Lexar US 32 gb flash drive

Richard A Coomber
January 17 ·

I bought two of these memory sticks on sale. They worked very well. I went and bought a third one at the regular price. One of the originals went bad. Luckily it was within Bestbuys 30 day exchange period. They replaced it. A couple of months after my purchases another one went bad. I contacted Lexar US and they referred me to a Canadian address and gave me an RMA number. I mailed the defective stick to their address in October. I waited and I waited. Finally contacted Us Lexar again and the said they didn't have the stick. I had sent it First Class mail in a DVD mailer. Clearly printed and posted as they requested. Now they will not replace the stick I mailed because I can't prove I sent it out. Beware of this product and the Lexar non replacement fact. 50% failure rate on this product.

I have been waiting about 4 months for a simple $8.99 US refund that they promised. I have saved all emails from them for proof. Product is bad and the company is worse. I will not buy Lexar products ever again.

Questions/Comments I recently purchased 3 Lexar 32 GB memory sticks from Best Buy. The first one failed within their 30 exchange period and was replaced. The second one just now failed, but outside the exchange period. I use the sticks to watch movies. The failures are that I cannot delete the movies or format the stick. I have been building, maintaining and repairing computers for 18 years and have never had this problem. I know all the tricks and none work. I use Windows 7 and XP and neither can treat the stick.

Hi Shannon. I sent the memory stick by first class mail to your Canadian address. It was October 24, 2018. It is rare for First Class to get lost. The package was secured and clearly marked. If I have to quibble over a little thing like this, I will not buy any Lexar products in the future. I have just set up a Paypal account with my credit card info. I don't know how you can deposit to it, but I used my email address to set it up. I am 77 years old and life is now too complicated for me. What else can I do?

Hello Richard,

Thank you for contacting Lexar.

I have gone ahead and checked into your RMA, and it looks like we have not yet received your returned product.

Sometimes is can take a few business days for returns to be scanned into our system, so you may want to check back in a couple of days. If you have a tracking number for your return shipment available, then we should be able to use that tracking information to update your RMA manually.

Otherwise, you may need to check in with the shipping company you used in order to confirm the whereabouts of your shipment.

Due to CFIUS restrictions put in place by the U. S Government, we are only offering refunds.
It is our highest priority to honor each of your requests; however, due to the sensitive nature of the CFIUS requirements, we must have official review and approval from the U. S Government before we can move forward.

Once this review is complete, we will begin issuing refunds to customers right away.

We understand any frustrations this may cause and are working on your behalf for a resolution as soon as possible. We look forward to issuing your refund with approval from the U. S Government. Please know, your patience at this time is very much appreciated.

During this official review process, we are happy to prepare your refund in advance. Although the exact refund method has yet to be determined, we would like to request your help in providing a PayPal email address to help expedite your refund once a process is confirmed.

Hello Richard,

Thank you for contacting Lexar.

We are unable to verify receipt of your package due to no tracking information. You can contact the Canadian Post to find the whereabouts of your package. Because we are unable to verify the receipt of your package, we are unable to move forward with your RMA. If you have a tracking number for your return shipment available, then we should be able to use that tracking information to update your RMA manually.

Thank you for setting up a PayPal account. If you could just clarify which email you used to setup that account, I can add it to your RMA.
