Default Speed Inc Troubles

I ordered a set of brake rotors from them awhile ago. They said they would be here at a time, but they arrived a week late when I needed them before that.

A week and a half later they accidently send me another set of rotors which they didn't charge me for. I e-mail them about it, they promptly charge the credit card and want me to figure out how to get them back with my busy schedule.

They did do a nice job sending a UPS man to pick them up. But I had to stay home to meet the UPS guy, and Speed Inc still hasn't credited the credit card.

I guess I'm just unlucky or something, but that the last time I order from them

I hear ya man, I had some problems with Speed Inc. as well. They (Speed Inc.) are like a god on this site so I'm sure your not going to get any support here.
Long story short......After April screwed my order up(on the product and on the shipping)Tom just lied to cover it up and made me promise's of "taking care of me on my NEXT order" ...yeah right like I'm ever going to order from them again...my advice shop at Thunder next time...I know I will !!

Dispute the charges with your credit card company. Its YOUR money, not theirs, take it back by force.

I have no doubts that they will pay me back, but the time it takes to get things done is ridiculous

I wouldn't buy anything again from them as well, I emailed them about a price for an item, and they emailed me back with the price but when I ordered the item they charged me a higher price. It's a good thing I saved the email or I would have been out of luck.

I would call them up, I'm sure they will take care of you no matter what, they are not there to screw you over, I've done plenty of business with them and they have always taken care of me, thats why I tell all my friends to go there, and they tell all their friends, they are by far the best around the midwest...

They will take care of you.....

do you have a tracking #? Does it say that Speed Inc has received the package? UPS is not the most reliable. They are a great company, I have dealt with them from afar for over a year now and have never had any problems and have received the best customer service. Just remember no body is perfect, I'm sure they are not trying to screw you over or anything. Have you talked to them recently, like before you made this post?
I wouldn't buy anything again from them as well, I emailed them about a price for an item, and they emailed me back with the price but when I ordered the item they charged me a higher price. It's a good thing I saved the email or I would have been out of luck.
Oh give me a break, was your experience with them that bad? It sounds like you ended up getting your part for the price quoted. Was the person who took your order the same person who sent the email? I always mention the email price quote to them when I finally order.

The credit was done the day after the rotors came in. It takes 24-48 hours for that to go thru.

mike02ss - mention the price when you order to insure you are charged correctly.

Tom did not realize that you got two sets of rotors until he saw your post on www.camaroz28.com so I think this thread is done it's not everything said in here is factual.
