Pre Black Friday shopping on Thursday I decided to buy a Nintendo Bundle at Target online store. It was not available to be shipped so I had to pick it up at a store an hour distance from my house. After entering my credit card, got my confirmation and decided to go pick it up during the weekend. On my way to the store on Monday I looked my emails looking for the confirmation and for my surprise I got an email cancelling my order because it was not picked up by Saturday. I am very upset, this is the first time I order something to be pick up at a store and I would never imagine they will cancel in 48 hours.
Target should be more specific and transparent at the time you place an order. It should specify the timeframe to pick up the merchandise, not 2 days later on a separate email. Immediately I called customer service, after an hour waiting an agent picked up, apologize and explained that they did not charge my card until I pick up my order. I requested them to deliver my order due to availability online, she put me on hold to verify if she could do anything, after waiting for another 20 minutes the call was dropped. I called again, waited 50 minutes, someone answer the call and it was dropped again. I am on my third attempt, while writing this review, waiting now for 23 minutes...

I spent all day trying to order a television online, every store I looked at had at least 1 in stock. Every time I ordered I would get an email sometimes 2 hrs later stating it wasn’t available. I tried ordering from 4 different Target stores. Now I have missed out on the Cyber Monday sale. Very disappointed with Target.

I ordered 4 bar stools online from Target. The order requested 26 inches bar stools as advertised. However, when I received the items -- the boxes were marked in large letters on the outside of each box 24 inches. I contacted Target and attempted to exchange the items and I was advised that they did not have the 26-inch bar stools in stock. I returned the items as instructed within 2 days of the receipt of the wrong items. I was instructed that it would be 2-3 weeks before I received my refund. No apology for intentionally and deliberately sending the wrong item.
I contacted Target at the end of the 3rd week and they advised me that a refund had been made. Incorrect! No Money returned!!! Target asked me to call my bank! The money was not refunded to my account as stated. I went through 4 service technicians before I was advised that this matter would require the review of a specialty department who would contact me within 24 hours regarding the issue of the refund. That did not happen.
I received an email response today. Stating it would be another 10-14 days before a refund could be made -- that would total approximately 6 weeks. The timetable to return my money is unacceptable. I patiently waited the 3 weeks and Target has had possess of the returned items for 4 weeks. To be told by Target to wait an additional 2 to 3 weeks, is a total disrespect to me as a customer. I try to work with service providers. I was advised that someone would contact me directly from the Specialty Team in light of this situation. But to receive an email advising me that it would take an additional 10 to 14 more days is disrespectful and a total disregard to the customer.
Target received their property and if they had sent what I ordered -- instead of dumping their stock. Target never had the items I requested in stock and Target was not authorized to switch it out and then hold my funds. The Research team has no number and as I have been told they are very busy. Really!!! Target is a large company and the staff to resolve issues. They should do better. Word of advice Beware of ordering online. I went to the Target Website in Customer Support and I was switched to 4 separate clerks who all referred me to some else. I chatted with a high level supervisor and after about 45 minutes I was referred back to the “Research Team.” WOW! Coal for Target.

I made an online purchase for a Graco travel system on November 8th of this year. This item was to be picked up at the Target store on Bosque Blvd in Waco Texas on November 20th. When the delivery date came I received an email stating that my order would be delayed, I found this strange because it had almost been two weeks from when I ordered the item. Friday, the 23rd came, my order still did not arrive and at this time my sister's baby was born three days before! I called customer service and was told that the 24th was in fact the last day and that my order would arrive on Saturday.
When my order still had not arrived on Saturday I called customer service once again where I was put on hold several times as they attempted to figure out where my order was. When the representative came back on the line, they simply asked if I would like to cancel the order. I explained to the representative that it was never my intention to cancel anything, I just wanted my item to be delivered to the store I chose in a reasonable amount of time. The representative then repeated for the second time that I would receive an email when the item was ready to be picked up, but the representative was unable to give me a date when the item would be delivered to this Target location. I did receive an apology from the representative, however, I do not think that will suffice. This extreme incompetence is unacceptable and I will be sure to warn people to make online purchases elsewhere.

Do not purchase Target e-gift cards. It is a total nightmare. Sometimes they do not get delivered and customers end up having to spends days – weeks dealing with their unprofessional and rude customer service center trying to get their purchased good sent to the recipient. Read the reviews online and you will see what I am talking about.
I purchased an e-gift card on November 19, 2018 for a friend who is having a baby. I received an email confirmation that the e-gift card was sent at 9:26 am on November 19th. The gift card was not received. The regular email inbox and junk email inboxes were checked and the gift card was not delivered to either inboxes. The email address that I sent the gift card to was correct.
Target's website says that gift cards usually are delivered within 4 hours and I had received an email confirmation stating that the gift card was sent, so I decided to call customer service. I called and said that the gift card was not delivered, so I asked for it to be resent or for Target to issue me a refund. The first representative I spoke to said that gift cards can take up to 24 hours to be delivered. I then asked why does the website state that it takes 4 hours then? She said that the website does not say that. I then asked to speak to a supervisor because on the website it says that it takes 4 hours. The representative eventually transferred me after I asked several times to speak to someone else.
The second representative I spoke to named Varaan was not a supervisor, she was a specialist. So, the first representative ignored my request and just transferred me to another representative. When she transferred me she made it like she was transferring me to a supervisor. I told Varaan my issue and I again asked for the gift card to be resent or for a refund. She said that she wouldn't resend the gift card or issue me a refund, because gift cards are nonrefundable. I asked if there was someone higher than her that I can speak to. She kept insisting that there wasn't and kept repeating that she was a "Specialist".
I kept asking her who was above her that I could speak to and she insisted over and over that she was the highest person and that I was speaking to someone at Target's corporate offices. Finally, she did mention setting up a call back with a supervisor. I then asked her why would she lie and keep insisting that she was the highest person I could speak to when I asked her multiple times to speak to someone else. She said that she didn't lie. That she told me she was a "Specialist". She then offered to set up a callback with a supervisor that would take 24 - 48 hours. I declined and said that I would wait on hold until a supervisor was available. She then hung up on me.
Both representatives were extremely unhelpful and did not resolve my issue. They both put me on hold multiple times throughout the exchange as well. The gift card still has not been delivered, and it is now 48 hours later, but Target charged my account for the $50.00. At this point I would like the money for the gift card refunded to me, because I ended up having to buy the person a different gift since the e-gift card I bought from Target was not delivered as promised on their website. They should not just get to keep my money without actually delivering the service I paid for.

It took FOREVER to get the item for pick up In Store (8 days) and then I got lost in time to pick it up (5 days) then I show up in the store To pick it up. They said it was nothing for me There to pick up. When I checked in my email I got a message saying my purchased was canceled. I don’t have a Target in my town.

Alert to all Grandparents, aunts, uncles etc...if you purchase a digital video game you CANNOT RETURN IT. This is not documented on the item when you click on it and place in your basket. To find this out you would need to scroll down screen to review more information. Most of us don’t read the details of a “Pokémon” video game. We click and pay. Waste of money.

I had problems with one store in which the manager seemed to be letting things slip badly. I managed to get someone in their so-called guest services department on the phone. This person took down my information and then said she would forward my complaint to the store manager. Since the store manager was, in fact, the problem, this wasn't going to help. That's when I discovered that there is no way to escalate a complaint! And that's when I stopped shopping at Target. But I still have a Target credit card, with a large outstanding balance. I ran into some trouble and got my account put on a payment plan.
Less than two months later, with all the payments having been made, they reported me as delinquent to the credit bureaus. They claim that this was a system error and that they'll fix it - in a few days. No offers of any compensation for my trouble. When I asked for an address to send a legal demand letter, the rep refused and hung up on me. It seems they'd rather push me to get a lawyer and sue them than let me talk to someone who might offer an acceptable resolution. Well, if that's what they want...

On Nov 14, 2018 Target online has LG 65UK6090PUA advertised for $899. It shows that it can't be shipped to my zip code. On Nov 15, 2018, the same TV is advertised for $599 (sale ends today). Again it says: "Shipping to 73134 no longer available, buy in store." I visit the local store, I show the online ad that says it is available at the local store. The employee looked it up and there were 7 available at $899. The manager refused to match the price stating that since it is "no longer available for shipping" they do not have to match the price. I argue the point that I had selected "my store" and it still showed $599 and said "buy in store".
Again I was told they didn't have to match the price since it shows not available for shipping. Something else to think about: If it was not available the day before, how can they run a sale on an item they don't have?

I purchased a 84" curtain panel and one of the layers of decorative ruffles at the top of the curtain was sewn into a seam rendering the item defective. Target will not mail me a replacement because the item was purchased in-store, so it must be exchanged in-store. Yet, the item is currently out of stock at the store where I purchased it. I don't understand why Target would expect me to waste my time and money to go across town to get a replacement when they could just as easily mail a replacement with the address I provided when I e-mailed guest.service@target.com. Their customer service is horrendous.

Long story short! Ordered a deep freezer from Target Oct 24 2018, UPS damaged it on delivery. Call Target for refund, I had to purchase another one because their system locked. Sent the old one back, called them again to see what the process was. No one could find my returned item for 4 days and giving me the wrong info. Finally located my return, I was told refund was processed on Oct 29th and my refund would be here in 3 to 5 days. Nov 1st I called to check on the process and they said all was going good. No refund. I called back Nov 12, and they said that they just processed my refund on Nov 6th and I need to wait 7 to 10 days now. They had different stories all associates that I dealt with. No more Target ordering for me. I'll stick to the other companies.

Updated on 12/21/2018: Well, I purchased a dining set which came damaged. I contacted the maker and they did not respond or help. I contacted Target for a replacement and return. The replacement was delivered to the wrong house downstairs. I contacted Target and they told me just over over their, open the package while it's standing up and take out a piece at a time for the ones I need to replace. This box was 3 times my width and taller than me. Weights about my weight. I am not taking that risk. The box said lay flat before opening. Target just said, "Too bad." I then called and they just said they will come and pick up both package, the damaged one and the one that is delivered to the wrong place and refund me. Well, they did not refund me at all. I called, chatted, shown delivery proof and was told they have a system. They need to transfer my case to the investigation team, then the research team, then the specialist team and then to processing and such, then refund.
Well, they never even transferred my case to any team when a week later I contacted them again. The chat rep told me to just contact my bank. I did and it took weeks more plus a complaint to the BBB for Target to refund me. Then they sent me a collection letter telling me I owe them the money. I contacted my bank and was told they are still under investigation and need Target to contact them directly as I have hand the case over to my bank. Well, Target just won't and keep sending debt collection letters with threat of me not being able to use my RED card again and such. So to avoid any hit on my credit and stuff, I have to send in another payment that I do not owe to Target.
Hopefully it's a learning lesson and when this clears, I will cancel the RED card. I started using because I gave up on Walmart, but sadly this year, Walmart online has beat Target new "improved" system for sure. The 5% off on Red card is for sure not worth the trouble. I since then I have do all my shopping mainly on Amazon. The comfort of having decent/good customer services helps me more than a few dollars discount. So beware if you buy anything expensive and large from Target that comes damaged, it's like giving birth each time you contact them.
Original review: Well, to make the story short. Bought a dining set, damaged, returned but Target won't issue refund saying their team will contact me instead. I checked online and it still asking me to return the item. I called and was told they just need to update showing items has been returned to get refund. Days later it still asking me to complete my return. I contacted them again and was told their leadership team will contact me instead. (It was research team before)... But won't update the tracking. Basically got items and holding my money and won't give it back. Thief and liar!

I ordered an air purifier from target.com. They said they had one available at my store. Within one hour I received an email and a text saying my item was available for pickup. I happened to click on the link in the email and it took me to my online account, which they forced me to open. That's another story. Upon logging into my account it said the order was canceled. I called the local store and gave them my order number. They said, "We don't have the order. That probably means we didn't have it in stock and so the person canceled the order." I said thanks, and hung up.
I incorrectly assumed that they would refund my debit card through PayPal. The next day I received two emails from Target saying the $195 was applied to a Target gift card instead of being refunded to my original payment method, debit card. I was furious. I called customer service. It took her about 15 minutes to cancel the gift card and manually request that the funds to be applied back to my debit card. She said it would take a few days. It's now 3 days later and still no refund. She also said they would send me an email confirming the request. Still no email.
My girlfriend happened to cancel an online order around the same time. She also had to call to cancel the gift card and get a refund. They told her it may take up to 30 days! There is no doubt in my mind that this is an intentional corporate policy to try and keep your money. This is fraudulent behavior in my option and Target should be held accountable. They have lost a customer for lifetime.

Deplorable phone and in store customer service. Target advertised boots in paper. Drove to 3 stores, no boots. Ordered by phone with Kyle, a senior specialist for Target. Received boots. Had to return, did not fit. The store credited me back the wrong amount. Told me I had to call Target customer service since ordered on line. I am on hold with them now. Have been on hold now 42 minutes while they jerk me around. Been transferred 3 times. From Paula in customer service to Amber in the SLT 2 dept who is supposedly a supervisor who is of no help and who has put me on hold 4 times at 5 minutes each.
Amber refused to put in a research ticket about my issue. I asked her to do it 3 times and she refused. Both Paula and Amber called me by the wrong name. Now Amy the next supervisor is saying it is my fault they can't see my receipt. They owe me $6.35 and refuse to refund me. I am now on the phone over an hour. Amy the supervisor in guest services at Target.com is condescending and rude as well. I will never do business with Target again. You hire those that would not even know how to provide acceptable customer service let alone know how to exceed expectation.
They blamed me for not having a printer to print out my original emailed receipt. They could not find my receipt ID # and the call in total was 1 hour and 5 minutes for a refund of $6.35. There is much more to this story but trying to give brief synopsis. Inept, rude, Condescending, ineffectual are just a few adjectives for my unfortunate communication with the representatives that Target hires. Target needs to up their standards and choose those that wish to remedy issues and exceed expectations.

Because I'm a senior, I don't have a car and am disabled I have been ordering online for over a year and everything went fine until recently. Because of the above I make sure that all items will be delivered, however, I rec'd an email from Target stating that I had to pick up one item at their store. I chatted with three employees on different occasions and they can barely write English properly so it's hard to understand what they are trying to say. One of them told me that I had picked up the item, I told him to show me proof since I did not do so, they gave me the runaround and finally I sent an email to the CEO with copies of all the chats as proof. I realize that Target hired many temp employees for the holidays but us the customers are paying for the cheap labor while Target profits.

Received ad in Saturday paper on 32" Visio 1080p TV, went to the store and as always there was no stock. Asked the manager (Sandy), "Is it coming in?" And she said she don't know because corporate does the ordering. Now keep in mind the sale starts on Sunday, so I would have her say to me, "We have stock but can't sell it to you for the sale price until Sunday." When is this fraud going to end, how can you advertise an item knowing you have no stock and have no clue (don't believe that for a minute) when you will receive stock. Tired of Target and when are the consumer advocates going to step in?

Target online will display an item as in stock, even if they don't have enough stock for all their orders. As a result, on the day your order should arrive, they will then tell you that there's been a delay. This will happen regardless of what delivery option you chose. So a $30 expedited shipping may end up arriving on the same day as a standard shipping. Of course, if you try to get a delivery date assurance beforehand, both the online tracker will assure you it will arrive on that date, and their customer service reps will tell you the same thing, all the way up to the day of, where they will regretfully inform you that they couldn't fulfill the order. Both their store pages and their customer service use deceptive practices when trying to get your orders.

If you are ordering from Target.com - please do yourself a favor, save yourself from disappointment and bad experience! Some items may seem cheaper on their website than the others but do NOT be persuaded. It was my first time ordering online. I rate shopped from various sites and theirs seems cheaper and faster to get delivered. They do not have an option to expedite shipping, too. They will just give you a range and a faster option is to pick it at the nearest store. I chose the option of picking it up in the nearby store. That saves time a little bit. When I placed my order, I made sure that the last date from the range is still on time for the event that we are going. When we actually need it, to give allowance if there's any delay. Comes the next day, I got an email from them that it will be delayed than the initial range and that they haven't charged my card yet. I thought that's fine, we still have time. So I approved that delay.
Comes another day, another email I received from them. Guess what? It will be delayed again!!! Way later than the initial range of date posted when I made an order. The main point why we are placing that order in their website in the first place! So I called their customer support - the person that I spoke to, told me, "sorry," the reason for the delay is they thought they have it but turns out they have to get it from another facility hence the delay. He's pinning it on the system they have and they can't do anything about it. VERY MISLEADING!!! Why would their system show that it's available and provide a range of date when they can't actually deliver! AGAIN. Do NOT order online on their website else you will be the next person writing another negative review with a bad experience. Try Amazon or something else.

I've ordered online from Target for years and was always mostly happy with the results. However, since Target was taken over by Amazon recently, my latest online ordering experience was abysmally bad and I'm not surprised to see many customers who feel the same way. I placed an order on 10/11 - Target separated this into about 5 different orders. Two of the orders never shipped at all. The UPS status just said a label had been created, but they had not received the package yet from Target. I contacted Target two times to ask about those orders and they simply said they could give me a refund. No explanation of what the heck happened, but at least I got my money back for those items.
They also shipped a glass bowl to me in a crappy box that was almost falling apart and that had no label indicating it was fragile. Naturally it was cracked upon arrival and that will require a trip to Target to get a refund. The most annoying thing about this experience was, there was one part of the order with several items that shipped out and for some reason were delivered to a "local access point" rather than my home. I called both UPS and Target trying to explain that I wanted the items delivered to my home (as I had specified in the order) and that I don't even have a vehicle to get the items from an Access Point. For whatever reason, it was simply impossible for this to be accomplished (never had this problem with any other online vendor in my life), so I talked to Target and told them I wanted the package returned to them and a refund issued for the items.
The customer service person I talked to at that time was nice and said he would issue the refund right away. Several days later, I see the refund has not been issued, but the tracking number shows it was received by Target. I call Target yet again and after about 1/2 an hour of trying to explain, they finally understood and said I would get my refund within the next few business days. Called again after a few business days and still not receiving refund and was told this time it would about 7-10 days to receive the refund. At this point, I see Target as crooks. They have the merchandise AND my money. I should at least get one of those things since I'm the buyer. I know I'll simply have to keep calling them to get this resolved and will get nowhere.
I will absolutely never purchase anything from Target again. Even though the problem was with their online ordering, I won't even go into their stores again because I won't do business with crooks. Also, Target used to be the one and only store in existence that didn't blast music over the loudspeakers. There was no music and it was wonderful to browse the items in peace and quiet and not have some annoying pop song in your head. Well, the minute they got bought out by Amazon, they started playing trendy music in their stores. Not that it would have made a difference to me at this point, but they now suck in every respect.

Tried the online store pickup. It was not my first time, but since the renovation to include groceries to the store the online store pickup became separate from returns. Which I thought was great, but before the changes the online store pickup had a separate line and pickup was priority to customers returning items. Since the change, now I have to wait in line behind people with shopping carts because the floor manager in Queens Place didn’t want the pickup register to be standing still. He had made in store shoppers to go to online store pickup register to reduce the long lines in regular registers (long line problem always seems to be the case whenever I see him managing the floor).
I don’t mind as long as he prioritized store pickup. He did not. Nor did the guy at the register notify me that some of the items I’ve ordered were not available and were not included in my purchase/pickup. I’ve made a complaint and I heard his excuses. Next time I visited Target (not online pickup), he made the employees announce that online pickup register is open to store shoppers for several weeks as if to retaliate against my complaints. The online store pickup became a regular register which undermines the point of it and I will never do online store pickup again.

We ordered a red 6 cup Brita water filter and 4 days later received a dark gray one on our doorstep.

The gray product is listed as $7.00 less expensive than red but we were charged the higher price as well.

We live 50+ miles from any Target store and this was not our error so I was adamant they correct the problem. The customer service supervisor actually hanged up on me! I called back and demanded to speak to her direct supervisor and was told by him they could only credit my card and charge for another filter after the wrong filter was physically returned to the store. I advised him we would not pay freight or drive 50 miles to correct their screw up and he reluctantly agreed to make a full refund to our card. We found the water filter at competitor in-store for 5 dollars less by the way but we’ll wait until our card is credited due to the previous lies and deceit.

I’m not happy about their new online store pick up process of charging your card before you even go to the store to pick up your order. They used to wait for you to come in and verify they had the correct item before they would fully process your order. I did not receive any type of letter or email giving me a heads up this was changing. When I called into a Target store today they weren’t even aware the process changed either.

Oct. 15, 2018 - I went to the Target store in Lakewood, CA this morning and had to walk over clothing on the floor, empty carts in the aisle and no restrooms on the 1st floor.

But when I went to try on a couple of items of clothing that I finally found, the handicapped dressing room door would not even close let alone lock and there were items of clothing all over the dressing room.
I tried another dressing room and found it so small I couldn't even try on any clothes. I finally found a store clerk and asked how long this construction/remodel will be and he said "They say it might be completed by December." But he didn't say what year and the store does not look like it has any new merchandise and even has unplugged all their frozen food freezers and moved them into the center of the first floor. (1) Nowhere to try on clothes safely. (2) No new merchandise. (3) Sales clerks don’t know where anything is. My recommendation to handicapped shoppers - AVOID THIS STORE COMPLETELY.

I was eventually told that they had lied (or actually that it was hard to believe that I had been told that since they would of had no way of knowing). This made me feel as if they thought I was lying. Then due to the first frustration of several hours on the phone I was given a $5 gift card (for $100 of aggravation)! Then the card actually has so many restrictions that it is too frustrating to even use! Good plan terrible service and they give you nothing in return. But can say they did. So shady!

The item has a manufacture defect on it, made a replacement. The second time the item has a different manufacture defect on it, yes, again. I wanted to return the item, Target gave me a UPS label, but they scheduled a pick up with USPS. I called back requesting to send me a correct company, they gave me a new UPS label, but never scheduled the pickup with UPS. I called back again and asked to speak with a manager, it took an ordeal to speak with one. Finally they scheduled a pickup date. After several phone calls to Target's customer service, with many of them had foreign accent, difficult to understand, finally it took 3 weeks for Target to take care of me. So frustrating and very stressful.

First, I'd like to say that I shop at Target often. I spend a fair amount of money there and I appreciate that it's a one-stop shop where I can conveniently get many items that I need. This is the second time that I've ordered items online and it's been a frustrating and bizarre experience. One of the items in my order was incorrect. It was not the item that I ordered as confirmed by both the receipt in the box and the confirmation email I received so I called customer service. Target has obviously chosen to outsource their customer service overseas.
The person that I was speaking to clearly could not understand what I was saying. She kept offering to refund me and I kept asking if I could just get the item that I ordered. I was not rude in any way. I did not raise my voice at all. She put me on hold multiple times and just kept repeating the same things when she would come back on the line. Finally, she put me on hold, came back on the line, said a couple of words and hung up. Now, not only do I not have the product that I want but I'm totally frazzled after a really weird and unhelpful phone call. I will no longer order from Target.

I have ordered pet food and other supplies from Target several times. The last two times, almost every 3 oz can of cat food was wrapped in an individual plastic bag. Since I ordered 92 cans of cat food, I had to unwrap 92 cans! Each can also has sticker on the top. 92 stickers to be removed. Two of the varieties had wrong quantities -- 1 too many of one, and 1 too few of the other.
Very inefficient packaging. The boxes all shipped and arrived the same day. 4 boxes contained canned cat food. Two of the boxes held 1 can each; 1 box has 6 cans and the other box 4 cans. The fifth box held the rest of the cat food. I won't be ordering cat food from Target again. It takes much too long to even check the order in, and I don't want to contribute to more wasted packaging.

I recently ordered the profusion cosmetics contour makeup case along with some other makeup and I was very excited to receive my order. When my order arrived, the blush was placed in a separate fragile bag so it wouldn't be ruined. When I opened the box with all the other stuff, my contour wasn't in a fragile bag and the makeup went all over the place when I opened the container. The mascara I ordered was nowhere to be found and arrived days later even though I marked that I wanted everything in one shipment.
I called customer service and they said they couldn't ship me a new contour case but they could send me an online gift card to place a new order. I collected my gift card and went back onto the Target site to order my contour again and it said my order needed to cost a total of $25 for it to ship. I have no idea why they couldn't have just sent a new contour case with no additional charge. I was very unhappy with this experience and do not recommend ordering things online.

I ordered two car seats online through Target. An infant car seat and a booster that needed to be replaced because I was in an accident. I received the booster about a week later but it was missing the cupholders. The following day I was supposed to receive the infant car seat and instead I receive a huge bookshelf that I didn't order. I message them and send them pictures online and no one ever replied so I called their number and spoke to a person with a strong accent who told me I'd get my infant car seat the next day (even though tracking said my car seat had already been delivered- although I did receive something from target it was not my car seat which I had ordered.) So I waited the next day and no car seat. I called and again spoke with someone who I had a hard time understanding again and wasn't very helpful.
Their supervisor was busy and the CSR kept giving me the runaround until I told her the UPC # of the item I received on the day that their website said my car seat was delivered. She FINALLY understood what I had been telling her for 20 min. I told her I was done with this and would be returning the wrong item I received and the booster with missing parts to a local store and asking for my refund. Everything so far has been a hassle and waste of time with this purchase. Someone out there received my car seat and I got their shelf. Not sure what happened with the missing parts on booster but so disappointed that both items on the order were completely messed up. Should've ordered through Amazon, would've gotten both items in half the time and without an issue. The CSR emailed me a $10 gift card which isn't anything for all the mistakes Target made on my order. So upset.

I am extremely surprised of Target's lack of ability to support their customers.

After 30 minutes the supervisor answered all my questions. Unfortunately, the information she gave me could’ve been placed in an email and I would not have had to make three calls and waste an hour of my day.
Surprisingly, I spoke to Mary twice. However it wasn’t the same Mary. Are we just making up names? How do I get such good service from my credit card company and car insurance company and Target Is like a fly by night store? Extremely unprofessional! Did I mention they kept a portion of my $15 gift card when they canceled my order? If the order is truly canceled mark that on my order summary instead of having it say shipping soon. The only reason I have stars is because I got the answers to my questions.

Placed a store pick up order for a lampshade. Checked on it as I never received a pick up notification and was given generic responses via chat and told to wait to be notified. The next day I get a cancelation email because the item was delivered to the store in time. This is their fault. It is their responsibility to get the item to the store on time and should not just cancel it. I had still wanted the item.

I am done with Target. My last few orders all had issues. I even drove to a store far away for an item that was said to be in stock only to have it not be at the store and then canceled when I placed a pick up order at another store while the website says the item is in stock at all these stores.

I purchased a Lego set that was $64.99 on target.com. When I purchased it, there were 9 units available. Within the hour, all 9 units were sold. The following day, not even 24 hours after I bought the item, the item went down to $39.99. I called customer service for a price adjustment. They were reluctant to give me the price adjustment because they said we cannot "price match" a clearance item. I told them, "This is not a price match. Price match is matching the price from a competitor's website. This is your own website and the item's price went down within 24 hrs!"
After speaking with the manager, Mark, he said he will honor my request as a valuable Target customer and do the price adjustment. We hung up and after 15 mins, I still did not get an email confirming the price adjustment. I called customer service again and it turns out the manager, Mark, that I spoke with did absolutely nothing. No notes of our conversation, NOTHING. So here I go again, explaining my situation AGAIN.
Finally, I was sent an email confirming the new price. That same night, I went into my order account, and it said my item is on "back order". I called customer service again and spoke with another manager, Patrick, and asked how it is possible that there were 9 units available when I purchased it and now my order is back ordered? So the 8 customers who bought it after me are also back order? His response is "Yes, There must have been some sort of human error when the number of units were entered". Hmmm...sounds like BS to me. They screwed me over because I requested the price adjustment. He assured me that the item was just temporarily out of stock and that I should be getting the item.
2 weeks past and still no update so I called Target customer service again. Now, they tell me that once they get the item, they will ship it to the store and they will ship it out to me. Again, it doesn't make sense why they would need to ship it to the store and then ship it to me. 2 days after that phone call, I get an email stating my order was canceled. I called customer service again and spoke with another manager, Lisa, and she said the item was out of stock and couldn't ship it to me. This whole experience with target.com and their customer service has been ridiculous and unprofessional. If that is how they run business and screw customers over, then God help them. From this point on, I will be bringing my business to Walmart.

The Target store on Bloomfield in Cerritos is the closest store to my home. But their inability to run their store efficiently has been a huge problem. It seems that shortly after the store was remodeled a little over 2 years ago, things went from poor to really bad. A lot of the items I've purchased on a regular basis are frequently out of stock. And more often than not it is out of stock for at least a week to 10 days. The self check out is closed down a lot. And since they've chose to stock during the day when people are shopping it makes it hard to get thru the store. And the employees working the cash registers have obviously never been trained on how to bag properly so the things you spend your hard earned money on aren't damaged.
I've posted complaints on Yelp with pictures. Spoke to the store managers, and went online chat with their corporate customer relations. If they just stuck to the basics of business, buy keeping their shelves stocked, do their stock work at night before customers come in. And have sufficient employees to work the registers and take pride in the job they do. I think Target would be more profitable by having loyal customers. As of 3 months ago I no longer shop at that Target or any other Target. I know I won't be the only one.

I visited the Target at 4450 Park St N, St. Petersburg, FL 33709 with my family today and was extremely disappointed (and surprised) by our experience. The store visit was going smoothly until we reached checkout. I had been struggling with the Target Cartwheel app and was trying to get the 5% off discount on some school supplies. I asked the cashier if he could double-check that we were getting the discount and he confirmed so we went on with the checkout. On our way out, I looked at the receipt and wasn't finding the discount listed anywhere. I asked the cashier about it (who at that point was helping the next guest) so he motioned for the manager (some lady with long blond hair) to come assist us. She then passed us off to another worker to come answer our question as she seemed to be preoccupied with something else and walked off.
The worker (brown hair, colored treble clef tattoo on his hand) that came over immediately seemed irritated with us for asking for assistance. He rudely lashed out at my mother after she explained my question to him and had a nasty attitude the entire time. I was actually really shocked by how aggressive he was over a simple (and again, respectfully raised) question. Instead of handling the situation with patience and understanding, he decided to head to the register, take one dollar out, hand it to my mother and angrily tell us to "have a good one". I'm not upset about the money: I'm upset about the blatant disrespect that he showed for no apparent reason. I do understand that workers must be stressed and busy, especially since it's back to school time, but I don't think that warrants treating anyone so poorly. I am not sure that we will be shopping at Target again; this experience truly left a bad impression.

I purchased $169.99 vacuum from Target in Grove City, Ohio. Well when I got it home and opened it there was an old nasty vacuum inside the box. I immediately called corporate and they told me to go ahead and take back to the store you got it from. They will take care of it and if they have an issue give them the case number and have them call us. I go to the store and wait for the worker to open the box to check it before I said anything because I wanted them to feel what I felt I guess. Well they returned it and wasn't even going to check it. I told them anyways what had happened so then they opened it and called the manager up for me. I told the manager what had happened she took my info and said I would receive a call tomorrow (Monday). So Wednesday comes and still nothing so I call and talk to Will. He said let him review a few things and he will get right back to me.
Well Friday came and still nothing. I called Will back and he explained that since as he could tell that the sweeper went straight from the truck to the shelf to me so that there was no way it could have been replaced with another sweeper so he couldn't do anything about it unless corporate told him to do so so I called corporate back and tell them that we will do the return if they approve it and what he had said and she said, "Okay please hold. I'll call and tell him to go ahead and do it."
When she gets back on the phone and says, "Well we can't do anything about it. Shark has to take care of it because it's not something that was our fault." So I get Shark's number from her and call and speak to an employee there that employee said that there is no way that sweeper could have got mixed up and put in that box because it wasn't even Shark brand it was a Hoover so they said she can't believe that Target is giving me such a hard time they're usually pretty good with customer service and I said yeah you know they're telling me I cannot return it or exchange it nothing and she was surprised as much as I was.
So this is where I'm at not only am I out the $169.99 but I also had to go purchase another vacuum which was about the same price so I'm out almost $200 for what reason? I could have easily let the return go through and not even and told him what had happened and they would have never knew what was in the box but I was honest and this is where my honesty I got me out $200 and a huge headache trying to deal with all of this how does that work out? So here it is one week later and still nothing resolved.
I really am upset and I shopped at Target since I was younger and I will never go back to that store again and I will tell everyone and my family and friends who shop there how I was treated and hopes that they will stop going as well. They treated me like I was the one that did something wrong like I was dirt on the bottom of their shoe and I just don't know what to do from here. So it's something similar like this ever happens to any of you good luck and don't go to the Grove City Target and buy a vacuum or anything for that matter because God forbid it be the wrong thing you're just out that money, that hard-earned money. Because clearly they don't care about you or your family.

Florissant MO Target Experience - This store recently went thru a remodel effort. It appears, however, that since it started, and now that it's been finished (or almost finished) that the checkout experience has become more challenging. The ONE thing the store used to do was attempt to staff and get people quickly thru the lines, including the returns at the service desk.
This changed beginning with the remodel and after, as it appeared they were sending more people out onto the floor, instead of manning checkouts. Lines are longer and move slower--Possibly due to the updated registers. One often has to wait for an associate to appear at the service desk. Often self-checkouts aren't working, and for the few that do (there are only a total of 4, when all are in operation) the people monitoring them aren't paying attention when customers need help-- Realize they are ONLY a few feet away. While one has to admit that the hardest working people in any retailer are often the cashiers, for some reason this store causes time to almost stand still. While not quite as slow at checking out people as K-Mart or possibly Walmart, they are quickly narrowing the gap.

Many of these customers, including myself, had perishable items in their carts; milk, ice cream, etc. The number of people waiting in line to check out was inexcusably long. Of 23 registers only three were open!! Because of this there were customers with full carts using the self serve checkouts, and one of those was out of service. Let me say that most folks had some pretty disgusting looks on their faces! Either your manager at this store is improperly trained, or he (she) is an idiot. Three registers open, out of 23!!!

Extremely disappointed. I went in to look at fire pits and their outdoor section is in the far back corner of the store (Target Asheville South). They had one fire pit left, with no price on it. Naturally I used my Target App, and the fire pit scanned $59.60. We went over to the Lowe’s next door to check fire pits, and there weren’t any we liked, so we went back to Target. When we got back to the back, we found a few chairs that we liked and those had a price tag on them for $50, naturally we scanned the items and those scanned up as $24.50, we scanned the fire pit again, and it again came up to $59.60 again.
So we loaded it all up and brought it to the front to self checkout, when we scanned it all at the register the fire pit came up to $199 and the chairs came up as $50 each. We waited for the Team Member (Taylor) to price match it, and so when she came by we scanned the fire pit and showed her it, and she input the price as $59.60. After she did that she used her mobile device and scanned the chairs and they came up to $50 each, so she rescanned the Fire pit and it then came up to $199 instead. At that point she had to call her Assistant Manager (didn’t see a name tag) over and we explained all that had happened and that we scanned the item in front of Taylor and she saw the price of $59.60.
When the ASM questioned her she stated, “Yes I saw it when he scanned it and it came up as $59.60”. The ASM then questioned Taylor again and that second time she stated “I saw something on there that said $59.60, but didn’t specifically see the fire pit”. We were frustrated that she now had lied to her ASM after being questioned, and her ASM said due to the large difference in price, she would call and ask the Manager (Jake) to come up to see what can be done. The ASM then disappeared and she came back 5/10min later and stated due to there being no “physical proof” they would not be able to honor it.
I again stated the fact that Taylor even had seen it, and input it into the machine, but Taylor did not say another word, and the ASM said sorry and that was it. We are just frustrated at the fact that we scanned it 4 times and one of the times in front of Taylor, yet because Taylor then lied to the ASM nothing was done. I personally have never had a bad experience at any Target I’ve been to, but this has truly put a bad taste in my mouth.
I did right after call Corporate Customer Service, and spoke to Michelle, and she contacted the store and spoke to Jake, who again said he would not offer the price adjustment. Michelle informed me she asked to speak to Taylor to get her side, and Jake (the manager) denied that from happening. Michelle offered me a $50 Target Gift card, and stated she was extremely sorry that this had occurred, and stated that is all she could do, because it was up to the store's discretion and she could not override it. Thank you Michelle for your help in trying to fix things, it was just unfortunate that Jake didn’t trust the customer and put them first.
It is just pretty disappointing that Jake wouldn’t allow Michelle to speak to Taylor, come in person and speak to us at self check out, or just at best fix the situation that had occurred. Each of the self checkout stations have their own camera, that if they checked, could have seen me scanning the item with my phone and showing it to Taylor. At the end of the day, nothing can be done, so it is what it is, it was just a very disappointing experience and we most likely will not return.

I've placed orders that qualified for free 2-day shipping, but they arrived late. I just don't get it. If they're going to advertise a significant service like this, they need to keep their word. A customer service rep said packages are handed off from UPS to USPS which caused the delay. Well, look, if you guys are trying to save money by doing this, you still need to factor in that extra time so that 2-day delivery is 2-day delivery. You started offering this service so you can compete with Amazon and Walmart, so I would think you'd take this seriously and MAKE IT WORK. Right now you're failing and proving that you can't compete with them. So get your ** together.

Target has expensive shipping and ridiculously slooow delivery. Took Target 6 weeks to ship a sweater. By the time I finally received it, the weather was much too warm to wear it.

I have ordered both items to be delivered to my home, and also in the past, orders to be delivered to store. In both cases, the process is laughably difficult and incompetently managed. Don't believe the date given to you by the website when you order. They stated my order would arrive "Saturday, June 16th" and tracking showed that it was in my city, but would not be delivered until Monday. When I called UPS, they said that Target had not selected "Saturday delivery" therefore it would be delivered Monday by 8 PM.
When I called Target they said the website clearly stated that 2-day shipping excluded certain zip codes and certain items. My item shipped from a city less than 80 miles away, and the only reason it wasn't delivered is because TARGET did not want to pay for Saturday delivery, not because it was too large or the city too small. The person I spoke with over the phone was difficult to understand, and the one I "chatted" with online was terse and bordered on rude: "I already answered these questions several times." etc. Target's customer service is so substandard it is amazing that they are still in business.

You order an item and they give you no time when they will have it delivered to the store. Then when it gets there they only allow 2 days for pickup. Thereafter they cancel the order. Who does that? Don't they think that customers have a life (like vacation) so that they have to be at Target's beck and call? Shop elsewhere such as Walmart (2 weeks at least) or Amazon (free delivery if you join Prime).

Normally I do not shop at Target, but one of my suppliers gave me a gift card this past Christmas. As a check on Walmart decided not to only use the gift card buy a little more... I decided to use the gift card and additional money to buy wireless earbuds. Perhaps I did not ask the right questions, but I found out that in order to listen to the FM radio on my phone, the earplugs needed to be corded. So, put the earbuds and what I thought was the receipt in the bag and went back to Target to even exchange. I explained this to the "manager" at the customer service desk.
As I went to get the corded earbuds and brought them up front she said it was not the correct receipt... so thinking that I left the receipt out in my car I went out to look and it was not there. I had my debit card on me so I told her if she could look it up since I purchased the earbuds the previous weekend. She said no Target does not have a record of the transaction... funny my America First list a transaction the previous weekend from Target. At this point I was so upset I left the earbuds and vow never to shop at Target. For all of the people of color in the community please realize that if you shop at Target in Utah you will be treated differently.

I came to Target to buy 4 cans of **. I had 4 manufacturer coupons printed from the ** site. I additionally added about 50.00 worth of other I hadn't planned on buying. I followed Target policy and the coupons policy. (Target only allows 4 coupons for the same product and ** only allows the same coupon to be used 4 times in one purchase).
I get to the checkout, the coupon doesn't scan- ** coupons have a history of not scanning. In the past, clerks just over-rided it through. This clerk calls a low level manager over. Out of the kindness of his heart he allowed one coupon to go through. I called customer service from the parking lot. It seemed everything was ok and the customer service agent told me he couldn't do anything for me unless I was in the store. Luckily I was still in the parking lot. 35 minutes later, I still hadn't had anything accomplished but a 5.00 gift card which doesn't help for me purchasing the ** right now. I had to hand my phone over to the low level manager and waste minutes on my phone and time in my life.
After all of this I was told that when a coupon doesn't ring, management doesn't have to take it. I wasted 35 minutes for that. So, now the Cary Target on Walnut St gets a bad consumer affairs review, gets blasted on my Facebook page, I returned 50.00 worth of merchandise, and they lost another 20.00 with the ** sale. I won't shop at this Target again, and as soon as my accumulated gift cards are used up, I won't shop Target again. I have been an avid Target shopper, have their debit card and spend several hundred a month there in groceries and other odd items. My question to Target, was this worth the 4.50 in coupon and the young manager self-satisfaction in saying "no?" You lost a customer and in a tight market where you are not doing as well as you would like, was it worth it?

In December of 2017 I ordered a toaster oven as a gift. Thank goodness I had it shipped to my house and not the gift recipient. There was pizza in the toaster oven! In June I ordered an outdoor patio set. After ordering the set, the site crashed. I wasn't sure if the item had been ordered or not. So as to not have 2 patio sets on my credit card, I contacted the customer service chat. It took me 30 minutes to finally get through to the chat. The representative on the chat told me the item had not been ordered, so we ordered again. The date was June 4th. The item was to be delivered June 19th.
On June 13th, I received an email that the item was delivered. Because we were not home, I asked a relative to go out of his way quite a distance to our house and see if the large boxes were in front of our house or out back. He arrived and there was no package. I opened my target.com account and it says, "Item successfully delivered, June 19th." It's only June 13th and there is no item that is successfully delivered. I cannot get through to the chat because chat representatives are "helping many customers at this time" and I should call a specific number. I have no idea if or where the patio set was delivered or when it's coming. Give it up Target. Stick to brick and mortar. Your online service stinks.

I'd never been to a Target store and never ordered from them before, so a couple of weeks ago, when I thought of Target, I imagined an upscale Walmart. Boy, was I wrong. Ordered an electric travel cooler a week before a planned Memorial Day trip. The estimated delivery day was Wednesday, which was plenty of time. It didn't arrive Wednesday, but I wasn't worried, because even two days late would be fine. On Thursday I received an email stating that it would be delayed by an extra WEEK. They waited 5 days to tell me.
I contacted customer service and they said that it was probably out of stock. I requested that they cancel the order and refund the money they had already charged me for an item they didn't have. Was told they would send me an email confirmation. Didn't get an email Thursday. Didn't get an email Friday. Contacted them again and they claimed my order is still being processed and that they may not be able to cancel it. It's 2018, but Target operates like it's the 1970s. The online Target doesn't know what their stores are doing, what they have in stock, when items will ship, and have to send emails to stores to communicate with them, with no direct control of any part of the process. Online ordering from Target is a utter mess and appears to be a low priority for the company. I won't be ordering again.

The prices at Target are generally competitive and a good value - if they have the product. Over the last year or so, it has become an increasing issue with all Target stores in my area being poorly stocked; this may continue for an item for weeks. Other items I went specifically to Target to purchase, they no longer carry. Too often, merchandise will be put in the wrong area to fill holes of missing product. Employees often are chatting together in the aisles when they are supposed to be stocking product and many cashiers lack training. Interestingly, when I visit Arizona fairly regularly, the stores are well stocked, employees are attentive and helpful, and shopping is a great experience. For me, it is no longer worth the frustration to shop at Target in Orange County.

She told me to call customer service.
I called and they told me to refuse the package or have someone pick it up for return. This is a big inconvenience for the person receiving it.

Target Store in NE Portland at Cascade Parkway is refusing to accept bottle and can returns without a receipt.

The person from Target Corporate looked up the law and stated I would not need to bring my receipts that the store must comply with the rule, however the AP manager on duty refused and refused to call Target Corporate to confirm they had spoken to me.
The state of Oregon law states if they sell the brand even if it was not sold by that store they must accept returns. I called their corporate office before I left and the specialist I spoke to backtracked and stated the District Manager from Target for this area authorized this change in policy. I did purchase 95% of beverages with bottle return refunds from this Target and shopped there weekly for most all of my groceries.

I once used Target every week, sometimes more often for everything from garden to personal items. I would place an order at work and it would be ready for pick up on the way home the same day, it was great. Something changed around 2 years ago and they became very unreliable. First it was a furniture set I saw in their weekly ad. I place an order on the day the ad was delivered. I had a confirmation it was received, and told to hold for a pick up date from their Woodland Ca store, then nothing... I followed up many times by phone, and email both with the store and with CSR's and had an extremely hard time finding help or information.
This was unusual for them, at that time. After about 6 weeks I was notified that the set wasn't available. I have since had similar experiences on several occasions. A confirmation of the order means nothing anymore. I have had to go to the store for pick up to discover the item wasn't there.

Clearly the items were not packaged with care as they were able to slide around very easily and bump into each other, never mind the cleaning fluid bottles whose spray nozzles were just barely screwed on.
I called Target about this and they took my detailed feedback and refunded me for the spilled cleaning fluid. However, the following day I received the third and final package, again containing only one item. Unfortunately, this item was dented with its plastic wrap shredded.

The charges did go through and it took 2 hrs on a 3 way call to get Target to release my money back on my card. The CS Supervisor got paid for her 2 hours I did not. Then yesterday the $16 charge comes through on my bank debit card.
Neither Target I go to are close or near anywhere else I shop. One is a 20 mile round trip the other is 18 miles. Instead of another 2hrs on the phone I filed a dispute with my bank so they can handle it cause they get paid for doing it and I can get on with caring for my 17 indoor (mine now) rescue cats. What really ticked me off was despite my predicament that night which was desperate I was totally out of cat food, they never thought to let me have 9 cans so my cats could at least eat when I got home. 9_ $ .44 = $3.96. I had to come home call a friend to borrow $20.00 to get them some food.
On top of that I got their bill the next day 11/15 and noted they had charged me $25.00 late fee because I got my SS check on the 3rd (Fri) but they don't accept money on Sat the 4th and of course banks are all closed on Sun the 5th (bill due date) so they got it the 6th and charged the full $25 late fee which was why I kept coming up short. What a fiasco. There have been other situations in the past, plus their prices are high in spite of the whopping 5% you get but only if you're using your Target Debit or Target credit card.
Their selection for cats is so pathetically limited it's the reason I didn't go there the past 2 months and unless I've got money on their credit card and I am low on cash and in dire need, Target will be avoided and used only as a last resort. Then You've got what I consider not so friendly or personable people working in their stores. This last incident has turned me completely off. It took 3 calls to their CS dept to finally get a Supervisor on the line after my call was dropped 2x. Then my credit card co. was the one doing all the work and when she asked for the transaction # the Supervisor didn't know how or where to find it. Finally after getting a description from my card company she found it. 18 miles + 1hr round trip there, 3 miles + 1/2 hr round trip to Walmart, shopping time Target 1 1/2 hrs @Walmart 1+ hr due to long lines and of course the gas it took. I'm back to shopping solely at Walmart for my cat's needs.

I used to be in love with Target stores. I have the RedCard, would shop at least two times a week, and honestly would just walk the store for retail therapy. I have never in my life had such an issue with returning or exchanging a product at Target. My husband had purchased a video game, opened it and then realized he already had it when he purchased the PlayStation bundle. It was a game that was included in the package. I called the store and the rep over the phone clearly stated I could exchange the open game for a different game. Great I thought.
I took the game into the store on 441 and Lantana to exchange and got a completely different story. The rep was completely rude about the policy and called the manager. Unable to help me, I left and called Target Corporate. The rep over the phone then clearly stated that I could exchange the game for a different game. Getting the runaround I wanted to speak to his manager. He transferred me to the Supervisor which told me that no because of copywriting laws I couldn't exchange it for a different game. Only the same one. We already had it! Then, when I told her that her own rep only minutes before said I could exchange it, she said no he didn't. I said, "Please replay the conversation" because he said I could and so did the woman over the phone this morning.
I have never been so disappointed in Target. Policy is policy fine but this particular policy isn't clear because several employees told me otherwise. Then I was pretty much called a liar over the phone by the corporate supervisor. I guess a few bad apples ruins it for the rest. All we wanted was a game we didn't have! We aren't making a copy of it and trying to give it back. Ridiculous. I ran a store for 13 years and would return and exchange broken lipsticks to please our customers and keep them coming back.
This is why people are shopping more and more online with Amazon and other companies because customer service sucks! Good customer service no longer exists and corporations don't care. It makes me sad because I loved Target!!! :( So, I am closing my RedCard and will do my grocery shopping at Publix and strictly shop on Amazon. Please change your policy, Target, because you will lose a ton of loyal customers who used to enjoy shopping in person and now are forced to shop online because of unfair policy and rude and ignorant employees.

I suggested to them that I go and grab the item off the shelf and bring it to the front so the order could be processed. They said they couldn't do that cause online orders come from a different stock. I then asked if they could call the back and see where they we're at in processing the order and they said they couldn't do that either. I then asked for a manager.
As a former retail store manager myself of 8 years of a large auto parts chain I have experienced these types of issues and I always did whatever was necessary to process the order and assist the customer. After all, the customer is trying to spend their money in the store or with the company. But instead when their store manager came to speak with me they also refused to do anything for me at all. So I instead informed them that I would be cancelling the order and getting the item from Amazon $20 cheaper anyways.

The person at the customer service desk spoke to his manager came back and said they couldn’t help me. I said I was told to come to the store and asked that they call and use my case number as per the phone rep. The customer service rep at the store simply said, “We don’t do that. I don’t know why you were sent here.” The manager didn’t have the decency to speak to me himself. I spent a lot of money for a product I didn’t receive therefore my husband didn’t receive a Christmas present and Target didn’t seem to care.

It was back in October 2017 that I placed an order for coffee, coffee cups and coffee creamer to donate to a veterans' museum. The order taker could barely speak English and I ended up spelling words for her. In hindsight, I should have hung up the phone. After much frustration, the order was placed. She did not send me an email receipt with a tracking number. I called Target-- they had no record at all of my placing the order. I contacted MasterCard and started a claim. After two months, the MasterCard claim department provided a tracking number. The information MasterCard had about the purchase was so wrong-- these products were not delivered to my home, they were delivered to the museum. My warning is TARGET HAS SOME INCOMPETENT PEOPLE HANDLING THEIR ONLINE ORDERS. What should have been an easy transaction resulted in much time on my part to make sure the coffee products were actually received.

Last night I was trying to purchase a T-Mobile refill card ($75). I kept getting the same error message. At first I tried on the stock internet on my android. Then I downloaded the app on the android. No luck. I tried to call the Customer’s service number, but they were closed. I thought that there was a glitch in the system, so I figured that I would wait to get to work to see if it would work on a desktop. I tried to do it on the desktop but no luck. I sent out a chat to a rep that was in the chat. Unfortunately, the rep couldn’t assist me so he told me to call the Customer service number. The number that was given was for registry and they transferred me over to cs. I spoke to the rep in cs. I provided him with all my info, so he could access my account. Then he asked for the payment method that I would like to use.
I informed him that I would like to use the card on file. He asked if it was a debit or credit. I informed him it was a debit. He then stated that they only take credit. I informed him that I used the same card to make previous purchases on the account and this was the first time I ever had this error. When he tried to make the order, he received the same message. He then informed me that I would have to use a credit card to make the purchase. I ended up just going to the T-Mobile website and paying the extra $7 for taxes.

Target is a rip off. Rarely do they have sale items. I traveled quite a distance to stock up and they didn't have one thing I needed. Also, there were signs all over the store that you get a & 10 gift card for buying a substantial amount of Coke products. I bought it and the sales clerk told me I had to call for it. I have called, emailed and texted. Everyone tells me I need something different. They absolutely will not give me that gift card.

We did not receive our Christmas gifts (by Christmas) as promised. This was false advertising to get more customers. I will never shop with Target again. They will also charge your account twice (during initial purchase, then again once items ship) and you'll have to wait days until funds are no longer pending. I've NEVER experienced that before and I shop a lot online. Thanks for ruining our Christmas Target!

On Dec 26th I ordered 3 items on one order for pickup at my local store the next day. All items appeared as if they were available and I made sure to click the button for in store pickup. I get an email that the order is received and about 2 hours later that it is ready for pickup. I go to the store the next day and one of three items is there. I ask, "Where are the other two"- they have no clue. We check the order and for some reason Target decided to ship 2 of the 3 items to my home. They had the items in stock so I just paid again and was told I could return the extra items once they arrived.
Target predicted Jan 3 delivery. I received the missing items the next day (Dec 28th). I then took them back to Target as instructed. They were able to return one item but the other they could not for some reason. They then just credited the amount on my credit card. I then got an email yesterday (Dec 30) that my item is getting ready to ship. They already shipped it!? Neither the store or the online order system is reliable and has some serious bugs. I recommend another retailer until they fix these massive IT issues.

Like most people, I live paycheck to paycheck (every two weeks), & I don't get paid until next week (as usual). However, since I recently paid off my credit card, I went to "Target" when my younger sister invited me last night. I chose a gift for her & ma (who was also with us), but when I tried to pay, the device wouldn't read the chip on my credit card & when I tried to swipe the card the device would say to use the chip.
The cashier was no help & just told me the card had been declined. My sister had to pay for everything (it was over $100) & I had to go to the bank to withdraw funds from my savings account to pay her back. Besides the embarrassment of having my younger sister pay for her gift, she was also going to go to a play that evening so I'm sure she was late because of the detour to the bank.
I am a grown man so I know I'm not Target's preferred demographic. & I dislike all these stores (no wonder online shopping is taking off). I do like Target because it's less crowded & more organized, but I won't go back there for as long as I can help it. I'll go to Walmart even. Despite Walmart being owned by the billionaire Waltons (who I hate giving more money to) & having to deal with the "people of Walmart" when I go there, unlike Target, at least Walmart has never had a problem taking my money be it cash, debit, or credit.

I had bought a TCL Roku TV on sale for $249. I left it in box in guest room for a yr. (I should have thought to check it and didn't... lesson learned) so I get it out of box. Put on wall. Plug in and the pixel picture is all jumbled. Took it in hoping for an exchange or a big discount since I would most likely have to eat the cost. No exchange... Ok that's fine. Can you give me an additional $20 off of a new one since I have to eat this? It was on sale but I felt like I deserved a little more of a discount since I had gotten crap quality. Nope... NOTHIN. Wouldn't budge. And it was a manager Justine. She could have easily gone to a higher up to ask... and didn't. I made the sales guy take a new one out I was going to buy plug it in. Ohh guess what... pixels already going bad on it!
Boxed it back up... and put it back! Oh and he proceeds to tell me they had other TV's that came in with bad pixels on the one I had originally bought... Hmmm hence the reason they had probably been on sale? So in other words don't buy tvs from Target. Funny I've had situations through the yrs of not so great electronics before and a few other products. A futon that had broken in a week from Walmart. No receipts. Boom. Exchanged it. Stereo from Meijer didn't work. No receipt. Boom. Exchange. And also Meijer before I have bought a piece of merchandise. No receipt and they gave me a really good deal to make it right without receipt!!! Target needs some good customer service training! They couldn't spare $20 when they are selling crap TV's and they KNOW they are selling crap TV's??? Really???

I went to return a sweater that was given to me at Christmas that was too big. They did not have the smaller size sweater so I scanned it to see what it would come up. It came up as the same price as the tag said 29.99. I found something similar to what I had received and it was also 29.99. I went to make the exchange and they wouldn't give it to me since I didn't have a receipt. They would only give me the lowest price it came to within 90 days, which was $20. I am so disgusted with their return policy. If you are selling something at that time for the same price I should be able to get something comparable.

So if you are just driving by and decide to get a throw rug or maybe a nifty new end stand at your local Target, then the experience is tolerable. As long as you know what you're getting, expect cheaply made IKEA comparable products. Here has been my expo Erie center in the last two weeks. First my girlfriend bought a 200$ set of pots and pans. Within a week the non stick was peeling off. While this was happening she ordered me a gift for Christmas about two weeks prior to Christmas. The delivery date was supposed to be a week later. It never came.
Two weeks went by with us contacting target and trying to track down this item and getting a laundry list of different reasons why it was getting pushed back. After it was all said and done they canceled our order, and offered us 5% discount at Target. The worst part is we had several opportunities to buy this item cheaper for holiday sales. So all in all it is going to cost us 20-30$ more in the long run. Target is garbage. Don’t waste your money.

My wife and I ordered the Barbie Dream House for our 5 year old daughter, which was supposed to be her only present from Santa on Christmas. The order was supposed to be delivered to us on 12/21/17. On the morning of 12/21 my wife received an email from Target saying that, "Your order has been delayed (see attached)." After logging into Target.com we saw the new delivery date was 12/26, the day after Christmas. So my Wife called and drove all over our county trying to find a Barbie Dream House but everywhere was sold out. We came up with a plan to write our daughter a note from Santa on Christmas morning and the reasons why the Barbie Dream House will not be delivered by Santa on Christmas. Our daughter was very upset, but fine to be getting it the next day.
The next morning came and my Wife wakes up, opens her email and sees that Target sent an email at 1:30am and has now “canceled the order” and the Barbie Dream House won't be coming at all now. As the parents of a 5 year old who believes in Santa, there are only so many believable stories we can tell her on why Santa has once again will not be following through. If you can remember when you were a young child, Santa coming was about as magical as it gets!
Yesterday I contacted the Customer Service Department only to get an offer for a $30 gift card and no explanation on why this has happened. A $30 gift card just doesn't suffice for ruining my daughter's Christmas and the magic of thinking that Santa has come to your home and given you the one thing you asked for.I'm writing this to you, the executives at Target, to see how this happened and what are you going to do to make sure this doesn't happen again. We've been loyal Target customers for years and feel extremely unconfident that any order we place in the future for a time sensitive event will arrive on time. Please help us understand.

On November 20, 2017, I purchased a 10-piece set of Calphalon cookware as a Christmas gift for my daughter. I did not open or examine the set because it was in the box and the top pieces were wrapped and I thought the purchase was new; however, I was excited to give the gift on Christmas, which I did. When my daughter unwrapped the gift and unpacked the pots and pans on 12/26/17, she was disgusted and disappointed to find that the set was used. Most of the pots were scratched on the interior; and one (the stockpot) had dried food on the pot interior as well as the exterior. This is a health hazard! Also, several of the glass lids showed evidence of use by exhibiting water spots.
It is obvious that someone had returned the set after using; and the Target Store (located on Clinton Highway in Powell, TN) apparently didn't inspect the return and placed the cookware back into stock and placed on the shelf for resale. Not only is this experience so very disappointing; but it ruined my Christmas surprise for my daughter. I did exchange the product yesterday on 12/26/17; and was allowed to make an even exchange; however, my confidence in this store is totally eroded. I am shocked at the lack of attention to inspecting returns and placing back into inventory. It is inexcusable! I am writing this review to alert other consumers to this very disturbing experience. I will probably never shop at Target again.

I had a very bad experience with the Target on Atlantic Mall in Brooklyn on 12/20/2017 with an Asian Manager (I believe his name was Leo). I went shopping for a few gifts and found one item (the last one) that was priced at $29.99. I knew my nephew would love it so I picked it up along with several other items. When I got to the register the item rang up $80.00. I explained that the item was being advertised upstairs for $29.99 and the person behind the register said it would be no problem and she would get a manager to adjust the price since that's what the item was selling for.
When this particular manager came however he spoke to me in a very demeaning way and was very insulting. As if I had no right to question why it was advertised different from actual price. The only reason I was so adamant about it was because I took a picture of the item and the price tag it was being sold as and sent it to my god daughter's mother promising to get the item (since I thought it was such a good price). So I felt stuck. This manager then called a higher manager -- who I believe his name was Leo--he was a An Asian boy. He was the very very rude person. He stated that the store was "had a lot going on" and everything is not organized. However that is not the customer's fault. Not to mention there were tons and tons of worker up there putting everything in its rightful place.
I was so heartbroken. However I was willing to leave it at that but as I was walking away he stated to his colleague "If you can't afford the real price you should shop at Salvation Army - I don't get people like that"--Not that term "people like that" is what made me leave the $326.08 worth of other items I had waiting at the register which I left since I was so infuriated. I was quite exhausted from work and decided to keep walking because if my legs did not do me justice and lead me to my Uber I would have given him a piece of my mind and maybe a fist to head - but that would've made me no better than his unprofessional disgusting judgemental actions. Please hire and promote managers that know and understand consumer and customer rights!

Two days ago I went to a Target in Eagan, MN. I made purchases totaling $104.34. I paid using my Target Red Card and a $10 gift card (one of the ones they hand out if you buy specific items). Today I returned one of the items, the cost of which (including tax) was $8.17. The customer service person insisted that amount could not be credited to my Red Card but must be returned to me via an $8.17 gift card. This assumes that I will return to Target to spend that gift card and unless I do so they have not reimbursed me for the cost of the item. Given the fact that the total cost of items purchased two days ago was $104.34 this "policy" seems ridiculous.
I contacted the Eagan Target and asked to speak to the store manager. I was placed on hold twice, disconnected twice and, after 15 minutes transferred to the customer service department who told me that the "manager is too busy for phone calls". I called the customer service number (800-440-0680) and was informed that whenever a gift card was part of ANY transaction and an item was returned the credit would be made with a gift card, even if the total purchased items were over $100 and the gift card was only $10. The person I spoke with agreed that this was NOT actually crediting the account for the returned item and unless one would actually return to the store to use the gift card the customer would not be reimbursed.
This customer service rep also stated (when I pursued the matter) that a substantial number of people do not ever use the reimbursement gift cards. Hence it seems that when one uses a gift card as a portion of ANY payment for items purchased and finds it necessary to return an item a gift card will be given and Target is counting on customers to lose, forget or have the gift card expire and then Target will not have had to reimburse the customer for the returned item. I find this an extremely dishonest policy and, as a Target customer for 30 years, I will no longer shop at Target. There are too many other options which treat customers honestly. Target is NOT one of them. Shop elsewhere. I know I will.
