Is Punk Case registered on BBB?
Punk Case is not registered on BBB. Therefore, this business has no BBB rating and accreditation.
DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY! IT IS A SCAM! BUYER BEWARE! I ordered a case and received a broken screen protector instead. Punk Case said I would have to return it and pay shipping. I refused and said they need to send what I paid for. As a replacement I got more broken screen protectors and A USED CASE I CRAP YOU NOT! Now they think it's a game and are responding to my detailed emails saying "we will send you a new screen protector" "your item is on its way" then they copied and pasted the ORIGINAL SHIPPING/tracking number so when I click on it it takes me to the original delivered status. This is a predatory person posing as a company. He/she is beating around the bush. When I sent photo evidence of the USED PHONE CASE with a sticker on it they say "it's not used you need to peel off the film, the instructions tell you that". It's all nonsense and this has happened to SEVERAL PEOPLE! The person on the other end of *******@punkcase.com is not going to help you and will make it into a game! Now this person has my card info, my full name, and my address! DO NOT EVER PURCHASE FROM THIS FAKE COMPANY IT IS A SCAAAAAAAAM! They will filter the comments on their Facebook page and remove anything negative! That includes comments by upset buyers across all their social media platforms! You will not get a refund and will receive items you didn't order. It's a total joke!
I purchased a IPhone 7+ phone cover for my daughter as she was paranoid about smashing it. It took 4 weeks to arrive and it was the incorrect one.
After trying to contact them through 3 or 4 different channels Punk Case finally replied after a week. After numerous emails they expected me to send back the incorrect case they had sent at my expense before they would send the phone case that I paid for. This would be a 7 week turnaround at the pace they work at. Still waiting on a reply after I told them this would not be good enough.
Beware... Do NOT buy. Terrible customer service. I'm pretty sure its a 16 year old working from his Mum and Dad's basement due to the lack of understanding of customer service and terrible responses. It's a shame because the cases seem decent quality.
They seem to filter out and delete bad reviews on there Facebook page, I think you can tell by the amount of angry Emoji faces.
The case I ordered and the case i received twice are attached in pictures. They do not match.
You can only email this company. It's impossible to call and reach a human being, and even if you are lucky enough to leave a message on their answering machine, they will not call you back. I've also tried to contact them through their Facebook page, but that is also not possible, and they repeatedly delete the honest bad review that I post on their Facebook page on a daily basis. They only want consumers to see the bogus good reviews.
This is what we went through with them because of THEIR MISTAKE: They sent us the wrong item. I contacted them to advise them of this, and received one email back from them offering either a 20% discount OR an exchange. I opted for the exchange and then never heard back from them again. I keep sending them email after email, but they ignore me. I think they were full of you know what when they made the 20% discount option OR exchange offer, never intending to do the exchange, and who knows if they would have even done the 20% discount either. They probably expect most people to take the 20% off option, but my husband wanted what we ordered, and not the WRONG item that they sent us. I believe they try to run the clock out on you as regards being able to return items to them (despite it being THEIR MISTAKE). This is a pattern of behavior I've found out about them on other review sites.
Secondarily, they offer a 10% discount if you'll provide them with your email address. The first pop-up shown to you asks for your email address. This is misleading because they next require your telephone #. However, when you provide your phone # it doesn't state it needs to be a cell phone #, which I only found out that it did afer having provided my home phone #, which is a landline, the only phone that I have. After receiving my phone # it referenced sending a text message to you immediately with I guess an activation code for the measly 10% discount. They clearly want your phone # so as to be able to harass you with spamming text messages forever and ever after you purchase from them. Because I don't have a cell phone their activation message disappeared into the nethersphere of the world and I did not receive the 10% off despite having already given my email address as well as home phone #.
I wanted to call and ask for help in receiving the 10% discount, but funnily enough they don't list a telephone # on their website yet have the freaking nerve to want YOUR phone #. I did however find a phone # for them doing a general Google search. However, their phone system is an automated one, meaning there is no live human being to speak to. When you call that phone # it will only let you go to a voice mail. I ended up purchasing without obtaining the promised 10% discount, in the hopes that post-transacting with them they might retroactively apply the discount if I emailed them and explained the problem to them.
Trust me when I tell you they did NOT apply the discount, but LIED that they had. How do they think I'm not going to know that they didn't when I can clearly see the amount that I was charged and what I paid, none of which included that discount. I do I feel that it is discrimination against people with no cell phone #s to not provide a discount, and that their 10% discount offer was a "bait and switch" scam to obtain your cell phone #.
What reputable company doesn't have a telephone number listed AND that it is one that takes you to an actual human being? No one reputable, only disreputable companies and people.
After all of this, I read up more about this company on other review sites online, including the Better Business Bureau, and they have the worst reviews I've ever seen. Other people have reported the exact same issues I'm going through trying to deal with this company, and they have all been unsuccessful with doing so. As a result I have reported them to the BBB, will be posting reviews on every website that I found others' reviews on, and will have my credit card company deal with them as well. If I ran my business the way this company runs theirs, I'd be OUT of business!
I ordered a Military Grade Aluminum Case | Atomic Slim 2 Series case for my Galaxy S10 plus, which shipped the next day and arrived after around a month. On unpacking the case, the clear plastic back had a deep scratch over a centimetre long. The packaging was undamaged, so the damage didn't happen in transit - it was packed and shipped like that. The damage is so severe I suspect the case is a return and not new.
I contacted Punkcase immediately by replying to their shipping confirmation email with the order number and photos of the damaged case. Their form response reply requested the order number and photos, making me suspect this is an automated response. Punk Case eventually offered me a replacement, but only if I posted the original case back to them in the USA at my own cost. Since that would cost more than the value of the case, I'm just stuck with a damaged case. So I'd say their customer service is about on par with their quality control.
The case itself is okay, not on the same level as lifeproof, otterbox etc., and far from 'military grade'. The buttons protrude a long way out from the side and snag easily when pocketing the phone. They also have a slightly loose, plasticy feeling and I expect they will be the first point of failure (though to be fair I haven't been using the case so can't really tell how long they'll last). Overall, if I had no issues with my order and the return process, I feel the case is a bit overpriced even with the permanent 'discount' (another breach of the Australian Consumer Law) and would rate the company as 2/5 if they stood by their product by covering return shipping for damaged or incorrect orders.
With the order #351929 for a black punkcase mobile holder, I got a blueone instead. In addition to that, this thing without punkcase logo, imported from China, is available in India for half the price, and the assurances seen at punkcase.com creates an illusion that the item itself is superior and is manufactured by punkcase. This is clearly misleading.
I am not an ignorant guy and only because I thought I will get the product manufactured by Punkcase, I shelled out extra $6 and shipping cost, and bought it from punkcase.com website. After getting the product in hand, I finally understood that the same Chinese product is available in India at half the price!
The cover reveals it is a Chinese product and has no indication of punkcase logo or writings on it.
I had to attach extra layers of 3M tape under and over the base of the mobile holder, to keep the holder pasted onto the dashboard while it holds the mobile phone, which finally looks ugly. It cannot hold itself firm even without any mobile in it, on the dashboard at least 3 seconds with the adhesive tape provided with the item.
Also adding the links to the same product available at cheaper prices from $4.44 (INR 305) with free shipping, in India and all over the world.
The trust put in punkcase went in vain. I understand I paid an undeserving $13.97 (INR 958) amount for this kind of Chinese alligator clip and am feeling cheated and lost my money. For the money I paid on punkcase.com, I can buy 3 alligator clip mobile holders from aliexpress.com This is a product manufactured and supplied with out any quality assurance procedures.
Punkcase.com will simply won't publish any genuine reviews we write on their website, about the product's negatives.
After all punkcase customer care replied with an option to return the product where I will have to bear the return shipping fee, to get the product refund. Seeing the Punkcase logo on the product thinking that it is not the generic mobile holder, I decided to use it on the car dashboard, found the adhesive is very poor and cannot hold the mobile phone for even at least 2 seconds. Again the return shipping fee will be half the price of the item itself. So after returning the item, they promsed full refund around $9.98 where I already loose the amount I paid for shipping by punkcase and return shipping totaling $8, and paypal charges. So I simply lose more than $8 for getting a refund of $9.98.

Feb 9th, I got the case in the mail and realized I had ordered the wrong size of cell phone case. I immediately emailed the company and notified of the mistake and requested an exchange for the proper case.

Feb 16th, the cell phone case was sent in the main with the instructions of which product I'd like to exchange as requested. Postage paid by myself.
Feb 18th punkcase was provided with the Tracking information for the package.
March 2nd, I received notification it had arrived at the returns warehouse.
March 3rd Punk Case asked which product was to be exchanged although that information was already provided in the package itself.
By March 10th I emailed the company again waiting for a response that they were sending me a new cell phone case.
Emailed again March 15th for follow up. Still noting advised if they are sending a new case. I also called the phone number on the website for returns.
March 22nd - emailed them again -- I contacted your phone number over a week ago confirming why I have not received my new case yet! I still have not had any notification about the new iPhone 7 case that I requested being shipped!
Please explain to my why I am getting the run around on a product that I have paid for and now am not receiving!
The replacement case I want is this one.
Please advise immediately when I will be receiving it!
March 23rd - I got the new case in the mail, and it was the exact same case that was the wrong size in the first place.
It is now April 24th, I have made several attempts to contact the company via phone, and email. And still have had no response.
Buyer beware, if you have any issues with your product, you likely wont get any proper response. I'm now stuck with a case that I can't even use.
4 hours later and still no reply. I also tried calling the customer service line with no answer and a full mailbox.
I'm beyond unimpressed with their horrible all around service.
Save your time and money and just buy an Otterbox!

This company is a total scam - they don't say the product is being shipped from america, and only offer refunds on items within 30 days of the ORDER DATE. They say delivery can take 4 weeks - leaving 2 days to return a product overseas for a refund... total scam company. If you see their ads on facebook, amazon etc - REPORT THEM!
