I've purchased "Instant Immersion" Italian last summer and loved the game "Who is Oscar Lake."  But the version they gave me constantly crashed.  So this summer I looked online for a better version.  Multilingual Books offered one - even a Mac version - for $89.  I thought the price was high, but it seemed like a better product (graphics, etc) and I figured it was less likely to crash.  I bought it on July 5th and they sent me a confirmation e-mail.   They charged my credit card on July 8th. 



I never received a shipment confirmation or any other contact from their company.  On July 22nd, I e-mailed them to ask about the status of my order.  No response.  I tried again on the 28th.  Same thing.  I tried calling them and only got a generic voice mail message.  Very fishy!  



It only took me five minutes to find this website, by searching "Multilingual Books" and "scam".



Don't ever order anything from this company!  I will be spreading the word to as many people as I can.

Refund Received

AUTHOR: Fiona Johnston - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, August 02, 2010

After posting here and e-mailing the company informing them that I had posted here, I received an e-mail apologizing for the delay and saying they had had trouble obtaining the product.  They offered to get it for me within a week, but said it would come in different packaging.  (???) Or, they said, I could download it directly from their website (why wasn't that an option from the beginning?). 



Anyway, I informed them I was no longer interested and asked for a refund.  They agreed, said they would refund the money within three days, and they did.



I honestly don't know if this was a case of scamming or simply very poor customer service.  Either way, it was a very unpleasant experience. I am happy that they refunded my money, but I would never order from this company again.
