astroknight  Questionable Moderator  Tastes so good... 4187 Posts 11/99 |  Posted - Dec 5 2000 : 10:52AMI just cancelled my order from howcool.com (also known as howkewl.com). I placed my order on 12 October. Their website says that they don't charge the credit card until the item ships, but they charged mine right away. Some of the items weren't in stock but I was told they would be shipping in 4 - 6 weeks. It's 8 weeks in 2 days. I've been trying to get through to them on the phone (since I couldn't find an e-mail address) for over a week. I could nver get to a real person, so I left a message for them to call me on Friday. Then I left a message yesterday. Today I finally got a real person and cancelled the order. No questions why or anything. If I had somebody wanting to cancel the order, I'd at least want to know why! They say that they are going to call me when they get it cancelled, but I told them to e-mail me instead (as I gave them my work number and it was going to be a surprise for mrs. astro). They took it and then told me I'd get a call when my card was credited. Maybe they're better when something's in stock, but DON'T order if it's an out of stock item. They told me that they only carry one of the brands (they list about 3 different brands if I remember right) in stock. Needless to say, I'm not happy. [Link] |

| dumblonde Senior Member 2352 Posts 7/00 | Posted - Dec 8 2000 : 12:45PM I have had to do this a couple of times, and the card issuer was very easy to work with & resulted in chargebacks. You're not obligated to pay that part of the bill in question until a finding is made. A while back ( before I found this site, it had nothing to do with any affiliate here) I somehow got caught up in that scam that Luke Ford is always "reporting" on, I was being charged $24.95 a month by some vague outfit with no phone number on statement. The only thing I don't like is, the card co. wouldn't tell me who was doing it, but at least charges were reversed. As for HowCool, they say they do have an actual store, if that makes anyone feel better. But then, they advertize it as being in "Beautiful, Historic Bakersfield". Trust me, I have been to Bakersfield...these people ARE guilty of stretching the truth, at least. [Link] |
