Placed an order with True North on Oct. 16/15 for around $350.00 on my VISA. On Oct. 22 2 small charges appeared on my card which i didnt notice till later. On Oct. 29 CIBC Visa Fraud detection called me. Someone had stolen my credit card info and had attempted to charge $1500 worth of purchases on it . Luckily they caught it and I didnt get charged. I dont use this card often like some folks so I knew something was fishy with True North. I have a friend who I mentioned to that True North has Coma Kush. He wanted that strain and only True North sells it, so he placed an order a couple days of days after me with True North. Well as soon as I knew i had been ripped off I called him and he checked his Visa statement. He had $500 in purchases charged to his card as well. These orders were placed on 2 different computers from 2 different emails using 2 different Visa's and 2 different shipping addresses both in the same week. Only thing is common was True North. So I called True North and asked to speak to the owner concerning Credit Card Fraud. I was directed to a woman who said she was a supervisor. I explained all that had happened and her reply was that only the last 4 digits of the credit card was visible and that it was impossible for staff to be involved. Well how do they receive payment for their seeds. They dont have Paypal so someone has to input the payment. She tells me that someone will contact me and she will let their web person as well as the owner know about this. Its been over a week now. NO email, No Phone call, Nothing. I will never order again from this company. Beware

You Guys really scare the shit out of me Now. I ordered some seeds from them 3 weeks ago. Some White Sirius Autos, Kushy Kush and Bubba Kush. Haven't received the tracking # yet and I wrote them 5 days ago with no answers yet. I ordered from them 3 years ago. It tooks like 40 days and few phone calls before I got it. They told me the Cream Caramel I ordered were back ordered. They never wrote to tell me about it. It tooks time but I received my seeds + a bunch of freebies that were great seeds. I decided to give them another chance but Im starting to regret it again. You should see their catalog. They looks like having ALL strains. Its seems phishy now. I'll call them tomorrow. If I Dont get my 150$ order, I'll bitch about them everywhere. Its not ok to mess with people's money.

reviews of elsewhere are way better. true north might be ok for some but not to most . why defend them so hard if you dont work for them? why post like spam? just edit your post. purps i believe you but im gonna hate on them for being inconsistent and treating customers badly/ poor customer service.

I have had true north problems with CC as well. I am pretty sure that this is not the first complaint I've heard about them. I have no problems with their beans. They have very unethical practices for sharing your credit card info with other though. Good luck all.

Ordered from True North Seeds, all 4 times received my order in 6-10 days to the southern US states. HAve had no problem so far I'm very please with them. I used the Ilovemarijuana site the first 2 times I ordered seeds online. NOt a very good choice and a little expensive and one time is took 37 days and the other 29 days

True North use to be named Montreal seed bank...this according to Seedfinder. At any rate I have found that Seedfinders ratings of seed banks to be accurate. True North is even lower scored than that scum of a human being Dr. Greedthumb.

True North is just a depot for other growers. I ordered 250.00 worth of seeds from Ace seeds through True North and the germination rate was about 5%. Thought I was doing something wrong so tried several different germ. methods. Only a few even germinated and the ones that did wouldn't get past the initial sprouting stage. Several of my buddies ordered seeds with me and had all the same luck. Contacted True North and was told they are a novelty item and have no guarantees. Sent me 5 seeds from another company which did sprout (Not the strain I wanted) but 250.00 for garbage. Ordered from a Vancouver company, hopefuly will have better luck. Never again True North

This was my second purchase from true north, no problems, 5 kushy kush (canuk seeds) is the first strain I used and 5 of 5 popped and are looking like healthy seedlings after 7 days. Last time I bought tangie ghost train and all popped, talk about a sticky citrus plant, loved the stuff.

Just an update ordered from MJM seeds( Crop King) and after having a glitch with shipping I recvd what I ordered and within 2 days had every seed sprout! If you're going to spend your hard earned money buy from a company that guarantees 80% germination and not from a company that calls them souveniers. I just wish I would of had this info before I wasted money on True North

I want to give my two cents on this seed company. I have ordered from them numerous times, always got what I wanted. They are located close enough to me that I drive to meet them, pay cash. The last time I met them was at a gas station, young kid who acted sketchy and wanted to get in my car. I will order from them again. No credit card, no mailing. Seems safer to me
