    Stay Clear of this place, they DO NOT report to all agencies and the customer service is very very bad. The hold times are terrible. Amber, Heather ** in customer service play phone games. Try calling in and ask for a Supervisor, you will never get one. Fingerhut credit did nothing for me and customer is key for me. You will wait on hold all the time and the products are trash. I only did this to rebuild my credit. They wanted everything but a blood sample to open up a very small line of credit. They sell your phone asap, so beware about that. Oh and they re-pull credit, over and over, yep, pulling your score down, they hurt me in the long run and I thought they would help me.

    There are better quality ways like a secured/unsecured card with your local bank than this. When I told others about fingerhut, when applying for items, they told me, glad it was not on my report because they look at this as low level credit and would be worse with them on my credit. After much research, they are owned by bluestream. Their credit application changes on the fly and they do not notify you of changes or anything. I am reporting them about that, they are using predatory practices, sad sad sad.

    Made payments towards a product that was $170. Never received my purchase. After calling customer service twice they told me to fill out an affidavit stating I had never received my order, once they received it they would refund me. Over a month later and they're still claiming they've never received my affidavit, and are STILL trying to bill me for this item. Customer service could not be quicker to dismiss you and get you off the phone. This website is a complete scam. Never got my money back. STAY AWAY.

    I am writing this letter in regards of my order back in October 2013. My payments was paid via auto pay. When I spoke with a young lady regarding this order; she questioned me about past due payment. I explained that this was a deferred payment order. She was suppose to document it in my account; instead it was reported to the credit bureau and pulled my score down by 33 points. Thank you in advance for reviewing my account. This isn't a complaint; it is a concern.

    I ordered several items and they were shipped separately. I received some of my items, but one was never received. After dealing with the post office for a solution, I contacted Fingerhut for help. The only thing they could offer was a $5.00 credit towards my next purchase. I'm now without the product and I still have a bill. The representative was very short and quickly ended the call. This my last purchase with Fingerhut.

    I went from a 530 credit score to a 605 using this company. All products were shipped on time & I've had no problems from them. I pay 10 days in advance before the bill is due and I currently have an $1100 limit. It has been my pleasure to deal with them. My initial credit limit was $200 and was moved up to a $400 limit during holidays. From making all payments on time my limit was increased to $1100. Are there products slightly overpriced? Yes they are but it's nothing to compared to building your credit.

    Building credit is about opening accounts and keeping them active for as long as possible. In regards to credit building if you have a poor credit score and wish to rebuild input accurate information, verify it before purchasing and make the minimum payment ON TIME. Trust me, it will help you way more than hurt you. People pay credit repair agencies to do the same and get nothing in return but a better credit score. Why not build your credit and get something in return for it?

    I went to order a laptop from fingerhut.com, I got approved for $500 credit (Really? That low? If I wanted something under $500 I would just pay for it in full). I had just recently moved and was in need of a new laptop. There was an alright laptop at $2999, with monthly payments around $120.75. I figured fine, I'll just pay it off in 2 payments, not a big deal. I go to check out the laptop, I can't do express delivery or any sort of expedited delivery options AT ALL. It's literally not an option. It's going to take over 2 weeks to get it. Alright fine. It sucks but it's not that huge of a deal... But then, I go to the payments. Here's where it gets fun.

    So, remember the $500 credit they gave me? Well, I can only do the monthly payment options on orders below my credit limit. If it was under $500 I would just pay it in full. What's the point of the $500 credit then? So, since it's over that I HAVE to buy it out. There's no option or way to do monthly payments on something that's over that limit. The entire site is a giant sham. It's basically a bait and switch. It's just lies and gimmicks to get you in. Oh, they also gave me a "FREE" promo code for any new purchase. Here's the fine print for the "Promo code":

    "Offer ends 8/22/15 at 11:59 pm CT. Purchase any product Sitewide to receive a FREE Surprise Gift. Enter promotion code E2871 during checkout to get your free gift. Not valid on Fingerhut FreshStart purchases. Not valid on previous purchases. Promotion code only valid online. One promotion code per order. Cannot be combined with other Fingerhut offers."

    Sounds easy enough. I'm making a purchase before that date and time. It is SITE WIDE, meaning... ANYTHING on the site. Not valid on Fingerhut FreshStart purchases. What's FreshStart? It's for college kids, basically. Does not apply to me. There were no other offers, this isn't a previous offer (I'm still in checkout). I'm doing it online and only this promo code. So why is the code not valid? Oh is this just another gimmick to get people in? That's all this site is.

    I was a Fingerhut customer in excellent standing, having over $3500 credit limit. But kept my balances under $400. On 06-30-2015 I ordered a 10 piece towel set and a sunbeam 2 slice toaster. When I received the order by UPS, it was missing the bath towels and toaster, they sent me multiple kitchen towels. After speaking with several CS supervisors, they tell me it is UPS fault. Called Corporate offices and was told, they would send me a replacement order free of charge with free shipping. That order went to a different address, different city. They wanted me to retrieve this from that city. After 5 days I never received my order. Instead they sent me a $50 discount promo code to be used on my next $200 order. This is supposed to make up for my original order. After numerous calls and emails go unanswered, they close my account.

Offer no credit for putting senior customers thru all this wasting of time to contact them by email for no real help. I told them we would cancel acct with them. You think they care... What happened to the customer is always right. They think they are to keep your money for stuff that don't work properly. There are many complaints now about them.

    After more than ten years as a loyal customers, last October I made an order for more than $800.00. When my order came in by UPS I sign for my shipment for 4 or 5 boxes. When I sat in my living room to check my order, I realized there was a item missing. I called within 5 minutes to report my missing item. The representative told me that they would send me an affidavit for me to fill out and after receiving the affidavit they will start an investigation. I did everything they asked me to do. Two weeks later I received a letter stating that there was nothing they could do for me since I had signed for the package.

    I asked to speak to a supervisor and I explained my situation. He sent me a letter saying that I had to fill out a police report. I tried doing that, however, the police officer at the precinct told me that they don't do that and that Fingerhut should treat loyal Customers better. Matter was never solved and I was forced to pay $149.00 for an item I never got.

    To make matters worst I had out pay setup for my account, which I thought would take care of my bill. Three months later, after closing my account for the lousy treatment I received from Fingerhut. I got a letter from them for late payments I DON'T KNOW WHY, IF MONEY WAS TAKEN FROM MY ACCOUNT MONTHLY, WHICH AFFECTED MY CREDIT SCORE. Thanks for nothing Fingerhut. You really screwed me big time.

    I am in good standing with Fingerhut and have no problems with billing or payments. It is the products that I have ordered that I am having a problem with and them not letting me return them. They are sometimes not as they describe them to be. The dutch oven pot I ordered cracked the first time I used it and the door organizer I ordered had so many parts and it would not go together where it fit the door. They would not let me return them. So my warning to all is be very careful what you order, take care to return immediately, and know that the cost of returning is out of your pocket. I will not order again from Fingerhut. I don't like a company who does not work with their customers on returns.

    Last October, my Fingerhut account got hacked into. Someone changed my identity. They changed both my address and phone number to out of state.. They stole a $779 Sony DSLR camera from my account. Even though I found out within the week, the camera was already delivered. I brought my case all the way to the FDIC, who requested the file from Web Bank/Fingerhut. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I had the right to that file. And Web Bank said "No" to the FDIC, boldly violating the law. There is a law out there to protect victims.

    Two weeks after saying that they would not release the file to the FDIC, they sent me a CD recording of the hacking incident. They used a relay system and all they had was my social security number, not even an account number or catalogue. The email to track the order was not mine. I was told of family involvement and a supposed friend (aka criminal) overtook my Chromebook at the time of the order, but everything is hopeless. Afterwards, they hacked into iCloud, mail, T-Mobile, AT&T, Samsung, always changing security questions, birthdates, passwords... I mean there is a huge hacking network that has even hacked into the credit bureaus, my tax files, my sec-8... and I could have stopped a hacking network if Web Bank/Fingerhut had not violated the law and protected a hacking network.

    Sad to say, Fingerhut likes criminals and Web Bank is criminal. And these hackers broke into my apartment a couple of weeks ago and stole a SIM card for a tablet and installed a tablet's SIM card into a T-Mobile Apple iPhone4s, which hacked into my T-Mobile account and altered my outgoing and incoming calls... I think for the sake of this nation's security, Fingerhut/Web Bank should not protect criminals... Sad... my phone is never secure any longer and no one can call either home or cell very well.

    We have good credit and no late payment history. We opened an account with a 400 limit. We always paid early or paid it off. Within a few months we got an increase to 800. We never had any issues and continued paying as previously stated. We ordered in May of 2014 and continued paying our new bill as agreed. It should be mentioned that we closely monitor our credit reports! All of them! All of a sudden we are getting alerts for late payments. I contacted Fingerhut and they stated their mistake and late fees were removed and credit bureaus would be updated. Well they did half that. They are still reporting us as 6 months late.

    It has been ten months of fighting with them to square this away. Well now the judge can figure it out. I have filed a lawsuit against them for damages caused from their intentional actions in not righting their wrongs. Since this is an active suit all I can say is the damages and fees are quite a bit more than their little pittance that I have spent with them!

Well, I call support about this and they were unwilling to do anything to help. Said I was responsible for the tablet that was stolen, and that unless I found it I would still have to pay for it. I told them that I would not pay for a product that I never got because it was stolen in the mail. Well, a year comes around and they are trying to sue me for the tablet I never even got.

    I noticed that my balance wasn't going down but remaining the same after two payments, now three. I was given a credit limit of $500. I missed one, maybe two payments so to make up for it, I agreed to make a $59 payment each month instead of $29 the minimum. All I had used was $388.41 out of my $500. Anyway, the credit dept had me schedule until Dec. 2015 with $59 payments which would have me paying $295.00 more than I owe. I called to speak with someone today and they didn't have my phone number but some else's. I was told that I was being charged interest of 8.00 a month and I also had been charged 26.00 for Feb, Mar, and April. Now mind you, my last payment is next month and I will have paid the 388.41 in full, but according to my balance, I haven't paid anything. "Why is that"?

But, I started offering things from them over a year ago, a Shark brand iron that were no good. Well paid for that, and ordered some other items. Got to the point of almost paying that out, and then needed a set of curtains for my living room. Got it from Fingerhut. Ever since I've added this new item onto my account, they have been trying to get late charges from me. Sending me bills to this effect.

    When I call Customer Service, they constantly tell me how they will remove the fee, but want me to agree to pay still a fee by saying: "we're going to charge you this amount, okay?" And I reply saying, "No! Because I do not owe you all anything." There is no reason for late charges when you have my credit card on file.

    I'm going to have to say in all my 60 years and companies this takes the cake. Since I opened an account with Fingerhut in Nov 2013 I have had no problems. until yesterday. I have handled my account the same way from the beginning. Bill is due between 25 and 28 of each month. From the first one due I made payments between the 1st and the 10th as not to be late by one hour. Well this time in May I made it on the first day of the month. I always get a statement saying it's due this time due on the 27th but already paid. Today I get a phone call the 29. With their spell of this is an attempt to collect a debt. I check my bank account and my Fingerhut account and it has gone thru both. So I call back and she say I'm in default for my payment that was due on the 27th. I said I made that payment on the 1st of May as always. She says your due again on the 27th and now it's late.

    Still explaining that no the payment for May was made on the first of May. After speaking to 3 people that there was so much noise in the background and accents so thick it was difficult to even understand what they were trying to say. I finally deciphered that she was say I made it too early and now another was due. And unless I made it I would be in default. I have never heard of a company saying you made your payment too early and now you're in default. She was mad when I said that and hung up on me.

    I finally got hold of a ** on Chat help that was very helpful and promised this would be cleared up in 24 to 48 Hrs and late fees would be removed. This call center is very unfriendly and down right rude. I hope the calls are recorded and someone in upper management listens to them from start to finish. My personal opinion is they are not in the U.S. No one I have ever spoken with speaks clear English and talk fast and Do Not intend on listening. My intention now is to pay them off as I have several other options with less interest and much lower payments. Sorry FingerHut I'm DONE!

The chains and bracelet sets that I ordered specifically say 10k yellow gold.

    So, I get the order on May 9, 2015, I open the package, and the jewelry just don't look right. I immediately go to a jewelry store and asked if they can please check the jewelry to see if it is real, the jewelry store told me it was fake! I was really upset, so, I took it to another jewelry store, they also told me it was fake! I called Fingerhut the same day, which was corporate Fingerhut customer service. I explained the situation to a representative, that told me a supervisor would get back to me in about 2 to 3 business days. Nobody got back to me at all - I waited 5 days and no one called me back.

    I called again, their answer was "I apologize for the inconvenience," but would not fix the problem. I called again 2 days later, they said the same thing to me, and also would not answer me why they are selling fake jewelry in their catalog, I think it is false advertising, they have it in all of their catalogs, and it's not even real! I had called them at least 8 other times to fix this, and they want me to send them back the jewelry for credit! That's it, that's all they are going to do. I don't know what to do from here.

    I ordered a bubble spa for 685.00 on 4/20 delivery was for may 11, needless to say UPS lost the package, and in order to get my credit an investigation would have to be done on both sides - UPS and Fingerhut. Ok 5/11/2015 I ordered a new one - another 685 delivery for 5/21/2015. UPS lost that one too. And must complete another investigation. So now I'm out 1500.00.

Well today has just torn it with me I payed these people and they called again 6 times since 9 this morning CDT. I finally lost my patience with them as I told the previous 5 callers they had been payed and to quit calling. The last person pushed it over the edge calling the calls courtesy calls and refusing to listen that her company had already called 5 times previously and that the 6th call is considered harassment. I ask for a supervisor and did not get one as she thought I was too mad - guess what I'm beyond mad at this point!!!

    I have always paid every payment on time and they continually increase my credit limit. Some things are priced reasonably while others are way more expensive than in stores. I've had one bad experience with customer service, otherwise every time they were great and accommodating. I have had the flexibility to purchase tons of things from a grill, to an iPad, etc., and pay a low monthly price. They also do cute little promotions from time to time like free shipping, deferring payments, % off, etc. Yes, I understand that their shipping charges can be pretty expensive at times but if you wait for free shipping promotions, you're golden. I find them to be very easy to deal with and convenient. I will continue to purchase from them from time to time when needed.

    To be totally fair Fingerhut has given me very little problems. I pay online, I receive what I order sometimes not in the time frame need so never never order anything but standard. It has been my biggest issue with them, I have never gotten it any earlier than standard shipping even when I've paid express fees. I know there are things I pay a little more for but as they say it is what it is. Do keep all original packaging in good condition if you think an issue will arise. It is a return issue with them. Fair warning but all in all they have not in the three to four years given me any major issues. Customer services does have some issues but I work with the public so I have quite a bit of patience and I know how to get my point across one way or other.

    Fingerhut is not Walmart or Target, or any other company you deal with, do they have issues? Yes. Can I deal with the ones I faced? Yes. Doesn't mean down the road I won't have a major one but the ones I have I've handled and so have they. Maybe not always the outcome I want but they have worked with me. Sorry for those who have had problems that can't be resolved.

    After putting the nativity set together and putting up all the decorations I noticed that the plug timer did not work properly. The construction of the nativity set was not of good quality. There was paint missing on the nose of Mary (See attachment. How ironic, the photo from website shows exactly what we received) and the light for the donkey was so dim it could not be seen at night. Also, the staff for the Shepherd was missing. I spoke with customer service and was told to use the return label that was included with the shipment. There was only one label. I called Fedex and they picked up the same 3 boxes that was delivered to me.

    After several weeks had passed, I started receiving calls from Fingerhut representatives asking for payment. I informed them that I had returned all items to Fingerhut and that I owed nothing. Trying to communicate with the representatives was very difficult because of the language barrier. They followed a script regardless of what I said. I was told over & over to pay and they would take care of the rest. Fingerhut representatives was very harassing, calling 4 times or more a day. It got to the point I blocked them on my cell phone. On March 10, 2013, a woman called (could not understand her name) and stated Fingerhut would send out a form. I never received the form only received incorrect statements.

    After further investigation it seems that the problem is that there are 2 different tracking numbers associated with the order but only one return label. That label had the return tracking # ** for the Master Craft 3 Outlet Outdoor Timer PH006 and tracking # ** for the 9-pc. African American Nativity Set K7492. I am 70 years old and my family and my wife's family grew up on Fingerhut! But as it stands right now we will never use Fingerhut again!!!

Was told that it was a mistake that I had actually over paid and I was due that amount back and I would receive a check. The following month after this I received yet another bill for the same amount. Once again I phoned and once again was told the same. The third month I received yet another bill I yet again. I called and at this time I was told that I have home protection and was being billed for this. I then told fingerhut this is a mistake.

I then phoned fingerhut and told them that I was not even in the system so therefore they are to remove this from theirs. I was told that no this is not what they have in their system. I then told them "how can you when they don't even have me in theirs so I have not ordered, did not want and paid off my account and at no time was I made aware of anything."

Well it seems that they credited me $0 and when I called to ask about it I was told she saw that I ordered 2 (different orders) so I was charged for 2 (no kidding really) to which I told her one was returned so I should get a credit right? She said it was returned damaged.

    It wasn't damaged when I sent it back and stated that and that's when she told me she had found the credit and told me how much the credit was for (I had told her system showing credit $0). Well I'm still waiting and am not happy about it. It seemed like these reps are reading from a script and not a very good one I might add. Tried to do an online chat and was told the wait time would be 34 minutes (ummm no thanks) so hopefully I will get a response for the email I sent.

    I've been with them for 3 years now and never had issues before but it seems that ever since they had a "system upgrade" stuff has been screwed up. I've always paid on time but had a medical issue in March and scheduled my payment for after the due date so when I called to talk about the refund all she kept telling me I was past due and I needed to make a payment (no kidding and will no longer be past due in May). When I called about this return I was told I needed to call and talk to a rep and she tried to give me the number (that I used and got her) so I just basically said never mind and hung up. I did call back and that's when I was told all the other stuff (I know I told this story backwards).

I can't pay the 29 dollars a month as agreed upon and then the lady got real rude with me and I needed to pay off my account faster and I told her I cannot afford to pay any more then what I agreed upon paying.

    And then she said if I refused to pay the new amount that she was going to turn me over to the collection agency. I told her I'm on social security and I cannot afford to pay anymore than what I first agreed to pay. She said if I refuse to pay the new amount that she has no other choice but to turn my account over to collections. I said, "I'll only pay the 29 dollars a month, you have to accept my money," then the lady told me I have already turn your account over to collections. And she hung up on me then the next day I called Fingerhut and they told me that my account had been turn over to collection and there was nothing they could do for me.

    And one of the worst things about their product was the rings all the gold fell off and my wife's name was misspelled. And the gold was fake. Now I have two rings both with mine and my wife's name was misspelled and there is no gold on the rings. After three months the gold fell off and the names are completely faded off.

    And I ask them about repairing or fixing the rings and they told me I had to finish paying for my products before they can do anything for me. And this was the same person who I had trouble with about my payment. The ring were only 80 a piece, the medal detector was 179 and the mattress was 100. And we made 3 months of payments 29 dollars and the fourth month of 46 dollars. Now I owe them over seven hundred dollars.

    I don't mind paying what I owe but only what I owe and no more than what I'm left owed which is lower than my original amount. Not seven hundred dollars. I refuse to pay anything until they fix it. Until then they will get nothing.

    By far, one of the worst experience i'lI ever had to deal with. Requested help returning a box spring for more than a month. I will double billed for asking for a replacement item. After box spring was picked up, I called Fingerhut Customer Service to find out the status of delivery for new box spring and was told I would be billed for a new one. I then asked for a supervisor to see if that would help the issue and was told I would be contacted in 24 hours.

    I just called Fingerhut to find out the status of my called and was told I still have to wait a few more hours. When I requested to speak with a supervisor again, I was told she is ''not around''? I was overexcited when I first got my Fingerhut account. Really happy to go online and order items and keep and update payments. I have honored my part by still paying my monthly bill.

    I would like to say to everyone never order furniture from them. God forbid it is damage. You will have a headache in a half trying to have what was delivered, picked up and replaced!! Poor service. Overall I recommend just going to Bobs. You will get a better deal anyhow. I have never taken the time to sign up to a site just to complain. But their Customer Service department needs so new quality control, maybe an overview because not enough people have made complaints!!

    I placed an order on December 19 for a Leap Frog for my daughter for Christmas or her birthday which was 1/10/15. They had a promotion going on if you ordered before midnight it would be free shipping so I was game. I was a new customer trying to build my credit so I knew Fingerhut had been around for years and I thought it would work out fine.

    I placed the order paid my $30 fresh start deposit and received the order confirmation. At that time I realized they were shipping my order to an old address. This was crazy, I just updated my information before placing the order. I called and they were already closed. I sent an email and was told to wait til Monday to speak to customer service. I called on Monday spoke to a guy and explained that the order had the wrong shipping address. He told me it takes 10 days to update information, but he would change it right away. I was relieved and thanked him for his help.

    About two days later I received a shipping confirmation for Ga. I live in California and my item was being shipped from Nevada. Can you see my frustration start to build? I called back and spoke to a different rep of course who said I had to contact UPS directly to make the change. I never heard that before in my life, but trying to feel hopeful I did just that. UPS of course told me there was nothing they could do. The company had to call them directly. I called back got another rep explained everything all over and was told they would take care of it.

    At this time I need some insurance that will do that. I asked to speak to a manager and the response was, "THEY ARE ALL IN A MEETING." Pissed now and ready to explode I asked for a call back that never came. I called back days later requested a manager and was told again "THEY ARE ALL IN A MEETING." Is this a part of their script, code on my account, they always say the same thing. Even longer story made short today is 3/19/15 and I still haven't received my daughter's Leap Frog.

I was approve for 230.00 credit. I was told that I had to put a 30.00 deposit down for shipping and handling. I placed an order and didn't like the rings. I returned the items but wanted to place another order. They had never updated my account so that I can place another order. I then decided that I will use another email address and pay for another item in full. I wanted it ship to another address and it decided that it will ship it to my billing address. When I call customer service to correct the problem she informed me that the order had to be cancel but she can't guaranteed that it will go through. If the items were to be ship out that I can refuse it. Why would like refuse it once it arrive? Just plain ridiculous!!!!!!!!

    The Customer service is terrible. I called 4 times to get help removing the credit account off of my credit. They helped a little bit but they did not fully complete my request. They told me to submit an affidavit (the account opening was the result of identity theft). The affidavit is the record of me saying I had identity theft. I mailed it back, and they ignored it. I called and then after this they told me they could not take it off my credit. I went to the credit card company and submitted a fraud alert on all my reports. So I knew I was doing the right thing. The lady on the phone called it a civil matter. That was rude. Inconsiderate. Do not buy with them. I am not the first 1-star review.

    When I started out with Fingerhut everything was great, my credit even improved and my limit got larger. Then I received a catalog in I believe in September 2014, that said 'No payments till January'. I was happy about that and so far had a great experience that I called and made a phone order for a few tablets and a few other things. I then verified with the person on the phone my order and catalog number and made sure everything was covered so I wouldn't pay 'til January and he said yes and I proceeded with the order. Shortly after I received a bill saying that I already had a payment due in October so I called Fingerhut and explained I didn't have payments 'til January. They said we see it here but we don't why it wasn't applied and they said don't worry, they would fix it.

    Basically I kept getting the bill and the interest was adding and so were the late payments, and I just couldn't pay this bill and on top of it all, it was affecting my credit. I made the purchase thinking I wouldn't have to pay 'til January and it worked with my budget. So I kept calling, they said I could only email Customer Service for an issue like this and when I did that, they were no help at all and I eventually just gave up. I didn't know what to do anymore but just spread the word about Fingerhut and how they deal with situations like this and the customer service is horrible as well. So in January I ended paying everything I owed to the bill since October 2014, all late charges and all interest plus my bill.

    Item was returned a month after receiving it in the mail. Accidentally fell off the counter and the face cracked into tiny cracks. I just wanted it replace or repair under the extended warranty that I thought I purchased when I order the iPod. I received a letter explaining something about item was returned after the home trial period was over and that they look at the age and condition of what I returned.

    Their returns department specialist checked my item and found that it had too much wear and tear or was overused. They gave me a date of 4/09/2015 to decide if I want my item back to contact custom services, do nothing if I did not want it back or let them know if I want it dispose or given to charity. They cannot credit my account, or give me a refund. I was politely told that whether I want my item back or not I am still responsible for the remaining payment on the damaged iPod. I understood that just wanted the repair. I returned the invoice but failed to make a copy. Will have to download a copy of invoice.

    I did business with Finger Hut years and years ago. Their prices were in range. You made payments every month. It was great! Suddenly, something very wrong happened to Finger Hut. This happened last year. I ordered a 3-drawer chest for $130 to keep extra linens in. Finger Hut STOLE $170.00 out of my checking account -- remember, it was only $130.00. It was now paid off.

    Prior to that, I wanted to get that debt out of the way to buy a specific TV. I had ordered a specific TV. After they STOLE the $$ out of my account, "I DELETED" the TV and "Un-subscribed" to Finger Hut forever! For months, I kept getting calls and letters to pay on a TV for months I didn't have. They sent me text messages... "X amount due on......" I'd text back: "You won't find a shipping bill because I deleted it and "Un-subscribed" last year."

    I just started using fingerhut to order items I need. Lots of problems just to place my order. But we will skip that for now. I received my first order in January which I tried to order and get by x-mas. Those problems I referred to earlier. My invoice said my first payment was 2/13/2015. I sent in that payment in Jan. (for Feb. Payment) then, since I had a little money I sent in a payment in Feb. (March payment). I get an e-mail saying I needed to pay March bill now or be charged a late fee. I called their totally worthless customer service dept. who informed me that my payment for March was added to my Feb. payment. When asked why, I get this lengthy explanation about billing cycles, cut off date for payment, and a bunch of other crap, nobody would know unless they worked there.

    I asked where could I find this in all the paper they sent me which was a lot-- constant reminders of what happens if I do not pay or late with payment. Nothing about early payments. What has happened to customer service? It is now corporate service, how hard would it had been to credit my acct. for Feb. and March when asked. If your employer has not given you the power to do that then you really can't do a customer service job. (You are basically just bad entertainment). I wish there was a number less than zero.

The item didn't fit and I returned it but learned I had to pay $8.00 to send it back. I received a bill shortly after that for $46(ish). I knew the item returned had not gotten to them yet.

Thinking it was a error, I contacted Fingerhut to learn that they still expected me to pay the $16.00 shipping charge plus a $7.00 charge for being late. Then they wanted to charge me $1.00 for doing a check over the phone. Today I did a $25 check to keep this from going to collections. This experience has cost me a total of $42.00 as of today.

    I started with Fingerhut FlexPay at $230 with a $30 upfront payment. That was over 2 years ago. I have always made payments early or on time. But, for some reason I still cannot get a limit over the $230. I am still getting Letters to join the FlexPay credit. Someone please tell me why? Is there really a way to get an increase for my credit?

    I got a catalog saying I have $700 credit limit so I wait by Christmas item to place a order. And when I did, the laptop was not like I wanted so I returned it in 3 days of receiving it and asked for a exchange in return.. While I was waiting in my exchange I got 1 e-mail saying they received the return and it's in warehouse and being processed. 2nd e-mail 2 weeks later saying it was done being processed and now they are doing my exchange order. So I waited.

    It's now 2 weeks after Christmas and I never receive my exchange for my return. I called and they tell me because my payment was due on 3rd and past due, which was not my fault that processing took so long, that I won't be getting the exchange item from them until I pay my past due amount of $198, because they also change a late fee for no reason and no notice. So I called again asking to speak to a different rep so I could get them to understand what I was asking and he said I should receive my item by Monday...

    No item yet, today is Thursday and am pissed because last night I got a letter in mail saying that I couldn't get time until I was to pay past due... They are such liars and lied to me more than once... Now am really pissed.

    My credit line started at $125. Well within 2 years, it was increased to $1,200. Last Fall, they gave me a credit line of $2,200 contingent on my maxing out my credit to this amount by the end of this past December. I didn't buy any more merchandise. For several months, I didn't see any difference in my monthly balance, it remained the same right to the penny, even though I always paid more than the minimum payment. Too much of a coincidence. I called customer service and they assured me that everything was in order. I've never been late with a payment. My balance is presently $165 that will be paid in full within a couple of weeks. Thanks to them, they may have improved my credit score. However, I believe that my payments were not properly applied for several months. Wonder if any one else has had the same experience.

    I recently purchased 2 watches from Fingerhut and after 2 weeks, sent them back because they were not what I wanted. I kept the original packing and the watches were in excellent condition when I returned them. I understand that I needed to pay for return shipping which was $7.95 each that was fine. I disputed the $13.99 they tried charging me when the products were purchased because I used the free shipping codes for both of them. I called them several times and after almost getting done settling with them, I got hung up on 3 separate times.

    I also was apparently calling India because the people I called could barely understand me or I them. It was ridiculous trying to explain to them basic issues I had and when I finally got someone that spoke English, I thought my issues were resolved. I got the bill and still found that nothing was resolved and I also saw that I was charged for some sort of depreciation of the items that I returned in perfect shape and perfect packaging. In total, I sent them $69.99 and after all the shipping charges, the depreciation charges and returns shipping charges, I had a grand total of $18 in positive credit left. They also won't send a refund to your bank or credit card but will give you more credit for returned items. I tried the chat line and the person ended up ignoring what I was explaining and ended our chat session for no reason and nothing resolved.

    Fingerhut is a scam company with overpriced items, exceptionally poor customer service and they could care less. I told them to close my account and don't bother sending me more crap catalogs or emails. I still had the $18 left and I'm sure they will keep it even though they owed me more money than that because they are a rip-off company looking to scam customers anyway they can. I would NEVER recommend them to anyone and urge you to stay away from them and tell your friends to stay away from them. Amazon is much cheaper anyway. It should be called the Middle Fingerhut for the customers they scam on a daily basis.

    My experience w/ Fingerhut has been horrible. First, the customer service rep had such a strong Asian accent I could hardly understand her. She kept repeating the same, "I'm sorry mon but..." I ordered a feather bed and put $30 down. It did not arrive as scheduled so I phoned the company to inquire as to WHY? I got the same Asian female with her, "I'm sorry mon" limited English. My order had been cancelled but yet, I was not informed by phone or mail. I ordered boots since the feather bed was not available. They were due today. I called and the "I'm sorry mon" female answered. She had no reason why my order had never been shipped. I spoke to a lead agent named Sally. She has no accent but she said, I'm sorry ma'am and repeated the same word for word as the previous rep.

    I want my deposit returned! Fingerhut has had the $30 for 3 months. Do they do this with other customers? I'm contacting my credit card company and the BBB. I threw their catalog in the garbage. This company is pathetic and I will never recommend it to anyone.

    I am writing this to inform you of how the personnel at Fingerhut treated me following an order I placed for a DVD player for my son for Christmas. The order was placed on December 16th and I was told that I would receive it before Christmas. I emailed your company to inquire where it was on the 22nd. I received a response that it would be shipped 10 days after my payment clears!! My payment cleared on December 18th. I called the customer service number and after a very long wait, got to speak to someone who informed me that my payment had not been received and until it was, there was nothing he could do. I told him I was looking at my bank statement and it had cleared. After going back and forth for 5 minutes, he finally asked me to hold and he would see what he could do to get it to me by Christmas Eve. Approximately 5 minutes later, the line went dead!! He had hung up on me!! Even if that was an accident, he would have my number and should have called me back!!

    I called the customer service line again on the 23rd and the 24th, only to be put on hold FOREVER! I got so frustrated, I just hung up. On December 29, I got another email that my order has finally shipped. It is now January 5th and my son still doesn't have his Christmas gift! EVERY company in the United States got their customers packages to them by Christmas. I am livid over the fact that it is the first week of January and my son doesn't have his gift yet. I am also livid over the fact that your company advertises daily on T.V. that they have reliable customer service and stand behind this fact.

    I want you to know that you have ruined my families Christmas, that I will NEVER ORDER FROM FINGERHUT AGAIN, and I plan on telling my story to ANYONE AND EVERYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!! In addition, I intend to write a scathing review on your site with a detailed account of how I was treated and how disappointed you made my child's holiday.

    My roommate deals with this horrific company, a second chance overpriced retailer, and glad that I do not. He is presently out of town on business, and I guess is late with a payment or something, but there is nothing anyone can do until he returns. However, that does not stop these non-English speaking fools. They call and call and call 4-5 times a day, looking for him. Being honest and telling them the truth falls on deaf and stupid ears. They hear the fact he is out of town but don't listen.

    As the owner of the landline they keep calling, and as I have nothing to do with this stupid outfit, I put a halt to it this morning after call number one at 8:01 a.m. Again the same stupid Asian woman, that must have an IQ the size of a corn husk. I told her to cease and desist with this nonsense as I own the phone and not he. She pauses, acknowledges that, and then proceeds to go on with the call being recorded and once again looking for my roommate. No one can be that removed or stupid. But the phone was removed I hope, and I ended the constant annoyance.

    Save yourself lots of grief. All the merchandise for the most part they sell can be had on Amazon and eBay for a lot less money. And yes it is new as well. The state attorney general of wherever these idiots are based really should take a lot closer look at this outfit. I am sure they are breaking and at the very least skirting a lot of laws governing retailers.

    On Dec 5th I made a purchase using Fingerhut's Fresh Start Program. I had to make a down payment of $30 before they could send my items. I did so the very moment I logged out of their website using my bill pay through my bank. An email from my bank came in on the 9th of December saying that the transaction between them and Fingerhut was complete. I waited a day to check the status on the order and have not seen any changes other than a message stating I would need to make my down payment before the items could ship, but when I check my account history with Fingerhut it shows that they did get the payment on the 9th and that I show a $30 credit. I call Fingerhut and ask why if the monies were received they haven't yet shipped or processed my order. The person's answer was, it takes 7 to 10 business days for payments to process before they send out any items.

    Well I explained that that is true when mailing a check out, I payed using my bank and the money had already been added to my Fingerhut account and was already processed. She had no response to that, she simply continued to remind me that it takes 7 to ten business days. I called again on the 15th and got the same stupid response. Again on the 24th with the same response. So I decide at this point I will send an email out to their customer service department on the 26th. Shortly after, that same day I receive a reply stating the issues has been handed over to a specialist and has been resolved by this person and my items will ship within the next 3 to 5 business days. I log in to check and indeed the items status changed to "Label Created." Now it's been 3 days and status is the same. What is wrong with this company. Is it a joke to them to play with people this way?

I spoke with someone at customer service yesterday and she told me that delivery dates are estimated. She also said that the cancelled item is out of stock. Apparently they continue taking orders on items without being sure they actually have the item in their inventory.

    I will pay off the amount that I owe and NEVER order another item from this catalog. If I have the time I will go through the effort of returning most of it because at this late date I now have to go out and battle traffic and other last minute holiday shoppers to replace the items that will not be delivered. Which is obviously what I tried to avoid in the first place! The gifts are mostly for our 7 and 10 year old boys.

Why am I assed out and stuck with all their errors?? This will be the last time dealing with Fingerhut once it's all paid off.

    I opened a account with them, paid it off within 3 payment. I guess they got mad so they closed my account. Told me I had reapply all over again. I called them, they said it was a mistake. In turn, sent me another card. When I went to use it, they said it was no good. I will never do business with them or tell anyone else to do business with them.

    We started out with the 200 credit limit, and was doing good. I made my payments the day I get paid, the 3rd, and also made 114.00 extra payment the 29th of november. I got an email saying to use my available credit of 150.00, my limit was 600. I placed an order, it was denied, and 2 days later, many hours of calls, a mean tempered woman cindy said we would get a letter she didn't know why either. We started for a credit score anyway and appreciate doing that, but I will never place another order, and when paid off, will never refer anyone to use them for any reason. This is how they thanked me for being a good and loyal customer. The order came to 119.96 shipping and all, but had no order number, soon as we ordered it it said contact cust. service. Now it says we are over our limit. This is the first company I have heard of that will take away from you for doing right by them.

    I had called in regarding my account being charged a different monthly amount from the previous month. The customer service person informed me to just pay the amount I had paid, I did. He never informed that I would be charged any late fee of any kind. He just said "pay the previous amount." That information given me has cost me more fees and cost me. I spoke to 5 different reps and none would resolve this problem.

    I placed an online order early Black Friday. I used a 10% promo code instead of Fingerhut’s Black Friday 30% off promo code. I called back, 7 hours later, to apply the 30% off promo code. They told me I couldn't do that so I cancelled my whole order which totaled over $900. They told me that my order has been cancelled. Well, Fingerhut does not cancel your order (I placed the order 7 hours ago and with the technology that we have today, Fingerhut is unable to stop that item being shipped to your house). Totally unbelievable. I could even stop something that I am shipping out from the UPS store within minutes. Needless to say, part of our order was 2 area rugs... which I thought was cancelled. Nope, they shipped it to my house. My son opened them thinking they were the two we decided to order from Ginnys, after all of our problems with Fingerhut and now it is going to cost us a fortune to send back these opened area rugs I cancelled to begin with.

    Me and my husband have ordered with you 2 seasons now. This season I had available credit but the system we were told was down. We called back were told our order was completed. We called back because the man did not seem to know much. Called back and was told the order was not made. We made the order and right when we were almost done we were hung up on. We called back and your center was closed. Someone wanted to go home. I called another company and had my order complete in 5 minutes. We will never use your company again. Very angry. We spent days on the phone with your company for nothing.

    I had ordered a Garmin GPS. The price was like $269 on 10/12/2014. I ordered one more on 10/27/2014 and that price was $149. They charged me the same price as the first one!!!! I called them 4 or 5 times before the bill came out and they said that it was credited the difference to the account but was not.

    Fingerhut does not value their customers. I have been a customer for over 3 years in good standing and I have never received a credit increase. Fingerhut is very slick. They give temporary credit increase then tell customers they have to make purchases (for example temporary increase of $600) that total the temporary increase in order for it to become permanent. I wrote them a letter via email about this issue and got a response saying that they are not giving out any permanent increase at this time, Lol. This does not make any sense!! And for that reason I stopped placing orders with them for quite some time now. Its clear Fingerhut does not value their customers or they think that all their customers are idiots and will not see what they are really doing.

    I got approved for $250 credit with the propose of $30 down payment. I ordered the items 10/5/2014. I waited 2 to 3 weeks. I never received my items I ordered. When I logged on to my account to check to see what was going on with my items, it said my account was closed. I called and emailed to get help with this issue and they will not help. All they will do is give me a $30 credit. Now they are sending me statements for the amount due and I never got my stuff and my account was closed. So they are still trying to charge me. This company was asking for all kinds of personal info like drivers license, bank statements, insurance info, ETC. I have filed a complaint with the BBB. I want my $30 I paid back and I want my account closed.

    I started an Fingerhut account a year ago. I have perfect credit - 700+ and I always pay on time. I called and asked if they price match which she said no. I asked how come the IPAD mini 16GB sells for $239.99 and other places and they want $369.99 and she said APPLE has it that way. I told her I have perfect credit and I won't pay their overpriced items. Now I ordered the Xbox One and Kinect and I used the code BF30 which is for the 30% off for black Friday. First the discount came off then the Xbox one code goes away but the Kinect I get the discount. Now I don't know what game they're playing. But if they want my business they need to fix this. I will cancel my order too. Since having an account my limits have increased a lot. I don't need Fingerhut. Fingerhut does take advantage of people and people like me who have EXCELLENT credit won't STAND for it. They need to fix the problem.

    The Xbox one console goes for $329.99 on black Friday plus gift cards at my store and they charge $469.99 for that price. I should have Xbox One with Kinect and games. This is ridiculous. The price for the Xbox one console with Assassin creed IV and Unity $469.99, it's suppose to be $305.00 with the 30% off. They charged my account $669.98. I should of only been charged $444.99 for the Xbox one console and the Kinect which I was charged $139.99 which they took the 30% off for but not the Xbox One 500GB with Assassin's Creed IV and Unity. Bad enough I'm paying for a Ipad mini I never received and filed with UPS. They shouldn't get away with taking advantaged of good people with good credit cause they know we will pay as we don't want our credit messed up!!

    I asked to have my gifts sent to the addresses where they we meant for. And the service person said I couldn't do that because I was a first time buyer. I asked to speak to his supervisor, he left me on hold for at least 8 mins. Then came back to say his manager, he was in a meeting and couldn't come to the phone to answer my questions. I, in return said tear up my information and would not be dealing with fingerhut again, being You One manager does not have the time to speak to me.
