Flex Seal The product is very good, but the company is very bad

I am joining the chorus about reviews on the Flexseal website. Without consulting my common sense, I order “2″ cans but order shows two “orders” of 2 cans each. Nowhere on the website can you make a correction. Talked with some flunky after holding over two hours, she didn’t know s***, didn’t know anybody, didn’t know any phone numbers and couldn’t seem to remember her name. RUN, don’t walk, from this crooked crew. Only alternative I found, ship the S*** back to them and hope for your refund. ha I’ll seal with mud before using anything from this outfit. Get the word around about them.

FLEX SEAL – Buyer Beware! I ordered Flex Seal through their 800 number and found it completely automated. I ordered one can and was supposed to get the second can free. When the box arrived they sent 6 cans and charged me $119.67. When I called and complained they said to return the un-used 4 cans which I did at a postal cost of $13.83. I then was told they would only credit me about $20.00. I ended up spending $90.00 for 2 cans plus another $13.83 for postal charges to return the 4 cans.

The product is very good; I have used it on the roof of my RV and it does what is claims to do. The company, however, is deceptive as can be. Looking back, I should have put a hold on the credit card charge, instead I went and foolishly paid the charge. I understand they have a similar scam when you purchase the product through their website. Let the buyer beware. The product is very good, but the company is very bad.

Flexseal may stop leaks that are not under pressure. It does not stop a drip from the cart where I roll up and move my lawn garden hose.

Flex Seal Charged me $40.00 in shipping alone

I purchased two cans of Flex Seal at the advertised price of $19.99 each. The special deal was you get an extra can free. I had intended to get 4 cans. When the shipment came, I found out that they charged me $29.95 for each "two-can" set for a total of $59.90 plus $9.95 "per can" shipping. That is $40.00 in shipping alone! My bill came to over $99 for the 4 cans.

There goes another vendor that has a good product, but misleads people during the purchase process.

Flex Seal I'll probably end up in CA Consumer Affairs before this is fixed

Never fails, without telling me they tacked on a ridiculous $20 worth of shipping charges. Of course the office is closed and there is no one to reach until Monday. Hopefully I can reach my bank before then to stop the charge. There was nothing on the screen prior to the final ordering one that stated that you were done and the order was going through or anything to give you fair warner to stop and find out how much the extra charges were. Guess I'll probably end up in CA Consumer Affairs before this is fixed.

i am enraged at how this company takes advantage of consumers. my dad is 77 years old. not only do they not give a verifiable breakdown of all the charges, but 6 cans cost 119.67! the so-called processing fee costs more than the product which i find absurd. and of course, when we didnt recieve a confirmation # nor told of the total amount charged, we...

I basically wanted to use this product really bad but I am not interested in paying that type of money for a can or even two cans for that matter even though I really love the convincing commercial.

Flex Seal Deceptive website, can't review order before placing.

Deceptive website, can't review order before placing... on hold for FORTY (40) MINUTES when I called. I wanted to cancel or change my order. The girl told me it was "in process" so it couldn't be changed, even though it hadn't shipped yet. Ridiculous. I finally got an RMA number out of her that would allow me to return part of my order for a refund.

Why has nobody contacted the FBI to find out if these people are breaking any federal laws? Hi. I'm from Canada and decided to check out any complaints on this product before buying. Was I shocked, since this product has been on tv for awhile now.

Thats really a shame that so many on line web sites are ripping consumers off . Its not like the economy is really stable right now. In other words . Consumers today really don't have money to throw away . I think its time to investigate all websites having anything to do with tv ads . Thanks to the comments . I will not be buying from any of these sites . Consumers need our extra money for bills . Get my point .

Flex Seal over charged

I ordered 1 can of Flex Seal on Saturday and I was charged $79.78 when my confirmation came to me. (? $19.99 + $9.95 P+H + $9.95 P+H for the 2nd can free = $39.89 by my math ?) I immediately called and the office was closed. I called Monday morning and after waiting over an hour to talk to someone I was told so sorry but I had ordered 2 and they couldn't cancel my order as it was already on it's way. I also spoke to the supervisor and she said we could send it back once it came but I still have to pay the shiping charge. I don't want any of it now because this is a SCAM and I have already called the bank to complain and to void this order and get all my money back. This is Fraud and I hope the state shuts you people down ! I'm also alerting FOX news as they run your ad, I'm sure they would like to know about the SCAM you people are running !

I saw this product and could really use a can but not six of them.
It's a shame the billing department can't do their job right and
over bill all of you because all the complaints I see is over billing.
Has anyone tried the product and if so, did it work as advertised?
If you did and had good results, could you re-post what you used it for
And how well did it work, I do A/C repair but would hate to repair
a attic unit pan and have it leak and ruin the ceiling a second time.
I hope you guys that got ripped off get your money back from the
bank or credit card company. 99% of the card company's will help
you out and credit your card back. If they don't, tell them you want
to talk to their manager, if the manager doesn't give you satisfaction
Tell the manager you would like to cancel your card and account with
them and you will take your business elsewhere to a company that will
protect your online purchases from fraud. You will get it back, I promise you that.
I promise you will

This is a scam!!! I agree, the Attorney General should look into this criminal activity. I ordered the 'buy one, get one free' plus shipping and handling. Should only have been under $40. When they confirmed the payment, they charged me $83 dollars. They increased my order to the large cans, even when I clicked 'no' I did not want them. I had to block my credit card. Don't let FlexSeal do the same to you!!!

Seriously--you bought something advertised on late-night TV and expected there NOT to have some kind of scammy loophole in the pricing?

Please, anyone, if you get your money back, post that information here--you'll be a legend almost instantly. You're more likely to find the Holy Grail or the Lost Chord, rather than to be treated fairly by these companies.

Flex Seal over charging for order

I ordered 2 cans of Flex Seal Rubber Sealant. The first can was 19.95. The second can was 9.95 I up graded to larger cans for 4.95 each. Shipping was 9.95. This totaled 49.95. I was overdrawn at the bank and couldnt figure out why. I went on line and found they had charged my debit card 198.95. I will be filing charges for fraudulent business practices after reading all of the other complaints.

I used two quarts of Flex Seal on the back of a 18 inch by 48 inch runner rug so that it wouldn't be slippery.
Two cans at $29.95 each ! Still wasn't enough to prove a smooth or sealed surface.
For $60 I expected a MUCH better product

Flex Seal No live person to talk to. Why??

I did not want to buy with credit card as per other complaints about over charging. Just wanted to get full price and address to send check to. But you can not talk to anyone.
To bad they missed a sale.

i'm a handy man that has used Flex Seal many times. The product works. The commercial clearly says buy one can get the 2nd can free, just pay additional processing. When you call the 800# they clearly tell you that you are buying 2 cans of Flex Seal, 1st can 19.99 + 9.95 processing for the 2nd can and 9.95 to ship everything. Why don't people pay attention? If they just listen to the advertisment they will know what they are getting. Also, try calling a roofer and see how much they will cahrge you to fix your leak..maybe $500 to $1000 if you are lucky! At 39.80 for the 2 cans that actually work, its WELL WORTH IT!

To whom it may concern I bought two cans of flex seal, first of all they cost more than what is advertised on TV !
Next the product didn't do what you claim it does ! I followed the directions to the T, and it just didn't do what you claim !
You should be sued for false advertiseing and I work hard for my money and I would like a complete refund !

Well, no matter what "Mr. stop complaining and pay attention" says, I did read the whole thing before ordering and I'll be damned if I am going to pay $40, 00 for something that is being advertised for $19.99. I figured there was some kind of a scam here and why would another person state that it works as good as a can of spray paint. I have a feeling that this person either works for the company that is manufacturing the product or is paid to say all of this. Thanks but no thanks, I will pass on this amazing deal.

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

After seeing the TV ad listing the product as $19.99 plus a free can (just pay s/h) sounded good. I placed an order. Just before my card was charged, the site asked whether I wanted to "upgrade to bigger cans" for $4.95 additional. I did. By my calculations that's $19.99 + $9.95 + $9.95 + $9.90. At this point I thought it was getting high, but decided to go...
