Rating:I Purchased a snow bear snowplow custom mount on January 11, 2020; vendor #281 shipped it via UPS from Buffalo, New York to Mount vernon, Ohio – a 3 1/2 hour drive. It was lost by UPS at one of their Columbus, OH facilities on January 20, as per the company's website tracking, and I have not received my item as of February 7, 2020. I was finally able to get the Indian-origin people at UPS to understand what they have done, and they filed a claim on January 31- now, they tell me I have to contact the seller to get any satisfaction. I have not received a response from the seller, and GoVet.com's contact/resolutiin website is unendurable. As a 50% disabled United States military veteran, I recommend avoiding using GoVets.com – based on my own personal experience.

Dissatisfied Electrical Contractor 02/24/2020 at 03:55 AM
Rating:We are an Electrical Contractor and this is by far the most INCOMPETENT & CROOKED company we have EVER had the displeasure of doing business with. Their lack of customer service and communication is outstanding! We love our vets and we were initially excited to have found their website. DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE! Short and sweet version: They severely slack on processing their orders & shipped the material more than 24 hours AFTER we requested the order be cancelled. Then after a month of correspondence regarding a return, they insisted that WE pay for return shipping as well as a 20-30% restocking fee.
Long version…
We ordered material on September 25th.
On October 4th at 7:39am we requested a cancellation. This was due to lack of communication regarding the status of this order as we had not received notification that the order had been processed let alone shipped. This request was received by their support team and acknowledged the same day at 10:55am, we were told that our cancellation was a high priority, to be processed “ASAP”.
NO COMMUNICATION FROM THIS COMPANY FOR 5 DAYS!
On October 9th we received an automatic notification that the order had been SHIPPED! At this point its been over THREE weeks from the date we placed the order & more than a week after we requested it to be cancelled! We politely followed up with their team TWICE that same day & did NOT receive a response.
NO COMMUNICATION FROM THIS COMPANY FOR 4 DAYS!
On October 13th, they finally responded... Read more

I requested to cancel the order and receive a refund. Nothing has happened. They are holding my money and not providing products. I've placed two calls to customer service. Now they aren't even answering their phones. I sent customer service an email. No response. I have filed disputes with my credit card company.

Rating:I have never dealt with a company that was so hard to reach a real person and one that constantly sends what we tend to call "rubber-stamp" replies for feedback. That just adds frustration to customers and certainly does not lead to positive company feedback.
The sparce email feedback that had been received had contradictory comments in the email about when the product was going to ship as well as a statement that a full refund would be applied: that sort of feedback doesn't make sense and makes one wonder who steering the GoVets " ship"?
One email (not rubber stamp reply) indicated that a shipment from your supplier would occur on 4/15: it is now 4/16 can someone please verify if that has occurred? We all know that the COVID problem is having an impact but using it as a blanket excuse just frustrates buyers even further. I'm beginning to wonder if the SCAM reputation might be true as it's been 3 weeks and no shipment.

Rating:This site is a scam. Bought a printer from them got it in and it doesn't work. Contacted govets.com same day for a return. I was told to contact the manufacturer that they would have to deal with me. The manufacturer says it will take a month to a month and a half from the time they receive the item for a refund. So just a heads up if you make a purchase and they send you a product that doesn't work it will take months to resolve and your money will be tied up the whole time. What a great way to screw people over in hard times with this COVID crap. Govets.com return policy is a lie.

I ordered on June 13, 2020, and GoVets confirmed the order that day, taking my $420.49 instantly stating they would let me know as soon as my order shipped and give me a tracking number. 13 days later I had not received any communication from GoVets, so I emailed asking what was going on.

Although it has been over two years since your review, we believe it is important to set the record straight for our customers.

These factors impacted our ability to maintain our usual high standard of customer service.
Since then, we have made significant improvements. We have strengthened our operations, added new suppliers and products, and continue to remove those that do not meet our quality standards. We have learned many valuable lessons and have evolved as a company. Today, we are stronger and more committed than ever to supporting our customers and veterans as a service-disabled veteran-owned business.

Rating:They say misery likes company and it looks like I've got plenty of company here.
I placed an online order with GoVets on 9/7/22 and when I didn't receive an order confirmation back within 24 hours I sent an email cancelling my order. Three days later GoVets finally responded to me via email and said it was too late to cancel. Days later I received the product which I no longer need and I'm told by GoVets it's my responsibility to pay for return freight and a 15% restocking charge. Seems to me this company is accepting orders, dodging communication and making a huge profit on restocking fees. I've asked GoVets for a prepaid shipping label and to waive the restocking fees although as expected I've not heard back from them. So now I've disputed the charge with my VISA (so they'll never get their money), I've left them a crappy review on Google and filed a dispute with the BBB. How these people can use America and Veterans in their name is a shame to everyone who has ever served or even cares about this country. How do we warn more people about the scam this company (and their parent Veratics) is perpetrating?
