“Bras”

Marci W.
8/31/23

My name is Marci Wilk and I want to say thank you so much for the patience that Assistant Manager Theresa gave me when I was having problems finding a good bra. She helped me so much that I finally found a fantastic bra that fits and is comfortable. Its such a pleasure shopping at Lane Bryant and if I need help there's always someone there to take care of me.

“So not shop online”

Philaurlynn D.

Using their website on a phone is beyond difficult. It's not formatted for phones so the left side of the screen is cut off. Customer service is useless. They have no access to your order or your cart therefore you have to provide every stitch of information that you already tried to enter in the to the website. Including the SKU number of the article you want to buy. Outrageous and horrible.

I have been a customer of Lane Bryant for many years. My dissatisfaction is not with the merchandise but with the credit card. After having the card for about three months I had a balance of about $68 and went to one the local stores in my area. I asked about the TOTAL balance on my card and paid it off then. I now have a balance of about $101 after making the payment. I had NO purchases. My balance consisted of two late fees of $30 and one late fee of $37. When I was finally able to get on line, if I had not made a payment by the due date of the current Month, that next fee would have been a late fee of $42. It seem that although I had paid the balance OFF, there was a residual amount of interest of less than $5. My balance of $101, consisted of $97 worth of late fees. To "add salt to my wound", when I initially called customer service to ask for my fees back, i was " conveniently disconnected". I didn't curse nor was I berating but I did let the rep know how upsetting the situation was to me. The "disconnection" occurred when I asked her to ensure that the ONLY fee they were able to refund me had better be the most recent and highest of ALL THREE fees. The one for $37. Subsequently, I had to call again and repeat my story. Setting up online is not a "smooth" process and in my defense, because I know I had paid off the balance in the store I wasn't expecting a subsequent bill. Good customer service is vital. The disconnection was "too convenient". I waited a little to see if I would receive a call back as I know they have my phone number. You have to verify your phone number every time you place a call. However I was not valuable enough to receive one. How much longer will I have this card? I'm certainly not inclined to remain a customer after this scenario.

I like the clothes that I buy here, but was very dissatisfied when I returned an online order to the store for a DIFFERENT SIZE, not a REFUND but for a smaller size and I was told I could not do that nor could I get a refund … I had the receipt and I had only had the merchandise TWO WEEKS! Lane Bryant you lost a good customer!

I bought some pants and they ripped the same day. Since I wore them, I can't get a refund. I normally only stick to panties, bras, and yoga pants, but I think I am done all together. What a waste? Since I have been ordering online and I get half off in the store when I pick up order, I decided to try some casual pants on 3 different occasions. I didn't have a problem with the other 2 and has worn them multiple times without ripping. All of a sudden a pair ripped on the first time. That put a bad taste in my mouth all together.

Tried to buy online from them. Approved by my bank numerous times. Reversed over and over on their end. Problem now is my credit card is short $199.03 since they kept running it. I'm jumping through hoops trying to get my money back that they stole. Watch what these people do with your charge card. They may steal from you too. Plus their customer service is horrible and they lie. Never will I go to a lane bryant again!

Today around 7:00 PM, I visited the Lane Bryant in the Arlington Highlands, TX shopping center. Since they were in the middle of a clearance sale, the store was quite busy. I selected half a dozen items and headed toward the dressing room area. An LB associate greeted me, introduced herself as April and led me to a dressing room.

I decided to buy a jumpsuit and three blouses. When I arrived at the checkout, there were two associates manning the register. Each one had a customer. When one of them was free, I approached her. She said she was going to restock and left me standing there without even an apology. The other associate continued with her existing customer. Just as I was getting irritated at being left high-and-dry by the associate, April came forward from the front of the store and offered to check me out. She was pleasant, interested in my choices and extremely professional. This particular store is not known to have pleasant staff. April was a clear exception. She restored my good mood with her graciousness. She deserves a promotion!

I rated it a 3 because my birthday coupon states balance must equal $20.01. It was 27. Something before tax shipping free etc than I was told these same 3 items were totaling $37 something and I had to buy more items to use my bday coupon. I just had 3 orders 2 bigger orders. I prefer not getting the birthday coupon you have to spend 50 or more even though coupon states $20.01. A waste of my time...

I recently bought about $500.00 of spring clothing and have shopped here for many years. Generally I have been very happy with service and clothing I have bought. I'm very disappointed this tine after purchasing a pair of Boyfriend Capri's. I wore them once for 1/2 day and they stretched and bagged out so bad that they were 2 sizes bigger in the waist. This is unacceptable. The buyer should know when they buy clothing how much things stretch and pass this info on the customers. I called about returning them for this reason and they said no I could not! Well OK... I will now continue to shop in the upper shelf brand named stores that I won't mention here, where I can ALWAYS return for an issue even if something is washed.or worn. No excuse for this except the store owners put greed and selfishness, "profits in pockets", ahead of good customers.Need to put in description that this stretches at the waist and bags out 2 entire sizes after wearing a short few hours. I do not have a camera phone just an old fashioned flip phone.

Tip for consumers:
This is a terrible store policy. Even with receipt and only 1 day old the Boyfriend Capri's stretched and bagged out so bad it was 2 extra sizes in the waist. The BUYER of the store should know this and not buy this material. CHEAP and then turn around and sell for high price to good customers.

Donna was great! My mom and I were there to try on bras and she helped us for over an hour to get just the right thing. Donna get 5 stars! However, they had signs all over the store BOGO for $10. I loaded up on some really cute tops and when I got to the register they only took $10 off each top. Needless to say I left with no tops.

I like lane bryant and their clothes. I needed new underwear and ordered some online and applied for the credit card and was accepted. Everything came and the sizes were wrong. I called customer service and they were of no help. Told me to go to my local store. I did and returned all items. They only credited me part of the $. No one could explain why so I had to pay $8.61 to not get charged anymore by them. On the first purchase, that's a terrible way to do business. I think I'll just shred the card.

Don't buy anything here unless you know you want to keep it.

I ordered items for christmas and the lady said that they would price match their goof up that never happened and that was on orders placed on december the 10th and the 11th
So now here we are in january and the same damn thing is happening again only this time when I placed my order it said free shipping or I would never have ordered it
So buyer beware when ordering from lane bryant they'll say that they don't charge you shipping and then oh you have shipping charges of 895 I'm done with online ordering which means I will be naked the rest of my life

This company is a scam, dishonest, and a complete joke! I've had a card with them for years. I had a $300 limit and without any warning they lowered it to $100 limit. They had no answer why and considering I paid my balance on time each month I couldn't believe this. The woman on the phone was VERY rude when I tried to find out what had happened. I recently read up on the company and found that this happens quite often. I'll never shop here again. Pathetic and disgraceful!

Tip for consumers:
Don't us this card!!!

I was in the OakView store in Omaha tonight. Maria checked me out. She was brusque, gave me no greeting, no pleasantries. Not even a "Thank you." Like she was doing me a favor by checking me out. Well, there are other retailers for plus sized women, I will go where my business is appreciated instead of a burden. It's a shame LB, you used to do better than this.

I purchase three panties and get 3 free online, when it was shipped I also received an email stating one of the panties were cancelled, I checked the order once I received it true enough I only received five. I called Lane Bryant because I was charged the full amount and I wanted my free panty no more than right! When I called Lane Bryant spoke to a representative he came back and told me the panty that I ordered was not in that color however I could choose a different color and size so I wanted to same size but a different color but they were going to charge me for the cost of the panty the promotional cost. My point is I shouldn't have been charged Anythink because I was already charged it came through my bank that I was charged the full amount that was not taken off since they canceled that panty. I was not rude to the representative I told her no I was not getting ready to pay for another one I did not want to purchase. She just said okay fine thank you have a great day. Like she did not care. Like really?
