Christian Clothing Brand “God Is Dope” Comes Under Fire
According to Carter, earlier this month, he received a message from customer Sharon West-Smith alleging that she had placed an order in February that was never received. This, allegedly, despite sending countless emails and voicemails.
“I have to say I’ve probably spent over $3,500 with them,” she told Carter. “…bought all of their collections. I love their brand, first of all… I’ve been ordering from them forever. But lately, I don’t know what’s going on.”
Per West-Smith, she followed up — and even mailed the company a letter. With no responses, she then began requesting refunds. Then, at some point, West-Smith located Sharod Simpson’s personal Instagram account. She shared her grievance and got a reply, but still no help.
Consumers Speak Out
At that point, Carter did a deep dive on the brand’s social media presence, locating comments that appear to have been ignored. Another customer who was highlighted: Catrillia Harris. Furthermore, Harris explained to Carter that it seemed like the more she ordered from the brand, the more it became unreliable. And eventually, she began having to dispute the transactions with her bank.
