While this was part of Mint & Lilys standard protocol to investigate and address product issues by forwarding evidence to the production team, the customer was understandably frustrated by this request.
Mint & Lily stands by its product quality guarantees and intended to use the customer's report to ensure ongoing improvements and maintain high standards in craftsmanship. Recognizing the dissatisfaction with the experience, the team offered resolution options, such as make-good discounts, although did not initially receive a response to this proposition. The offer for discounts remains open to the customer if further evidence can be provided, as this supports the investigation and quality assurance process. Maeanwhile we are committed to addressing the issue.Customer Answer

I purchased 4 rings on February 7th. I received the complete order on February 27th. On March 4th, I contacted the company and stated that two of the rings had already faded and lost multiple stones. Their customer service was great and provided me with a gift card to replace the rings.A week later, March 10th, the additional two rings had tarnished and were no longer gold. I emailed the company and stated that I would like to return all of my rings, to include the replacements that as of March 10th had not delivered yet.I was told I needed to go online and start the returns process and then I would get my refund. However, the website says that I am outside my return window. I emailed letting them know that it was stating such, and I have been getting the run around since. They keep asking me if a gift card will suffice, but I do not want their product. I have no desire to purchase or own anything from them when they tarnish within a week of receiving ********, it appears that they are ignoring my emails, and will not respond to my requests.I would just like to send the rings back, to include the unopened replacements and receive my monies back.Business Response

We have reviewed the situation and Mint & Lily clarified that a gift card, equivalent to the original order's full value, had already been issued as compensation. As such, processing a further monetary refund fell outside the company's policy constraints. Nonetheless, Mint & Lily remains open to ongoing dialogue with the customer to potentially explore other solutions that could resolve their concern satisfactorily.Customer Answer

I placed an order on 3/15 and paid expedited shipping that said it would arrive on 3/18. I didnt get the order on time and asked for a refund. The company refused multiple times to give me a refund and kept coming up with excuses. I followed up again on Tuesday because they said management was going to look into it and never did. After 24 hours later total of more than 48 hrs trying to resolved they said they have ship the item and cant get it back. I tried different ways to work with them get my refund but they flat out said no although they admitted they fail to honor the delivery date. They had time to get the item back from and process refund but they refused. I included emails so you can seeBusiness Response

I purchased seven pieces of jewelry from Mint & Lily on 2/23/25 for $145.44. I received an email confirming shipment with five different tracking numbers. However, I never received my order, and the tracking information showed deliveries to locations far from my homemostly in other states.When I contacted Mint & Lily, they initially issued a credit for me to repurchase the items, but the credit failed and did not even cover the full cost of my original order. After following up, I was then told that the original tracking information was incorrect and that I would receive updated tracking soon.After several days with no updates, I reached out again and requested a refund. A week and multiple follow-up emails later, the company has stopped responding altogether. There is no contact information other than email, and it appears that their responses are automated, likely generated by AI.Business Response

Ordered bracelets from mint&lily on 12/24/2024 and received on 1/6/25. I did not like the bracelets (did not look as pictured on website to me) and waited for the Christmas rush to be over, and requested a return label in mid January online to process a return. After a few weeks did not hear hear back from them so sent email on 1/28/25. They replied offering gift card which I did not want. Again requested a return label and refund of $29.40 (I originally paid $49.08 which included tax and shipping but cost of bracelets alone was $39.20, and their website stated there would be a 25% restocking fee.) Then they said I was beyond 30 day return window. Had postal confirmation of delivery which showed within date of return policy so emailed again providing this information and they replied, agreeing it was within return policy and said they would escalate to management to provide the return label, but did not. I saw an address on their website of ****************************************************************************** so tried to return bracelets to that address via **** Priority Mail at cost of $10.85. Package was returned to me. I emailed again and they tried to offer gift card again, which I refused. Have emailed numerous times and they apologize but will not provide return label, even though they said they would. Now requesting refund of $40.25 (refund price plus my priority postage) as I would not have sent there if they provided the return label requested to begin with. Tried to call but cannot find phone number for customer service and multiple auto engineered emails say same thing but no resolution. I think they intentionally try to wear down people so they just give up but I feel their business practice is poor and also not truthful because returns dont seem to be allowed, even though their stated policies say otherwise.Business Response

The issue was revisited by Mint & Lily, who explained that the customer reached out past the stipulated ****** return period for processing returns, based on their return policy. Despite this, evidence provided by the customer showed that the return request might have been within the policy window, leading to an acknowledgment and an attempt to escalate the issue to management. Unfortunately, the return label was not eventually provided, prompting the customer to attempt a return to an address found online, incurring additional shipping costs.
Mint & Lily communicated with the customer clarify the return policy and offered compensation as a goodwill gesture in place of a return, which was not accepted. Mint & Lily has recorded this situation and apologized for the inconvenience caused, reiterating readiness to provide acceptable resolutions for the customer. Mint & Lily remains open to discussing compensatory solutions if the customer wishes to proceed with those options.Customer Answer

I placed an order on Feb 6 for a birthstone bracelet (March). When it arrived it was the incorrect birthstone. I contacted the business via ******** Messenger. They issued a credit so I could re order the bracelet. I ordered again and paid for shipping. When I received the second order, it was also incorrect, I contacted Mint & Lily immediately. They acknowledged the second error, apologized, offered me another credit plus $50 and I asked to simply be refunded and now they are unresponsive to emails and messages. I have a copy of all messaged but the size limit is preventing me from attaching to this form.Business Response

This company is refusing to abide by their refund policy. They are issuing me a gift card to use rather than issuing me a refund their policy states and as I have requested. I have had numerous dealings with them and I am getting nowhere.Business Response
