Never shopping with them again. This is crazy. My family was sick for over a month. I printed a return for 2 dresses within days of receiving it. I accidentally didn't send it out until past the return window. They returned the dresses to me and will not give me a refund. So upsetting. I shop from Saks, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus & Macy's all the time. Gave Dillards a try and they are awful. If they care to fix this and do the right thing, the order number is **. They were never worn and this is CLEAR because there is an attached ribbon that wraps around and through the entire dress.

There is nothing good to say working in this location-Strongsville, Ohio. The management is promoting racism and discrimination between employees. Moreover, top manager hired gangs in order to stalk and harass employees in private life. This is illegal and others are fooled in order to cooperate and believe this is in "good" faith. What a maniac! He got his back by corrupted law enforcement that is why he thinks his head is covered. He needs to be investigated for slandering people by making up lies around the community!

Per a salesperson's recommendation, I bought a pair of boots which I really liked and planned to keep them. So I disposed of the carton. The next day, I got an email about a clearance sale regarding the boots purchased. The price was now $50 less than the price I paid. I went to the store and they explained that I needed the carton for the return/refund. I asked for a credit but that is not their policy. Pretty sad. I will keep the boots but this has soured my opinion of Dillard's. Tough lesson for me.

I shop at Dillard’s pretty often and have for a number of years. On this day I was purchase couple of tree decorations but was also going to purchase a cologne for my 17 year old grandson. The women at the cologne counter as I approached told me to go pay at a different counter cause she was busy (eating). Needless to say I never bought the cologne. I consider this rude and unprofessional. She lost a sale for the store.

This is a follow up on a review I made on December 9th for a purchase on December 1st. After making a purchase on 12/1 for a Xmas gift I followed up with customer service 8 days later after no movement on my purchase. I was advised on the 9th that my purchase wasn't shipped and given the option to terminate the purchase and order again or get a refund. I opted for a refund and was advised the refund would take up to 48 hours. On the 12th not refunded. Call to check status and was told I couldn't be refunded because they shipped the package and needed it back before I could get my money. They actually ship the package 2 days after I requested my refund. Stating there is nothing they can do. They are holding my money because of their mistakes! To coin the phrase of the kids, THIS COMPANY SUCKS! I WOULDN'T BUY WATER FROM THEM IF I BURST OUT IN FLAMES IN FRONT OF THE STORE! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Dillard's has always carried high quality products in clothing. I am not a fan of the $8.95 delivery fee unless you spend $150. If I'm purchasing a $100 blouse it should ship for FREE. Nevertheless, my review is more about online shopping. Due to some experiences lately (I understand it is the Christmas season) I am going to suspend online shopping at ALL stores, not just Dillard's. The customer service/shipping (costs and delays) is what has led me to this decision. if I can't buy it at point of sale in-store, I'll do without it. Online shopping is unreliable and/or expensive. I knew at some point it would come to this and now here we are. For me online is a wrap.

Purchased item, couple days after price went to half, no price adjustment! Unless to ship it back and get a new order, and to pay 9.99 $ for shipping to return and another 9.99 $ for the new item! Will never get anything from this store again! Worst experience ever.

I have ordered from Dillards multiple times for my son. I ordered a pair of Steve Madden Loafers for homecoming, once I realized they were not going to arrive in time (as I later found out they were being shipped directly from Steve Madden, not Dillards, I placed a separate order directly with Steve Madden and got my shoes well before the ones from Dillards arrived. I contacted Dillards when I saw that they still hadn’t shipped, to cancel the order. I was told that even though they weren’t shipped yet, since they were coming from the manufacturer then I would have to wait until I received them and then return them. I am a breast cancer patient, finding the time and energy to drive 20 minutes into town to make a return is not easy for me.
The shoes did eventually arrive, later than planned, and we already had a different pair of shoes so the box got set down in another room and forgotten about as I have been very busy driving an hour every day for radiation treatments plus I have major brain fog. I am having a better day today and remembered the shoes and tried to make a return. I was told that despite everything, it falls outside of their strict 30 day return policy and there is nothing they can do. I spoke with 3 different people today and they all stated the same. They are willing to make exceptions over the holidays and extend their return policy to 60 days, but not willing for a loyal customer that is battling cancer. This is such a disgusting disgrace and Dillards should be ashamed of themself. They will never get my business again and I really hope that anyone reading this that is, has, or knows someone that’s going through cancer, doesn’t do business with them either.

This was the first and LAST time I will be buying from Dillards! They don’t care about their customers and I would give a 0 if I could. Please please reconsider buying from them! At the end of March, I purchased 3 dresses totaling $1,025. They came in on time but did not match the color of the event I was making. I kept them in their bags with the tags still on. I printed out their own return label beginning of April and gave it to USPS (like they told me to). It was well within their 30 day return window. I followed all their directions. We did not get a tracking number from the post office. Since I thought their own sticker on the box was sufficient, I thought nothing of it.
What!?! I was completely shocked! I called them for the USPS tracking which showed no activity and their own warehouse shows no information on when it was received!
I called Customer service right away and was told the manager Sandy will call me after she spoke to the warehouse. She never called me. Last Friday I called to ask for her and they told me she wasn’t there. I called today and magically she still wasn't there so this time I spoke to manager named Summer. She was no help at all and totally rude! Then got passed along to another manager Jasmine who did nothing for us! I offered to pay for the return shipping but they still said no. They can’t even prove how or when they got the box bec their warehouse said “the box didn’t have any labels on the outside of the box” ummmmm then how did they get it??? They are a bunch of liars! The only way it could have gotten to them is if the label had their address, right?
In short, they are sticking to their guns stating they got the dress end of August (Way after their 30 day window) but without providing ANY proof! I have to work very hard for $1,025 so this is very upsetting to me. I’m beyond frustrated and I am hurt that they don’t care about their customers at all! PLEASE stay far far away from Dillards! (I would also like to state that I have NEVER complained like this before. I’m not one to go around spreading bad things but this needed to be heard by all).

First I have always been taught to give a compliment first so I will do that. The clothing we have received from Dillards has been well-liked and delivery times great. Unfortunately, my recent experience will keep me from buying from Dillards again. I ordered shorts that I needed by a specific date so I paid the extra for express shipping. Unfortunately through no fault of Dillards Fedex had the package lost so we did not receive on time. Again, Dillards was great about refunding the express shipping even though it was not their fault. I'm assuming they can make a claim through FedEx. Great! So then I replied to their email asking for a return label as the items came too late for my intended use. No response, I email again. No response.
I finally today decided I needed to call them as they are not responding to emails. Only to be told that the email link I was sending messages to was turned off once they sent it to me. It does not state anywhere in the email that they will not be receiving messages back. I then asked, "Can you just please do a label over the phone then." "Well no", now they can't because it's past 30 days. "Well when I was trying to contact you it was not past 30 days. I can send you a screenshot verifying my attempt to contact you." It did not matter, it did not matter that it was an error on their part that they did not state they would not respond to emails. The customer service manager put it all back on me that it was my fault I did not try a different avenue to try and contact them.
Mind you it's only a couple days past the 30 days as well. As a business owner myself, I would of absolutely gave my customer a label. This was not the customer's fault the package did not arrive on time, it's not their fault we did not know our customers would be unaware we would not respond to the emails sent to them (an internal thing they need to fix and should be happy to know it so it can be fixed so others don't not know and call in being unhappy). I am just extremely frustrated and I think the part that frustrates me the most is that I tried and could give them proof that I tried and instead of saying great, send it to me it was you should of done more to try and get ahold of us. Never again, I was a good customer. Placed many orders. Have never returned anything and then get treated like this. I will find another place to order clothing from.

If I could give 0 I would. Please do yourself a favor and DO NOT SHOP HERE. Especially for baby items. I had purchased and infant carseat for my unborn child, and they sent the wrong color. I called customer service and was on the phone and said, "Hey I haven't opened anything yet but the sticker is reading that it's beige but it's in a gray color sticker and the Nuna label says hazelwood." She assured me to open the box to verify. I was hesitant and asked several more times as I didn't want to be unable to return it. She assured me again so I open it and it's the wrong color altogether. So I tell her. She says, "No problem. Let me get you over to returns." Perfect..
Until returns get on the phone I start to process and she asked a bunch of questions then asked if I opened it. I said, "Yes per your representative. She told me to." At that point she had stopped and said, "NOPE no returns on open boxes." I explained that I was just transferred from customer service WHO TOLD ME TO OPEN IT. She was now rude and said, "There's nothing we can do. You opened it." All I wanted was the correct seat I had ordered for my son. That's it. I fought with Dillards for over 2 1/2 weeks and they were all rude and condescending like it was my fault they sent the wrong one. And refuse to help in ANY WAY. Please take your business elsewhere. Pottery Barn Kids was SO HELPFUL and I'll be shopping there from now on.

I have been shopping at Dillards for most all of my clothes for over 20 years and I have spent thousands of dollars during that time. I just spent $444.14 on May 27, 2024. On Thursday July 18th the button popped off on a pair of capris jeans that I just bought. I had the receipt so I travelled to a local Dillards store and tried replacing or returning them. The customer service representative kept informing me that they could not accept the defective jeans because I did not have the original tags, they had been worn and washed. I did not accept that so she contacted a manager to speak with me.
The manager basically stated the same information. I kept explaining to the manager that I would not be returning the jeans if the button did not pop off in less than 2 weeks of owning them. It did not matter. She recommended I contact the manufacturer but I should not have to do that. They should stand behind the products that they buy to sell to consumers. Especially since they are very expensive! So, I need everyone that reads this to really think about Dillards return policy,
1. They give you 30 days to return the item.2. If within that 30 days you threw away the tags, worn or washed the item you cannot return that item.
3. EVEN if the item is defective, not due to your negligence just the item being defective, they still will not accept the return if the item does not have the tags, has been worn or washed.
I did not cause the button to pop off, I was just buttoning up the jeans. I planned on keeping the jeans, I was forced to return them because the button could not be put back on. All I wanted was a replacement. I will NEVER EVER shop at any Dillards stores anywhere!!!! Their return policy is set up for their benefit not the customers. HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! customer service!!!!

DILLARDS ONLINE BUYERS BEWARE, if I could give lower than no stars I would…ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, when ordering Doona strollers online from Dillards. I live in Texas and ordered this as a baby shower gift for my daughter in Ohio. The stroller received from Dillards AR Distribution Center was a complete knockoff of the stroller, not a Doona at all. We have a picture of the box that was delivered from FedEx that even shows it’s not an Doona!! After numerous calls and emails we were basically told it was our issue and to take it up with Doona. This is not a situation of a return because I didn’t like the stroller, this is I DIDN’T GET WHAT I SPENT $650 for…the item sent was cheap and worse missing parts!!! It is clear that Dillards is at fault but they refuse to fix and show no remorse. Clearly the folks in customer service lack training and management avoids communication all together.
I will share my personal experience to help others avoid this heartbreak and I will NEVER shop at Dillards again. DOONA on the other hand was amazing - 5+ stars. I shared my story with them and they reached out immediately to apologize for this nightmare. While not their issue, they understand compassion and I appreciated the quick response. I have since ordered the stroller directly from Doona (yes I had to pay double to get the right product, no thanks to Dillards) and am very pleased with the product. Live and learn… I hope this saves someone making the same mistake I did.

Therefore they would not let me return it even though the tags are on it and I didn’t wear it because I didn’t want that one and now I’m stuck with two one that doesn’t even fit me well.

In the last two years I have gone from loving Dillard's and it being one of my favorite stores to shop in to bowling to never step foot in another one again. Which really sucks cause there's some stuff in there I really like. I live in Colorado and have been to the Broomfield store the Park Meadows store the Cherry Creek store and the Aurora store and every single one of them is the same song and dance. On one occasion in aurora co I've been taken into a room and made to strip down to the bare minimum in front of a police officer trying to find sunglasses that I did not have. Multiple times in Broomfield security follows me every Department I go into, I voiced my frustration to management and even have asked the security guy why he keeps tripping on me and what it is I have in my hands that's making him follow me around the store. His response was that I'm touching things.... Isn't that called shopping????
Another time in Aurora Colorado after spending close to $500 I had my husband pay for the things that he had so that they would stop acting like we were trying to steal something and I went in to try on a dress and the security guy literally stood outside the dressing room door. When it was the wrong size I came out of the dressy room and three employees and the security guard were standing outside my dressing room door. So I asked for another size and tried that on and when I was paying for my things the lady at the cash register after my husband had already bought $500 worth of things was trying to force me to put my purse up on the counter so she can look inside of it.
I thought maybe it was just Colorado stores that were awful and treated customers like thieves, so when I was in Montana during Christmas break my husband and I went into the Dillard's in Billings Montana and was told that I couldn't cross the aisle to the other department without paying for the items I wanted to buy first in the department I was in. I explained that I didn't want to have to go and change in the dressing room multiple times especially when they were following me around the department. Anyways so I left with nothing and angry which is a consistent thing with Dillard's anymore. I'm over it. Your store is going to go under because you're obviously training your employees to do that to the customers!!!!

I purchased an online gift for a wedding shower. Made out my gift card, with a beautiful message of congratulations and a gift receipt was to be included. I intended to SEND my gift, thinking I would not be able to go... but my plans changed. Since I did not like the gift wrap, (birds with a blue ribbon) I decided to rewrap it with a more appropriate wrap for the occasion. To my SHOCK, there was NO message, and NO gift receipt!! I called the 800 number, and was informed that THEY HAVE GONE PAPERLESS, and would email or mail my gift receipt to me. THIS INFORMATION IS NOT ON THE WEBSITE, that I can recall. I was not refunded for my inconvenience.... because "they have gone paperless." HOWEVER, my gift recipient would have NEVER known who sent the gift, if I hadn't decided to look inside. So heads up!!

Dillards-Town Center, Aurora CO. I made a purchase two days ago using a $50.00 Dillard's gift card & $42.46 from my bank card. When I returned the cheaper item of $29.34, the cashier refused to credit my bank card and stated the employee who rang up the sell “should have informed me about some "tier purchase", and basically FORCED me to take this gift card for $29.34.

This Angie- Asst.

I am writing this review to caution potential customers about a recent experience that calls into question the fairness of Dillards' return policy. On December 17, 2023, I purchased a coat for $1005 as a special 60th birthday gift for my wife. At the time, I specifically inquired about their return policy and was assured that returns were accepted within 30 days of purchase.
However, our trust in this policy was shattered when a significant defect was discovered. After the first use, my wife noticed that the side of the coat was curling inward, a clear indicator of a tailoring flaw. Confident in the integrity of Dillards' return policy, and armed with photographic evidence of the defect, we attempted to return the coat on January 8, 2024.
To our disbelief and dismay, the assistant store manager, Mr. Phillip **, flatly refused our return. His justification? The coat had been worn. This condition was neither mentioned at the time of purchase nor is it a practical expectation. How can one assess the quality and fit of a garment without wearing it? This denial of service and lack of transparency regarding return conditions are not only disappointing but also reflect poorly on Dillards' commitment to customer satisfaction. The refusal to honor their own policy has left us feeling misled and unfairly treated. I urge potential customers to be wary of this store's return policy. The experience we had raises serious concerns about Dillards' adherence to fair business practices and their respect for customer rights. A store that does not stand by its products or policies is not one that deserves your trust or business.

After 30 years of being a loyal Dillards customer, I am through. I am sick and tired of every time I place an online order that I have to buy more than I wanted in order to get free shipping. Amazon is free. Walmart is free. Macy's is free. Even JCP is free. Dillards is a minimum order of $80 or get screwed with shipping charges. And another thing - the items that I frequently buy are never on sale. Everything except is on sale except for items that I repeat purchase.
I think you have the website programmed - oh if it's David again, and he's looking at that $40 pack of Suprima t-shirts - no discount because that fool will continue to come back year after year like he's always done. Well, not anymore. Never any follow up, never a thank you, never a break on high-priced Suprima t-shirts, underwear, and slacks. One last thing - for the first time in 30 years I haven't bought a thing from Dillards this Christmas. I sent all the business to Macy's.

I then went to purchase some perfume in the women’s department and was told by Carolyn that If I made a purchase over 100.00, I would receive another 25.00 coupon. I purchased la vie that was 124.00 but did not get the 25.00 off because Carolyn took the 25.00 off before ringing up the product, which made it 99.00 before taxes, told me I was $1 short of getting the 25.00.

I kept the product until it cleared my account and returned to the store on 11/11/23 to swipe it for the 3.4 oz of Tresor.
The department manager told me at checkout that I would lose the 25.00 coupon for the men’s cologne I had purchased and I would not receive another coupon for purchasing an item of higher value. So I asked for a refund and I lost out on the 25.00 coupon that I initially received. This is false advertising and Dillards owe me 25.00 for the men’s cologne. If a customer is spending over 300 in a store and there is decreased, it leaves a bad taste in Your mouth. It makes you not want to shop at that store anymore. I would like Dillards to honor me the 25.00 that they owe me. This is ridiculous because they are not hurting for 25.00, the promotion offer was snatched from me, they refuse to ring the second product correctly, I placed a call to the district manager Shannon ** who has yet returned my call and I am NOT a happy customer.

They have a 30 day return policy. I thought it was 60 days and I've been a long time Dillards customer. I was unwell so I overlooked the policy. Requested them to at least give me a store credit since those dresses just do not fit me. I admitted it was my mistake for overlooking the 30 day policy but I was traveling and unwell. Requested to make one time consideration for a long time customer. Not only they refused, but every customer service rep and the Manager I spoke to was very rude. I was being polite and nice but they responded extremely rudely. I have unsubscribed myself from all Dillards emails and I shall never buy from them again especially when there are other good businesses.

It had been a while since I had shopped at Dillards, but popped in on a recent sale. One item was regular price that I could no longer use and took it back 40 days from the date of purchase and that’s when I find out it’s a 30 day return policy.

Just want everyone to know that when they have their 65% off sale in store, the products are already old and defective. I have shoes I bought a couple of months ago at 65% off and the shoe is separating on the glue part. I bought an Aimee Kirstenberg purse and the handle came out from the purse already. This was just a purchase about a couple of months ago too. Either the quality is not good anymore or the items have been around in the store for a while and got old and just not selling. I'm not sure how long they hold on to their stuff before they mark them down. They are defective items. Very bad. I used to like Dillards. Just not good anymore.

After spending so much money at Dillards for many years, I'm sorry to say that the quality of their clothing is garbage. Even when something is on sale it's still pricey. I've thrown away TWO shirts purchased at Dillards in the last few weeks because they were so poorly made. If I'm going to have to throw away the purchase, I may as well order from Amazon. Some of these department stores are their own worst enemy in competition with Amazon. On top of the expensive clothing that ends up in the trash, my reviews for these items are not being posted by Dillards. I'm washing my hands of this store.

However, I was racially profiled on Saturday, July 1 by the staff who works the section of the store near the accessories, handbags. They were unprofessional, followed me around the store and engaged security. After I paid for my merchandised I told the woman who attended me at the register that it was very awkward and asked whether there was a problem with theft or other issue that warrants them to follow shoppers and she replied yes. And I told her I was uncomfortable and she told me she understands because it has happened to her at certain stores.
As I walked away I said it was unfortunate that they treat customers that way and she told me “well you shouldn’t steal then”. It was horrible. Never in my life have I ever been spoken to or accused in that manner. The staff needs better training. I felt extremely violated and I will never return to the store, despite how much I really appreciate the ladies l who attend to the woman’s clothing section.

I always receive tracking information fast and my products as well seem to always be delivered In a reasonable time frame.

Once I purchased the products I received a confirmation, but no tracking information for 8-9 days so I had to actually call the customer service to figure out what was going on. This led me to wait on hold with 86 other people in front of me that nearly took a hour or longer and once it got to my place in line the customer service representative (not Maria) didn’t even say anything and just hung up the phone.

So Dillard’s I know this is a hectic time for y’all, but I’m spending hundreds of dollars on your products weekly like other’s I’m sure and it not very hard to make sure you updating customers on their orders if you place holds on their account.
I don’t blame the employees, but I blame the company. You cannot cut 60 percent of your employees hours and still expect them to be able to keep up with all the orders during this time. It’s impossible and crazy to think that your customers are going to be happy when they have to fight tooth and nail to even receive there orders. Y’all really need to invest more into your employees during time, but if you don’t you are going to really lose a lot of your customers with how things are being done.
Once I finally received my order two weeks later or more, they actually sent me the wrong size. My skirt tag said zero, but the actually size with 2. So once again I had to call Dillard’s and this time I talked to Maria. She got everything situated (I think). We will see in a couple of days! She was super helpful and sweet and that’s why I wanted to make sure she was recognized. So now it’s two 1/2 weeks after I first originally ordered, and I’m having to wait for a shipping label to resend back the wrong size skirt before they will send my replacement. So let’s just say it’s probably going to be an entire month before I actually receive the product I ordered...
Also, there is another product I haven’t even received tracking information on in which I ordered a while back as well that Maria had to fix!! So long story short I would rate Dillard’s as like a 1 or 2 out of a 5 at the moment, but the people I spoke to in customer service would be a complete 5 star!! Your employees I specially spoke to were great, but as a company during this time I am not very happy with the service you are giving your customers! Shame on you!

I bought a suit for my wedding, they tailored it. It never fitted correctly, it was not wearable. The sales person didn't even talk to the manager, the excuse was that there was nothing to do since it is not returnable because it was altered.

On line, I purchased a purse at full price. 48 hours later the purse went on sale. I have not received the purse yet so I called customer service to receive the difference of refund in the full vs sale price of the purse. Dillard’s customer service stated that they could not help me and that Dillard’s does not honor a sale price if the item was purchased at full price, even if I haven’t received the item yet. I have never had such unreliable customer service from any store. At a time of this (covid19) you would think a department store would honor their customers more then what Dillard’s has shown. I’ll be returning the purse when it does arrive and purchasing it somewhere else.

I needed a dress for an event. Dillard’s happen to have all the dresses I was deciding on 3 of them so I purchased them. They were the wrong size and I found one I liked somewhere else anyway so within the 30 days I returned my purchase. I printed out their return label that they take $8.75 off of your refund for using and I selected to the USPS pick the box up from my house. The box was picked up but a week later when Dillard’s still had not received my return I looked into it. The package went from Massachusetts where I live to PA, sent out and back to PA then back to Massachusetts, back to PA, KY, then back to Massachusetts. I contacted the post office. They said, "We can’t help you because it was “tender to the return agent”. Well it was tender to the return agent twice so I’m not sure what that matters.
I contacted Dillard’s with this same explanation I wrote here, they responded by saying “you can track your return here...” and sent me a link to track my return. Does it not sound like I have been tracking my link? I think it’s pretty clear I have! So I have written them back 4 times since they sent me that saying I need more help then the obvious tracking link and no response from them!! There is about $500 in merchandise in that box, that is a lot of money to me and money I can’t lose!! But it looks as though I have and Dillard’s just doesn’t seem to care. $500 is nothing to a multimillion dollar chain department store. Oh and I did call, they said it would be better to email my question! My advice do not shop there especially online. They obviously don’t care about their customers!

I ordered over $800 worth of merchandise (clothing) and returned 4 of the 10 items (well within the 30 days) for a $350 credit to PayPal, which I'd used for the purchase. After not hearing from them for over 10 days after they received the return, I wrote them. After another 3 days, they wrote back and said they were "mailing a gift card" to me. I called to complain and they said they could not refund PayPal purchases when I made them, but can now (just a few days after they sent the gift card). They do not tell you when you use PayPal that you cannot return the products for PayPal credit--if they had, I would have just used a credit card.
I asked them to cancel the gift card and refund PayPal since they now have that ability, and they refused. The person I spoke to was also quite snippy. I asked to speak to a manager and she put me on hold so long I eventually had to hang up. Did they ever lose what would have become a lifelong customer! I was pleased with their service and merchandise until then.

I was explicitly told that I could return the original dress as long as the tags were still attached and I had the receipt. I ended up purchasing the correct size, but when I went to return the original dress, they told me it was over 30 days.

Upon checkout they couldn’t ring me up because I didn’t have a PIN number??? I had my electronic bar code and everything. I called customer service who asked me to print my gift card. I didn’t bring a printer in store. I was sent to customer service for help and that’s where everything fell apart. A manager was called to help and all she kept saying was for me to call customer service. I asked for the manager because I had already done that. She insisted I call customer service again. The customer service rep tried helping again but we ran into a wall again.
I asked for the manager yet again. I waited patiently and finally she showed. Her name was Ashlin **. She walked up rolling her eyes in disgust when she saw us to which I just let go. Finally I figure it out so we were heading back to check out. At the checkout, there were 2 pairs of pants I believed were on sale. We walked to the rack together and she let me know it wasn’t all Roundtree and Yorke pants that were on sale, just the one rack. No problem, it wasn’t a big deal. As we walk back to checkout we noticed my 6 year old daughter was hiding under a table. She commented “you can’t even leave them alone for 2 minutes”. At that point I felt I was trying way too hard to shop somewhere I wasn’t welcome.

Everything that is in there is exactly how It is when I purchased it. Calmly I look while Donyae looks again.
She takes stuffing paper out top of bag, takes out box, look in bag, then opens box, put the top down, look under charm red bag, as she is doing so I say, "Are you guys referring to this yellow tag right here in lid of box."

Can never explain enough the disappointment shopping at this store. After spending about $800.00 on various items in the ladies department and on the way out noticed a pair of slacks on a mannequin. Went back to the sales clerk and was charged for the slacks. Upon the transaction I was told the slacks were not in that store and had to be shipped to my address, which is my husband's in an industrial location used for warehousing, hardly anyone there. So within a few minutes the clerk said she would cancel the sale. Why not tell me the slacks were not in the store before charging my card? Bottom line; during all the purchases we made that day, the clerk seemed confused and we had to ensure she understood English.
We have never received the $74.00 credit she said we would as the sale was to be canceled. Called the store on more than one occasion, talked with someone in the first call who assured me we would receive the credit, have not. Waited another week, called again. Talked with Darel. He tells me I should go back to the store in person to ask for credit with the receipts. The Galleria is across the street and have been shopping in Neiman and other stores for years.

It seems from what I am reading in these reviews that Dillards is blatantly ignoring their store policy with returns and I would immediately contact corporate. It is illegal for them to keep money owed to you and a gift receipt tells the exact amount paid so yes that acts as an original receipt and you absolutely get back whatever the amount paid was on that gift receipt. I strongly feel corporate needs to be involved and the BBB and not that any wants to take them to court, maybe you should too stop their unfair and possibly illegal acts as keeping money after they have accepted your merchandise back. Essentially that's stealing...

Returned gifts received following all steps including instructions on where to send gift card, all tags and gift receipts were provided. Never received anything from them. When we followed up we were informed they reimbursed the original purchase and there is just nothing they can do and we would have to call the person who gave us the gift originally, which is not an option. Still fuming and very angry about how this was handled. We did everything as instructed and lost $300 in merchandise.

I purchased a dress online for 310.00. I shipped it back because although pretty, the dress did not look good against my own skin tone. I shipped it back and have been told it’s lost in the warehouse. It’s been 6 weeks and no refund. No effort is taking place to find the dress or refund my purchase.

Stopped at the Dillard's at Summit Mall on November 9 and proceeded to pick up some earrings and hosiery. Went to the jewelry register where a clerk was on the phone with a customer (and not very friendly to the person on the phone, so that should have been my first warning). The clerk saw me, made eye contact with me, but after she hung up the phone she walked away without a word. No acknowledgment, no "I'll be right back", nothing. I couldn't believe how rude she was. No wonder mall stores are closing all over the country. Why should I put up with some nasty girl when I can shop online? I will never shop at Dillard's again.

Somehow the missing dress was located days later and I received an email indicating they had credited my charge card. Never received a follow up call as I had requested.
I did receive the other two dresses back and guess what!? I found 2 hairs embedded in the lace of one of the dresses and no hair at all on the other one. I returned both dresses to the Dillard’s in Liberty Center and Phyllis and Candace, the ASM, were very helpful in resolving the matter. I should have just taken the return there in the first place. Lesson learned.
Original Review: Nov. 8, 2018
I wish I would have found these reviews before purchasing from Dillard’s. I bought 3 dresses and a pair of shoes online. The order totaled over $800. I ordered these dresses to possibly wear to my daughter’s upcoming wedding. They were all long, formal dresses and the mother of the groom was wearing a cocktail dress so I decided to return all of them and look for a shorter dress. Due to the closest Dillard’s being over an hour from my home, and wanting to stay within the 30 day return policy, I used the return label and shipped the entire order back. The tracking showed up on Dillard’s website and I was able to see when it was received by the warehouse. I then received an email that I had been issued a credit for one item, the shoes of $100-ish dollars.
I called customer service as soon as I got home from work and inquired as to when I would be refunded for the dresses. The representative proceeds to tell me that the ‘2’ dresses were returned to me because they were covered in animal hair. What?? These dresses were in perfect condition with the tags still attached. I tried them on one time and put them back in the box they were shipped in. Also, 2 dresses!? I sent back a total of ‘3’ dresses.
I asked to speak to a supervisor and get someone named Monica. I ask her to hold on for just a moment so I can check the order and see for sure how many dresses were on the order. She then hangs up on me! I call back and get her on the line again, and basically there is nothing they can do. I asked her how a dress just disappears?? And she asked, ‘what dress’? So, I have no idea when the 2 dresses will arrive back to me. It’s already past the 30 days of when I ordered them, so chances are I won’t be able to return them to the store. And what about the third dress?? I’m just out a few hundred dollars?
I’m a professional woman who would never return items covered in dog hairs. I get embarrassed if I’m returning an item and a stray hair is on it. I believe this is just their way of making sure I will be outside of the 30 day window and not be able to make the return. This type of customer service is the reason so many people are shopping with Amazon. I had no problems at all with returning some items I had ordered from them. I have no idea of what my recourse is. Thankfully I used my MasterCard, so maybe I have some protection? I’m not sure.

I have been stalking the starting out mint satin trim baby blanket to get for my son as his special blanket. The blanket had been out of stock for a while so I signed up to get an email notification when back in stock and I would not have to pay for shipping since the blanket was not in stock when I wanted to purchase. Some time went by and I never received the email from Dillard's but I noticed it was back in stock on the site.
When I called to let them know I was never notified and still wanted to purchase and wanted to get the free shipping they would not honor the order with free shipping because they couldn't prove that I ever entered my email to be notified. They also said that if I entered my email incorrect that would be my fault and nothing they can do. I'm very frustrated because as mentioned I have been stalking this one blanket and the fact that they would not just honor the free shipping was crazy to me. So still no special blanket for my son!

I was on the phone for half an hour just to get the answer "I don't have time." I purchased a dress at one city's store (they only had one size and since I really loved the dress I just decided to get it). After getting home, I thought that maybe a neighboring city's store might have it, so I called them. I got their customer service to transferred me to the Michael Kors department. After waiting a couple minutes, the lady came back on the phone and said that she accidentally send me to the wrong department and then proceeded to send me to the dress department who did not answer. She then gave me the number of the overhead Dillard's customer service where a man who seemed to have no patience at all picked up and then sent me to a Dillard's in the wrong city.
I then recalled the original store who then transferred me to the dress department where a lady picked up and asked what I wanted. I politely asked if she could check to see if they had the dress. She just said, "I have no time." She didn't see if there was someone around to help or ask for a number to call back. That was it. No help and no answer after all that time. I doubt I will ever shop at Dillard's again just because of the multiple rude employees.

I never shop at Dillard’s and the one time I did, I regretted it. After my boyfriend and I had selected the items we were going to purchase, we glanced around to the nearest register and saw some customers finishing up their transaction with the employee in the women’s shoes department, so we went to stand behind them with our merchandise. As soon as the employee was done ringing them up, without any acknowledgment to us, he disappeared into the stockroom. We stood there for a few minutes and he finally came back out with a box of shoes.
I said something along the lines of, “Hi, can you help us?” To which he responded, “Are you purchasing shoes, oh you have clothes, I cannot ring up clothes.” I said, “That’s fine but you could have told us that instead of rudely ignoring us.” To which he responded, “I’m helping another customer.” To which I again responded, “You could have communicated that to us instead of just rudely walking away.” To which his response was, “I’m not the only one working in the store.” I could not believe the unprofessionalism and unwillingness to help. I never shopped here so they won’t be missing my money but they also missed an opportunity to acquire two new customers. I can’t wait until they go bankrupt. I’ll continue shopping online from the comforts of my home and not have to deal with any ** employees.

This has been one of the most unpleasant shopping experiences ever. I bought some swimsuits for a trip to Miami and then one of them did not fit the same as when I tried it on at the store and I couldn’t wear it. When I finally found time to make it to the store to return the $140 swimsuit that I can’t even wear after I was back in town and not working, the salesperson tells me it’s “outside of the 30 day return policy” and there wasn’t anything she could do. I asked if I was just stuck with this item that I don’t want and can’t wear and she said, “Yep.” Showing some compassion and being on the customer’s side goes a long way.
A lot happens in 30 days and maybe some people don’t have time to go to the mall. The fact that they don’t even offer store credit so that a customer could be satisfied with items purchased from their store is mind blowing. To make matters worse, I opened and purchased this on a Dillards credit card... The money would be going back into spending at their store anyway. Not anymore. Worst customer service ever. God awful return policy.

I do know that if you pay with a credit card that it should go back on the credit card. But paying with a debit card is just like paying cash.

I noticed that Dillard's had a few Louis Vuitton, Prada, and Gucci handbags for sale in a glass locked case on display. I asked a saleslady how often do they receive new and or different bags. She said that they have a bunch of them but she would have to take me to view them because they are locked up in a room on the 3rd floor next door to the customer service desk/business office. Being it was my birthday and the previous year we drove to the Galleria to purchase a Louis Vuitton, this might save us a trip if I find a purse I like right here at Dillard's. My friend and I agreed to follow the saleslady to the top floor to check out LV purses they had in stock. We had to wait for a manager to open up the locked room.
When the manager finally showed up and unlocked the room, to my surprise the entire room was devoted and full of high end designer purses, wallets, and bags. The room contained items from Chanel, Prada, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton. The price tags varied and I remember seeing some that were over $2000. I found a Louis Vuitton that I liked and that was priced under $1000, with tax it totaled close to 1075. The payment was made using $600 in cash and the remainder balance on a debit card. The sales lady put the LV handbag in a brown plastic Dillard's bag with the receipt and handed it to me. I asked if she had a LV bag and she said no they don't have bags for them. Then she said wait a minute and stepped back into the room and came back out with a dust bag and put my new purse in the dust bag and back into the Dillard's plastic bag. The dust-bag she gave me looks nothing like the real LV dust bags I had.
Also it looks just like the dust-bag that a LV bag my ex-husband purchased from eBay years ago thinking he bought an authentic item. Come to find out it was not authentic. I started examining the new LV from Dillard's and noticed several peculiar characteristics of being an imposter. I began to do research on the internet and lo and behold the peculiar characteristics are identifiers on how to spot a fake LV. In order to be certain I wanted to take it to the LV boutique at the Galleria Mall in Houston. I took it there and was told that they are not allowed to authenticate for legal reasons but off the record the gentleman said that the item I showed him was not one of LV's products. A couple days later I sent Dillard's Corporate an e-mail demanding a refund or I was going to the media. Corporate forwarded the email to David ** who persistently began to e-mail and call me everyday until I answered the phone.
He wanted to know when I was coming in so they could render the situation. He also inquired as to why I believe the LV handbag was not authentic. I was unable to meet with Mr. ** until today. I bought the purse along with the miscellaneous authenticity cards that were in the inside pocket of the purse. One of the cards guaranteed authenticity from What Comes Around Goes Around and that the item is an authentic Louis Vuitton Manhattan PM and that it is a vintage/used item. I took with me documents I found through research to show Mr. ** the validity of the purse not being real. I also printed out an article showing him that Chanel is pursuing a lawsuit against What Comes Around Goes Around for this exact reason. He went inside a room with two other ladies and discussed who knows what for quite a while.
He finally came out not saying a word to me nor acknowledge me at all and just asked for my driver's license. He scanned the proof of purchase tag and retrieved a gift card and scanned a store credit of $1000 and handed me the card. I said, "Are you not going to give me my money back." He asked how the transaction was paid for and then said there was no way of locating that transaction. I told him it was rang up on the station right outside of the door behind us. He said that didn't matter and that he normally would not even be doing this. I asked him if they were going to continue to do business with What Comes Around Goes Around and he finally spoke and said they most certainly are because this is the first problem they have encountered and does not believe that the bag is counterfeit.
I also asked him why his staff isn't adequately trained to identify merchandise that are imposters. He had no answer for that. The differences between the authentic LV purse I was carrying and the fake LV I was returning are obvious differences and are clearly seen when comparing the two with each other. I have read posts by other customers who have experienced issues with Dillard's selling replica high-end designer bags. Dillard's is deliberately deceiving customers by selling counterfeit handbags as the real deal for high-end designer prices. I have done enough research that I can pinpoint the website from China that What Comes Around Goes Around is purchasing these "used vintage" handbags from.
If Dillard's was selling authentic LV, Prada, Gucci, and Chanel items then why are they locked up in a room on the 3rd floor and only showcase them to the public a few hours on Saturday for their so called Trunk Show? What Comes Around Goes Around needs to be held accountable for selling counterfeit products and Dillard's should be held accountable for knowingly selling counterfeit items at prices as high as you would pay for an authentic brand new item from an actual boutique. Dillard's is straight up robbing their customers and then throwing a temper tantrum attitude when the customer catches their wrongdoing and calls the organization out on the deceptive practices that are occurring in their everyday operations. I have notified Louis Vuitton Corporate and they are filing a report as well as spoke with a local news station about this story.
The whole point of the purchase to begin with was to get a LV for my birthday, not a fake one. I was deceived by Dillard's and they won't even return the funds that were used to purchase a fake item that was sold through deceptive practices. I could have used to funds to go the LV Boutique to put towards an authentic handbag. What am I going to use this store credit for? A purse? No way! I will never buy any purse from Dillard's because who knows if any of the handbags they carry are really genuine and authentic. Their management has proven to be deceitful, distasteful, and rude which compliments the fake product that is tricking the customers into spending large amounts of money on fake merchandise. Big profits are being made through deceptive practices and it's not right!

St. Louis MO - Dillards in Galleria Mall. I should start by saying I used to live in Illinois and I happily shopped at my Dillards store in Illinois for over 20 years. After moving closer to St. Louis, I shopped at the Chesterfield store. The employees at that store were also excellent - especially a young brunette woman named Sarah. Now that the Chesterfield store is closed, I shop at the St. Louis Galleria Dillards. It is always a terrible experience. I shop in the ladies section on the second floor, so this review is only for the employees that work on the second floor. To begin, NO ONE WORKS IN THE HIGH END LADIES SECTION on the second floor. I can rarely find anyone to help me or ring me up. There have been about 10 times where I had something I wanted to purchase but had to leave without it because there is no one to ring me up. When I do see an employee, they ignore the very few customers that still shop there.
I might have a stack of clothes to try on but no one offers to start me a dressing room. I might need another size but no one comes to check on me in the dressing room. Just last week the employee in my section hid in the dressing room with her friend who was trying on clothes and talking about boys and wouldn’t even come out to ring me up. This is supposed to be a ‘high end’ store, but it’s nothing of the like. After leaving Dillards empty handed, I went to Macy's and they had hundreds of customers and numerous employees greeting me and asking me if I needed help. I have always preferred Dillards' clothing over Macy's, but there is no comparison in customer service anymore. Macy's is doing a great job and the Dillards Galleria is doing a terrible job. I love Dillards and I would really like things to be improved at the Dillards Galleria.

I will resort to only my most recent horrible experience with Dillards, but know there has definitely been more than one. I tried to purchase a pair of boots that had been marked down from $170 to $120 both online and in store. Please note, however, store sale price was not marked on the floor model and after tracking down a sale associate he had to ask a manager to price match, only to discover all the boxes in the back reflected the sale price after all. They didn't have my size in the store, so I asked if they could order and ship to me. He said sure, rang up and tried to charge me full price.
Immediately I questioned why he didn't ring up the sale price and he said he couldn't. So, I asked for a manager because obviously she needed to do an override on the price as all items were clearly marked in store and online at $120, not $170. He walked off and came back and said my manager said there is nothing she can do. Insane. I asked to speak to the manager in person. She came over and said there is nothing I can do and if want these shoes you have to go home and purchase them yourself. Her system wouldn't allow her to adjust the price despite everything clearly being marked otherwise. She reiterated there was nothing she could do and said she hopes they are in stock by the time I order.
I asked to speak to the highest level manager of that store and the same applies. If I want the shoes at sale price as marked I had to go home and order them myself. When I left the store I stated to the upper level manager I was about fed up with Dillards' horrible customer service and archaic management and policies and I would not be back. Her response was, "Now you know why I don't shop here either." How about that for customer service and loyalty?!

On 12/27/17 (my Birthday) my husband & I went shopping for a new robe for my present. I found a lovely one, some pj's & a lingerie bag at the Newport News store at Patrick Henry Mall in VA. Upon home I tried on the robe & pj's. The pj's top was too tight. Decided to return after holidays. Just happened we decided to go back to Patrick Henry (we live in Portsmouth- 25 miles away) for other shopping- so we returned the pj's today 12/31/17. I really never looked at the receipt and the original sales associate gave me no reason to do so. Upon arrival we returned the pj's- the Associate stated there were no tags on the garment and they could not be returned without tags. I had to show her the tags. Then she said they were "clearance" and could not be returned after 3 days (28, 29, 30- oh geez today was the 4th day!). I saw no signage nor did the salesperson tell me about the 3 day policy.
A dept. mgr was called- and she repeated the same, I asked for a store credit which she said she would do- she handed my husband a "red store credit card" with a receipt folded around it. Our return for the sleepwear was supposed to be (as per our orig receipt) $23.30 + tax. When my husband went to the men's dept to purchase some socks- the credit only showed $6!!! So we went customer service. Evidently the original sales person applied the wrong yellow return sticker to my garment! Faye, in Customer Service understood the error, but needed a Mgr to override the 3 day return policy.
After waiting over 30 minutes the dept mgr (who gave us the incorrect $$ store credit card)- showed up then after numerous attempts was cluless how to correct the errors.

So, taking a break from family time and baking Christmas cookies, I braved the mall traffic and went to Dillard's to order the wallet to get the 30% off & free shipping. The sales associate was polite, but was having problems keying in the 30% discount. So, she called the manager. The manager told her to tell me that the sale ended "yesterday" and that she could not give me the discount.
The sales associate felt bad and asked me if I wanted to talk to the manager and pointed in the direction that she was. I saw the manager sneaking taking down the posted 30% off sale signs! I called her out on it. I was met with fierce resistance. They finally called the head guy down and he reluctantly agreed to give me the discount (but as a price adjustment when I returned the defective wallet). It was like pulling teeth over about $40. Unbelievable. Macy's and Nordstrom's would never had done that. Especially if they had told me the sale was still on, to come down to the store, and especially because it was Christmas Eve. It left a sour taste in my mouth and I will not shop there anymore. I had heard Dillard's was not accommodating to its customers and did not try to instill customer goodwill. I experienced that first hand.

I am a long time shopper of Dillards and a ** Women. On Sunday, December 24, 2017 I went into Dillards Department Store in the Domain Shopping Center in Austin, TX to buy some shoes. I had picked out 3 different style Sperry shoes to try on and was planning to purchase them. I stood with the shoes in my hand waiting for an employee to assist me. The store was not busy at all, in fact there was only around 3 other customers in the shoe area where I was. While standing there, one female ** employee walked past me as I stood there and walked up to two other female ** customers to help them. Then a couple of different employees appeared in the area, walked past me as well ignored me as if I was a mannequin. Finally I sat down and decided to just wait to see when/who would finally recognize me sitting there with my selection of shoes to try on.
After 10 minutes or so, I decided to record what was happening to report it to the store Manager, so I did. I missed about 3 minutes of recording due to my phone didn't record. But, I did get just enough to show exactly how the employees in the shoe department ignored me, walked past me, and one lady even asked another ** customer behind me for help, then walked past me and went about her business. One employee looked me dead in the eye. The video show 5 employees gathered around the register laughing and talking while I sat there looking stupid. Finally I got up and walked over to them and I told them, I sat there for over 10 minutes and neither of you came over to ask me for help.
I took my video upstairs to the store Manager. I didn't tell her what happen when she asked, I told her to watch the video and see what happened. I'm sure the store camera in the shoe department will clearly show the entire time I spent being ignored while they stood around laughing and talking like I meant nothing. I had bought 2 outfits for Christmas gifts the day before, I returned both and said I will never shop Dillards again, took my money and headed to Macy's... I will be glad to submit my video, if necessary.

Dillards has the worst Customer Service among all the department stores! Do not shop at Dillards... Shop at Nordstrom instead where they treat their customers respectfully and pleasantly. I purchased a leather skirt from Dillards last week. While I had it on & I was pulling down this skirt, it ripped! I have not even left my house. I did wear the skirt around my house as I was getting ready. So, the following day, I ended up taking it back to the Summerlin, Las Vegas store and complained about an expensive skirt that ripped the moment I put it on. The saleslady in the Antonio Melani section of the ladies' clothes & her department manager were very unaccommodating and treated me badly. If this experience happened at Nordstrom, they will take care of you and do what they can to make a customer happy. Not so at Dillards!!! These people need to learn some real customer service.
You would think that Dillards would hold their suppliers accountable and sell quality products considering the price they charge. I just don't think it is right. I am a very busy executive but took the time to go back to the store to bring up this issue. However, since they treated me badly, I have decided to cut my Dillards card and never shop at Dillards EVER again! I have been their customer for decades. But I will be taking my business to Nordstrom from now on!!! Shame on you Dillards! I hope your stores close & you go out of business as people are shopping online where the return policy is more customer friendly.

I received a congratulations from Dillard's on December 1, 2018 and the same time realized that I had an overdue balance of $4.14 so I immediately paid it. Also on that same day after I made the payment good they closed my account for having violating their delinquency agreement or policy. Then on December the 7th I received a letter from the cardholder of Dillard's account and found a letter telling me that my account had been closed and in order to re-open my account I would have to go into the store and reapply for credit.
Here is my problem after calling in and speaking with several employees including the supervisor who finds it comforting to tell me at least we are giving you an option to reapply. Not as I thought to be the basis for continuing to develop customer loyalty. I understand the importance of having a customer to pay their accounts on time and my reasoning is I hope for so form of understanding to an error that such a rigid policy that shows no means of flexibility. I am only writing to to say pay your credit bills on time with Dillard's or they will surely close you out without warning.

DON'T EVER SHOP ONLINE FROM DILLARD'S (unless of course you don't want to see your money back). THEY STOLE $80 FROM ME AND NEVER GAVE BACK. I had the worst customer service experience at Dillard's. I am a regular customer at Dillard's stores and for the first time I dared purchase something online from them, as they were having a good sale. I bought a pair of shoes from a brand I have before and a size that I know it fits me from that particular brand. Well, of course the shoes did not fit me at all, cannot even get them halfway on. They seem to be 2 sizes smaller. I am not surprised now that they were on sale...
Anyway when I called to have them replaced they said they don't have larger sizes and I wanted to return them but because of the rules of that particular sale they had going on they said I cannot do that. So I told them they are two sizes smaller or there is something wrong with those shoes. I understand the rules of a sale but then you, as a product provider also have to send me the product I paid for, not something else. So I had to hold of my bargain, but Dillard's didn't. And the person wasn't helpful at all, didn't even offer a discount since I was stuck with them, nor was being nice over the phone.
I am sure that they don't care, that's why that guy was acting like that on the phone. The corporate mentality was screaming through the phone, and the careless for the customers they live and mooch off. They basically stole my $80 and never gave back, nor willing to compensate in any way. They lost one good customer but I am sure they couldn't care less about that either.

I am a new customer to ordering at Dillards online. However, I will never order online with this firm again. I ordered three articles of clothing of which I had to return two due to needing a smaller size. This firm does not have shipping returns labels for you to send back their clothing. Therefore, I had to send back the clothing at cost. And upon receipt of the merchandise I am now being informed that I must pay for the exchanged items to be shipped to me. Just to ensure everyone reading this message understands I have paid 50% in shipping cost to the cost of the items exchanged and could not return on of the two items due to no returns are permitted, only a size exchange is permitted.
When I asked why I could not return one of the two items which clearly I did not like upon receiving it did not look like the picture online, the customer service person reported they want to get rid of the inventory in stock. What a fortunate insult for me to have a dress that I do not really want but must keep and now pay to have this dress shipped to me. I have transitioned to purchasing merchandise online for the past three years and many companies have shipping/returns policies that far surpass this company's policies and they're not a big box retailers. I will never order online from you. Please note that I spend at least $1,000 a month on online orders and your firm will never see any of the proceeds from my transactions.

My wife purchased a Louis Vuitton handbag at the Woodlands, Texas Dillard's store. She has shopped here for many years. She speaks and understands limited English as she is a resident in South America and has a vacation home in The Woodlands. When she got home her daughter noticed that the handbag was clearly defective, i.e. it would not stand by itself, and if you put anything into it it would topple over. I told her she should return it and I accompanied her to the store to help her as I speak fluent English. Much to my surprise the salesperson told me that there was no returns and pointed to a sign in the store which said VINTAGE HANDBAGS ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
My wife of course not speaking the language had not seen much less understood the sign and thought she was purchasing a new handbag. Called the store manager who gave us the same answer and further advised that this was a preowned and used handbag, which only made matters worse. We repeatedly told her that the saleslady had not even attempted to make my wife understand the fact that this was a used handbag, in a program which we were told just started three months ago. Have looked up the definition of VINTAGE and the word pertains to wine age and even the dictionary says the word has been abused in other contexts. Finally I got fed up and decided to leave and my wife handed over the bag to the clerk and told her to keep it, she did not want it.
We started walking out of the store and the saleslady practically followed me halfway to the door and asked me courteously to please hang on to the bag and come back the next day to speak to Mr. Tai ** store manager, who had the authority to make a decision. Went back the next day to customer service and asked for the gentleman and he was paged and called in and was told I was there and wanted to see him. He asked the lady in customer service to ask me what it was about and I went through the long process of explaining the whole situation to her. She briefly advised the store manager and after some two or three minutes of conversation with her she hung up and simply told me again the same story.
I asked if at least could pick out a different handbag or get store credit but everything I asked came back as a flat NO. I am frustrated that this gentleman did not even have the decency to show himself and explain personally. My wife and I have been good customers of Dillard's for 15+ years, you can understand my frustration... By the way VINTAGE definitely does not mean or imply DEFECTIVE.

I love shopping at Dillard's and have always enjoyed their quality merchandise. However, I am very dissatisfied with the way they handled a canceled transaction. They ran my card to pay for some items I purchased and the transaction supposedly didn't go through because they said the ZIP code was not correct. So they ran it through again and it worked the 2nd time. However, the first transaction that they canceled is still pending on my account and they have not released the funds as of yet.
This is not the first time this has happened, the last time they held my funds for about 7 business days before the pending charges were finally released. So I called their Customer Service Department to see if they could release the hold and was told it normally takes 3-5 business days, and that there was nothing they could do about it. The manager at the store location told me the same thing. I told them I was not returning any merchandise, which does sometimes take a few days to be credited back to a card. My situation was that the transaction supposedly didn't even go through and was declined because of the ZIP code, but yet the $$ is still pending as if it were a valid charge. So now I have to wait until they decide to release the hold on my $$. I know I have the option of paying cash, or with a credit card, but I should be able to use my debit card if that is my preferred method of payment. As much as I enjoy shopping at Dillard's I'm not sure I want to continue to do so.

Bought a MK Hamilton Satchel online and was thinking I got a good deal on it. The website at the time advertised an extra discount of up to 40% on already discounted items. This item was in the list and if I remember it correctly, on the second page of the list was where this was. I hurried and purchased it because I thought it's a really good deal and didn't want it to run out of stock! Now looking back into my credit card statement, I just realized that I didn't get the extra 40% off discount. I emailed customer service about it and she just told me that there's nothing they can do about it.
Now, today, (01/13/17), I called them and explained what happened and the reps were all VERY RUDE and was raising their voices on me, EVEN the supervisor! Saying that there's nothing they can do about it. And told me that I can just return the item if I didn't want it. Of course I want it! I just needed them to honor the sale advertised on the website! Now I wish I took a screenshot of it! Now when I asked her what I need to do to return it and if I get a full refund including the shipping, she told me they don't refund the shipping! I told her I would really like to get it back because it was false advertisement on their part that got me to making the purchase and getting me in this trouble I'm in now. And then few moments later after putting me on hold so many times, she came back and told me that they'll refund the shipping also but that I'd still be responsible for shipping the item back.
I was just shaking my head in disbelief that this company and these people I spoke with are so VERY incompetent and VERY rude! I even told her a lot of other online stores have free shipping even if you buy only $25 worth of items and free returns! That's not it, after our conversation, they emailed with the mailing address I asked for and said "please return the boots to the warehouse". This is after I spoke with them for 33 minutes! Again, shaking my head! This isn't the only problem I have. I went to the store on the 1st of this month to find a good deal since they're having a sale. I bought these shoes that was supposed to be discounted and that was supposed to have another 40% off discount after it. When I got home, I realized I didn't even get the discounted price on it that was supposed to have been only $53.99. They charged me full price on it!
This, to me isn't as big of a problem because I can just go to the store and not have to pay for the shipping. But with everything Dillard's has put me through with my shopping experience, I don't know if I'll ever buy from them again even if I have a credit card from them. The shoes was partly my fault for not checking the receipt firsthand. But it was very packed that day and the sale was what everybody was there for! People stood in line for hours before they opened!

I recently visited Dillards in Slidell LA Fremaux - to be precise on 11/26/16 around 4 pm. I love to find a good sale any day regardless of the not so great service at this specific store. I stopped by the ladies footwear area, as usual you can feel the "staring" as if they are trying to guess out, by your appearance, whether I will be spending $$$ or not, and well, I had just been to the gym so my sloppy gym look probably didn't impress them much, not a "welcome to Dillards" sound at all although there were at least 6 associates roaming around the floor, only one very sweet (must be new) associate approached me.
BUT THE WORST WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN: To MY surprise one associate very disrespectful reached out from behind me and pulled on my PURSE which was hanging on my shoulder. I felt the pull! I was in shock to say the least! When she abruptly says (while pulling my purse) "That's my purse! You got my purse!" Thankfully I am a very mild mannered lady, and I softly pulled away simply said "what are you doing?" Another person would've probably reacted much worst to think someone might want to pick it or else.
My question is why on earth would the associate invade my personal space and dare to touch my belongings? I felt violated, exposed, harassed, embarrassed and very uncomfortable, she asked me "where did you get it!? That is my purse", I beat myself up for not replying: Did you buy it or pay for it?! Well it's NOT yours! Show some manners! But I didn't, and perhaps it was best not to lower myself to her level. Yet I spoke with an attorney friend of mine and she suggested I leave a review, hopefully this behavior will never repeat with any customer. Just beware of disrespectful associates - lady shoes area only - men's clothing shoes and beauty products associates have been very courteous.

I ordered a pair of shoes on Dillard's website on Friday. This morning (Monday) I received an email that my order had been cancelled because it's Dillard's policy to only accept credit cards issued in the US. I often shop international and I always read company policies before placing any orders. According to their policy on their website they accept Visa credit cards which is what mine is. NOWHERE do they say anything about not accepting international credit cards. Instead there's a whole section on international orders and shipping so it really didn't make sense to me.
When I call the customer care line they can't give me clarity on this situation. If it's their policy not to accept foreign credit cards then surely it should say so at checkout or the order should at least bounce. They took my money, $272.37 to be precise. When I ask when the money will be back in my card they say I must go to my bank and find out. Is it my bank's fault or their lousy system? I am extremely disappointed and angry!

About two weeks ago, I was shopping in my favorite section of what once was my favorite department store. I found a sweater that I adored, but did not love the price tag. I asked the employee of that department if there were any upcoming sales. The lady informed me there would not be any sales until November. To my disappointment, I went ahead and paid full price for a $100 sweater. Not even two weeks later the whole section went 40% off within the beginning of October (today to be exact).
My first inclination was to get my receipt and unworn sweater (tags still attached) and try to get a price adjustment. I was informed they are unable to do so per policy. This is understandable. However, when I asked if I could refund the sweater and then repurchase since I had been mislead by a previous employee, I was told this is still a price adjustment and they would then remove the item from the floor so that I could not repurchase. I couldn't even go to the rack and buy another one. I was treated in such a poor manner and felt convicted as a criminal for even asking.
On top of it all, I keep the sweater and decided to check out the sale rack and was watched by this employee for much of my visit. I even heard her gossiping about what had just happened with another employee. Tomorrow I will return the sweater and order from another company online.

She picked up the receipt and said as RUDE as possible that it states it on the back, like anyone goes home & reads the back of their receipts. Just their BOGUS reason to not return an item which had a receipt. They act as if because you don't have a tag you stole it. Never ever had this issue with any retail store and never will again will NEVER shop there again. Poor customer services at its finest. No wonder they are closing stores...

I ordered a dress from Dillards online that I was supposed to wear on a friend's wedding. Dillards sent me an order and shipping confirmation. They provided a tracking number. However I found out 10 days later that the order was never shipped, because the item was not in stock. No one has ever notified me. They had no clue this happened and when I contacted them, they said "sorry, we will give you your money back". How can you run a business not knowing what's going on in your own warehouse and giving fake tracking numbers so customers that actually rely on you. Now I have no dress to wear to the wedding and I could have ordered something else if I wasn't lied to.

I bought a top and skirt in the dress department. The sales lady told me if I opened a new credit card with Dillard's I would get and additional 30% off the first purchase. Because I was spending about $175.00, I said sure. On my way home I realized there was no discount on the ticket. I called customer and they told to bring it in and they'd fix it. I went back and was told they would not discount the purchase because the merchandise I bought was not on sale. I was never told anything like this when I bought and got the new card.
After talking to 2 different store managers, they told me I should have seen the signs about the policy. Doesn't matter that their employee told me I would get the discount if I opened a credit card or that I called and they told me to come back. I really don't understand their company policy. I am 73 and I have never run into anything like this with any store. When Dillards was Joske's this would never have happened. After reading all the reviews on this site, I can see that this is common practice with Dillards. I mostly shop online with them, but I think this is my very last purchase with them ever!!! Macy's has never treated me like this. They are always glad to give discounts even when you don't have a coupon. I certainly didn't need another credit card. I guess I can't blame the managers for the policy, they probably don't have any other option if they want to keep their jobs. Shame on the Dillards corporate attitude.

On July 28, 2016 my 16-year-old granddaughter and I went school shopping at Dillard's in Monroe Louisiana. Upon entering the store I quickly noticed we were being followed around by an Asian male. Every department we entered, he came and stood directly in front of us watching our every move. He followed us until we made our purchases. Were it not for my very naive granddaughter I would not have spent a dime in that store! This is not the first time this has happened. And yes, we are ** who work hard and give back to our community. I would rather spend my hard earned dollars on Amazon!

Dillards Store, Northpark Mall, Dallas Texas - I have a nephew who was racially profiled and escorted out of the Dillards store here at this mall. He and some friends were there, he was trying on clothes and the security guard asked him if he was stealing. No, he was not stealing, he was trying on clothes. The store then called the police and was banned from this mall. All ** people do not steal, just like all ** people don't. I have called the store manager and Shannon and she has yet to call me back. I call the home office of Dillards and no one has returned my call. This type of behavior will not be tolerated by anyone. Civil rights were violated and I intend to press charges against this mall and store!

Dillard's, what a scam. This store lets you buy something and does not tell you about the 30 day return policy? 30 day return policy! What? This is so far from the norm at other Department stores that I feel like they are really trying to trick you and are being very dishonest. I know I will not shop there anymore because of this and I will tell everyone I know to do the same. They should put on the front of the receipt with a stamp in RED letters, "30 DAYS TO RETURN"! I bought a pair of Coach heels for a wedding and I could not wear them, the right shoe was the display and had been tried on and walked it and was stretched out. I had tried on the pink shoes and was happy with the size but I took the nude instead in the same size without trying them on. What a mess. Don't shop at Dillard's!!!

Beware when ordering a gift card from Dillards. I ordered a gift card online for a wedding gift, and my card was debited twice for the full amount. When I called to question this, I was told that one was a "preauthorization" and would drop off and be credited to my account in 3-5 days. That's 3-5 days that Dillards is holding my money. There is nothing in their web ordering site that mentions this. If I had known that this was their practice, I would have ordered a gift card from Amazon.com.

On Friday the 20th of May I walked into Dillard's in Monroe, LA to return an item that had never been worn before from the card that someone had stolen my information from. I explained to the girl that was working that my bank closed the account due to someone else stealing my identity. She stated that she could not give a refund but she could give me a store credit. I stared. I didn't want a store credit because I planned on not returning to that location to shop and it was only fair that I get a cash refund being that before the misuse of my card from someone else I'd purchased it from my check debit card. I even went as far as calling my bank and putting them on speaker phone speaking on my account stating the same thing I tried to explain to her in the first place. So with all the back and forth she finally went and asked her manager Crystal for assistance as what to do for me.
So the customer service associate comes back and tells me that she can give me the gift card, refund my item off the gift card and turn around and redeem the gift card to give me cash back from my purchase. Like I said I frequently shop at Dillard's but just as much as I buy I find myself returning. I walked in again in Dillard's Sunday, May 22nd with another return, took up to customer service again like I'd done before. The same lady was working that was working that Friday. This time I had an Internet order to return. The customer service associate (Beatrice) then tells me that the manager Crystal who never came and showed her face that Friday of me coming in the store stated that I could not get a refund anymore until I get my new card from my bank. I told her I received my new card that Saturday in the mail but was unable to activate it.
She then calls the active (Steve) the shoe dept manager and explains to him what the Crystal lady said without giving me a chance to explain myself the problem that was going on. So (Steve) in the Monroe, LA location says too that he doesn't have the ability to override another manager decision in which I found out Crystal was not the store manager. So he could have return my jumpsuit but that's not the real problem. The real problem was when I explained to him what happened and he bluntly said "I'm not giving get you your money back" and in return I said to him "what good is it for you to be a manager if you can't authorize anything in return". He tells me "I am authorizing something good. I'm authorizing that you're not getting your money back". So I said "ok". Then while I was boxing my item up he stood there as if he was patronizing me...
I then told him that he was an unprofessional **. Then retreated and told me that I was the ** and an **. Then as if that wasn't enough, threatened me and said to me that he wasn't what I wanted and that he wanted me to try him. I asked him his name, he asked me what was mine. I tell him I asked what was his and he stated Leonard and turn around and said "sike". It didn't matter anyway because I knew his name from dealing with him in the women shoes dept. He was rude then as well but I let it slide that time but not this time. I have never been cursed, threatened and treated so rudely as well as unprofessional in my life by anyone. But even are the kids do of people Dillard's hire. And you would der why so many prior Dillard's customer order from offline to not have to deal with extreme disrespect from management or their associates.
I was a loyal customer to the Dillard's in Monroe, LA at the PecanLand Mall location but after this experience, they can have it... They want to get the commission from your transactions then treat you like ** when you need to do a refund. Their return policy stinks and their management team is a no go. Think twice if you want to do your shopping at this Dillards!!! I've not only contacted the store manager about this matter I've also contacted corporate as well. I refuse to be treated this way especially when I'm spending my hard earned money with the same who needs your commission in order to bring good, a decent check home... No way, not having it!!!

I purchased a Bare Minerals eyeliner from Dillard's at Volusia Mall. I do not use make-up every day, usually only around three times a week, and I had this product for about a month when I noticed that all the product was gone. This is a crayon type product that is used like an automatic pencil that allows you to twist out the lead as needed. On several occasions, the product broke off when I was using it so apparently it was not well designed to gently draw a line on eyelid skin.
When I returned to Dillard's to get the product replaced, I was asked for my original product box and the original sales receipt. Really, after 30 days who keeps sales receipts and boxes for cosmetics? I asked to speak to a manager. The on-duty manager came and refused to provide a replacement or refund for the defective product without a receipt. While discussing this absurd policy regarding defective products the manager started boasting about "this policy is the reason Dillard's is making a profit while Macy's is not". As for me, I will never again shop at Dillard's and Macy's has always treated me fairly and respectfully. No more Dillard's in my life!

Dillards: if you are going to sell "mother of bride" and other event-related apparel, you should check your return policy against that of your competitors. I bought a dress online from Dillards, along with two others from other stores. I left them hanging up to see them for a while in order to make a final decision. Meantime, I started shopping for another dress, and to my surprise, the dress I had purchased from Dillards was now $60 less than what I had paid. I called and asked if I could return the item, and was told that their policy is 30 days! I asked if they could offer a price reduction, and again was told "no." Seriously? I was able to return the other two items, purchased at Nordstrom and Macy's at the same time, with no trouble - as long as the tags were intact, which they were.
Finally, after asking to speak with a supervisor, they offered me the ability to return the item - for store credit only! I don't want store credit. I don't want any of the dresses that they are offering now - I found one I like at another store. I don't shop often enough to need a store credit of that amount! How dare they "hold me hostage" like this - particularly since they don't even have a store near me. I will never shop Dillards again. I will also be sharing this warning of the unfriendly return policy with my friends - many of whom have sons and daughters about to be married, and whom will be soon looking for "that special dress."

I went in today to purchase some clothing items for my son. I have a 14 year old trapped in an almost 6'3" body. I have a kid that likes dress shirts, slacks and suits. We shop in the men's section. I have never had a problem with this store before and have asked for and received help before. I was approached by two sales associates and told them we were just looking. A female sales associate yelled across the room asking if we needed help and then marched over halfway across the room. I felt like I was being escorted out. I went to the desk and paid for the items. I told her I would not be back. I found her to be quite condescending and overbearing. She just laughed and smiled. I will not step foot in a Dillard's again. I am not obligated to shop in this store or any store.

BUYER BEWARE: I'm 65-year-old man going on vacation. Purchased 2 pair of Levi Jeans. Tried on one pair, fit perfect and purchased another pair identical to first pair. Spent almost $200 cash with the store that day. Got to vacation spot, pulled tags and put on 2nd pair (those not tried on in store). The outside seams to legs were twisted around toward the front of the pants and looked horrible. As I only had these 2 new pants with me, I had to wear them. (No retail stores where I was.) When I returned back to Shreveport, LA, I immediately attempted to return the DEFECTIVE jeans (along with the cash receipt) for a nondefective pair. I was told I could not return them cause I wore them. Whatttt? Does your company resell defective merchandise??? I guess so.
In any event I attempted to reason with the Men's Dept Manager who was a complete idiot. The only words out of his mouth were that the pants were not defective and were made that way. Really?? I asked if he wanted me to try them on and show him the defect and he said, "It won't matter. I'm not taking them back." So I was very shocked, humiliated and sad. He's living in the '70s and does not realize $ from folks like you & I keep his store out of bankruptcy and Blane in a job. There are a few other retailers I can visit to spend cash. I, my wife, my family, my friends and anyone else I can convince will never spend another cent with Dillard's and will be better off for it. If you work hard for your money, I would advise whomever is reading this to spend it wiser than I did last week. Hope you're smarter. Don't spend your 1st cent!!!

Dillards in The Mall of GA has no customer service at all. I'm a retail manger therefore when I shop I expect certain service, especially in a retail location. I was interested in purchasing my boyfriend a few Polo items. Due to their lack of interest in helping me, I chose not to spend my money with them. This location just lost my business and the $400 I plans to spend.

I wish that I had read the reviews before shopping at Dillard's. I tried to return a pair of unworn boots. The soles were perfectly smooth. There was a small spot on the soles of both boots where someone tried them on carpet. Again, no scratches. If you ran your hand over them, you would not feel a thing. The 'shoe manager' refused to return them. He said they were 'not sellable.' I was shocked. They looked better than the shoes on the display. He said those had been tried on and that was why. He was unsympathetic and on a power trip. I never felt that a store wanted my money and not my business until then. He did not care about customer service or satisfaction but about keeping my money. I was floored.
As I was leaving, a nice associate told me to take them to the perimeter Dillard's. She said, "they are more helpful." She was right. The super nice lady who kindly returned my boots never questioned them and hoped my time at Dillard's was enjoyable. I said that my time at Perimeter's Dillard's is. I give them 3 stars because it's an average. 1 star for the Atlantic Station and 5 for the Perimeter store! If you shop there in Atlanta, go out of your way and go to the Perimeter store. You will be glad.

Just prior to relocating from Atlanta to Florida, my car was broken into and my purse stolen with all my credit cards. I did not replace my Dillards card because I was about to move and didn't know if there was a Dillards nearby. Some time after moving to Florida, I visited a Dillards in a nearby town where the clerk asked if I had a credit card. I told her my purse had been stolen and she informed me that she could look it up and take care of me.
A year later, having never once hearing a word from Dillards either by phone or email which they had from the application, I received a phone call at 7 am in the morning from a bill collector. I might add that he reached me on the same cell that was provided on the application. Having been busy with building my new home and receiving all my mail forwarded except for the Dillards bill, I never thought about the Dillards bill. The total I owed was $147. My near perfect credit score is now ruined over $147 and for a store that is certainly not worth it. I will NEVER shop at a Dillards again. The saddest thing is I was telling this story at work and one of my co-workers said the same thing happened to her. Thanks Dillards!
