On 9/5/2023 I purchased a 55 inch ******* TV advertised with a game controller and voucher. I received the the tv and controller with voucher. It turns out the tv was defective and I was instructed to return it. I was to let QVC know when it was accepted by postage, I did but explained I kept the controller and voucher because they arrived in separate packages. I was told the controller and voucher would have to be returned since it was a package deal. The next day I returned the package and as instructed notified QVC of the postage acceptance. The new tv arrived within record time. I waited for the return of the controller and voucher. I called and called and each customer rep would look it up and tell me that delivery was requested. My last call in November 2023 was to let QVC know that I had not received my items and I would not be doing anymore business with them until this problem was rectified. As always the rep was sympathetic and promised to relay my message. My last call was this month, February 2024. I informed the rep of my many calls with different reps with no satisfaction and I didn't expect any with her. I explained my only resolution was to contact BBB. She promised she would send my request up the chain of command. I thanked her and hung up. QVC has been my shopping place for a long time and I enjoyed the experience. But I really wanted to share that controller with my grandchildren. It was important to me. At this time I am not sure exactly the amount I paid but it was very close to the amount I quotedBusiness Response

Order Number : #********** I am writing to express my deep disappointment and frustration regarding the online customer service experience I recently had with your company, as well as the subsequent non delivery of a package. I placed an order through your website, with the understanding that the estimated delivery time was before Christmas. As the recipient of this package was eagerly waiting for it to be delivered for the holidays, it was imperative that it arrived. However, it deeply concerns me to inform you that the package did not reach its destination, days after Christmas had passed. This non delivery not only inconvenienced the recipient but also dampened the joy and excitement that should have accompanied the gift during the holiday season. Adding to my disappointment, the lack of satisfactory online customer service during this entire ordeal further amplified my frustration. I made several attempts to seek clarification about the status of my order, but emails went unanswered and phone calls were met with long waiting times or disconnections. The lack of prompt and reliable assistance was both disheartening and unacceptable. As a loyal customer who has previously had positive experiences with your company, I believe it is crucial for you to be aware of this incident and its impact on customer satisfaction. I expect a certain level of service and reliability when placing online orders, particularly during the holiday season when timely deliveries are of utmost importance.I trust that you will take this matter seriously and address my concerns promptly. I believe in the importance of maintaining a strong relationship with valued customers like myself, and I hope this situation can be resolved amicably.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: I never received the product, and there was no signature for the product that it was delivered. The office was never notified and I was told from the office of the president to reverse the charges in email to reopen the case. I also opened a case with the deliverer and they have informed me QVC did not corporate which is why we are at a stand still. I have already reversed the charges and am requesting a refund of the two installment payments.thanksm

#********** from QVC.com "Hailo OneStep folding steel step ladder" I received the wrong product, it it a huge latter type item that I can barely lift. I contacted them multiple times to tell them I need to be refunded because it's the wrong item and I just ordered the product I should have been sent from a more helpful website. They wanted me to go to the post office, which I can't do because what I was sent was so big it won't fit in a car. They said they would send someone to pick it up, I said okay but the box was ripped when I opened it so I don't have a box. They are saying I need to get a return label and box and package myself. I am not doing that, they need to return me and feel free to pick the item up. They sent the wrong item, this has happened to me with other companies and they automatically refund you and let you keep the product. I don't want this latter, I hav no use for it but I don't drive and I am not going to uber to a shipping place to get supplies and package it up when they sen the wrong item! this is such disgusting way to treat customers, I have talked to 4 different customer services reps and they all act like I did something wrong, I was sent the wrong item, they need to fix it! I want refunded for the shipping price I paid too since I shouldn't pay for something I didn't order.Business Response

I purchased a computer from them in 2020 and Square Trade coverage too. I got the wrong computer, sent it back and ordered a new one. Two years later I contacted them and told them the hinge broke off the computer. Square Trade said I did not have coverage on the computer. I asked them if they can refund the money to me and they refunded it to a credit card that my husband had but he passed away. They should have verified the credit card account before going ahead with the refund. I would like a refund for the computer and Square Trade.Business Response
