On top of the monthly membership fee they charge you to access their so-called free merchandise site, the Faith necklace is cheap and didn't last. They don't remind you that you have a membership so you won't know until you start seeing the charges on your credit card. Very deceptive.
BUYER BEWARE! When you purchase a product form this company they AUTOMATICALLY sign you up for a VIP Membership. They hide that on the checkout page and if you don't uncheck the box then you start getting charged monthly. This is ridiculous! I ordered from a what I thought was a Christian company that sets you up to steal your money. Thank God (the real God) that I am consistent in checking my bank account. I don't know what kind of Christian company this is supposed to be, but Stealing is not of God, it is of Satan. They have said they would refund my money but that is because I caught it on the first payment if not they would have continued to charge me every month until I caught it. So just be careful if you choose to purchase from this company!
The necklace was ok but they automatically add membership and deduct recurring monthly fees until YOU cancel it. I was unaware of this and did not authorize however, it is written in the fine print so you can't debate and don't get refund. BEWARE! So you don't get taken too.
Beware! Made a purchase and acct was debited back in March for product. Today, May 1st a so called membership fee was debited from my account not being aware there was one. They refuse to reimburse the membership fee that I didn't request.
I ordered something also and they took out a membership fee. It was a monthly fee. I cancelled it! They won't reimburse. Be careful.
Ordered the faith necklace back in May 2020, nothing wrong, no issues. Now its June 30 and I have a pending charge of $12.47 from my account which from what others are saying it's for a membership fee that's not listed or mentioned anywhere on their sites.
Update: Received a call back from Zoe's Loft. They are cancelling the "membership fee" and giving me a refund of the $12.47 charge.
I didn't realize until 3 months after I placed an order that money was being deducted from my account. I called Zoe's Loft - customer service located in the Philippines - who advised me that I signed up for the VIP program. I assured her I would not have knowingly agreed to that. Said they will cancel membership but will not refund money. Will NEVER order from them again.
I wish I had read these reviews before purchasing the "Faith" necklace. Just went through my credit card charges and noticed a mysterious $12.47 charge. WHAT? I called the company and found out that, just as others have said, they have been charging me this for 6 MONTHS because I hadn't unchecked a little box. They refuse reimbursement. I called my credit card company and contested those charges. We'll see what happens.
My purchase was fine. But, it took over 2 months to receive. And, then, like everyone else I started getting charged the monthly membership fee for their Digital Catalog. I don't even pay that much for a normal paper magazine subscription. Usually you don't pay for catalogs. And, yes, I too did not read the fine print. Boy was I mad. I let the young man know that they really shouldn't be so sneaky. If it's worth the monthly fee - state it clearly.
I will NEVER purchase from this site again. Buyer beware!
I purchased a sweater from Zoe's Loft and it took a very long time to arrive. I had not known that it was being shipped from China. Once it arrived I found that it wasn't a sweater at all. It was a sweatshirt made of very cheap and stiff fabric. The Zoe's Loft website reviews are quite obviously fake and they did not post my poor review. I will be taking care to research clothing websites that I haven't before heard of before I purchase from them.
DO NOT ORDER from this company you will be charged a monthly fee with out consent. I ordered 3 necklaces and then now I have a monthly fee that I was not aware of being drafted from my account without knowledge of such a fee. Not very Christian like to not inform customers of this fee. Will not order from again. Beware read reviews first.
I got scammed by this company who uses Christianity to take your money for a digital membership which I never knew about or how to access. Purchased necklaces from them never saw anything about a membership. I will be turning this company in to my state representative. These companies should be punished!
Don't order from this company! Once you order they automatically sign you up for membership with a monthly fee. If you call to cancel membership, they will not refund the fees. They say membership wasn't cancelled within trial period. People don't know they are automatically being signed up for a membership. Who does this? Shoddy business practice so stay away from them.
Yes, I am also one of the purchasers that bought the FAITH necklace. The purchase went through fine but checking my bank balance this morning noticed that there was a PAYPAL charge for $12.47 that I did not authorize! Shame on me for not checking the reviews, shame on Paypal for letting an unauthorized purchase go through and shame on Zoe's Loft for scamming people! I will never purchase from them again. Jury is still out if Paypal refunds this or not...
What a sham! Received the necklace I ordered and then saw a membership fee was reoccurring. There is no mention of a membership in the site and I did not sign up for it.
Read the fine print. I bought 1 necklace because it looked nice and I wanted to check it out. I was not aware that in buying that 1 item they would sign me up for a membership that costs 12.47 a month. I was charges 3 months before I realized they were taking money from me. I called and asked them to cancel whatever it was they were charging me for and return the money that is currently pending on my bank acct. They said I signed up for a membership and they would cancel that but would not issue a refund for the money currently pending. I'm going to have to cancel my card because I don't trust them!
I wish I would have read all these reviews before I ordered. I ordered the faith necklace and after about 5 weeks still waiting for it I went checking to see what the hold up was. Started communicating with Chemron in customer service who said the necklace had been delivered on March 25th. I assured her it was not received and asked that it be replaced. Her resolution was that I go to my neighbors and check with the post office. Seriously? After responding with my displeasure she finally provided the address it was mailed to which was a house down the street. I evidently entered the wrong address (I've never done that before but I guess it is not impossible). So if I want to retrieve the necklace I've got to go up to a stranger's house to ask for it! To add even more to this, I found another charge on my card for $14.99 for what may be the membership everyone is mentioning. I'm usually pretty careful not to sign up for notifications, etc. so I'm not sure how I got roped into this. So bottom line is I've received nothing and am being charged even more for nothing. I placed my order through Facebook and will never do that again!
Placed an order in April, received notification from my credit card for a $12,74 charge which I didn't recognize. I emailed Zoes Loft for explanation. I was told I had signed up for the VIP membership when I placed my order. I requested that the membership be canceled as I was unaware of this procedure. I received a reply that the membership will be canceled and my $12.74 will be credited to my credit card. I will follow up to make sure I am canceled. Bad business Zoes Loft. Will not be ordering ever again. Plus poor quality product.
If zero was an option, I would give this company a ZERO rating! I ordered three "free" items (had to pay outrageous postage & handling) from this company. The items were not mailed all together. I had NO idea that the items were being shipped from CHINA because the original item that I bought and paid for was shipped rather quickly. I received 1st item, a t-shirtn. V that wasn't true to size. I received the second item, a watch similar to a Fitbit, and it doesn't even work! I emailed the company AGAIN (5th time) and I get the same auto reply. Grrrr. DO NOT order from Zoe's Loft... EVER!
I ALWAYS try to read reviews for placing an order online - even if it's from AMAZON but sure didn't this time! I love the Faith necklace but just like everyone else I have been fighting to get this $12.47 off my debit card and to STOP charging it each month!
I guess I will just have to get a new card number? I don't know what else to do - to get them to stop charging it!
Answer: I did receive my necklace, but they add a recurring monthly membership fee until YOU cancel it. Most are unaware of this because it is in the fine print.
Answer: They charge you for a VIP Membership each month. I found that out today when I emailed them and I had to get ugly with them. They charged me 14.99 for 2 months straight. I made them refund me immediately for both charges.
Answer: No it is not. Just put on hold for long period of time with recording.
Answer: Will not choose after this beware! A company that takes a fee without notice from your account are thieves.
