As you can see, I bought clothes at a sale price. Added up to 61.12. What they did was add the merchandise retail and then there was no discount even when I had a discount code. I contacted customer service but their English is not good and they either don’t understand or pretend not to understand. I also filed a complaint with PayPal.

Purchased the gloves as advertised, received a confirmation email that my order was being "processed for shipment" on 11/21/22, made several attempts to email for follow-up information. I emailed because there is no contact information that was available on the very limited site. Now its been several email and well over a month of waiting with no updates and no response.

I saw an ad on my YouTube homepage for an item that I thought would make a nice Xmas gift. The website was nberd.com but the logo at the top read NicetyBar. I stupidly ignored how strange that was and bought it through PayPal, which I falsely assumed would provide recourse if I encountered any problems, and it also gave me a false sense of security as I didn’t think PayPal would allow scammers to use their service. Peak Technology Limited was the name of the business that took my money so yet another mismatched name. I checked on the status of my order as it was getting close to Christmas and I had ordered it awhile ago and discovered the order was cancelled by the seller. I emailed them several times using any customer support email address I could find for them and a few days with no response led me to order the same item through Amazon much cheaper and report a problem through Paypal. The next day they got in contact saying my item was “in transit” and to “be patient” with them. I said I already ordered a replacement and according to their own tracking info my item was actually not in transit, the shipping label had just been created. So I request a refund, send the screenshots they ask for as proof of purchase to issue my money back, and then I receive an email dismissing my wish to go forth with their initial cancellation and my refund and simply insisting the item is in transit and I must be patient. Now that I’ve done some research on Peak Technology Limited I am of the opinion it is a scam and I will never receive the refund.

I ordered two sweatshirts from the website. i received them fairyl quick. The fit was a little off and they were not good quailty. The material was cheaply made and the zipper wasn't zipping smoothly, was getting stuck and it didn't zipper all the way in the hood becuase it was tight. I emailed the day that i recieved it that i wanted to return them. Their website said can return within 45 days if not satified or if defected. They responded 2 days later (monday) asking for pictures. I sent them of it being worn to show size and not zipper all the way up issue but they wanted product only so i sent them a picture of both hoodies alone. They responded that they look like fine, they sent the size i requested and to keep the product. this went back and forth for 4 days, them not wanting to give me a refund even after i sent them a picture of their return policy and even said i will pay shipping, i just wanted my money back. The last email they said i can ship it back but it was to China. There is nowhere on that website stating that the website was based in China. Their facebook page listed a NY address which i looked up on USPS and it came back as invalid. The transaction statement on my bank account says London.

Fashion ads appeared when I searched for a raincoat. I ordered one 12/12/22. It hasn't arrived the phone number says to leave a message. This same coat appears at other supposed fashion places. I think they are all scams.

They offer products by third party sellers. Run like amazon & ebay, but for games. They first charge your account, hold your money, then start asking you for verification. Initial verification involves a photo of your card, with some numbers blocked out, then a photo of your passport/drivers license and/or other id and tax identification number. Then even after you submit those, they'll start asking for additional documents like water bill, bank statements, etc and other personal information. All the while holding your money. Even after canceling the order, the refund is not coming through and their responses are extremely slow as if they're stalling for time.

When looking for clothes, the website comes up asking for your email address and continues to email clothes until you buy something from the webpage. There is no way to contact them but by email and there is no customer service but by email. After they get your money, they don’t ship the product. When you contact them by email, they give you the run around by asking a million question and acting confused. When you ask for a refund, then they sent the product and they do not know why you never received it. You will not get your money or the product. NEVER AGAIN.

On Oct 15, I ordered a Le Creuset Teakettle thru Bozzhi.com, but was confirmed (by email); it was confirmed, first by luckygagaga llc, conf. receipt #1908-6118 order 534622 , then listing contact information for a 3rd company: penny.us.com. Item promised 5-15 business days from order. It is now 60 days since order. Tracking link says package is still in transit. I couldn't understand why a product made in France was being shipped from Guangzhou, China. Tracking number: *************   Tracking link: https://www.17track.net/en

I can’t imagine why a teakettle made in France would be coming from China. I emailed penny.us.com Nov 7, 13, then Bozzhi.com, but no reply from either. When I checked the penny.us website today, it was up for sale.

The company advertised themselves as selling products for active play for children and adults via Instagram. They have celebrities on their commercials promoting the sale of this fun workout equipment. The website boxbollen.com sold their product with a 3 day shipping policy. They accepted $70 and I have yet to receive the product. There is no customer service phone number to call. I have emailed their “help line” at least 20 times and also went to the Instagram page and messaged the seller. A lot of other people posted comments that they are having the same problem and think the company is a scam. It’s been over two weeks and there is no word on where the product is nor if I can get my money back. Please help. My order # is 1***** if I’m case you are able to help me.

I purchased two articles of clothing from Moxidress. I found their advertisement on Facebook.

It has been a month since I ordered the merchandise with zero success in obtaining the items ordered. I have emailed 7 different times and even reached out via facebook messenger with no response. I have requested a refund since the items never came, and again no response. This is terrible for the consumer, and they should be stopped.

They sent me a pair of boots I ordered a size 8.5 they sent me size 5. I emailed them back and asked them if they could send me a shipping label so I can refund the boots and then receive my refund. They wrote back stating it is not in their policy to send a shipping label. They want me to send the boots back and then they will send a refund. I don’t trust sending them all the way back to China, which could cost me a lot of money, and how am I to trust they will refund my money? I was wondering if you could do a search to see if they are a legitimate company. If not I want to file a complaint they are scammers and to let others know. There is nowhere to put a review on their website.

I needed to order my son a new Birth certificate I thought I was on the web site for Health Department searching Vital Records. The site asked all the questions as if it was ok but once I paid and looked at my debit card, I did not pay NY or the Health department I paid Livingproofnow.com and when I looked it up online there was a scam involved. I than tried to go back to the web site and contact them it was not showing any affiliation
