Don't EVER Order from https://www.orderforeverlazy.com/

Seriously, I had to put that in the title so HOPEFULLY that gets picked up by all the search engines. I repeat...NEVER ORDER a Forever Lazy from https://www.orderforeverlazy.com/.


And here is why:

First off, I want to say, fair friends, that I am a HUGE fan of the onesie. I don't care who you are, you can seriously lick my ass. Even as 30 year old woman, I LOVE my onesies. I currently own three onesies, cause I know you were wondering. NONE OF THEM ARE FROM FOREVER LAZY.

Anywho, I saw a story for Forever Lazy on a reputable website (CNN of all places) and decided to check into it. The first site I checked did not have a secure website, so I passed. The second one, which is https://www.orderforeverlazy.com/ appeared to be what I needed.

After picking my two colors (as the site CLEARLY says buy one, get one free, pay $7.95 shipping) and filling in the information and card information, it takes you through a series of pages with things they want you to add on.

I am not an idiot and I know most of their money is made in shipping and handling by charging said shipping and handling on each added on item, even though they all ship together. This scam has been going on a long time.

What I DID have a problem with was once I got done with a dizzying amount of "add this to your order pages" it just jumped immediately to "Thanks! Your Order is Complete". FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF $91.00!

WHAT THE FUCK?!? NO confirm your order page. NO page that shows what the total is going to be before you hit submit. NOTHING.

On top of that, they didn't give me a buy one get one free, they charged me $29.99 for BOTH onsies and also $15.95 for shipping for BOTH onsies. LIVID.

Total scam. I got taken. That is why I am sharing my shame with you so you won't get taken either.

I called them immediately (Forever Lazy® P.O. Box 3179 Wallingford, CT 06494 Phone: 1-866-684-0473) and OF COURSE they have no record of my order and therefore cannot cancel or edit it. "It hasn't hit their system yet". The answer is to call back BEFORE 24 hours has passed because it will just automatically ship after that. You know when your order posts? About 3:00am. Sometime when you will NOT be near a phone or computer to catch it before it does.

They gave me a website: https://www.customerstatus.com/Default.aspx which they told me would allow me to cancel said order. I checked that motherfucker at LEAST 20 times before 12:00am; nothing. I called FOUR times to see if there was something on their end; nothing.

Actually, I got a hold of one lady that told me my order had been cancelled. I let her know that was fairly impossible as I had not asked for it to be cancelled yet, so I wasn't sure what she was looking at. She was quite insistent that it had and after further pressing, she finally read the name on the order that was cancelled (in February no less) and of course it wasn't mine. She was just looking up orders from my zip code. FUCKTARDS.

So IMMEDIATELY upon waking the next morning (7:30am) I checked the website again. It had posted, but there is NO WHERE on the site that you can edit it.

I immediately called and "Brian" told me there was just nothing he could do because OF COURSE it had "shipped".

Brian: "BUT!! There are two options Miss Jessica! When you receive it you can return it."

Me: "BUT, I don't want to pay that $30.00 in shipping. That is a majority of my complaint"

Brian: "OR I have a second option, I can waive $28.00 of that order and your total will be $60.00"

Me: "FINE"

LET ME TELL YOU, it was NOT fine. I am not FINE with being charged for both. I am not FINE with there not being a total and submit page. I am not FINE with them charging me EXTRA shipping and handling for the two free footies they throw in the order (without my consent). I am not FINE with their OBVIOUS scams.

And the kicker...

Brian: "Miss Jessica, this will be shipping out to you by the end of the week"

Me: "WAIT A SECOND!! I thought you said..." *click*

That's right people, duped again. Fucking thing hadn't shipped yet!!!!!!!!!!! That mother fucker lied his balls off. Actually, they all did. There is no reason in the world that there should be a delay from the time you order. There is no reason in the world they shouldn't be up front about things.

Greed.

SURE you can go through the process of disputing charges with your bank. SURE you can do a lot of things. But like me, you are probably pretty busy and unfortunately, by the end of the day, it just isn't worth my time to dispute the remaining $60.00. Yes, that is two cases of beer and a 12 pack, but damn. Having already had the run around with the asswipes at Forever Lazy answering service, how many people do you know who want to call their bank and go through it with them? Truth be told, I did call my bank, and they were nice, but can't do anything until AFTER the charge has been charged. THEN I can call back again and make a claim. SO not worth the $60.00.

OK, so kids, lesson here is just to buy all that "As Seen On TV" shit at CVS, Walgreens or Wal-Mart.

P.S. I still love my Snuggie. But Krystal's Mom gave us those.

P.P.S. I will do a review on my Forever Lazy onsies when they come. They better be awesome. $60.00 awesome.

Report those bastards to the BBB, please!

CJ - they have been reported a BAZILLION times. It doesn't matter. By the time they catch up to them, they will just take the site down, "sell" the business to someone else and then outsource making the product overseas. It is a slippery slope. These infomercial companies are not concerned with keeping customers, as they know their products are short term marketing items, so the name of the game is get as much money as you can and just *poof* go away.

Hope your onsies will be fabulous!

Call your credit card company and dispute the charge?

See, that's what happens when you order from TV. I did that once for these amazing bras - they looked so comfy. I'm a huge fan of wire bras, however not a fan of the pain it causes so I order a pair. Well, they shipped all 4 of my bras in 4 different packages and $10.00 is shipping which came to a total of $40.00 + tax which were more than the $19.99 for all 4 bras! It's a scam and they fail to tell you that if you buy more than one, they will charge you up the wazoo for extra - however, it's in the fine print, the very fuzzy tiny lettering on the wayyyy bottom of the screen that's shown for a SPLIT second. Loopholes are wonderful. Buy your stuff from reputable companies.

Umm, how does Krystal feel about your sex onsies? LOL!!!!

LilliGirl said...

Sex onesies? Huh? I guess it did look like it had easy access from the backside.

How many times will she pull your flap and laugh hysterically at you as she runs away drunk I wonder?

Trooper Thorn said...

For that much money, it better come already 'bedazzled'.

Thanks so much for that info...I went to Kmart.com and searched 'forever lazy' and bought 2 for 14.95 each, plus $6 (something) shipping. Again, thanks for the heads-up.

Oh my fucking god. A onesie for adults ? That is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. How about Forever Retarded ! Give me fucking break. It is actually sickening and laughable that someone would be stupid enough to buy such a product. Why dont you put on a diaper so you can truly go back to your infant years ! Then you can shit and piss yourself without ever leaving your couch !!!! Ahhaaaaa haaahaaa haahaaa ahhhaaa haaaaaa !!!!! Oh my fucking god I have never laughed so hard in my life ! A onesie for adults, those are designed for babies for a reason. Because if you weigh more than 25 or 30 pounds and can eat by yourself and go to the potty like a big boy or big girl you dont need a one piece outfit thats easy to clean beacause you got spit up, shit stains or your drool on it !! Oh god, im crying im laughing so hard !!!!! Seriously, what a bunch of dumbasses ! You're killing me... Bwaaa haaa haaa haaa haaaa.... Ahhhh haaa haa haaaa haaa. Fucking idiots....

Thank you ...I'm so glad I didn't order!

Thank you for your review. You just talked me out of ordering from their website or by calling them. I will find it somewhere, like I did my Snuggie. You really should report them to the Attorney General's consumer fraud dept., if your state has that.
