Poor customer service
Called to make sure a cable was in stock, was assured it was available. Did not receive shipping confirmation and called back to confirm order and was told it take 3 business days to process, was later informed the product was on back order.

Hi Kelly,
We appologize for this issue but this product/cable did not and does not show that it is in stock. It shows we have 100,000 on the way but it's not in stock. Your order was processed within 1 hour of receiving not 3 days. We understand you have cancelled your order and we've already credited you back in full.
We have reached out to you to see if you know who you spoke with stating that this cable was in stock. You advised us that you did not know. We did take a look through our call records and spoke with our staff but the product you ordered was not what you inquired about. That likely where this issue stemmed from.
Once again we do appologize for this issue. We take pride in our customer service and this review does not reflect who we are as a company.
Sincerly,
LANshack
Excellent Service and Equipment
Prompt response to questions when building out what we needed. Fiber and other products were amazingly priced and excellent quality.

Hi Stacy,
For some reason we did not get your response to the email we sent you and are looking into why we did not get it. We looked thoroughly through our sales inbox and do not have the email. You always give us a call as well if you are not getting a response and if the order is urgent.
Once again we apologize for the issue and have credited you back in full for the shipping and provided an additional 10% discount on the order.
Sincerely,
LANshack
Horrible CS and Website
We place 2 orders on July 25th, I came back in a July 28th and one of the orders said it didn't go through based on a credit card. I checked and another credit card was in the order that was not even our credit card so I tried to change it several times and could not, so I had to replace the order.
The on August 4, I called to talk to them about the orders because they were still not showing as shipped. The first time I called, I got put on hold for 35 minutes and then hung up on without an answer. The second time I called I said don't put me on hold and I got put on hold for another 25 minutes and then hg up on without an answer. The third time I called, before she started to say anything, I said don't out me on hold, she said, ok I won't, I'll hang up and I got hung up on. SAME GIRL EVERY TIME. I need my 2 orders sent, but I will no longer do business with this company.

HI Rich,
I'm very sorry about this issue but our call system shows we tried reaching out to you several times via email and phone. It has been impossible to get in touch with you. We tried calling you again with no answer and left a VM and emailed you. When we call it goes directly to VM. The main number goes to a voice box that is full. We receive orders all day with no issues so I'm assuming this payment issue has to do with the card you are using. Perhaps the bill to address is not matching the ship to address. Or the limit on the card has been reached. Both completely outside of our control.
We are investigating your phone call to us where you state you got put on hold for 25 minutes. If you called after our normal business hours you may have gotten the call center we use. That is an issue we will discuss with them but we have never heard of an experience like this before. Once again we'll look through the transcripts though to see what exactly happened.
We'll also try calling you and emailing you again.
Sincerly,
LANshack

Not Delivered On Time
I decided to order from LANshack due to the advertised delivery date being exactly what i needed for the rush job I was doing. I paid for overnight shipping just to ensure my order would be delivered on time. Not only did I not get my order on time, I did not receive it until 8 days after the advertised delivery date. Talking with their customer service team, they seemed frustrated with me calling and bothering them asking when my order would ship etc. It was a frustrating experience having to postpone a project due to their false advertisement on delivery dates. Will not order from LANshack again.

Hi Sam,
We took a look at your order and we refunded you back for the shipping charges. We do applogize for the delay. It did take two additional days to manufacture your fiber optic assembly. We state in very large font that is estimated lead time and we also have a message that explains things in detail. We ran out of raw cable and were expecting it in sooner. Direct burial OM1 cable is unfortunately not as readily available as other fiber types. We did notify of this and keep you aware of the circumstances. You could have canceled at any time. We absolutely did our best to locate the cable but kep running into issue getting it quicker. We typically can make miricles happen but unfortunately we could not this time. These assemblies are labor intensive and do take time to build. Yours was a 550 armored direct burial which take a littel extra time as well. We do applogize for the delay. This is an uncommon occurance but unfortunately there are lots of variables invloved with the manufacturing process. We do not falsly advertise anything. Our lead times are 99.9% of the time correct. Sometimes issues arise and we try our absolute best to fix them as quickly as possible.
Sincerly,
LANshack
