MAACS.com claims to have good customer service and to be reliable. From my experinece this is not even close to the truth. On 09-20-07 I ordered a set of ABU and never got them. I called several times and finally on 12-15-07 I spoke with someone who finally canceled the order which was a lie. I had to e-mail and call several more times and on 12-31-07 I received an e-mail stating they had canceled my order again and that I would have the charges on my credit card reversed. I still have never been reimbursed my money and no one will call me back. This company has no business claiming that "We want you to be completely satisfied with the products and services we provide, so if for whatever reason you are not pleased we will be happy to exchange, refund or offer store credit for your purchase (within 30 days, minus shipping/handling fees)." This was taken off their website and should be removed. If you do not want any problems stay away from this company. I have spoken with many people and I am not the only one that feels this way.

I was told about this company Maacs by a friend. He still has not gotten his. I am stationed here at lackland afb and besides clothing and sales there are two locations outside that sell the uniform. I purchased a set from each. The good thing about that is that I know from who I am buying from. They both sell good ABU'S and with the mess of having the uniform match. I was able to get two sets outside the base. I am glad I ran into this site.

I forgot to mention the two locations off base that sell the abu uniform off base. I know one is kellac and the other I is RW uniforms. Sorry dont know the website. They are right outside the base gates.

Same issue here, 293.55 for ABU's since 9/27/2007 I call everyday and leave messages. I’ve emailed and even done the cancel request form on their "new" ticket system to get my money back.

Latest I’ve heard was GSA is pulling this companies contract for numerous complaints received

I'm disputing charges on credit card used and filing a complaint with BBB.

These people are horrible. They are now only open 3 days a week. They do live in a mansion, it's on Hemlock Creek, Portland, big gated mansion, with several garage bays, tennis court, all the ammenities. One of the previous post stated that they drive Hummer, yes, that's correct, new Hummer!!!
They treat their employees just as bad, it's like a sweatshop. Somebody should get these people...

I can verify the above comment, but they live on Hemlock Creek in FREEPORT, Maine, not Portland.

QUICK REFUND- After Four months i went back to my credit card company and told them what happened, the next day the money was back on my card! Everyone should do this, so much easier, and then Maacs has to prove they shipped anything out to get their money.

I’m a victim as well; I ordered 1 set of ABU’s for my husband back in Oct of 07 and never received them. I canceled my order in Jan of 08 and was told by e-mail my refund check would be cut on that Fri and sent out, it’s July and I still haven’t received a refund. I’ve also put in a compliant to the Better Business Bureau but apparently MAACS told them that they’ve tried to get in contact with me to give me a refund but was unable to( A Lie). I’ve tried calling them numerous times but I never get to talk to a real person only voice mail. My calls are never returned and my e-mails always say that they are taking care of my refund. Hopefully someone in the military can push this up the Chain of Command to have this Company put on a black list, are Soldiers, Sailors, Airman and Marines deserve better.

SAME experience here. Of course. Order placed 14 Novembr 2007 for a total of 312 dollars and change. Still no refund. Have gotten all of the same run-around as everyone has detailed and am now at the point where my ticket support questions are ignored. PLEASE e-mail me if anyone gets any further with legal action or actually gets refunded in full!!

The MacDonald's have been spending your money and living in the lap of luxury. This has gone on too long. If you have already emailed and tried the ticket system, and have documented your efforts, please please please call the authorities. Allison MacDonald is not returning emails and phone calls, she doesn't care. She's only trying to delay the inevitable. I hope this sorry excuse for human life sees some serious jail time for fraud. The only thing left for us to do here is to pursue legal action.

Glad I am not the only one. Got screwed to the tune of $109.02, still waiting on the refund that isn't coming.

Tried emailing the lawyer a few posts back. Going to talk to my commander and USAA. Will check back this board until I resolve the issue.

Same story here, My order went in Oct 07 and they still owe me 2 complete sets of ABU's to include all the accouterments to the tune of $260.40. No reponses or emails returned either. A total POS business that needs to suffer the consequences. Maybe someone can alert 20/20 and have them do a piece on these criminals.

MY STORY MIRRORS THE REST. PAID FOR ABU'S, DIDN'T RECEIVE ITEM, CANCELLED ORDER, 6 MONTHS LATER STILL GETTING THE RUNAROUND ABOUT MY REFUND. THIS IS A PATHETIC COMPANY WHO USES THE "VETERAN OWNED BUSINESS" AS ADVERTISEMENT, AND TREATS US IN THE FASHION. THERE IS NO INTEGRITY IN THIS BUSINESS AND THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS. CONTACT THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU TO FILE A COMPLAINT!!! MAACS INC, YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES!!!1

I have been trying to get my refund for ABU's that were never delivered and despite the several chances I have given to the owner, I have still not recieved my refund. This has been going on since December 07 and they have still not responded to my last 3 attempts to contact them. The last information I had gotten from them was that a check would be sent by the end of July...guess what, still no check.
We in the military don't make a hell of alot of money and it is sad to see a company that is only interested in stealing our money. I noticed that Allison Macdonald even posted a coment on here claiming to be comitted to correcting these problems. I have spoken to her via email personally and still nothing has been resolved. GIVE BACK OUR MONEY, YOU HAVE NOT PROVIDED THE SERVICES THAT WE HAVE PAID FOR!

Great news for those who filed complaints with the Maine Attorney General's office. According to correspondence I received this week, the AG is filing an unfair trade practices lawsuit against MAACS. I dont have high hopes of getting a refund, but I'm optomistic that Allison's "scheme" will come to an end. Not sure if jail time will be an option.

I've been waiting since oct, over 30 emails, tickets deleted and not answered, no calls answered. This company needs to go down and hard. I will give them credit though for the following from the BBB: (directly from the BBB site)

Each of the businesses listed have an exorbitant number of complaints for BBB’s three year reporting period. As of July 3, 2008, the top three most complained about companies are:

• Direct Marketing Concepts, Inc. – Beverly, MA
• TLC Marketing – Boston, MA
• M.A.A.C.S., Inc. – Portland, ME

The McDonald's should be put in prison for along time for treating our service members this way.

Holy S***! I actually got a response from Helen today.

"I can not give you a time frame as when the refund will be issued.
Please send all correspondence for cancellation and refunds to
our new ticket system address is http://www.maacs.com/support"
Thank You,

Yeah, that's what I thought. I know I will probably never see my money again. I sure hope the Attorney General hangs Allison out to dry. How she was ever allowed to do business is beyond me. I hope she's enjoying herself with all our money, I know I could sure find something nice to do with mine if I were to ever see it again.

Same story as everyone else. Ordered in Dec 2007 4 sets of ABUs. To date have received 2 shirts and name tapes. Have made several attempts at contacting them, to no avail. MAACS now has $366.19 of mine. Just opened 1 more ticket after seeing the last post from Flyfisher. Maybe I will catch MAACS on a good day and will actually get a response. Doubt it though! This company pisses me off.
