I called HO at 3:50pm today

Told me that a call back time is 5 hrs - 5min to 6 hrs - 14 mins

They haven't called me yet.

I received my supply order today - no FREE receipts, SB envelopes bent and wrinkled along with the consultant agreements. - I received SB cookbooks from the SS 07 when I ordered SB SS 09.

I just can't believe this

:chef:
 
I got one at 9:30 last night. . .after my husband already went to bed. :mad:

I waited for about 3 minutes for someone to pick up and finally just hung up on them.
 
I waited for 1.5 hours but then got tired of waiting, since there was no Call back option
:(.

but right now it is 10:51 pm

I want to go to bed - I have been down with this crazy flu and I am very tried.

I know they have been very busy lately and the call back times are estimated by the call volume. I tried calling earlier and got no call back option. They also forgot the receipts in my supply order. I'm just going to email them.

I have never done that

do I just put in the e-mail what I put above - do I need to a supply order number and if so is that the 4 digit number under shipment status or would it be on the supply order paper that I received with the order???

Sorry for so many questions

what is the correct e-mail address

:chef:
 
I would just put what you put above. Not sure about supply order number but all they have to do is look you up and they'll see your last supply order. I too had problems with my supply order. We don't get free receipts in our supply orders but I ordered 100 S/S 09 catalogs and 25 F/W ones to hold me through to the end of the month. I received 125 S/S and I needed the F/W ones NOW!! I called and they sent me new F/W ones immediately (called Thurs, got Monday, no weekend deliveries in Canada) and I'm keeping the extra 25 S/S ones FREE ($23 here! WOOHOO!)

As for an address, is there an address on CC for Support Service? There is on our CC. Sorry, reading back I don't think I was much help...
 
I called this morning around 8 am my time and I never did get my call back either so I guess we are in the same boat.

I had done a supply order on Feb. 1st and still today it doesn't even show up on the shipping status page and when I talked to them yesterday they couldn't figure out why it wouldn't let them release it and so I was suppose to call back today and never got the call back and I am needing that supply order I AM OUT OF CATALOGS !!!! :\ and I need them to finish this month with parties and hostess packets. Here is the funnier part the 2 adjustments and 1 replacement orders I did today they already shipped out. So frustrating.....

Actually you can do it straight from CC. Go to the top left red tab (Manage your Business), pull down to HO Contacts, click on HO emails. From there click on Solution Center and fill out the form. Takes care of it for you. If they have any questions they will email you back!
 
Teresa,

Do a product adjustment. It's probably the last one with an S in the "show" number on the list.

It's easy to do all that and works great - you can click on what was wrong with each item. The only thing I'm not sure about is the free order forms since they won't be listed.

Thank You

I just didn't know about the things that weren't on there how to enter them at first but I figured it out. Thanks

The only thing is the FREE receipts - I don't have the item # for that.

Did anyone else receive their FREE receipts if so what is the item # on the bottom of the receipts

Thanks again (I just LOVE this website - everyone is so helpful)

Teresa

SAME thing is happening w/me & my supply order. I am on hold w/them now. Something about the Feb 1st orders I guess.
 
Ok, finally got through. The lady today said they would "release" my order today. I told her that was suppose to have been released Wed. She said she was giving it to her supervisor. We'll see what happens now.
 
I just called and they said the order doesn't even show up and I ended up calling career solutions cause I already have a 3 hour wait time through solution center which is totally stupid. I am getting so frustrated about this.
 
FYI- if you do the call back option, they only make c/b until 9pm. After that, everyone goes into a holding pattern. I had a c/b the other day at 8:55 and waited until 10:15 to finally talk to someone! I asked her why they did c/b if I still had to wait and she told me the 9pm rule.
 
What's going on with HO right now?? Call back as of 6:54am Pacific time was 2.5 hours :O. And shipping seems to be A MESS! :O
 
I just checked my order status & still nothing on my supply order BUT my sample order that I ordered Jan 31st & rec'd on Feb 4th shows to be picking. Interesting :)
 
Is this normal for end of January since I imagine everyone was submitting as much as humanly possible at the end of the month to get the double incentive points? Just my guess for the chaos
 
I received a call back at 11:15 one night at Christmas time. So, I'm not sure about the 9pm c/b rule all the time. THat would have been 10:15 Chicago time. I just went the email route yesterday b/c I read on here that the wait time was 9 hours for a c/b! Of course, I haven't gotten it resolved yet, but I guess beggars can't be choosers, right?
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Why haven't I received a call back yet?

There could be several reasons for the delay in receiving a call back. It’s possible that the consultant is busy with other clients or events, or they may have missed your message. If it has been a while, consider reaching out again to follow up.

How long should I wait before following up?

It’s generally a good idea to wait about 48 to 72 hours before following up. This gives the consultant enough time to respond while also showing your interest in their services.

What if I never hear back at all?

If you haven’t heard back after a follow-up, it may be best to explore other options. You can try contacting another consultant or reach out to the Pampered Chef customer service for assistance.

Is there a chance my message got lost?

Yes, messages can sometimes get lost in busy inboxes or overlooked. If you suspect this might be the case, sending a polite follow-up message can help ensure your inquiry is seen.

Can I contact someone else if I don’t get a response?

Absolutely! If you’re not getting a response from one consultant, feel free to reach out to another Pampered Chef consultant or contact the company directly for support.
