Online order, 2 months to fulfill, zero communication
I placed an order online on May 12, 2026 for 4 items. I paid $9.98 for shipping but it’s a small company so I didn’t expect *immediate* turnaround. After 3 weeks with no communication like an email with receipt and tracking number, I contacted them. No response. Two weeks later; I tried the same way again, as well as another method of communication. Still Nothing. I tried again. Continued silence from Life Essentials Refillery. 68 days and zero communication later - over TWO MONTHS and a week - the package showed up. There was no receipt, but each tiny package was rolled up and reused paper with a happy little sticker. The two bottles of essential oil were tightly capped, but only about 3/4 full. It’s a brand I’ve used for over 30 years, and I have never seen a bottle for sale that was so underfilled. It was a small order, nothing I couldn’t live without. I’ve worked for small retailers, and I understand the struggle. But I have never experienced such an absolute failure of customer service and order fulfillment. There are a lot of possible excuses for the package taking that long but none for the lack of communication. And if the online portion is too complex, please take the website down. Perhaps they are fabulous at what they do in person, but I absolutely cannot recommend dealing with them online.
