  In 2016, we purchased blinds along with a 10-year accident protection plan that guaranteed free replacements if anything went wrong. I contacted the company in May to request replacements under this plan. Initially, they assured us that replacements would be sent promptly and asked us to choose a matching color since our original model was no longer available. After selecting from the samples provided, we were told the blinds would be ordered and delivered as soon as possible. However, we then encountered several issues. First, the company informed us that they could not replace the blinds because the exact model was no longer manufactured. After further discussions and waiting several days, they reversed their decision and confirmed that the order would proceed. I received an email stating that the purchase order had been sent. Subsequently, I was contacted again and informed that the management had decided not to replace the one set of blinds out of the 20 we had purchased and covered under the protection plan. They then requested that I pay for the blinds upfront, promising to reimburse me later. This arrangement seemed unreasonable, as it is unclear why I should pay for the blinds when the company is responsible for manufacturing them. Additionally, their inconsistent communication and decision-making have eroded my trust in their commitment to honoring the protection plan. I am seeking a resolution where the company stands by their original promise and replaces the blinds as per the terms of the accident protection plan.

  We apologize for any confusion or misunderstanding regarding Mr. ******* order. When Mr. ***** contacted us in June, we reviewed several options with him. While we initially requested payment for the order, we also clarified that the amount would be credited the same day. This approach was taken to ensure that warranties could be applied to the replacement items, as we no longer carried his original product.
  Additionally, Mr. ***** received an upgraded product. Under normal circumstances, we would request the customer to pay the price difference. However, in this case, we waived that requirement. Since our last communication with Mr. ***** on June 25th, we have not received any further correspondence from him.
  We sincerely apologize for the back-and-forth and any inconvenience caused. We have since reached out to Mr. *****, and he is now working directly with a manager to resolve the matter.

  Ordered Zebra light filtering shades from Blindster.com on 09-22-2024 with inside mounts. Paid $2185.58. For inside mounts they are supposed to do a 1/4 inch cut but they didnt do it. Sent a picture showing the same but they are saying I have to pay another $1000 to have them remade even though its their mistake. All we want is shades that fit. This has been going for almost 2 months with no resolution so reaching out to you guys as last resort. Thanks for your help. M *****

  Thank you for sharing your concerns, Mr. *****. We understand the frustration caused by the measuring issues on your order and appreciate the opportunity to address them.
  Throughout our discussions, we provided guidance on proper measuring techniques for your project. After speaking with you by phone, we discovered that a laser tape measure and incorrect measuring instructions had been used initially. We clarified the correct method, and you were able to re-measure for the project.
  To resolve the issue, we offered you a significantly discounted rate—beyond our usual policies—to remake the entire order with the new measurements. You accepted the offer, and the remakes have since been completed to your satisfaction.
  We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this situation may have caused and are pleased that we could work together to resolve your concerns. If there is anything further we can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

  My shade order was not delivered to my address. I contacted Blindster to request a refund or replacement shade. For several weeks their Customer Service representative has been giving me the run around suggesting that I “look around in the neighborhood” for my package. I advised Blindster that my contract was for delivery to my address and that Blindster or FedEx is liable for the failure, not me. I intend to file a complaint with the Attorney General.

  We sincerely apologize for the issues with Ms. ******* order. After thorough investigation, we confirmed that the order did not reach her doorstep. As a result, we promptly issued a full refund and contacted Ms. ***** to inform her of the resolution. We deeply regret the inconvenience this has caused and appreciate her understanding.

  September 13, 2023 I helped my Deaf/Blind client ordering some blinds for her kitchen window and door. At the time we used the online service to ask questions and it did not seem like the client would need the "Door Brackets". Recently the client complained that the shade was making a lot of noise when closing the door. Upon inspection I noticed the bottom of the shade was hitting the wood of the door and had made some noticable dents and scratches. I called Blindsters **************** for help and the firt woman I spoke with sounded like she did not understand what I was talking about and was very rude. I was not asking for anything FREE I was just wanting a part number and a price so that I could order what we needed to correct the problem. Another call and then numerous eMail messages and I still have not been able to correct this situation. Now it is seeming to be that nobody wants to deal with the Deaf/Blind person and they just keep refusing to help me because my name is not on the order. However, I have eMails from the original order showing that I was the person that Blindster was in communication with. I simply want to purchase the "door brackets" so that this problem can be fixed. I have eMail communications between Blindster and myself showing their poor customer service and how this simple request has become escallated to the point of my filing with the *********************** client, I believe, is also filing a grievence with the State of Texas in regard to unfair treatment by a company when dealing with the Deaf or ********************* a law that was put in place in the 1970s to protect the disabled from this exact type of treatment.

  We do apologize for any misunderstanding on our part. We were not aware that the client in question had an accessibility issue and yes our policy is to only communicate with the owner of the product due to fraud. We were made aware of the accessibility issue after Mr. ********* filed this complaint. We have since given a discount on the order and sent out the hold downs to the customer for the order. We have resolved the issue with the customer by communicating with ************ who communicated with us on behalf of our customer.

  We placed two orders for shutters and one order for blinds. First, the shutters. They are defective. After over 40 hours of back and forth with Blinder's terrible support staff, we have determined that the shutter tension is too tight (on most of my shutters.) Their solution was to ship some clearview connecting rods and some instructions on how to reduce the tension. This is a very tedious process that takes around 2 hours per shutter and does not entirely fix the problem. I have asked for the shutters to be remade and they refused. Secondly, the blinds. The blinds are not as described. They have very ugly plastic pieces on the sides which are not shown on the picture. I paid for an upgrade to get a fabric covered fascia but the sides are not covered. They look ugly. Blindter's solution is to have me take them to a local charity store and get a donation receipt. I told them I am not spending any more time playing their games. I am sick of dealing with these amateurs and I want a full refund, or there will be credit card disputes and civil suits to recover my expenses for the full amount of the transactions.

  We sincerely regret any inconvenience Mr. ***** has experienced with our products, and we want to assure you that we have dedicated considerable time and effort to resolve his issues. We value our customers, and it is always our goal to provide satisfactory solutions.
  Upon the initial occurrence of the shutter issue, we offered Mr. ***** the option to remake the shutters, which he declined, seeking an immediate solution instead. Subsequently, we engaged in troubleshooting efforts based on Mr. ******* advice. Despite our attempts, we did not receive any communication from him for an entire month.
  Later, Mr. ***** raised an unrelated issue with his roller shades, specifically regarding the plastic endcaps for an outside mount. We promptly addressed this concern by issuing a refund for the problematic shade, even though clear images of the endcaps are available on our website. Mr. *****, however, sought a full refund and declined our request for a donation receipt.
  Regarding the shutters, Mr. ***** reported that troubleshooting was unsuccessful, but when we requested current images to better understand the extent of the issue, he refused to provide them. We believe accurate images are crucial for identifying defects and proceeding with any necessary remakes.
  Mr. ***** has three orders with us:
  June 2023 order - Total $1,732.55 Refunded $100 in July, remaining balance $1,632.55
  July 5th order - Total $5,234.02 Refunded $530 due to issues, remaining balance $4,705.02
  November order - Total $1,017.00 (solar shades) Refunded $133.48 and a full refund of $883.52, totaling $1,017.00
  In light of the ongoing challenges and in an effort to address Mr. ******* concerns, we issued full refunds for all three orders. The November order refund was processed back to Mr. ******* credit card, while the remaining $6,336.57 was sent to him via check.
  We acknowledge that the resolution process has been challenging due to incomplete information and a lack of cooperation in providing current images. Our policies clearly state the importance of photo evidence in addressing issues, and we appreciate that we have gone beyond our policies by offering significant refunds.
  We sincerely apologize for any frustration Mr. ***** has experienced, and we regret that the products did not meet his expectations. We remain committed to customer satisfaction and will continue to address concerns to the best of our ability.
  Thank you for your attention to this matter.

  This response is typical of the gaslighting and fraud that Blindster perpetrates on its customers.

  1) They claim they offered to remake my shutters.  This is a bald-faced LIE.  Had they offered to remake my shutters I would have accepted it.  The shutters they sent are DEFECTIVE yet some how they are blaming me for their defective products!  Ridiculous!
  

  2) They claim they have sent me a refund check.  This is a LIE.  I have not received any refund check at all.  I sent an email yesterday and another email today asking when and where the refund check was sent and what the tracking number on it is.  Of course, they have not responded.  They have NOT issued a refund check.  If they are claiming I have a refund check from them, then I would love to see the cleared check from their bank.  Of course, they cannot provide it because they have not issued a refund check.
  

  Blindster has proven that all they are capable of doing is perpetrating financial fraud on their customers.
  

  Thank you BBB for shining a light and helping to bring these criminals to justice.

  We understand Mr. ******* frustration and want to assure you that every phone call and email from him has been thoroughly reviewed by our team at Blindster. We have made every effort to assist him with his order, and we want to clarify a few points for a better understanding of the situation.

  Firstly, we did not require Mr. ***** to provide evidence of product disposal, and the items in question are still in his possession. No further action has been requested from him in this regard.
  Mr. ***** reached out to us recently, and we promptly responded during our business hours. We informed him that the reimbursement check was printed on the 18th, with our commitment to completing the process during the week of the 17th. We acknowledge the delay in sending the check, and we would like to highlight that it was dispatched via standard mail.

  Due to the ongoing nationwide shortage with USPS, we have no control over the delivery timeframe once the check is in transit. We understand the inconvenience this may cause, and we want to assure Mr. ***** that we are committed to resolving the matter promptly.

  While we are willing to provide proof of the cleared check, it is important to note that Mr. ***** needs to cash the check for it to clear on our end. We apologize for any confusion in this matter.
  To address the ongoing concern, we have advised Mr. ***** to notify us by the end of the day on February 5th if the check has not arrived. In such a case, we will promptly cancel the existing check and issue a replacement.

  We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding as we work towards a resolution. If you require any additional information or clarification, please feel free to contact us.

  They claim I haven't sent any photos.  I have sent many of photos of the shutters and even videos!  Here are the links to the videos!  The photos are all directly embedded in the hundreds of emails that I have with them.

  We resent a check overnight mail to Mr. ***** after seeing that our original check never made it. We also have confirmation that the new check has been cashed and his refund was received as of 2/9. At this point there is nothing further we can do to assist him with the product due to it being fully refunded on our end. Attached is the record of the check being cashed.

  Unfortunately, Blindster waited 7 months to provide me with a refund, wasting several hundred hours of my time in the process while attempting to skirt their responsibilities and honor their sales contract.  We have already filed a lawsuit to recover the actual costs we incurred.  The law suit also includes a punitive demand totaling $2.25MM.  We did give them plenty of warning, but they kept throwing up smoke screens and claiming we hadn't sent them proof that their shutters and blinds were defective, which of course I had (multiple videos, photos and hundreds of emails and phone calls.)

  I purchased top down, bottom up cellular shade products in 2015 under PO#*******. These shades came with a limited lifetime warranty for the hardware and a 5yr warranty for the shade material and operating cords. This Summer the shade springs and spring mounting hardware mechanisms began failing. I ordered and paid for new shades before the failed shades were removed from their mountings as we needed the privacy the failed shades were partially providing. I contacted customer service regarding the lifetime warranty after I discovered the failed parts clearly were components covered by the lifetime part of the supplied warranty. My claim was denied even after I supplied numerous photos of the failed parts and also a copy of their printed lifetime warranty that applied to the failures and was supplied with the shades. I have had to purchase new shades from Blindster to cover the windows for privacy and also so we would have a match to the still operating older shades. At this time I believe Blindster is choosing not to honor their warranty as it applies to the failed parts under a claim that the blinds conform to uncited industry standards. As an engineer I am unable to locate any industry standards that apply to the failed products and I continue to claim that my shades should be replaced at no charge under warranty. I sent my claim information to the company leadership, Mr Kyle Cox, via certified mail on Oct. 12 this year and have received no response so I am contacting the BBB for help in resolving this problem.

  Business Response

  Date: 11/28/2023

  We are sincerely sorry for the issues Mr.****** has had with his order. Attached is the warranty that Mr.****** agreed to at the time of ordering. At the time that Mr.****** ordered he also had the option to apply or added the Accident protection plan that would cover his products further. I we also would like to address that Mr.****** ordered in 2015 and it is now 2023 he has had these shades in his home and in constant use for 8 years. We do stat that normal wear and tear is not covered under our warranty. We do understand Mr.******** frustration on this matter and I have refunded back his order that he purchased however because we are refunding the order we do not cover no charge remakes under warranty you get a one time remake on our products if you did not purchase our extended warranty. The refund has been issues in the amount of 392.17. Order ******* total amount refunded 287.54, Order ******* total amount refunded 113.26. If Mr. ****** does not agree with this resolution please have him contact us directly. We apologize for the delay and the issues on the order.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me.  
  
  I again find that the original lifetime warranty that I received with the original shades does apply without any additional expense being required.  The document does exclude the soft materials after a five year term but does not exclude the hardware.  The hardware components failed and rendered the shades unusable.  It should be noted that the materials and design of the operating hardware have been redesigned and the replacement shades should be more durable.  Also, it should be noted that the Limited Lifetime Warranty is no longer included with the replacement shades. Should Blindster wish to have additional photos of the failed shades and the warranty document I will be happy to sent them.

  We purchase 4 window shades from this company, which were advertised with a lifetime warranty. These shades have had numerous problems over the past 3 years and now we have yet another one that has broken. When I reached out to the company to enquire about a replacement, they told me my warranty had expired. When I told them I had a lifetime warranty, they said that the manufacturers warranty is over and I did not purchase something called a "lifetime upgrade guarantee" which was not offered to me at the time of purchase nor required to receive the lifetime warranty. I replied back with the proof of lifetime warranty on Aug 30, 2023 and the company has not responded again since, despite being prompt with their prior replies.

  We do apologize that the customer is having an issue with one of their 2020 shades. Since the complaint has been filed the customers shade was remade. However the the Limited Lifetime warranty is just that limited and the same line item and same shades keep breaking. There are a quantity of 4 of the shades in the same size on this order and we have now remade each shade at least once and now another shade a second time. Each shade is allowed a remake one per a an item that we will cover under the warranty after that we do ask that the customer at least pay shipping. In this case we did remake it at no cost to the customer but the order does not qualify for any further remakes. These shades do not commonly break but there can be other factors that may not be thought about as in leaning over any furniture to operate them or moving the shade up and down at an angle can cause the shade cording to break. We do understand the customers frustration and we did remake it for them this one time as a courtesy. We apologize for any delay in that process while trying to get to the bottom on the issue.

  I am not satisfied, because the defective blinds were sold with a lifetime warranty and the business is still claiming that the warranty is now expired.  There are obvious manufacturing defects with these shades.  As the business has stated, all of the original shades have broken.  This is despite being used in accordance with the instructions they provide.  Up until this most recent issue, the business has been willing to replace the defective shade with another identical shade.  But they are now saying that if future blinds are defective, as all of the original ones have been, they will no longer replace them.

  The issues experienced with these blinds are bad enough and consistent enough to warrant a complete recall of the items, however Blindster has refused to do this and is now attempting to pass the liability on the the end user, despite having sold the blinds with a "Lifetime" warranty (which they have now changed to only a 2-year warranty). 

  I do not accept that my "Lifetime" warranty is now expired.  If that is the case, please provide a full refund so I can purchase a more reliable product from a more reputable manufacturer.

  Regards,
  Aaron P. *******

  In response to the feedback concerning the Limited Lifetime Warranty, we acknowledge that the highlighted aspect from your perspective seems to be the "Lifetime" portion of the warranty. However, it's essential to clarify that the policy clearly specified a "Limited Lifetime" warranty at the time of your order placement in 2020.
  
  Furthermore, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that the highlighted area of the policy does not explicitly state that remakes or repairs will be provided free of charge. There may be associated costs for shipping or labor when availing of these services.
  
  As per our policy, it is important to emphasize that there are certain limitations in place. Your order includes four shades, and all of them have been remade. Furthermore, we've processed two additional remakes. It's worth noting that such repeated occurrences of breakage in the same manner are unusual, given that the remakes were produced from different material batches and mechanisms. This indicates that the issue may not stem from a manufacturing defect, as we have used a variety of materials during this time. Therefore, there may be other contributing factors to the shades breaking.
  
  Our policies are transparent in their commitment to a limited lifetime warranty, which may entail associated costs. Regarding your specific situation, it's important to mention that our refund policy clearly states a 60-day window from the date of delivery to be eligible for a full refund. The purchase of your order in June 2020 falls well outside this timeframe.
  
  In light of the above, the best resolution we can offer at this time is a refund of half the amount you paid, which totals $304.53. To facilitate this, we kindly request that you reply to one of the previous emails we have sent you with the correct mailing address for the check. This ensures that the refund is sent to the accurate location.
  
  However, it's imperative to clarify that no further warranties will be extended to your order should you choose to accept this refund. If you opt not to receive the refund, your warranty will remain in effect, but please be aware that you will be responsible for any associated shipping costs.
  
  We value your decision and kindly ask you to inform us of your preference in this matter. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we are committed to resolving this issue to your satisfaction.

  I ordered 1 blind from Blindster on June6,2022, it’s now June 28,2022 and I haven’t received the blind. I have been told numerous times in the past month that it was being shipped, was even told I was upgraded to 2 day air through Fedex. The blind to this date has never been picked up by Fedex! It’s still in there building in California. They refuse to answer me now when I contact them. I really wanted the blind but I will accept a full refund so I can go elsewhere to purchase one and receive in a timely manner.

Otherwise a refund has been issued to you for the inconvenience. Again we do apologize for all the inconvenience that this has caused.
