I recall seeing a mention on the Cherrypal website about being hacked back in December and again in January. Is it just possible that there may be a connection between your order apparently being lost, his lack of correspondence with you, and... your missing billing?
So they get hacked on a monthly basis?

And they keep customer order info (including CC numbers?) on their website, within easy reach of hackers? All of their company records, apparently? Their only copy?

And they continue to do this even after the first hacking?

Why not take a chill pill and remake contact with Cherrypal.
He's tried.

Quote:
Maybe he lost your info.
Reputable companies do not "lose" the info of numerous customers.

Their billing info, even if they left lying around on their website and some moronic hacker (instead of just quietly stealing it) destroyed it, would be available through their credit card clearinghouse; they'd just have to pull up a report and have all that they needed.

Quote:
I get busy and forget all kinds of things, like right now I'm forgetting to go to sleep.
Reputable companies do not "get busy and forget all kinds of things" ... like shipping customers' orders, returning phone calls, answering emails, etc.

Remember, I started out in this discussion with no bias in favor of either side. I'm going solely on what I've read -- and on the behavior of the people involved. So far ... well, the Cherrypal shills' lips are moving.

Blah Blah you didn't answer my question so I'll try again. When you are happy with a product do you normally search the web looking for people complaining about the product so you can defend it? Or are you so extremely happy with Cherrypal that this is the first time you felt compelled to search for unhappy customers?

I was one of the few who offered "Hey, give them a chance" when this trainwreck first started after Christmas.

It has been FOUR MONTHS and instead of delivering products that people have already paid for, the company is still only offering excuses.

Sorry but they had their chance.

He may be paranoid and I'm not suggesting that anyone is out to get him, but after the way he has behaved on here, if I ever came across him I would be tempted to give him a good slap. Not that I'm advocating violence you understand...

Rest assured TGS, that I know how to defend myself, and laying hands on me would be one of the biggest mistakes that you could ever make.

Velcro, you have worked so hard to put yourself outside the pale of this little society that people's interactions with you are not typical of their interactions with other people, and they will act towards you in ways which would not be considered socially acceptable if they involved a different person.

In other words, you came in here and acted like a (fill in the blank here, I don't want to get banned) and you're now surprised you're being treated accordingly?

Oh Velcro, you have no idea of the magnitude of some of the mistakes I've made - I don't think laying hands on you gets anywhere near the top!

However, you will note - if you bothered to read my last post - that what I said was that I would be tempted to give you a slap. This is an expression of the way I feel about the way you have behaved on here. It is not a threat, an undertaking or a promise - no-one has a contract out on you.

Yes, you are an annoying little toe-rag - I'll put it no stronger than that - but annoying in much the same way as a stone in the shoe is annoying - easily removed and of no real consequence.

LET ME PUT IT THIS WAY:

This thread is in danger of being closed due to the childish hammerings going on between a number of readers, in addition to the back and forth insults that have occurred - and with no let up in sight.

A number of people have contributed to these ill-feelings.

Please stop.

I vote for closing it. Everything that could be said about the original topic *has* been said.

If anyone ever does receive a Cherrypal, or gets a refund, or files a lawsuit, then I'm sure they would be happy to start a new thread.

Otherwise,
