SwimOutlet.com

On 5/15/07 I received an ordered Freestyle Audio DMP 512 mb waterproof .mp3

player from SwimOutlet.com. After loading music onto the player as prescribed

in the enclosed instructions, I noticed that the volume controls did not

function properly (the volume level did not increase or decrease noticeably.)

Also, the left earphone channel was significantly lower than the right

irrespective of headphones used. I immediately attempted to call Swimoutlet.com and

learned that the average hold time was over 70 minutes. I then used the web

site's "Live Chat" feature and after 50 minutes chatted with a customer service

person. She indicated to me that within three business days I would receive

an email with a UPS return label. I was to use that to return my defective

player. Once received, SwimOutlet would then exchange it for a functioning one.

That was three weeks ago. Since then, I have tried to call several times,

only to receive the "Average hold time is over an hour" message and have sent

11 emails, all of which have gone unanswered. Finally, I sent my last email on

Sunday 6/3/07 indicating that I would be contacting the BBB and my credit

card merchant if I faied to receive a reply within 48 hours. Again, nothing

from the company. So I still have a defective player and they still have my

money.
