RE: Order confirmation from Shindigz W2478924
Dear Michael,
Thank you for your email. Im very sorry for the confusion that this order has caused you. Unfortunately the code that you used EM4DC is our employee discount code. You unfortunately are not eligible for this code and will not receive this discount and will have to pay shipping charges of $16.95. Your grand total of the order is $126.23 I will have your order on hold to see if you would like to continue with this order. Im very sorry for any inconvenience that this has caused you. Please let me know if you need further assistance.
Best Regards

So I sent them this response...
I found this code online doing a google search. The number of codes that turn up are confusing. Unfortunately, being the customer, I am unaware of the validity of the codes and use them in good faith. When the website accepts the code it agrees to the terms of that code.
I understand the shipping cost and that is the reason I contacted customer service. I took the initiative to contact your company and question why there were no charges. I am more than happy to pay the cost of shipping. If you are unable to honor that code fine, I will choose to do business with other customer centric online retailers.
Dear Michael,
Thank you for your email. Im very sorry. We can not honor the promotion for you. Im not sure how this code was given online. We are currently looking into that. As much as I would love to honor the code for you we can not. Im very sorry. Please let me know if you need further assistance.
Best Regards

Here is my last correspondence I never heard another word...
Please understand I did not cancel this order. It was your company that would not honor a coupon code found legitimately using Google Search. I will post my comments appropriately.
Thanks,

On Tuesday morning I placed a generous $380.66 order for parade float decorations to be shipped with "UPS Next Day Air Saver". It was important to me for delivery to arrive on Thursday to begin our float for the Saturday morning parade without last minute surprises so I paid $94.95 for this guaranteed next day shipping. Just when I was expecting delivery, I got email notification that my order had just shipped out. Upon calling, ShinDigz confirmed that they did indeed charge me for Next Day but that they just didn't get it out in time for that to happen. Receiving the order close to 7PM on Friday meant that I was on the phone to UPS customer service more than once and totaling an hour on hold for delivery tracking. Of course, I had hired help on the clock who had to give up waiting for UPS with me and go home. So I paid for help which couldn't help and then two of us burnt the midnight oil trying to make up for lost time. What was meant to be a fun experience for all to share in building our float, turned out to be a last minute panic attack. This complaint is two-fold so read on…
Although customer service was helpful in calculating material quantities for my 10X20 trailer, they gave me a huge bum steer on the magnetic tape for securing the fringe to the metal trailer. After paying $178 for 2 rolls of the tape, we quickly discovered that it couldn't secure a chicken feather. It was useless and a complete waste of time and money. That is not the worst of it, though. We found out at the last minute and had to scramble with good old duct tape. Two major faux pas on their part were negligence in delaying my Next Day shipping and the totally inferior product of magnetic tape, which left me to my own devices at the very last possible moment. Never again!. No thanks to Shindigz for the fact that I didn't get to sleep the night before the parade.
When I called to get the issue resolved, I was told that there was nothing they could do due to production having to remake the order. Now, I may be wrong in thinking that you can expedite a process and overnight the order to accommodate for your mistake - but maybe I expect too much when spending $60 on an order.
This wouldn't be so bad if I had received a full (not partial) refund. Being that I had multiple items in the order and I could still use ONE ITEM, they refused to refund me for it - despite the fact that I was told they would. I could've walked to the store to get the item that I was able to use. To make matters worse, my sister also ordered items form Shindigz for my daughter and she didn't receive her full order. They have successfully ruined the graduation surprise AND the party considering all decor was ordered through them! She has a balloon holder in her order that she can use later in life, so I am sure she won't be refunded in full either.
Spend your money elsewhere, and save your sanity knowing that your event will actually happen. The chance of them getting it wrong is higher than the chance of it being right!
*Oh, and order your Big Head stick and your banner and yard sign stakes separately. They don't even give you what you need to use the items you order given you actually receive it.

Hopefully my bank will honor my dispute because I have yet to receive anything or hear anything from this scamming company.
DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY!
So again... if you don't want to waste your time, don't order from here. You get what you pay for!
Ps: I NEVER leave reviews because I just don't have the time but for this one... I HAD TO!
After this review and a report to the BBB I immediately received a refund from Shidigz. I have no idea if the bad reviews caused them to refund my money. But just wanted to update that ShinDigz did something finally about it
Complaint:
I received half my order late after my venue date passed. I ordered them April 15th received May 17th. I kept them as I will use later. However the other half of my order never arrived. You can't speak to a person all you can do is use the chat online or email. The chat usually says there are no representatives available. I emailed them 8 days ago and get a canned response:
"Thank you for emailing Shindigz. Our Customer Care Team will respond to your email as soon as possible.
This past year has been challenging for everyone, but it's exciting to see the world opening up again and people beginning to celebrate with friends and family. Like many companies, we are eager to serve you and are ramping up after a yearlong COVID impact. We are adjusting and improving each day and our goal to serve you as quickly as possible."
Haven't heard a thing after 3 emails. Theft by no product received. Never will order from them again!
Placed a custom order well in advance for receipt by a certain date. Several days later I called to make sure everything was on track. The associate assured me that the shipping system would take into consideration the needed delivery date and prioritize my order to get it there when promised. Great. Another couple days go by and I finally get the tracking. Delivery slated for a day too late. Called again and had what I thought was an extremely helpful conversation with another associate. She put in a new high priority order to be shipped out later that day. So she claimed. I called (again) towards the end of the day to make sure all went well (since the shipping for that new order had a status of "NOT SHIPPED"). I then learn that she NEVER PUT THE ORDER IN. ShinDigz decided to just "hope and pray that the original order can make it there early" (verbatim). Interesting that they had no plans to update me about that. Here I go off to my event with NOTHING.
Lots of empty promises. Not a way to run a business.
I did call customer service, only because I was a bit worried about my order being late after having read others' reviews.
I would recommend this company for the quality and pricing of their products, as I did not have a problem with my order.
On May 12th I ordered several items for our daughters Sweet 16. Two of the key customized items were a large photo letter K (included ~ 15 custom pictures of family/friends on the letter) as well as a large Sweet 16 stand for photo opportunities. I paid expedited shipping to have the items here no later than the 27th.
As we sit here on the 28th, no only have the items not arrived, ShinDigz show "unshipped" on my account. Their customer service number is not accepting messages. I've email 3 times thru the site over the past several days and emailed twice on their separate email with NO RESPONSE.
Clearly it does not appear that the items will arrive but the complete lack of communication is unacceptable.
I thought I had a couple of special things for our daughters big day and now I have nothingvery disappointing.
We are opening a new location for our business in a few months and i will definitely be getting our "Grand Opening" banners from here.
As a business owner I realize the power of reviews on the Internet. So when a company provides us with 5 start service I always try and leave good on line feedback.
I will be referring your company to anyone I know who needs signs and banners.
Thanks

Do NOT order from this company unless you are ordering something from them way in advance. I ordered a banner for my Mother's 75th Birthday party which should have arrived regular shipping. I have used this company in past and received my products ahead of the anticipated delivery date. This time was not the case. The party date was coming up and I noticed it hadn't shipped yet. I contacted the company three times to ask them to expidite my order for me. I did not receive a response other than we got your message we'll be in touch. No response from them yet. After the party I wrote them twice and asked them to cancel my order and guess what? ShinDigz didn't respond but sent me a message today 17 days past my event that my order was delivered. Wow! Isn't that great! Never again.
I am not saying I could not have made a human error but there is no way to go back and check the image for yourself, you are at the mercy of the company and ShinDigz can only fax or an email image of the order but its your word against theirs.
There are no managers after 5pm so you have to either call back or wait to resolve your issue. After placing an order of over $80 with this company I expected them to be a bit more flexible and work with me on my order.
The rep in a flat voice informed me that all they can do is expedite shipping. I will not use this company again.
