What people say

Thank you for your response

Thank you for your response, but your reply completely avoids the actual issue. I initially requested expedited shipping. When the shipment was delayed, I contacted your customer service and requested cancellation before the order was shipped. Your representative said the request would be forwarded to the support team, but I received no response. Instead, my cancellation request was ignored until the order was shipped. After that, I contacted iHerb multiple times through different channels, but my messages were repeatedly ignored. Eventually, I had no choice but to wait for the order. When the package finally arrived, it was completely damaged. Despite providing evidence, iHerb still refused to take responsibility or offer a fair resolution. Your response here mentions "concerning activity" without explaining what that means or providing any evidence. This vague statement does not answer my complaint and does not justify ignoring my cancellation request before shipment or refusing to resolve a damaged order. I expected transparency, fairness, and accountability from a global company. Unfortunately, my experience has been the opposite. I will continue pursuing this matter through the appropriate consumer protection authorities and my payment provider until it is resolved fairly.

There payment system is HORRIBLE...

There payment system is HORRIBLE. We have tried to use THREE different payment methods that we have NO problem with ANYWHERE else yet IHerb always says "The transaction cannot be completed". They used to be a GREAT website but now they are terrible. I think they must have some fraud or something because all three of our payment providers are FLAGGING their website for some reason. I even called my bank and they said that there is NO problem with our card, it is IHerb's payment system.

The package was delivered to the wrong house.

The delivery service never dropped off the package at my house. Instead, a neighbor on an adjoining street had the package left next to their garage door. It was found only when they were leaving their house. They were good enough to locate me (we didn't know one another) and subsequently delivered the package to us. I do not know when the package was left at their house.

Extremely disappointed with my recent…

Extremely disappointed with my recent IHerb experience. I received a large order that was not packed securely and the majority of items were moderately to severely damaged with some even leaking. I was denied a request to receive a refund or have damaged items replaced, although I submitted all information that was requested including multiple detailed photos. I had no option to speak with a real human with ability to reason, only an AI chat, and all attempts were futile. I will not be ordering from IHerb again and certainly will not be recommending them, as I did for years to friends and family when I was ordering through Vitacost.

I had a rocky start with iHerb

I had a rocky start with iHerb. The problem started when i received an emailed my order was delivered but no package showed up on my door step. There is no phone number to call anyone only Chat. Trying to navigate to find chat wasn’t easy. I wrote out my complaint and was told to wait 48 hrs. They said the carrier who delivers will notify you they delivered when they didn’t. It wasn’t quite 48 hrs when I tried contacting Chat again to no avail. It wouldn’t let me type my complaint. I take it they didn’t want to hear from me. After 48 hours I looked outside and I got my delivery. The product is good and reasonably priced. I was frustrated that AI has taken over and the customer is not important.

The only customer service available is via a chatbox that is VERY unreliable.

I liked iHerb and used this company to order many herbal products. But they started to send me items I had not ordered, and then they would NOT cancel my autoship orders. The only contact is via AI, a chatbox named Joy, which is terrible and can't answer the simplest questions. It absolutely canNOT be trusted to perform the actions I dictated. I no longer want to be their customer, BUT THEY CONTINUE TO SEND ME STUFF THAT I ALREADY CANCELED!

I was Not bad I will returnworried when I looked at the…

I was worried when I looked at the review on here. But wow very fast from the USA to the UK. So I odered two Solid Colognes on the 4th Aug and its arriving on my door step in about 3 hours on the 6th. I'm giving 4 stars as the tracking updates on there web page are screwed up. They send a e-mail saying it has been shipped but goto the web page and it will say package is ready for shipping and waiting to hand over to the courier in the next five days...very confusing for the customer...anyway next day it hit Heathrow Airport in the UK and that's when good tracking kicks in...so do not expect tracking within the USA

Packging needs to be more secure

Packging needs to be more secure. My item arrived damaged, twice now. Only refunds are available after providing a picture, no replacement.
