    My wife ordered a book from ecampus and we cannot get our money back as guaranteed on the website. When you ask the seller for a refund, as directed by the website, the seller says they sell under "Marketplace" in the app so they do not have to honor the guarantee. When you try to call customer service and automated operator says that there's no agents to take the call and hangs up. I'm definitely filing a complaint as well as this review.

    Good afternoon, All Marketplace sales are final unless there is an issue with the book itself, such are the incorrect item was sent to you, or the item is damaged. You can connect with a customer support agent by visiting our help desk at https://www.ecampus.com/help/help-desk. Thank you. -eCampus

    Scam Alert!! I rented a book for my granddaughter, and returned them at the end of the semester in the exact condition in which they were received (they were hardly used). I received a text from ECampus after they received the book back saying that the books are damage and written in and it was new I show used on the site and it had writing in a foreign language . ECampus then processed an unauthorized payment on my credit card. They also have kept my credit card on file unauthorized as I would never agree to keep a credit card on file with any company. The text also says if I want the books back that I have to pay $12 for shipping. So I was charged the original rental fee, the original shipping charge and charged full price for the books, and now they are keeping the books. I am filing a complaint with my credit card company and will try to avoid at all cost using this company for my granddaughter’s books in the future.

    Zero Stars. Scam Alert. Don’t do it. Definitely too good to be true. I was told the book I ordered, the book that was supposed to arrive yesterday per when I ordered online, the book that has not been shipped or issued to ship, cannot be canceled and a refund given. The book is clearly not on its way to me anytime soon, and the class is in full swing. I bought the book elsewhere. The website says pending “trusted supplier”, but the email from Customer Service email says “publisher”. Word consistency, people. Either way, the email also states I will be charged a 15% restocking fee and return shipping costs when I return the book (earlier than expected)..that I, hopefully, one day receive..that I no longer want from these people..that hasn’t even been shipped to me. Per the other complaints, I’ll just have to wait patiently to be told I returned a damaged book I never used and that I have to pay for it. Save yourself the hassle and headaches, rent elsewhere.

    I placed an order with this company on Monday 9-9-24 for a college book for my son. I paid $21.99 extra for fast shipping and it said I would receive an email as soon as it ships. I have tried calling and emailing Ecampus and they have not bothered to contact me at all. I need this book by Monday. Now I am very concerned after reading all the bad reviews on the BBB. They owe me $141.70.

    I paid for my book 2 weeks ago which I also paid 39.00 for express next business day shipping. My book never came, I disputed the charges and they refuse to release my funds so I could do business else where. Now I'm 3 weeks behind in the course of study I need the book for. I'll never USE THIS COMPANY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

    Good morning Michael, The title you ordered had the availability of typically ships in 3-5 business days, however, during peak season these titles can be delayed. A refund was issued on 09/14/24, at the time of your request. The refund process does take 3-5 business days, depending on the financial institution. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Thank you for shopping at eCampus

    I Purchased a book on this page, before I made the purchase I was told that book will arrive in a week, after placed the order on Aug 31,2024, now they are saying that book will arrive on sep 17th, that's insane, the worst part is that they said that you'll have access to the book online, but you have to wait until the book arrives because they send an access card, terrible experience, I will not buy again from this page.

    Good afternoon! The item that you purchased was a physical book with an access code bundle. Therefore, it had to mailed to you. The order was placed on a holiday weekend, the order was processed and shipped the following business day. According to USPS tracking 92419901296026581258256044 the item was delivered on 09/07/24. This order was considered to be delivered on time with the free shipping that was selected at checkout. Thank you for choosing eCampus.

    I rented a book July 2024…from this company ECampus.com it was in very good shape. I used this book as a reference book. I sent the rental back August 2024 in the same exact condition. The book was NOT damaged, watered damaged or even highlighted. Again, very good shape. I received an email stating the book is damaged and unusable. I have to pay for a replacement book $175.00. I’ve written and asked for proof of the damage. The only response I got back was via their chat( their only means of communication or email) that stated the damaged was verified. I was told I have to purchase the book and will be charged a $12 return book fee. I wanted to be rid of the company so I’ve agreed to pay the replacement of the book (though it was NOT damaged). I was then required to pay credit card. NO WAY! I paid my rental with Pay Pay. I’m willing to pay the book replacement with same or check. Paying with credit card is not an option at this point. This company in my opinion has been deceptive and not clear nor open an honest with the supposed/alleged damage to the book I sent back to them. Now the payment process since I can only pay via Pay Pal or check has to be sent to a supervisor. I’m paying for the replacement because I want to be free and clear of this company. I don’t agree with their practices. The book I sent back was NOT damaged at all whatsoever.

    I ordered two books, both listed as available in 3-5 business days. Nine days later, I found they had changed the availability to "not available from publisher", yet they charged me for both books on the order date and provided me no update that the books were not available, I had to contact them to cancel the order. Waste of time and money, I will never do business with them again, I'm canceling another book I also later ordered and will never get. (REFER TO FEDERAL REGULATION 435.2 Mail, Internet, or telephone order sales.)

    Scam Alert!! I rented two book for my daughter, and returned them at the end of the semester in the exact condition in which they were received (they were hardly used). I received a text from ECampus 14 days after they received the books back saying that the books are damage. 14 Days! ECampus then processed an unauthorized payment on my credit card. They also have kept my credit card on file unauthorized as I would never agree to keep a credit card on file with any company. The text also says if I want the books back that I have to pay $12 for shipping. So I was charged the original rental fee, the original shipping charge and charged full price for the books, and now they are keeping the books. I am filing a complaint with my credit card company and will try to avoid at all cost using this company for my daughters books in the future.

    DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. RUN AWAY FROM THIS SCAM COMPANY!!!! Purchased a rental from this company on January 6, 2024. Received the book in good condition, on may 1st 2024 I got an email stating that the book needed to be returned before may 31st 2024. I went to USPS and returned the book on May 2nd 2024. I received an email from ecampus on June 11th 2024 stating that they never received the book and that I was charged the full amount for the book $96.00. So I check my bank, I was charged the full price of $96.00 the day before I received the email on June 10th 2024 WITHOUT MY CONSENT! I reached out to their live chat considering they don’t have a phone number and spoke to “Wade S.” To confirm they got the book and that I wanted to be refunded. He proceeded to tell me that they received the book but it was returned damaged. He then proceeded to send me a photo of a book with water damage, but it was just a horrible photo of a book open with white pages and liquid damage. I asked to see a photo of pages with words on it to verify it was mine and he couldn’t provide that stating it was unusable and the book was “recycled.” I can confirm that the book never left my desk and was never near any liquid let alone anything spill on it. They refuse to refund me my money and state I need to file a dispute with UPS because the package was delivered undamaged. This company is the absolute worst and preys on broke college students and takes their money without consent!!!! Please please please save yourself the headache!!!
