“I've had great customer service experiences”

Shonda T. Giblin g.

I don't understand why some people call this a scam! I've had great customer service experiences, very personable. I ordered this as a gift for my friend after her surgery and called to cancel it afterward. They did it right away with no pushy sales tactics, just wished her a speedy recovery. For those complaining about being charged again.

“Urthbox Unrpofessionalism”

Shawn Denise B.
7/15/24

Don't use Urthbox. I placed an order in the evening, realized in the am that my computer had auto inputted my previous address. I called Urthbox the next morning, but they don't open til 9am!, so I sent a chat message to have them cancel the order and the message replied they would get back to me - right! Over the weekend (they are closed) I checked Saturday and Sunday and my order was unfulfilled. Got to work Monday morning and I checked and the order said filled. I had to wait for them to open zzzzz... leave my work to call them again. They said too late, we never got your message and too late. Sa basically I spend $60 on my first box, sent to my previous address, and was told even if they reject the order, Urthbox says they cannot accept the food back. I get it, but please all of this happened because you have banker hours and your employees are not checking chat messages. I promise I am letting everyone know about why NOT to use Urthbox and that is going to cost them more than $60. I recommend Imperfect Foods. We have a good few years with them before we moved. I was just going to try something different, but guess I'll head back to Imperfect Foods! BOO Urthbox!

Received 7 items in my first box and 4 of the items expire within 30 days of the shipment. I would never order again.

It's been a week almost two and still no box. This site is a waste of time and the customer service is terrible.

We found Urth unreliable: Not concerned w. Fulfilling cust. Orders.
Our experience maybe fraudulent.

Tip for consumers:
Don’t order Quinta’s on Urth: We will not fulfill your order until Urth properly addresses our commercial issues: Unreliable vendor.

Shop direct at current-specialties.com/shop.

If I could put no stars I would.

1-I am now working with my credit card company to get the refund UrthBox claimed they would give me, I will be reporting their fraud to the Canadian Better business Bureau as well as the FDA in the United States. I have been waiting 2 months for my refund. No product. No refund.

2-Boxes arrive 1.5 months late. I assumed the boxes that arrived between the 16-22nd of each month were the box for that month and not the previous. This causes confusion when a person wants to cancel an automatic renewal. My "June" box arrived on July 22nd, my "July" box arrived on August 16th.

3-An automatic renewal for a 3 month subscription showed up on my credit card before I had received my second box of the first subscription. This happened because they send out the boxes late. I was not expecting the automatic renewal to happen so fast!

4- I called to stop the subscription renewal and was told that they were following their own automatic renewal policy of renewing if I hadn't canceled 30 days before the last box on August 1st for the September box. By then I had just received the second box and the third box hadn't even been shipped yet! Yet somehow they were able to charge me for boxes 4-6. Fine. My mistake for not noticing that the boxes arriving were a month and a half late.

5-I agreed to buy the first of the three boxes on the automatic renewal because this was their policy but I HAD TO READ THEM WORD FOR WORD THEIR OWN POLICY TWICE from their website before they would agree to refund me for the two months (boxes 5 and 6).

6-I received an email stating that I would see the refund on my credit card in the next 5 business days. No payment was received.

7-I contacted them again to let them know that I had not yet received the payment. Again they said that I would receive the payment with in 72hrs. The payment never came.
