I signed up because of the good reviews found here and I've subsequently stayed away from others after hearing about negative experiences. I imagine there are a lot of MUT members with similar stories.
Yes - I found MUT while googling the PopSugar Must Have Bag when it first came out, looking for info other than what the Sugar websites showed.  It's been a blessing (found some great other subs through the forums) and a curse (spending too much money on subs! LOL).  I love that we can come here and give/read honest feedback.

I agree 100%!  That's not something I would ever do on someone's personal blog.

Malia, I do want to point out that you will probably get a lot of blog traffic!  It's your blog, you can moderate it as you please!  Differences of thought on RCB aside, I for one think your blog is very cute, and I will be following.

Thanks! :)

I recently found out about PopSugar!  Looks like a good one.  I want to try a month!  There must be a PopSugar forum here, I'll go look for it :)

I guess i was wrong for posting NOT to talk about it, I too, look up reviews for products I'm going to buy.  I just felt that a lot of it was being brought to my blog post.  I think THIS forum is a great place to share info and opinions!

Here's what Patty posted on Rip Off Reports about DiorAdore. Please note I did block out her real name and address which is listed on the complaint page.











Any company owner that does that to a customer should be a company to be wary of. Granted the complaint was made over a month ago but nonetheless that customer's PERSONAL information is out there for potential employers or landlords to find. To be essentially called a crook is damaging to Dior's reputation.

Does that sound like a company YOU want to do business with or promote?

 
Wow, Zadi, that is even worse than I imagined. I saw the screen shots from Dior's conversations with Patricia around this time, and the things the woman said to her!

This makes it pretty obvious this woman was out to scam/deceive to begin with- she is talking about her relationship with the manufacturers!!

It is a fun one!  Great variety.  I am going to message you a code for $5 off your first box in case you decide to check it out.  Everyone in the forum is super helpful with questions and issues.  Some people are still waiting on their November boxes and the December thread already has 110+ posts!

Oh my gosh. This is horrible. What company trying to make a name for itself would do this to a consumer? This is exactly why info of this nature should be posted and brought to light. If it were any other big corp we would be in an uproar! Btw when I wrote to her about my dissatisfaction she mentioned she purchased items through amazon and eBay. I mean does she even know the quality of product she is purchasing?!? I found that odd. Idk. Wrapping things up in pretty paper and a gold bag DOES not make what's inside of quality.

As you've probably seen in this thread, Patty earned a lot of negative attention for her boxes.  A lot of the ladies here want to protect each other from scams (and in the case of RCB, potentially harmful products with the expired makeup) and I'm sure they just felt the need to warn you and the people who showed an interest in RCB on your blog.  DiorAdora was excited about RCB when she discovered it and referred a lot of people, and then after the first boxes arrived, it was clear that RCB was not what anyone expected, and not in a good way.  DiorAdora expressed her disappointment in the products and the "company" and Patty responded by posting DA's personal information on a very public forum.  Anyone that posts anything negative (or even asks the "wrong" type of question) on the Facebook page has their post deleted and they are banned.  I would encourage you to read through this thread, Zadidoll in several responses has summed things up quite well and backed up her statements with solid information.  Personally, I could never purchase this box or refer it to any of my friends. 

 
I wasn't going to point this out before since the complaint is old however, anyone else catch what Patty wrote about her children and husband on the Rip Off Reports complaint?

I have seven children and a husband and I am trying my best to make a decent living and to pay my medical bills.
In the original About Us (I do have a screenshot of it), that was copied from Ipsy (formerly MyGlam), she had this written:

Even though Patricia has given birth to 6 children that range from 3 to 17 years old, she constantly gets asked how to you continue to look so great and ultimately gets asked: “What are the right products for me?â€
Ok, granted #7 could be a step-child however she tends to bounce back and forth between what she writes which puts into question her honesty. Just keep in mind that About Us was lifted from Ipsy word-for-word and while Patty claims the images were placeholders for her site which was "under construction" the fact is she STILL copied Ipsy's About Us page word-for-word and changed only a few sentences. The original post on the plagerism can be found several pages back.

Also, in many of Patty's threats to myself, Irene and members of MUT Patty always talked about how RICH she was so why would she need to "make a decent living" if she were so rich? It just doesn't add up.

 
The rich thing is something that has always bothered me, too. I remember very clearly her saying something to the effect of "believe me, I could afford to buy all of you high end things without a problem" when her sources were being questioned...to me, that doesn't add up to her stories about trying to make extra money to pay her medical bills.

And no, her personal life/finances don't matter, but what does matter is the constant lack of honesty and reliability. It's everything combined with this box.  It's not just her questionable everchanging stories. Or the discontinued and expired products. But those things combined with her deleting every negative comment or review on her facebook, attacking anyone who gives a negative review, sending out personal information of customers on more than one occasion now...you can't trust a word this woman says and you shouldn't trust her with any of your personal information. Period.

 
is there any way DiorAdora can contact ripoff report about Patty's post and get it removed since it contains highly personal information?

isn't Ripoff Report supposed to be for consumers to complain about businesses, not vice versa? Also, there's a good reason companies don't openly complain about customers like that, uhm, not good for business Patty.

 
Dior is aware of the complaint against her. I hope Rip Off Reports removes that complaint against her. I have contacted ROR on Dior's behalf, via email, stating she's a consumer not a business.

 
This is interesting because on of her acolytes claims that she bought her stuff from the same wholesaler as Marshall's (which is a crock because TJ Maxx and Marshall's do most of their buying from the manufacturer/manufacturer agents or with major retail chains for overstock).

So I guess this is an admission

Wow...just wow...I've been reading some posts on this and it just looks like a mexican soap not on MUT's side but on RCB's side...how can that woman(RCB's owner) say all those things about DiorAdora, and how MUT ruined her company's reputation, when she is ruining DiorAdora's reputation! those claims she's making are really serious!! wow...she's just wow...all I can say... and lol @ her saying things about you Zadi!

 
You know I find this all so funny. Even more funny that Patty creates all this drama and she knows she is doing it. When I do box reviews I am not gonna have a fake report to send to my friends on my expired products. I sent a lot of people to this company and they are my friends. I dont want them putting this stuff on skin and feel terrible if something happens. When you have reviews people are gonna talk. I had a bad review and even if yours was a good review and you feel like this great for your friends good and bad on this box will get major traffic? Why because it has become a joke in my opinion and people wanna know . Sadly I do have friends who purchase from her but i feel like i did what i needed to make them understand that her sources of buying products are unknown. If they love the box so be it . Its not the quality i wanna spend money on or deal with the terrible customer service that comes along with it. Until it happens to you and your not happy with a product and she targets you its not funny anymore its serious. Watch your personal info. Thats all i gotta say!

You just reviewed and your review was your personal opinion, what she did on sharing your info is a horrible thing, I've worked for big companies and one thing they care about a lot is taking care of their customer's personal info, and she just published it online! that's just soooo horrible and scary!

 
It really is SCARY. I have never been so disrespected in my life. If people wanna see past what she has done to me and everyone else I guess they will get it soon enough when they dont like the expired items she sends out again. Even though I had a negative review I still get alot of Disrespect on my video. I simply delete and block users. But i will never take the video down ! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
