back to your credit card on file within 3-5 business days.  Please note our return policy can also be located on the website, *******************************************, which shows the most common questions our customers have when ordering which again explains that open garments are not eligible for refund as well as our shipping policy. Our return policy can be located in multiple locations on our website; therefore, we are unable to provide a refund for the open garment.

    I am rejecting this response because I am not sure why the company is including information that is unrelated (reimbursement for another item, which is not the focus of this BBB complaint).  They also state that the return policy can be found in multiple locations on their website which is completely false.  I need a refund for the item that I originally asked about.  *********** is not responding to my concerns!  They just keep repeating their return policy, which I have stated is obscure, atypical, hidden, deceitful and possibly inaccurate and illegal.  ************ should not even be in business with these practices

    I had an abdominal surgery that requires a compression garment. (I am a nurse) A coworker of mine recommended this product and company. I ordered a size small (I am usually an XS) (I did the measurements according to their site) and ordered the small. Since I am a nurse I had undergarments on (AKA underwear that were thin and protective for trying on the garment. I tried it on and it was too tight. I also did not like the crotch part as it is stiff and too wide. I reached out to the company to return it/exchange it and they responded with this email ***************** <*********************************>5:20AM (6 hours ago)to me Thank you for your response. Please review the Marena Return + Exchange policy listed below for any questions. Due to government regulations, any Marena garment that has been opened or worn for any length of time cannot be returned unless defective. So now what am I supposed to do??? How else would I know if it fits or not. This is ridiculous that an ONLINE purchase can't be returned as well as I am recovering from surgery and need a proper garment.

    Marena's Returns Policy can also be located on the website, *********************************************************** which states that merchandise may be returned in original unopened packaging for a refund within ************************************************************************************************* line with *** and ISO requirements. Our return policy is also stated on the *** page, *************************************************; The customer service representative did offer **************** a 15% off discount towards another online purchase after explaining Marena's policy.  Unfortunately, we are unable to provide a refund for open garments and do not offer exchanges as the item cannot be returned to stock.

    Complaint: 21238301

    I am rejecting this response because:

     

    Your representative did not offer me 15% off for next purchase and nor would I pay more than 50% since the original item can not be worn and paid 125$ for it.  You offer a buy one and get your second one at 50% off.  So, 1) your representative documented incorrectly about the 15 percent off and secondly that is such a second slap in the face to the original.

    Please be advised I purchased a surgical garment that was well over 100 dollars and when I received the package in the mail I saw the packet was open upon review of the garment I saw that it had fine holes with one very visible. I contacted the company the same day but I didn't get an immediate response. I continued to reach out but to no avail nothing. I continued to reach out and I finally received a response but the issue was never resolved. I am asking for your assistance to resolve this matter.

    Marena did receive the emails from the consumer in July. We did not receive photos of the garment the consumer deemed as defective. We will need the photos of the garment and photos of the packaging with the SKU/LOT# from the back of the packaging for our ***************** Team to review. This information we are requesting can be sent to the email address the consumer has used to previously respond to Marena.

    i (unfortuantely) ordered a compression vest with 3/4 sleeves directly from marena. WHAT A MISTAKE!! these can be purchased on amazon with the ability to return but if you buy direct you are out of luck when your garment arrives & doesn't fit. i used the measurements provided at marena's site but my garment actually had different measurements on the package it arrived in. obviously, because this is what people do, i opened the package & of course, the garment didn't fit. the company is lying about there being a government mandate that prohibits them from doing returns/exchanges on "medical garments" if a package is opened. you can obviously see when a garment has not been worn. they're just stealing money. customer service said someone will call me back. i'm still waiting. i'm going to dispute the charge on my credit ******** suggest everyone do the same instead of letting them rip you off. btw, 6 years ago i had to exchange a marena compression garment because it wasn't sized properly...i went through a store & guess what? they exchanged my garment for the correct size. so were they breaking the law? doubt it. please do not support this company!!! all transactions/communication has been between 9/22/23 & 9/27/23.

    I am rejecting this response because: the sizing on the package is different than the sizing on their site AND there is no government LAW stating they cannot exchange garments.  they are not telling the truth. they are trying to avoid giving customers exchanges/refunds and believe using this government fraud statement will shut off any future complaints regarding their shady practice. they also didn't address the sizing issue in their response.  why? they sold me a compression garment with sleeves...on their site the sleeve size i would use is 10 1/4 (S), the small vest/sleeve has a bust size of 36 (also fine for me) they do NOT provide specific sizes for the vest/sleeve garment. they have sizing for a womens recovery garment  & that has an arm size but they do not state the band size (27) which makes this garment smaller than small. the only way to see if the garment will work is to open the package & take a look.  once you open the package you supposedly cannot return garment according to the law?  this is untrue. this has nothing to do with a government regulation.  they also sell shapewear & sportbras.  what they sell is no different than what retailers sell in lingerie departments for shapewear.  the wrong size i ordered  is their fault , it's because of their faulty sizing online & i want my money refunded.

    I am rejecting this response because: they are being deceitful about the sizing and their return policy siting government regulation is untrue.  this item is sold on amazon & it is returnable there.  also, i did purchase one of their garments previously from a brick & mortor store & the sizing was off & i exchanged it with the store.  this business is hiding behind "government" to sell items with an unrealistic return/exchange policy.  the sizing on this garment, the band size, is mentioned NOWHERE on their site & the arm sizing, listed on their site, would lead me to purchase a small (which i did) & it doesn't fit.  they think they can steal consumer dollars by pretending the government will not let them exchange/return garments that have a broken seal on an envelope, i.e. garments that have NEVER been worn, just removed from the package to check the size.  these people are thieves & i hope all consumers that have been ripped off by this company file complaints with the BBB & their credit card companies.  i have this charge currently in dispute because i bought an unusable product DUE to the sizing they have listed at their site.  the lies about the government prohibiting them from acting like a responsible company are just disgusting.

    I ordered a compression garment off Marena's website. I spent over an hour getting my credit card to work because it kept declining on their website for reasons unknown to me. After finally resolving the issue, I noticed in the confirmation email that the garment I purchased was in the wrong color (the name of the item indicated black, but the color of the garment was **** in my shopping cart). Within 5 minutes, I called Marena to cancel my order. I got sent to voicemail, so I left a message. I followed up with an email. They shipped my order without even reading the email or checking their voice messages. They offered me a shipping label as a "one-time courtesy" to return the garment. I then returned the item using the shipping label. When my refund came, I saw that they only gave me a partial refund and still charged for the shipping. So much for "one-time courtesy"! This company has the sloppiest business model and worst customer service I have ever seen. If I knew that they were going to cause me so much hassle, I would have gladly purchased from another company. I highly suggest never purchasing directly from this company's website.

    ****************** placed her online order with Marena on September 7, 2023 and the garment was delivered to her ship to address on Monday, September 11th. She did send an email to our ******************************* email address, requesting to cancel her order. ****************** was advised that once an order has been placed, Marena is unable to cancel nor make any modification to an order.

    As a one-time courtesy, a prepaid ***** shipping label was emailed to ******************, at no cost to her, to have the garment returned back to Marena. The garment was returned, and she was refunded for the cost of the garment, $113.94, minus shipping cost on September 18th. 

    Per Marena's Return policy: "Credit will be issued based on the invoice amount for the value of the merchandise only, less any applicable shipping fees."
