I purchased 5 bottles of ACV gummies & received them on 11/30/22. I opened the box on 12/7/22. All 5 bottles have an expiration date of 4/2023. This is only 3 months away. I contacted ****************** to request an exchange of the expiring bottles for some fresh ones. ************* replied that they could not send a reshipment at the moment, but that if I had not used them by the time they expired **** would replace them. I replied that I would not be consuming any of them, & that I wanted to return them now. CC replied they could not guarantee the new order would be fresh so they would not do an exchange. Told me to hold onto the expiring bottles until ***** & then to contact **** to return them & that then **** would replace them. I was also offered a free bottle. I replied I would not be holding onto the gummies until *****. It took me 4 emails before I got the address to return the bottles. I called the ************ number for assistance. NO ONE EVER CALLED ME BACK. They state on their site they will do so, but that is a lie. I had to pay to return the expiring gummies to them, $20.35. ***** is over 90 days away, not the 30 day return guarantee stated on their website. This is NOT a 100% refund guarantee, nor is it hassle free returns. I will only be refunded 100%, I will be refunded the cost of my order, minus the $20.35 I had to pay to ship their expiring gummies back to them. This is DESPICABLE customer service. Goli is not delivering fresh products. They only cared they had my money, not that they sent me expiring products. **** didn't even take responsibility to pay for the expiring gummies to be returned. It was not about not liking the gummies. I have been purchasing them from stores for a couple of years. I just recently became a member on their site and placed my 1st order, only to receive expiring gummies. Gummies that cost me $20.35 to return. HORRIBLE.Business response

Goli refunded me for the price of the expiring gummies as well as for the shipping I paid to return them. They also sent me 5 bottles of the gummies that are not expiring. I am very pleased with this outcome.Initial Complaint

I have contacted customer service. I was not satisfied with their product, the product seemed to be dried out, and made me sick. I took pictures and sent it to them, asking for a refund. On their website they have this: Try it RISK-FREE! Our mission is to help you fall in love with your daily wellness routine through convenient and delicious products. If you're not completely satisfied with your Goli purchase, simply call us or email customer service and we'll give you a full, 100% hassle-free refund! They have been more then a hassle!!! Was in contact with 3 different people. One was asking me my symptoms when it made me sick, and if I contacted a doctor and other personal questions. I wanted a refund since I will not be using the items and they want me to pay the shipping in order to get a refund. The is false advertisement for 100% hassle free money back guaranteed if they refuse to refund and have a hassle about it.Business response

Goli has somehow started a subscription with their product. I have ordered from them in the past. However, I have been receiving an $81 order the past couple of months. I have emailed them to please cancel whatever subscription they have for me. I have also left voicemails and have heard nothing. Inbred this to stop and I have t been heard. It makes me highly suspicious of them.Business response

I never agreed to that. When I tried to return the package, they said I had to wait 6 wks. When the six wks were up, my email was returned saying that this email cannot be answered. Now they have sent me another box which I did not order or open and charged me another $199. I do not want this stuff. I have no address where to return and if I did I would not get a refund.
