Bad review

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Cites poor service; Case#:230726-****93; long-time user (50+ yrs).
  • Left a negative pissed consumer review after 19,000 showers and no longer a customer.

Thanks to your nonexistent customer service to a customer Case#:230726-****93 who has never had any other soap touch his body since 1970 or his wife's body since the late 1970s, I gave you a bad review on pissed consumer #505**** and after 50+ years of using nothing but your soap, I am no longer a customer.

After over 19,000 showers, the honeymoon is over.

User's recommendation: Don't buy. If you get a bad batch, you are out of money, they won't refund or replace.

Great soap, but they don't give a S#*t about their customers.

AI Highlights
  • Longtime Dr. Bronners user since 1970; batch was thin, scentless; over $60/gal; no replacement without receipt; later found cheaper Castile soap.

After using nothing but Dr Bronners soap on my body for over 19,000 days (from1970 until present, and my wife for 45 years, we got a bad batch. Thin, no scent, not sudsy, one gallon for over $60.00 I called.

I gave them the batch number, told them I have used no other soap since 1970, and expected a replacement.

They said without a sales receipt they would do nothing.

I asked them if they wanted the bad batch number, and the answer was If you insist, but it won't do any good.

I told them I bought the bad batch a few weeks before I ran out, and didn't save the receipt, since I have never had a problem before.

And basically it was "too bad".

After over 19,000 showers for me, 16,000 showers for my wife, and a diluted bottle in a pump jar on the bathroom sink and kitchen sink for over 50 years, I found another liquid Castile soap, that not only works as well as Dr. Bronners, but only costs $40 00 per gallon.

Every company is in the public service business, and this company doesn't care one bit about their customers.

Loss:
$65
Pros:
  • Pleasant scent
  • Cleans well
Cons:
  • Expensive and customer service sucks

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Stay away. If you get a bad batch, you're screwed.
