“Customer for years now”

Sandra G.
1/25/24

Been a customer for about 4 years now and I will never go back to other products. Never had bad expreriences, not with the product nor customer service. For me nothing but the best for my family and this definitely is the best, completely natural product out there.

“Worst Customer Service and Company does NOT back the product”

Wendy L.
9/18/18

I have been trying to deal with customer service for 3 weeks to return a defective diffuser which was $260. All diffusers are sold as a kit for first purchase. They only offer replacements. I get a different story from each rep I speak with. I can no longer trust this company due to the awful customer service and would never represent any sales to have customers deal with their terrible customer service.

For my October 3,2019 ER, I received 2 EO that were dated a year ago when I emailed YL for harvest/ production date.
Having going back and forth with YL taking 2-3 business days to reply every time, it's been a month now since I received the order.
When I ask for replacement of those 2 EO (and request them to waive the restocking fee and shipping), YL CS replied that they can do a one time waive on the 25% restocking fee (since it's more than 1 month from order and I have opened the 2 oils) but I have to ship it back to them on my own cost and they cannot do replacement but instead provide a credit to my account.
This is so frustrating because I'm in not to make money and I buy for my own use. My monthly orders a weave over $300 and this is the $#*! I get.
No doubt, some of their oils are pretty good (but expensive), they shouldn't be shipping old dated oils and I don't care what they say that their EO don't expire because if you know chemistry, majority of the oils react with the air as soon as we open the bottles.
I have no where else to write out my frustrations because YL CS don't even bother.
I encourage everyone who buys any EO, please email for harvest/ production dates.

Owns Farms for 35 yearsWe had a retail store in New York and we stocked 16 to 18 companies. We noticed many of the doctors coming from Winthrop Hospital only using the Young Living so one day we asked why would they purchased that with the others were so much less money and they told us to contact all of the companies and ask them where they get their products and how they test their products and how long they've been in business So that is what we did Only two companies would give us all the information on the phone And we were only allowed to visit to corporate offices one of them being Young Living and the other being doTERRA Youngliving owned farms for over 26 years and doTERRA was for only 4 years. We were told by doTERRA that they absolutely dilute the Oil's that they don't need to be pure To be effective And that they don't need to own farms because they had Parker Farms But we mention to them you have no idea I have a partner farms soil is being treated before you partnered with them So we decided to go with Young Living because we know the seed to seal difference is major We also did not like how they were talking about Young Living at doTERRA Youngliving had nothing negative to say about anybody and we liked that they just stayed on the positive side So now are only use Young Living at all of our dental offices And we decided to sell the store And just focus on building the business online and through private doctor offices of our colleagues. We saw a major difference with dementia Parkinson's and Alzheimer's patients When we used to Young living before doing dental treatment

This company literally scammed me. Worst experience of my life! I bought an oil & diffuser in recommendation of a friend. My boyfriend was coughing horribly from it so I called & was told I could get my money back & be reimbursed for the shipping if I sent the products back. So I did. & then I called to see when my refund would arrive back in my checking account. The woman I spoke to told me that their policy would not abide by me getting a full refund which is what I was told. She told me they had to review the phone call of the woman who told me that & call me back. I never got a call back. I called them again the next day, asking for a supervisor. He told me the package I sent back only had the oil, not the diffuser. My shipping receipt from the post office said the package was $10.80 & it is based on weight of the contents. So this supervisor said he would check with the receiving department & call me back. Never got a call back. So I called again the next day, I asked for a supervisor again & the woman on the phone said hold on one moment, came back on the phone & said we will refund you immediately. & I asked when I would get refunded for the shipping charges I paid out of pocket. They told me to call after I faxed or emailed in the receipt. So I emailed it to them & they said they credited my account. Which is not what I was told from the beginning of all this $#*!. I was told I would be refunded for my shipping as well. They refuse to refund my shipping & said its credited to my account. I am never buying anything from this company again. This is the worst experience I have ever had. I was lied to, ignored & ripped off. DO not buy anything from this company. Its a pyramid scam.

Lamento la non trasparenza delle informazioni offerte, ti inseriscono in un programma dove in automatico si generano gli ordini mensili e se non si è attenti nel sito ti arrivano prodotti del valore di 100 eur al mese, quando nessuno ha chiesto questo.
