My order number is #******* and I made a large order that I requested for shipment to a *** Access Point location that was offered as a delivery option through your website during checkout. On June 10th, the package was due for delivery but was mysteriously refused by the receiver even though I had it sent to an official *** store location. I went to the store in-person and the attendant at the store said they had no idea why the package was refused. I was asked to call *** customer service by phone, which I did when I arrived home. *** then alerted me that the package would be sent back to Mielle without offering me any other options. I was able to connect with *** and retrieve my package in-person from the local *** customer service center. The first thing I noticed when I picked up the package was the small size of the package knowing that I ordered 14 products. The box was also NOT marked fragile. When I arrived home and began unpacking, there was a strong scent emanating from the box which began to alert me that a product had likely been damaged in transit. All 14 products were heavily packaged and stacked on top of each other with minimal protective wrapping and an entire side of the inner box was covered in wasted product. 2 of the products were damaged in transit, the Mielle Pomegranate and Honey Leave-in conditioner arrived broken with the pump separated from the bottle, making it impossible to pump product out and the Mongongo Exfoliating Shampoo, which exploded, wasting half of the product, which spilled all over the other products and covered the inner box. This was likely caused by a combination of poor packing by Mielle and poor shipping by ***. I was also advised by *** that the *** Access Point offered by the Mielle website was not covered by any paid shipping fees, which caused my package to be rejected at the *** Access Point in the first place. I have followed up with Mielle **************** via email with no response back.Business Response

Placed my order on 5/22/22, my order number is *******. I have made several failed attempts to contact someone at Mielle Organics about information on the status of my order, when it will ship, and last a refund and cancellation of my order. Mielle Organics is impossible to reach; as the online chat is just a bot that doesnt help, they cant be reached by phone and emails have gone unanswered. At this time, Im seeking either all the products I ordered or a full return of my money. I have been researching and it appears others have had the same issues with Mielle Organics. People are complaining of being scammed out of their money, never receiving products, or only receiving a select few of the items they ordered. I will never do business with Mielle Organics again; not will I recommend their products to anyone due to the way this company conducts business.Business Response

I ordered from this business on 5/24/2022 due to an anniversary sale that they were having. I have yet to receive my products, along with others who have filed complaints online. The company has not responded to the consumers requests. They ignore comments or delete them on social media. This is unacceptable for a business. They state that people cant get refunds. They sent an email on 6/10 stating that there is a delay. I want my products or a refund immediatelyBusiness Response

Order #******* was placed on 5/22/2022. It's almost a month later and I've yet to receive my order, status is PAID and unfulfilled. They stated due to a sale, allow 14 business days for processing.

I placed an order with Mielle Organics on May 25, 2022 in the amount of $60.24. To this date, I have not received my products or any shipping information. I have reached out to the company multiple times and only have received canned auto responses. I requested a refund due to not receiving my products and received a response that offered 15% off future purchases. The company website states processing maximum is up to 14 business days and my order is past that ****. I would like a refund of my order as they have failed to fulfill it in a timely fashion.Business Response
