I wish I could give "negative" stars for this order. I ordered a dress from Saks in May. Upon receipt, the dress was damaged. It had a small rip in the slit and deodorant and/or make-up stains. It was not in an original Saks box. I returned the item after talking with customer service and uploading pictures of the damage. I was sent a return label. A few weeks later the dress was returned to me because it was damaged! (That's why I returned it!). I've talked to them at least three times since, they assure me they can read the notes and see it should be returnable and will have a supervisor look at the notes and send me a return label. Both times rejected. This is insane. How can I not return a product that was damaged upon receipt. I will never, ever order from Saks again.

I wish I read the reviews of Saks experience before purchasing online from them. I received my items very late and they could not even trace it. I was honest enough to return them when it showed up on my doorstep and now, I am still waiting for my refund. It is >1K worth so it is not a joke. The email I received says 7-10 business days. They said it was a typo and that it is 10-14 days. Let's see if I will receive it on the 14th day. Or else I will call BBB.

Saks used to be an elite shopping experience. Buyer beware- if you are unsatisfied with your purchase and seek to return your product- it will take perseverance and your time to get your refund. I purchased a fairly expensive pair of shoes. They did not fit so I returned them. I used the preprinted label provided by SAKS. I receive notice that my return was received on June 12th- in the email it said it could take 7-10 days to receive a refund (that in and of itself is ridiculous -not another retailer takes that long once a return is received--) then when I called on the 25th to inquire - I was told that the 7-10 days was a mistake and it could take until July 2nd-- I believe that is completely unreasonable and as such- I will not longer be shopping at Saks- horrible customer service.

Can't believe Saks cancelled my order which was on sale online, claimed item sold out. But check back online item still available but only back to regular price!? Very dishonest and terrible for Saks to do shady things like that!

I bought 3 items online, when I received the package there was only one item in the box. I called immediately and told them only one item was in the box, they said they would look into it and gave me a claim number. A week later they sent me an e-mail saying that they investigated it and all 3 items were sent. I called again, they said they would check again, another week went by, I called again, they said the claim was closed and that all 3 items were sent! I only received one item so it’s a she said they said scenario, I had ordered a J’ Adore body lotion & shower gel, it was a big splurge for me, now I have nothing and I feel like I was ripped off by Saks for $140.00!

I wish there was a zero rating on here. Honestly the treatment I received from this store have placed me in a stressful and sad state. I returned 2 dresses that I purchased online because they didn’t fit. A month after return, I still didn’t receive a refund after speaking to quite a few CSR about my refund. I was told refund was on the way and item was received. My last conversation to them inquiring about my refund was that they will only refund me for one dress and the other will be returned to me because the tags were removed. I am so angry with this situation because the dress was sent back immediately with all tags attached after finding out that they didn’t fit. The only good thing that came out of this is that they have caused me anxiety to know next time to check reviews before buying from any store because if I had done it for SAKS, I would not have spent my money with them.

I ordered two dresses for my son’s wedding in end of June. When I received them, they didn’t fit and I mailed them back for refund. They received the merchandise in three days but it’s been 15 days they haven’t refund me and they keep telling me it takes time.

I placed an order on May 23rd. I received half of the order on June 3rd and in the slips inside the package reads that the rest of the items will be delivered in a different package. I waited patiently until yesterday, June 18th, when I called customer service to ask about the remaining items, only to find out that they considered my package “delivered.” They started a claim and immediately sent me a claim resolution saying that they are unable to refund me for the items that I didn’t received neither replaced them at no cost.
I am very disappointed and I can’t believe that after being a loyal and great customer for over 20 years they wouldn’t take care of this issue. I feel robbed, scammed and the fact that the company doesn’t care or take care of their clients makes me want to close my account and never order from them again! I refuse to accept that there is no solution for my case!

If I could give zero or negative stars I would. I purchased a blazer that was expensive and received it damaged. When I returned it they refused the return because they said it was damaged or worn. I said I know! That’s why I returned it. The customer care does not have any communication with the returns department. It seems to me that they are going out of business. They are treating customers as if they are a collection agency. I WILL NEVER SHOP AT SAKS AGAIN! Buyer beware…. IT'S SO DISAPPOINTING. I have been a customer for over 35 years! Read all the reviews…. This keeps happening to customers over and over again. Don’t shop at Saks!

I purchased a $350 bottle of a men's parfum from Sacks online. When I opened the box to my surprise the box of parfum had already been opened. Someone cut the clear wrap completely off the top. There was no receipt in the box and the parfum was poorly packed. If I hadn't known better, I would have thought this was all a joke. I immediately tried to call the Sacks customer service line, but there is no way to actually call them, so I started an online chat. After wasting over 30 minutes of my time, I was given a very disappointing resolution to my problem. I was told that in 5-7 working days someone would contact me to discuss the issue. Discuss the issue? There is NOTHING to discuss. Sacks clearly sent me an open and possibly used or fake bottle and they should immediately correct the issue.
Sacks has my $350 and I have a bottle filled with who knows what fake cologne or a used bottle, and I'm supposed to wait up to 7 business days for someone to contact me. And knowing my luck, Sacks won't let me return the parfum because they probably don't accept opened parfum (like 99.9% of all stores out there). Now, I know I'm getting ahead of myself, but if this happens I have no idea what I'll do. All this aggravation, time wasted, money spent and stress as to whether they will exchange the open bottle for a "new" bottle is a joke. I thought Sacks could be trusted to send new and unopened fragrances. In addition, I thought Sacks valued customer service. They should have immediately allowed me to send back the bottle and immediately send me a "new" bottle to include a sincere apology for all of my time wasted and inconvenience.

Horrible within the last five months. I've been a Saks customer for 25 years +. They returned a return and refused to accept, stating that it was now outside the return date. Mind you, I returned three items in the same order. Asked for a price adjustment today, they declined it at $63.00. $353.00 for a Jacket that doesn't fit. They sent the wrong size. Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale's are the BEST!

I have been a Saks Fifth customer for past 5 years and have spent thousands of dollars on making purchases here but something like this has never happened. There was this online promotion going on for the month of June and I bought these $2000 earrings from them on Thursday, June 6th. It's June 14 and they still haven't sent out the product. I tried calling the customer care to ask them why my product has not been picked up by the courier company to which they responded they have higher volume and that they shall escalate the issue.
When I called the courier company, they told me that Saks drops off the products with them for shipping. Upon calling back the customer service and asking them what the issue is they told me if I don't get the product by 20th of June I will get a refund! My question is "I don't want a refund!!! What I want is to have the product". Also, when I m trying to open the product online now it's basically crashing the link. I will be adding all the detailed photos and transcripts to this later on... This is a great example of how unprofessional companies like this are handling their client relationships!!!!

Saks.com continue to be the absolute worst online experience. My last 2 orders & a order or 2 before Saks.com has not been represented well. 1.Last summer, return screwed up. 2. Last winter, we I finally decided to purchase again with saks.com sent a damaged coat. (Final Sale) even more reason to exam merchandise when it comes off the floor. 3. Send MJ handbag that doesn't have both straps. Absolutely MADD!! Last 2 purchase were to take with me on vacation. Very disappointed. Saks.com promise have FedEx pick up the last package. They did not. Customers shouldn't have to take time & energy to make a return when saks.com has fell short. I totally appreciate you get what you pay. Saks.com return policy SUCKsssss!

Saks online sent us the wrong item and when we tried to return it, they told us that this was not even their item and so the return was declined. We took pictures of the box it came in as well as the tag (which actually had the correct style number for the item we ordered but was not the correct style number for the item we received) and even said they elevated the concern to the supervisor level who also declined the return. When speaking directly with the supervisor we were told this was as high as the complaint could be elevated. Most likely the item they sent us was a back-stocked item as they probably ran out of the item we had actually ordered. I have never experienced such poor customer service and perhaps as Saks loses customers, their new business model has become that of fraud and deception. Despite having shopped at both the stores and online for over 40 years, we will never shop there again.

I am a platinum member with Saks. I will never shop at Saks again. I purchased a pair of Valentino shoes ($520) that broke the first time I wore them. I tried returning them to the store, and was told I have to send damaged items back and can’t return at the store??? What?? I sent them back, and after 4 weeks received them back saying they would not return because they had been worn. There was no signs of wear, other than broken thong. I called, and they refused to credit my account and I was told the warehouse has the final word. What??? I disputed on my credit card, and they said it was not returned within their return policy time frame. This was not a return, this is damaged merchandise. Do not ever shop at Saks online. There are plenty of other reputable stores for me to spend my money.

Worst company to do business with. Ordered a pair of sneakers, there were the wrong size, Shipped them back the very same day, got notification 3 days later that item as been received, Still no refund. It’s been 3 days over their allotted time which is 10-14 BUSINESS DAYS (That in itself in ridiculous). Now I have two cases open where they’re trying to find out why the refund hasn’t been issued! Once resolved I am canceling my card and NEVER shopping with them again.

I have never written a review for customer service in my life but I am floored by how bad the CS is at Saks. I ordered four coats and returned three all within their 30 day timeframe. I received notice all three items were received as well as refund amount. Two weeks later I received a second email that the refund had been processed, but for only two items. I have reached out three times and two different people from their team confirmed all three items were received back and I would get a refund for all three but they would create a case to be sure.
Well today I received a follow up on that case that they've made the decision to not refund (6 weeks after emailing me my return was received and would be processed). When I called customer service after this they said the warehouse has notified them something is wrong with the product and they will be returning it to me. The 'problem' with this is it was too big and I literally bought the smaller size the day of the return. Insane. Never again will I spend money here.

I bought a pair of Tom Ford booths months ago. And was gonna wear it for the first time last night and the zippers on both shoe was totally damaged. As you can see in the video.

I am not sure what is going on with Saks but they have become just AWFUL! I have been a very loyal customer for years. I purchased $1000 pair of Gucci heels, literally sent them back the day that I received them, they were sent to me with a few scuffs on the bottom of them but the block heel shows that it was obvious that they couldn’t have been worn maybe tried on in the store. I sent them back because of this but also they did not fit properly.
I phoned in several times inquiring about my credit. Beyond rude customer service on the phone as well as via text. I would hold on for at least an hour to speak with a manager and several times was hung up on. I waited over 30 days for my credit and one day the shoes appeared at my door, stating that they had been worn and I could not return them. Luckily I was traveling to a City that has a Saks store and they allowed me to return the shoes, and they too were dumbfounded that the shoes were returned to me from Saks. I purchased a $800 dress. It did not fit and I was terrified they would come up with a bogus reason for me not to return it, I was shocked that they charged me $10 to send it back. They took 10 plus days to credit my card. I am beyond shocked to see so many similar stories told on this site. I wonder if it’s some type of game they are playing. They have truly lost me as a longtime loyal customer.

Saks is definitely trying to scam their customers as I have read all these reviews. I bought an 1100 size 14 dress which was way too big. Sent it back and ordered size 10 of exact same dress which I kept and wore 3 months later. I received the size 14 dress back saying it is now now saleable bc the flimsy security sash (just ribbon attached with a flimsy button that child could take off) was not attached. Well, it was attached when I sent it back and now your saying it mysteriously is not? The dress is big and puffy and lots of tulle. Easily could become detached. Plus, I have proof that I kept the exact same dress in a different size. They refuse to budge even with all the circumstantial evidence I have. I assume the distribution dept employees are getting kickbacks based on all these reviews. The worst customer service EVER. I'm not done yet. Next step is small claims court. Someone needs to stop the madness.

I ordered a three row gold plated necklace for a total of $202.77. SFA sent a $60 bracelet that was a match to the necklace I wanted. This was an SFA error. I went through the return process and was told I would get my refund processed in 10-14 business days. At 14 business days, I called and was informed that the warehouse was not processing these returns correctly and I would have to wait another 5-7 business days for the issue to be escalated through finance. Nothing they could or would do to expedite this. In a normal customer service world, they would have recognized the cost of the item to SFA (~$10) and said, "Keep the bracelet for your trouble. We are sending out the correct item today." Instead I spent roughly an hour over three calls inquiring about this return. It is yet to be resolved. To protect my interest in this situation, I will now challenge the charge with American Express.

Beware of Saks! Their customer service is non-existent, and they clearly only care about $$$ at their customers' expense. My package was delivered to me cut open and the contents stolen. I opened a claim with Saks. A few days later, Saks told me there was nothing they could do because they checked the video of their distribution center, and the perfume was put in the box in the distribution center. This doesn't change the fact that the package was cut open and looted before it arrived. Instead of taking ownership of the issue by saying they would refund me or send me a new perfume and take care of figuring out what happened and filing a claim with the delivery company or otherwise handling through their normal process, as a "luxury" department store should, their only response (from multiple customer service reps) was that I should file a police report with my local police department. Excuse me, what??? Are you kidding me?
Filing a police report for something like this is useless at best, and it puts responsibility on me for something totally out of my control. I've never had such a poor experience with a company ever. I will truly never shop at Saks again and encourage all to instead go to Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, Macy's, Amazon, or LITERALLY ANYWHERE BESIDES SAKS. Congratulations, Saks. You've lost another customer for life. I hope the $160 perfume in my package was worth it...

Terrible web store. It is a separate Business from the brick and mortar and is handled as such. After receiving an item that was not as pictured I sent back, they have now had the item for over a month and still have not issued my refund. In the meantime, I continue to finance charges on the credit card I used to pay for the item. Every time I inquire, I’m told I need to wait another 14 days for my refund. This is unlawful and just business practices and this company should be greatly looked into for conducting business as such. Do NOT recommend.

This store online and in store but especially Saks.com is terrible. The worst customer service over the phone. Their customer service are all foreigners with an accent. They are completely RUDE & OBNOXIOUS. They will not lift a pink finger to help you. They treat the customers like garbage. I received a coupon but it just expired the day before and I wanted to use it because I just came back from a family emergency. I asked if they could honor it and he said no. "No. I cannot help you. There isn't anything. I Can't help." I got off the phone and Nordstrom had the exact item and I ordered it from Nordstrom. I will not give Saks.com any of money unless it is in my benefit. If something I want at any other store for the same price I will order from the other store. Only if there is a benefit from ordering from Saks.com will I order from this horrible store.

I purchased a top from SAKS and received it damaged with makeup stains- it was a stark white top. I contacted their customer service department who had me submit photos. After reviewing my photos, they confirmed the damage and reassured me my return shipping fee would be waived. Upon receiving my refund, my return fee was not waived. When I reached back out, I was told it's a "request" and not a "guarantee" that the return shipping is waived. I have photo evidence from the chat sessions showing their employee stating it would be refunded. They are liars and have no business integrity.

I do not recommend buying from the Saks off 5th online store. I am a former customer who was frustrated by that company's terrible customer service. In the last purchase, I made several orders with various items. One is missing. I made the claim and they practically made fun of me. They told me that they were not wrong about the shipments and that they trusted their warehouses.. That is, they told me that I am a liar and that I don't deserve credit. Summary: In addition to being disappointed, and feeling scammed, I feel that Saks Off 5th has lost the essence of excellence and respect for customers. This site violates the rights of consumers. If you don't want to feel disappointed and robbed, don't buy from the Saks Off 5th online store.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I purchased 3 pairs of pants for $1,300. Got them, didn't fit and was overall very dissatisfied with the pants. One of the pants was the wrong color as well. I returned all of them same day. I get back an email that they received my returns and I will be refunded. Next thing I know, I get refunded ONLY for 2 pairs of pants and they ship back to me the 3rd pair saying, as you didn't select "wrong color sent" when you received the pair of pants we cannot refund you. I called in 7 times at this point, and each rep says, that once the warehouse makes a decision there's nothing they can do about it. It's crazy, cause they sent me a SAKS pair of pants. With a SAKS tag on it, same company, same size, but wrong color and now won't take it back.
I'm HORRIFIED that a store as large as SAKS has such horrible customer service. I looked online and seems like MANY people have had the same experience with damaged or mismatched items delivered and then they won't accept the return. It's like some type of method for them to get rid of items. Simply ship it to the customer and when the customer wants to return it they simply say NO, TOO BAD. I WILL NEVER ORDER FROM THEM AGAIN.

Like many others, I too believe Saks Online is engaging in fraudulent activity. I returned two pairs of unworn shoes within 48 hours of receiving them and kept one pair which fit. Instead of getting refunds, I received them back nearly 60 days later with a letter stating no refunds would be issued as the items appeared to be damaged from wear. Absurd! I sent them back unworn and in the same condition as when they were received. I do not even know if these are the exact shoes which were originally sent to me.
The "damage" is some white cloudiness on the black bottoms. They do not resemble being worn, but being tampered with. By the way, the heel bottoms are in pristine condition- exactly the look of unworn shoes. I also compared them to the ones I kept and did wear; the bottoms of worn shoes look very different. Is Saks tampering with returned items and blaming customers in order to keep our money? There are too many of these complaints for it to be a coincidence. Is a class action lawsuit the answer to stopping them from doing this? Let's fight back!

I ordered a $562.50 cocktail dress online Saks Fifth Avenue which arrived March 23. I did not even put the dress on as I had already decided to keep the dress in another size which I had previously ordered from Saks. I sent the dress back on March 27 and waited for my refund. On April 27 I received a box from Saks with the dress and a note stating the dress "appears to be damaged from wear." I contacted Saks customer service via phone about the fact that I never wore the dress and was told I would receive a second return label.
Veronica, the Saks Customer Care Specialist assigned to my case, requested photos of the dress which I provided. She then came back and said the Saks distribution center had rejected my return in April due to "hair dander on dress" resulting in a "non salable condition." This is absolutely untrue as evidenced by the photos I submitted. I (politely) requested the name and contact information for someone in Saks management with authority to review and override this decision: I waited over a week to hear back but have been ghosted by the two Saks Customer Care Specialists I contacted via email.
As I have learned from reading about other Saks' online return complaints similar to mine, it appears that this company has a pattern and practice of rejecting legitimate returns and leaving online customers with no recourse to obtain their deserved refunds. This is a shoddy and fraudulent way to treat customers who do not live near a Saks Fifth Avenue retail location. I will never order anything from Saks Fifth Avenue again and I advise others to steer clear of them.

I ordered 2 evenings gowns from Saks total for the 2 gowns $2,471.70. I got the delivery on April 2, 2024. Both gowns were folded up, in a 14x14x14 box and inside of plastic bags, and wrinkled.

After 30 days past, I get a FedEx ground delivered left at my door, and Saks had returned both gowns with a note inside stating the gowns were damaged and therefore they will not refund my money.
I asked what was the damage, they said I had deodorant stains on both gowns. The supervisor at Saks and customer service representative said they did not see any stains, but they could not override the distribution center. I took pictures of the inside and the outside of both dresses because I had read another complaint and they only took pictures of outside of garment and not the inside and Saks said the stains was on the inside and they denied her claim. I sent inside and outside pictures showing no stains, and my claim was still denied. I am hoping Bank of America can help me.

Saks Fifth is absolutely horrible. I purchased a jersey jumpsuit online. The item came and I could tell I was probably going to return it. Saw that it had some loose threading along the seam and returned the item. The first time I sent it, they returned it stating the damage was caused by customer wearing the item. I called the representative, they told me I was supposed to email a picture prior to returning if the item was damaged. After stating nowhere in their return policy does it state that and emailing pictures of the damage, they sent me a second return label and case number. I get an email a few weeks later of denial of return, again saying it was worn but now saying it had dirt on the leg bottom.
I called again, the representative was kind but at the end of the day unhelpful as she kept repeating a third return would only result in the warehouse holding the item. She then said I could return it in the store if it's within 30 days, which it obviously was outside of the window. I have only purchased an item from Saks once before for earrings and was only doing so for the Amex credit. Will definitely have to let this credit go as this all was not worth it at all. Avoid this scam of a store.

I ordered Chanel cologne. I was given a tracking number. The information from the tracking number said that the item was delivered. The package was not delivered. Who knows where it is. Saks told me tough luck there was a tracking number and it said delivered. The problem is that they use a delivery service called Pandion. Look at the reviews for the. Terrible. Neither company cares if the delivery driver does their job and your package actually arrives. They could have at least offered an insurance product to go with the shipping. But no they have my money and couldn't care less. Last time I deal with either company

Saks is running a complete sham a business and has ZERO concern for honest business practices. They shipped me a damaged dress, which of course, I went through the proper channels to return all the while letting them know it was damage upon receipt. They have refused to refund the item because of the damage that THEY sent to me. Absolutely absurd and unacceptable. Has taken weeks to get proper assistance and they still are refusing. Spend your money elsewhere. Other retailers carry the same brand anyways who actually care about honest business practices.

Saks has absolutely atrocious customer service. I ordered a dress which turned out to not be a dress at all, due to the super sheer material. Every bit of my body was exposed. I tried to return the item and Saks said I had to pay $9.95 shipping. I explained that the item was NOT as described or pictured. In the photo, the “dress” appeared it would cover the parts that needed to be covered. In an online chat with a rep, the rep even admitted to me the item had been photoshopped. And they still will not accept my return, after admitting to false advertising and fraud. Absolutely atrocious customer service. Very sad to see how downhill this company has gone. Wouldn’t recommend spending a penny with these scoundrels.

Beware to make any returns they give you your return back, grab your item and swap it for a fake and recharge your credit card without notifying you.
It’s unprofessional and shows lack of appreciation for loyal customers, especially someone like me who has a shopping history. They need to be investigated.

Same experience as so many here, horrible. I ordered a dress, tried it on, and it was too big. I sent it back the next morning. The return was received by Saks two days later, but no refund was forthcoming. I called multiple times, and started a claim. Mind you this is all still going on almost a month after they received the dress back. Finally, this morning I receive an email indicating that my claim was denied. It took three calls to receive a reason. Their reason was the garment had deodorant stains. The garment was on my body for thirty seconds after a shower, and I had no products on my body to transfer onto the dress.
Of course it is now past the 30 day purchase window for returns because they strung me along for such a long time that I cannot take it back to the store where no one would be able to look me in the eyes and say this item has a thing wrong with it.

How to obtain a resolution! I too made the mistake of not heeding the advice mentioned by all of the buyer beware cases listed below. On February 21, 2024, I purchased the row Margaux 15. It was marked down to $2,595 plus tax bringing the total to $2,825.31. I made sure to select signature upon delivery. That’s a whole other debacle that warrants its own thread. In any case I received my order on February 26th. I was nervous and so I recorded myself unboxing the bag. To my horror, the bag had disgusting stains on the front of it, which was packaged facing down and was not visible when removing it from the dust bag. It also had the UPC tag torn from the plastic tie still attached to the bag but the tag was sitting on the outside of the dust bag but inside the plastic bag. It was used, had scratches on the opposite side, base and was warped. I was shaking with rage that I ran to my printer and printed the return label instantly.
I started taking pictures and screenshot images from the video recording as proof. I failed to check the inside of the bag, until I resumed recording of the interior and found a STORE RETURN RECEIPT inside the bag from 11/26/23 in which it had STORE # 601, TERM 233, ASSOC 254920 DEJA, TRN 66754 RETURN. 689/877/82346 11/18/23 776898 Return Reason listed as Does Not Want. I dropped off the package within an hour of receiving the package and then called Saks to complain about the condition. I gave her no opportunity to send me a return label. I also submitted all of my evidence. She claimed that she would escalate my case.
I received an email from Saks on 2/28/24 that they received my order and would process my return in 10-14 business days. On the 10th business day, I called Capital One and disputed the charge only to finally get refunded on day 14. Hope this helps someone.

At that point I called the saks credit card to dispute the charge and they only credited me partially because I used a gift card—but there was another item in my order that I did receive that the gift card should have been applied to—They were totally messing around to not have to credit as much. Then Saks.com had the nerve to rebut my claim by sending proof of delivery and a picture of the package at my doorstep—which only proves a delivery was made—not that the contents had the entire correct order inside the package so the credit card rebilled my account.

Saks.com has proven to be a prime example of deceitful and untrustworthy business practices, leaving customers like myself deeply disappointed and disillusioned. My recent experience with Saks.com has highlighted a blatant disregard for transparency, consumer trust, and ethical standards. One of the most egregious aspects of my experience was the handling of their gift card policy. Despite labeling the gift card as "free" in the order confirmation, Saks.com charged me for it and failed to disclose that the value of the gift card would be revoked if items associated with the order were returned. This lack of transparency is not only deceptive but also a clear violation of consumer trust.
Furthermore, the customer service response to my concerns was inadequate and dismissive. When I raised the issue of the gift card policy, I was met with vague and unhelpful responses, further highlighting Saks.com's disregard for customer satisfaction and loyalty. Additionally, the overall shopping experience on Saks.com was underwhelming. The website interface was outdated and cumbersome to navigate, making it difficult to find and purchase items. The lack of clear and concise information regarding their policies only added to the frustration.
In conclusion, my experience with Saks.com has been nothing short of disappointing. Their deceitful gift card policy, coupled with poor customer service and a lackluster shopping experience, has left me with a sour impression. I would strongly advise potential customers to exercise caution when considering shopping at Saks.com, as their business practices are far from ethical or trustworthy. Overall Rating: 0/5.

I thought that, maybe, I was the only one dealing with this, but after I went online and checked their reviews and saw how bad their reviews were (I have never seen an establishment have 1 star reviews on any platform you check) I contacted my Attorney General.

I purchased a Saint Laurent Bag on December 19, 2023. The bag was delivered on December 22 however it was a Christmas Present so I didn't open until December 25. After opening the box I realized this was not the bag I wanted so I went online and started the return process. Customer Service sent a return label and I returned the bag on December 27. I received an email from Saks customer service that they received the bag on January 2, 2024. I kept contacting customer service to see when the return will be processed so I can get another bag.
On January 20, 2024 I received a box. No letter, no explanation, no nothing, just the bag thrown in the box. I called Customer Service the next day on Monday to find out that Saint Laurent rejected the return because they said it was a scratch on the bag. My question - how did I put a scratch on a bag I only had for two (2) days? I don't understand and although I bought the bag from Saks because Saint Laurent rejected the return it was nothing they could do. Basically I am out of $1600.00 because I do not want the bag and I cannot return it or replace it. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM SAKS THAT YOU MIGHT RETURN. I know they do not care about their consumers but if there is enough complaints something will have to be done. They are robbing customers that have been loyal and who shop in their store. I wish it was something else I can do about this. If anyone reading this has any ideas please please let me know. Christmas ruined.

I purchased a pair of boots in a size 9. They were too small. I returned them, and purchased a size 9.5, which fit well. After Saks received my return of their size 9 boots, they shipped me back a pair of boots, size 8, stating that I wore those boots, and will not be refunded. I have tried numerous times to get this resolved so that I can be refunded. I have submitted photos per their request with proof that I never wore the boots, along with my original order. I am still hoping to get this resolved correctly in my favor. Until then, I will never purchase anything else from Saks.

I purchased a pair Uggs boots for baby online. I placed my order on Jan 2nd 2024. After 3 weeks of not receiving my order, I called customer service. They stated rest assure my package is on its way. I asked them what they can do for the inconvenience. They said I would receive a gift card for $25 in my email. After 1 week of not receiving my gift card, I got an email that the case was closed and I will be getting a refund for my boots. I never asked them to cancel my order!
I called them back and asked why my order was cancled and was told they lost my package. I also brought to their attention that I still have not received my gift card. I was told, after the agent spoke to the Supervisor, that there will be no gift card because the last agent I spoke never promised me a gift card. I was upset to hear this. I told them this is not acceptable. She went back and spoke to the Supervisor and after 10 mins told me they listened to the recording of my conversation with the last agent and she did promise to send a gift card. They emailed me a gift card for $25.
I called back and asked if they can place a new order for me for the same boots and waive the shipping charges since I have been so inconvenienced for this boots. After waiting almost month and losing my package and then telling me I was never promised a gift card, I was told no we can not waive the shipping charges for you. How ridiculous! I would never have expected this from a company like Saks Fifth Avenue! They have the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I will not be giving them my business anymore.

Hello, I am reaching out to you guys because I saw an article published by NBC Boston on 12/5/2023. It was about a man that had lost a 600 dollar pair of shoes because it was delivered to the wrong address. After many calls to the company, he had failed to receive his refund, and yet with a stroke of a pen, they refunded him back the 600 plus a sizable gift card for his troubles. I am going through a very similar situation. I bought a $1250 Alexander McQueen dress online. They failed to ship the belt with the dress (the dress came with a belt), and so I returned the dress over 7 months ago and we verified that Saks did in fact have the dress back in their warehouse.
We thought that of course a company like Saks would quickly refund our money but oh was I wrong. After over a dozen 1 hour calls and series of emails, I have still yet to receive my refund. I have been told a dozen that it was escalated by their refund team EVERY time I call and every time they would tell me 14 business days. That has transpired over and over again for the past 7-8 months. Please help me put a spotlight on Saks so people can be aware that a company like Saks is not keeping their end of the bargain. In this case, they have the returned item and they have taken 7-8 months to try and figure out how to get me my refund.
Please reach out to me, I really really really need the media's help. I have attached numerous e-mails saying they were going to refund me, saying they have the item in their return warehouse, and yet no action.... They even gave me a phony discount code which didn't even work and offered me $100 dollars as an online shop gift card.... Compensation for $1250 plus tax over 7-8 months, I would have made more money by taking that to a CD....PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!! I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!

I am compelled to leave this review after an extremely disappointing experience with SAKS. I placed an order (Order #**) on December 19, expecting timely delivery before Christmas. The order included two shirts and two t-shirts, with a delivery date set for December 24. The first part of my order, a "HUGO - Ermo Logo Casual Slim Fit Button Down Shirt," arrived as scheduled on December 23. However, the rest of the order, which included a "BOSS - Tessler Slim Fit Tee," "HUGO - Dallejo Logo Tee," and "BOSS - Roan Slim Fit Print Shirt," supposedly delivered on December 28 (Tracking #**), was never received. Despite the website's claim of delivery, the items were nowhere to be found.
I reached out to SAKS customer service, expecting a prompt and fair resolution. To my dismay, their response was far from satisfactory. Not only did they fail to resolve the issue, but they also left me without any reasonable recourse. As a result, I am without the merchandise I paid for and, more importantly, out of pocket for these undelivered items.
What adds to the frustration is the lack of a proper platform to address or escalate this issue within SAKS. As a customer, it is disheartening to see such negligence and disregard for consumer rights. The inability to get a response or a refund for undelivered goods is unacceptable and reflects poorly on the company's commitment to customer satisfaction.
This experience has significantly diminished my trust in SAKS. I am left with no choice but to warn potential customers through this review. I rate SAKS 1 star for their failure to deliver the promised goods, their inadequate customer service response, and their inability to provide a satisfactory resolution. I hope this review serves as a call to action for SAKS to improve their service and address customer grievances more effectively.

I bought a coat from Saks.com in March of 2023. The website advertised the coat at 50% off using a code. I used the code, but it wasn't accepted during the purchase. I spoke to several online reps, one of whom received approval to honor the code and credit my card for half the coat. I noticed that my card was never credited, but I was charged again for half the coat!
For months now, I have called and emailed many times to receive a credit for the erroneous charge to my account. Not to mention, the 50% code still needs to be honored. To date, I have paid 1.5 times the original price of the coat. Each time I speak to someone, they escalate me to someone else who seems to drop the ball. I have even disputed the purchase with my credit card company, but the matter is now outside of the timeframe for disputes. It is a complete mess. The customer service in the store told me that they always hear how online and phone customer service is of a lower standard than the store. I want a resolution. But I can't get consistent service. This is not the same Saks Fifth Avenue that I once knew.

So I ordered Amiris in November! Apparently Saks is shipping with a new company. Veho? Well long story short the shipper contacted Saks and myself to state they delivered the item to the wrong address so I let Saks know. Saks said they was aware. Despite the fact that their shippers lost the package you’d think that’ll matter. No. They still tell you wait 10 business days just for an approval that I was already told was guaranteed. Fast forward 10 business days passed. They approve it and say I need to wait 14 business day to receive it. I waited 14 business days for them to say they get 5 extra business days. I wait those days. Nothing was ever done. I was told it’s been escalated to the back office upper management and finance. No one has responded with in all this time.

I have talk to the supervisors and everyone at Saks Fifth Avenue job is to tell you a LIE about your refund or your product hoping that you will give up on retrieving any of your money back from them! I will not this store keep lying on my bank that I have a letter from my banker Samantha at Topline Federal Credit Union Bank stating to this supervisor Maria that Topline Federal Credit Union DO NOT DO NO HARD DECLINE! My banker Samantha also told her send the money to our client the same way you all at Saks Fifth Avenue sent my client her $9.95!
Today is Monday and I have my first consultation with an attorney to proceed with a lawsuit against this Corporation Saks Fifth Avenue! This Corporation have all these foreigners working for them who are stealing our identity and also our money. Saks Fifth Avenue have business has went down to the dirt. I cannot believe that this multibillion dollar Corporation is trying to STEAL $570 from me and it's been since December of 2023 is very heartbreaking that I have to go through all these channels to try to get the money that I worked hard for to pay for these boots that I returned to Saks Fifth Avenue and have all the proof in the world to show the judge and any attorney that wants to see it!
It's very sad that no one is standing up for people that's on this website this ConsumerAffairs website. It is very disturbing that all they want is reviews but no one is reaching out to us to try to solve this issue with this Corporation! Well you see I'm not going to sit here and just twiddle my thumbs and wait on somebody to finally come out and do a class action lawsuit. I'm the type of individual that get down to the gritty and when I say I get down to the gritty that mean I'm coming for Saks Fifth Avenue for breaching their contract for stress, mental anguish. I'm going to sue them when I speak to my attorney today. I don't even want 570 no more for all this stuff I've been going through. I need 5 million!
Updated on 01/14/2024: Good morning All, my name is Brenda ** the reason for this new review is because I just got off the review with a Christina on January 14th 2024 at approximately 4:00 a.m. I mean it's very sad that they constantly telling me that my bank would not accept the refund but yet they sent $9.95 to my bank of the $570 that they owe me! Something need to be done. They got the merchandise back from me. I have all the emails. I have my bank statements. Also my banker Samantha spoke to one of the agents and the agent told my banker she was lying at my banker say on January 11 2024 Saks Fifth Avenue only sent my client $9.95 to her account and for the record our bank will NEVER keep any type of refunds from our clients!
This disrespectful Foreigner told my banker that they never sent no $9.95 but my banker looking dead at it on the records and also I'm looking at it on my bank statement so I say that individual need to get together and form a class action lawsuit against this place. Enough is enough. Basically they stealing from individuals and they getting away with it. Stealing is a crime and over $500 is a felony.
Original Review: On December 29th 2023 Saks Fifth Avenue received the Burberry boots that I paid $579.95 for to their return center. After they receive their boots back they start tragically leaving me emails stating that my bank would not receive the refund back! So I contact my bank and my bank was on a three-way with me with the Saks Fifth Avenue customer service rep and told her the rap that her name is Samantha and she is from Topline Federal Credit Union and her client meaning mean never received any attempts from Saks Fifth Avenue for a refund. Also she stated our bank would never turn down any of our client's refund from anyone.
After that the young lady said that they going to give me a gift card. I don't want to gift card. I want my $570 back that they owe me. If they could put $9.95 in my account they can put my $570 back into my account! I am blown away because this is a multi-billion dollar Corporation Saks Fifth Avenue, have been in business for decades and been making good money offer individuals and for this to happen I don't blame Saks Fifth Avenue. I blame you there hiring and then also how disrespectful girl representative is. All these foreigners are very disrespectful. It is. They are the one who stealing people identity and trying to steal $570 for me pretending like they gave me a gift card and I never received any gift card and I do not want the gift card.
I could not fit anything from this store. I have sent back two pairs of shoes that I could not fit. They too little. They run too small so why would I want that gift card? Give me my money back what they took from my bank card! I have contacted our attorney general Keith Ellison and after Keith Ellison contact the corporate office and the corporate office don't give me my money I will be suing this Corporation

As I approached to the front desk a lady stared at me and said “Do you see people in front of you?” while she could’ve said “The line is on your left”.
Then as she doing the return, she asked if I got the wrong item, I said yes. She said the policy has changed and I have to call the customer service to get a case number, or I can send it directly back to them. The lady on the phone was really nice though, she made it fast and gave me my case number, then I went back to the lady at the store. She asked me for the order number and the case number, I showed it to her, then she raised her voice at me: “Could you just read it to me!” like it’s my responsibility?!? Is that how I should be treated? I spent money then gotta take my time drove all the way to the store to fix the mistake that I did not make, and that’s how she treated me?

My husband ordered a purse for me, and one of the zippers does not work. I wanted to simply exchange it for the same product with a working zipper, but was informed that Saks does not offer exchanges. Instead you must return the item and reorder it. The problem is there's now a price difference, but their "system" won't allow them to adjust the price to what we originally paid for the item - so we're penalized because they sent a defective product.

On November 26, I placed an order with Saks Fifth Avenue totaling $453.11. The order was shipped in two packages. Issue with the Second Package: The first package, delivered on December 1st, contained 3 dresses and arrived without issues. The second package, delivered on December 4th, was supposed to contain a box of facial cotton and three lipsticks. Instead, it contained only the facial cotton and a water gauge, addressed to a different individual inside the package addressed to me. Notably, I did not videotape the package opening, but I took a picture of the contents immediately after discovering the incorrect items.
Initial Resolution Attempt: I immediately reported the issue to Saks customer service on December 4th. They instructed me to return the incorrect item for investigation and promised a refund upon its return. I complied, sending back the water gauge and emailed them the picture I took as evidence of the mix-up. Refund Request Denied: Despite following Saks' instructions and providing evidence, my refund request was rejected. The incorrect item was returned to me on December 24th, with a statement that it is not a Saks product. A subsequent appeal over phone call for investigation and refund on December 25th was also denied. It's the retailer's responsibility to ensure that customers receive the correct items as per their order. If there is an error in fulfillment, the retailer should address it at their own expense.

I bought a Tory Burch handbag from Saks Fifth online. It came but the seam on one side was very poorly done and the leather on that side was torn. I used the online text system to see if I can exchange. One say I could then midway got disconnected. I opened a new text with a new rep. This rep said I could not exchange at all. I was confused. I then called the online number and spoke with a rep. She said I can return at a store which is a hour away from where I live or I can return the product and “possibly” may exchange once I send them pictures of the issue. She would not start the re order for me until the warehouse received my return product. I was fine with that and asked her to send me an email where I can send the pictures of the purse back for proof of why I want to return. She said she sent it already. I kept waiting and waiting and still nothing came over except her return form for print out.
From this experience, what I gathered is that Saks fifth online does not want to work with customers to exchange even it is a defected high end product. They would lie and said that they are willing to look at the problem but would not provide a way for the customer to follow through with what is needed to be done for an exchange. They would make the customer drive out of their way and be inconvenienced to fix a problem that stem from their defected product.

And even if I did would it have taken 17 days to receive my item! And why has my package been opened and why can I not get a response for the damage? The blue and bindings were gone so it opened up and spilled all over. Support is trying to find any reason to make you go away. I was severally overcharged for shipping and a "special handling fee" and duties and taxes that is 2X what Canada Border Services Agency estimates. My order grew from $326 to $493! And days later they reduced the price from $326 to $275. Saks will do nothing to listen to my dispute. Nothing at all.

So I ordered an expensive coat for my 5 year old son. After a week of not receiving a package I emailed the shipping partner MAERGO. They responded by saying my address was inaccessible. After going back and forth with their delivery partner they finally admitted in an email that they lost my package. So I contacted Saks’ customer service to issue a refund and they said that technically I had to wait an additional 7 days just in case my package mysteriously made it to my address (after they admitted to losing my package). Ironically on the 7th day (before I could file a claim to receive a refund) their delivery partner claimed my package was delivered to my exact address. (LIES!!!) I asked for documented proof of delivery’s but of course they couldn’t provide any.
I order multiple packages from many retailers and Saks Fifth Avenue is the only store to say my address was inaccessible. They denied my claims and now I don’t have a coat and I’m out $400. All I wanted was a refund for a coat I never received. They have the worst and I mean absolute worst customer service on the planet. They will agree with you but will have no solutions to your problems. If you read the reviews you can see this is what they do to avoid giving refunds. THIS IS A WARNING.

I ordered a birthday gift for my niece from Saks. I found what I wanted, waited for a good time to purchase the item, and I was very excited to give it to my niece for her sweet 16. The item was never shipped. I spoke to the carrier and it was 100% Saks's error. I check for days to make sure it shipped, and it never did. Their customer service is a joke. They refused to reship the correct item, just refund the order and they said I could purchase again at the current price, which was more than I paid originally. 15 days after I was supposed to receive the item, they finally agreed to match the original price, and now the item is sold out. Their chat option is not helpful, the person I called on the customer service line was no help at all, and there is no email option. I would give it zero stars if I could. DO NOT SHOP AT SAKS.

After innumerable calls and hours on the phone, Saks finally credited my account for the purchase price of the item but not the sales tax. On 9/11/23, after many additional calls regarding the unrefunded sales tax, I received an email to the effect that I had been approved for a “tax exemption” - which makes no sense. It is now 9/27/23 and I have yet to receive the refund for the taxes. This is my most frustrating experience ever with Saks but not the only one.

I also reached out to the company through instagram and Twitter. I was told they would escalate my situation to higher for investigation.
Three times, I’ve received a generic letter by the company telling me their refusal to refund my purchase was due to counterfeit reasons and there is nothing more they can do. They apologized for the inconvenience. I spent $1,095 I on these shoes and they refuse to refund the money. I even asked them for the evidence they used to determine the shoes were fake and have gotten nothing back except for the generic letter. I feel completely violated. Since I couldn’t prove that the inauthenticity of the shoes was not my fault, I was doomed from the very moment the shoes were delivered to my doorstep.

I'm very unhappy and dissatisfied with the Saks Fifth Avenue online shopping experience. Here is the background story as to why. I have an upcoming wedding to attend which was about a month away when I ordered my first dress from Saks, a Lidee Gigi Satin Pleated Maxi in the color punch. I figured this would give me enough time to try it on and see if I liked it. Package arrives about a week later, opened it up and the dress details are different. I read the description on my item slip and it says Lidee Gigi Smocking Gown in punch. I gave Saks the benefit of the doubt, maybe an employee just packaged the wrong item, but still I was feeling a bit stressed since the wedding was coming up soon. I spoke with the online chat/phone call and all they could offer me was a return label and I'd have to order the dress again.
I immediately ordered the same dress with little doubt in my mind. Waited yet another week and to my extreme disappointment, it was the EXACT same situation! I contacted customer service, sent them photos of proof (again) asking if they could locate the actual dress and have it somehow expedited because at this point it was ridiculous! I received no help other than offering to send me my return label. Either Saks Fifth Avenue is intentionally lying to customers by having another dress on their website and then sending another to make sales or it's a sku/stock issue.
I've decided to not purchase online from Saks Fifth Avenue again and considering all these other negative reviews I can't recommend them to anyone else. I'm sure they were an outstanding store years ago, it's a VERY different story now. What really bothered me about all this is they weren't solving the issue for myself, but also for the website for other potential customers who might have the same experience when ordering. They simply don't care... Just another big money guzzling company with no intention to problem solve.

I have ordered the same pair of shoes twice over the past couple of weeks. The shoes are sold as brand new but both pairs have arrived obviously damaged AND worn. This is really disappointing because something is going on at Saks and customer fulfillment that has not been the standard over the years. If you are going to sell USED items and then mark them as FINAL sale, customers have a right to be informed about the quality of the items. Some sites such as Free People clearly mark used items as gently used or gently worn. Saks needs to do the same because even if an item is on sale, that is NOT a customer's expectation that you're sending them used worn out junk.

7 Months of chasing Saks representatives to secure refund for merchandise returned!! Over a period of 2 months I ordered many dresses trying to find something suitable for a wedding. Besides receiving merchandise I didn't order was returning merchandise and Saks receiving center not processing all the returns. Repeatedly I had to provide tracking numbers, and even then securing the credit refund was delayed. Constantly customer service would say 5-7 days, someone else would say 14 day, another rep would escalate that would add another time frame. Eventually I disputed the charge on the credit card so that interest and late fees would be avoided as I was making minimum payments for merchandise I didn't have.
The grand problem was a dress I ordered in 3 different sizes. All 3 were returned separately. Credit issued for 2 but one dress went missing valued at $895 and after dozens of calls to Saks customer service I emailed Saks corporate and 2 different "Ambassadors" responded. Incredibly they both had wrong information and there I was again giving a timeline of facts and proving the return. The whole experience was beyond frustrating with so much time and energy spent correcting their mistakes. Incompetence at Saks Fifth Ave is a level I've never experienced.

Saks customer service is the absolute worst I have ever dealt with. Do not shop here - save yourself time and hassle by shopping elsewhere- anywhere else would be better. Their customer service agent would not allow me to change the shipping address on an order I placed 20 minutes after I placed the order. She told me the only option was to cancel my order and place a new order for a similar item. She told me she was canceling my order so I placed the new order. The original order was never actually canceled and Saks customer service has refused to refund my money.

Foolishly, I thought purchasing a birthday gift for my daughter from what I thought was a luxury goods store would be a classy and fun surprise. Wrong. The ship date represented on the website was a key factor in my purchase - to get it to her timely. It wasn't even out of processing by the stated ship date so I called to ask for it to be cancelled. Was told that wasn't possible - that to get a refund I had to return the gift unopened by getting Saks to call the shipper to return to shipper. Which I did timely. But it took many calls and numerous run-arounds to get a partial refund first and the remaining refund later. Six weeks in all to resolve a mistake that Saks made by misrepresenting information on their website. I will never shop with Saks again - in-store or online. They're horrible. This is why people shop on Amazon.

March 1 2023, I ordered a package of 2 Versace brief boxers and only 1 came in the package. Then my nightmare began. I called 5 times in total. Was told a file, investigation, expedited check had been submitted. Was told I would get a refund or the missing item would come to me. So I waited and waited. Nothing happened! They told me either the file was never submitted or the file was under process. They kept telling me it would be resolved within 5-7 business days. Then today, after 5 weeks, I called and talked with a supervisor, who had the audacity to offer me 15% off my next order. I technically paid 135$ for a 80$ boxer. I asked her if it sounds right to her that I would buy something else for 15% off. All she said was 15% off next order. As if I was gonna buy from them again. Such stupidity I have never seen in my life. First review I ever wrote. Be prepared everyone and avoid this horrible company as much as you can!

Saks’s customer service is the worst of the worst and no one in the company is doing anything about it. It’s shocking! I requested a price adjustment the before the item was delivered because it went to the sale when it is in the delivery process. The claim was approved right away. I received two emails confirming it is approved and it’s pending for to be posted to my account. However, It has been two months and no refund. I called the customer service 2 times and they told me to wait couple more business days because they see it in the system that it has been approved.
Then, Yesterday I received an email with same case number which is on “refund confirmation” number, stating that “After conducting a thorough investigation of your missing item claim, we regret to inform you that we are unable to issue you a refund for this request.” I responded at the same second, "What missing item claim are you taking about?! I have only one claim for price adjustment which is approved. Here are the emails. I’m waiting for my refund." Then I called them. Now they are saying there is a mistake on their end but the case is closed. They cannot do anything. You gotta be joking me!!! I have never experienced such a SCAM customer service.

I placed an order for some Gucci tennis shoes on November 24. I requested signature required on delivery by FedEx. The shoes were sent out and FedEx delivered them to a wrong address. There was no signature required by FedEx even though I had requested it when I made the purchase. Contacted customer service when I saw the picture from. FedEx was not my front door. Advised FedEx that my shoes were delivered to the wrong address. They put a claim in and said it would take 7 to 14 business days. Customer service tells me that says FedEx shows they delivered the shoes. That I’m still responsible for them. I contacted customer service back again.
Sent them a picture of the front door that FedEx left the package at also circled signature required which was not done. Sent them a picture of my front door that does not match the door that the shoes were left at. FedEx has stated there’s nothing more they can do since they delivered the package (mind you not at my house). And Saks fifth is saying that since the package was delivered, I will not get a refund. So I’m left with paying for shoes that I never received. That is $800 down the drain for some product that I have not gotten. I have sent them proof showing that they did not delivered to my house Based off the pictures that FedEx sent and what my front door looks like. Or common sense would tell you if the door it was delivered to his black and the door that is my front door is green that obviously it was delivered to a wrong address. But Saks fifth obviously doesn’t have common sense.
In detail the first claim I put it was on December 7. It was declined on December 8. I did not know it was decline on December 8 because every time I would call to get the status they would tell me it was still in review. They also could not seem to get my email address correct so I could get emailed information on the claim, but they got my email address, correct to send me emails every day to buy products from them. I called them on December 21. They said it was still a review, call back on 26 December and was told it was declined on December 8. Put in a new claim on December 26 and the person I put the claimant put it in incorrectly so it automatically got declined.
On December 27 a new claim was put in. December 28. Spoke to a supervisor. Was told I should receive a refund within 14 business days as I provided screenshots of the front door from FedEx, my front door, showing where I requested signature required, and FedEx did not do a signature required. On December 31 I received an email saying that my claim was rejected again. I was left paying $800 for a pair of shoes that were delivered to the wrong address, no signature completed as requested, never buy from these people. Even if you have proof that you do not receive delivery, they still make you pay for it.

If I could rate this entire experience ZERO stars I would. On December 29, 2022 I ordered a pair of unisex sneakers (Men 7.5/W9). I received a M-9, understandable error, so immediately prepared a return and re-ordered. Round 2 - received the same incorrect size, so I contacted CS to work on a resolution and the agent was helpful, sent a note to the warehouse and suggested perhaps I could select a different size??? Ummm, but I wear this size (W9). I promptly packaged for return and reordered (persistent, yes, but maybe 3d time would be a charm - NO). Same issue. I called CS again and was told to make the return at the store because they would have the size I needed and could make an exchange. No...they don't. I have been to the store (the reason I ordered online). I did go to my local store - the wonderful assistants there were equally as appalled, but gladly refunded me and placed the order IN STORE in hopes for a better experience. NOPE!! 4th set of shoes still the wrong size.
I know, maybe this is a sign, but now I am driven by principle. GET IT RIGHT SAKS!! Back to CS #1 - I did in fact order a W 8.5 - test run and STILL WRONG?? What is even happening. Contacted CS AGAIN - agent answer..."Maybe you should not order this item - We may not have it in stock, so we send the wrong item?" No, someone is not paying attention and your script is awful and insulting. I even submitted photos of the shoe box to help clarify. CS at Target is better than this. I definitely would not have ever expected this caliber of service from Saks..ever. Clearly things are very bad. Finally waiting on hold for perhaps an hour now to speak with a CS manager...again simply on principle. I will not attempt to get this right because in short order the size I need will be on sale because they have too much inventory since the warehouse folks simply cannot get it right. This cannot be an isolated incident. Not 5 times.

According to Fedex tracking, it was delivered back to Saks 5th Avenue & signed by a 'D Taylor' on 11/23/22. I called a week later & spoke to an associate regarding my refund and she told me they see they received the package but would take up to 14 business days to receive a refund. I have now waited 5.5 weeks and still have not received a refund.
I called into Saks on 12/31/22 and spoke to a customer service associate who first said he would have to escalate this case and it would be another 7 days. I told him it's frankly unacceptable. I informed him that he can see the package was received - I've already waited 5.5 weeks which is more than reasonable. I don't want to wait another 7 business days. I asked for a Supervisor. The associate put me on hold & came back 2 minutes later & started repeating himself. I informed the associate that I've heard him tell me this three times already and I am still holding for a supervisor. The rep put me back on hold & I waited 10 minutes.
A supervisor by the name of 'Jesus' came on the phone and informed me that Fedex may have delivered the package to the wrong location or possibly that it wasn't scanned into their return bin. I argued that it had signature confirmation and was signed by a 'D Taylor', which is very unlikely to be delivered to the wrong address. Jesus stated that they have went ahead & filed a claim with Fedex and escalated this case to the distribution center & asked me to wait 7 additional business days.
This was my first time experiencing Saks Fifth Avenue and I will never do business with them again. I understand *slight* hiccups, but this is ridiculous at this point. I always assumed Saks was a high end retailer that had great customer service. But is literally the worst experience I've had with a retailer in years. I understand having to follow policy & procedure, but given it's been 5.5 weeks since it was delivered to them, and this is my second call in... you think there would be leeway or a decision that could be made to take care of the customer. I will not only NOT recommend this company to anyone, but I will never shop here again.

On 12/4/22 I ordered a pc of jewelry from SaksOff5th online. On 12/5/22 the order was picked up by FedEx. Saks gave me a tracking number and I can see that the order hasn't moved since 12/5. It was supposed to be delivered within about 5 days. As of 12/15 (10 days) still no order. I contacted Saks who told me I had to contact FedEx and take it up with them. Didn't seem right to me but I contacted FedEx who told me the item has been missing for over 7 days and is therefore considered lost and I need to go through the retailer.
I went back to Saks and they would not send a replacement. They were willing to transfer me to sale so I could order another one but the sale was over so I'd have to pay more for the item. Saks also refused to issue me a credit on my credit card and told me I had to file a claim with Saks which I did. They said they'd back to me in 10-17 days. This is terrible customer service. I asked several times for a supervisor and was told there was no one else I could speak to. I will never order anything from Saks or Saks Off 5th again. Right now I'm out $577 so I guess I'll dispute the charge with my bank.

No word on the other more expensive item. I have now had 3 calls and one online chat with customer service. No one gives me a consistent explanation. I’ve been told that the return was being sent back to me, that it had to be sent to a different vendor because it was a “drop ship” item, and that a case was being filed to refund me because it was lost. Thus far, I’m still out my money. Saks has essentially stolen my money.

I purchased a dress online and when it arrived, I immediately tried it on but it didn't fit well so I packed it neatly back in the box, attached the return label and tracked the shipment back to Saks which they received 2-3 days later. They sent an email confirming that they received the return and my refund would be processed back to my original form of payment.
Several days passed and I never received the refund. I actually forgot about it until I got a notice on my Amex that there was a credit from another retailer and I thought that I hadn't gotten such a notice for Saks. So I checked my card to make sure and called the customer service to find out what was going on. I tried the online chat feature first but apparently their tech sucks even worse than their service so I ended up having to call in. The rep I spoke to says that the refund could take up to 15 days. Let me pause here to say that is absolutely ridiculous. I mean they took my payment in nanoseconds and they received their return almost immediately after shipping it to me and it takes 15 days... in the year 2022... to process a return?! Oh please!
Sure enough, 15 days passed and no refund so I called back. I spoke to Kendra who promised to "research" the matter and told me that she would have to process the refund manually. But of course, 5 days later, no refund. So I called back and spoke to someone else who told me that I was already refunded but it wouldn't show up until my credit card's next billing cycle - which makes absolutely no sense since Saks does not control the billing cycle of my AMEX. If they processed the refund, it should show up on my AMEX at most within a few days. Asked to speak to a manager but I am guessing it will take several more calls and weeks before I get my money back. I may even need to file a police report at this point. BUYER BEWARE!!! Nothing at Saks is unique to Saks - you can find the same stuff at Nieman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom, etc. DO NOT EVER SHOP HERE!!!!

These people are a complete joke. They have not issued my return and they have had the product since April 14, 2022. They keep saying it will be sent and won’t even send me an email at all! I will have to go to BBB and my bank for help.

How the heck are you idiots going to take my dam $4100+ for a BVLGARI watch… AND GIVE ME AN EMPTY WATCH BOX IN THE MAIL!! I have never seen any store more pathetic than this.. “top-notch” my behind, SERIOUSLY!! Couldn’t even replace my watch, then want to say it’s going to take 7-14 days for my refund. THAT'S BULL CRAP!! You ** idiots need to learn customer service as well, don’t tell me to stop yelling when it's my money on the line for a damn empty box you decided to send without my watch which is now out of stock. So thanks a lot dummies.
