First Impression Extremely Negative

So far, not so good here. We’re starting on shaky ground 😕 I was hoping to post outcome while traveling.

After reading through some posts, decided to make the 1st purchase from AD: IH, IO, and TUTH to-go’s. Given that we’ll be out of town for the week and upcoming holiday, paid for expedited shipping “FedEx Overnight Next-Business Day by 10:30AM _Fully Tracked & Insured_” which was listed as $29.95 but was actually $39.95 when billed.

Placed order, when “shipped” email arrived, it was standard shipping listed. Haven’t had any success making contact with AD support or via phone. Writing this message 20 minutes past the 10:30 AM deadline for delivery I paid for, no products.

Wouldn’t normally be an issue, sure something could be resolved, but… due to travel, this means that it will most likely sit on my porch for a week… for an additional $39.95.

Hi DynamicUno!

If you can post a ticket about this via [support@androtics.com](mailto:support@androtics.com), I’m sure they’ll find ways to iron things out. 🙂

And if you can properly introduce yourself here, I can give you your $25 intro GC and that would surely be in good use for your next order. 🙂

Welcome to PheromoneTalk! 🙂

Thank you. That was done the first day. Got an automated response from “Mickaelia” for ticket #30443.

Never received a response and even though I paid for FedEx Next Day, the USPS 2 Day tracking number I received didn’t have any tracking information. So, I’m still not sure how to get any support. It hasn’t been a very good first impression at all. I’ll be leaving shortly and the service I paid for wasn’t met.

I’m also not sure how to properly introduce myself. I wasn’t really all that interested in a discount, just wanted to purchase products to try.

Nope. Received 2 automated responses to 2 support requests, have not heard a single thing from anyone at Androtics. According to USPS, it looks like there was a shipment created and entered in their system, but it’s still in Los Angeles (since 5/23).

I haven’t heard from any of their people. I haven’t received an update. This is extremely shady as the entire basis of successful ecommerce is communication and customer service.

The only thing I know is, they have my money, for certain. At this point I’m almost questioning even this forum since the same company runs it.

Also, as an FYI, after some research, I went to Love-Scents and HAX Pheros and purchased three comparable products… they all arrived the next day before departure, as promised, as if paid for.

Good grief…
