I paid my account off with them in April 22 only to get a random email in November 22 saying I had a balance of 54$ in late fees on a zero balance. Not a single bill or any kind of alert and no purchases had been made on the card since 2021. I will be filing a complaint with my state's Atty general as well.

I placed an order and noticed the website auto populated my old address from another city. Moments after placing it, I cancelled the order by phone. I was assured the order would be cancelled. It was not, and the money still taken out of my account. This feels kind of dishonest in my opinion. It's not what I have come to expect from Childrens Place. So now I'm left with clothes I have to return and money out I did not budget for, That is assuming the clothing arrives to my new address and I can even return it.

I ordered 5 items online. They claimed the order was delivered but it never was. I checked my security camera and checked with the neighbors and there was nothing. I contacted The Children's Place customer service twice and they said that they couldn't anything that the carrier was the one responsible for it. I contacted UPS and they said that the package was passed to the local post office USPS. I called them as well and tried to open a claim but they claimed that it was delivered. Unfortunately, I lost my money, there wasn't any help offered from The Children's Place.

I ordered a coat for my daughter on OCT 4th. Item claimed it was delivered the 18th. I never received it, I was home, checked with my neighbors as well. They use a 3rd party shipping company LaserShip who is also awful. They offered no refund or replacement. Told me to contact my financial institution. Worst customer service ever. Thieves who don't care about their customers.

I guess I don't learn from my mistakes because this is the 2nd time it happens to me with the Children's Place. They sent me entirely the wrong item, I ordered boots and they sent me baby pajamas. Customer service never replied to the message I left so I called them and they refused to fix THEIR OWN MISTAKE. Told me I would have to ship the pajamas I never ordered back to them (and would provide a label) and refund me for the boots. Well I never received the label nor the refund. I can't believe they don't stand behind their own company. How can you ship the wrong item and then dare telling me that you cannot fix your own mistake?!? I would never treat a customer like that. Well, it is the 2nd time this exact situation happens to me so they've lost me as a customer forever. I will shop somewhere else!

Originally I asked if I use this card for gas, etc? And if I could pay off immediately after purchase? After being approved I asked how know my address because it didn't ask for it. They used an address I have never put on MY driver's license, luckily it was my sister's home which I have never lived. I couldn't pay off because I code was wrong. The cashier called 5 times and I called 5 times over the course of 2 months. They sent my credit card to the wrong address but luckily that person sent it to me. The address was completely off. It costs $9 to pay over the phone and online.

I go into the store and they said I couldn't pay with my debit card. I had to pay online phone or cash. I went to ATM in mall and spent $5 to get CASH!!! Then when it was time to pay I asked if I could use my card for clothing purchase and then immediately pay entire thing off to close credit card? Wrong!!! I used for second purchase and she told me my credit card balance. I asked why my new amount wasn't showing, she said it was! She then asked if I was a club member. I assumed so since I had their credit card!!! They are 2 different things!! Okay!

I then wait lo ger for a manager to fix the amount so I could pay the entire thing off and cancel my credit card! I was irritated at this point, because before this second purchase she said I could pay it off, and the amount was correct (apparently you have to go in and attach receipt to credit card to pay it off!! EVEN IF YOU USED THE CREDIT CARD TO PAY FOR IT!!). So if you never asked for them to fix it my amount would be idolling sitting secretly on my card without my knowledge and ruining my credit all because they didn't attach the credit card receipt to the credit card itself!! 0/10.

Updated on 9/16/2022: Opened a claim for a shipment never received and shipped to the wrong address, and everytime I would call they would say it was still in process and then out of nowhere they said it was resolved, when they never even called. And now they keep sending me back and forth and now USPS nor the store are resolving the issue, and it's been 2 months and I haven't received the nor the package or my money back.

Original review: Made ordered and they delivered to wrong address and when they delivered and I called, they didn't even try to help and find a solution to my situation immediately and washed their hands with, "Oh just call the carrier and go from there." No kind of options, no kind of help, NOTHING. Very disappointed.

I ordered my son's school uniform pants from here on July 29, 2022. Bad mistake. My package was stolen out of my building's mailroom on Aug 2nd, 2022. The shipper (LaserShip) never put the package in the mail locker. Just threw it in the mailroom on some boxes. And now I'm out of the merchandise and my money. Because The Children's Place would not reimburse or replace the merchandise. I've read some similar reviews. I filed a complaint with the FTC and my local division of Consumer Affairs. I will be filing with the NY Attorney General Office as well.

My point is just don't write a review. Report them. With enough complaints we as consumers can stop this practice that they are doing. And the only way to do that is to report their behavior to the right agencies. This is what they're there for. We as the little people can't make but so much noise on our own. But together with our complaints can bring awareness to the right people. That can fight on our behalf. Most complaint filing is done online or you can call. Just don't write a review and then not report them. We have to let them know that it's not ok that you think you can just keep people's money. And the merchandise was never received. So numbers is power. Complain people. Complain to these agencies to stop The Children's Place online unfair practices against everyday hard working consumers.

I ordered a big order from them and they separated it into 3 deliveries. They sent 2 packages to the wrong address and refuse to fix it. I contacted the carriers which wasn’t easy because they had the wrong carrier. The carrier said that if Children's place gave the ok they could put the right address and reship it but children's place wouldn’t give permission. They have horrible customer service and don’t care what happens to the package after they get your money.

I ordered 3 pairs of sunglasses for my daughter which shipped on 5/13/22 and the package did not arrive until 5/28/22, 15 days later. That was not my issue. Children's Place packed 3 tiny pairs of sunglasses in a large box without packing material. It was a big box filled mostly with air. The box got crushed and the tiny glasses which were not secure in the box slipped out. I did not receive 2 out of 3 pairs of the glasses and Children's place refuses to replace them. They point the blame at the delivery carrier. My transaction was not with the carrier. My transaction was with Children's place. Until those items are in my possession, they are not mine. I paid Children’s place $9.65 for items not received due to their poor packing. I would like a replacement OR credit of $9.65. It’s not a large sum, but a large corporation should be able to make it right with a longtime customer. I paid them and they didn’t fulfill transaction.

Horrible experience with this company. I ordered some clothes for my boys and it was shipped to the wrong address. When I tried to call customer service but to my surprise they were closed. When I did finally get in contact with somebody I was informed that the package was already shipped and delivered and the only resolution I was offered was to try and contact the carrier to see if the carrier can go back and retrieve the package. When I asked why I wasn't given the information of who was delivering the package he couldn't answer that question. So now I'm out of money trying to dispute this with my bank and The Children's Place is blocking it claiming that there's no fraud. Well yes it is fraud. First off wrong billing address, wrong shipping address and the wrong individual received the package. I will never, never purchase from the store again and it's sad because they have really decent prices.

I would give them 0 if I could. Placed an order and it said, "Apply for a credit card and you will automatically receive 30% off at checkout." Applied. It said, "Congratulations. You were approved. Your discount will automatically be applied at checkout." Showed me what my new balance would be but when I checked out the 30% was not taken off. I emailed them immediately because their customer service center is closed on weekends. Gave them 5 days to respond.... No answer. Called and they refuse to credit me back the difference. Told me they will give me a coupon for next time. There won't be a next time.

I sent everything to my son directly because they live 2 hours away. Bought everything my grandson needs now because I was supposed to get 30% off. This is false advertising, they do not stand by their own advertisement. They told me to go return everything and repurchase it. I will return everything and never purchase anything from them again.

Ordered from The Children's Place and ordered a pack of shirts size 5/6. They sent me size 4. Went to the store to return and they refused to return them due to no tags on the shirts. They came in a multi pack and had no tags when I received them. Customer service is a joke. They said no returns without tags and no exceptions. How can I return them with tags when they sent them with no tags. When I called back and disputed it they said I need to return to the store and speak to a manager. I spoke to the manager when I was there and she refused to return them. Customer service service said there is nothing they can do. No refund, no exchange, nothing. Awful service. I have never had a problem with customer service before but everything has changed now. Beware.

So I made 3 purchases, spent my last dollars on summer clothes for my son. They charged a second 'ret rev' transactions for each transaction. Basically return reversals without a return! I called and they acted like I was overreacting and said their authorization holds and will be returned within 3- 5 business days. First of all, I cannot afford to have this money pending, I'm a single mom on disability and I now have 90$ in limbo, my account is -62$, I've been charged a 10$ overdraft fee for my account being in the negative, not my fault because this is not a normal nor legitimate transaction! It's not an authorization hold, the money was taken and then a ' return reversal' yet no refund!

It's very Shady that they're doing this and I'm stressed because the money I'm supposed to get April 5th for my son's birthday cake and water table (birthday April 8) will not cover those things if my money is not returned to my bank account! I made an online purchase, I paid and now I feel deceived due to them using a deceitful way to take more money from my account. This is not acceptable. I would like my money returned immediately! Plus an extra ten dollars for the overdraft fee I incurred. I was not informed that any more than what I paid would be taken from my bank account and I did not authorize it. Very unprofessional of them. Who does this? I would suggest to not purchase things online with your own bank account and to use a prepaid Visa debit as to avoid this. I do not want to be stressed out as a customer. That's not the kind of experience I should be getting.

This is the second time that I ordered online but unfortunately, the customer support let you wait for 10 days more to get an update with your order. The last time I ordered, they said my package was lost but in the tracking Purolator didn't pick up my package from the warehouse. So after 2 wks of waiting they refunded my money. So right now, I tried it again and still there's no update, I don't know how they manage their business like this. It's so frustrating because I will use that order for my niece's coming bday.

PayPal added a wrong address to my order (which I cannot even find on my PayPal account to remove). I made a request to change the town in my shipping address within minutes of realizing the error. I am astonished that their customer service is so incredibly poor that they refuse to accommodate such a simple request. They also will not cancel the order even though it was only made minutes ago. They will ship the order and wait for it to be returned to sender, and perhaps after a month, I might receive my $300 back. Rest assured, I will never be shopping with you again in the future. Everyone complains that Amazon is taking an unfair share of the retail market, but perhaps that's because their shopping experience and customer service experience is so far superior to this nonsense. I have less and less sympathy for their competitors.

We purchased around 22.57$ at OCT but didn't receive any email/mail/sms/phone notification that this is the minimum amount I have to pay or this is my billing date. I didn't receive any credit card Statement till date. I totally forgot about this activity and assumed I did the billing from my own credit card, and all of a sudden, my wife received a call on Jan 09 that around 89$ is pending due to late payment. I am literally disappointed with this type of unprofessional behavior and it's a kind of fraud in my view.

On Dec 28, 2021, I placed an order on Children's Place website. Need make changes, so I called their customer services. The agent told me that she canceled my order, I can place a new order. So, I placed a new order. They shipped both orders and charged both to my credit card. I called their customer services again. The agent told me that they shipped on Dec 29. The cancelation on Dec 28 is just a cancelation request, not a real cancelation. I asked him to schedule a pickup for the first order. He told me he cannot do it.

I placed a large order for my son for Christmas as many are currently doing, when I tracked my package noticed that it would be coming while out of town for Thanksgiving. The package was sent UPS SurePost, so I paid UPS 8 dollars to hold the shipment for pick-up at a UPS access point. Somehow there was a mix up and I received a email saying my shipment had been received at the access point, I go to access point to pick up and no package. As I am UPS searched it had continued its journey to my home via USPS and the driver delivered the box to the post office. With SurePost there is no way to hold the shipment for pick up which is important nowadays with package theft so rampant. Unfortunately I live in a area where packages of are stolen within 5-7 min of being put down, when I tracked my package this week it had been delivered to a person. That is all the tracking stated, no signature. Nothing. Just delivered to a person!!!! **.

I called Children's Place and have been getting the run around from both UPS,USPS and Children's Place about fault and Children's Place call center defaults to another country and all they do is read the script. This has been very frustrating since funds are tight this year! A package delivered to someone other than me, doesn't mean delivered. When speaking about this with USPS they confirm it is a known problem for my area and I now have to jump through hoops with USPS. Children's Place will not help me!

I ordered from Children's Place on 11/15. By 11/16 I received a notification that my items have shipped. Great, right? Nope. Almost two weeks had passed and no package so I check the status. My package was out for delivery on 11/28 and then on 11/29 the status was updated to delivery delayed so I contact Children's place. First is hard to get anyone on the phone and when I finally did they said the status would need to be unchanged for 10 days before they consider working out a resolution with me. So I then submit an inquiry with the shipping company because guess what, they don't answer their phones either. I received a generic response and then they marked my package as delivered when they never showed.

I wait 3 days per the instructions on Children's Place website and when I called them back they tell me because the package is marked as delivered they cannot issue a refund and I would have to submit a dispute with my financial institution.

I’ve been purchasing my kids clothings from TCP for years. The last year, it’s been terrible. The final straw was my order for Christmas, placed 11/27/2021. 5 items, all in stock. Was notified it shipped in 2 days and would be delivered 12/1/2021; Then delayed to 12/3/2021. Then no delivery, and no tracking information. TCP told me to take it up with the shipping facility - and if I don’t receive my order by 12/14/2021 I can do something about it.

On any normal circumstances, 17 days to wait for an order wouldn’t be terrible. But this order contains Christmas Day clothing. To wait until 10 days before Christmas to dispute an order seems like I won’t be having the order for Christmas. No one will get back to me. I used my store credit card to purchase this, which mind you- is 26% interest. So I’m paying more and more for items I don’t even have. Secondly, I’d like to comment on their accounting. I have automatic payment set up for my credit card to be debited from my bank account directly. They don’t debit until the day your payment is due. This result in the payment not posting for 24 to 72 hours. Two months in a row I’ve received a $37 late fee. It almost seems like it’s on purpose, cannot debit my account until the due date. Knowing that any transfer will take at least 24 hours.

Any other credit card this does not happen with, especially during Covid. I have four other credit cards I actively use, and none of them charge a late fee. Especially not for their own incompetence. I will not be purchasing my kids clothes from this store/company any further. They’re only worth it when they’re on sale, and honestly, their sales have been pretty bad lately. The cost of their clothes are gone up. Girls clothes cost more than boys clothes for the exact same item?? Take Your business elsewhere.

I asked my elderly neighbor if a package was mistakenly delivered to her and she did not get a delivery. So I waited a few days to see if my package will arrive and still no package. I contacted Children's Place customer service and the lady told me that it shows my package has arrived and it is nothing they can do and will not be able to refund me or send me another package and that I will have to contact the postal carrier to find out where my package was delivered. I have been fighting this for a week now.

Never shop here ever! If your package is lost in the mail, they won't refund your money, because in their eyes it's your fault it's lost. So you just will be shorted out of whatever amount money you spent, they will tell you to address it with everybody but them. So they can keep your money basically they are scammers out to steal your money.

I've done many orders with them and never had an issue, but the last two packages that I ordered, I did not receive them, so I called for help. They kept sending me in circles and telling me to call a bunch of other people. It started getting frustrating to the point where I don't want to do business with them anymore. I still haven't gotten a refund or replacement for both my orders and I don't know what to do because I need my money back.

Bought a winter coat for our child. Size was much bigger than tagged. And way too puffy, so couldn’t be used in car seat. Brought to store to return less than a week later. Was told by clerk the coat was on sale, so, although we paid $80, we would only receive a $45 refund. This is robbery. Asked for manager. Manager Rudely said “do you want to the money or not”? Decided to keep the coat and donate it. Will never shop at this store again. If this store ever comes up in conversation I will tell this story. I will tell this story every time I hear a retail nightmare mentioned. How Rude!

I made a purchase at the mall at the Children's Place & they offered the credit card and blah blah, so she said, "The good thing is you don't need your sales receipt if you need to return when you use your card. I said, "Yes I love that stores do this. It makes it so much easier." So I got the card, even paid it off at that same day, I talked with her saying, "I'm not sure if the clothes will be needed. We think there's a dress code but they aren't sure at the moment." So she said, "If you are going to pay it off & think you will be returning things it will only place your account in a credit of the amount." I said, "I know I love seeing that makes me feel like I have extra money laying around." So that's when she said it about the sales receipt.

But anyway I went to the store without the sales receipt. It was hectic in the store the day that I purchased this stuff. As all back to school parents I'm sure understand my frustration haha. But I went yesterday and they said they can't just run the card for the return. I said, "What do you mean all stores do it," & the lady and I talked about this the day I got the card & made the purchase. She said she doesn't know who told me this but it's not true, so I went on email 3 check for the emailed information that I got that they got my email address for. And I can't find it, she gave me a number and I called it right there in the store.

Meanwhile one of my kids is spinning in circles, the other holding himself cause he has to use the bathroom, the # she gave me was useless, so I tried to call the number on the back of the card & it buzzed in my ear (not like a fax just a strange noise). I said I need to go take the kids to the bathroom and I will be back, well the boy wet his pants on the way so I was all around frustrated.

I got on Google to see who do I call. There's even a spot that you can click for your receipts & I clicked it thinking omg was it this easy? Well it definitely wasn't. So I sat in the family bathroom trying to reach someone to help me with this & got put on hold switched to a different person a few times because they couldn't help me, & turned out once I got to hopefully is the right person they was closed. So today should be such a joy when I go back into the store this time after kids are in school.

I am going to try another store because they definitely wasn't trying to work, the only reason the lady did come to the register was because the girl on register was training and needed help. There were two other store workers standing there chit-chatting about when they went out over the weekend, so when she came up to help the girl she said, "I can help you over here." I thought well damn it's about time, because I was standing there for almost 20 minutes waiting. I wasn't trying to be rude. I could tell the girl was new but I also couldn't understand why two people were standing there just talking while there was a line building up. And then come to find out there's somebody in the back office as well. So I will never return to that store and if I could not get any help with this today they can keep their credit card and shove it up their **. I might just be one person but I hope this helps somebody in my forever rant...

Then I selected to be connected again to a service rep. I once again got a service rep. A gentleman this time who I could hardly understand. I explained that I already paid the balance in full last month which only consisted of a late fee. I told him I'm not paying you another late fee upon a late fee and I asked him if he could reverse it.

He told me he couldn't reverse the late fee because the account was now closed. So I asked for a supervisor and finally I got someone who I could clearly understand. I explained my situation and he told me that I had to reopen the account before he could reverse the late fee. So, I reopened the account and he reversed it. I will close the account as soon as the reversal finishes pending. This took up an hour of my time to have a late fee reversed. I understand cutting down on cost but jeez you're outsourcing to people we can't even understand. And you can't get someone who speaks good English unless you escalate the call.

I have now called customer service at least 4 times. It is March 17. Each time I call I get the same response, read from a manual stating that the order is confirmed and in process but not ready for shipping as yet. The customer service representatives were not able to provide any further information as to the status of the order. They provided no information beyond what was already provided in the original email. They apparently have no way of contacting the warehouse to inquire about the status of the order, other than to send an email, which always returns the same information already provided in the original email. One of the agents actually responded by sending me the same email again.

At this point, it looks like I will have a disappointed child at her birthday and from reading the other reviews, it seems possible that my order might never come. The customer service agents are unapologetic and continually repeat the same information. It seems clear that this company is unclear about what good customer service means.

And she blame me that she asking me if that shoes (the one that I got) and she said I said yes.. She didn’t check first the other shoes (tag) before she leave and check...

I applied for their credit card since 30% was offered off of my order. I have everything ready for checkout in my cart, I have all specific sizes and wanted to check out today. I was not able to do that. I spend long periods of time waiting for someone to answer the phones. However when they did answer, the employees were no help. I specifically had to call multiple numbers for the card then The Children's Place and no one was able to help me. Why advised something if the customer cannot applied the discount on their purchase. This is the worst customer service experience I have ever had.

I read reviews prior to deciding to order several items from The Children’s Place. Reviews warned the company could make multiple charges to your bank account, therefore I decided to purchase a gift card to pay for the items I wanted. I purchased the gift card from Amazon for the exact amount I needed and amazon emailed the card number within minutes! I then completed the order and purchased the items. They were here within a few days. I also decided to “double watch“ the shipping history/dates by going directly to the shipping companies’ websites (USPS and UPS) and signing up for their text updates. This was helpful, as it did not always line up with what the Children’s Place reported through emails. When the clothes arrived, they were great and fit perfectly. So, overall, given the extra steps I had to take to ensure this, my experience was mostly pleasant.

I got an email back saying they’ll contact me soon and gave me case #s for my claims.

It’s been 2 weeks since they sent that email and a few days since I sent another email telling them how unprofessional they’re being. To top it off I was charged for the items and it says they were delivered. I’m annoyed because I purchase double so my kids can match, & one of them has this shoe and that shirt or this shirt & those shorts.

After we made the order, Children’s Place just cancelled some of the items, because the order was probably too cheap and without any info they just send it to Spain. Without our favourite things and most expensive ones in the order. The coupons are used, we don’t have them anymore.

Couple days later we made another order and we put to the basket same items but regular price without the extra coupons. The order was taking much more time this time. Finally they did the same thing. Best items from the order they just cancelled without any information and sent the package. I was writing to them 9 days in a row now - no response! Lack of professionalism, 0 contact, 0 responsibility. Horrible customer service! Phone contact - nothing! Always hanging up the phone and never ending story with too much customers in the line!

Lord knows I have so many Amazon orders out there I am still waiting on. HOWEVER I most definitely am not pleased that they have taken multiple transactions out that I did not make. I guarantee they are doing this because they will file bankruptcy so they are stealing from all customers and do so by drawing you in with the sale. I ordered $143.43 of product and saved $201. Since May 12th I have had 11 transactions come out totaling $546.50. I have bought from the actual store multiple times so I had no reason to believe they would do this. I cancelled my card because I noticed this going on last night after my bank was closed and The Childrens Place customer service.

I had 2 alerts for $107.35 and another for $68.91, which total more than my original order. That's when I started looking through my bank statement online. After multiple attempts today on calling The Childrens Place, it finally went through and I got a hold of someone. What a joke that was. She went through the transactions they supposedly made and told me they only charge when they ship. "No Lady (her actual name) your company is committing fraud and overcharging customers." I can't believe how often they are doing this to people after reading the reviews now. I really do believe they are about to file bankruptcy.

Customer Service is blaming my bank and after talking to my bank they are saying it's the Children's Place. I filed a Dispute on all transactions made from this company since I have not received but 1 item so far. I had The Children's Place send me all transactions they supposedly made and we will see how long it will take to get all my money back now.

When I got my order, I saw that the amount had not been changed. When I called them, I just got the arrogant answer that that tax rate (10%) was in their "system", and couldn't be changed.

I called the Oklahoma Tax Commission about the matter, and I was advised that Children's Place did not have authority to collect city taxes from me, and that Children's Place had an easy system that any employee could understand, but that they needed to get the correct "system." They are just lazy and do not want to put out the effort to get it right. So they arrogantly continue to illegally collect taxes from customers.

If a customer orders from your website you should always go above and beyond to rectify the situation. It should never be the customers fault to fix a problem regarding delivery. I am no longer shopping with Children's place. Integrity is a very valuable asset. Hopefully you change this so that you can retain customers.

Be careful with this company and with PayPal they are a bunch of thiefs, I made a return in Centennial Las Vegas store on 02/01/20202 from an online order. They never refunded the money to my account! I messaged Children's Place 2/10/2020 and after asking what could I do since I missed place the receipt Paula **. didn’t bother replying, I talked to different ppl one of them told me to call this store so they could help me get a copy of receipt and the manager here didn’t bother calling me back.

I contacted paypal and after a few days they closed the case (on their favor) before the 10 days they give was up. I found the receipt PayPal said they issued a refund to my card (never did) after the case was completely closed PayPal took money I had and left a negative balance in their account. Cause they closed the case once again in childrensplace favor.

If you are like me that buys from this company (over 10+yrs not giving them problems) all the time save every receipt you get for a few days, and double check your account within 3-5 business days if you made the mistake of paying with PayPal, if you can don’t pay with PayPal so you can your money back instore.

It’s been more than a month and I still have to call PayPal so they can fix the problem and give me all the money they took.

I have more pictures but I can’t upload most due to the information it contains that I can cover or removed, but you can see there when the purchase was made and that I never received refund like they said, PayPal wants me to wait another 20 days to help me solve the problem.

I placed an order 3 months ago. It was delivered to the wrong house. I went in to the store and bought the items because I needed them by that weekend. I called their corporate office and told them the items were shipped to the wrong house. They said I had to wait 3 weeks while they "Investigated" the dispute. Nobody once has called me back or emailed me. I have called them probably 20 times and every time they tell me to call back next week. I am working with Comenity bank who has helped more than they have but the charges still have not been removed. Never in my life have I dealt with such a terrible company. I just want to cancel my card with them and never shop there again but I refuse to be stuck paying for something I didn't receive. Every time I reach out to them it takes an hour of my time and I get nowhere. Just don't shop here.

Bought a pair of slippers for my daughter which did not fit her properly. Went to the store to return it (had return receipt with me) within two weeks and they refused to accept. Reason they gave was that I was missing the price tag on the slippers. The store manager said she cannot pull up the details using just the receipt. Called their customer care and they were of no help either. In fact initially they gave the same reason of not having price tag and just having return receipt is not sufficient and at a later point during the discussion, they gave a different reason altogether saying how do they know if the pair of slipper is new or used. Such pathetic are these people that they were giving nonsense reasons to not accept the return (Of course my daughter did not even wore the slippers for a day and they were brand new). They also refuse to exchange it for a bigger size. Never going to shop again here and gonna close my account with them.

After selecting items and having the cashier total my items at the cash register, the register system froze once it processed my debit card transaction. The money clearly showed it left my account when I logged into my bank account and even after a month the amount is still taken out. I asked for a refund and the store told me they couldn’t issue a refund because there wasn’t a receipt or anything showing in their system that a transaction was processed. BUT the money is taken out of my BANK account!!! The Children’s Place is stealing money from hard working citizens and they should be reported. An investigation needs to placed on this scamming company. News outlets need to investigate. I want my money credited back to my bank account for items I Was charged for and was not allowed to take with me!!!!

I tracked my package and it stated it had been delivered by USPS, but I never received it. I then called customer service and the rep and a supervisor told me that nothing could be done on their part cause the tracking stated delivered and therefore for me to contact USPS. I am very disappointed that after being a loyal customer for many years they couldn't replace my package. They basically don't care because they got my money and I have no package. I will never order from them again, so please everyone beware!

I ordered couple of jeans for my son but never received the package. The UPS service that The Children's Place use, telling me that it was delivered, while I never received the package. Dead end from that side. I called Children's Place and they wouldn't do anything besides referring me back to UPS. I get a runaround. Poor customer service.

I usually shop online for my children’s clothes. I’ve never had any bad experiences and deliveries were great. However on 1/8/2020, I needed to get a few things from the Forest Hills store in Queens, and the cashier was very rude. I do not understand how an employee of the store can talk openly like that. She spoke about her personal issues with another employee. She was rude to my daughter. I think someone like her need to be trained again and have better manners. She is a reflection of the company. Personal problems and issues should be addressed in the break room and not on the sales floor. I am here to shop not to listen to your problems.

As many of the reviews have already expressed, online ordering is quite the pain. In my case, it was no different. I placed an order on 12/17. Based on an email I received, orders placed prior to 12/18 at 5PM would qualify for guaranteed Christmas delivery. On 12/20 I received confirmation that my order had shipped. I checked the tracking as instructed and it showed a delivery date of 12/23. 12/23 came and went and my order was nowhere to be found. I checked tracking again and the delivery date had been updated to 12/24. 12/24 came and went and tracking showed "on its way" as the delivery date.

On 12/27 my order still had not arrived and I contacted customer service online. I went back and forth with them all day, with the same rep responding to my messages and telling me that since I placed my order on 12/17, it did not qualify for guaranteed Christmas delivery. That this offer was only for orders placed on 12/18 by 5pm, not orders placed by 12/18 at 5PM, despite the email I sent a screen shot of showing orders placed "by" 12/18 and not "on" 12/18.

The whole time I continued to check tracking and it continued to show "on its way". On 12/28 I called customer service and they don't me I would have to wait until 12/30, then call back if my order wasn't received and they would put in a search for the package. They also told me the same line about guaranteed Christmas delivery applying only to orders placed on 12/18 and that since I placed mine on 12/17, it didn't qualify. I repeatedly told them this was not acceptable since the email I showed stated otherwise. An hour later I was finally on with a supervisor.

It took the supervisor another half hour to issue the refund. Though they couldn't offer me an explanation as to why I was told by multiple reps that the Christmas delivery guarantee only applied to orders placed on 12/18. I told the supervisor that I didn't believe my order ever actually shipped out. I'm further convinced of this by the fact that they didn't say what I should do with the order, should it happen to arrive. I sent repeated feedback emails regarding my experience and never received one response. It's clear that they don't value their customers. Because of this, that will be the last time I shop with them. The store locations are no better. They are cluttered and jammed with merchandise. Checkout takes forever, even if you are the only customer in line.

I placed an order on 12/30/19, my package still had not been delivered as of 1/7/20. I called customer service and a very rude lady that I could barely understand said my package was returned to sender because I moved without a forwarding address. The only problem with that is I have not moved. I understand this is not something they did, but when I asked if I could reorder what I ordered and get the same discounts and use the same rewards I used on the original ordered she said "that's not how that works" with a very condescending tone. I have spent over $350 on clothes and was using my rewards from the money I spent on this order. She said all they can do is give me a refund in 14 to 28 business days, and ALL my reward points are used up and gone.

I placed an order on December 23rd 2019 and they cancelled my order. I called in to customer care on the 24th and I couldn’t get an answer as to why my order was canceled. A nice young lady by the name of Samantha opened a case for me and told me I would get a response in 48 hours with a follow up. Fast forward to Thursday 12/26 and I have still not gotten a follow up. Now I’m mad. I called back and was informed my a manager that a new case would be submitted and I would hear from someone with 2 days. (Assuming it’s business days) I still did not get a follow up on Monday December 30th. Frustrated, I called back and spoke to another manager who said by Tuesday I would get a response. Tuesday which is New Year’s Eve, I called back but their offices were closed. I ended up calling back on Thursday January 2nd. Spoke to another manager who’s now telling me 2 more days.

At this point I lost it. Waiting for over a week to place an order? Unheard of. I called their corporate office and made a complaint with BBB. Finally Friday 01/03 I got approval that I could place a new order. Their email didn’t outline why I couldn’t place an order just that it was not sufficient for processing and placement. BBB came through for me because I got an email stating I was block from placing orders because of a chargeback first July 2019 for $19. Apparently back in July when my order was placed the shipping address was incorrect. I called to modify the address and was unable to do so. Their Customer Service Rep advised me to call my bank and see if they could help which was what I did. I’m not understanding if I called in and they tell me what I’ll need to do and I did it then why am I being penalized? It was just a back experience overall and I hope no one has to go through this again. Ever!

First of all I love Children's Place plus I have 6 grandkids that enjoy wearing their clothes but my problem is I did all this shopping before the holidays and was able to catch all the deals and then I get the cash bucks to use after Christmas. Well everything is now marked 2-3x the price. I have 17 coupons meaning I have to spend $20 to get $10 off. I just spent $250 for presents. It's not fair and you have to use it in 10 days. Yes it's helpful but really I need to pay my bill off not buy full price.

I placed two orders online at the Childrensplace.com on December 27, 2019. The items were available when I placed them on December 27, 2019. I receive emails of order and shipping information once it was sent. I track my orders to see the status of them. The items were suppose be delivered on January 4, 2020. I was told both packages were delivered, I have received only partial items from each orders. When I called customer service I got the worst experience with both the representative and the manager Matiicka. Neither one of them were able to help me, answer my question or track the rest of my order. I was told I had to just wait for when It show up at my house. I will never order online with them or shop at the store. I suggest customer if you going buy items to go to store. Online shopping with Children Place your items gets lost and they steal your money.
