Claimant says:
"Mokan is a home delivery food service. On October 23, a representative came to my home selling frozen meat products. This was my first time encountering the company, but I had seen their truck before in another neighborhood. I was curious about the products and the prices and ask to see them. The food was well packaged, looked good, and frozen. I told the representative (Scott) that I was on a fixed income and could not afford to purchase today. After he discounted and threw in some fish, I said no, can't do it today, will call you later. He offered to split the payments in half; to be paid on the dates of my choice. I agreed and took a package deal of beef, poultry, and fish. The total came to $326.92: 1 payment of $163.46 on November 2, and 2nd. payment of 163.46 on December 3. I checked my account on the 7th; had several overdrafts + fees. That is when I discovered that they had sent in both payments. I called and left a message for Scott to call me. He did not; I sent an email Nov 12. Manager Rick called me to inquire about the problem. I explained and said I want a refund because they did not abide by the terms; and they jacked up my account causing checks to be returned with a fee. He apologized and said it was an accounting mistake. I replied, your mistake is costing me money. He said, it is too late, the transaction had already been made and he could not refund the money. He wanted to give me some more meat and a $40.00 credit on my next purchase. I said if it was a store, and I was dissatisfied, they would give me a refund. Then he said, because we are dealing with food, he could not take it back; he would have to throw it away. I said the food has been frozen since your man put it in my freezer and he knows the freezer is working. I insisted on a refund, mainly because his mistake caused my account to be drained and I still have bills to pay. I refused his offers, asked for a refund, said I'll talk to you later, and hung up. I sent an email earlier asking Rick to call me today to see if he would refund the money, but I decided to do this instead. I will not speak with them until I hear from you. Thank You"

  • Dec 22, 2012, Claiming party added:

  • I will accept the deal if you will exchange one box of flounder for tilapia or salmon. I asked for tilapia during the original transaction. Scott was going to leave 1 box of each because he was out of salmon. His coworker left 2 boxes of flounder in the freezer. I was unaware until a week later. Can you switch one box of flounder for tilpia or salmon? When can you deliver?

    Sincerely,
    G. Simmons

  • Dec 22, 2012, Claiming party added:

  • Dear Rick, What are you going to do about the $50.00 in bank fees that were assessed to my account? I will compromise on everything else, but I had several bills go unpaid due to the transaction which caused all the problems.
    I will accept the deal if you include a check for $50.00 also. Please respond bt 12/27/2012.

    Sincerely,
    Geraldine Simmons

What Claimant Wants Hide
Message from Claimant: Dear Rick,
This is my last response to settle before getting a third party involved. You have not responded to my last letters of December 22 - 27. My offer is very reasonable and I understand that mistakes happen. Your Silence is not solving anything which indicates you do not want to settle.

Sincerely,
Geraldine Simmons
