This scammer company lied to us that the goods were ready to be pickup but never give us the pickup address. They only keep asking us to remove the complaints in a very rude way. We had already mentioned that we will only remove the complaints once receive the correct items.

This ITT company is also linked to "https://controlssupplychain.com/" (Company name call "Control Supply Chain").

ITT Controls Customer service

The worst company to deal with in the world. We sent them an RFQ and no answer for 5 days, so we sent a reminder reading " A kind Reminder" with the original RFQ, we received an email reading " You communicate like a [censored]" end of the email.
This unprofessional behavior does reflect the reality of this company. I advise people to no conduct any business with them. We are buyers! treat us as or close your business and join an anger management club to deal with your issues.
I will be calling the supervisor and seek that this rude, unprofessional worker gets fired.

Desired outcome: Fire the unprofessional worker responsible for this incident and work on building a professional team to communicate with potential buyers.

Highly recommended, but caution will not hurt.

Our conclusion: After a detailed review, ComplaintsBoard finds ITT Controls to be a trustworthy company. Although there's a 31% resolution rate for customer complaints, which deserves attention, ITT Controls is known for their high standards and safety. If you're thinking about dealing with ITT Controls, it's wise to check how they handle complaints.

Ittcontrols.com you are considering visiting, which is associated with ITT Controls, is very old. Longevity often suggests that a website has consistently provided valuable content, products, or services over the years and has maintained a stable user base and a sustained online presence. This could be an indication of a very positive reputation.

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • Despite a high level of trust, our investigation found issues with ITT Controls's service, including poor customer service, lack of accountability, and responsibility to resolve complaints. Customers may face long wait times for responses, receive generic or unhelpful answers or no response at all. Only 31% of 0 complaints were resolved.
  • There was some difficulty in evaluating or examining the information or data present on the ittcontrols.com. This could be due to technical issues, limited access, or website may be temporarily down for maintenance or experiencing technical difficulties.
  • Ittcontrols.com has relatively low traffic compared to other websites, it could be due to a niche focus, but could also indicate a potential lack of traffic and popularity. The ittcontrols.com may offer a niche product or service that is only of interest to a smaller audience.
  • ITT Controls protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.

ITT Controls Do not purchase anything from them!

When I say " them" I mean it is probably just one person pretending to be different people, to scam you.

Problem is, is that their website looks uber professional and so many people have fallen for their schtick.

E-mail communication is strange, no signature on the e-mail, sometimes they use Paul, sometimes is Wendy.
They are rude, and don´t seem to really speak english as a first or second language and have ZERO knowledge about the materials they pretend to sell.
I am actually one of the lucky ones. Their demeanor via e-mail set all types of red flags and alarms so I went searching online to try and find other ways of contact and then I found this website with all these complaints.

After reading all the messages I am so happy I got a crappy treatment via e-mail, because the materiais they pretend to sell are usually very VERY expensive.

I hope people are as lucky as I was.

ITT Controls Regulator Jeavons J123LG

DO NOT EVER ORDER SOMETHING FROM THEM!
THEY ARE SCAMMERS!

According to the offer from December 8th 2020, they gave the delivery time 4 weeks. We placed the order and made payment (8K euros) in the option on December 28th 2020, and they changed the delivery time to 8 weeks,
which is twice as long as the initial deadline.
According to that deadline, the delivery was supposed to be in the worst case by the end of February 2021, which of course did not happen.
After that they changed delivery date to the 2nd week of March, which also did not happen. Then every week they indicate that the package will be ready next week.
Finally they delivered us totally different regulator in week 17 after from the date of our purchase order and payment.

The reason for our request for the return and refund is that we asked strictly for the original JEAVONS REGULATOR J123LG and what you allegedly offered us, and in the end you delivered us REGULATOR from another manufacturer without any technical data on it, and with only the manufacturer sign on it, which obviously is not JEAVONS, but instead SENSUS, that can be seen on photos attached.
There is also no paper - certificate that should accompany the product with the serial number.
Attached you are photos of existing regulator with plate in factory plant (yellow), and also the one with no plate at all (grey) that ITT Controls delivered us!

DO NOT EVER ORDER SOMETHING FROM THEM!
THEY ARE SCAMMERS!

Desired outcome: Refund

ITT Controls Barton chart recorders

Unprofessional, rude, crooked company. "wendy" is unprofessional at best and participating in dirty business at worst. They will require prepayment, they will not keep you updated on order status, when you inquire about your order they will become aggressive in the way that individuals with low intelligence always do.in the end you will receive equipment that in no way resembles what you ordered if you receive any goods at all.
Avoid these scammers and save your money.

ITT Controls Scam - paid money in advance and haven't heard back

We placed an order with ITT Controls B.V. in Netherlands for Position Transmitters January 17, 2020. We were told that the lead time is 6 weeks. When we contacted after 6 weeks, the lead time increased to another 2 weeks, and later for another 2 weeks until COVID-19 started. After COVID-19 started, they again delayed the order stating COVID-19 as the reason. Even after Netherlands started functioning we still haven't received any word from them other occasional replies to the email in a rude manner.

Their first reply to my email:

"WHAT A STUPID QUESTION !

READ OUR TERMS AND LEAD TIME FOR ONCE"

We had already paid them in advance and now we are not hearing back from them. They do not add the name and contact number in the signature nor you can find it anywhere so it is impossible to talk to them.

ITT Controls Unprofessional communication and conduct

To whom it may concern,
I am shocked by the unprofessional communication between my team and the person without mail signature responding on behalf of ITT Controls, per contact@ittcontrols.com
The mail correspondence is quite frankly unacceptable and in poor taste, which leaves a very bitter taste in the mouths of both my team, and the Management of my company respectively.
I have the evidence in the mail that has been forthcoming from this ITT Controls address, which includes swearing, in writing! Shocking, and unprofessional!
I eagerly await a formal response, and I seek to deal with this matter with the Senior Management of ITT Controls. If this is the manner in which your company chooses to engage with Khusheim, then I am certain that this is an acceptable and condoned means of dealing with all clients. That being the case, I shall advise my team to avoid any further business negotiations with ITT Controls.

ITT Controls Product and service

I placed an order about 9 months ago. A person e-mails under the name Wendy, but when I call number an old man with poor English starts stuttering and vibrates on the phone. I do not understand anything at all. There are a lot of typing and language errors in the correspondence. After we paid we did not hear anything anymore. And since last week we have asked for credit and we have been able to buy our stuff elsewhere and now we have asked for our money. And immediately within a week there was a letter from the lawyer on the floor and all threats and lies.
- [] I have done some research myself. Their conditions are nothing even legally valid. They are scammers. I really think it's a one-man office. They are fraudsters scammers and just madmen. The gentleman I had on the phone did not even know what he was selling. No knowledge of things at all, but ask the main prize and charge mega amounts. Then do not fulfill any agreement and then also keep one of our monies and deliver goods and also in a procedure forced and unintentionally end up. I'm sorry I ever ordered something here. Really this case must close. The Netherlands must be ashamed of allowing such companies to exist. This case must be closed. This man must be locked and locked. He just deserves a prison sentence for everything he does to innocent people! Order nothing here ! They are scammers. Nothing they promise on their website is true. Everything has been lied. Is only lying and cheating.

Beware this company is a scammer.
Never never pay in advance. You will not receive your orders. And if you only get it after a year, it is not good.

ITT Controls Customer service / poor response / bad attitude

ITT Controls
P.O. Box 422
Barneveld, Gelderland
Netherlands - 3770AK

I had an enquiry from my customer and searched and found ITT Controls for Krom Schroder valve and actuator. With limited detail from my customer I was expecting help from ITT, What a joke!
The telephone number rings and rings, never answered, ever!
I explained after sending several emails that I wanted to speak to someone to discuss to avoid any problems, backed up via email of course. They eventually rung me and were curt and abrupt to say the least. When I explained that the telephone number was never answered I was told, YES it was several times, talking over me at the time and telling me I was wrong.
Further emails and request for help resulted in the following unprofessional and rude email...
"Hi, I think it is very clear.
Perhaps companies like yours, should not try to sell products without any knowhow."

I have never had such a rude and unprofessional encounter. The order I had in hand was for 10k Euro, but I'll be speaking to my customer in the morning and cancelling this as I will NOT be placing ANY business their way now or in the future.

I wish I had read these complaints prior to contacting and could've saved my self a lot of grief and unnecessary work. I urge anyone who may think of dealing with them to definitely reconsider...
Absolutely UNBELIEVABLE, this company should be avoided at all costs
I have email traceability and had a conversation with a male called Vernhah or similar?
The email seemed to come from someone called Wendy.
Please be warned!

ITT Controls Ge safety valves/purchase order

We have received offer from itt in june last year. Just because of lead time they have offered. We decided to use their proposal. Our client bp, was asking for the best delivery of valve. We have been awarded with order and sent our po to itt who asked for prepayment (16k eur). We paid next day and later on starting to chase our order and were informed that lead time has changed from 8 weeks to 35 weeks and cannot be improved. Very poor and rude responses from sales who even do not mentioned his name when reply. 1 year passed since order was placed with this supplier and nothing ready yet. When my sale specialist was trying to check regarding certificates and ask him several questions, his response shocked all our team, see below!
*are you going to send us emails the whole day?
Dont waste our time with your procurement nonsence...*

After I tried to contact their manager (I had no idea that there is one man only in company), and mentioned that I will report this incident, I received another rude response which is beyond all business ethics

*report what ever you want

We will also block your access*

Such companies shouldn't exist in oil& gas business. Please start investigation and take legal action against itt controls...

ITT Controls itt barton bellow unit assemblies, 8 pieces

We placed an order with ITT Controls BV based on their quotation [protected] for the items stated above on 20.10 2017. The items were requested for our customer in Turkey namely TPAO. Based on the order terms we paid 23800.00 Euro on 20.10.2017 against their invoice [protected] as advance payment. During the pick-up and shipping period, we experienced a non-cooperative approach from ITT Controls.
After receipt of the goods by the enduser, they found to be not compliance with the technical requirement and they will have to be returned. The pictures sent by enduser are attached. When we advised the same to ITT Controls, they reacted aggressively stating that the goods are in compliance with the requirement and the goods are brand new. When we tried to explain the situation to ITT Controls we always received replies in an unprofessional way. Whe we got the final reply as "case closed". We require a refund since enduser requires the same from us. Pictures are attached. The gold painted ones are supplied by ITT Controls BV.
We also have an office in Ankara Turkey. Website is www.atikol.com. Please advise if you need additional documents.

If you want to contact the actual manufacturer or Barton chart recorders, the new company name is Sensia LLC. Our headquarters is in Houston, TX but we have offices all over the world. I have been with the company for 37 years, since we were ITT Barton. We are the OEM.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience.

Wow, what a story.
I recently had a very bad experience with this company, luckily only at the enquiry . customer service stages.
The response and reaction times were so poor, the really crappy attitude and lack lustre approach was a real sign and set off alarm bells immediately to me.

The straw that broke the camels back was that I had contacted them initially to ask for their help, for their assistance as they're supposed to be specialists in their field.
The attitude after several emails and FINALLY after asking several times for someone to ring me to discuss was unbelievable...their last email to me was as follows...….
"Hi, I think it is very clear.
Perhaps companies like yours, should not try to sell products without any knowhow."

After being amazed at that response I decided to do a little investigation and started to find horror stories, but much worse endings like yours unfortunately.
I was lucky, very lucky NOT to deal with them any further. I was actually going to cancel my order with my customer rather than risk disappointing them and doing any business with ITT Controls BV. In the end I dealt with Krom Schroder directly.
Avoid dealing with ITT Controls BV would be my advice and deal with them at your own peril.
