I agree with you all. I have paid off my computer in full and was told it will ship with then four to six week.I keep calling the company and was repeatley told the same thing. So i file a complaint with the BBB. After fileing the complaint i found out the company filed for chapter 13 bankruptcy. I filed for a proof of claim with the District of Delaware.To find out how to file your claim check out the BBB that is how i found out.

My name is Jeremy I made the payments for a year. From july of 07 to July of 08. In December of 08 I recieved my computer ( a dell windows vista). Around the begining to teh middle of 09 I recieved my flat screen, color printer, and software. But I havn't gotten my 300 dollars back. I Documented each time I called and who I spoke to and the result of the call. Each time I was told the a note would be sent to the supervisor. About mid 09 I was told I needed to send in my original paperwork that showed I was suppose to get a 300 rebate and it needed to be sent cerified. I did so and got the confermation back from the postoffice saying thay recieved the information teh asked for. Now when I call the numbers nither ring. [protected] or [protected]) Also I can no longer go to the web sight to look up my account. I was told in order to recieve teh free products I would need to nake every payment consistantly. If I didn't I would forfite my items. i heald my end of the bargin and they didn't. I feel I am getting the run around. Does anyone know whats going on?

I noticed that they stopped taking payment out of my account and no notification why. I am out over $600.00 or more becausr I can't even get in touch with them to see how much I paid them. Last I knew was over $600.00 and I demand my money backand if I have to sue them for it I will! I am going to take whatever steps are nessesary to get my money back and hopefully many of you out there will do the same! My name is Brenda Sabo and I would like an answer as to what is going on! I can't even call them! The number is no longer working! My e-mail is happy2b4@comcast.net phone is [protected] please leave message for me as I will not answer calls unknown to me and then I will return your call ASAP. Thank You! This is a very sserious situation and I think we all should get together and do something about tis ASAP.

Well I am about to to pay off my computer and wanted to look at my account to see when I would get my gifts but I guess that's going to happen now. I would like to be a part of this law suite my email address is neworleansmd@aol.com Bluehippo should understand we did this for a computer but more so to help our credit and taking advantage of people that don't have lots of money and a family this is a hard one to something should be done we did our part now what about the people that charged us high intrest rates and price gouged us on the price of the computer you could get at walmart for a quarter of the price they charged. what will be done. I want my stuff bluehippo I know my rights. This is really a disgrace to our country

I have also been taken for about $1580 dollars but after I was showing a friend what computer I was getting, the web site was shut down and I googled them to see that they filed Bankrupcy and all the others that have been scammed. Immediately contacted my bank and had to pay to stop payments. So yes paid 47.99 a week for nothing like a bunch of other people, Don't think we will see a penny of it either.

Just been Scammed!

Hopefully a lawyer will file a suit and help us get some money back.

Im very upset wt bluehippo. The customer service is horrific along with the wait time. I eventually cancelled my order with them after I was about 600.00 invested. Since I was told I could not get my money back; I was given a store credit to buy anything in their online store. after selecting an item it took me 2yrs to recieve and they still didnt have the product I chose so they sent me what they had. It didnt consume my full store credit so I put in another order for a camera. Of course I had to send them another money order in order to get the camera. That was in October 2009. It is now 2010 and still no camera. To add insult to injury, none of the customer service numbers are working and the website will not pull up at all...Disgusted!

Well I have the same issue I paid my lap top off in August of 07, I did not receive it until May of 09, after countless complaints to their CEO, BBB, hours on the phone, and finally I contacted the Attorney general, and about a month and a half of working with the AG, i finally got my laptop that is not worth what I paid for it quit working after only 3 months of having it and I had to go get it repaired. But I did my rebate 8 months ago and I have never received my free items, When I try to call them none of the numbers work now, their website is gone, and I just found out they had to file bankruptcy, well looks like I will never get my rebate or my free items, BUT AT LEAST THEY ARE GONE!

I have been scammed by Blue Hippo and heard they filed bankrupsy and I would like to know how can the courts protect the rights of these people to out right committ fraud and get away with it? Dell Computer is as guilty as they are because they made the deal with them and I called them to check on the status of my order and I know they got the order because they sent me a computer bag in the mail and I called them they told me they were on back order for that particular laptop and was waiting for others to be built, they told me I would get it in two weeks. Never got it. Called Dell back to track my order and they gave me several tracking numbers that I never received. I thought Dell was a decent company. I don't understand how they could get away with swindling people out of muti millions of dollars and only have to file bankruptcy. We need to file a criminal complaint against them for theft.

My Name is Angel De Leon and i also got suckered into this BULL ### PROGRAM (excuse my language). As soon as i turned 18 which was three years ago, I wanted to build my credit up to buy a car and get a phone and such... because i had no credit. I paid my 13 payments and never got anything, after the whole year when i paid my balance of 2100.73 still had got nothing. I was once on the phone on hold for 3 hours just for some one to pick up and accidentally (my ###!) hanged the ohone back up. After two years of waiting and non stop phone calls that keep saying the same thing over and over about 2-6 weeks I finally got an attorney to help. I got my 500 dollar laptop and was promised my 999 dollar rebate. This was in 2007 now i'm 21 and we are in 2010! and still have got no refund! I worked really hard and in fact borrowed money to keep paying you ###. I just want my refund that was never sent to me... I signed an agreement with you BlueHippo and i did my part, now its time to keep YOURS! thank you.

I am posting a complaint against Bluehippo for failing to refund our money after we cancelled our order for a computer and printer pkg. Bluehippo was taking money from our bank account that was not authorized by us.
We were promised store credit by Bluehippo, but whenever we try to use the store credit we could no longer get onto the homepage to place an order and the 1-800 # is no longer in service, so we can't get in touch with them.
We never received our computer pkg. Nor did we receive our $260.00 that we had paid up front for a deposit.
I left a msg with the lawyer's office that I got in touch with once and they never returned our call.
Please add our complaint to the list against Bluehippo and include us in the lawsuit against Bluehippo.
Thank you.

you folks shouldnt feel bad, I ordered a new computer with a flat screen monitor, a dell, which was supposed to come with the free color printer and I also was supposed to get a flat screen tv. these people were advertising on television so they looked legitimate to me, but i paid over 1, 300.00 dollars and never got a thing from them and when i tried to call them the people would always say that i had the number that you place your order at and they couldnt give me a number to get a hold of anyone else or one that would work anyway. if anyone knows of a class action suit against these people im in ! please e mail me at allchi1@att.net, and by the way, this has been four years ago.

I can't believe this company exist! My grandmother was going to finance one too. Boy am I glad that she didn't! I never received merchandise and was told by Customer Service that they were processing my refund, and now after several months, phone calls, and complaints I can't seem to get my money back. I'll tell ya it took them a few hours to get the money out of my account and I can't as of 5 months ago get my $$ back. Again, I am so glad my grandmother didn't order it. I feel sorry for all those people that are struggling to make ends meet and BlueHippo, LLC. is doing nothing but screwing us all! ###!

I want my $99.00 dollars back in to my account, I have not signed any agreement and sent it back to them. That is a deceptive tactic to take money out of individual's checking and savings accounts.

This company should make sure that the consumer is in full agreement before taking any money.

They don't stand behind their products or company because they are too ashamed to answer the phones, so they use recorded messages to hidebehind their deceit.
