Company information:
BlueHippo Funding

Baltimore, Maryland
United States
Phone: 800-778-4018
www.bluehippo.com

I purchase a computer from Blue Hippo, I paid $99.00 activation fee, plus six weeks debit amount of 39.99 totaling $239.94. I also pay and extra six week debit amount of 39.99 before Blue Hippo sent my computer. The only thing that was shipped was a 17' color Monitor (monster size monitor) I was told it would be a flat monitor, Harddrive, speakers, keyboard and mouse, and a few softwares that did not equal the $700.00 dollars promised. I called and asked about the free flat screen LCD 20' color TV, color printer, and software games promised and they said that it will be shipped soon.

It has now been 11 months. Need to say I have canceled my account and stopped payments on this computer with cost $2337.50. I received a letter from a law firm Hosto,Buchan, P.L.L.C (Notice of Filing of Arbitration Award) to garnish my payroll for this computer with cost $500.00 at Walmart. I will be fighting this! By any means necessary!

And everytime no number and no answer. Also they've told me my account and complaint was sent to upper management. Which of whom to this day i'm still waiting to hear from.If theres any answer out there I would like to know. How Do I get my money back or the free items that were promised. Yes why the small people? why can't companies be honest and stop ripping people off who help build there company? Any answers are welcomed. despreate in Delaware...

I ordered a computer from blue hippo and this was a year ago. I have gotten my free printer, the three hundred dollar rebate but have yet to recieve the tv and software bundle. I have called so many times and have gotten the run around every time. I feel that if you are going to advertise these things back up what you are selling and don't give people the run around, just send what you promised!

I had no problems getting my computer. Iam still having problems getting my free gifts. I made all my payments on time, and have called every week, where are my free gifts. Nine months I have waited, still no gifts. They give no reason, why? WHY? WHY? I asure you they will be sent. Then where are they. I am tired of asking, and tired of the excuses. Flase Advertisement, is not the way to go. Why is it they can get a lawyer for not payment, but we can do nothing for their lies. LIES! LIES! LIES!

I ordered a Dell computer fromBlue Hippo in Febrary, 2008 and still have not received it.

Everytime you call me, it's always a different lie one after the other. I have a list of six calls made to them and no one wants to answer your questions, more and less let to talk to come one in upper management.

I am a senior citizen and can't aford to throw money about in the toilet all together thay have taken $753.82 from my checkcing account and they need to be help accountable for this. I will notify the Attorney General and also the BBB about this company.

Thank you

I have my computer over two years now and I haven't receive my 20' TV and my color printer that was promise to me. The only anwser that I get from them is to wait 15 DAYS, it coming in two weeks, or it coming with shipping in that area or state, which is a lie. I don't think this company helps with your credit at all, but just take our money from us. Their agreement is to take it out of our account each month, which they are getting paid anyway. What do I need to do. NEED ANSWERS!!!
