After being a faithful follower in IG of Ivory Paper Co, I decided to order a planner on February 3, 2022. I ordered $80+ in their website (a $52+ planner, some label sheets + a notepad). I was supposed to have my planner before the end of the month so I could start using it on March 1st (as it was dated). I was super excited to start using my planner in March and was preparing to use it to organize LITERALLY my entire life. A month later, the planner has not arrived. No email from anyone. I emailed the company to inquire about the status of my order and they responded a day later saying that they will "find out" what the status of my order was. So it took them a WHOLE day to email me back and they still had no response about the actual status of the order?! I responded same day requesting to cancel my order since I was already going to be missing days from my planner. They responded the FOLLOWING day saying they had "shipped" the order. It is important to note that the tracking they provided does not have an ETA for when the order will be delivered. After reading all these reviews from other customers like me, I am afraid I won't even be receiving my order. I will be placing a dispute with my credit card company if I don't receive my order in the next 5 business days. I think the owner should focus on fast shipping instead of posting on social media as much as she does because obviously her team is not ready for prime time yet! Very disappointed :(Business response

I ordered a $70+ planner from Ivory Paper Co. on December 20th. I understand that this is their busy season, but the website still stated that it would take 7-10 days to ship my order. On January 10th, I reached out to them to see if my order had been processed. I was worried that since it was not here yet, that I would have a bunch of blank space since it was not back dated. I provided order # and everything requested. They responded on Jan 11th and stated that they were experiencing supply chain issues. They saw it had not shipped yet, but were doing everything they could to get it out to me. Understandable. However, I just received an email today that there was an issue processing my order, so they were just going to be refunding me. I have waited for this planner for over a month. It has been extremely inconvenient because I was so excited about this planner that I have been working without one for a month now. I asked if I could place a second order and be processed quicker due to the circumstances. They said they could not accommodate this or give me any guarantee that my order would be processed. How can you respond to an email on Jan 10th about an order that was not "processed correctly" without seeing the issue? Something feels extremely off about this situation. I literally just want the planner that I paid a lot of money for to be processed and delivered to me. Their customer support has been 0 help in this matter and are offering nothing to resolve either. Please beware while ordering from this business. They are unreliable, disorganized, and lack basic customer service skills.Business response

I apologize there was an issue with the order. We reached out via email to advise of the situation and also issue a full refund. At this time we did express that if you placed a new order it would be 7-10 business days but we would do our best to see if the order could be fulfilled prior to. We do not want to set an expectation that might not be met, due to volume of orders during peak season. The original order has been cancelled and a full refund has been issued, IPC proactively reached out to the customer to advise.

I am just a couple of days over the 12 month line as I didnt know filing a complaint was even an option - I ordered a planner from Ivory paper co on 1/12/21 for the price of $58.30 including standard shipping (5-8 business days). I did not receive the planner until 3/1/21 nearly 2 months after the order was placed. Although I did attempt to reach out to the company, I received a generic response about order volumes being larger than expected, shipping times had been changed to 9-14 days although in the original receipt it says 5-9 and no option for a refund. By the time I received the planner I had already purchased another and no longer needed it. The planner was in very poor condition when it did arrive and was unusable anyway. I have seen tons of complaints from others towards this company.Business response

I am sorry to hear your planner arrived late. I reviewed the past correspondence and there was nothing stated about the condition of your planner upon its arrival. Our currently policy allows for replacement of damaged goods if notified within 7 business days of shipment. At this time we are not able to provide a refund.Initial Complaint

I apologize you did not receive your entire order. I show we received a follow up email from you on 1/6/21 checking on the refund. IPC responded asking for the order number in order to help with the situation. Unfortunately IPC did not get a response. A refund has been issued and can take 7-14 business days to be applied to the original form of payment.
