I bought a pair of shoes that broke the first time I wore them before I even got in the car, and the store wouldn't take them back.
Great store! The clothes aren't in the best quality but will still last for some time. Cute clothes for anyone. The prices are reasonable.
If you buy do not expect any return without paying shipping fee or worst case scenrio no return at all if you do not like it
Worst experience rude behaviour late delievery. Rude behaviour of delivery agent. Worst experience r
I will NEVER EVER shop with this company again. I will complain non stop until my problem is resolved. Horrible dishonest company!
Well, I purchased a pair of shoes. First no one is on the floor to help you like most stores. Not only that they lied and said they didn't have the shoe and I found this $#*! myself then I went to go purchase the shoes the security tag was held on by the price tag she took the security tag off I purchased the shoes asked if I would have a problem returning them I use my credit card she said no I wouldn't have a problem I said will can you hold them instead she said she could only hold them to the end of the day I said OK well I'll just purchase them but if I don't want them I'm going to bring them back mind you I had the receipt they were and visibly not worn and the cashier who is active the desk when I purchased them heard the whole conversation but then when I went to return them He acted like he wasn't there I'm like you were a witness you saw what happened why can I exchange the shoes they hurt I don't like them what is the problem basically they suck they have the worst customer service where is training the store is always dirty it's always cluttered there's never anyone on the floor to help you you ask a question no one knows where anything is there the most laziest sales people ever
I ordered a gift card for my daughter's birthday. I was told she would receive it by email within 24-48 hours... it didn't happen. My daughter's birthday was on July 8th and there was no gift card. My daughter and I were disappointed. I called customer service which is advertised to be opened Monday through Saturday. There was a recording on Saturday stating they were closed on Sunday. Did Forever 21 get their days mixed up. When I made the purchase, Forever 21 charged my credit card immediately, but did not fulfill my order. I called Monday morning, stayed on hold what seemed like forever. Finally someone answered... again, they promised to send me a copy of the confirmation and stated my daughter would have the gift card within 24-48 hours. Again, they lied. I was told I was talking to a supervisor. I didn't believe it. 72 hours went by, and still my daughter had not received the gift card at hDr email. I called again after 72 hours, was put on the usual long hold and asked for a supervisor, again. Someone picked up the line, stating she was a supervisor. I asked her to cancel the order and refund my credit card. She asked me to hold on whill she connected me to a supervisor. I said, "You told me you were a supervisor." She didn't answer me. Next, I was connected to someone else who announced herself as a supervisor. I expressed how did appointed I was with Forever 21. I asked for a credit back to my credit card since my daughter has not received her birthday gift which was 5 days ago. She said Forever 21's policy did not refund and that all sales were final. I reminded her that nothing was received at my daughter's email address. She said that was Forever 21's policy and there would be no refund. I expressed how dismayed I was and Forever 21 just lost my family as customers. Money goes where it's invited, and only stays where it's treated well.
First and last time I bought anything from Forever21 was in August. I ordered several items online. Their sizing chart is a JOKE and it is impossible to gauge if anything will truly fit. Also, some of their tops are not represented or described as being crop tops but that is actually what they are. I got my order, no issues with shipping. I kept a few things but a couple things were too large and one top that I actually liked very much in the picture was a crop top. Just what the world wants to see is my jelly roll hanging out. Um no! There's no way in hell I would have ordered it IF the picture had accurately represented the top in the first place. So, as per their **horrible** return policy, I packed the clothing I didn't want back up and shipped it back, on MY dime, in the original bag it came in for a refund. A week or so later, I received an email from Forever21 saying that the items were "final sale" items and that I would either have to pay for them to be returned to me or they would be discarded. Thus began a month-long + nightmare of trying to either get the clothing or my money back from Forever21. NOWHERE on my invoice did it state these were "final sale" items. I tried emailing, calling, Facebook chats etc. etc. Etc. But, in the end, since I paid through PayPal, I filed a dispute with them and they refunded my money - which is a pretty good testament to how SHADY this company really is! FOREVER21 KEPT MY MONEY AND THE CLOTHES! They had NO intention of ever giving me either one back. Once they get YOUR MONEY, you will play hell EVER getting it back from them! I have NEVER been treated that way by a retailer before. They will never see one PENNY of my money again and I will tell EVERYONE I know! They DO NOT care about their customers AT ALL!
I placed an order a while back and I'm just now getting to write a review. So I placed my order and never received a notification email or a tracking email, nothing. But I knew they got it because my money was taken from my card that day. So I wait 2 weeks and never receive it so I call and the guy told me to allow this many days for shipping well I had already waited 2 weeks with 0 emails. So my order total was $29. I finally received the order a few days later but it had no receipt in it just the return sticker label well I didn't like the items so I go to the mall to return them, also had to return something to finish line anyway, the closest mall with forever 21 is and hour and a half drive for me so I went. They would not return it because it didn't have a receipt I said I never got one or an email they all just starred at me and said we cant sorry. I even had the return sticker they couldn't use that or look up my order. So I ship both items back, have to pay $9 at the post office to ship it back! And about 3 weeks later my checking account had a refund of $14 from forever 21. I am not sure where the $14 even came from but looking at all the other reviews I am lucky to have even gotten that as it looks like they have scammed a lot of people out of money. Idk how this store hasn't got in trouble for this yet seeing how many people they've done it to! My main point is don't shop here! Definitely don't online shop from this store! I wouldn't have even given a one star if it didn't make me put one to submit this review!
*Also the forever 21 I had trouble with at the mall was the one in Huntington West Virginia* but I am sure all the stores are the same with horrible customer service.
Im in love with forever 21, There prices are abosoulty amazing, and i spend like hundreds each week, they stay following the lastest trends!
Order had wrong billing address and was charged to my credit card. Costumer service wouldn't help. Will never by from them again
I love their clothing, but when the plus size range is large to 3x and runs small there aren't many choices.
I usually dont have problems with shopping at forever 21. I mind my own business and I try to be nice because I know what it was like working in retail, but what I got, was so absurd. I dont have much emotions for it. I was shopping with my best friend, at the arbor lakes forever21 store. As me and my friend were going to go pay for our merchandise, Me and my friend ended up being on the wrong side of where the line actually started; we were pointed to where the line actually started and moved there. The cashier that told us we were on the wrong side said it with an attitude and snickered some words under her breathe, but we still heard it. I blew off her words and continued to be nice and appreciative for working in retails because I know retail is not for everyone. But the same cashier that pointed us to the correct start line, became my cashier. I kept to myself and only talked when I was going to pay. I smiled, and said thank youand left the store. Little did I know, my cashier left a little note on the back of my receipt. Now, if I was a true $#*! and saw my receipt before I left the store, I wouldve gone back and $#*!ed the $#*! out of her and told her to call her manager in. My receipt said; $#*!-a you.
I did not see my receipt until I got home and was putting my clothes away. I wasnt sure if I should be mad or confused as to why I was even given that nasty note that I didnt deserve it. I thought about going back to the store to go and confront that little Asian cashier that I had and give her a piece of my mind, but its not worth it. Little does that cashier know, I am friends with her supervisor. So jokes on her. :)
Return policy sucks. Worst experience ever. Got stuck with more than $50 worth of clothes that don't fit. BEWARE OF THE COUPON SCAM!
I just got regular shipping and came in 3 days LOVE ITTT! 2 articles of clothing one body suit and one choker
My complaint is your no return policy which i did not see till i received these items that i ordered for my niece for christmas, thinking she could exchange at a store if they did not fit. Now I am being told not only can she not exchange them she cannot even return them as i took advantage of a 10% online coupon.
Had a pop up or notice come up saying this was a total non returnable item when i went to pay i would not have done this order online and would have gone to a store.
I called and was told so sorry tough luck. Here is return policy- nowhere does it say using a promo code makes your entire order NON RETURNABLE.

The price is very cheap and maybe that's the reason why it's of poor quality. Will never try again
If you guys could make a skater skirt that will actually cover my $#*!ing butt that would be great
Answer: Yes, its horrible customer service and if you return items purchased online to the return address provided. The items disappear even with postal tracking to say it was delivered. I return 8 pair of jeans in the same box original box. Forever 21 warehouse said i rerurn 1 item. Does not make sense to pay $20.00 delivery confirmation to return 1 pair of $8.00 jeans. Be aware, someone in the warehouse does not scanning the return items and keep it for their own use or sale. Which makes it bad for honest customers that want to return items for exchange. Customer service was no help and basically said nothing was return but 1 pair of jeans. I ask for warehouse contact information, i was told its confidential. Do not purchase!
Answer: It's the same as in store. 21 days with tags attacthed, for instore credit or exchange.
Answer: Call them and ask for a track number
Answer: I orederd 3 item I got only 2. But they kept mentioning 3 item delivered... I didnt got my jogger pant which I orederd for my younger brother. I mailed them 100 times they only send auto generated message nothing else nd I have already paid money for the pant... I called customer service no response. No refund they cheated me. I hate forever 21 its not trustworthy its fraud
Answer: Dispute the charge with bank. This company is lacking on customer service
