I highly recommend to not use Carid (Partsid). I generally never have a bad time with companies, but this is something out of a movie. I ordered a set of bumpers on February 9th, they charged me a crazy amount for shipping (I was willing to pay given I live in a remote location). After I had already paid, and the order got delayed repeatedly, they asked me to pay them even more for shipping…I declined and asked for a refund back, simple enough.
Of course, I was told that the refund would be issued in 24-72 hours no big deal. As of today, I am now over 50 days of waiting for my refund for a part that never even got shipped. The staff in outstandingly rude. I requested numerous times to get an explanation outside of "please wait 24-72 hours for an update" that they never send anyways, I requested manager call backs numerous times and it never happened, in fact one staff member stated that I need to just stop asking, wait and to STOP requesting manager call back because its "pointless".
Over and over its excuse after excuse. It's a different answer every time. Now I am being told that a check is being sent to me June 1st, and that I should receive it by June 30th. For a refund that was submitted on March 27th.
I promise you; you do not want to use them. It is a completely ridiculous company. I quite literally started searching around to see if Carid was a scam. Use extreme caution, I would honestly use other companies even if its more expensive because carid will fraud you out of your money if there is an issue with an order.
Unreal is all I have to say now.
Dear Nathaniel,
Please accept our apologies for the situation with your order, and for the frustrating experience you had.
If the original transaction took place more than 180 days ago, the refund can be issued via check only. We are currently experiencing higher than normal inquiry volume and therefore, delays affected all the procedures from processing to shipments and returns.
We would appreciate an opportunity to improve your experience and show you that this is not the way we usually work.
Please, email me directly at mila.pa@carid.com with your order details and I will assist you further as well as offer compensation for the inconveniences caused.
Looking forward to your response!
Sincerely,
Consumer Relations Department at CARiD.com.
