          Nahhhhhh, they came before that comment ;) Maybe think about that one.

          1-2 months is ridiculous for a delivery from anywhere. Never have I had this from any company before.

          People are even getting paypal refunds. Neg completely justified.

          @northernculture:

          People arent getting paypal refunds. This company is trying to make people wait till after the PP disputes close then they said "after this time we will treat your package as lost and offer you a solution to resolve this issue."

          Wtf is a "Solution"?

      Exactly, thank you. 25 days has gone, they are not offering a refund to me, other people are getting annoued also and have requested a refund through paypal. Therefore negged.

      Mine was sent out 8 days after ordering

    Cancelled the order today for a full refund. Order status was still in processing.

  • sinners007 on 17/02/2017 - 17:10

    Gamiss are quick to spam me with rubbish advertising - not so quick to respond to my request regarding the whereabouts of my Miband 2. As a reference, another OzB favourite - the Jackly 32 in 1 toolkit from DD4, shipped on 9/2 and arrived here today (17/12). It's Paypal time.

      UPDATE: Gamiss responded via Paypal - same rubbish messages seen above except I was told to wait 45 business days - they are kidding right?

      • SBOB on 17/02/2017 - 18:29

        just escalate straight to paypal claim, as their response is clearly not a resolution

        • sinners007 on 17/02/2017 - 18:34

          I'll allow them the full 25 business days (next Thursday) they originally advertised, then escalate. Most people here are way past 25 business days and should claim now.

  • razgrizhan on 17/02/2017 - 19:55

    yeah still got the same reply waiting 25/35 waiting days/// i ordered on 2/1. If we get paypal refund but suddenly the item arrived can we keep it?? i will wait unitl next tuesday it will be 35 working days, after that i will paypal refund

    Spoke with PayPal on the phone.

    They checked the tracking and apparently the tracking numbers are all giving no response back. I asked them to check 17track.net and it came up. But here is the thing,

    Paypal deem any tracking number not active or no movement in the past 21 days as Invalid.

    Also, the tracking doesnt say delivered so it also makes it as Invalid.

    Gamiss has till feb 27th to find a new tracking number or probide adequate proof that its been delivered or a full refund will be given.

    Sorry to hear of all the trouble some people have had receiving their mi bands I have been using mine for about 2 weeks now and looking to buy more for my kids. What would be the best current price considering I don't want to buy from gamiss and have to wait as long as I had to for mine to arrive?

  • cloudie9 on 19/02/2017 - 14:34

    Guess what, I was confirming my address including my main contact mobile number, which differs to what I put into my order, my alternate number, they flatly refused to refund my money on that basis. Oh well, guess I have no choice but to seek PayPal's assistance. Never Gamiss again.

    • sinners007 on 19/02/2017 - 15:00

      If they are try to use ur different phone numbers as a way to avoid a refund - they are really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Don't waste your time dealing with them - go to Paypal. I was going to give them 25 business days but when they flat out lied to Paypal saying they didn't supply me with a tracking number, when in fact they provided it during our emails via Paypal resolution (so Paypal have evidence that they did - how stupid are they?) - I immediately escalated to a claim.

      • cloudie9 on 19/02/2017 - 16:09

        They are anyway, I just added my actual alternate number in my Paypal and told them to get fked since they can anytime verify with paypal all they want.

        • neofelis on 20/02/2017 - 21:21

          @sinners007:

          I think its because they dont have ANY valid tracking numbers.

      I have the same BS reply after threatening them with a Paypal claim.

      I wonder if I should bother replying and satisfying their request or simply just threaten with PP again.

      • sinners007 on 19/02/2017 - 21:59

        Escalate to claim. Their tracking number is BS so they will lose. They want us all to start harassing the post offices now… Unreal.

        In my reply they said there was no tracking number and to wait 45 business days because of bad weather & customs. Looks like they have dropped most of the nonsensical statements but still want us to wait 60 days.

          In my communication with them, they blamed Chinese New Year for the delay, when in fact the holidays don't start until the end of January. That is unless they only shipped it then for the early January orders?!

        • sinners007 on 21/02/2017 - 09:06
          +4

          So let me try & capture our findings … it was the Chinese new year's fault for delayed orders made 4 weeks prior; bad weather was a factor in the delays; our postie and our neighbours are thieves; giving Gamiss the wrong phone number voids any claim you have to a lost parcel; they gave us tracking numbers that apparently can't be tracked (but for Paypal purposes they can); 45 business day delivery is the new standard … does that about sum it up?

    the tracking number is the same one i got from gamiss and sent to paypal.

    I am not sure what i should do at the moment. it seems the only options for me are either cancel the claim or change my reason for the claim.

    shall I just wait for paypal to "confirm the tracking information"? Its been a week since the escalation.

    • sinners007 on 25/02/2017 - 10:57

      Don't cancel it. Just email PayPal and explain the item hasn't moved for xx days according to the tracking number you were supplied and you consider it as lost (item not received) … Or better yet call them. Then they will action a refund.

    Still waiting on mine.

    The tracking number doesn't even work any longer, ffs.

      Mine still works. Still stuck at 10 Jan arrived in Australia. What is your number?

      • Abbi on 28/02/2017 - 14:46

        Ok, just tried again, looks like it is up and going. May have been a problem at the time, I can't read the Chinese writing in the tracking website.

        I've been contacted by marketing and they said to confirm address and check with post office. If I do this and no luck then they will issue a refund. I've done all this so now I expect a full refund.

          Did they also ask you to interrogate your neighbours, like they did with some of us?

          You can change the language of the tracking website to English. The tab is on the top right hand corner "EN". We have collectively found that the tracking details could be erroneous and should not be trusted.

          If Gamiss delays (or gives you extra hoops to jump) your refund, I would suggest going through Paypal or your credit card provider.

        • Abbi on 28/02/2017 - 15:23

          @sinners007: Support did but marketing didn't. Ridiculous request isn't it? Just a joke. Last time I ever deal with this mob.

        • Abbi on 28/02/2017 - 15:25

          @OzBargainer2014: Ah got it, thanks. As you said, tracking details are rubbish and have not been updated since 13/1.

  • Pizdets on 01/03/2017 - 12:08

    received the refund from paypal today.

  • Abbi on 01/03/2017 - 18:32

    Still waiting on mine.

    I keep persisting in requesting a full refund but they just keep on sending the same rubbish messages all the time.

    PayPal reminded me I have till the 5th March to escalate! So I'll be sure to before the deadline, I spoke with someone at garmiss who said if I don't get any package by the 3rd they will organise something.. so if it's unsuitable it's PayPal claim time !

    I received this message:

    "Thank you for your message.
    After reviewing your order in detail, we have found that you haven't purchased any insurance during the check-out. Please understand that in such case we can only compensate you partially.

    The shipping company is actually responsible for this loss which is sadly beyond our control.
    Please review in detail our shipping and insurance policy in our terms and conditions here: http://www.gamiss.com/m-article-id-36.htm

    Here are the best solutions we can offer you in this situation:
    1.Resend the item upon repaying 50% of the order value.
    In this case we will send you an invoice to submit the payment of 8.9 USD via PayPal.

    Once again we apologize for any inconvenience caused.

    Best regards,
    Huannie
    Gamiss Support Team"

    "We have found that you haven't purchased any insurance during the check-out. Please understand that in such case we can only compensate you partially." -
    Can I still escalate the claim in this case? Would Paypal still approve?

      escalate directly to Paypal. Do not pass go, do not collect $8.90USD

      Huannie is hilarious. He/She has been the source of many laughs for me in this thread. Immediate escalate via Paypal. Don't waste any more time with these imbeciles.
