Hi Laura,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I understand you're frustrated, and I'd like to walk through exactly what happened with your order and clear up a few misunderstandings so that anyone reading has the full picture.

First, regarding the checkout process: our order form is designed to give customers the opportunity to add optional items to their order, and every selection is presented with a clear checkbox and price before you complete your purchase. The final total, including your board, any add-ons you selected, VIP shipping if chosen, and the Warm Table Circle membership, is always displayed in the order summary immediately before you enter your payment information. Nothing is added after that point. The structure is opt-in, meaning customers actively select what they'd like to include, and the total reflects those choices. We've had thousands of customers complete their orders without issue, and the pricing breakdown is transparent at every step. Regarding size upgrades, our boards are offered in different dimensions, and if multiple sizes are available for a product, the pricing for each size is shown on the product page and during selection. If you selected a larger board, that price would have been reflected in your cart and final total before purchase.

On the Warm Table Circle membership: this is a program customers enroll in at checkout by selecting it as part of their order. It's outlined with its own section during the order process, including the membership benefits and the $24.95 monthly fee. When you complete your purchase, you're agreeing to the terms of that membership, which includes ongoing billing unless you choose to cancel. This isn't something anyone is inadvertently charged for—it's a selection made during checkout, just like choosing expedited shipping or adding a second item. If you'd like to cancel your membership, our team is happy to help with that right away when you reach out to support@auntierue.com, and we'll make sure you're taken care of going forward. We do not auto-enroll anyone; the membership is something you actively sign up for as part of your order.

On our return policy: we do accept returns, and the terms are outlined clearly during checkout and in your order confirmation. Returns for a full refund are available if the product is defective or damaged. If the product is as described and in working condition, we offer exchanges or store credit, which is standard for custom and specialty items. Our team is very responsive—we reply to every email that comes in, and we're happy to work with customers to address any genuine issues with their order. If you've reached out and feel you haven't gotten the resolution you were looking for, I'd encourage you to email us again at support@auntierue.com with your order details, and we'll make sure we get you sorted out. We stand behind our product and our service, and we're here to help.

I also want to address your experience with our customer service. We do respond to every inquiry, and our goal is always to provide clear, helpful information and to resolve any concerns. If your question was about the membership or the add-ons you selected, our response would have explained how those work and what you agreed to at checkout—because that's the factual answer. That's not us being unresponsive; that's us giving you the accurate information about your order. If there's something specific we can help you with beyond that explanation—whether it's canceling the membership, addressing a product concern, or anything else—we're absolutely here to do that. Just reach out directly, and we'll take care of it.

Hi Francis,

Thank you for reaching out. I understand you're frustrated, so let me walk you through exactly what happened during your checkout experience and clarify a few things about how our order process works.

Our checkout is designed to show customers all available offers and upgrades before finalizing their purchase. When you ordered, you would have seen the advertised price for the titanium cutting board on the product page. As you moved through checkout, yes, you were presented with optional add-ons, including a premium Japanese knife set and other kitchen tools, all of which are completely optional. These aren't hidden or automatic; each screen gives you a clear choice to add the item to your order or decline and continue. The final page before payment always displays your complete order summary with the total amount you're agreeing to pay. That total reflects the board itself, any add-ons you selected, and shipping. The price you were charged is the price that was displayed in that final summary before you entered your payment information. Nothing is added after you authorize payment. The note about not navigating back after entering your card details is standard across e-commerce sites; it's there to prevent duplicate authorizations if the page reloads or if you accidentally submit twice, not to lock you into anything.

Now, you mentioned that somehow the original offer was replaced by a higher price. I want to be very clear: that doesn't happen in our system. If your final total was higher than the initial product price, it's because additional items or services were selected during checkout. I'd be happy to review your specific order with you to walk through exactly what was included, but I'd need a bit more information to locate it. We searched for an order under the name Francis Haddock but couldn't find a match. If you can email us at support@auntierue.com with your order number or the email address you used at checkout, and mention that you left a Trustpilot review, we'll pull up your order right away. If your order hasn't shipped yet and you'd still like to cancel, we can absolutely take care of that for you once we locate it.

Francis, I completely understand that if you decided mid-checkout that you didn't want to proceed, you'd want to cancel quickly. That's absolutely your right, and we respect that. Again, if you'll email support@auntierue.com with your order details and let us know you'd like to cancel, we'll help you right away, provided the order hasn't already shipped. We're here to make sure every customer feels informed and taken care of, and that includes you. We'd love the chance to locate your order and resolve this directly.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to clarify and set the record straight. We're confident that once we connect on your specific order, we'll be able to clear up any misunderstanding and get you sorted out.

Hi Ed,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I understand this is frustrating, and I want to walk you through exactly what happened so we're on the same page.

When you placed your order, you signed up for our Warm Table Circle membership during the checkout process. This is a premium membership offered at checkout for $24.95 per month, and it includes ongoing perks like exclusive access to new products, member-only discounts, and priority support. The membership details, pricing, and recurring billing schedule are presented on the checkout page before you complete your purchase, and the membership begins immediately upon enrollment. There's no hidden enrollment and no surprise charge — it's a subscription you opted into as part of your original order, and the billing cycle continues each month from the date you signed up. This isn't something that was "snuck in" or added without your knowledge; it was a deliberate part of the checkout experience you agreed to when you completed your order.

I want to emphasize this for anyone reading: we take transparency very seriously, and every detail about the Warm Table Circle membership, including the monthly cost and recurring nature, is clearly disclosed at checkout before payment is finalized. Your total, including the membership, was displayed in your order summary before you clicked to complete the purchase.

That said, I absolutely understand that you no longer want the membership, and that's completely fine. Our team is here to help you cancel and make sure you're taken care of. Please reach out directly to our support team at support@auntierue.com with your order details, and we'll ensure your membership is canceled right away and that you're not billed again going forward. We're happy to help you get this sorted quickly and make sure everything is squared away on your account. You can also manage it at https://vip.auntierues.com/


Again, please email support@auntierue.com and our team will take care of the cancellation and make sure you're all set. We're here to help, and we'll make sure this is resolved to your satisfaction.
