Holsted Jewelers Earrings and necklace

I ordered two rings @ 1.95 each from this company in October/November 2015. I did receive the items in the mail late November. I was the subsequently charged $66.98 two times on December 14th & 15th. Which overdrafted my account and was charged $35 two times. And because my account was overdrawn for more than 10 days, I incurred another $20 charge. I only received one of the items in the mail, which only contained 1 pair of sapphire earrings that was to complete the set of the ring I ordered. I did authorized the two rings with the charge of $1.95 each. However I DID NOT give Holsted Jewelers the authorization to charge my account for the two charges on the 14th and 15th. I then called Holsted, and was told that they COULD NOT return my charges because the items were already in the mail. That I would have to send them back. I called again in early January because I had only received the one item in the mail. A lady that I spoke with did refund one item charge of $66.98 on that day. However she told me that I would need to fax a copy of my bank statement to them for them to return my overdraft fees. I sent the item back via certified mail on 1/20/16 tracking number [protected], and faxed a copy of my bank statement that same afternoon. I called on Saturday 1/23/16 to check the status of this item and fax, the first representative heard my case, put me on hold and may have been coming back on the line but the call got disconnected. I called back spoke to Kevin #109043 @ 3:20 on 1/23/16 he said that the item is at the post office on its way to them. So he said that they would process the charge of $66.98 in 3-5 business days. I asked about my bank fees he said to call back on Monday. I will follow up on Monday and re-fax my bank statement as well.

Please advise me on what I should do, if anything at all.

Holsted Jewelers Offer to receive free ring

I received an offer to receive free rings and just pay the shipping charges. I have tried repeatedly to contact customer service to cancel this order as I have noticed that they are trying in different ways to submit charges on my credit card. I was notified by my bank and started calling to no avail. I do not wish to do business with this company and have made arrangements with my bank not to put through any charges received from them. I would appreciate your assistance in handling this situation immediately. Thank you in advance. Margie L. Abel

Holsted Jewelers Being double billed

Ordered an inexpensive piece of jewelry, they charged me 69.96 twice in the same day, now I get another charge for the same amount. Have been trying to email them about the account with no luck. Will have to call them tomorrow about it I guess. I have not placed anymore orders at all for anything. After looking them up online am finding that they are a scam.

Holsted Jewelers Service Personnel Hiring Practices

I am an American and have a very hard time understanding the Pidgeon English spoken by native Farsi, Hindi, Arabic, and Eastern European Language (Russian) speakers. Their English is horrible at best. Why can't I speak with an American in an American (?) Company ? Can't Holsted find native English speaking employees, or does Holsted hire strictly in 3rd world countries ? If this company can not find American employees in the United States instead of Lahore, India, perhaps they should try. I feel we should put unemployed American workers to work in THIS country before worrying about the economy in India, Pakistan, some eastern European bloc country or anywhere else besides the United States of America. Why is this so hard to do ? Please explain...or better yet; HIRE AMERICAN if you want me to buy your products... I am wary of any third world involvement in any economic dealings I transact in due to possible terrorist involvement by these same individuals I am talking to; disregarding Holsted, on the phone and giving them personal information. All I am asking is that in todays world; with terrorism; be it econo-terrorism or physical acts of terrorism, it is safer to deal with an American Company STATESIDE than it is with an individual in INDIA...BUYING AMERICAN TO SUPPORT AMERICAN LIVES...or NO SALE...be aware that if I have to speak with another Indian from Lahore India about a missing item, I am cancelling out all my orders...I will NOT support India's economy while ours is crumbling and our American citizens are homeless and on the streets, some with children who would love to have a job with Holsted Jewelers instead of eating out of dumpsters. GOD BLESS AMERICA and VOTE FOR TRUMP...Make America Strong Again...

Holsted Jewelers Fraudulent charges to debit card

I responded to a mailing from Holsted Jewelers, not realizing the headaches I would have. A few weeks after receiving the "free" rings, my debit card was twice billed for $66.98. Thankfully, my bank notified me of these fraudulent charges, closed my account, and issued me a new debit card. I also contacted this company, asking to be removed from their files. Now, on Christmas Day, my NEW debit card was billed, twice again, for $66.98. I did not authorize these charges. Again, I have to go thru the agony of closing this bank account, and being issued another debit card. I will be contacting this company again, during business hours next week, to have them cease and desist, and if need be, contact my attorney.

Holsted Jewelers Unordered jewelery

yesterday I filed a complaint about being charged for jewelry I did not order. I received an e-mail this morning letting me know there would be a credit for 59.99 twice and I was to keep the jewelry. The problem is I was told the credits were to be in the amount of $66.98 each. I refuse to pay shipping on items I did not order, I will contact my attorney about the shipping and the fact that my credit card was charged without my authorization if this matter is not resolved to my satisfaction. Holsted Jewelers is a scam company whom I plan on reporting to the BBB Please resolve my issue with me or resolve it with my attorney, up to you.

Holsted Jewelers Unordered jewelry

i won a quibids auction for two rings for $1.00 each. A few weeks later I received two pendants and two pair of earrings, I did not order or ask for. I called the company and after 10 mins on hold, was told all I had to do was return them. I told them I was not going to pay the shipping costs for something I did not order and that I wanted a call tag and a refund to my credit card, that I never authorized them to use. she refused to send me the call tag to pick up the product I did not want. I explained to her that the law is if I receive something I did not order and did not ask for, it is considered a gift and it is free. she discussed it with her supervisor and told me she would issue a refund and for me to keep the product I did not order, I received an e-mail informing me the credit had been issued, but I was to return the product. That was not the deal I made and have no intention on returning the product without a call tag. the product arrived on 12/17/15. I called them on the same day, the e-mail arrived the following day 12/18/15. If I have to take legal action, not a problem, my best friend is an attorney, so I am more than willing to take them to court to resolve this issue.

Holsted Jewelers Never received merchandise, representatives lying and credit card charging with out merchandise

I received a notice in the mail stating that if i wanted to cancel the membership to fill out the bottom portion of the form and send it back to the company way before 11/26/2015. On 11/30/2015 i saw a charge on my bank statement for $72.98, which i called the company to let them know that i sent the notice back and to give me back my refund. The representative stated that the shipment had already been sent out. She stated that when the merchandise comes to write on the envelope "return to sender" and when they receive the merchandise that they would reimburse me the money into my account and that they never received my notice to cancel either. On this date i cancelled my membership. I never received the merchandise, then on 12/4/2015 i saw (2) payments of $72.98 from this company. I called the company again on 12/5/2015 to state that i canceled them and the representative stated that she saw it. When i spoke to the representative she stated that a shipment was sent out on 12/1/2015, which in turn i stated that the other representative lied to me on the phone. The representative stated that when i do receive the merchandise to write on the envelope "return to sender" again. When the company receives the merchandise back then i will be reimbursed. It is now 12/16/2015, i still have not received any of the merchandise and i am paying for something i did not receive. This company is just about getting and scamming people out of their money. The company allows the representatives to lie to potential and future customers. I took a lost and i am tired of all the lies. Someone needs to check them out before buying anything from them. It is not fair to honest working people trying to make it in this unfair, struggling world. I still want to be reimbursed my money. I was paying a bill and when they stole the money out of my account it gave me an overdraft from that bill.

Holsted Jewelers They stole two $66.00 dollars totaling 132.00 off of my credit card

I was doing the surveys trying to win a 100.00 dollar Walmart card. Holsted Jewelers popped up says two free rings worth 60.00 for only 4.95 S&H cost. So I said sure, on the left side of the screen it had purchase these earrings with your order, I checked the no box, because for one I dont wear earrings, for two I cant afford it. So I just received my rings in the mail, got my small check on Monday November 31, the rings came in on Friday the 29th. They took the money out on December 3rd. Because all I had left out of my little check was 140.00 dollars for two weeks. I go to the store to buy something 6.95 left on my card, they wiped me clean for earrings I didnt even order, also when I called them the first time they had my address wrong so I know for a fact I didnt order those earrings.

Holsted Jewelers Products

I canceled my account a week ago for order #B62403622. I told them not to send anything else and do not charge my debit card. Today they charged my account 2 fees one for a dollar and another for 66.98. When I called about this they said that they didn't see a cancelation but they would cancel today but that they sent out earrings and that was what the charge was for. They wouldn't refund the charges until after I returned the items sent. Hell they only sent one of two rings I was supposed to get for free. They has to be a way to stop them from doing this. They should of been able to contact there billing or accounting department to get this credited back on my account.

Holsted Jewelers Free ring, gift card, free necklace

Received a card in the mail offering me to pick 2 rings from 3 shown, and they would send them if I would pay shipping, handling and taxes. I checked them out on the internet and see the complaints. In had put the payment to them on my Visa card. Visa flagged the company as fraudulent and declined any use on the card. My husband called Visa and was told Holsted Jewelers was fraudulent. Then I called Visa later that afternoon and was told there were 2 charges that showed up today. I told Visa I didn't want to pay the charges, so she flagged it, cancelled my card and issued me new cards. Anyone having problems with Holsted Jewelers, call your Credit Card Company, tell them you don't want to pay the current charges and you want to cancel your credit card and have new ones issued. If using ATM, Debit, etc. Contact your bank and have them help you, but, do it ASAP so, you don't get your bank account drained, or ATM maxed.

Holsted Jewelers Free rings and walmart gift card

I called and the rude lazy customer service representative whom i spoke with just let me stay on the line for over 10 minutes. The rep said he will just activate the code and asked me to stay on the line. However, he was just there on the other line letting me wait for nothing.i can hear people talking on the background and he was just there quite, not saying anything. I spoke up and said "maybe you are a scam, you're not interested talking to me? Neither do I." And i hanged up.

Holsted Jewelers Unauthorized charge

I ordered two candles on 10/14/15. I received them and received a card stating I had two free rings to call and pay 3.99 only. I called and chose the two rings I wanted. At that time I was asked to stay in the program and receive jewelry and have my credit card charged until I either accepted or mailed back the product. I refused that offer at that time at least twice. I received these rings but on 11/15/15 my credit card is being charged $66.98 and I have not authorized this. I want these charges removed and my account annotated that I DO NOT want to be enrolled in your program not now or from the first call. Debbie Morris [protected] [protected]@yahoo.com

I ordered the rings, and got them both. I have no complaints about the rings, but they did not send the gift certificate from
Walmart. I cancelled the membership, and was sent a form to fill out, and they asked me to send a self-addressed, stamped envelope, in order to receive my gift certificate. I sent it all in on 11/6/15. On 11/27/15, I received another form, and another request for a self addressed stamped envelope! Because I cancelled my membership, within the allotted time, I was only charged $7.98 for shipping and handling. Unfortunately for me, they charged this amount in small increments. My Bank suspected fraud, and they put a hold on my debit card! I went through HELL, for three days, trying to get this whole mess sorted out! I had made other purchases with my card on the same day, and I had to call all the stores, to make sure that the payments went through, before the card was put on hold. I could have been arrested for Those purchases, because it's the same
thing as writing a bad check! I knew the money was in my account, but the bank had blocked payment on my purchases. This whole experience has been a nightmare, and I will never respond to anything like this again!.

Customer Service at Holsted Jewelers. I received the offer in the mail for two free rings but I have read all the complaints about your service. Do you really conduct business as described? Have you done anything to correct these problems and I would like to know how you can conduct business like that and think you can continue. Do you think people do not check their statements. I would like for you to answer these questions. Is it bad management or are you stealing from people. There is no question something is wrong and it would be nice to have honest answers.
