    December 26, 2015 I placed an order with Macy's. I got an email they canceled my order. I called and they said they needed to make sure it was me who placed the order. I said my credit card company already verified it was me and funds were released to them. They canceled the order anyways till they could speak to me from my home phone. Later that night a very kind, English speaking supervisor helped me. That was after dealing with two other smart mouth supervisors. I received my order and less than 2 weeks my order went on sale 440.53 less than I paid.

    I spent hours on the phone with people from the Philippines who could not speak good English and then promised a credit that never came. Tonight another 2 hours on the phone and I was hung up on because I ask for a supervisor. I will get my credit or Macy's will have the order back in a flash. Wake up Macy's. How many stores do you need to close before realizing you need to train your people on how to treat customers or Macy's will cease to exist and it will be your own stupidity that made this happen. Good luck to the executives getting another cake job. You will work like your Filipino employees.

    Macy's offers a full refund to the original credit card for purchases made on their website. When items are returned via mail, an email receipt indicates that the refund will appear on the original credit card. Then, weeks later, I received 2 gift cards with my refund from Macy's, completely different than what the email confirmation explicitly stated. The first time I called Macy's about this issue on 12/20/15, I spoke with Betsy, ID# ** and she said the refund would appear on my credit card within 10 days. It is now the 9th of January, and the money has not yet been refunded. I made a second call, and the operator I am now speaking with apologized and said Macy's are really busy because of the holidays and that the refund of my money has been held up. Not only that, but I have spent 1 1/2 hours on the phone with Macy's customer service, and counting. This is class-action lawsuit material.

    On December 10th, I ordered a Michael Kors handbag online for my mother for Christmas. I never received this order. It was shipped back to the merchant because UPS SurePost could not deliver my package on the second attempt. I called Macy's customer service and I was advised to reorder the same bag for the same price. The representative stated that I would receive a refund for my original purchase. In a few days I received this order through UPS on December 22nd. On Christmas Day, my mother opened her gift box. What was inside? A used Michael Kors bag. The handles are worn and torn. The interior has makeup stains and even a hair pin. Evidently, the bag is used. Visible wear and tear.

    This is absolutely absurd! No one should have to receive a used item, especially on Christmas Day! I have attached the images below. I went to the Macy's store the next day and exchanged the handbag for an actual new one. I have still not received the refund for my original purchase. It has almost been a month. I contacted Macy's through telephone three times and I have yet to see my account credited for $145.35.

    I made a purchase with my Macy's card at about 6 months ago and just like most everyone else here they messed up my payment. I paid my balance and a month later, got a bill for 2 dollars. I went to the store in Thornton Co and the lady in women's was rude and walked away as I was coming up to the counter so I had to wait for the other rep to finish with her customer. About 3 mins later a lady walked up and she ran back to the counter to help her and I was still there in line waiting. Me being an Asian man just wanting to pay my bill I felt she walked away because of my color and/or gender. All I wanted to do was pay my bill. I finally paid my bill and got a bill saying I didn't pay my balance in full. I explained I paid what I was told my balance was and I wasn't late so there should be no fee.

    They said they would take care of it. Then I got another bill for another late fee, again talked to a rep at the store. "Sorry, we'll handle it." Then another bill with a letter saying they have decreased my credit limit at their store because I have a balance that I haven't paid. Finally paid it just to have a piece of mind and not have to deal with them anymore. Now 2 months after I paid their so-called fees in full I got another bill for 2 ** dollars. I have called and canceled my account the rep on the phone, did waive the 2 dollars but should have been done a long time ago. Worst customer service EVER!!! AND THE BILLING DEPARTMENT IS A ** JOKE!!! I will never do business with Macy's EVER AGAIN!!! Worst company ever!!!

    I ordered a Tommy Hilfiger sweater on Christmas day and I got an email from Macy's that it "shipped" December 29th. It said my package would arrive in PA January 5th so I frequently went on the FedEx website to track it. But whenever I did it said "label has not been created for the package". I called FedEx thinking they lost my package and FedEx told me that Macy's NEVER SHIPPED IT OUT OR PUT A LABEL ON THE PACKAGE! I called Macy's and the lady told me that it was in transit and wait until January 5th. I waited and no package or tracking update on FedEx website. So I called Macy's again and the lady said "your package should be coming, let me track it." She was quiet for a few minutes and then said "ohh looks like FedEx may have lost it in transit."

    How about your people never put a label on it for my address or even sent my ** out. I requested my money back! She also said I could buy the same item, and when I did she said my card wasn't working? Really - the same card I bought the items with and went grocery shopping that same day. That was my first and last time shopping at Macy's. I'll go on Tommy Hilfiger website for the sweater or better yet Dillard's. Upgrade that website and customer service number and direct people to a live person!

    I logged into my Macy's Star Rewards credit card account to find out that I've a balance of $9000. It's been months since I made any purchases on my account. I sent a message through their pathetic website and I got a reply and when I open the message it's my original query about my balance. I then called their pathetic customer service and the representative told me that her computer is down and that she would call me back in 15 minutes. I never got a call. I called the customer service again after two hours only to be on hold of 30 minutes. So I'm currently on the phone waiting to talk to someone about my balance.

    I have twice discovered that my Macy's payment didn't even go through. The online system is terrible, and there is no notification of the customer when a payment has been scheduled, so the customer never knows until after the fact that the payment didn't go through. Also, it is impossible to complain about anything, because if one uses ANY character such as a comma or apostrophe, one is told that "special characters" are not allowed. How is it possible to provide a grammatical explanation without using basic punctuation? I was on hold for an hour today simply waiting to resolve the late charge and interest fee.

    I have automatic payment of the full amount due on the credit card due date. Apparently Macy's in an attempt to increase the revenue has now decided to not honor that and make payments late (purportedly because they changed the due date). Because of that I have had to write to them twice to first get late fee credited and am still awaiting a credit on the mistaken interest charges. I guess it is time to cut up the card and just use a non branded credit card.

    I order an item from Macy's online, only for the item to be later cancelled. When I called the number given, the customer service agent could not provide me with any explanation as to why. I was transferred to the consumer protection department where they would not explain to me the issue. I don't understand if there is an issue with me ordering online using my Macy's card, then why not explain to me the issue so that it could be resolved. The agent in the consumer protection department was very rude. She was the so-called supervisor but displayed no good manners at all. She basically told me that she did not have to explain nothing to me.

    Fast forward to today and my husband tried to order me a gift from Macy's online, and he faced the same situation. I am frustrated because I feel that we are being treated like criminals and unfairly targeted for reasons unknown to us. All we are asking for as long-time customers and of Macy's (check our ordering history) is for an explanation and for you to better customer service because your agents are rude and disrespectful.

    By mistake I bought two Macy's with two hundred on each instead twenty five on each. I went to the store located 3995 Foothills Blvd Roseville CA 95747. I explain the problem to one of the workers and she said, "You need to talk with the manager." I said ok. After waiting about twenty minutes, the manager called Vanessa appear and then I explained my problem to her and she started yelling me. She didn't use the professional tone and then I said, "You have to moderate your voice tone."

    She ignored me, and she said, "Call customer service." and she tried to write the customer service number in a paper that she got from the garbage. I said, "Don't worry I have the number in the receipt. I just want to know your name." And she started yelling me again and she said, "I hope you can't find solution about your problem." With these kind of manager I'm so scared to do my shopping in these store. Me and my family are customer from Walgreen for many years. Somebody has to take action against these kind of manager.

    Macy's agreed to refund the purchase for a mattress set (a substantial amount) that we found at another store. It was to be sent within 14-days - a little lengthy time period. After escalating to a supervisor, it became evident there is no escalation process nor a spec of customer service. Have never really been a fan of Macy's, but this confirms it. Will be canceling the Macy's credit card and will certainly not have a need to shop at Macy's in the future.

    Called Macy's about an order, but they couldn't help 'cause they stated that the product hadn't been received. The order was returned back to Macy's because of a bad address (Same address they used to deliver other items). Their website wouldn't take my address, so had to call and try to speak to someone who I couldn't even understand. Very poor phone quality with customer service, who I am sure was outsourced to some place like India. Still waiting for my order to be delivered. Was on hold for a very long time with no one at Macy's picking up. Overall a very bad experience with ordering anything from this company. Will not be doing it again.

    I ordered Mia shoes and Winter Sage Reebok shoes sized 8.5 from Macy's online and got the SmartPost shipping to save money. Little did I know this was not the way to go because I ordered my package on Nov. 30th and it says one was delivered on 12-4-15 and the other was delivered before then. However, to make a long story short I never got my sneakers, but the Mia shoes I (actually the person I ordered them for) did. They were delivered separately, but ordered the same date.

    When I spoke with Consumer Affairs the representative said all of my information with my address and tracking number was correct and SmartPost said it was too and was delivered to the person's apt. address. Though, the rep. said it was delivered to the correct address, I checked online with USPS to track the delivery and it stated it was delivered too. Then I checked weeks after and it said it was delivered to Indianapolis, IN and signed for. However, I live in North Carolina, so when I called Macy's and the recorder said my sneakers were returned to Macy's for a cash value. Therefore, my package was not delivered correctly and open and returned by a stranger in IN and I or the person I got the gift for, never gotten it.

    I have had a Macy's card for almost 40 years but only use it sporadically so if a bill does not arrive, I am not "looking" for it. I always pay my bill IN FULL as soon as it arrives. Last week--just 2 days before Christmas--I went to make a purchase and was put on the phone with a nasty woman who grilled me about who I was and why I was delinquent on a $27 bill. I told her I never received the bill and she seemed not to believe me. YES, I told her, I DO receive Macy's advertisements every 2 days or so, but I never received a bill. This conversation dragged on with a long line of customers in back of me. Finally, I just told her I would use a different credit card and hung up.

    This is the second time this has happened to me. All my other credit card bills reach me with no problem, but twice now when my Macy's bill was very low, I did not receive a bill only to find out months later that delinquent charges and interest were added and the bill is now sky high. The $27 charge was apparently made 7 months ago. How is it that all those sales fliers reach me with no problem, but I never received a bill or delinquent notice for 7 months in a row??? I think Macy's deliberately does not send out bills when the balance is very low.

    I was persuaded to purchase so-called Worry No more plan a few years ago. I was promised that I will get $200 Macy's credit if I don't use the service after 7 years. No mention that I need to file a 'CLAIM' to get the refund! I just learned that I am not eligible for the refund since the time elapsed 90 days after the 7 year period.

Furthermore, he refused to acknowledge that the shipment was in fact going to be delayed and when I asked to provide customer service feedback, he hung up.

    I purchase a queen Grand Plush Super Pillowtop from Macy's on November 30, 2015, after 2 weeks of use me and my husband were waking up with lower back pain and very uncomfortable overall. I call the company and a sales representative schedule a technician to came to my house to test if the mattress was defective.

    A few days after 12/26/15 the tech arrive and use their system to prove indeed my mattress was sinking 1/2 inch on my side and 3/4 over my husband side too. The mattress is over a Sealy box spring perfectly aligned over a firm tile floor, I use a water scale to test if was defective, is not. The tech call the company and report the mattress was factory defective, but that was over a box spring that wasn't the same brand as the mattress. So the sales rep said to me the warranty was VOID because of the box spring, not matter their mattress was defective. She said even if the sales person did NOT explained to me that I need it the same box spring under the mattress, still I will get no refund or even exchange.

    What kind of company is Macy's? How can you trick customers with such a ridiculous policies? Moreover omit to explained our rights base on their rules, so we can have a fair reimbursement? In resume we have no fair resolution with Macy's. We are stuck with this defective, uncomfortable mattress, waking up with back pain every day. I will donate it and buy a tested mattress from a quality company not Macy's ever again. Terrible customer service, satisfaction and worst warranty.

    PS: on Macy's website on Questions and Answers said "Does this mattress need/recommend a box spring?" The answer is "All mattresses require a box spring unless they are being used on a true platform bed. If you have any additional questions please feel free to call our toll free number." Does not specify it must be their box spring. We customers suppose to guess?

    On 10-18-15 I ordered Qty 3 Nike Power Epic Lux Dri-Fit leggings as the Stanford CA store didn't have any more in my daughter's size. I paid with my Macy's card. I received an email from Macys advising that the product was delivered to my daughter's address in San Diego on 10-23-15. I contacted my daughter. She didn't receive the merchandise. She checked with the apartment office, they didn't sign for the merchandise. I contacted Macy's in early November 2015 and told them that my daughter didn't receive the order. The person on the phone told me that the order would be reshipped.

    I contacted my daughter in mid-November. She had not received the order. I called Macy's again and the person told me that I was given incorrect information. They will not reship the order until they send a letter to my daughter with the proof of delivery. She will then have to call Macy's (after she gets the proof of delivery) and tell them that the signature is not hers, then they will reship the product. My daughter didn't receive the letter with the proof of delivery and she was leaving in a couple of days to come back home for the holidays (she is a college student).

    I called Macy's again and asked about the letter and my order. The rep told me the same thing, that the letter would be sent to my daughter and then she would have to call Macy's before they could resend the product. I complained and the rep put me on hold, then came back on the phone to state that the letter would be sent to my residence since my daughter was returning home and that once the letter is received, my daughter can call Macy's to have the product re-sent. It's been two weeks and still no letter, no merchandise, and Macy's has had my $300 payment since October 18th. I will have to call Macy's AGAIN. Unacceptable "service." I paid for the product, never received it, and they have been giving me the runaround since early November.

    I recall watching an old black and white movie years ago where Macy's referred a customer to Gimbals because they didn't have what the customer wanted. Those were the days of customer service. Today, Macy's has zero comprehension of what the phrase customer service should include. Talking to them on the phone is like watching paint dry. Getting the foreign speaking customer service rep to understand the issue is another matter and very frustrating. I was trying to track a package that was never received. My daughter ordered it but found it unacceptable to wait on the phone for an hour to speak with someone. So I pitched in. They tell me they can only speak to my daughter.

    Dear Macy's, You are the WORST!!! You are the worst at customer service. You have the worst, most antiquated processing systems. You have the worst online system; it's a joke. Let me explain; since when does a credit card bill you for purchased products with a total amount due by a certain date and when you pay the bill ahead of time, you still manage to get charged again the following month for some added finance charges? A poorly written credit card system that is not in favor of the consumer. Just think of how much money they are making by charging a few dollars here and there when consumers pay their bill in full!

    Call Customer service? Sure if you want to sit on hold for no less than an hour once you figure out how to select an option that will give you the ability to actually speaking to a live person.

    After the finance charge BS, I had boycotted Macy's for about 3 years, but in a moment of weakness I decided to purchase luggage for my daughter for Christmas. The order was placed on December 10th. When I received my confirmation, I realized that the ship date was December 17th. Seven days to ship! That is pathetic, but I figured I still had time to get the items in time. I received one piece of luggage on the 15th. On 12/18/15 I received an email stating that the other piece is now back ordered with no expected ship date. They would kindly cancel my order if it was not received by January 16th. Seriously? Once again I try to call Customer service. I sit on hold for over 40 minutes. Finally I get hold of a customer service rep, who then puts me on hold while talking to someone in the background in a foreign language. It was a total waste of my life.

    All I wanted to do was to cancel the piece that was back ordered and have the delivered piece picked up. I was told it would be 3 - 5 days for UPS to pick it up. My credit card would not be credited until the item was received at the warehouse. There was also the option of returning it to a Macy's store. Sure, let the consumer waste their gas because of Macy's incompetence. And let's not forget that I had to find luggage somewhere else, order it, pay for it again and hope it arrives before Christmas. I drove 25 miles each way to return the luggage on the 18th, after cancelling the other piece.

    The very next day my credit card was charged for the unavailable piece that had just been shipped. I tried calling customer support immediately to let them know I had already cancelled the item, but was hung up on. I called again Monday morning and was hung up on again. I will truly never step foot in a Macy's store again, even if I have to park miles away to avoid them. Thank you, Macy's!!! This was my last ditch effort. #donewithMacys, #Macysisworst, #feelbetterventing

    DECEPTIVE CREDIT PRACTICES. Similar to other stories on this site. Macy's gave me a credit card and promo discounts if I used their card on the day of issuance. Macy's issued a statement for my purchases on the same day they issued my card. I didn't receive the statement in time to pay without incurring late fees. Nevertheless, I paid the full amount plus late fees based on the next statement. However, even though I paid the full amount on the statement and paid before the due date, Macy's / Citibank added an additional interest charge from the date of the last statement.

    Unless you call and make a special arrangement to stop the interest accrual, YOU WILL NEVER GET OUT OF INTEREST ACCRUED FROM THE LAST STATEMENT DATE. Then Macy's / Citibank starts charging fees, since most people assume they have paid in full. This kind of predatory practice is illegal, but Macy's / Citibank count on most people to settle just to avoid credit problems. I am initiating a class action lawsuit against both Macy's AND Citibank and will post the website info here in about a week. In any event, please note that the Macy's / Citibank credit card uses illegal predatory practices for the sole purposes of earning illegal interest and late fee charges.

    This is the worst case of harassment by Macy's. I applied for a Macy's store card. The card was mailed to my home address and before the card reached me, it was stolen and someone made fraudulent purchases worth hundreds of dollars on my account. That was just the beginning of the problem. I have been following up with Macy's for the last 8 months and they have not taken any corrective action. Every time I call the customer service, I spend 30 min-1 hr on hold only to hear their standard reply that the case is pending investigation and will take 60-90 days to resolve. Meanwhile Macy's has reported the transactions to Credit Bureau and my credit history is ruined. I don't know how to get this resolved.

So, again, I clipped the UPC codes and sent this in using a totally separate form as required since they were under a different brand and I mailed this a few days later.

    I got an email from them regarding my Bella rebates telling me that I would be getting my $12 soon. I should have been getting $36! Nowhere on the form does it say "one per household" and in fact specified that you can use one form for multiple products within a brand. So, I started a chat session with someone from Macy's and they told me that it is only one per household. This is NOT true. Even the salesperson at our local store assured me it was not limited to one. So, then I tried emailing them and they kept insisting it was only ONE rebate. So I don't even think I will be getting a rebate for the Cuisinart products. And, there is no way to call their number and get a PERSON unless you press "1" to say you want to buy something even if you don't. I have always liked the quality of their products but I say to beware of their bait and switch rebates.

    First the product that arrived did not match the online image. I ordered a misses size and I was sent a plus women. Thinking it was an error, a representative resent another piece and that too was a plus size top that did not match the image. This was false advertising. Next I return all my purchase promptly printing their shipping label and receipt. They decide to send me a Macy's gift card instead of transferring my money to my credit card. As per their return policy, they should have done that. More calls, more holds and finally a rep helps and without questions asked transfers money back to my card. So much cheating. What a waste of my time! Never shopping again! Beware!

    I have been dealing with a Macy's mistake for over 3 months. I made a return by mail and I was supposed to get a credit back to my Macy's acct. Instead I was given gift cards and a certificate check. I've been calling in every two weeks and still I haven't gotten all the credit back to my credit card, and it appears as past due because of nonpayment, and it's ridiculous that every agent I have spoken to is so incompetent that I am still dealing with this situation. I will be contacting the Credit Bureau or an attorney to resolve this if Macy's doesn't do so. I can't make any purchases and my credit card is declined because of this matter. I have all proof if needed.

    Back in August I opened a Macy's card to purchase a few clothing items. One week later I returned all of the items, but apparently they were on our billing statement. So when I received the bill, I had already returned the items/no longer had them in my possession. A few weeks later, we received our bill which I dismissed since I had returned the items. Two months later, I was getting Macy's credit card phone calls for being past due. I was extremely confused, so I opened a statement from them. The $31.32 purchase was on the statement from August (that, like I said, was returned only a week later), along with TWO late fees. I was livid.

    I called them right away, of course only able to talk to someone with such a heavy accent I can hardly understand them. I explained how these items we returned, why am I getting charged for them and getting late fees for items I do not have?? I finally was able to speak with a supervisor who said since this statement went out before the return, I still had to make the payment and that I would be credited. Umm makes no sense. Just take the damn amount off my account. After being pissed off and complaining, she took off the two late fees also. So we paid the amount as we were told we would be credited. A week ago we got our latest $0 statement, but with no $31.32 credit. I called livid again. So now apparently my credited check was to be sent out on the 10th, so we are waiting for that to arrive. I had them close the account.

    Now recently, I used my mom's Macy's card to purchase an item not sure if I wanted it so I paid no attention to the price assuming I'd return it. She went to return it for me, called me asking why I added some $25 friends/sharing thing which of course was not returned to her card. I said, "I was not even aware of this, nor did the associate ask me if I wanted to do that!!" I had no idea what she was talking about. The girl who rang me up never said one word about it, just added the additional $25 to my purchase. My mom is currently raising hell in the store as I write this. So incredibly ridiculous. I cannot believe the issues we have had with Macy's.

    I was going to use a special promotion to buy items online. They qualified. Decided to add more items and the promo didn't work, was suppose to. Called Customer Service after hours (waited 15 minutes) and talked to some person I could barely understand and she couldn't understand me. Workers were laughing in the background. It was absolutely horrible. Had to give numbers of all items. Got off the call and received the order via email and the color was supposed to be blackberry and she ordered a black top. Then it stated I had to call within 15 minutes if I wanted something changed.

    So now it's 4 AM and I'm recalling them again, waiting for another 15 to 20 minutes to get someone to tell them I said blackberry, not black. What kind of place is this?

    I bought an item for 99.99 on Macy's website. I used the PayPal option at the online checkout. Item arrived, didn't fit, took it back to a Macy's bricks and mortar store. NO DEAL. PayPal cannot be refunded. Have to take a "gift card" for my 99.99. Sorry, don't want a gift card. Went to the store office and spoke to a "manager" who told me I would have to return the package to Macy's. I reminded her politely that we were both STANDING IN A MACY's. No deal, no refund. She explained there was a nationwide "glitch" in PayPal's software which makes it impossible for Macy's to do any refunds.

    Smells more like a scam to issue store credit thereby keeping my money. So, I went home, boxed up the item, took it to UPS and sent it off. Arrived, according to tracking, at Macy's warehouse 2 days later, and it has been 15 days, and no sign of a refund. 5 days ago I wrote to Terry Lundgren, president of Macy's have heard nothing. Want to know why he would offer a payment system that doesn't work for consumers, and keep it a secret. Opened a dispute with PayPal, have heard nothing there either. Guess I will have to hire a lawyer and sue them in court. I would like to put together a class action. If anyone else has this same problem, get in touch with me through this site. Anyone?

    I had ordered a Michael Kors Cynthia Medium Satchel a few days ago and the order completed without any complications. Then, I went to check the status of my order and, to my surprise, my item was on back order. I ordered the pastel color and I get an email saying that Macy's was unsure of when my item will come back in stock but they would hold my money until January 2016. Well, they cancelled my order on December 3rd without notifying me first. So I called and talked to customer service, Beth, and asked her about it... She looked up the item and said it's no longer available, and I asked if I could order in a different color and she seemed annoyed and told me Macy's would not be receiving anymore Michael Kors Cynthia Medium Satchels.

    I get off the phone with her and go back online to look up other purses and decided to call back to make sure the purses I was interested in was in stock before I ordered it. Beth answered again. I asked her to look up a purse for me and I gave her the web number of the purse, again, trying to see if the first time I spoke with her she just truly didn't want to help me. She looked up the purse number and told me it was in stock and I clarified about the conversation she and I had the first time she told me it was never coming back in stock, but here she is telling me it's in stock and told me the colors available. I chose my color and she said it will come back December 9 and I asked if I could place a back order for it and she told me no I couldn't... I was able to online, so why couldn't she do it for me?

    She told me she would send me a 20 percent discount for the purses... Umm the purses already had a 25 percent discount if used the code FRIEND, so she didn't help at all! I can't do it again online because the deal I got on my order for the purse the first time went from $348 to $213.67. Beth told me I could call back December 9th and order the purse for $213.67 that they would honor their mistake, which I highly doubt. I really love Macy's and shop there often and spend a lot of money there. I really wanted some clarifications from somebody who truly wants to help me, but I don't know if I want to go through the hassle again.

    Macy's promised me a 25 dollar gift card for inconveniences I experienced on an Anniversary gift I ordered for my wife (long story which led me to cancel my Macy's card). I never got the gift card. I was going to let it go because dealing with Macy's is a pain and not worth 25 dollars. So anyway I canceled my Macy's card, paid the balance in full, thought that was the end of it, right? But then I received another bill for about two bucks. Thought it was interest or some kind of fee, so I went online and again paid the bill in full. The end of it this time, right? No, again I received another bill for around two bucks, again I paid it in full. This time has to be the end of it right? Then again I received another bill.

    This time I was fed up, so I dialed Macy's up, spent over an hour on the phone with customer service trying to get to the bottom of these mystery bills. The Macy's Rep promises me that the balance is now adjust to zero and my card was canceled months ago and couldn't really explain why I kept receiving bills. Since I already went through the pain of dealing with customer service I decided to ask why I never received the 25 dollar gift card that was promised. After another twenty minutes on the phone, the Rep said there was no record of that promise, but there was a record I was going to receive a 25% off my next purchase (I get those discounts all the time in the mail). That was total BS. So Macy's Reps apparently are allow to lie to the customers and it's okay.

    I always paid my bill in full, never late and spent a lot there. NEVER. AGAIN. MACY'S. I hate Macy's customer service, their phone tree, trying to get a hold of a person takes so long and trying to get a hold of a competent person is impossible. I honestly don't hold anything against foreign workers, they need to feed their families too. But if your job is communication, then you should understand the language you are dealing in.

I kept ring with purchase tag on, in original condition. 17 days after purchase, I was looking for items on Macys.com and I saw that the ring had gone down in price by $112. I took ring and receipt to the store. I nicely stated to the fine jewelry employee that I would be returning the ring, because it had gone down in price. I told her that she could either resell it to me at the current lower price or I would simply order it online that day. Either way was no problem for me.

    First thing out of her mouth was, "you are returning it after 14 days." (I already knew about that ridiculous 14 day return policy, which is why I presented my situation to her in the way I did.) I repeated myself to her. I informed her I am returning the ring at the higher price and getting it at the now lower price. It would be up to the store if they wanted to make the sale there or if I simply go online. So, she called her supervisor over. Her supervisor does not greet me in any way and says to me, "this time I will make an exception, blah blah blah, 14 days, blah blah blah". That was so irritating!

    I told her that I am a customer and did not need a lecture on my purchase. I told her I would be simply returning the item and buying it online. Oh, no, she didn't want that. So, she told the salesclerk to ring me up at the sale price and she (supervisor) took off. She is in charge of that department and has zero customer service skills. Nothing magical about her attitude. Makes me not even want to go near the jewelry counter again or even go to the store for awhile.

So, now size 8M order is in the transit while the new order of size 8.5M is in queue. To add injury to insult, the new order has been charged at the original price without the discount. So, I called in again. Now they tell me, "We are so sorry, but there is nothing we can do. You can return the item once it is delivered and call us for refund."

    I placed an order online, then received an email stating that my order had been cancelled... I called customer service, and they stated that the "system" automatically cancelled my order because the information I entered was put on a block. She was "not at liberty" to tell me why I had been blocked. Poor excuse... Never going to shop at Macy's again.

    After my account was paid in full and I canceled my account, I continued receiving bills in the mail for $2.00. After several phone calls the initial fee was waived. All of this only to open the Macy's envelope the next month and find another $2.00 bill. I have tried no less than 6 times to contact customer service but always end up on the phone with someone speaking limited English who repeatedly tells me to "just pay the fee". This is criminal. Macy's should be charged with this scam and also be charged with the amount of people's time that they waste. My family (extended included) I will NEVER shop in Macy's again.

    I lost my Macy's American Express card in August and called for a replacement. After three attempts over two months to receive a new card (two of which they reportedly sent, but I never received), I gave up. In late October, a Macy's store card arrived, but not the Amex I'd requested in August. Finally, in mid-November, the new Macy's AmEx arrived. I then tried to add the card to the Macy's website to manage my account online and set up autopay, but the screen either freezes or it doesn't 'take' after I logout and log back in again.

    I've called customer service four separate times to fix the problem, but no one has been able to help. The last customer service rep asked me to create a new profile, which I did. The screen then froze and she was disconnected from me. I now have two separate profiles and the card still has not been added to my account. My husband and I estimate that I have spent a total of 5 1/2 hours on the phone with Macy's since losing my card in August. I simply don't know what to do anymore.

    Thanks for the 'bribe' money (50 dollars in Macy's cash)! About a week ago I bought an item with my EZ Macy's exchange card (store credit), and the register lady forgot to give me back my card (which still had a balance of 45 dollars). I realized a week later and went to customer services for help (I brought the receipt with me) and they found out that the SAME register lady used my card, because in the history of my card she stupidly used her employee coupon on a purchase. xD So the very nice lady at the service center gave me an extra 25 dollars in Macy's money, so that she could keep my receipt. I don't know what happened to that register lady.

    I had a very bad experience with Macy's customer pick up service. I had purchased a travel luggage and since we had additional shopping to do, the Macy's customer service rep suggested they can hold the purchased item and deliver it when we completed our shopping. They said it was as simple as calling them to deliver the item once we reached the first floor. I thought that was good considering we had more shopping left. After all the shopping I was on the first floor to pick up the one product that I had requested to hold and had to wait for 40 minutes to get the item delivered. It was a small item I could have carried it down with me but since my son was along with me and had some more items to purchase thought I would use this service.

    One of the worst experiences, had to call 4 to 5 times and they said it was on its way and I kept waiting. The manager was non apologetic, there is no care for customer's time and the way Macy's treated me by keeping me wait for 40 minutes is a perfect example of how Macy's treats their customers got a simple customer pick up service.

They have NO NUMBER to talk to a human in credit card services!!! You have to call and lie and act like you need to place an order and spend more money to even talk to someone and when you do finally get to talk to someone it's some lady in a 3rd world country (the Philippines) who speaks broken English and whom you can barely understand!!! So they take the 2 payments out immediately but in order to get payment back into my bank account then I have to wait 8 days... 8 days for the payment to clear!!! What!!! The money is out of my bank account and in the Macy's bank account!! HTF is that not cleared!!! Give me my money you took out without consent back!!! It's theft, no other way to look at it!!!

    Macy's have in charge of their phone customer service lots of Asian with thick accent which is hard to understand them. The company does lots of overcharge and on purpose hold on to the checks and not cashing them to charge late fee. Their answer if dont send a check pay at store. For the past few years I always used my macy's credit card and paid at least $150.00 a month. I was never ever late on my payment.

    Last night after returning Macy's customer service call, the lady on the phone who had no clue what she was talking was harassing me to pay by phone because they did not receive my November 8th payment. After explaining to her, I am not sure if she understood, I told her that a check for the amount of $200 was paid on October 27th. Her answer was lots of fraud is going on and maybe somebody else cashed my check and I should never pay Macy's by check. A few months ago again I had problem with Macy's and after calling them I found out I was charged twice for Thanks For Sharing. Still till today, they have not give me credit for the amount which was $25.00. I demand Macys put someone over the phone that could speak English and can be understood.

    I have had an account with Macy's for over 12 years. Recently they changed billing systems and due dates on accounts. I pay online and nothing was advised of the change via online prior to the change. Oct I went online to make my payment and the page I was directed to via their new online system, a late fee showed on the account, and 2 different due dates on the same page, the new due date on the top and the original due date below. At that time, I called into Credit dept. and spoke with Rona, a credit rep. She said there was a late fee charged for Sept. due to the due date change and she was approved to waive both Sept. and Oct. late fees. Rona spoke with her supervisor and they advised me to pay a specific amount online that day, less the late fees incurred. I did that immediately and she advised my new due date is now changed to a day early next month.

    I went online to check my account 10 days later and I have $50 of late fees on acct which increases the min payment due amount. I have also been receiving harassing collection calls for the late fee amounts they state they waived. I called in that day to Credit. They state the late fee credit has been applied but they apply the credit of the late fee towards balance due not towards fees charged and state I have been credited but I owe the $50 additional min amount due to bring my acct current.

    When late fees are incurred the credit should be applied towards the fee that is charged so it balances out and the fee amount does not continue to incur. I have spoken with 7 different credit reps who all state the same. I owe the late fees amount (even though it was credited) to bring my account current. My previous profession, was a credit and collections manager for over 8 years. I have decided to close my Macy's account not only due to their incorrect credit practices, but the harassment I have received overpaying the amount advised by their credit rep and then receiving harassing credit collection calls on the waived amount, and how Macy's is applying credits towards fees incurred.

    Macy's recently switched to a different company to handle their online payments, and since then I haven't been able to access my account or even view a statement. I stopped receiving emails about my statement for no reason a few months back, and I haven't gotten a paper bill since 2014 (though I never signed up for paperless billing). After hearing the horror stories about waiting on hold with customer service for hours, I haven't bothered making the call because I'm a busy person and I don't have time to wait for them to give me the runaround or hang up on me. I've tweeted my complaints to @Macys but all I get back are generic "So sorry you're having trouble, please email us!" replies, but I haven't emailed them because based on other angry tweets from dissatisfied customers they never email back.

    I just want to be able to pay my bill, which I know for a fact has been racked up with late fees because the last payment I was able to make was in July. I'm scared to look at my (already low) credit score because I know they've put a hit on there. Physically walking into their store to pay my bill would mean an hour commute via bus (there's two stores in my area and both are equidistant and time consuming to get to) and it's really not worth my time, especially considering every time I go I have a bad experience with their cashiers.

    I will NEVER shop from Macy's online EVER again. I have been dealing with an issue that should have been resolved in JULY. It is now NOVEMBER! I have never in my life dealt with such HORRIBLE customer service. Since July I have been on and off the phone with Macy's dealing with their HORRENDOUS customer service call line. For four months I was put on hold numerous times for over 40 minutes per call, I was transferred to over 20 employees - none of which could do anything for me. I was told lies by various employees and then later told by a different employee that what the previous person told me was untrue.

    An order I had purchased online was cancelled on Macy's end. I had used two Macy's gift cards to purchase this order. It has taken me 4 MONTHS to receive the $90.00 back in Macy's gift cards that should have been refunded back to me in July! I feel that if I would have not pushed this issue Macy's would have simply pocketed the $90.00.

    I am starting to wonder how many people they are doing this to on a daily basis? It is a scary thought. I know that I will no longer be a Macy's credit card holder, online customer or in store customer ever again. I will also be voicing my thoughts and personal situation to all of my friends, coworkers, and family. I feel that each and every person should be made well aware of this situation so that they will not have to go through what I have just gone through. Everyone should BEWARE of this poorly run company!!! My hope is that more customers see this reviews and think twice before ever shopping at Macy's.

    I have been a Macy's card carrying customer for years and although I don't make a lot of purchases with my store card, in the past, I've found it very easy to manage my account online. Until about two months ago... I'm not sure of the details but management of the online payments has changed. In August, I charged less than $300 to the account with the intention to split payments between two monthly cycles. In September, I received a statement notification via email (I'm paperless) and attempted to log in to set up my first payment of $150. When I logged in, however, the account home page told me that no payment was due but an old card number displayed.

    I tried to add my current card several times to my profile to no avail. I called the customer service line, which I generally avoid with most companies at all cost, and found that I could schedule a payment through the automated service - which also recognized my card number - so I did that. A few days go by and nothing from my checking account so I call back because my payment is due in 1-2 days. I'm told by someone in the customer service department that there is some kind of "system problem" and that I'm not the only person that has called but to check back in a few days. I ask her to note my account so that I'm not billed late fees.

    A few days past and nothing is drawn from my checking account so I call back. This guy tells me that nothing has posted and now I have a late fee of $30. He takes my payment by phone and tells me that the late fee will be waived. In October, I receive another email notification but still cannot access my information online (after several more attempts to add my card #) so I call in to make another payment. Except that my balance is $160, not $130.

    So I talk to yet another representative that does not speak English as a first language. She will take my payment but is adamant that I pay the full amount before she removes late fee. I say that I will not pay the full amount, I only want to pay the balance less late fee. She tells me that my payment has already been processed and that I will need to call in 30 days to get a check for the late fee reimbursement. It wasn't until I begged to talk to a supervisor that she found a way to edit the payment amount to $130. I asked her to make sure my account is closed. A couple days later, I have a withdrawal... for $103!!! I'm NOT calling them back, will walk my payment of $27 to the store, make sure this is closed and never shop there again.

    In early December 2014 I placed an order for bedding as a Christmas surprise joint gift for my husband and myself. I used 2 gift cards that I received for fundraising for March of Dimes and my mother put the remaining $20 on her visa so that my husband would not know. There was never any mention of the item being backordered. I was getting anxious as Christmas got closer that it would not arrive and I finally received a notice that it was backordered. I ended up printing out a picture and wrapping it.

    January rolled around and another notice. I called and stated I still wanted it. I received an expected ship date for February. At the end of January I got a notice that the order was cancelled. (Meanwhile the bedding was still being sold on the website without an *item backordered* note). I emailed and they said the credit card declined. I think a number might have been wrong and instead of contacting me they just cancelled it. When I tried to change the credit card or talk about the order they would not speak with me because a small part of the order was put on my mother's card they had to talk to her. She called. They reissued the gift cards and said they would send the bedding after they received the new gift cards - they were having them sent to the lady in customer service to "expedite" the order.

    Once they got the gift cards... Bedding backordered again. Again my mother had to call and speak with customer service for my order. They said they'd hold the order until April. Still no bedding. Eventually the order got cancelled again and I said fine, just reissue the gift cards. They said it would take several weeks. In August, still no gift cards. I wrote and they were apparently issued. I gave it a few more months and in the beginning of November I emailed that I still did not have my refund via gift card. A week later I got a shipping notice for a gift card. We will see if that ever arrives. It has been almost one year since I placed my original order. Macy's has the absolute worst customer service. The hassle they caused just trying to get what is due to me is absurd. I will spend my gift card if I ever receive them and never shop at Macy's again.

The associate claimed my card was not working. I had several with me so handed her another card, again she said the card is not good. I stepped aside, called the number on the card, spoke to a person at the Electronic Gift Card Department.

    Macy's new policy is to re-issue old cards before they can be used. This problem has been not resolved after 4 months of numerous calls to the Gift Card Department. My cards are worth $2100. All employees claim my cards have been approved months ago but due to the amount of business, it will take months more to send the new cards to me.

    I have called weekly, employees have spoke to the supervisors, supervisors have reassured me that the problem will be resolved in a few days. Three times I have been told a phone call will be returned in a few days resolving this problem. Even with ID numbers and names, other employees claim they can not find the person, etc. I am so frustrated and disappointed with Macy's. Recently called the Corporate office only to listen to an answering machine. Left my name and phone number asking for a call back as soon as possible.

    Why would I ever think the Corporate Office would care. As of this writing no respond from Corporate. I am a honest person with feelings, Macy's you have $2100 of my money.

I had repeatedly told him when I was on line, my account had said I have a 0 balance. This was all taken care of on Nov 6. So upon checking my account on Nov 8, not only do I have a balance but it has grown to a larger amount owing on my store purchases. Oddly, the same amount he took off the Express part is now on the store. What is going on with this billing department? I will no longer shop at Macy's. Do not get sucked into their credit cards.

The rep told me that it will take 7-10 business days to have the money back. So I wait 2 weeks. However, the money had not refunded by then. Then I called again and asked to speak with a supervisor, but refused by a REP. She said she will make sure it will be refunded in 10 business days, because she processed the issue again. But another 2 weeks passed, my money is still nowhere.

    Macy's has a practice of charging its credit card customers $2.00 a month as a service charge after you have paid them in full. This has happened several times. I paid them in full back in Aug 2015 and didn't open any bills they sent because I knew it was paid off. My bad. Then I finally look at the mail, thinking it was an advertisement and I found a past due bill for $6.00. So the first month they charge $2.00 then apparently it is 100% of the $2.00 every month you have not paid. No other creditor that I have ever done business with has charged their customers for paying off the credit card. I will not be shopping with them anymore and I will be telling everyone about this practice. SHAME ON MACY'S FOR POOR CREDIT PRACTICES

    Macy's gives out a credit card and on the back it has a customer service phone number. When I dial the number on the back of the card it offers a few options and of course none of those options apply to my situation so I need to talk with a live person and there is no option to do that. The stupid system just keeps looping the same stupid few options or allows other options that do not cover my situation so I can't select any of them. So after about 15 minutes of trying to get a live person on the phone I give up and now I have to wait until I get home to my computer to google "live person at Macy's" in order to talk with a live person.

    So I'm home and I get a phone number from google and I call the number and now I ask to talk with a supervisor because before I discuss my original issue I want to complain because their customer service number on the back of the card does not lead to a live person. When a regular customer service person answers I tell him/her I want a supervisor and they transfer me to a phone number that just rings and rings and rings with no answer or a supervisor answers and fakes like they can't hear me.

    I attempted to purchase an egift for my mother's birthday. It seemed like a great way to purchase a personal gift and ensure arrival on the day of her birthday. Be warned - Macy's is currently completely inept at handling this aspect of its business. If you place an order, you receive a confirmation that says if you make a mistake in the email address, you can respond to change it. This is not true. Later that day, you will receive a phone call from the "fraud" department. They will have no information on your actual order and put you on terminal hold. Even though I confirmed the email address with them, they kept me on the phone for 45 minutes and cancelled the order anyway. I tried again the next day... same thing again.

    I complained to Macy's directly and they demonstrated incredibly poor customer services (e.g., another 45 minutes on the phone, one employee hung up on me when I asked to speak to a manager). This has been an incredibly frustrating experience, and thanks to Macy's now I barely have time to purchase a new gift for my mother.

I seen 3 women on the floor and 1 gentleman, but they were looking like they were working but they were just standing around. So I left and went to Century 21. I have spent thousands of dollars in Macy's and I don't appreciate how I was treated. But before I stop coming to one of my favorite stores, I thought I just let the company know my experience. I hope you can find someone willing to help the customer. Thank you.

    Last summer I purchased a gift certificate online for $50. I did not receive a bill, and I sent a $25 payment. I was sure I had paid it off by Sept, and tried to log onto the website, but kept getting a message to contact customer service. I had receive a flyer from Department Stores National Bank during the summer, so I knew they had my address.

    I called Customer Service and told them I was unable to log in, and the woman, who was foreign & the line was static-y, said I owed $92. I told her that couldn't be right, and she kept repeating that I owed that amount and talked over me, refused to agree to send me a paper bill or to let me speak to a local representative or supervisor. She didn't listen to anything I said. I hung up on her, and when I received an email from a VP of Macy's apologizing to all customers for what amounted to poor service, I called the 800 number in the email, and got another foreign-speaking woman, who transferred me to another person, saying I could request a paper bill. Instead I got another foreign speaking woman who said she was going to try and help me log in.

    I complied, and she said she was sending me a temporary password. It never came, so I told her I've had it, that I was going to write to the attorney general's office in Ohio, and that I want to close my account. I told her Macy's is the worse company I have ever dealt with, bar none. Now, I'm being charged with $92 for a $25 bill, and forced to pay it because of their poor business practices. I also wrote a letter to Department Store Nat'l Bank and did not get a response, which is unheard of, even though they say they will respond in 30 days. Worst company ever. I just want to get rid of them.

    I bought a $250 gift card after seeing men's suits on sale at Macy's at 20% off. I put it in my cart and went to go pay. However, after the last step it said that they were not available! I called customer service to complain but basically confirmed that they were not available and got the runaround from them. How do you put several suits available on your website when they really aren't? Now I am stuck with a $250 gift card and no sales! I need to work with someone at Macy's to get this resolved.

    Macy's has charged me two late fees due to their system outage and their telephone representative's inability to input the correct routing and banking information associated with my account. In addition, they play the pass and hang up game when you call requesting clarity or a resolution to your concerns. Telephone calls are put on hold for more than 30 minutes and promises are made to customers that Macy's have no intentions of fulfilling.

    It started off with Adrian the supervisor of Crabtree Valley Mall honoring me a 25% off on Michael Kors watches, since the last associate I bought a watch from didn't tell me when the sale was going to be over. Well, I'm a huge Michael Kors fan and the sale had ended the day before the 19th when I went. When I went to Crabtree I told Leslie, I believe it was, that I was there to get 25% off. She said I can't. Now I was informed by Adrian that she would tell the associate that I was disabled and coming to get a watch for 25% off. I told her the manager said I can, can you go ask her. From the beginning her attitude was very RUDE to me. She came back shortly from the corner and said okay. I don't know where she went, but was the manager around the corner because she came back quickly.

    I told her I was ready and wanted to see a watch. She wouldn't take the watch out on top of the counter, as if I was going to steal it. I asked her 3 times if I could see it and then with an attitude she slowly took it out. I tried it on and she immediately said that's a woman's watch. I didn't ask for her opinion. I said no it's not. I like it and it has a big dial. Then she said if you wore it everyone would know you're wearing a woman's watch. I was shocked because she knew I was gay at that moment because she told me all the watches in the counter were for woman's. Then she pointed at huge men's watches, which were on the counter and said those are the only men's watches. She had an attitude.

    I stuck up for myself and said noooo, I like this watch, I don't care if it's a woman's watch and said I'll take it. I have flower tattoos on my hand and a clover. I have a moon with a flower and a sun with a flower on both sides of my ears. I have a clover with wings, which say true love. I had a jacket on, but those are the tattoos she saw. Obviously, she knew I was gay, but I don't know if Adrian told her I'm mentally disabled. Oh, I also have many diamond piercings on my face and ears. Then I told her I was going to buy three and she no I can't. I asked her to ask the manager. She went to the corner again and came back quickly. She said in a low voice and said, "I have to call security because I don't want to lose my job." I was like what the Hell does that mean? I picked out three watches quickly.

    Then she went to the register with the watches and asked for my license. She took it to the register and asked how I was going to pay. I said by credit card. She took my card to the register, she rolled her eyes at me. She came back with my credit card and I tried to get it because normally they hand it to you. Well, she put it into the chip insert and even took it out for me, which was unnecessary, especially she wasn't very pleasant. I had taken off my jacket at that time. I showed all my gay tattoos. She slightly glanced and acted weird. At the end of the transaction I politely said, "Can you give me your full name and associate ID." She wrote her name down and told me her ID was on the receipt. She wrote thank you on the receipt, but never mentioned anything verbal, just did the transaction. At that point her attitude changed to worried.

    I got out of Macy's and immediately complained on the phone and it was Adrian I talked to. She was extremely nice and comfort me. I talked to her for about a hour. I cried with a broken heart while talking to Adrian. She was shocked that it really was a horrible hate crime. She told me she was going to send me $50 of coupons. We hung up. That night I cried and couldn't sleep. My mom comforted me by giving me a hug and telling me that don't let this make you lose by crying. I love my parents. I was depressed for 2 days and I'm also diagnosed with major depression, so that event set it off. It's people like her that make people commit suicide. What if I committed suicide because of her? What would you do then.

    After friends told me that I'm getting paid off to shut up with coupons worth $50 and I found out they expire in December. That day could never be erased and I view people different now. She probably is denying everything and just got a slap on the wrist, while I suffered. I'll let you know I get $813 in disability checks a month. I have to survive on that. The reason I can have some hobbies like saltwater reef tanks and collecting Michael Kors watches is because I live with my parents and they take care of me. I can never in my life survive alone without help. I'm going to have to pay $30 copays for my doctor even though I have Medicare. Sometimes $100, which I struggle to afford. I currently only have $3900 to survive.

    Now, do you see I can never survive financially nor mentally by myself. Once my parents die I'll probably die with them. I'm happy to say I'm gay and disabled because of that horrible lady. I got a disabled with heart wheels as a tattoo on my hand because I don't want to be ashamed of myself anymore. All I ask is for Leslie to pay for the three watches I bought that day. I want her to remember what she did to me. I will never step into Crabtree Valley Malls Macy's ever again. My friends and family won't either for me. That horrible person is lucky I'm not mean and don't tell the gay community and various blogs about the situation. Oh, please fire her. I also think customer service is horrible at Crabtree.

    I told Adrian they really needed training and she shocked me by saying, "You know what it is the associates just get used to it." That means this topic was already recognized and ignored! Please allow me to forget, but not erase the past and let me look and wear the 3 watches. I haven't opened the boxes since that day. Please believe me and do the right thing. I really did suffer from this hate crime! Please contact me via phone and e-mail. I want to know what's going to happen. Please contact me as soon as possible as I will be waiting for a response. Tonight I will be up until 1am EST, so you may contact me.

    Never thought I would be treated so poorly as a Macy's customer. I made a purchase for $15 in the first week of June. I had a Macy's American Express card, which I requested be cancelled. They sent me another card but did not include any information about the amount due. Between June and November, I received no statements, emails or calls about a pending balance. When I checked in July, I couldn't see any pending balance, so assumed there was none. This morning I get a call and was on the phone with an incredibly rude representative.

    Basically, they told me they had "tried" to reach me via email (and I never received any notification from them - yes, the email account is active and valid, and no, there were no emails in the inbox or spam folders!!) and that they were not responsible that I did not know about a pending balance. With no information from them, I have now discovered that I have a $145 balance, thanks to their late fees and interest, which I didn't know were being added on. I'm most disappointed and disgusted that such a large institution would treat their customers so poorly. They've lost a loyal customer in me and I will make sure I tell everyone I know about their terrible service!

    I just received my new bill after having paid off my account. There was a $2.00 "Fee" on the bill and I tried to call about it. First off three numbers called and ZERO way to speak to anyone. POOR!!! Second, when I queried my account the recording stated that payment was received on Oct 17th, a full three days prior to the payment due date. Something the recording reminded me to not miss to avoid interest. Third the $2.00 was immediately waived again by recorded message which makes me believe the charge was bogus and placed there only to get most people to make an extra payment. I am done with Macy's forever and suggest others take the same stance to avoid them "accidently billing you incorrectly."

    When I was ordering some jeans online I clicked checked out for the first total of $43.86. Then after I entered my shipping information, they changed the estimated tax and the total was changed to $44.98. They always change the price one time after you put in your address so I expected that to happen. I thought $44.98 was the last price change. Instead, right after I placed my order, the price changed again. The page said "thank you for placing your order, your total is $45.40." None of the other online retailers I've used have ever raised their price after I placed an order with them. I think this is a dishonest way of doing business.

    We have been customers of Macy's for years and they are honestly my favorite store when it comes to style, quality and overall being in touch with current fashion. Now, that being said, I would rather drop dead than use my Macy’s card even if they offered me 50% off and I am a Plenti member! This final rollout of their online pay system did it for me! I rarely use my card after the first rollout to American Express because they must have gone cheap! With that roll out we saw the same issues. And when you went into the store (which we did) they put the wrong amount on the wrong account and then dinged our credit for the courtesy. Then during the recession American Express decided to lower our limit by a ridiculous amount.

    Now with this rollout, they have obviously gone cheaper! It's been two months since I have been able to even see my balance for the store account and when I called and paid. Then on the second month I asked for a supervisor and was promptly hung up on! I will be shopping at Stein Mart from now on. I don't think they realize that they are killing their 50 and under customer base! I just got my new cards, activated them to not kill my credit and promptly put them in a safe! My hats off to them!

    On September 9, 2015, I called Macy's, asked for my balance and then I paid my bill in full online the same day. I had not used my card until this past weekend and when I called today to pay my bill in full, I was told that after the payment was made, my account would be back in "good standing". When I questioned Justin why my account wasn't in good standing, he said it was because I had not paid the $6.18 that was added after I paid my account in full. He asked me if I wanted to speak with someone in the credit department and I said yes so he put me on hold and I was on hold for over 20 minutes. He then informed me that I couldn't speak with anyone in the credit department until 48 hours has passed. Not a happy person with Macy's.

Called again only to be put into the merry go round of your awful phone system, gave up a few times then finally called and got to talk with an agent. I was then told 7-10 business days I'd have to wait. Unacceptable! Asked for a supervisor (waited 20 minutes for one) who then told me 10-15 business days!!

That is over a month from when the items were shipped back to you!

    I opened an account with Macy's approximately Feb. 2014. I ran into some financial issues and had a few late payments. Finally in June of this year, I was able to pay off the account in its entirety. Immediately, Macy's decreased my limit after I paid off the account without warning, to $100. So I decided to practice discipline and not use the card until needed. I tried to use the credit card today for a mere $54.00 and was told the account was closed due to inactivity. Again, I was not previously advised and I feel this is unprofessional customer service practices.

    For the most part, I tried to maintain contact with Macy's when I had payment issues in the past and did my best to make them a priority and paid them off and made the account whole. I feel it's very contradictory of them to close my account when I was doing my best to be responsible and not overindulge and misuse the credit card and get myself in a bind as I had did before. I feel like they were very abrupt in their practices and very unprofessional to not advise me that my account would be terminated. When I called the service number, the automated services clearly states I have no balance and a $100 credit limit. But when I spoke with the obnoxious representative, I was flat out told my account was closed due to inactivity and I have to reapply to get another Macy's account. I don't think this is fair business practice and I believe termination was unwarranted.

    How is it possible that a large company like Macy's has such terrible customer service and so little concern over a potential security breach? Let me start by saying my credit score is excellent - over 800 - and despite having my personal data hacked via Chase bank, T-Mobile, Target and the OPM, I have managed to evade the identity thieves so far. So given my excellent credit history, I was shocked when I discovered a few days ago that Macy's had lowered the spending limit on my card to $100!! Ninety minutes later, after speaking with no less than 4 unhelpful, unconcerned, and unknowledgeable reps on the customer service line, I was accused by a male rep in the credit department of being some kind of deadbeat; either that or I had been hacked.

    So I printed out all 3 credit reports and scores. All was fine, which I already knew since I am currently being monitored free of charge for up to 3 years thanks to the irresponsible companies mentioned above. Called Macy's back today to try to figure out what happened on their end. Waited 20 minutes to talk to a woman with such a heavy east European accent that I could barely understand her. I ended up canceling the card because she made no sense, could not comprehend my issue, and advised me upon my request that it would take a manager 30 minutes to get to my call. Good riddance. I will drive a little farther to shop at Nordstrom, a company that takes customer experience seriously.

They are always saying that you should sign up for a Macy's card never telling you that if you don't pay your bill on the date it has on there you should expect to pay more because of interest. They never have the things that you need to where they tell you that they have the amount you need they have it in mass quantities but when you get there they tell you they have looked all over but can't seem to find it for you asking if you want to order it. Why would I want to order it if I came all this way to take it home with me but you don't seem to have it. If that was the case instead of wasting my time coming here I could've stayed at home and order it from home. When I pay off my card which isn't a lot I plan on going to the Macy's I shop at and cut the card in front of their faces.

Apparently they don't think we have a right to request this service of person to person communication.

    I was stationed on the island of Guam while active duty and the wife opened a store rewards card. What the representative didn't tell us was they also added a American Express credit card on top of it. Due to the card having only one number I as a responsible adult paid to it as were doing a military move instead of going into store to pay off the card. What we didn't know was that the payments went to the credit card where we had a money sitting there and the charge card showed debt. Upon arrival last year to Washington state we found this information and requested they send the payments from one to the other. What was done was they sent the credit from the American Express as a check to our Guam PO box. Due to our not being on Guam we couldn't get access to the check.

    When we requested that they cancel the 1st check you would assume that they do that and then credit the amount back. No the check was canceled (more later) and we were charged for the full amount of the 2nd check which they started hounding us to pay as it was considered a debt on our part. As it was affecting my wife's credit I paid off her debt as they said they would clear the credit score hit.

    People on Guam were nice enough to forward our mail to us and when we received the original check which had a different check number we were told go ahead cash it... When cashed I was hit with a canceled check charge by my bank and we are still out of the 367 dollars and some cents. My wife has been calling to clear this but we have been bounced around. I don't normally complain but the company has had a callous response to our requests for the matter to be investigated.

    In August, my credit card information was compromised. Luckily Macy's caught it and immediately shut the account off. That has been the only good part of my experience with Macy's. Since then I've been trying to send them the documents the request (statement of fraud). I've faxed it 3 times now, they have yet to document receiving them! I faxed it on August 18th 2015, confirmation at 1 PM. What kind of a world are we living in where after 2 months of faxing, they still can't confirm receipt?

    I end up having to wait for 30-40 minutes before I can get to a human, last week the rep tells me they changed their fax number! Although they're supposed to be able to get it from the original number - 1-800-417-2698 now there is a NEW NUMBER that they magically forgot to put on their forms. Fine, I faxed it, TWICE. I called again tonight, waited another 40 minutes on hold, they still can't confirm receipt of these documents. Apparently they went through a software change and are backed up processing logs. I can't login in online due to this software change either. They're a mess, This is by far the worst experience with a credit card company I've ever had. I'm going to go ahead and pay the minimum on charges I didn't make, just so Macy's doesn't destroy my credit. I hope this situation is resolved soon.

    I had this issue with my Macy's credit card account when I already paid for it online on 9/29/2015 after received the bill from Macy's on the same day. Then I keep seeing emails saying I didn't pay that amount and when I came back to macy's account I can't log in with my card and they said my credit card already had another holder account. Rubbish!!! I keep calling in for customer service people to help me out. I spent almost 2 hours on the phone because they kept transferring me to 6 different people. The last call was with someone who I can never understand her English and I had no idea, is it my phone or is it her intention to hang up. I only know that I will not owe any late fee for Macy's credit card, but never solve my problem on how to log in and manage my Macy's account online. Now I will call back to cancel all my account. No more headaches.

    I have been a loyal Macy's customer for over 20 years! I decided to start receiving my monthly statement electronically! I've had numerous problems with receiving monthly statements! I depend on these statements to pay my monthly bills! Throughout this year I have not received my statement 3 times. It sure is funny that I receive the statement the next month to let me know that my balance is overdue and they have charged me a large late fee! Then on top of that turned me into the credit bureau because my payment is late! I called the billing center and they are no help. I also can hardly understand the person I'm talking to! Nothing gets acknowledged on the phone call but a note in your file. Macy's fail at customer service. I am furious with Macy's that they are getting away with this.

    Good grief... I returned two separate orders (3 total items) in one box on August 17th, and almost two months later, I still have not received a full credit of the merchandise on my Macy's account. A couple of weeks ago, they processed one item on my return. Instead of crediting my account, they send me a gift card. I get back on the phone to see what happened with the rest of my returned items and to see why my Macy's account wasn't credited. I was on hold for 20 minutes before I ever spoke to a rep. I informed her of the problem and was then on hold another 20 minutes while she filed an investigation with the warehouse and worked out the crediting issue. No happy ending as the issue was still not resolved...

    Another call was warranted when I checked my Macy's account and found late payment fees instead of my merchandise credits. The only balance on my account were these items that I was trying to return. Macy's said that they would take away the late fees but I still needed to pay $65 to bring my account current. Ah... but I wouldn't have a balance if you'd processed my returns in a timely manner. This just means that Macy's is getting more of my money and I don't owe them a dime. And then I discover that they did process my returns - in the form of electronic gift cards... Again! Back on the phone for another 40 minute conversation. This ordeal was frustrating enough to make me close the account altogether. The account rep wanted to make sure that I knew that I could not reopen the account if I closed it. I asked for that particular Macy's guarantee in writing!

    Recently I moved and therefore need to change the snail mail address for my Macy's credit card account. I called Macy's twice and was unable to get a human being on the phone. I then tried calling the corporate office, got voice mail, and then got a message telling me the voice mailbox was full. At the corporate office! I then filed a complaint via the Macy's website and listed my email address, so Macy's could follow up with me. That was two weeks ago and I have heard nothing from Macy's. I'm trying my best to be a good customer, but Macy's is doing nothing to support my efforts. If I can ever reach a human being, instead of updating my snail mail address, I will cancel my Macy's credit card account. Just ain't worth the hassle.

    Macy's uses predatory and deceptive business practices when charging late fees and over limit fees. I made a 100.00 payment on a 123.80 balance due 9/22/2015. Made payment online 9/21/2015. Macy's posted late fee on 9/22/2015. Have asked via online statement contact site to have these fees removed. Not the 1x this has happened. Ask for refund pointing out new credit card laws of 2008 and I am ignored. Since they went from Meier and Frank to Macy's they have become retail crooks/thieves holding account holders hostage by charging fees when consumer is trying to get acct paid off. Macy's needs to be closed down for fraudulent practices. STAY AWAY FROM MACY'S.

    I was on Macy's website and the sale was suppose to end on on Oct. 4th, 2015 which should of ended at midnight, but I was on the website at 3 or 4 am, in the morning. Went to check out online and was going to put my promo code but stopped for a moment to make my husband's lunch, then went back on the site and noticed they stopped the sale. So I call customer service and they couldn't honor those prices but gave me a 20% discount, which was not even close to the amount in my cart.

    I'm disappointed that the fact that the sale should of ended at midnight, not 4am in the morning. I would of liked them to have honored the sale and the amount in my cart. Then they could of told me "our sale would run past the 4th at 4am" then I would know next time to place it sooner. I thought the sale would of ended at midnight, but got on the website and the sale was still going on. I was not very happy with that. I love to shop at Macy's and I have always had great customer service with them, but was very disappointed this time. Hope this helps others, when to know when the sale actually ends!

    Plenty of ONE STAR ratings say it all! I wish I had NEVER signed up for a Macy's Credit Card, so here is my tip if you MUST shop there (for me it is a LAST resort, after trying EVERY other store in town.) When you make a purchase using a Macy's card, IMMEDIATELY use your Debit Card to pay off the purchase. I recently learned this was an option (they often have lower prices ONLY if you use a Macy's card.) Before I caught on to this trick, my bill would often be incorrect and when I paid an incorrect balance they shock me with outrageous fees which lower my PERFECT credit score, not to mention having to deal with rude and dismissive telephone representatives - no wonder, they are probably treated as badly (or worse) than the customers. STAY AWAY!!!

    I have a $13.77 charge that I have been trying to get removed. This was the discount amount of an item I had shipped to my home. I returned the item. So this $13.77 discount should be a wash. All Macy's employees I have spoken with have agreed with me. No problem there. But each time I call the credit dept. and speak to someone, they assure me they have taken it off. When I call back 24-48 hours to recheck my balance, it continues to still show this amount.

    I called Oct. 2nd and spoke to Jim. He "skewed" the notice to get this amount taken off. He told me to call back Mon. to be sure it was. I called back Monday Oct. 5th and the charge was NOT taken off. I spoke to Mami this time and she assured me she got this amount removed. No problem. "Your balance is now zero" she tells me. I call back Oct. 6th to check balance and NOW my balance has INCREASED to $27.54! Mami ADDED $13.77 to my charge account instead of REMOVING IT!

    I call the credit dept. today, Oct. 6th and speak with Roxy. She tells me of this mistake Mami has made. This time Roxy assures me she has removed ALL charges and she will mail me a confirmation on Thurs. Oct. 8th. My bill has a due date of Oct. 12th and I DO NOT want to be charged interest rates on this amount that should not be there in the first place. I am SO frustrated! I should not have to be spending this much time dealing with such issues.

    I make my payments online the 2nd of each month. When I went to use my American Express (Macy's), it was declined. Later, I received a new Macy's card, when I went to activate the card, I was informed that I had not made a payment for the month of September. This is why American Express from Macy's was declined. Then, I find out Macy's had sent my account to a collection agency after being ten days late. I made a payment to them for the month of September, even though I thought I had already made the payment.

    After making the payment, I went on my smartphone and checked my account, sure enough I had made the payment for September. I contact Customer Service and find out they had sent my payment to my old account. I did not know I had an old account since I have only one account. Apparently, Macy's decided on their own to activate the new card and closed my old account, even though I had not yet activated the new card. After speaking to six people over a two hour period, they just could not figure out what to about returning my second payment for the month of September. No one at Customer Service listens or takes notes. Each person you speak to wants you to repeat your story over and over again.

    I finally contacted corporate headquarters, they did some research and sure enough they had made the mistake, not I. I asked for the second payment to returned to my ATM/VISA card. They stated it was not possible, Macy's wanted my routing number and checking account number. I pay online, I do not have any checks for the last five years. Since they took my payment with my credit card over the phone, why couldn't they return the second payment to my same card? I finally received my refund with a check mailed to me yesterday. This is not the first time Macy's had made a mistake. You have to spend hours and days to have the situation corrected. I will no longer shop at Macy's.

    I have been a loyal customer with Macy's since 1997 and at this time I would like to make a formal complaint in regard to the customer service and the new online service of the company. The account online services have been down for several months and I have been unable to access my account online to view my statements. I tried calling customer service to inquire about my account and was redirected and placed on hold for an extensive amount of time (for more than twenty five minutes) before I was finally able to get in touch with a customer service representative, only to be told that I had missed payments. This was a surprise to me as I was not aware of any missed payment as I never received any bill prior in the mail.

    I explained that I was calling because I made purchases and wanted to pay it online as I usually do, only to be told that I had two missed payment. I paid the balance in full with the representative by telephone and she credited the account for the late charges but not the interest, as a courtesy. However I was never informed that my account was reported negatively on my credit report until applied for a credit transaction and was declined due to the negative impact by Macy's. In all my years, I have never been declined for credit until today.

    I tried calling customer service to have it rectified and was on hold for over 45 minute and when I finally was able to speak with someone, by that time I was upset. The representative was not very helpful and insisted that there is nothing to be done and when I asked about possible speaking with her manager, she went on to say that the manager would not do anything to change it and the information would remain on my credit report. I asked to speak with a supervisor who could better assist me despite what I was told by the representative, and I was redirected to Ms. Idalis ID# ** who also was not very helpful with my concern about the derogatory report on my credit report.

    I pride myself highly on my credit and when I tried explaining to Ms. Idalis that I do not feel this was accurate. Instead of defusing the situation or offer some type of solution, she went on to perplexed my tranquility and demeans my integrity as a customer by being rude to me. This young lady was not professional at all. She went on to tell me that paying online is not the only form of payment offered by the company forgetting that I called due to the ongoing online problems.

    Even until today, this is truly very disturbing to me. After more than 18 years, this is how I am being treated, after being a responsible customer trying to rectify a problem through no fault of mine. At first I asked her to close the account as per my request as I was upset with the treatment I received but then I told her that I wanted to dispute the negative report and leave the account open. I asked for her full name and she provided her first name and id number which I have included in my letter to you.

    After working all night at the hospital and coming home this morning, I was unable to go to sleep after speaking with Ms. Idalis and the other young lady on her team. I made several attempt calling and even tried to access the account online without any success. I was on hold again for more than 30 minutes then no response. Finally, I tried calling again and was able to get Shawn ID #** who seemed more understanding of my frustration, and while speaking with him and I explained what had happen and that I wanted to get some information about my account so that I can bring my concern to the CEO. He apologized for the treatment which I received and was very helpful and explained that there was a heavy call volume and explained there have been online issues which they are working on.

    It was at this time it was brought to my attention that my account was closed as per my request, which I specifically asked Ms. Idalis to leave the account open and place a dispute on my behalf. According to Shawn, the account cannot be reopen, I would have to reapply. However, with a negative impact on my credit, this is not an option for me at this time or any other future credit application in the near future. I have two line of credit with Macy's and Ms. Idalis went ahead and closed the in-store account. However, the American Express is still open. However, why did one get closed when I specifically asked Ms. Idalis to repeat back to me what I asked her to do? So why would she closed the account?

    I am not very pleased with the customer service and the new online implementation of the company. The online services needs to rectify as I am sure from the extensive waiting time via telephone to acquire assistance from a representative; customers like me are not happy. I will be making a formal complaint to the Better Business Bureau as well share my encounter with my families and friends through the different social media and business relations contacts that I have. This is not acceptable to me and nor should it be the company policies to allow customers to treated and handle unprofessionally. I only hope that you will be able to find the time to address my problems and prevent this from happening to others. Thank you for your time.

None of the supervisors were able to help him, or accept the fact that MACY'S made a mistake when the order was placed. He received several charges on his account that cause an overdraw fee.

I could not get through the Macy’s Credit Card Customer Service and was on hold today for four hours. Their online portal is constantly broken and there is no technical support.

    Their problem is that they need to invest in customer service and technical support if they want to engage in e-commerce and allow customers to have online access to their account information. In an economy where I have a choice of where to shop and spend my dollars I am choosing to fire Macy’s. They sell a commodity product that I can get at the same price elsewhere.

    I have been Macy's card customer for 6 years and was fine with their service up until now. A couple of months ago I paid my account balance in full and was late by one day. After I paid my balance online I was unable to access my credit card balance for three months. Every time I tried I was told there was an error on their website. During those three months I did not receive any notice via email or mail that I had unpaid charges on my account.

    I was finally able to sign on again online 3 months later only to see that they charged me $2 interest fee after I paid my balance in full that month. Those $2 then turned into $100 balance in three months with accumulating late fees and interest charges. When I called the customer service line they would not remove all the charges. I was able to get it down to $58 and finally just closed it all together. I never ever want to do business with a company that tries to deceive and steal from their customers for $58 dollars.

    I bought two mattress sets at Macy's in Carlsbad CA. The salesclerk -- new at the job -- wrote up the sale incorrectly. Of four pieces (two box springs and two mattresses) only one mattress was correct. The other three were the wrong size -- as I discovered when they delivered them. I went back to the store to correct the order. The original sales clerk wasn't in, so an experienced clerk began to help me. But as soon as the newbie showed up, the experienced guy stopped and made her do it. It took an hour, with her constantly needing to find the experienced guy to walk her through the corrections. Finally, it was done -- with many near errors corrected only because I was hyper-vigilant this time.

    Flash forward to the delivery. In CA, it's not legal to charge for removing old mattresses and box springs (so that they won't be disposed of illegally). So, Macy's must take them for free unless they can come up with a reason not to. Sure enough, they claimed we had bed bugs and they would not take the mattresses. We challenged them and they pointed to a dark piece of lint on a mattress. We picked it up and showed them it was lint. They still insisted there were bugs. So we immediately contacted Dewey pest control. They came out within an hour and said there were NO bedbugs and NO signs of them -- not even close. Total scam to avoid picking up beds as they are required to do by law. This is the last time I buy anything from Macy's. And I mean anything. My aunt feels the same way. We're done with you.

I call Macy's and no one is giving me an answer other than my product is no longer available. I call my bank and I conference Macy's in, the woman says I'm going to get an authorization code for the second charges hold on... 20 mins later the call ends. Needless to say Macy's is not very helpful and I have now wasted over 4 hrs between my bank and Macy's all for a stupid sale. I don't suggest buying from Macy's.com EVER!!! 75% of the call center employee don't speak very good English and it makes a difficult situation even more difficult.

    I can just say watch the mistakes that customer service does and never take the responsibilities for them. Instead, they will screw you if miss a payment, make excuses for the flaws in their systems such as having different addresses from you in different departments, and have no respect for customers. Happily just closed my card!

    On April 24, I took advantage of a promotion in the Macy's men's department at their Medford, OR store where I would receive a 20% discount if I opened a revolving charge account. So I did, and promptly paid the full amount of the charge right there at the checkout stand. Several months later, I receive a statement that I owed more than $400 on an account I used only once. Upon investigating, I discovered that the account was charged twice for the same purchase. Once at the discounted price of $390.63 that I paid on the spot, but then the charge at the full price of $488.29 was also added for the same transaction. I never received a statement until several months later to discover the account had been referred to collections and more than $100 in late fees and penalties were also added.

    After trying for several weeks, and speaking to dozens of customer service representatives, I am compelled to file a formal complaint against Macy's and their predatory credit practices. They lure customers to open usurious revolving charge accounts with discounts at the time of purchase only to rip-off consumers with false charges to their accounts and then charge outrageous late fees and penalties, referrals to collection agencies, and incur deleterious impacts to their credit scores without providing consumer-friendly, effective means to redress the problems.

    I called the Macy's store in the Westfield Mall in Palm Desert, California, to ask if they carried mastectomy swimsuits. Initially, the young lady I spoke with didn't know what this was, so I explained that it's a swimsuit with pockets for inserting a breast form/prosthesis for people who've had a mastectomy. She replied that Macy's did not carry such an item and apparently thought that my explanation was hysterically funny. I was extremely upset by both her ignorance and her rude response. I was so upset and also anxious that other women who've had mastectomies not be humiliated in this way -- that I emailed Macy's via their website.

    I asked: 1) Why Macy's did not carry mastectomy swimsuits; and 2) Why they don't train their associates to know about such products and (even if they don't carry mastectomy swimsuits) tell their staff how to respond in a professional manner to an inquiry from a customer. I received no response or even an acknowledgement of my email. I guess my third question would be, "Why does Macy's care so little about their customers that they refuse to respond to a customer's concerns and apparently condone unprofessional behavior on the part of their salespeople?"

Not only that I owed the $2 but that I owed a late payment of $35 as well. This is from a $0 balance. Anyway much dispute took place, and I did something crazy and made a purchase online $126.37. I have never received a bill in the mail, nor online, nor any other form and before the month was up, got another call from Bloomingdale with another late payment.

    I seriously think someone should initiate a class action suit against Macy's for their deceptive advertising practices...maybe that someone should be ME! I have visited the store a handful of times in the last year or so. Usually I'm prompted by an email or coupon that I receive in the mail, only to take time to make my selections and get to the register to learn that the coupon is worthless. When using the coupons, you have to read the fine print, which is difficult or next to impossible for some people like myself who rely on heavy prescription eyeglasses. One will find that most of the time, the coupons do not work on ANYTHING!

    Take last week, for instance --- I visited the store with my teen children and got very excited when I saw that 90% of the juniors section was on sale. As anyone with multiple children will understand, preparing them for back-to-school can be financially taxing and stressful. We had a coupon that offered $25 off of $100, so the kids spent three hours trying on clothes and making their final selections, only for us to get to the register to learn that the coupon would not work.

    My question to Macy's is; why do you have to trick people into coming into your stores to shop? Wouldn't it be easier for the consumer and not so deceptive if you just listed on the front of the coupon that it applied to regular-priced merchandise only? Part of the excitement in shopping for me is feeling that I have walked away with a bargain and not been duped, but this is how I feel every time I frequent a Macy's store. Not to mention how much time gets wasted in just trying to figure out what the coupons can be used on. I was so angry, I wanted to return all of the merchandise but then I saw the expressions on my kids' faces and I couldn't disappoint them. Today I read that you are closing 40 store, and seriously, I can't say I'm surprised.

Later he transferred me to orders department and came to know that the item which I placed was out of stock after placing my order.

    I ordered 2 Charter Club, Charter Club Vail Elite Medium pillows from Macy's as part of a sale they were having offering 2 for a low price together, and it's conveniently unavailable now after I purchased it, but I took a screenshot at the time of my purchase from my Macbook Pro when I originally purchased it. I understand that the purchase on my receipt from Macy's says simply "Charter Club, Charter Club Vail Elite Medium" and not 2 pillows for the price of one, but then why did they advertise 2 pillows for the price of 1, and then change all the information afterwards and now have a new sale offering the same thing, but pay another 1$ for another pillow? I paid for 2 pillows, and I didn't get them.

    They refuse to acknowledge any sort of wrongdoing, and have committed fraud and false advertising. I don't want my money back because I'm sure I'll hit some sort of BS policy of theirs that would limit me getting a full refund. I just want the other pillow that I paid for shipped to my address because I bought it in good faith that I could receive the product that I paid for..... I mean what is this BS - how are companies allowed to do this to consumers? Why would they advertise something then change the information about it making it conveniently unavailable as if modern technology doesn't look a footprint... What a sketchy company.

    I ordered a handbag online from Macy's.com on Aug 29, 2015 which during that time the online systems was having issues but it informed me to go ahead and make the purchase. I placed the order which I used a $50 gift card and a 20% promo code that they gave me from a previous order they cancelled and I should receive an email confirmation number within 24 hours. Placed my order and received an email stating my order was cancelled! Tried to go back online to process my order again to find out that my gift card had not been refunded back nor was my 20% discount code available and my cc was charged as well!

    I called Macy's customer services to be informed that couldn't even find my order. To make a long story short.. I have been calling every day since this happened.. and I keep getting the runarounds! Two agents state it was in transit and was going to send me an email confirmation showing that my order is on its way. I haven't received anything yet! Talk to gift card department who keeps telling me they cant refund my gift card because it been used. But I'm like "you all cancelled my order, it needs to be refunded and my discount code does too!" I call literally everyday to hear different stories. I keep hearing the bag is on its way.. to I don't see your order so you should have everything refunded within 24 hours... still haven't gotten anything back!

    So I called corporate, spoke to a nice lady who issued me a gift card for my "inconvenience" and stated that the other gift card will be refunded back yet again within 24 hours... still nothing! I had to call my cc company and dispute the charge for the remaining balance that I had to pay! I am so done with Macy's and their 24 hours shenanigans. And let them tell it. Their system is always "Updating"! All I want is what is due to me and I'm tired of the lies and the excuses on why my issue is not being resolved!!

    I only recently got a card to get 20% off of kids school clothes. I was having a lot of trouble paying online as I was not getting my online statements and didn't realize this until I had a $27 late charge. They supposedly corrected the issue and removed the fee. However again, I was not receiving my statement and poof another charge of $27 - I immediately closed my account furious as they would not remove it. For a few months I was able to make payments again online. However a few months later (with a balance of $40) I tried to sign in and could not get into my account (so I assumed I paid off my account as I track my bills with the email statements).

    A couple days ago I received a paper statement in the mail with a note explaining that due to improvements some credit services were temporarily unavailable so in order to make a prompt payment they were sending out paper statements. Lo and behold, no surprise, ANOTHER late charge was added of $27. I called and spoke to a supervisor and they claim they could not remove it. $40 turned into $68 and he offered to take it over the phone - I said "no I was going to do it online". I had to call them back because of course, I still cannot get into my account online to make a payment - it is still not working. Had to call back, more furious than ever and the person took my payment over the phone - it took her 10 minutes to get a confirmation number as their system is new and complicated and no one knows how to work it yet.

    They were happy - they happily made an extra $27 bucks off me and surely they are benefiting off of many due to a new system and computer issues. What a scam!!! The reason for opening the account (20% off) is now invalid as they have found a way to recoup all the initial savings via their scam late charges. By the way, I pay all my bills online and have never had this type of an issue with any other company.

I went to return it on 8/16/15 because of size issue.

I know I had removed the tag immediately as I loved the jacket and I made a big mistake of removing it. She also told me that she is going to check in the cameras if I had ever bought it. This is so insulting. Of course I have a receipt and sorry Macy's should make a rule that tags should be at the same spot where they are originally. I am never going to buy anything from here for a long time.

    This was the most insulting and ridiculous incident today. I wish you take action against her and remove her from the front desk. She never said Hi/Hello to any of the customers and looked sad and unhappy. Why would I ever buy something worth $95 and return it in the wrong place?

    My saga started with a cashier at Macy's pointing out that my Macy's credit card had expired - 2 years prior. When I told her I'd been using it the entire time she said that the cards usually work past the expiration date, and it worked fine for that purchase. I contact Macy's credit services through their website (secure email) and they closed my account and reissued a new card "for security purposes". Ok, no big deal but really silly since the replacement had been missing for 2 years and I was using an expired card for 2 years - very secure. You have to link your credit card to your online profile yourself - didn't know this, so didn't get payment due email. I also didn't get a paper statement the first month, so I had a late payment and $25 fee when the paper statement arrived (after my payment due date).

    I hate to contact customer service by phone - they are staffed by falsely cheerful call center staff with accents that make it difficult to conduct business with them. They follow a script very closely and never listen to what you say or follow through on your issue. First I was told they couldn't reverse the fee, then when I agreed to pay by phone, the person said they would reverse it. My payment was only late because of their screwed up system, I was frustrated by having to pay on the phone, had a bad feeling about it, but did so to get the fee reversed.

    Forward a couple of weeks and I get a letter in the mail saying my check was returned and they are charging me $25. Called and spoke with another rep who cheerfully didn't listen to what I was saying - turns out the pay by phone person added a number randomly to the middle of my checking account number, hence the return issue. This is after she read the number back to me correctly - knew I didn't want to pay by phone. So I refused to pay by phone on the second call and made the payment online as I was speaking to the service person - she said they will watch for the payment in 2 days and reverse the returned check fee but I'm sure I will be calling again to get this done. I'm amazed by all the security issue related reviews for Macy's on this site, given that they have such flawed security around their own card.

    After calling again and again their system shows only one transaction of 217.21$ at the start. However my bank statement and phone banking show all 13 transactions then they will admit that. I requested a statement of the order and the cancellation to be sent to me and my bank through email. Unfortunately I didn't receive anything from their end although I contacted them 3 times after the cancellation. Every time they have wrong spelling of my email. They ruined my vacation to the US.

    On Saturday night 8/8/15, I purchased a $100.00 emailed gift card for my daughter in law's birthday on Macy's web site using my debit card. Yes, I know you should not use a debit card, but I do not use credit cards. I only use cash or checks or a debit card. It was processed under order # ** (original order). The next day, Sunday, I received a call at home from Macy's Site Security Team practically accusing me of using a stolen credit card and after my asking why I was being treated like a thief, they would not tell me. It took me 15 minutes to prove who I was, including having them call me back. Instead of them emailing the order as I asked, they cancelled it and later reopened it under order # **. They tried to email the card, but used the wrong email address, adding an extra letter to the email address I gave them.

    Today, after looking at my bank balance I noticed that Macy's charged my card again a second time so I am now out $200.00 and they never sent the card to my daughter in law!! I called their customer service line today and spoke to someone named Mary who promised to call my bank to indeed ensure that someone did charge it twice. I gave her the phone number on my debit card and she promised to get right back to me by phone or email. I never got a phone call back or an email either. I don't appreciate being treated as someone who steals credit card info, then being stolen from in the form of being double charged and then not get the card itself. In all my years of doing business on the web, I have never had this happen to me before. I believe I am being swindled here and am one step from alerting our CT Attorney General to what Macy's is doing to its customers here in CT.

    I have read on this site that Macy's has made a practice of harassing innocent people by their so-called Security Team. I am a senior and the money they took from me is money that I need to pay bills and buy food and medication. It was a big lesson for me, but if I can keep one person from being used, abused and taken for a ride by their methods, it will be worth it for me to have written this.

    Macy's just do not allow me to purchase their products online by saying that my information cannot be identified. When I ask them how can I provide my information to them for qualify to purchase on macys.com, they told me that they do not know and the order will be declined if use the same name and same address in the future. That is ridiculous. Should I change my name or moving to qualify the precondition for purchasing on macys.com? I feel bad because I have been discriminating.

    I have been shopping at Macy's for years along w/ a number of other stores and never in my life have I experienced someone borderline harassing me and following me around a store because of the color of my skin until I moved to LaQuinta, CA from Dallas, TX about 6 months ago. There aren't really any great places to shop out here until I found the Macy's store out here which I was excited about since I'd been shopping there for years. The first couple of times shopping there wasn't so bad though it was extremely annoying having people come up to you every 2 minutes to ask you if you need help and staring at you is quite annoying but I could deal. I just assumed she was trying to be over friendly because I don't want to judge.

    Over the next few times I shopped there it got way worse to the point where they were so busy paying attention to me that they didn't even notice the 3 teenage girls grabbing bundles and bundles of clothes going back and forth into the fitting rooms. I then became agitated at the situation and asked to speak to a store manager. They ended up sending over some random department manager. I informed them that I do not wish to speak to any department manager, I would like to speak to the Store Manager. I was informed that they are unavailable and I asked when they would be available. I was told to try and call on Tuesday. I asked if he would actually be there Tuesday because I would be returning to speak to them in person and not over the phone. I was told I would just have to call and to find out.

    At that point it seemed really strange that someone wouldn't know when their store manager would be available when I never even saw them call anyone. I became agitated and returned the almost $300 dollar purchase I had just paid because in no way shape or form did I want to give them any more of my business. A few months had passed and I really wanted to do one shopping but again no good places to shop in the area so I decided to give Macy's another shot after discovering that I hate online shopping. So I go into Macy's on 08/06/15 and it was the worst experience of my life.

    I found a couple of items I liked on their 70% off rack and went to checkout w/ a very nice associate who had actually helped me earlier. I paid for my items and the associate began bagging my items when the associate behind her grabs 1 of my items as the associate is placing them in the bag and takes it to the computer behind her and begins checking my items to check to see if the tags were correct. She then reached in my bag and checks the other items. I was in shock!!! Even the associate checking me out was in shock. It was the most unprofessional, disrespectful and rudest thing that someone has ever done to me.

    She then tells me that 1 of the items tags are incorrect and attempts to accuse me of it. I informed her there were more of those items on the 70% off rack and pointed directly at the rack filled w/ them along w/ other items on the rack. On top of that tag was a tag that Macy's had made, not the original tag. She then w/out my permission returns 1 of the items and attempts to charge me a way higher price for the item. Me still in shock and speechless that she would think that that's okay for her to do. Even the associate helping me couldn't believe it. I then began to come out of my shock and form words but I realized if I don't leave now I would borderline chew her a new one because for her to think it was okay to be that disrespectful is just not okay.

    I am officially done w/ Macy's. I have been harassed, disrespected, insulted, and experienced a level of unprofessionalism that I never in a million years thought I'd ever experience. I still can't believe it. I then call the store later on after going home and telling my bf about who was just as pissed as I was. But surprise, surprise they aren't available. I then asked if they even really had a store manager because any time he or she is being asked for, they seem to never be there or always unavailable. I then ask for a corporate number and was told the only number they had was the Macy's customer services number which I had already had and informed her that that wasn't a corporate number and I wanted to speak w/ her store manager's manager. Somehow the phone disconnects... hmm I wonder how that happened.

    Anyway we have been looking on the internet trying to find a corporate number w/ no such luck of anyone answer only horrible stories about people's experiences w/ shopping at Macy's and was horrified by some of their experiences. I will definitely not be giving them any more of my business. Even the online service is horrible... I don't know what to do about the situation. I'm still so pissed about it that they think it's okay to treat people that way.

The packing material (styrofoam, tape, cardboard, etc) broke apart and/or needed to be cut to release the lamps. The only option is for me to take them to a Macy's store for Macy's to repackage and mail them.

    "Thanks for your email regarding order number **. I'm sorry for the defective lamps that you've received. Kindly return the defective merchandise to us by mail.

Please check your email for a merchandise return label to be received within 24 to 48 hours. You'll just need to print the label, attach the label to the package, include the invoice in the box and drop the package at the UPS location nearest to you. Please allow 7-10 business days for the return transit time plus an additional 4 business days upon receipt for the return to be completed and for the refund to be issued.

    Dear Macy's Accounting, I am dumbfounded regarding your treatment of my account. I recently reopened the account and have been a Macy's customer since the 1980s and did carry a card before. NOW you closed my account without contacting me. I never received an email or a phone call, or letter. If you had the wrong address, of which I was informed you did, more of an effort should have been made to reach me. When I called questioning your decision I was informed that I missed a payment in April. I missed one month and you closed the account? I have had medical issues this year and some bills were missed so I do apologize. Yet, I wonder if your decision reflects the policies of corporate management.

    I own a business and I have many customers that are late with payments, and would I stop selling to them? Would I intentionally close a customer's account? Are you kidding? If they were one month late would I make such a radical decision? What needs to happen within your company is whoever oversees your department needs to step up to their job and change your short sighted policies. I shop online more and more and even though you recently opened the Summerlin store near me (which I was happy about) I won't shop there again. I am sending copies to corporate, posting on Facebook and all the other social media venues to complain about Macy's and how they really are going downhill. Amazon here I come!

When I made a call to Macy's trying to research what happened to my order they replied that their security system didn't let my order to go through. On my question "what exactly didn't fit their security standards?" they said they cannot release this information to me due to the security purposes. More than that they banned me from online shopping with Macy's till their investigation is completed. After almost a week passed, they called me today and let me know exactly the same as they told me a week ago!!!

    So I am trying to understand the following: If my information hasn't changed since last order I placed couple of months ago, and obviously they have a glitch in their online system, why they punish me for their unprofessional way of leading online business??? I feel like I am trapped with no answers and results forever. :-( I myself work in the Information Technology field and understand how important the security of online purchase. But also as part of my duty I understand and do everything possible while working on the design requirements of the website that our clients would feel taken care of in getting clear and honest answers to the online security issues, especially considering that client is a long time shopper with Macy's online!!!

    The first issue I had with Macy's credit card was when I placed 2 items on hold at the store and in order to hold the items at the sale price they had to take my credit card info. I called the next day and gave them the receipt number telling them I would not be in to get the items. When I received my bill I had been charged for the items, then charged late fees, it took months for this to be resolved.

    The second and current situation, I purchased two dresses, kept one, returned one for a refund on my card. Instead they sent me a gift card. I called and told them I did not want the gift card I wanted the credit on the credit card. I paid for half of the amount of the first dress and said I would pay the late fee for the first dress and pay it in full, but I would not pay for the second dress, which they obviously received or they would not have sent me a gift card, and yet said they never received the return. Then began the late fees. I refuse to pay late fees on an item that I returned and because of poor customer service, or employees who did not correctly do the return a bill that I originally owed 84.00 on is now up to 274.00.

    I will NEVER shop at this store. I told them to cancel my card, and it has been 3 months of phone calls and still have no resolve. I spoke with one manager who sent me to 2 different departments, and after having asked to speak with a manager each and every time they call, I still haven't been able to.

    I called back today. I spoke to Alex in Customer Service who hung up on me! I ended up speaking to supervisor, Emanuel who said I could replace the order at the same price (as if that was some sort of favor). He initially offered me nothing else. So I asked about a credit or a coupon since Macy's messed up twice (once for the wrong item shipped then when their cust. service rep told me that they would resend my necklace). In response to my request, Emmanuel offered a 20% coupon for my next purchase. That's like offering nothing at all! Macy's often has 15 or 20% coupons available to print on their website.

    I subsequently ordered same garments in size 6. They fit the same as the original shorts I purchased which are labeled size 8. While I ordered the same colors one of them is a totally different shade from the size 8 order. Although Macy's policy is no refunds for washed or damaged merchandise I feel I am entitled to a refund based on what appears to be mislabeling. These shorts were not on sale and I am out $95.33.

    Hello. I purchased a Tag Heuer Aquaracer watch from a knowledgeable male salesperson at the Rockingham Mall in Salem, NH on June 20, 2015. I feel obliged to mention that I decided deliberately to purchase the watch from Macy's as opposed to an online retailer because Macy's has always been a positive shopping experience for me, and while I may pay more I have always received outstanding customer service.

    When I purchased the watch, I was informed of a 30 day return policy for the watch. I paid in cash and still have the original receipt. The salesperson also was kind enough to offer resizing, and when put on my wrist he suggested removing one link for comfort. The gentleman placed the watch, receipt, and link with the price tag in the bottom of the Tag Heuer watch box, and offered my receipt.

    I decided that the watch wasn't ideal for me, and I returned first to my local Macy's in Nashua, NH today, July 20, 2015, with the watch and receipt and spoke with the manager of jewelry, **. She stated that she could not accept the return because this store does not sell the watch. I had also asked the jewelry clerk whether, if I had purchased diamonds they would have accepted them back, and she replied "yes." I said, even if it was over $1000 and she stated "yes."

    However, after the clerk referred me to the manager, **, the manager stated they did not cover that brand and I would need to contact the Salem Mall at Rockingham, where I purchased the watch. I asked whether this store was the Macy's brand, and I also did say that I am a very good customer of Macy's and had decided to purchase the watch at this retailer in part because of their customer service and guarantee to customers. She just informed me that I should travel to the Rockingham Mall, but she noted that "the retailer who sold this did not stamp the receipt with a 'no returns' stamp."

    I then returned to the Rockingham Mall. They informed me that the watch had been resized and they will not accept the watch for a return. I informed the female jewelry manager Macy's had resized the item. Also, I had not been informed of the fact that resizing would invalidate returns when I purchased it; the sales person offered to resize the watch on site and did not mention that this would invalidate returns, though the manager did later point to a portion of the receipt that stated "resizing" would invalidate returns.

    What bothers me most is two-fold: one, is that I was not told of this exception when the watch was purchased; and two, that the manager at Rockingham stated she had spoken with the male salesperson who sold the watch who said he did inform me that it would not be returnable. He did not, in fact, and consequently as a customer I feel lied to about my purchase. That is what is most unfair to me.

    The fact is I spend much of my shopping dollars at Macy's. I have purchased diamonds, fragrances, suits, and as a customer I believe I have always been treated with respect, honesty, and dignity by the company. I also intended to use the return toward another watch with automated movement as opposed to battery-powered movement to make a higher-quality purchase.

    However, my experience with the manager's refusal and the sales person's inaccurate statement has left a foul taste in my mouth as a consumer. I also do not believe the purchase and sales contract was honored in terms of informing me of the inability to return. Also, I do not like being lied to in order to scapegoat responsibility, so this is quite disappointing.

    I went shopping at Macy's today. I had a Macy's $100 gift card from 2010 purchased by my daughter for my Birthday. I have been saving it for a big purchase and yes it has been 5 years but the money is supposed to be good forever. I went to use it and the card showed zero balance. It has been in my bedside drawer still completely intact glued onto the card. The clerk actually had to scratch the code which also indicates it had not ever been used and when purchased it was not scratched off.

    I actually had to peel the thick glue off the back of the card where it had been stuck on the card board it came on before I handed it to the clerk. The clerk worked hard at trying to figure out what was going on including calling the number on the back of the card. She was told it had been used September 10, 2014 on a Michael Kors watch in California. I live in Florida and have not traveled to California in over 15 years. The manager was called over to help us and she called in also and she was advised unless we have an original receipt we could not investigate this. This all took almost 2 hours and a lot of stress with no resolution. I followed up after I left the store and called the number on the back of the card and talked to 4 different people and they all basically said tough luck, they will not investigate with no receipt.

    I understand there are probably all kinds of people calling in with stories but this to me seems so cut and dry. My card showed no evidence of being used, I was never in the location where the purchase was made, and the card has been tucked away in my drawer unused and in the exact condition I received it in my birthday card. My daughter did not give me a receipt and she of course 5 years later does not have the receipt and is not 100% sure where she purchased it. We were told by Macy's that it was a 3rd party vendor. So most likely she purchased it at Publix or CVS or Walgreen’s. I would have to tromp around and request a 5 year old origin of receipt from these vendors. This whole experience was troubling and I was treated very poorly from all the folks I dealt with. They simply did not care!

    I've been a Macy's card holder for 14 months now. My daughter in College lives 2,500 miles away. During the time I've had my card, I've purchased probably 12 gift cards from Macy's for her. Every time, it's a big ordeal and they cancel the order. It's always fun when this happens close to her birthday and the gift card gets delayed (NOT).

    First I get and e-mail that says the order went through. Then I get one (about 6-7 hours later) that says it was canceled. Now half of the day has gone by and the order has been canceled/delayed. I call in to the number provided, get put on hold and switched around, and spend a minimum of 45-55 minutes each time on the phone before they restore the order. On two occasions, I had to call in twice, and then they had to "call me on my phone to make sure it was me."

    I've also had regular, non-gift card orders canceled and had them play the same games with me that the a lot of my time and delay gifts for my daughter at important times like her birthday - all because Macy's does not have it together. Ridiculous. My banks that I have 15k and 20k credit cards with do NOT do this. Nordstrom does NOT do this. Thus they will be getting my business in the future, not Macy's. Macy's Customer Service on the phone is also rude and gives the attitude that they could care less. Over the past 8 years, I have probably spent $5,000 per year in Macy's between birthdays, holidays, Christmas, and personal clothing for myself. NOT ONE MORE dime will go to Macy's.

    I'm also paying off the $500 balance on my Macy's Credit Card and canceling it tomorrow. Oh, how freeing that will be!

I talked to a few people in Macy's customer service dept. trying to resolve the issue. The payments had cleared my account, so I know they were processed by Macy's.

    Long story short someone finally told me that there was a different account number for purchases outside of Macy's. It was resolved about six months later and they even sent me a credit for overpayment. I understand I was partly to blame thinking it was the right thing to do paying against the number on my card. However, it seems that someone in Macy's could have figured it out much sooner. Now I have a derogatory notice on my credit report.

On June 6, after they received my paid-in-full payment, they slapped on $2.00. So, I called the customer service # provided, twice.

    The next rep (Robert) picked up the phone and abruptly said "Hello". Not "This is ____, how may I serve you today? ", or something similar. Just "Hello".

I informed him of the purpose of my call regarding the $2.00. After voicing my concern about this extra charge, he explained that the closing date was AFTER I paid it in full. I voiced my displeasure while remaining professional. This is where he became rude and obnoxious and became pushy and said at least 3x, that I need to pay the $2.00 so everything would stop. What would stop? I've never been contacted. I've lived in the house for 20 years and have had the same phone number for just as long.

    I asked his name and associates ID number. He reluctantly provided it, and then said "Why did you want that for?". I informed him I'd be filing a complaint for his lack of customer service skills. His response was, "Oh that's ok, I can handle that." So I paid the $2.00 just to get rid of them, and requested my account closed. Then he said, "Bye" in a condescending attitude and hung up on ME! I have filed a written complaint to the company. I've never encountered such unprofessional attitude from Macy's before... until now. I've shopped Macy's for 40 years. Not anymore. They've lost me as a customer. After reading many prior reviews it appears that they have the tendency to slide in an extra $2.00 to many accounts.

    Macy's canceled my order over the phone after they called 4 times in one day and I didn't answer not recognizing phone number when I called number back to verify my online order. Almost $400 charged and cleared my visa debit card and they canceled order when I called to verify order by phone while I was talking to them got email and saw it online account with Macy's? Horrible customer service harassing, they had no right to cancel order because I didn't call them to verify online order because I used another number.

    Order done 1am 07/06/2015, 6 emails after, they called 4 times, left no voice mail message and I called twice and they canceled my order but took my money by charging my card when I told them don't cancel order and had ordered it online for same day delivery. From 1am-10:39pm trying to shop online and just had money stolen out of bank account not pending cleared and ordered canceled by employees. All info matches address phone numbers and Visa card and not first time shopped online. Harassing going on all day and stealing my money refusing to ship what I paid for wrong. Doing it to me when I am sick which is why I didn't go into the store and shopped online wrong.

    I was very pleased with my experience at Macy's. I haven't shopped there much in the past, but based off the great interaction I had I will definitely be shopping there again! I went early in the morning to check out the purses that they had for sale for Mothers Day. I found the perfect bag for my mother and headed to the check out. I originally thought the cost of the bag was a little over $200. When I got to the counter the saleswoman kindly offered me a "early bird" discount that was advertised in the ad. I had no idea about the savings of nearly 20%!! She applied the discount and I ended up paying less than $200 for the bag. If it wasnt for her I would have never known!

    I would recommend to anyone buying a mattress through Macy's, that they look carefully at the nice 60 day return option. It is true, you can return a mattress. You pay an $80 upfront fee plus a 15% "usage fee" which in my case amounted to $120. In addition, the scheduling is cumbersome. I have had my new mattress, purchased from a different company, and it will be almost another week before Macy's will pick up my returned mattress.

    In addition, I felt that the sales person in the Macy's store as well as the online sales people seemed woefully incapable of helping to guide an appropriate purchase. Also, the models available in the Macy's store we visited did not provide many different options. In any case, make sure you like it before you buy it because otherwise you are losing at least $200 on the experiment.

    I have never in my life dealt with a more crooked company. I received a necklace from Macy's as a gift for my graduation from law school. When I returned the necklace (with a gift receipt), Macy's gave me a gift card because they don't give cash back. Since that return, they have put a security alert on my gift card each and every time I have tried to place an order with it either in store or online. I have had the security order lifted three times now. Yet, this problem recurs over and over again. Coincidentally, each time a "security" hold is placed on MY gift card, it is during a sale so that I miss the sale and end up paying full price or paying out of pocket for the item.

    I have NEVER in my life encountered such dishonesty and corruption. This money belongs to ME and Macy's is not only preventing me from spending it, but they are actively trying to get me to spend more money in their store by forcing me to pay out of pocket during sales or pay more when there is not a sale. When I returned the necklace initially, Macy's NEVER asked for my name, my address or any information. So, how exactly they are able to place a "security" hold on the gift card they gave me blows my mind.

    I feel considering my experience from a recent on-line order with Macy's, I would suggest to others that they should reconsider placing an order from Macy's. I placed an order on June 27, 2015 and was please to receive my shipment on June 30, 2015. That turned out to be the only thing I was please with involving this order. When I placed the order online I was concerned because within minutes of submitting the order I received my receipt on-line. Upon reviewing the receipt, I found that a gift card my daughter gave me was not credited to the total sum on the receipt. I contacted the only customer service telephone line that is provided on the website to inquired about the receipt and my concern for the credit. I explained to the Customer Service Representative (CSR) that the total order should have been less than $70.00, however, when the receipt was email there was no credit for gift card.

    The CSR kept repeating the items that I ordered and stating that the total sum which was charged was correct. There obviously was a communication problem and she seem not to understand my concern about the credit for the gift card. She was rude, and once she understood my concern she explain the procedure that my credit card would only be charge the amount less the gift card. She told me that it was my fault for not mentioning more about the gift card and when she finally stated that, we were cut off. I should have called back or something but I regret I did not. I was please to see how quickly it was delivered, however, that was the only thing it turned out I was pleased with. I ordered a ladies bathing suit, a dress, and a pair of women's white pants. What I found was an invoice with all three items checked off but there was a pair of white pants, not the item I ordered, a dress, and a pair of men's opened underwear.

    I contacted customer service to be told that the items were in transit and they have until July 2 for me to received my ordered. I tried to explain that the items were in transit and delivered within the last 30 minutes and there was a problem with the order. The CSR repeated that they have until July 2 to send items and maybe the suit was in transit. I asked about the underwear and the fact that the items have been checked off by ** (inspector) stating that everything was packaged and sent. I asked what to do with the underwear and there was no comment so I asked if there were a free gift or something and the CSR said "yes". Totally frustrated, I asked to be transferred to the customer satisfaction survey and was cut off. I called back and a very professional CSR came online and confirmed the gift card was credited because the receipt still showed the total sum without the credit.

    She said they would email a return label for me to send back the underwear and told me that the suit would be mailed, however, it would be 7 to 10 days for shipment. I told her that I had paid for 2-3 day shipping and I needed the suit before the 7 to 10 days because I would be going on vacation and the suit was ordered to take along. I asked if they could send it to my local Macy's and she said that they would only ship to my home from the warehouse. I asked that she transfer me to a manager because the service was unsatisfactory. After holding almost 15 minutes, the professional CSR came by on the line to say that the manager was helping someone else and it would be longer. I asked that they call me back ASAP. The manager, located in the Philippines, came on line and said that they would expedite my bathing suit and requested that I send back the men underwear with email label as soon as possible.

    I asked about the wrong item pants and he said that the item I ordered was no longer available and he would include a return label for them and when they received them in the warehouse they would credit back my account with 5 to 7 days. I asked why they would send a pair of pants in replacement of the item I ordered. He informed me that it is their policy to replace a item that is no longer available with a (like) item. This is the worst service I have experience in a very long time and never with Macy's. I will not be ordering from Macy's on-line from this point forward and I want to give a warning to others of the service they may receive. I have been a long-time, faithful customer and extremely disappointed that they seem to have lost their concern to provide good, quality service to their customers.

    I went to short hills mall to buy a Martha Stewart Chatam Quilt. Before I went there I checked inventory at that store. "In stock". When I got there, not so much. A very nice young man came to ask if I needed help, I told him what I wanted and he said I'll order it for you free shipping. He also hooked me up with an extra 15% off with a PLENTI card. The quilt was 50% off plus an extra $20.00 in savings. I'd say I was more than satisfied and will go there whenever I need new bedding. The man's name was ** and he was outstanding. Very happy.

    Back in February, I went to Macy's and purchased a king comforter set because Kohl's didn't have anything I really liked. Upon checking out the cashier asked if I wanted to open a Macy's card. I said no, she said that I should to save some money... After readily agreeing the process took forever to see if I was approved, and having to ensure my identity, which was fine. I had just moved to the area from a different state, so my address didn't reflect the address I really needed. The cashier said I needed to use the one on my ID which was my father's address. I said "OK that's fine.." just wanting to get out of there because the process was 30 minutes long.

    Ok I have this card but I don't shop there. I paid the payment in FULL because that's what the automated system said it would be. This was in February... I haven't bought anything since, haven't changed my address because it hasn't crossed my mind. I get a phone call at the end of JUNE and never had received a phone call from Macy's and they said I owed 90.00 for late fees.. Why am I just now getting a call? I said I wouldn't pay that and I wanted to speak to a supervisor.. she puts me on hold for 5 minutes, comes back and said the late fees are waived but I owed 2 dollars because that was what I was short...

    UNBELIEVABLE.. I said "whatever that's fine. I'll pay the 2 dollars, but CLOSE my account." She said they aren't in the wrong due to the address not being right. I said "yes but you could of given me a call WAY SOONER." I will never shop at Macy's again. I will stick with Kohl's, better rewards and better customer service who value their customers.

    I recently got a Macy's credit card. Limit $400. Sales associate indicated it was a no fee card. I paid the full balance of $365 within 30 days so as not to accrue interest. Lo and behold I get a statement from Macy's saying I owe a $2 processing fee. How, why? I send $2 in the mail (which gets returned because somehow the stamp fell off?) but in the meantime I get a call from a Philippines-based collection centre asking when I'm going to pay the $2. Really you're chasing a high income earner for $2? The call and wage of the person calling must be more than the $2. I cancelled my card at this point. I will never set foot in a Macy's again and will tell everyone what scam artists they are. Processing fee for what? I guess because they couldn't make interest off me they resorted to this.

    It is so disappointing to have a Macy's credit card. Their paper bill was marked as 'returned address' even though I have not moved in the last 5 years and account was sent to collection agency. Macy's refuses to withdraw bad credit report by saying that I have an email address on the account. They never tried to call or reach out to me by other channels, like other credit card companies. Bottom line, DO NOT open a credit card with Macy's. They are not there to help you.

    I bought a $25 Macy's gift card for my mom. Well they decided to cancel it because they've had fraud issues with gift card purchases from third party stores. Now they want my receipt from two years ago to prove I paid for it. Who keeps receipts for that long? Now they say without a receipt I am out of luck. They are a bunch of scam artists and this is just a way for them to expire gift cards and keep the money. Buyer beware!!

    I have had a Macy's Amex for about six years. I actually read the consumer statement enclosed with the card and knew there were two different lines of credit - one for the store and the second for purchases made outside of Macy's. I only use the card at Macy's and I set it up to auto-debit my checking account every month the day before the due date. I have never had an issue with the card. We received notice that Macy's is discontinuing their store credit card but that we can continue using it as an Amex only. We have a Bank of America Amex and so will be canceling the Macy's card. So, in my opinion, if you pay off your statement balance on time each month, you probably won't have any problems.

    I had applied for their credit card a while back (2009) and while I used it, it was great. That is until I paid it off and stopped using it, so I thought "OK it's paid off. I won't have to worry about it." A few months later (2) I noticed a email they sent me saying my card has been disabled and my account was frozen and they were going to send my account to collections. I thought "WTH!" so I go to their site and check what's going on. I wasn't allowed in the site and I got some 1-800 number I had to call to unfreeze/fix my card.

    So I end up calling and apparently it was over $3.50 that was on my account for over 3 months. I'm like "WTF! I paid it off. How did it get $3.50 on my account." So they continue to tell me it was a interest charge. I tell them "how the ** do you get interest off a ZERO balance." So I decided maybe it was a one time thing and paid off the MEASLY 3.50 so they can unlock my account and so I can use it again. Well I learned not too long later that the same ** $1.25 a month from a ZERO balance kept popping up on my account so I cancelled my card and told them to ** off.
