I placed an order and the order never came. They asked me to get a police report and after contacting my local department they would not issue a report because I had no proof of criminal activity. I reached out to inform JCP about this issue and they still would not return my funds. They are thieves and have terrible service. Please spare yourself and don’t use this company. They will take your money and don’t guarantee your delivery or refund. They never even offered me store credit. Thief is the only word I can use to explain this business.

Ordered (2) sheets sets.. (1) arrived stained/dirty/used. I offered to send a photo of damage for a replacement.. CS refused to replace, did not want the photos, and refused to schedule a pickup for the return when I advised I have no transportation to get to the nearest store.

I made a purchase to be send before Christmas. The shipping address was wrong. They shipped within 24 hrs of me placing the order. They told me the store has no way of changing the shipping address once shipped to call UPS to make the change. I spoke the 5 reps after waiting on hold 40+ minutes... only for UPS to tell me I cannot make the change, the store has to make the change to the shipping address... so basically the order should be sent to who knows where because JCPenney nor UPS can make a change to shipping address once the order is shipped. Yes this store has good deals but the worst customer service and shipping policy. Oh the 4th rep I spoke with said he was going to help to change the shipping address... put me on hold. Connected me to UPS then disappeared off the call.

Went into the Eastwood Mall location on Saturday 12/11/21. The cashier couldn’t even say hello. Did not speak to us at all except to tell me my total. I said thank you when getting my bad and nothing. Sorry but it does not take much be a decent person.

Placed an order online. It stated if ordered in the next 2 hours, ordered would be delivered Friday (2 days). Then they cut my order into 3 orders. One pair of jeans was expected to be picked up in Tempe AZ, 2 1/2 hours away. It took over 2 hours on the phone to get that part of the order cancelled. 3 shirts were delivered within a reasonable time, but the other pair of jeans, 2 pjs sets, and another shirt never arrived. 19 days later and several more calls to JC customer service, the shipper, JC customer service again and chats online, a credit was issued. Now after almost 3 weeks I have to run around and try to replace my grandson's xmas presents. To add insult to injury, we celebrate xmas early with out of town family and don't have a lot of shops close by so I have to scramble to find replacements items. Not happy at all!!

I made an order and 3 of the 4 items were incorrect, and the order number was incorrect. I called to see if I could get it taken care of was told by the first supervisor my package wasn't delivered and I needed to wait a few days. I had the package in my hand, and she insisted I got someone else package. I had the packing slip, and the tracking number on the box and she told me I was wrong. I asked to speak to another supervisor and was told I had to return the wrong items to the store and get a refund and if the items I ordered weren't on sale still or were not in stock, I was out of luck. I explained I live with my disabled mom and was told I could pay $8.00 for a return label that I could have credited back... WHAT? It was their error. I have never been treated so poorly by a company and will not be shopping at Jc Penney anymore. :(

They use laser ship for delivery for online orders they have a 1 star on google didn’t think that was possible. Long story short they never delivered my package. When I called they told me to wait a few days which I did then called. They said I had to call the police and email them the report and they would call me in 5 business days. And after all that they said if it was longer than 14 days since the order date that they might not be able to do anything. WTF. First off if I called the police. I would call it on them for taking my money and not giving me what I paid for. Never seen a company want you to do their job when they don’t get you what you paid for. SMH. Go elsewhere. I have more important things to do the waste any more time on 65$ jeans. I just called my bank and said I didn’t make the purchase and they canceled the transaction 'cause It was pending. So boom problem solved.

Hi, I have purchased Samsonite laptop bag (1st Order#: **) online and after 1-2 days it says item is no longer available and it's auto cancelled. I called customer care and I was told to order again with full payment as the product is available (strange product was cancelled stating no stock but online store immediately shows it's available to order). I again placed order (2nd Order#**), after 2 days again product is auto cancelled, stating product is not available. 'What The Hell' is wrong with JCPenney. This is the worst experience with them. If the product is not available why the heck agent says to order again and why the heck online ordering allowing me to order, very much disappointed :( :( :( .

God awful customer service from the call center. I placed an order on 11/24/2021 and made sure my billing and shipping info was correct, in fact my account settings even list my current address. I however also had an old address from over 10 years ago on my account. That is where the order was sent to. Granted it was sent in 2 days, which was great. But there was no attempt from the customer service rep to assist me, she cold/blind transferred me to Rosalyn, a senior member rep, who disconnected the call when I replied "yes" when she asked if there was anything else that she can help me with. This was after a 50 minute call, half of which I was on hold without the rep checking back in on me. They would not offer to reship my order to my current address, and wanted me to track it down with ups as it was already delivered.
Additionally they said the order would be retrieved by UPS and then sent to the warehouse and I would be refunded in a week and a half to two weeks. I do the exact same job as Rosalyn does, but for a different company and there is no way we would have kept a customer on hold that long, nor would we have disconnected the call, and if it did disconnect we would attempt to call the member back, and in conclusion we would reship the order to the member. I am shocked and appalled that JC Penney would treat customers in such a manner and that their reps would be so poorly trained.

I have been a customer of JC Penney for many years and was happy with them until I tried to order furniture. I have tried 3 times ordering a sofa and I'm given delivery dates then I get constant delays. As of today the 3rd sofa is again delayed. I am so frustrated with them doing this.. I also ordered a office desk and it came to me incomplete and damaged.

I have shopped with JCP for years and never had an issue like this week. On this particular order Lasership was the shipping carrier. I knew it would take longer for delivery because they are horrible. I received JCP shipping confirmation and continued to check order tracking for days. It said waiting on package to arrive at facility. Then yesterday after long 2 hours Lasership says Exception Package damaged and I have to contact the seller. So I called JCP and was told that Lasership had to return package to their warehouse for refund.
I asked, "How will I know when it’s delivered to JCP warehouse?" And she says to call them in 10 days to check. Keep in mind this is my boys' Christmas clothes that I ordered on Nov 14. Thinking it was early enough that I would receive package before Christmas. So I asked could they replace my items if still in stock.. Customer service rep said yes if I pay for order again. Supervisor I was transferred to was horrible and had bad attitude when she answered the phone. Just an awful experience. I thought Lasership was awful! Most companies would see the problem and take care of it and resend my items not tell me I have to pay twice! Beware when ordering online with JCP when package ships Lasership. JCP has horrible customer service!

The shipping company that this store (later) uses is horrible. They state my purchase was delivered when it was not. I am home all day everyday so there is no chance of It being stolen etc. JCPenney would not assist me. Lazer says “nothing we can do, it was delivered“. There are hundreds of other complaints from customers claiming the same problem. Can not get reimbursed for a purchase that never came.

My dad and mom and I went to JCPenney's in December and my dad bought my mom a ring for Christmas and paid for the protection plan. The lady at the desk I said, "Come back after the first of the year to have it sized" so we took it home, put it in a vault and then my dad died in May so me and my mom took the ring back up to JCPenney's to be sized and gave it to a lady at the desk and ask, "Is there anything else we need?" She said no so we went on shopping. We waited and waited and I told my mom, "You need to call JCPenney's in check on your ring to see if it is in." They said, "There's a problem. You need to come in" so we did.
They lost the ring and the store manager Amy at the Northwest Arkansas Mall in Fayetteville does not tell the truth is brood. We called corporate. They did not tell the truth. They opened up a case. A day later they closed it without letting us know. We called them again. They opened up another case. 5 to 7 days later they closed it again and said there's nothing else they can do. So you got your paperwork where you bought the ring and your warranty papers. They will not do anything. They will not take care of the situation. That's why JCPenney's are closing everywhere is because they don't take care of their customers. They don't do the right thing. I hope this does not happen to you. Do not buy jewelry from JCPenney's. They might lose it and they will not take care and the mistake they did.

Ordered a sheet set in 2 parts, JCP shipping the basic sheet set, and cancelled the matching king size pillowcases. JCP refuses to waive an $8 shipping fee for the no-longer useful sheet set that will come without the matching pillowcases. As a result I will be refusing a $200 order that included a half dozen items. There is no way I will waste 90 minutes driving to the local store to return just a sheet set, the gasoline will cost more than the shipping. Since JCP won't correct its own screwup, I will make the correction by never shopping JCP for anything again. Worst customer service ever. James Cash Penney must be rolling over in his grave at what became of his once great store.

I placed an order on June 27, 2021 with an expected delivery date of July 28, 2021. I called on July 26, since I did not receive a call in regards to delivery time. I was told by the representative that my item would not be shipped until September with no exact delivery date or time frame. Basically, if I did not call I would not have received an update about my order. I have received conflicting delivery dates. It is 3 months later and I have not received my order.

JCPenney's customer service is awful. Their products are great, but so are other stores. I purchased a sports team item online and was unable to type in the coupon to get a discount, so I emailed customer service. Whoever answered my email was very unhelpful, robotic, and almost condescending. This is not the first time that I've had issues with their customer service and I've honestly had it with the company. I don't have to shop here and I won't from now on. I give them a zero for customer service. It might as well have been an automated machine on the other end. That employee should not be working in a customer service position. Very disappointed. I didn't get the discount from my coupon and I really don't care because I was on the fence already and that employee's response just confirmed to me that JCPenney has lost its magic.

Ordered my kids some back to school outfits on a Sunday. Received an email Tuesday stating half my order couldn't be fulfilled due to it not being available (even though the website stated they were in stock). I called the 1800 number in attempt to cancel the entire order after spending well over $100. I figured since they couldn't fulfill the entire order I'd just get a refund and go to a local store to find it. WRONG.
Lady on the phone stated that I would have had to cancel the order within 30 minutes of placing it for them to be able to do it. Ok...well I didn't know you guys couldn't fufill half my order until 3 days after placing it. On top of that the order hasn't been shipped or even processed yet. So now they've got $100+ refunded half my money because they couldn't fufill it (which god knows how long it'll take 'til I see that refund) and now I'm forced to take the order I don't want anymore. I asked the lady why I only have 30 minutes to cancel my order yet they don't have to inform me for 3 days after the order that half of it can't be fulfilled. Won't be ordering from here ever again period.

Ordered curtain panels on June 11; Received an email on June 15 indicating shipped but as of June 29 the tracking number indicates the package has not arrived at the UPS station. Called to cancel the order and was told I had to wait 12 business days. Called back on the 12th business day and was told I had to wait until the end of the business day to cancel (meaning I would have to spend my time making a THIRD call). The Customer Service agent kept interrupting me and finally hung up on me. I called JC Penney Headquarters and received assistance there. But I will never do business with JC Penney again. No local service whatsoever. No wonder these department stores have driven themselves out of business.

Ordered a mattress in store on 5/16 and was told it would be delivered 6/9. Got an email on 5/27 that it had shipped and I would be contacted to schedule a delivery time within 7 days. After the 7 days had passed I still hadn’t been contacted so I called them and was told it was lost and they’d have to do a “doc search” and would let me know something within 3-4 business days. Finally after 2 weeks of not hearing anything, I called them again and the customer service rep was just saying whatever he could to try to get me to hang up and it was very obvious he wasn’t listening to what I was saying at all. Finally after giving me the runaround I was told the first doc search was never filled out so they would send another and it would be another 2 days before I’d hear anything.
Their policy is that you can’t cancel unless it’s within 48 hours of ordering and if you send it back it is a 15% restocking fee so trying to cancel the order wouldn’t do any good. Then after all this, the customer service rep simply told me he was sorry I felt that way and then had the audacity to ask me to rate him 5 stars on a customer survey. I will never order from them again.

I have always been able to find designer clothes at a reasonable price (and in petite sizes that fit me best) at JC Penney. They offer in-store and online sales almost daily making my purchases even less costly. They also have curbside pickup for online purchases, or your items can be sent directly to your address. JC Penney has seldom ever let me down.

I went into JC Penney in Boise Idaho at the Mall to buy a pair of shoes. I picked out two pair and went to pay for them at the register. The young lady at the Register said that if I had a JC Penney Card, I could save several Dollars on my purchase. So I filled out the questions and she handed me a folder with my receipt as well as the information on the card. She also said that the card offered a nice discount if used that day, so I went and found a suit and also when leaving the store saw three shirts that I also purchased. A few weeks went by and I received a notice in the mail that all my purchases were charged on the card. When I looked at my receipt in the folder the lady gave me it showed that all purchases that day were charged to the card ????, I contacted the manager for that department and told him what had transpired and he said he would check and have the store Manager call me with the results of his inquiry.
Several days went by and so I went to the store and asked for the Store Manager and when he came, I related the whole experience to him. He said he would view the Security Camera footage and let me know what was recorded. When he called me back he stated that the camera was off just enough to miss me handing the cashier any funds and if I did, then she most likely returned the funds before ringing up the sale. In fact what was stated to me at the time was that the reason for scanning the card information was to get the Discount that day. I really think that there was a problem with the payment procedure.
As I looked at my wallet to see if in fact the lady had returned the money to me and as I had thought, the money was not there. The store Manager even though seemed sincere and apparently tried to do what he could, said that I may have dropped the returned funds in the store or misplaced it somehow. He even suggested that my wife may have Known where the money went???. I told him that unfortunately the store had lost a good customer who had spent literally thousands of dollars in JC Penney in my lifetime (82 years) and that I would never enter a JC Penney store ever again and would just let all the stress from the experience go as I could not handle the difficulty it caused me.
I told him it was only $300 dollars and not the money, but the principle that concerned me. I learned a $300 dollar lesson from the encounter, which is to never leave a cashier without looking at your receipt. I paid off the credit card and am left with the knowledge that two pair of shoes, a suit and three shirts cost me $606.22 with the original funds and the cost to pay off the credit card. Now I have to cancel the credit card as I will never use it. All this frustration because I wanted to save some money by getting a credit card that offered a discount. By the way I have several close friends who work at that store and they all say that they have never heard of this sort of thing happening at their store. Very frustrating to be sure.

I purchased 2 mattress from JCP. They’re just about a year old and one of the mattresses is starting to have a huge dent in it. I called customer service and they will refund me my money but I have to pay $130 for a pick up and restocking fee. In reality I’m not getting my entire refund back if I have to pay $130. I was sold a junk of a mattress and I was never informed in detail about these hidden charges, should something go wrong with the mattress.

I’m not one to turn people away from businesses, as I know people need to have their own experiences and make their own opinions. However, I STRONGLY advise literally any and everyone to stay away from JCPenney in the Ocean County Mall. My husband purchased my wedding set in 2017 and it has been issue after issue with them ever since. Not only are ALL of the jewelry associates inconceivably rude and unhelpful, but I have been calling customer service over and over, asking to be transferred to managers and supervisors for two hours now and my issue is STILL not resolved.
Once I get my rings back (IF EVER) after not having them for over a month, I will be taking them elsewhere to be serviced even after my husband paid extra for the lifetime warranty, because at this point, I would literally spend any amount of money to never be treated like this again. Do yourself a favor and don’t bother buying anything of value from this store. You will 1000% regret it.

My experience is with a mattress purchase (well 2 after 1 was warranty replacement) and not one portion of my experience was simple, or done as promised. The delivery companies they source out didn't set up as promised, didn't take away as promised, and honestly seemed clueless as to what I was told major communication issues. Both times the mattresses were in protective plastic however after they were dragged down the driveway in the winter they had mud all over them. I've had so many 'cases' created and no ultimate resolution. The quality of the product, service and every aspect of the buying experience was nothing short of a nightmare. If I didn't hope they'll refund me eventually I wouldn't have purchased a second mattress but I was told it was a warranty replacement. Due to this experience I would no sooner purchase a towel from this company ever again. Total disappointment for such a huge corporation.

Dear team, Subject: Order has been incorrectly shipped. I have received items which I have never ordered. The customer service escalation has not been very supportive or customer friendly. I was asked to return the incorrect package with a return label in spite of my request / against my will to commute due to COVID risk. I am also told that most of the customers lie about package delivery hence there is no proof which is a serious accusation. This makes JCP management look into customer service division and shipment division for the improvements. This experience has caused me tremendous hassle over all, delay in my scheduled travel plans. Please respond to refund my money which was not serviced. If no response received this issue has to be escalated further up the JCP senior management team to avoid further problems to other customers like me who is a rewards member for 3.5 years. Thanks.

This e-mail is in regard to my recent order. After several calls to customer service, I contacted the sheriff's department and filed a police report, for the package I did not receive. I also contacted the post office and inquired as to the location of my package. At this point, I should expect a full refund of the purchase price of the items I ordered.
On a side note, I have NEVER received such poor customer service. I was literally warned in my delivery notification: "CAN'T FIND YOUR ORDER? This happens sometimes. The first thing to do is to check the bushes, front and back porches, and other possible delivery spots such as with your neighbors. Carriers also occasionally mark packages “Delivered” before they’re dropped off. Please contact the carrier if it’s been more than two hours since you got a delivery notification. More Questions?"
This notice should have been my first clue as to what I should expect. I waited the “up to three days” for my package to arrive, checked my mailbox, the neighbors houses, and “the bushes”. Today, five full days since my package was supposed to have arrived I contacted JCPenney “customer service”. I was informed the package was delivered and I would need to file a police report in order for JCPenney to investigate the claim before any possible refund of my money, because my order was in excess of $100.00; apparently if I hadn’t spent so much money at JCPenney I could have gotten some satisfaction (I won’t make that mistake again).
I contacted my local post office, filed a police report, and have spent the morning kicking myself for ever ordering from JCPenney. JCPenney held no accountability regarding the delivery; shouldn’t the merchant contact their delivery service to find out where the package ended up? When did the customer become responsible for the poor delivery service of a vendor?
So, here I sit, nothing to give my children for Christmas, being billed for items I never received, spending my entire morning dealing with customer service, the US postal service, and the Sheriff’s office. I know my pitiful little order does not mean a thing to JCPenney, they are a big company, but I promise you I will never order from JCPenney again. AMAZON and Ebay should be paying them for the excellent advertising, Shame on me.

I accidentally scheduled for JCPenney Portraits studio at P495 Westfarms Mall instead of the P418 Trumbull location. This error caused my family much frustration and confusion but we decided to drive from our home to the Hartford area which is approximately 45 minutes drive. Due to distance learning and other issues we cancelled our 2pm appointment and rescheduled for 5pm.
We really eager, excited and wanted to get our photos done and didn't mind the trip as my parents, grandparents, cousins and extended family always used JCPenney photo studies since I was a child. We arrived at 5:05pm and met ** the assistant manager of the site, she made us feel welcomed and even opted to take photos of our three children individually with the family package deal we opted for. Our children are age 6,4, and 1. We were informed to use the family dressing room, picked out a background and told that after we changed we would be photographed.
At 5:10pm after getting dressed we were then immediately told that we cannot take the photos, our session was cancelled because "you took too long and because of COVID-19 I don't have time". I explained to ** that we traveled 45 min with three children, battled through traffic, still arrived on time and I wouldn't mind if she would have informed me of this before heading to the dressing room. She became irate, irritable and frustrated, ** was condescending rude and belligerent stating "I am the assistant manager and this is my decision so you have to rebook that's all you can do I have other customers and it will be 5:30 your session is over".
I continued to explain to her that we would even consider waiting until the last customer to do our shoot even if she would take our one year olds pictures as his birthday was April 11, 2019 and due to COVID-19 we had to wait until this time. To say the least I was in tears, extremely emotional and very surprised as to why she did not forewarn us about this issue before getting dressed. In my sorrow I asked to speak with the store supervisor (**) who was rude, also agitated and frustrated as I was explaining the situation. She proceeded to speak with ** in Spanish for two minutes then proceeded to explain the photo policies and how there was nothing she could do for us and "this is the rule you cannot get it done". As I proceeded to explain to her about our 45 minute drive, lack of communication she immediately silenced my request by staying "policy is policy and there is nothing I can do".
I am a 35 year old, nurse, mother and biggest customer of JCPenney and JCPenney studios. I am appalled by the lack of respect for customers and professionalism. The actions of the team was distasteful and classless for a company I held in high regard. I honestly need answers even emailed corporate about this. I honestly do not believe that this was the first time anything like this has happened and Jelisa's comfortability and ego driven approach has gone unreported for far too long. ** the manager lack of enthusiasm for her job and frustrations was displaced on me (the customer). To have this occur in front of our children was very tasteless and repulsive.

I placed an order and did receive a shipping confirmation. The tracking number shows the package has not moved at all in over a week. This is a clear indication that the package is lost. Customer service claims they cannot offer a refund. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that the package is clearly lost if there’s been no movement in over a week. And they can’t provide a refund? Horrible customer service.

Updated on 06/06/2021: September 2020 I received the Sealy Posturepedic mattress on sale due to inventory overstock. I thought it was inventory overstock since they had to close over 200 stores. But, alas, it wasn't. During a pandemic, they sold me a USED mattress that deflated in one week - lord knows who the former owners were - did they die from COVID or underwent Chemo? Since JCP was in Chapter 11, no one answered their phones so I went to Sealy Management who informed me that my mattress was not defective nor did it come from the Sealy factory - it came from another factory that cleans USED mattresses, rife with chemicals . The bottom line - I sued in small claims court for medical bills - yes MEDICAL BILLS! And won! Now I gotta go after JCP to get my money.
Original Review: In 1 wk my new mattress deflated. Their customer dis-service hung up on me repeatedly and after 3 days said while I spoke, "Tap tap tap I don't hear you. CLICK." I spoke with Sealy, the manufacturer, in the Executive Office, & found out that the JCP Sale mattresses are USED! They sold me a USED MATTRESS DURING A PANDEMIC! It took nearly 2 months to get that out of my home & they did so because Sealy Executive Management fought on my behalf. Still, they stifled me the promised refund on my credit card. There's more to this, but I prefer COURT.

We purchased a mattress and the mattress was defective. They then sent me another mattress and the current one is defective as well. They will not refund me any of the money, unless I buy another mattress from them and even then they only wanted to exchange mattress for mattress. Then if I were to buy another bed they are asking me to pay restocking fees and delivery fees. I have spent over a year trying to resolve this issue. Between management and customer service, they blame one another, and neither of them can help you. Word of advice never buy a mattress from JCPenney. You'll be losing your money and be stuck with a pile of trash.

Ordered from JCPenney and the order was wrong. When I call come to find out that I have to send the wrong item back and then they will send me the one I ordered if in stock and if not they will give me refund. Now I understand why JCPenney is going out of business and shutting down stores. They are not able to compete with Amazon. I have been shopping with Amazon since 2011 as a Prime member and if there is a problem they take care of it and go beyond with their customer service to keep the customer happy. I'm glad that these big giant stores are going out of business because they thought they were the gods of the retail business. Bad service and bad customer handling.

Please help. I ordered two sets of mattresses a couple weeks ago. Last Friday evening I received a call telling me that I would receive a call on Monday with my two hour delivery window. I waited around all day and once I got home I got a call that they would be delivering the next day between 5 and 7 pm. I was at work that day and at 2:30 I was called and told they were 30 minutes away and was anyone home. I am single and live alone and work about 45 minutes from home. I said it would take me about an hour and half as I needed to wrap up work. They said they needed to call their boss and she told me if I wasn't home in 30 they would reschedule. I told her to cancel the order.
On Wednesday I got a call and they asked if they could deliver the next day and I told them if only delivered after 5 pm. They said they would try. They called the next day and said they would be there between 10 am and noon. I left work around 9:20 and got home and waited till after noon. I called the number they had used and they said they were about an hour away. I said I would not be home and they would have to come back after 5 like I asked. They said they can't do that. They asked if they could just leave them and I said no because you also have to pick up the old ones. They said, "You can put them outside and we can leave the new ones."
I did as asked and go home and all the new mattresses were in torn bags sitting in my yard and my cold mattresses were there as well. I had all my stuff in storage for over two months and I am not sure what got on my mattresses but that was the reason I was buying new ones. I smelled like cat. Another story. They refused to take them citing corona. I understand that but they could have wrapped them in the old plastic had they done the job that I had ordered and pay for. I have never been through something this bad. I had to carry my mattresses up the steps into my house by myself. I just moved and I am sore from just my stuff. I am on hold with your company for over 50 minutes more than twice this week. I have been hung up on and sent to dead numbers, etc. The list goes on and on. I want some satisfaction and will not go away till this is handled. What do you plan on doing?

Paid in full for custom design shades. Installation was scheduled early April, then cancelled due to Covid-19 (understandable). However, Customer Service said when stores reopened they would reschedule. After several phone calls they still won't reschedule installation. My issue is that the balance due was paid on April 25th (they had the account information in order to make charge) but they knew they couldn't install yet. And THEN filed bankruptcy on 5/15/20! This seems fraudulent. I know I may have to have someone else install them, but JC Penney should refund the cost of installation or get someone out to finish the job. I've called several times to get updates, but nothing has changed and I just get fed the standard vague BS, waiting for Corporate, blahblahblah.

Honestly SO FURIOUS. Worst customer service ever. Would give negative stars if I could. I bought 2 pair of earrings a few MONTH ago and decided to return one via mail. WORST DECISION EVER. 1st, the packaging slip told me to send my item back to NY, which I did (I assumed the NY address was for verification in case they think i'm sending back a fake one). I then contacted customer service NUMEROUS times to see updates on my return/package. 2nd, They kept insisting that their packaging slip said to send it to OH, which it didn't. I'm not blind, I know the address told me to send it back to NY, I'm not going to pull a NY address out of nowhere. Customer service started 2-3 cases for me, WHICH HAS DONE NOTHING, STILL NO UPDATES.
I contacted them via online chat twice, the first one he created a case for me and said nothing needed to be done, I just needed to wait 3 weeks. 4 weeks AFTER I contact them again and the customer service agent said the case was closed and everything should be all set. A FEW WEEKS LATER, I emailed them asking for updates and they said they still haven't received my return and they'll start another case for me, which I have not heard back from.
I regret buying from JC PENNEY and will tell all my friends and family to cancel their JC PENNEY cards and never shop here again. Literally WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER.

An item I ordered in multiples dropped by $4 per item. I ordered them with a promo. The very next day, using that same promo, the item would be $4 cheaper. JCPenny's "price match guarantee" does not compare apples to apples. They compare your after promo price on your original order to the before promo price on the website. Only if that before promo price is cheaper than what you paid will they give you the difference. You basically have to cancel or return your order and then reorder to get the difference. Pretty ridiculous. I was surprised they were one of the last retailers to still have a price match but now I understand it's just a gimmick.

We will never have anything that owns by Synchrony Bank!!! We open a JCPenney Card because of all the saving on buying a tux at last minute for an occasion.... we are the type of people will pay our bills before the due days .... We opened the account on Jan 13th 2020, the bill arrived, we attempted to pay the bill twice, first time was 2/3 (we spoke to a human), second attempt was 2/8 (auto pay) and our actual due date it's 2/14). Well both times was unsuccessful....then next cycle of bill came, on our statement it showed that we paid twice and was credited on the account, but somehow money was never withdrawn from our checking account (now we have late fees and interest) ...
So again we called to talk to human and her name was Cindy, after struggling with Cindy about the charges/fees and that went on for 10 minutes that we will have to pay, so we demanded to speak to a supervisor, she then decided to investigate what happened to our attempts payments, huh for some crazy reasons our checking account both times was one digit off, it was a 3 instead of a 4 (the key board 3 and 4 not even next to each other????). Funny.... so Cindy will resolve this, so best way at the moment to clear our bill was pay with our Debit card... but the system wouldn’t take our Debit card.... so Cindy said, "Can you walk into JC Penney to pay your bill and that's the only way (Ok no problem, Penney is half drive from our house....). Cindy assured us that she will make a note on our account so when we get to JC Penney to pay, all our charges and fee shouldn’t be on the bill....but do it today she said...
So we headed to JC Penney to paid our bill (this become a job now!). Fast forward ... we are now at the store counter for 30 min fighting, lady on the other end with Synchrony Bank refused to take all fees and charges off!!! Cause such a commotion that a store manager walked by and decided to get on the phone and help... same fight, went for another half hour after manager (Dahlia) demanded to speak with supervisor....finally we paid what our bills supposed to be.... Bottom line here is that, this bank will make you jump though lot of hoops if you are paying your bills ahead, they want you to be late and holding a balance!!! ** way to put people in debt!!!

I have had two terrible experiences with JCP in a row so that warrants a review. First, my daughter and I went shopping for something to wear to my sons wedding in the spring. She found something in the store she likes but I didn’t find anything I really liked in my size. The lady helping us suggested looking online cause there were several things I would like but they didn’t have my size in stock. So I went online and actually bought five dresses, When they arrived I tried them on and got a second opinion of my family, selecting what I would wear to the wedding. I decided to keep a second one as well just because I liked it and it was casual enough to wear elsewhere. So, with the return process they tell you to take to a local store. Okay I can do that. I returned the other three to my local store. They only gave me a partial refund and charged a restocking fee! Who does that nowadays? No retailer that I know of.
Fast forward... I haven’t shopped at JCP since the above experience and go out of my way not to now... But my hubby wanted this certain jacket that they sale. So I found it online, it was sold out but allowed me to enter my email for notification when it was back in stock. As luck would have it, I got an email the week before Valentines. So I ordered it. Regular shipping was like $8 but I could pay $16 and get it by Valentine’s Day, so I paid extra for expedited shipping. On the afternoon of the 14th, I checked tracking only to find out that it had been changed to the 17th with no email, no notification of any kind and so now I have paid extra for a service I didn’t receive.
JCP has too much competition to forget that the customer is why they exist at all. Doing business the way they are, they will soon go the way of John A. Brown, Sears, etc. The world we live in today requires you EARN a customers business because we have choices. It’s no longer 1975 where there are only a handful of retailers and customers must choose the lesser of the evils. We expect service for the price we pay and JCP has proven two times in a row that they don’t know the meaning of customer service.

It is now the 28th, and I'm talking to Customer service and she begins to tell me that because the coupon that was applied on 12/19 was apparently not APPLICABLE to the order, they canceled the order entirely without my knowledge. I received ZERO notification of this cancellation, ZERO phone call or email of this and my kids are without their Christmas gifts.

Although the bank does not send out an invoice for use following a dormant period, they do invoice the following month and charge a late fee for the late payment that was never requested. According to the agent with whom we spoke, the bank is aware of this problem and has had many complaints. Yet they continue this practice.
Our JC Penney card is issued by Synchrony. We received no invoice in November but an invoice and late fee in December. When we first contacted the agent, he said that the call would be recorded as part of debt collection. However when questioned, the agent quickly acknowledged that he knew that a November invoice had not been issued. When questioned again, he agreed to remove the late fee. When questioned again, he agreed to remove any impact on our credit rating. The bank should not issue late fees when they know an invoice was not sent the previous month.

I ordered Mattress and Box Spring online. Everything went well until the day of delivery. The delivery company (Ryder) told me, they can't get my queen size box spring up the steps, that I'd have to order a split. (First, I'd like to say they were just LAZY! I originally have a Full Queen box spring.) Then they wouldn't leave the mattress, as I was told it has to be delivered as a set, since that's how it was sold.
Okay, fine, I called JCPenney, ordered a Split box spring. They already refunded me for the original Box spring. Had to call JCP back the 2nd time, for them to approve the re-delivery of the mattress. Called back 2 days later was told it was approved for re-delivery and probably wouldn't be re-delivered until my split box springs were delivered. Again not the happiest but fine, willing to wait! Already waited 3 weeks.
I get a email last week scheduling my box springs. I thought yay, finally! Well nope more of a nightmare. I check today the 23rd, and seen the mattress was fully refunded to me on the 17th. I had to call and not only speak to 1 person. Spoke to 3 people, including a manager. All of which couldn't explain why it was cancelled when in the notes it stated I was still accepting the Mattress. But now, I'd have to reorder and wait another 3-4 weeks for delivery. Well at this point, I'm done, keep your stuff, cancel the box spring order as well.
The manager told me, it was my fault I didn't keep the mattress. I said, "I was told by your delivery company (Ryder), that they can't leave just 1 piece cause the entire order wasn't being delivered." That's why I called and put in a claim for re-delivery, and at that time, that CSR told me that the delivery company was correct. Now you are telling me, that I could have kept the mattress and my fault I didn't when I tried to but I was told no from the delivery company. Either way, JCP and the delivery company they have hired need to get it all together. Even a order I received on Saturday, last minute Christmas gifts, I had to call JCP cause I also received other peoples merchandise inside of my package, and to let them know about it.

While the customer service agents tell me they forward my information to someone higher up to fix the problem. It has not, the issue is still not repaired. Why? They are losing me as a customer of 40 years. I am so disappointed that no one cares enough to fix the problem.

If I can give negative stars I would. JcPenney will not survive if they can't compete with online retail. They quickly lost me. When I placed an order for item for Christmas and wait 5 days to email item is no longer available. It their job to manage their inventory. Now the item is only available if I'm willing to pay double msrp and will not arrive on time. Thanks JcPenney for wasting my time.

I purchased 7 different kitchen items during the Cyber Monday sale. When I purchased the items, which all had rebates, I used the in app rebate button, filled out the form 7 times, and submitted THE SAME DAY OF PURCHASE. I got a notification the rebates were submitted and accepted. Then notification the rebates were ALL invalid.
When I contacted Rebate customer service, Rep Davidson advised me they were all invalid, and told me to wait 5 to 7 business days since I had only submitted YESTERDAY. It had been 12 days!!! He was rude, and would not answer my questions. Davidson told me I waited "past the complete time frame", making "making all the rebates invalid". HOW COULD IT BE INVALID IF I DID THEM THE SAME I PURCHASED THE ITEMS??!? Then I tried customer service for JCP. I held for 2 hours last night before I was hung up on. So far now I have been on hold for 3 hours and 38 minutes. I tried the "give me a call back option" - they called back before I hung up the original call, said I was 1st in queue (GREAT!), that was almost 4 hours ago (Yay me, I guess).
At this point, I just want to return everything, and get my money back. Is this normal? It seems excessive to me!!! I tried Twitter, email, chat, and by phone. I am done with JCP! Items were cheap poor quality crap, and then being scammed on top of that? NO THANK YOU! I live 2.5 hours away from the nearest store or I would be complaining in person!!! JCP needs to care about their customers!

It was Thanksgiving Day and I decided to order wireless earbuds for my three children. I decided to order early hoping for same day pickup because before 3pm it is supposed to be ready that day. I ordered them at around 2:54pm. They were in stock because while adding to my cart it said 16 left. I never received a text that afternoon to pick them up, which I should have because they were ordered in time for same day. I get an email the next day saying they cancelled my order. WOW! So, I go up there and the manager said once in stock come back and they would honor the price. Okay. They did try to tell me they must have not been in stock and I stated they were for multiple reasons.
1. It literally said how many were left. 2. There is a line drawn across the color box when they run out. 3. When out of stock it says out of stock and does not allow you to add to cart! I return days later and another manager orders them again. Now it says delayed and has continued to say this. I have not been charged and okay, BUT I want the earbuds I ordered. This company is so fishy with orders and should have never offered their online, pick up in store service if they cannot keep up and do their job. NEVER ORDERING FROM HERE AGAIN!

I placed an order with JCPenney online Black Friday. I’ve only ordered one other time from their website and that was for a donation eight years when I lived in Louisville,KY. (I’m now in Cincinnati, OH) I deleted the old address, deleted my old saved card, entered my new address and new card and then checked out. The website informed me some of my items were available at the JCPenney five minutes from my house and I agreed to pick up those items. (Five of my items were canceled because they weren’t in stock) The rest of the items said they would be shipped.
Two weeks and some later I get an email me stuff has arrived and happen to notice it is at the Louisville, KY address! I go online to check the account and my new address isn’t in their system at all (that matches my credit card and pick up location) and my eight years ago address is in their system twice. Something happened within their website/tech/glitch - of course they are making me pay for it and aren’t taking care of it. It’s all my fault... After waiting for a person for over thirty minutes, Now on for over an hour and talking to a supervisor - I’m informed two of my items haven’t been delivered yet and I can go to UPS website, sign up for UPS my choice and at least have the last two things sent to my house. I do ALL that and the website tells me only the business shipping can change it. Then I’m told I can enter the packages that have been delivered and put claims out and UPS website doesn’t allow that access to me.
Lastly, I’m informed I need to call the Louisville Police and fill out a theft report, send the report to JCPenney and then they have to approve it and decide to refund me my money!?!? I’m sick over all this. What should happen is they figure out what the heck with their system, send me all my items that went to the wrong address and take care of the missing packages themselves. I will NEVER place an online order with them again. Probably won’t bother shopping there either.
Kohl’s is just as close as them along with other places... I’m so livid over this experience and that I’m made out like I’m a liar or crazy or something and never say there and filled out all this information. They had no problem using my credit card and the address on that!!! Funny how that works.... I’ve worked in customer service for over half my life and am very dang gone good at it, so I have no sympathy for what they are putting me through. Don’t waste your time and energy with their website - something will get screwed up or canceled most likely!

I asked to speak to manager and explained that according to UPS site that JCPenney could have corrected the item for me, only to be told it was my mistake and once the order is placed they cannot change it. I was told I could have cancelled the order, but explained again that the funds were on hold and that would take longer to be released so cancelling an order for a little mistake is not really an option.

Your ring is received by the counter associate-shipped out via a carrier to a third party repair shop, returned to you via another carrier 4-6 weeks and later, and all jewelry department employees have unrestricted access to your jewelry until pick up. I read online that it takes longer to do a cleaning than it does to swap a diamond. NEEDLESS to say, when my ring came back, the center 2 ct stone was completely different.
It was not as shiny as it was when I first purchased the ring. The brilliance was lacking -- noticeably duller. I made a big fuss about it and it was clear that the counter associate was trained in a back room for 3 hours prior to her start date, and the manager was also clueless about jewelry related matters. They offered me a refund and I took it, because once you walk out of the store... You have no rights. It was a beautiful ring, but their practices are shady. BE careful. Never leave your ring unattended anywhere! Even for a cleaning, stand by and watch. A diamond can be swapped in a matter of minutes and you won't realize it until it is too late.

I gave them my order number and I know what I ordered and they continued to say I only ordered four of a buy one get one free, when I actually ordered six of buy three get three free... I looked at my screenshot of what I ordered and it was buy three get three free and they continued to say it was buy one get one free. I paid for three and should have received my three free. Instead I paid for three and got one free. How do they justify this? This is the second time they have done this... I also had a buy one pair of shoes get two free and never received the free shoes at all... Never got refunded or helped on this either. Will never shop JCPenney again.

Purchased 4 piece bedroom set. The set arrived and delivery drivers brought all items in and begun to assemble all items. The 3 dressers were put together and the bed was the final item to be assembled. As the the pieces of the bed were removed from the box, the driver noticed that the side rails for the bed were dark brown instead of black like the entire rest of the set. I called JCPenney immediately to report that the wrong colored side rails were sent and wanted to request that the correct color side rails be sent instead. I was happy with the set, with the exception of the colors not matching. JCPenney stated that the side rails cannot be exchanged, but that the entire set needed to be returned. How frustrating already.
It's been 3 weeks, yesterday since the set was delivered and contact was made with JCPenney. At this time, the bedroom set remains in my home, half set up. We obviously can't use the items because everything needs to go back. I've spoken to JCPenney 7 times in the last 3 weeks and every time there's a different excuse for why the items have not been picked up. A few times, I was informed that my ticket was closed for an unknown reason. The ticket would then need to be reopened. I was informed another time that my request was closed and items weren't being picked up because I failed to pay the restocking and pick up fee.... I was never informed of such a fee and why would I pay this fee considering I didn't mess up the order or initiate the return. The return was initiated by JCPenney.
My last call to JCPenney occurred today. I have no idea when the items will finally be picked up so that I can be reimbursed and move on. I'm hopeful that something positive will happen over the next 2 days so that I don't have to place future calls.JCPenney says that once the pickup occurs, I can call them back and request a refund and then I can reorder. It's sad for JCPenney to believe that it's right to ask someone to call and request a refund for something that's being returned. Isn't that the natural next step and not something someone should have to call as ask for. I can't believe one would actually reorder items after going through a 3+ week nightmare to simply have some items we're unable to use be picked up.
My child's clothing is in garbage bags and his mattress is on the floor considering we can't use the furniture in his room. I missed work and pay on the day the items were delivered so I could be available and I've spent hours and hours on the phone since the delivery date trying to get the items picked up. This is beyond ridiculous at this point. I strongly discourage anyone from ordering from them. I know that after this issue is resolved, I'll never purchase from them again. Please carefully consider any other option than Penny's if looking to purchase furniture, etc.

My furniture was scheduled for delivery on 4/16/2019 between the hours of 4-6 PM by Ryder Company. I took time from work and got home at 1:50 Pm only to receive a voice message from JCP that the delivery person was at my home at 1:30 PM and any no one is there. I called them back immediately and told them that I was at home for my schedule delivery, and the delivery person should not have showed up before the appointed time at 2:00 PM, and then left stating I am not home.
JCP put me on hold for more than half an hour only to told me to reschedule because the furniture went back to warehouse. I told the woman that I did not do business with Ryder trucking but with them so I need my furniture delivered. She promised to give me a credit of $25.00, and brushed it off like it is not a big deal. At this point I am very upset because I have to take time off again from my job because I have to reschedule again for 4/23/19. This was not my fault, yet, I have to suffer the inconvenience. I will not order anything again from JCP. I will go to Amazon.

I ordered a dining table set with 4 chairs, three of the four chairs were damaged. The people who delivered the furniture told me to contact JCPenney to resolve the problem. JCPenney gave me the option to either return the item for a refund or they can send someone to fix them. I decided on the repairman option, he came out and could not fix them and stated we have to order new legs for the chairs. I called JCPenney to make sure they placed the order, they stated the order has been placed and said they would contact me when the legs are in and the repairman will come back out.
1 month later I still haven't heard from them. I contact them and they state they are still waiting on the legs. I keep checking weekly until another month passes and I get fed up and ask for a specific delivery date. The rep that I spoke to checks and then states they never placed in the order for the legs. So all this time they are just lying, hoping you forget about what they promised.
I ask to speak with a manager and the rep said that there are no managers and everyone is on the same level in her department. She gave me the option to put in the order now for the legs or to be compensated $90 (my purchase was over $2000), but I can't get both even though they provided such an inconvenience. I chose to have the legs ordered. But the rep was so awful I call JCPenney corporate to report her and they check the status of the issue and said that the rep issued the refund of $90.
I told them that I had recorded my conversation with the rep and it clearly states that I want my furniture fixed. They said that once a compensation is order there is nothing they can do to fix it. I told them this unfair and that if they are going to sell me damaged good that I would be refunded an amount to reflect the price of the damaged furniture. They agreed to return 30% of the payment (I wasn't allowed to return the furniture at this point because it has been 3 months at this point).
I check 1.5 weeks later and they still haven't refunded me my money. I called and another rep said that they will fix my chairs now. I am beyond confused and livid at this point but agree to give her the serial number for the chairs as she requested. I call a week later to see if they are being delivered and a new rep said that they can't repair my furniture because I was refunded $90 already. I keep calling every other day trying to sort this out but each time it's a new rep and even when each new rep promise they will personally help this issue none of them pick up their extension or call me back.
It's been four months now, I still have the damaged furniture with no repair schedule, no option to return the damaged set, or a refund. The customer service employees for this company are the absolute laziest people, who I am sure are just wasting time away to get paid without having to do any work. Order from Wayfair or some other online company, anywhere is better than here.

We ordered cellular shades from them a month and half ago. When the shades were delivered to our house, I called the store to schedule the installation. I was told the installation was going to be done by another company belongs to JCPenney based in Texas and they could only put in my request through the system because they were not allowed to call that company directly. And once the request is received, someone will call me to schedule the installation. I waited 2 weeks but nobody contacted me. I called the store several times and all they could tell me was "I will send them another email". Finally someone from the Texas company called me and scheduled the installation. I was given a 4 hour window. When the day came, I waited 4 hours but nobody showed up. I called the store but got the same response - they were not responsible for the installation and they weren't allowed to call the installation company.
After demanding to speak to the supervisor, they finally gave me an 800 number to call. The customer service representative casually said "oh looks like the installer quit. If you want to re-schedule, the next availability is next Friday". Seriously??? Nobody thought of calling the customers and reschedule when they knew that person couldn't make it? What kind of company does that? And when I told her I wouldn't be needing their service anymore and asked for a refund (yes they already charged my credit card weeks ago), she immediately became very nasty. I will never purchase any product or use any service from JCPenney ever again. And I suggest you do the same if you don't want to deal with this bs.

This is twice now that I order and get an email saying is has shipped, but don't come to the store yet for pickup as the full order is not in yet. Then that's it. You never hear again. You finally call the 800 customer service number and they say that some are shipped but not others and to contact the store directly. You then contact the store and they say that most of the order was shorted and that they will have to return it all and try to reorder with no guarantee you will get your stuff.
Okay, so why haven't I been notified for over 2 weeks about it, yet they charged my card immediately. They also had me give them my card number over the phone if I want to try to reorder.

What I was looking for/men's Under Armour shirts & pants individually wrapped of course. There was several to choose from but only 2 in the XXL sizes for bottoms/tops. I took all 4 packs (2 tops/2 bottoms thermals). The cashier in customer service location scanned the items but 2 wasn't scanning so she told me I couldn't get them. I told her just scan the other 2 that do scan. Went through and that should take care of that. She said no.
I ask for manager. The cashier associate explained to her what was going on and the manager told me they cannot sell me the items. They wasn't suppose to be on the floor and need to be returned to manufacturer etc. That they are putting up in season items and pulling all out season items. I said, "If that was true why did the other 2 go thru/scanned and put in the bag for me." She reply, "We cannot sell them." I told her this is the first time I've ever experienced this. It's not my fault it was on the floor/men's department for sale. Secondly if the barcode cannot be scanned just scan the other 2 that was exactly what I brought shirt/bottoms they are same prices. What is the problem. Others stores has done it and even gave me raincheck etc. I know it can be done. She said no.
I called customer service and the rep. listened as I explained to her and then she ask to speak with store associate/cashier. Then manager spoke only to get me back on the phone and say... THEY CANNOT SCAN THE ITEMS/2 SO I CANNOT GET THEM... I said it can be done as I explained and ask to speak with her manager...while I was on hold...the manager told me hang up after I was on phone 20 mins and says, "I will just scanned the other 2 items you already purchased." I was furious but glad she finally said okay. I knew they could do it and customer service could have too.
Customers are to get 100% satisfaction and I felt like I didn't get that. And I was willing to pay whatever for them and if it wasn't a bday and I didn't spend half my morning in other stores.

Unfortunately, it is with great disgust that I am writing to provide future shoppers a "heads-up" before they purchase ANY appliance from JCPenney. Their staff at the Deptford, NJ store, I feel do truly care for their customers. However, once you make your purchase you can expect to be left to fend for yourself. The people behind the retail store aka "customer care" do not care in the least as to what problems you may face with your purchase. Once they have your money they will do nothing to assist you in any way.
I recently purchased a washer and dryer from JCP only to have my home damaged by their delivery people. In an attempt to be an understanding customer I filed appropriate complaints and did not request anything further to be done regarding the situation. Once the brand new washer and dryer did not work properly I made the sound decision to request a return of the items. The staff at the Deptford store were completely understanding. Further, the staff agreed that a return was a completely understandable request and processed the return. I was advised that I would receive a call in 3-5 days to set up a pickup date and time.
After day 4 I received an email from "customer care" stating that they were not going to process the return. I immediately called JCPenney Deptford, to find out what the issue was. The staff have made various phone calls and emails and I am still in the process of JCP and its affiliates granting my return. I have been weeks without a washer and dryer and have been doing wash at my in-laws home.
As I stated before this company and its affiliates are there for one thing only and that is your purchase and hard earned money. Once they have that you can expect zero compassion and they will do NOTHING to assist you in any way. It’s sad that I have come to an online posting to discuss my issue; however, I feel for the next customer who is even considering an appliance purchase from JCPenney.

I did not check it other than to make sure it was the size I ordered and color.
Got home, took it out of the packaging and immediately saw a brown stain on the sleeve. I tried cleaning it the best I could. Looks like somebody dropped it in something or sat on it and ate their lunch. It's not worth my time to go back to the store and complain.

So if they start selling your item at a higher price they will ship it to the highest payer NOT you that paid a sale price. PLEASE DON'T ORDER ONLINE FOR JCPENNEY. GO IN THE STORE. Let them order it, the people running the online seem like they are trying to increase revenue for the corporate office because I got nothing but a person with bad attitude when I called corporate stating they can cancel at any time if the shoes aren't available. They don't have to alert me with prior notice.

I'm very happy with the stove and microwave hood I purchased from JCPenney, and though the installation team was friendly, the primary installer almost refused to install my microwave/hood until I showed him I had paid for the installation on my receipt. He had to use a large drill bit to enlarge a hole for the plug, and scratched the stainless steel door of the microwave with it, and dragged the drill bit across my kitchen counter, deeply gouging it. I did not complain or raise the issue because I've previously experienced retribution from JCPenney installers after complaining about the mess they made during carpet and vinyl flooring installation. I wish I could feel more comfortable about having installers in my home, I would remain a JCPenney customer. But this was it, no more major appliances from JCPenney.

J.C. Penney is an absolute joke. I ordered an item and after it having said “In transit to store” for weeks, I finally called them. An agent who sounded so monotone I could barely understand what he was saying stated I could get a refund before even giving me any other option to fix my issue or to repurchase said item. Keep in mind I just asked for the status of my purchase.
After hanging up and waiting another week to see if anything changed, I called again and either got another agent who hates his job or the same monotone terrible agent. (I work in a call center. No matter how much I “hate” my job I could never even try to sound this bored.) All I keep getting is the run around on getting a refund and that my item is lost. No one knows if I EVER was going to get notified of my lost package/where it is. I would not recommend J.C. Penney if it was the last store on this earth. Customer service is the base of a company, and you guys suck. Big time. I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Not impressed. I have shopped at JCPenney forever and I'm not sure I will continue after this past Christmas holiday season. Coupons they send out are worthless because everything you try to buy is excluded. Very frustrating. But, the lady in front of me really made out somehow. She put all her items in stacks of just over $25 and had about 8 to 10 stacks and the cashier let her re-use the one-time use $10 off coupon over and over again because she argued and said "I'm a rewards member". Well, so am I and they take my coupon after one use when I'm lucky enough to actually find something not excluded. Coupons state one-time use and surrender after use. They could learn from Kohl's in my opinion. You can use a coupon, percent off, rewards, promotions and anything else you might have all at once. I tried to use a gift card and coupon at JCPenney not long ago and couldn't because they only have room for one I was told. :(

Ordered a pair of sweatpants online December 2, 2018. Status showed shipped, shipper information not available for a month. Called customer service to find out where my sweatpants were at. First person reviewed the status and what she was seeing indicated that if I had not received it, it was lost. I had a choice of a refund or reordering. I took the refund. She asked me hold while she processes it and she hung up on me. I called back and got a second person who wanted to argue with me about why I was calling. The next day I see my refund notice and they did not refund the full amount. I have to pay the shipping on a package I did not get!! Sorry JCPenney, besides the crummy treatment from your customer service people, that just cost you a customer. Kohl's will gladly take my money.
