I placed an order on April 1, 2024, and have sent 3 emails and phoned twice trying to find out when they will ship. The phone message says "Let me "try" to connect you" to voice mail, and I've left 2 messages. I now see that they may be a bogus outfit. I want a refund for the items I ordered.Initial Complaint

I placed an order for ethanol fireplace fuel on 2/18/2024 (order *********). The amount was debited from my account but I never received the fuel. I reached out via phone, customer service chat, and email numerous times and received no response from the company (and email has gotten bounced back as undeliverable). I've ordered directly from this company in the past with no issue, but would like my money back if I'm not going to receive the product.Initial Complaint

I order product from the company 2-28-2024. They charged my credit card the next day. I have yet to see the product. I've called several times only to get a recording that no one is available at this time. I've gone on their chat only to be in a constant circle of the automated questions asking the same questions over and over. I've emailed and posted questions on their site and have yet to hear back from anyone.Initial Complaint

I ordered several ethanol fireplaces plus the corresponding bio ethanol fuel from this business (via their website ********************************** on October 20th 2023. The fireplaces were shown as on back order to come in around Dec 3rd. Time went by, my order status never changed from "new" to anything else and I also didn't receive any part of the order. Unfortunately, the only contact information given on the website is a phone number (************) which started with the usual press this or that number to get to your desired section. Checking on existing orders then led to a voicemail. Checking around online I now saw that regalflame.com is (except for the pictures) basically the same website, their international shipping page even leads to that of ethanolfireplaces.com, namely *********************************************************************) I'm getting worried that some fraud is happening here.Initial Complaint

My order number is ********. Regal Flame charged our credit card for two ethanol fireplace log sets, which they continued to backorder. In recent months they stopped taking phone calls, they have not answered emails, nor responded to social media messaging. I requested a refund, or replacement/exchange for their ethanol fuel product (which they have successfully shipped before) instead. Shipping $379 of the fuel product seems to me a reasonable request. Any assistance would be appreciated.Initial Complaint
