“Customer Service is improving - good sign”

Theodore H.
10/7/23

I placed an order for two types of filters. 8 units in total. I made an error on the size for one group, which was designated as 'custom filters'. I tried to correct/cancel the order a few hours of placement. The initial response was because they were custom I could not cancel the order. After a couple of email exchanges, a hero in the Filters Fast team (Sam) was able to cancel the order, even though they had already been shipped. Thanks very satisfied customer

Top Critical Review

“Shady business methods.”

Craig C.
9/24/24

BEWARE! They do not stock all items. What they don't stock, they take your money, order the part at wholesale from a vendor and have the vendor (maybe) ship you a part. Total ebay scam tactic. My item was delayed 3 times and it's almost a month since my order. Do not believe their 3 day shipping, their website saying items are in stock, or their constant message that your order will ship "tomorrow" but tomorrow never comes. Filters Fast could not cancel my order because the order was handed off to the company who actually stocks items. Heed my warning. Very shady company. Avoid like the plague.

Purchased A/C filters, they arrived damaged, contacted FF about damage issue, no response. This was not my first purchase but will be my last!

Tip for consumers:
Don't buy from FF!

They don't list their phone # on their web site - *******458 - which means you have to go searching for it. But, don't waste your time, because no one EVER answers the phone! They say they offer a call-back option, but I wouldn't trust that to happen, either! So, I chose to PM them through Facebook. I instantly got an automated reply which still left me waiting. I texted them at 9:20 AM today, Friday, and have been waiting for a reply to my question about the amount I was refunded for an unopened, returned product. So it's 2 pm PST and I decided to try calling again. They're closed. And not just moments ago because they're located in NC, but HOURS ago! They close at 3PM EST on Fridays!
They still had over 2 hours to reply to my PM, but here I sit. Still wondering why the amounted credited back to my CC is $29 less than what I paid for the product. I know they don't refund shipping costs, but that should be a factor anyway since I covered the cost to get the item back to them rather than pay them $8 for them to provide me with a label! That's fairly outrageous, right? Could it be a restocking fee? Maybe, but $29 is a tad steep, no? So rather than crossing this item off my list and being done with FiltersNOTSOFast, I get to wait until sometime next week when they decide to get back to me. The best way to handle this would be if they could just ANSWER THE PHONE and provide me with an explanation, but that's not how they do business. And it sucks!

Tip for consumers:
If you ever need any sort of CS, don't expect to get it here.

From the business

Filters Fast's mission is to provide our customers with the best filtration shopping experience - a comprehensive catalog that is easy to navigate, the tools and education to make the right choice, and the best customer experience and support to help along the way.

Business History

In 2004, Ray Scardigno became frustrated while shopping for his refrigerator filter online.

“There were only a handful of small sites selling filters online. My refrigerator filter seemed like a common type and I didn’t want to pay the markup of the big box stores but I simply could not figure out how to buy filters online. I saw an opportunity to create a shopping experience where customers could find the filter they need fast and deliver their product for a great price!”

- Ray Scardigno, President & Founder of Filters Fast

Filters Fast has grown to be the top filtration provider online in the United States and continues to grow rapidly. Though we have expanded to sell filters to all parts of the world, Filters Fast remains a family-owned business.

We are proud of our charitable partnerships which include Wine To Water, Habitat for Humanity of the Charlotte Region, and The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Giving back to our local and global community is an integral part of our company's culture.
