DO NOT BUY the trial subscriptions from KlutchClub as you will end up ticked off & out of money. I visited the website & thought the products looked interesting & something that might be of value to me so I tried the Best Of KlutchClub Women's Box where I paid $ 13 for the box which included shipping by purchasing the voucher from MamaSource. The box & its contents were decent, not great, but for just the cost of shipping, a good value. Luckly I saw in the confirmation email that this box was AUTO-RENEWING @ $ 18/box + $ 7/shipping. I cancelled the auto-renewing subscription.
Shortly thereafter, I received a promo email that invited me to try a Women's box for just the shipping fee ($ 8) with the $ 10 box being free. I was curious what a regular monthly box might include so I purchased this. The box was disappointing so after going through the box, I went online & CANCELED my subscription.
A little over a month later a new box shows up from KlutchClub. I was busy with my family & my father-in-law's declining health (dementia) & I went online & immediately canceled the subscription again (which was not showing up as canceled despite me doing this previously!!!!) & find out my credit card has been billed by KlutchClub at $ 18. I call the phone number & NO ONE answers. I try it multiple times - NO ANSWER. I send an email indicating that my account was supposed to be canceled & I wish to return the box for a refund. I'm told I can not return the box.
I am EXTREMELY annoyed. So then 1 month later, another box shows up with another $ 18 charge on my credit card. I am FURIOUS. Since I can't talk to anyone live on the phone despite a phone # being listed on their website, that only the CEO can issue a refund & that she is traveling for a few weeks & will not have any access to email. This is so outrageous & I tell the customer service rep, that I will wait for her return & to have her contact me. No contact ever comes from the CEO regarding the refund for the 2 boxes ($ 36 of charges!). I write again to the Customer Service Rep & NO RESPONSE to any of my three emails sent!
I regret that I spent a dime with this company. Horrible customer service. You are given the run-around if you have an issue. No timely responses. Impossible to speak with anyone; email is the only communication option. There are better run companies that are run more fairly & with more integrity than this company. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE & the products were not very good overall which made this experience even worse.
I will NEVER work with this company again nor would I encourage any of my friends to order from them - NO MATTER HOW GOOD THE DEAL SEEMS AT THE TIME, this company will find a way to UNFAIRLY charge your credit card & NOT cancel your auto-renewing account. Life is too short for this type of stress. :(

Nice try but missing the mark
AUTHOR: Ticked off consumer - ()
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, October 29, 2013
I'm an internet savvy shopper so I understand how to navigate the Internet and websites so that was not the issue despite the effort of this company to PLACE THE BLAME on me. I am also not an idiot (I graduated in the top 20% of my Executive MBA program) so again, nice try to deflect this situation as totally my fault but 100% inaccurate. How is it that I somehow managed to cancel my account once but not the second time???? C'mon. Read the details more closely so your response at least fits the specifics for the situation.
The phone number DOES NOT work as stated in my report so that was not an option. If you send an email, you are at the mercy of the company as to whether or not they respond to you. The company did not respond to me once they had my money so there was no need to offer any type of customer service nor did they care about my satisfaction with the accuracy of the charges.
Read this company's response & you can clearly see, there are companies that are pro-customer & care about the customer & there are ones that are not supportive of the customer but are more concerned about making the sale & getting your money, regardless of the customer's satisfaction level.
I personally choose to reward companies with my business that care about their customers to ensure the company's vitality & longevity. As evidenced by KLUTCHCLUB's response, has opted to put the ENTIRE blame on me, the customer - not their deceptive efforts to keep re-enrolling you in auto-renewing programs or the fact that they do not resolve client issues in a timely manner with the goal that you will just forget about it & "go away".
