We want to help you as much as possible! It's hard for us to help when an issue is brought up in a comment on a social post, or a review. We get A LOT of social media comments and while we try our absolute best to answer them all apps like Facebook and Instagram cannot always notify us of everything.
We have no way of knowing that something has gone wrong unless you contact us with your relevant order info via the following methods. Usually we can always fix it easily and very quickly!
