Home Elegance Center
Scandalous, cheat, rip off, unprofessional, liars, dishonest, fleece, no product, steal, thievery

This is by far THE worst experience I have ever had with a company. I placed an order for a washer/dryer combo on Home Elegance Center (HEC) and spent over $500. Of course, they charged my credit card and I was excited that my washer/dryer would be here within the next week or so. This was based on their statement that the product usually ships between "3-5 days". Two weeks passed. I called... And I called... And I called. I finally got a agent. I spoke with him and he apologized and agreed to refund half of my shipping and to expect my product in the next two weeks. I waited... And waited... And nothing. I called yet again... And called... And called. (Please note that when I say I "called" these are at least 30-60 minute waits on hold). So I finally reached another agent, she said that it was a warehouse issue, not HEC. I told her that that wasn't good enough and that I want to speak with a supervisor. She states that no supervisors were available and they would be returning my call shortly. The call never came. All along I have been leaving countless messages. So I e-mail them saying that I want compensation for this ridiculousness and no e-mail back.

E-mail sent May 26th:
To whom it may concern;This has been the most glaring display of lack of professionalism that I have ever seen. My order was placed on 4/21/10 and I still haven't received my product when I was told that it would be shipped within 3-5 days. When I call during business hours, I may spend over an hour before I just hang up out of frustration. I have spoken to two representatives within the last month and latter of the two promised that a supervisor would contact me shortly. Needless to say, this never happened. I am thoroughly disappointed in the level of customer service and the fact that I have not received a product that I have paid over $500 for is beyond comprehension. It is affecting my livelihood as I have to spend money at laundry mats at inflated prices. I would like to know how you all plan to compensate me for this awful, nonsensical ordeal and when my product is to arrive. If not, I expect a full-refund in a very timely manner. Thank you.

E-mail sent June 10th:
This is beyond ridiculous. I would like my full refund. Thank you.

Email sent by HEC conveniently on June 10th after my stern request (N.B.- The e-mail from the 26th remained unanswered):
HI Paul
sorry for the delay of your order, I will contact the warehouse, for the delay we will refund the shipping and handling charges
thank you

It is now June 22nd—a day over TWO MONTHS from the original order. Email:
Alan,
I still have not received my full refund. I didn't ask for shipping and handling charges returned, I asked for a full refund. I do not want anything to do with Home Elegance Center. This company is an embarrassment; it has been two months. If I do not receive my full refund in the next 10 business days, I will be contacting an attorney and a collection agency. Moreover, I will be writing poor reviews in every outlet possible and filing a complaint with BBB. You all should be ashamed of your lack of professionalism. Good day.

If possible, I would like to sue these people for everything that I could think of. This has to be illegal. I want interest lost on my credit card, I want my minute usage from my phone (Yes, I went over), I want compensation for my time, laundry mat bills. I don't know the law well enough to know what can be done but if I did not pay my bill, I'd be place into Collections and pay more that what my original bill was. I want the same deal. Any lawyers, please contact me! I want to really teach this company a lesson. I am a student and I don't have time to get the run around for a item that I paid for.

Sorry for the rant. Needless to say, if you have two months to spend waiting for a product that will never come, HEC is the company for you. If not, do not touch them with a thousand-foot pole. I should have known better when I saw the "5% Off Two Day Sale" lasted more than two days... It's been there over two months, too!
