Poor customer service

Shocking customer experience with Alex at Rodial.

After emailing the company about how dissatisfied I was with a product and asked for a refund which was declined the company have now blocked my email address and made it impossible for me to contact them .

I asked Alex on several occasions for details of their complaints process but this was never provided.

Not a great customer experience and will definitely not buy any further products from Rodial.

After having made many purchases from…

After having made many purchases from this company, Rodial. My last purchase included the B venom eye patches. They were $19. When I got them, it was one set of patches after doing a Google search I found that the same brand could be purchased for nine dollars. I reached out to the company and got an AI bot. Finally was escalated to a human by the name of Alex. Alex wrote me the same thing every time, and when I said to them that I would no longer be purchasing their products and that they didn’t care about consumer retention I was blocked.
These are very expensive products. I probably purchased well over $500 worth of products. They don’t care and have no return policy. They don’t like what you say they block you read the reviews regarding the workplace toxicity at this company. I’m very disappointed because I like their products.

Hi Elizabeth,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I'm really sorry to hear about your experience and can understand your frustration, especially as someone who has supported us over time.

Just to clarify, we do have a return policy which is available on our website. We also want to reassure you that we never block customers for sharing their views. While we try to keep our pricing fair, we’re not able to match prices from unofficial resellers.

We’re genuinely sorry to hear you’ve been left feeling this way and appreciate you taking the time to reach out.

Best wishes,

Dear Debra,

Thank you for getting in touch.

We're so pleased to hear you’re enjoying the Banana Lowlighter, though we're sorry the Glow Drops didn’t meet your expectations.

Sadly we’re only able to accept returns on items that are unopened, unused and in a re-saleable condition, in the interest of hygiene. We do appreciate your understanding, as this helps us maintain the highest standards for all our customers.

If you’d like help finding an alternative, we’d be happy to offer tailored advice. We’ve also sent you a message to follow up.

Kind regards,

Syhem

Crisis Averted

I recently purchased the Bee Venom Box Set from the website prior to leaving Hawaii. I wanted to ensure I had my products before I moved off island, so I placed the order at the beginning of April with the notion I’d have it by the end of April. When shipping lost my package, I reached out to customer service to explain the dilemma and informed them of my timeline of the move. They were immediately empathetic and jumped right into action, contacting FedEx to try and figure out the problem. When FedEx didn’t help at all, the Rodial Team jumped into action and placed a new order for me free of charge. They also stated that if I didn’t get my package by a certain date, they would be more than happy to issue a refund, which I didn’t want. I just wanted my skin care! Thankfully though, I received my skin care in the timeframe they had given me and was able to leave the island without further hiccups. The customer service was prompt, courteous, understanding and extremely knowledgeable. I’ll forever be a Rodial customer because of their actions!

Order arrived quickly and I began using immediately - morning and night. I guess it's too early to define how well the product delivers on its promises - I'll return again to report!
On a positive note - I have extremely sensitive facial skin which commonly flares-up when I try something 'new' but I've suffered no issues whatsoever with Rodial Bee Venom & Placenta 24 Caray Gold which is a first 'good' indicator.

Amazing customer service

I’m a big fan of the skin tint but recently attempted to purchase the bee venom face wash. There was a glitch with the website and I ended up missing the sale and was so annoyed. I reached out to customer service and they fixed the glitch and honored the discount. They got back to me so fast and were so easy to deal with. Even checked on my purchase after everything was good. Excellent customer service!!! And obviously great products!!!!
