      Answered
      I placed an order at Direct Tool Outlet on 5/21/2024. They sent an email on 5/22 stating the order was shipped. I was billed on 5/23. I contacted them after a couple weeks and they apparently placed a 2nd order on 6/13. This order was never shipped. I have contacted them several times both by email and phone. They say they have sent the order to their warehouse but I never hear anything more from them. I have contacted them several times and just get the same runaround. The original order number is **********, the second order number is **********. I have asked for a supervisor but then get disconnected.

      I tried to place an order with them but entered an incorrect street name and number. The order was refused. When I called to inquire the first person wit whom I spoke said the shipping address must match the billing address. I as to speak with a supervisor because I did not believe the answer was valid. Th supervisor told me the order was refused because the shipping address was not a deliverable address which was my error. She advised me to use another credit cad because the previous order was linked to my email address and credit card number. I reordered using a different credit card and the order was rejected. I then had a relative order the item who uses the same shipping and billing address. This order was denied. I contacted customer service and explained what had occurred and asked what store(s) had the item in stock. The person checked and discovered there were none in stock and suggested I try to order it at a later date. I asked why the orders were declined/refused instead of the website indicating it was out of sock. They had no answer but I will be checking by credit card transactions to unauthorized charges.
