MAJORLY UPSET WITH UNJURY COMPANY



Recommended Posts

Just going to vent here because I am frustrated beyond words. powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury (Protein powders) has a 100% satisfaction guarantee. After experiencing an allergic reaction to their Protein powder I contacted them to return the product and get a refund. Of course it cost me almost $15 to return the $80 plus dollars in product via UPS Ground. Almost wish I hadn't NOW. They were real courteous on the phone (no problem there) and nice emails. The problem was blatantly apparent when I checked my bank account online to see if my refund had been processed. THEY CHARGED ME $89.72 instead of a REFUND.

But of course, it was after hours and no-one to help at either the bank or Unjury. This is all fine when people have hordes of money in their bank, but they almost overdrafted my checking account (especially with Thanksgiving next week!).

So please everyone be diligent in checking your accounts if you place orders with this company. I hope this matter with my account gets straightened up today. I'm hoping this was an accidental charge by an inexperienced clerk.

PRAYERS PLEASE!!

It sounds like a mistake that happened after bank hours. What's the big deal?

What the big deal is is that I spent $80.85 on products that I couldn't use, almost $15 returning the product, and then getting charged (not REFUNDED) $89.72!! I'm not a millionaire and this hurts my monthly budget being on disability to begin with. All told that was $185.28 out of my checking account. How would you feel if you were shorted this month and not knowing how soon this will be corrected, or if I will have to pay an additional STOP PAYMENT FEE at the bank.

It happened with a transaction from the "U" company at 11:26 am yesterday, overcharging my bank account.

Whew!! Big sigh of relief!!! U's representative just called me back (0817am) and said it was an error by a clerk who took the wrong pile off a desk (orders vs. refunds). I was not the only customer affected though!

He assured me that a refund of both transactions was in process. It'll just take 3-4 days more of bank processing time and I'll have both monies refunded. (Ugh, until that happens)

But huge weight will soon be lifted off my finances soon.

I was just posting that it would all work out for you. Thank God!

BTW I completely understand your frustration and need to vent.

I've been ordering from them for over 6 months now and have never had a problem. I'm not surprised they came through because they are really nice to deal with. Glad everything worked out. :)

Yes, they have always been nice to be, so that's why I vented so much this morning---the unexpectedness of a goof-up like that really caught me off guard to the point of shock. When you're only getting around $900 in social security disability payments (after Medicare), even a little expense easily becomes a big deal. Added to that with all the emotions running rampant after surgery (I'm 2 weeks post-op today). I just needed to vent.

The matter was quickly resolved after talking with their representative. While it may take 3-4 days for the bank to process the transactions, I'm hoping it goes thru sooner than later. Sadly, an inexperienced clerk took the refund pile and processed them all as new sales, so I was not the only customer affected. They are taking steps to correct the other transactions too.

refund of both transactions was in process.

glad its been taken care of :)

hope you do get the money as quickly as they say

i signed up for something at my bank so no checks can ever "bounce"

there will be a service charge from the bank

they initially pay the bill

but then you pay them back

but at least a bigger bill won't bounce :)

ie if you are paying telephone, gas, food bill

try it :)

keep up the good work :)

good luck

It always amazes me how the can grab the money out of your account in seconds, but it takes 3-4 days (or longer) to put it back. Glad it worked out!

I'm with you SuperDave. If you use your credit or debit card online or in stores, the money is subtracted immediately or a hold is put on your account for X number of dollars (especially at gas stations). Yet when the merchants owe you money and put the money back onto your debit/credit account, it takes multiple days to get it back. Just in my own thinking, they should devise a way to put it back the same day you are entitled to a refund. These multi-million dollar companies can afford that much, whereas everyday John or Jane Does don't have millions just sitting around, and if anyone is like me, barely making it from the 1st of each month to the 1st of the following month on one solitary check. Anyone other than the rich and powerful knows this feeling.

If you have a dispute you should go through your bank that issued your credit or debit card. Call them and they can immediately give you provisional credit until the dispute is resolved. The merchant can only move as quickly as their system will allow, which is why it takes days for them to credit you.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
