This is my fifth request. Maybe I should write to the CEO of Otter Man. Newspaper

First of all spoke with Larissa she explained everything and put me onto the automated credit card. It didn’t take my numbers so I tried second time no luck. Spoke with Tonya and still no luck that I

AI Highlights
  • Spoke with Larissa, Tonya, and others about credit card issues; they were courteous, and the products are excellent.

Spoke with Larissa and Tonya and a few others maybe five times because my credit card number would not go through the automated system, so I would like you to know who I spoke with and how they treated me with courteous words. I guess I could say being a patron that your automated system just plain sucks, but to say the least, I look forward to your products.

I wouldn't go anywhere else. Please pass this along. Your products are very excellent. Call me anytime.

I'll get a new phone number. 16.

Bottom of the case has split and the protective flap has broken off, causing dust and dirt to accumulate and will not charge properly. I am very disappointed as this case is a replacement for my original case which was the model that was MUCH BEEFIER WITH EXTRA CORNER PROTECTION.

Bad phone case, was sent wrong replacement

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Replacement iPhone case arrived but was wrong.
  • I emailed the company to intercept and send the correct case.
  • No response yet; the wrong case arrived.

When I finally got a ship date on my replacement case for my iPhone, I realized it was the wrong case! I immediately reached out through email with the company trying to intercept the shipment and get the right case sent. As of today, I still have not heard anything, and as luck would have it the wrong case showed up at my house.

User's recommendation: Try to talk directly to somebody rather than use email
