    Purchased some Canon 118 "remanufactured" toner cartridges. Upon installing them into my Canon printer, it shows 20% remaining in cartridges. This should say 100%, even for non OEM cartridges.

    This order was placed by the customer on 2/24/25 (order# *******) and it was shipped on 2/25/25.There are no notes or emails or phone call records received from this customer, indicating he was having an issue with his new cartridge.  What most likely is happening is the printer is still reading the toner level in the cartridge he removed.  We suggest he do a cold restart on the printer and it will recognize the new cartridge at 100%.  The customer can contact us so we can walk him thru the process or he can view the instructions and video below for help.

    On 2-19-2025 I placed an order for a toner cartridge. It did not arrive. I called them at 866-313-2879 and was told that there was the state of Connecticut attached to my order for some reason. I live in Colorado. They told me I had to reorder (which I did for $24.76 on 3-3-2025) and I would receive a credit once it came back to them. They then told me the USPS lost it and it has not been returned. I told them it was not my fault and asked for the refund. Now the Connecticut portion has been removed from the original order? Hmm... They tell me something different each time I call. Not happy with this poor service. It prompted me to start a dispute with my Discover card. Which if not resolved I will still have to pay for an item I do not have. I think they are trying to send up a smoke screen to keep my $. They will find a way to say they never received it from USPS.

    So as it turns out, the original order placed by the customer did in fact have the wrong state listed on the address.  Originally, the customer selected CT and not CO as the state.  Our internal system flagged that error and before we sent out the product, we changed the state to CO.  Nothing suspicious about that.  Good customer service.  So now, where is the package. After investigating further with the US Post Office service, it was discovered there is NO tracking available on this package since 2/19/25.  It has been lost in the postal system somewhere.  This customer also started a chargeback to get her money back.  And we agree, she should get her money back on her original order.  We will allow the chargeback to go through, ultimately refunding the customer.  

    Please ask if the customer would consider retracting her negative comments about our service.  We provided the best customer service by correcting her address. Once the package leaves our facility we can no longer be responsible for its delivery.  We apologize for this inconvenience of course.

    I bought a OEM dell toner on march 9, 2023. When installed it said it was an unsupported or unresponsive product. When I called Ink Technologies I was told it wasn't returnable. It cost $341.00 before taxes. I was told to call dell to see if they would help me but dell just keeps transferring me and hanging up on me. I never got to talk to anyone about the issue.

    Dear ********,

     

    I spoke to the customer today and confirmed that the item that she purchased from us does not work in her printer.  She was told by Dell that the item she purchased only works in the Dell B3460 printer and she owns a Dell B2360 printer.  The tricky thing about this is that Dell has 2 other cartridges that work in all 3 printers, but not this specific product that she purchased.  We are very clear on our website that on the products page you can see what printers they work on, and on the printers page we only list the products for these printers.  If the customer used the navigation on our website she would have seen before purchasing it that this was not the correct cartridge for her printer.

     

    B2360dn Printer page (printer customer owns) that shows only 331-9803 and ******** go to her printer

    *************************************************************

     

    B3460dn Printer page (not the printer the customer owns) that shows the 331-9803, ********, 331-9807 products

    *************************************************************

     

    Product purchased (331-9807) that shows it only goes to B3460dn (printer that they do not own)

    ************************************************************************

     

    The issue is that we cannot take a Genuine OEM cartridge back that is open because we can no longer sell it as a genuine product.  This is the same reason that Dell will not take it back, BUT they are the one that carries the manufacturer’s warranty on the product and they could take it back if it was defective.

     

    I did speak to the customer and as a good faith gesture have agreed to send out a compatible toner cartridge that will fit her machine at no charge to her (********).  Although we do clearly list on our website what cartridges work with certain printers, we do feel bad for the customer and have agreed to send out a no charge cartridge that will work in her printer and we are absorbing the cost for this.  The customer is aware of this and was accepting of this resolution.  We have order ******* already set up and is shipping to her today.

     

    Please let me know if this email is adequate or if we need to respond directly to the link that was originally sent.  Also if we need to respond to the initial link, please confirm when this is needed to be done by.  I am typically not the one to respond to these and would feel better with waiting until next week when Linda returns (especially if this is going to be posted on our BBB listing).

     

    Thank you very much for following up on this with us.

    After my Order ******* was late in arriving I used the USPS tracking number to investigate why it was so late. I was told by USPS that the order was lost, possibly stolen and that the sender needs to file a claim before I could be compensated. I was told that because I was not the sender I had no standing to file a claim. When I contacted Ink Technologies I was told (via a chat) that I had to file the claim and that they didn't do that.. The tracking number for my order is **********************. In addition the company phone number ************* is worthless. It is impossible to speak to anyone and no one answers the phone at any of their automated menu options. My order was for 3 ink cartridges and the billed amount was $43.60

    The customer contacted us via email on 3/8/23, that he suspected his delivery/package had been stolen.  I have attached the USPS tracking activity.  It appears that USPS has in fact lost track of this package. It has been scanned 7 times since arriving in New York.  We have been in touch with USPS claims since the customer contacted us.  We opened an RMA in our system so we can track any further activity and we are resending the product to the customer today 3/9/23.

    It is unclear to us why he states no one answers the phone at our business.  We have 5 customer service reps who man the phones from 8 am to 6 pm EST, Monday thru Friday.

    Additionally, we file claims with USPS as well as all the other carriers all the time.  So we are quite well versed in how the process works.  And we did indeed file a claim with USPS.  

    A replacement will be shipping out this afternoon (3/9/23) and the customer will receive the tracking information in the morning (3/10/23).  It is shipping out USPS again, same method as his first order.

    Purchased printer cartridges from them. Did not need to use them until a few days ago only to find they sent the wrong ones. They will not exchange them now since they are "out of warranty".

    Business Response

    Date: 10/25/2022

    I have attached the invoice for this order.  The order was placed over 2 years ago and it was placed by the customer himself on our shopping cart.  We have no record of his calling us to discuss the situation, nor has he tried to open an RMA on our website.  At this point, we have no reason to believe he was sent the wrong product.  Perhaps he ordered the wrong product or after almost 2 1/2 years the product was no longer viable.  The customer did not state in his complaint what he received, so we cannot verify.  Our return policy is to not accept returns after 1 year.  However, if the customer wants to work with us, (that would mean calling in and telling us what product he did receive) then we can work something out.  This complaint is a little vague and the order is pretty old.

    Complaint: ********

    I am rejecting this response because: they knew of the parts shipped do not match. Their product is in their original shipping packages.  We have already pursued this has a felony charge. We will let the criminal court figure it out for them.
