Re: Beware: weighted blanket never arrived

[Guest guest]

I would dispute the amount on my credit card - call them immediately and they

will give you a refund.

[ ] Beware: weighted blanket never arrived

Someone here (or possibly on one of my other ASD lists) suggested I

order a weighted blanket from www.myweightedblankets.com. I did order

one and paid by credit card. However, the blanket never arrived and it

has been at least 6 months. I have emailed this person several times

using contact info on her website, with no reply.

This is the first time I have not received something I ordered online

and I consider myself fortunate. But when I see her website still up,

it bothers me. Who should I complain to about not receiving my

product? Any other ideas on getting weighted blankets?

Thanks,

Beth

Beth, if you or someone you know is good with a sewing machine, I

suggest using the instructions here to make your own weighted

blanket:

exp_id=39 & name=%20A.%20May-Benson

(You'll need to cut and paste that link into your browser - the

relevant information is halfway down the page.) A kind relative of

ours made one for us, and it is beautiful.

best wishes

Ironically, I now see that weighted blanket business that you had

trouble with also has instructions for making your own blanket:

Contact your credit card company to get the charge reversed. You don't have

to pay for something you never received.

Isn't there a time limit for disputed charges? 90 days or so? I've

never done it, but I seem to recall hearing time limits.

Check out .com for info on how to dispute charges. I'm

pretty sure his radio show is where I keep hearing about this.

I'm not sure about a time limit. Just call your credit card company and

explain what happened. They will advise you from there.
