Shockingly bad customer service. Product delivered, eventually.

Premium "*****" is near IMPOSSIBLE to reach over phone or email. They take weeks to deliver. They make false claims about their product and then ****** money to fix a factory issue. Did they eventually deliver the product, yes. Would I recommend them to anyone, no. I think they get kicks out of frustrated customers. Some of the worst customer service I have ever come across. It is VERY strange that they do not have a listed address on their website. Underhanded to say an item is "custom" only after payment has been made and that the item can't be returned. Premium "*****" charges money to fix their factory issue. Forget about after sales service or any warranty issue. Not worth the time and effort to order from a company such as this if you expect any decency. With a new attitude and a few staff changes this company could do much better. It was very disappointing to have to deal with them and waste so much time.
