On June 2nd I initiated a payout to go to my PayPal account. It has yet to arrive. Ive repeatedly messaged brandahare for help and continue to get a generic message. When I finally do get an actual person telling me they will look into it i provide them with the solution from PayPal. PayPal has asked for the confirmation of transfer number. I have asked this question in about 20 different emails and have had to dumb it down because they dont understand that all they need to do is provide the confirmation transfer number that PayPal generates as proof for brandshare to acknowledge they have infact initiated a transfer. Brandshare refuses to provide this number. If they would just provide it PayPal could look it up and find out where my money went. As soon as I ask this question brandshare no longer responds to my requests. Therefore Im forced to start another email and I go around in circles until a real human says they will look into it. Once I tell them what I need I get nothing but silence. I would like my payout please. One of their responses is that they can see it failed and that I should contact PayPal. I have contacted PayPal. They want the confirmation numberBusiness response

Company charged me twice. I reached out to be refunded and it took 2 weeks for a response saying they wouldn't refund me. I was fine with that until they sent my products to the incorrect address. I reached out and it took 10 days for a response I which I was told they would not reship unless I paid for the box again. They are crooks and provide below average customer service.Customer response

I have been a subscriber of ******* Beauty Box for a while and in April 2023 they took the money for the box out of my account and shipped it to an old address. The box was sent back to them by ***** I tried contacting Brandshare and they only allow contact through email. I tried supplying them with the correct address so they could reship the box i paid for or issue me a refund. They kept making me supply repetitive details and the tracking number etc all through April and May. Then they shipped a replacement box to the same address which is no longer my address and claim it was received. I did not receive it because it is no longer my address. I emailed them again and now we are in June they shipped another replacement Spring box and charged my card for a Summer box as well and shipped both to the same old address as before because they refuse to acknowledge my current address. Now today they claim they have cancelled my subscription and are still not shipping me the 2 boxes I paid for to my current address and they refuse to give me a refund since I won't receive them once again because I do not live at that old address anymore. They refuse to listen to a word I am saying through email and do not have a phone number that will allow me to speak to a human being. At this point I consider what they are doing stealing and would like my money returned to me immediately for both the boxes I paid for but never received.Business response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:[Your Answer Here]
I have contacted Brandshare several times and updated my address. They kept sending boxes to the wrong location. Their customer service is ridiculous and most likely a bot and never a real human being. I will never repay for 2 boxes I already paid for and demand a refund or the boxes sent to my new address. I contacted the BBB and responded to the first email so I do not understand why you didn't receive that communication. I have emails of everything that has been said to Brandshare including when I asked them to change my address back in March before the April ****** box lwas even sent out to me. They never changed the adress then when it was sent back to them by the post office and they never refunded me . I contacted them and they sent another box to my old address and took another payment out of my bank account for the Summer *** that was sent in June. I cobtacted them every step of the way and they disregarded it and now not only did they steal my money to resolve the matter they are claiming I would need to pay them for the same boxes again. That's absolutely absurd. I also have proof of the message i sent to the BBB when prompted and then I was told I never responded and the company Brandshare offers no resolution whatsoever and is just going to steal my money and provide me with nothing in return. I am not okay with this resolution and demand a refund or replacement spring and summer boxes sent to my current address which i supplied them with several times and at no further cost to me because I already paid for them. I can pprovide proof of everything, if nnecessary.Just tell me where to send the proof and I will be happy to supply that for you because I am not accepting no resolution to the problem and just allowing a company to steal from me because they refuse to return my money or send me the merchandise that belongs to me by law.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:[Your Answer Here]
When Brandshare shipped the order in April for the Spring box to an old address I immediately notified them of my current address after I was told through tracking and the Mexico ** post office that the package was sent back to Brandshare. When I notified them that the package was sent back I merely received bot responses through email in return. There is no way to call and speak to a person. I kept trying to get the point across through email and then when June came they took the money out of my account for the Summer box when they had not even refunded me or sent a new Spring box to the correct address yet..so I continued to tell them they were shipping the items I PAID FOR to the wrong address with nothing in return except more computerized bot responses and I WILL STILL CONTINUE TO TELL YOU THAT YOU OWE ME A SPRING BOX AND A SUMMER BOX OR MY MONEY RETURNED TO ME FOR THE 2 BOXES I NEVER RECIEVED. YOU DO NOT GET TO KEEP MY MONEY. YOU OWE ME MY MONEY BACK OR REPLACEMENT BOXES SHIPPED TO THE CORRECT ADDRESS AND I WILL NOT SETTLE FOR LESS THAN MY ***** OR THE MONEY I PAID FOR THE ***** I NEVER RECIEVED BUT YOU ARE NOT STEALING FROM ME AND DISMISSING ANYTHING BECAUSE YOU CANT COMPREHEND THAT I PAID FOR ***** AND NOW YOU HAVE TO GIVE ME THE ***** OR THE MONEY I PAID. WHAT ABOUT SIMPLE BUSINESS BUYER/SELLER INTERACTIONS DO YOU NOT COMPREHEND?THIS IS ABSURD.

This is a publicized mistake on the part of Brandshare. They mistakenly overcharged customers by hundreds of dollars for a $6.98 beauty box. The remedy was to refund, which they did. The compensation was a $100 ******* gift card and extra beauty boxes. I have not received any compensation from them, despite numerous emails with them. My last 2 emails have gone unanswered entirely. I just would like what they promised.Business response

I was a subscriber to the Beauty Box that this entity organizes under the name ******** Beauty Box". On February 28, 2023, my bank card was charged for 100 beauty boxes instead of 1 beauty box. An overcharge of approximately $700. This negatively impacted me and my bank account. I was assured via email that I would be issued a $100 ******* gift card. Receiving no card, on 4/3/23, I inquired via the customer care email address as to the whereabouts of my gift card. I was told that it was issued and to "check my spam". I received no such gift card. I was told to provide an alternate email address, which I supplied on 4/3/23 and customer care told me that the gift card would be reissued to the alternate email. I have inquired at least weekly since 4/3/23 as to the status of the card reissue. At first customer care told me to wait longer, now they have stopped responding all together. I seek to have this issue resolved immediately. All emailed correspondence can be provided upon request. I have cancelled this subscription due to the abysmal performance of this company. I am getting the run around, which makes me feel like I have been victimized twice now.Business response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:This is the same tired response that I have received from them since 4/3. It has been almost two months now that I have been waiting on the card to be reissued. They keep blaming ******* for the delay. Why is there not a way for them to escalate the situation or issue their own gift card so that the issue can be resolved already?

Several years ago, I did subscribe to the ******* Beauty Box. This subscription was terminated in May 2019. Out of the blue, the ******* Beauty Box began sending emails in December 2022 and charged my credit card. Three years later and w/o my authorization. It may not have been too hard to swallow had I actually received the Beauty Box, but I did not. I have reached out to Brandshare for a refund and to cease and desist from using my personal credit card and other information. I have not heard anything from them. And to make matters worse, I just received an email stating they were attempting to charge my card once again for the spring box. I have other family members this happened to as well. We have had to needlessly close bank accounts and monitor everything. It's absolutely appalling.Business response

Charged for $100 boxes. Was told refund would be issued in 3-5 days. It is now 10. No refund. VERY generic responses to email. No phone number to contact them. Complete FRAUD. I'm sick of their lies about it being a glitch. Time to lawyer up.Business response

On February 28, Brandshare billed me for 100 beauty boxes totaling $746.86 order #*******. They sent out an email that day starting the money would be refunded into my account in 3-5 business days. The money they took from me still has not been refunded. I have emailed them multiple times; I have asked for someone to call me. Instead, I keep getting back generic emails. I need the money that is owed to me returned.Business response

On 2/28 at about 4:30am, I received a fraud alert on my *********** card for a charge from ****************************** for $746. I was incorrectly being charged for 100, instead of just 1, subscription box that Brandshare ships on behalf of ******** Since it was flagged as fraud, my card was immediately closed and the charge rejected by *********** on my behalf. Since this was right before the beginning of the month, I have been unable to pay bills because my card is now closed.Brandshare and ******* later issued a statement that they had mistakenly charged a group of people, like me, for 100 boxes. Their resolution for this was to offer a $100 gift card and 2 free subscription boxes. However, because my credit card flagged it as fraud and didn't allow the charge to process, Brandshare refuses to apologize or offer any kind of compensation for charging me hundreds of dollars because I "was not affected" since the charge didn't process. They refuse to recognize that my card being closed has seriously affected my life and refuse to accept any responsibility for their egregious mistake. I am attaching proof here that they tried to charge me $698 before tax for 100 boxes and of the over $746 charge that *********** flagged as fraud.Business response

We are sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue. Our best advice is for you to contact the appropriate parties (landlord or mortgage company) with detail into the incident and ask that they waive any fees as a result of funds being unavailable at the time that payment was due. We do apologize for this inconvenience.
