Mineral Science Purity Makeup Internet Internet

Before falling for the "trial" scam please see the e-mail chain below. I never received the product and could not get any help from the customer service department. Lucky for me, my bank is very customer service oriented so when I called, they automatically reversed the charge. After the last e-mail that I sent, all contact stopped - the date was 11/14/07.

What part of "it was not delivered to my condo" do you not understand? You people are absolutely unbelievable! If it was delivered to me as the tracking states, I would like to knows who's signature is on the delivery receipt. I live in a complex that has approximately 30 buildings and items are sometimes delivered to the wrong building.
I believe that it is your responsibility to file a lost article form with whatever company you used to ship the item. But, do as you wish. I have already contacted my bank and started the process to dispute the charge. Today I will be posting this chain of emails on the internet and contacting the Better Business Bureau.
I am done trying to communicate with a company that obviously either does not know how to read or comprehend the English language.

Just so you know - the zip code for my address is NOT 80403, it is 80401.

I NEVER RECEIVED THE PRODUCT - THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE BEEN GOING BACK AND FORTH ON!!! Please read the entire email below. I guess I will just have to contact my bank and dispute the charge. I was hoping that it would not have to come to this.
Your company has A LOT to learn about customer service. If you would have offered to reship the product in the first place instead of arguing with me about the fact that I NEVER RECEIVED IT, I would have been fine and not been demanding a refund on a product that I NEVER RECEIVED. I will be sure to post this email on the internet so, when people are searching for your company online they will see this and know better than to purchase your product.

Actually, working in a consumer market - the obligation of delivery disputes fall to the company that mailed the item due to the fact that the company is the one that will have to complete the lost article forms and insurance forms. It's pretty sad that your company feels the need to charge my account before even confirming that I had received the product. As I said before, I will not pay for a product that has not been received. I will be sure to contact my bank and the Better Business Bureau in regards to this matter.

This is not what I asked for. I never received the product. I do not know what type of shipment method that you used to ship but, it never arrived at my door. Unless there is a signature receipt on file from someone in my home, I expect this charges to be reversed.

Good afternoon,

Your company recently charged my account in the amount of $59.99. I signed up to receive the trial offer in October and was then charged $7.99 for shipping and handling. I have yet to recieve the product and demand that these charges reversed ASAP. I will not pay for something that I have not received. If the charges are not reversed within 3 business days, I will contact my bank and dispute the charges with them.

Thank you,
