I have been a customer of ********************** for many years.I have always paid my **** on time and enjoyed their products.A few weeks ago I sent in an order and never received it so I called the company.They informed me that my order had been cancelled. I asked them who cancelled it?They said it had been cancelled because I had an outstanding balance. I told them they were mistaken because I always paid my ****.They then told me it was from November of last year. They said I owed ****! Why in the name of God did they wait until now to tell me that I owed them ****?I have no intention of paying it and I wonder why my excellent customer status is not being considered. I will never do business with this company again if this is the way they treat people!!!!!!!!!Business response

Rec'd a **** from *** saying I had a balance over $200. I called them and was told I hadn't made any payments since May. I have all my receipts showing where I paid from my bank. Was told to get proof from my bank and fax to them which I did within 2 days. Still 2 weeks later payments are not posted to my acct. I call just now and there is note in system saying I now need fronts and backs of my checks showing I paid. I ask how I was shipped about 7 orders from the time apparently they have told me I hadn't paid them and they said they go by a credit report and since I have a good one they will still send orders out. I sent them what they ask for in order to apply my payments to my acct and I am still showing a bal over $200. I need this corrected. Thank youBusiness response

I bought 2 plants in May. What I received was 2 rotten roots that I could not use. I called the company and told them that I was not going to pay for a bad product. They said they understand and cancelled the account and said that they would remove the charges. 5 months later I am still receiving statements from Ready Credit with the same charges over and over again. I have called many times the customer ******* of *** and Ready Credit. Both of them saying that it is the other one who can eliminate the charges. It's been ridiculous. Every week, I called and explain again that I am not paying for something that was rotten and supposedly cancelled. I am sick of this company.Business response

I placed a order with *** Commondities 8/12/21. I ordered I thought a 3 pc kids appliance set for *****. When I received my order I only got one coffee maker and was **** but was charged *****. I called that same day and i was told I'd be credited because they no longer had the mixer. But if I wanted the toaster I'd have to reorder. I told them just to credit my card. After a month and still no credit I emailed and complained. They kept emailing me back stating I had ordered 3 coffee makers. I said ok fine but I only got one. They never mention a refund just that I ordered 3 coffee makers. ??. I know it's not that much money but it's the principal and they can't seem to understand I was overcharged. Should have been **** not *****. Order number ************. It's obvious they don't want to help me. They keep saying I ordered 3 coffee makers and if I have any questions email back. Which I've done 5 times! Thank you. ***************************.Business response

On 6/4/21 I purchased items online from LTD Commodities in the amount of $71.22. I had received their catalog in my mail unsolicited and saw the items there. After receiving the items I have been getting charged a monthly subscription fee for their perks program which I didnt know anything about. In July, August and September they charged $14.95 on my Amex card for LTDPerks. This is so unscrupulous, to deceive people who purchase from them with an ongoing monthly fee for a program they dont even know about. I want a refund for the three $14.95 charges they billed to my Amex for the Perks program.I went on their site today to investigate the charges and saw that I could cancel the membership which I never signed onto, and did so.I appreciate any help you can give me.Business response

On 8-6-21 I placed an order #********** for a set of 3 hanging *****. On 8-27-21 I finally received the order with a correct invoice but wrong item. I received BATS instead of Ghost. I immediately called **** This should have been a simple exchange. Instead after a 45 min call I was disconnected. First the customer service rep told me I entered the wrong item #. The item # she was referring to was from a different order place on a different date, 8-16-21. I received this order weeks ago. Then she told me I hadn't even received order yet, even thou I was telling her I did and it was the wrong item! Then she told me they couldn't exchange the item because it was a different price. But it is the same price, same #, just a choice between bats and ghost. I told her she obviously didn't understand and I needed to talk to someone else. She basically told me NO. She then put me on hold again and then I was disconnected. I just want the ***** my grandson ask for BEFORE Halloween!Business response

I received a gift from a family member around Christmas 2020 from **** Since then, I have been receiving overdue balance statements saying I owe $121.43 for account number *****************. They are threatening to send me to collections for something I am not responsible for. I have NEVER signed up for anything with this company and do not owe them a *****. If they are owed anything, they need to go after whoever signed up and not me. They are trying to charge me for someone else's ****. This is an illegal tactic and I demand they remove this fake **** and stop harassing me. I have called to speak to customer service and was actually YELLED at over the phone. Again, I have NEVER purchased anything from this company. I have NEVER signed a contract or anything similar for this company.Business response

I ordered a Cover for my son's recliner chair. He didn't want to use it . I contacted *** and told the agent I needed to return an item. I received a letter dated 6/21/21, with instructions on how to return the item, along with a shipping label. I packaged it up as directed, placed a copy of the letter inside the package and mailed it at the *********** in the ***** zone.I paid for this purchase through PayPal. I have contacted *** by phone 3 times since July, getting absolutely no where. The one thing I forgot to do was write down the Tracking #. The agent keeps asking for the Tracking #, I keep telling them I forgot to write it down. The letter with the details is inside the box, so whoever opened the box would have seen it. The cost was $34.99 and the form said returned items could be subject to a $7.99 return fee, which would be deducted from the original cost. I have shopped with *** for over 30 years and this is the first bad experience I have ever had with them.Business response
