Monday I send them copy of my id, my linkedin profile, copy of my previous online order from them and an email from my work email so they can confirm my identity that is Linked to a work domain. I dont get any response back. Tuesday I reach out to them again asking if everything is fine and if they are processing my request. No response. Wednesday I started to get worried since my credit card is charged. At this point they charged my card, your card being charged is your response that the order was approved. NOW THINK ABOUT THIS FOR A SECOND. B&H photo charges your card, doesn't ship the product, says we think its suspicious, ignores all your communication efforts and keeps your money as well as the product. Who is the thief and the fraudster here? How is this professional or ethical in any way?? you're changing your story. you used a credit card, likely a new card not previously used with b&h and one with a mismatched billing & shipping address, along with a new email address to b&h and possibly other factors, which triggered a fraud alert. they requested additional information, which you provided. apparently they were satisfied since they *processed* *the* *order* by charging your card, yet you continued to harass them. b&h was no doubt thrilled to cancel your order and unleash you on one of their competitors. This was all happening because the billing address and the shipping address was not the same. that's almost certainly what triggered the fraud alert, along with using a new email address, likely one that has a higher incidence of fraud (e.g., yahoo). next time, don't do that. |

And for those reading these comments, just to summarize, imagine a company who charges your card, then accuses you of being a fraudster and holds your order hostage, ignores the documentation you sent and then ignores all your emails completely leaving you hanging and wondering what the hell is going on to a point where you cancel the order and then when you leave a negative comment replies back saying you "continued to harasses them". I will leave the judgement to you and leave it at that. you're lying. first you said you placed an order, which happened to trigger a fraud alert because of mismatched addresses (and likely other factors), so b&h requested additional info, which you provided. they reviewed it, accepted its validity and then charged your card. you've now changed your story to you placed an order, then they charged your card but refused to complete the order until you provided additional info and also cut off communication. both can't be true, which means you are trolling. you could have also checked the order status at any time, without needing to email or call. Now just compare this to other eCommerce businesses customer services and how they work above and beyond for customer satisfaction. WOULD YOU NOW CONTINUE BUYING FROM B&H??? absolutely. b&h is one of the most reputable companies and has been around since before there was ecommerce. nothing is perfect and out of millions of orders, there will be a few people who encounter problems. |

I've purchased tens of thousands of dollars of equipment from B&H for a major university and only had one problem they didn't satisfy. We bought a Presonus mixer that had perfect packaging. A side panel was damaged; probably at the factory. B&H didn't supply us with a new piece. |

These irresponsible decisions of theirs will eventually get back to hunt them... b&h has been in business for ~50 years, so they're obviously doing something right, and given their size, something very, very right. nothing is perfect and there is the occasional problem, no matter what company. |
