This company is crap! They charge you $150 for replica jerseys which are avg $30 more expensive then Reebok used to be. Logos and numbers are screen printed and heat pressed on. Older replicas were still single stitched for less... DO NOT BUY!
The order arrived, but setting up guest vs individual accounts, tracking shipments, getting invoices, trying to navigate fan cash is a nightmare, clearly dont care much about customer service once they have your cash.
David,
We want to apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. Please reach out to Customerfirst@Fanatics.com and we will be more than happy to provide you with some information.

Stay away! I bought and received team house shoes that cost over $40.00. After less than 4 months of normal wear, the right side on the right shoe became completely unraveled and unwearable. Customer service stated that because it was past 60 days, there was nothing that they could do, not even a partial refund. Bogus!
Hello Mark, we are terribly sorry to hear about your negative experience! We would love to have the chance to make this right. If you will, please send us a private message with your order number. We would like the chance to look at this further and resolve this for you. Again, we apologize and hope to hear from you soon. Thanks, Ceterija
Horrible customer service kept sending me same EMAIL over and over none of which made any sense. Nothing about my order just kept blaming it on another department... 3 day mail BS also says if you don't get in 3 days it's free... well it's been 10 days. They are liars...
Hi Debbie. Thank you for your feedback. We have reviewed your communication history and find it to be unacceptable. We are so sorry, and have reached out to you directly via e-mail. We hope to hear back from you soon. Sincerely, Sarah B.
Ordered two packages on 11/30. Neither arrived via fedex. Called to request a replacement and they could only process one because the second items was still in delivery exception status. They then charged me $8 for expedited shipping. No mention of this by customer service representative when offering to reship. Even with "expedited shipping" will not arrive until after Christmas.
Had to call back a second day to get charge reversed and arrange for the second item to reship. Call center staff were friendly but call quality poor (offshore call center). Confusing phone tree and not helpful
Hello George, I apologize for the situation at hand. Can you please email me directly at customerfirst@fanatics.com for additional assistance? I look forward to hearing from you.-Amethyst
Ordered a FI polo which arrived ok but was of very poor quality and soiled instead of looking white it looked grey like it had been stored somewhere dusty. Returned it after paying a fee and recd a no reply email saying item received and that I should receive refund in 10 days … 2 months later and still waiting. No customer services contact details available and my Credit card company now dealing with it!
This company should be blacklisted going by my experience and other reviews on this website

I have placed multiple orders on different sites and they never go through. Show as "refunded." No email notification, nothing. I am paying full price and buying directly from my university online shop.
Hello John, thank you for your feedback! We are so sorry to hear about this experience and would love to work with you to get this resolved. Please reach out to us here via private message and provide your email address and we would be happy to work with you to find out what went wrong with your purchase. Thank you again, we hope to hear from you soon! Sincerely, Christina.
Order shirts on sun. Chose 3 day shipping, product will not arrive till monday 8 days later. They us FedEx which isn't the best in delivering in my experience. My order is sitting at FedEx distribution center 15 min from me, will be there for 2 days waiting for postal to pickup for delivery. This is third time we ordered and always had a problem. But it seems fanatics is contract to handle sports gear for NFL. Will return order soon as it arrives, then I get to start that headache.
Hello Karl, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about the shipping mistake. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. I have waived the return shipping fee. Please return the package by any local post office. It will take up to 10 business days to receive the return. It may take anywhere between to 2 to 7 business days to reflect on your financial statement. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
My wife got the same treatment as many others have had with these super bowl 50 items. Shirts were sent way later than their advertising promised. Shirts will arrive AFTER the game. No explanation other than their "apologies". How about you apologize with a refund or an incentive for us that actually indicates you somewhat care about lousy customer service and false advertising...
Hello Matt. Thanks for your feedback. We are sorry that your order was delayed. It was due to an extremely high shipping volume. We have issued a partial refund for your order and we have given you some store credit for the inconvenience. We sent you a separate email with more information. Sincerely, Karmen/Executive Fan Relations
I called your customer service line and got connected with Miss Paris who helped me find the tracking number for Order #: 107-4262-2691. She was very friendly and very helpful and now that I know where my item is, I'm a happy guy! Thank you!
Hello Benjamin, we are so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Julian
Ordered on 12/8/19 --- paid for in full on 12/9 --- shipped on 12/10 (LOL)
Money paid.
12/26 --- No product delivered. (I would add a photo, but there is nothing to take a picture of)
No customer service.
If you want elevator music from hell call *******397 for the runaround.
PS: Chat line not working, either.
Merry Effing Christmas from your Friends at Fanatics!
LOL
We are very sorry that you did not receive your order. It appears your package was lost in transit and a refund was issued on December 26th. Thank you, Karmen
I ordered two things over a week ago, both of which on the website said that they should've been shipped the next day. Online it still says that my order is "new" and I'm not even sure if they have charged my card yet. Either way, it was supposed to get here within 3-7 business days and it has been longer than that. Like what almost everyone else who has reviewed them has said, what they say about their shipping times is completely false. I tried to email and only got an automated response that was no help at all.
Hello Grace, thank you for your feedback! We reviewed your order and see that it has shipped and is out for delivery as of this morning. You should have your package any minute now, and we are so sorry for any confusion or delays! As a courtesy we have issued a 20% refund back to the original method of payment. We hope this is acceptable, and welcome you to reach out via Private Message if there is anything else we can do to make this right for you. We value your business and hope to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Sarah B.
I've ordered more than $1,000 worth of Atlanta Braves merchandise from them this season. While 1/4 of the items I ordered were mis-sized and needed to be returned for a different size - which is frustrating - their customer service department has been super professional and helpful each time. They've emailed me return labels to avoid shipping fees on items that were too large or too small for the size. So, while I have had some questions about the quality of a couple items (usually in terms of size not matching the tag), I've been very impressed with their willingness to take care of the customer and get us the corrected sizes, or (in one case) they took my complaint about a shirt's quality and said they'd had other complaints and would soon stop ordering from that supplier, so feedback does work :)
Hello Shaphan, we are so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Julian
I didn't receive my Tennessee Titans Hawaiian shirt and they won't refund me or even give me in store credit because it is past their 90 day policy. Sorry but due to covid and Christmas I just suspected slow delivery. Wow did I get screwed.
Placed an order on November 30,2022. The invoice said 3 to 7 business days. It's now December 20. Tried live chat - live chat says I can expect the delivery on December 19. Good programming job there. Tried to speak to a human. No humans. Tried calling corporate headquarters. They don't accept calls. Called another 800 number, the chat there put me through to a human. Unfortunately, she knew only what I did that this organization is totally screwed up. But she apologized 30 times in 5 minutes and I still have no idea where my order is. All we know is that it hasn't shipped yet. No updates. Just crickets. Will play this game one more day and then cancel the order.
Hello George. We are truly sorry to hear about your experience with us. We would love a chance to make this right. If you email customerfirst@fanatics.com with your order number and name, we will be happy to make this right. We apologize again for the inconvenience and hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely, Shanick
Chat online is never available, even during working hours. Phone service just tells you worthless stuff without giving you a human being to talk to. It's their fault that the fitted hat is bigger than it should be. I'll never order anything from them again.
Hello Ric, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that you were unable to get through to our Customer Service Department. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. I have emailed you a return label to send the hat back. You can print out the label and attach it to the package. The package can be dropped off at any local post office, FedEx Store, mail drop box. I have also waived the return shipping fee. It can take up to 10 business days to reach our warehouse and be processed. You will receive a confirmation email. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Orders a men's x large sweatshirt and it barely fits my girlfriend. She's 5"5 about 120 lbs. Its big enough but the length is so short. It's almost like it was shrunk in a dryer. And they try to charge you $10 to return it. What crap I'll never use this company again.
Charges to your card are performed immediately, even for items that wait a week or two to ship. You pay for shipping but may not get it the service levels communicated, as each item has a service quality--pay attention to that. You can't actually receive a tracking number in the order online (despite all the links that say track your order), You only get tracking in e-mail, so DEFINITELY don't delete that. You also cannot cancel without resorting to text chat. There's no customer service phone number, which is preferred to me when there's a problem. Given the high cost of these products, you'd expect them to "up their game".
For the products that did ship and arrive on time, it was fine, but I expect web sites to have more capabilities for the customer to track and serve themselves. This feels a lot like web e-commerce 1.0. Given the above technology and process problems alone, I'd suggest alternative sites.
Hello Sterling. Thanks for your feedback. We apologize if you had any issues with your order. We actually do provide a phone number on our website. It is located in the Customer Service section on the website. We also have email and live chat options to contact us. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to assist you. Sincerely, Karmen
My grandson did his wish list for Christmas what he wanted was very easy to find the stuff that he had and you get your stuff within 2 days, What's nice as well every order you earn points to use it on another order. Thank you very much a satisfied Nana
Wish I had read some reviews before ordering a Final Four t-shirt. Wanted it for an alum as a surprise gift to wear for the game Saturday. Ordered on Thurs. And paid for next day by noon shipping. No shipping email as of 10:00 am PDT so I did an online chat and was told they had a pre-set ship date of today, the day before the event. I could have paid $5 more for Saturday delivery and agent told me they don't deliver on Saturdays. Seems a bit slimy. Use caution with this site. Read the review of the Atlanta Braves fan that wanted a jersey for opening day. Feel for ya' Justin. How can they continue to respond with "customer satisfaction is our number one concern" and have less than 2 stars from over 1150 reviews?
Hello Phil, thank you for your feedback! We are so sorry to hear about this experience and would love to work with you to get this resolved. Please reach out to us here via private message and provide your full and complete order number and we would be happy to work with you to find out what went wrong with your purchase. Thank you again, we hope to hear from you soon! Sincerely, Julian
Answer: I have no experience ordering from Australia so I'm afraid I will be of no help. I do agree that the holiday will add a little extra time but I don't believe it's as bad as everyone is saying. I don't know why I had such a good experience with them when it sounds like everyone else is angry with them. I'm curious to see how it goes for you.
Answer: Good luck. I just kept getting stupid answers until I filed a BBB complaint. Then I got instant satisfaction.
Answer: Hello Timo, Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your business! Mike, Shannon, and Brad -- We would love to have an opportunity to work with you each regarding your less-than stellar experiences. Please provide your order numbers so that we may research and work on resolving your poor experiences! We value each of you and hope you will give us an opportunity to make this right.
Answer: No kidding. These fools are liars and thieves. They literally have fulltime dedicated employees who monitor sites like SiteJabber to provide responses to all the well deserved, nasty Fanatics reviews. It is entirely likely that any and all positive reviews touting their customer service are internally generated by their own employees. Write letters to your licensing body whether it be NFL or MLB and let them know about Fanatics and their FRAUDULENT and DECEPTIVE business practices. Fanatics should be glossed as Fraudnatics. BUYER BEWARE!
Answer: Hello, Thank you for reaching out to us. When an item is found to be out of stock the money is refunded back to the original form of payment. In addition, we issue a store credit on top of this for the inconvenience.
Answer: I would not worry to much about the negative feedback. You should get your items delivered to you with no problem. It might take a little time to be delivered but I had no problems with fanatics.
Answer: Please provide us with the contact information we can best reach you with so that we can pass this along. Julia.
Answer: Thank you for your correspondence. I am very sorry that you had this issue with the item. If you could please private message me your order number so I can take a further look?
Answer: Hello, thank you for reaching out. Upon reviewing your orders should arrive no later than December 13,2017.
Answer: Thank you for reaching out Michael. Refunds can take 2-7 business days for the refund to reflect back on the form of payment that was used at checkout. Thanks, Cayla
