    I just wanted to warn everyone about ordering anything from Wormman.com.  I ordered a pound of live blackworms from him on Nov 24, 2008 and never received them.  I called his number and it no longer works, I sent him numerous emails requesting either the worms or my money refunded and never received any response.  I don't know if he has gone out of business, but he is still taking orders and money and not sending the product or refunding the money.

        When I called the machine answered but was out of memory and could not take any more messages.
        I used my American Express and when the bill came I disputed the charges so they removed them while they check.

        Since then I have got a hookup with a LPS and they add blackworm to their monday order for me and I pick them up on tuesday.
        My fish love me.


        PS - I never use my debit card on the net.   I have a little $500 limit card and I change numbers every 9 months.
        'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
        He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

            You can dispute a debit card just like any credit card. Hence the Visa, Master Card, etc. logo on the debit card. Just call your bank. :)

              yeah, give your bank a call.
              I've gone through the same thing with some loaches from another seller and wells fargo just canceled the whole transaction for me.

                      Re: Wormman.com

                      PhishPhreek- Thanks for the info.

                      Jolley & Alexarae - I will contact my bank tomorrow, it may have been too long for them to do anything about it because they have probably already paid him, but I will try anyway and thanks for the advice.

                      Imagirlgeek - Thanks for getting that information for me, I didn't have any idea how to find out any info about wormman except what is on his website.  I will try to contact him at the phone numbers and email address tomorrow.  The web site is very interesting and obviously he has a history of screwing people around and ripping them off.

                      I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate your help and support?  Thanks, Pam.

                        I filed a complaint against Wormman.com with the BBB of New Jersey.

                        Wormman has an F rating with the BBB of New Jersey, the lowest rating they have.  In the last 36 mos. there have been 80 complaints against him, 24 resolved, 54 no response and 2 unpursuable.

                          I just checked out a site that Wormman.com recommends, reptilesites.com.  Obviously he has not gone out of business, he is an administrater there and he posted yesterday.  He also advertises on the site.  There were complaints about him on the site as well.  He is carrying on as if he was some kind of a decent business man.  What a jerk, I don't know how he can look himself in the mirror.

                            Dan with Aquatic Foods says he is handling Wormman's blackworm orders directly now and that if I have a pending order he well see what he can do about it.  He says that Aquatic Foods is not involved in Wormman's business.  Hopefully he can help me out.  I will let you guys know what happens.
