Sucks Big Time
March 22, 2017

If you live in Canada, do not and I mean DO NO order anything from the States that uses Borderfree. I usually ship from the States to TSB Shipping in Point Roberts near the Canadian Border. We go down a few times a month to pick up our orders. The orders are usually there in 2 to 3 days.

I ordered a bunch of clothes from Macys for my wife's birthday and was automatically forwarded to the Border free web site.

If the orders I pick up in the USA are under $250.00, the Canadian border guards just waves you through. No Duty and no Taxes.

I ordered about $200.00 worth if items from Macys. It took over 3 weeks to be delivered and I was charged and extra $130.00 for duty and taxes.

All this because Macy's won't accept a Canadian Visa card. I buy tons of stuff out of the USA and this is the only place so far that does this.

Plus the stuff didn't show up in time for my wife's birthday!

I cancelled my Macys and BorderRipoff accounts.

At the stores it depends on departments and which stores. I have had some great customer service and then I have been ignored and they lost a sale. I do like the selection they have in there stores. I have never shopped on line.

Macy's experience
June 5, 2023

Very disappointed! Since a severe accident in and out of hospital for 2 years flat lined and coma I'm just learning to walk again I was canceled because I didn't use my card. No thought of a customer with no late payment I always paid more but their ethics are none I feel they have no respect for my health are well standing. I'm still unable to drive 2 hours to a store close to me and I do not do online. I'm a hands on person. But they only care of money not a persons life. I'm struggling but I'll get there and I will never reapply I already know what their thought is on their customer. I'll use any of my other multiple cards but. Very disappointed and discouraged of sending anyone to their stores again. And sadly I used to make special trips just to shop there. Discouraging, disappointing and disrespected!

Do not purchase an extended warranty for furniture. Better yet google the brand of furniture they are selling and purchase the furniture elsewhere. They will sell you an extended warranty but when the time comes to use it they do not stand by it!

There are no customer service agents available to take a return and the links on the computer do not work for a return. It is impossible to do a return. Went on the Facebook and got through to them. They fixed it all.

Canceled the order and do not return the money
December 6, 2022

Do not shop on macys.com. They canceled four of my orders immediately after placing them, deducted money for each order from my card and have not refunded money from my card for almost a month.
They don't provide support by email, they say call! And I'm deaf!
Be careful!

When you purchase furniture from Macy's they promote worry no more warranty
This warranty is a total waste of money most claims are denied and they are only given appointments for 8 AM which doesn't make sense. They only do one client and then go home? Scam by Macys and worry no more. Do not waste your money!

I love my macys card and the deals that they have but their customer service is terrible. I repeated 3 times what I wanted and the lady Alexis still didn't understand me. When I requested a supervisor she placed me on hold then disconnected the call. I called back and the guy I spoke to didn't understand what I wanted either. I had a credit on my account and requested a check. How hard is that?

Women Shoes
January 28, 2024

The Women's Shoes department at Cross County shopping mall has no heat. The employees are wearing their jackets and winter accessories while they are on the selling floor. I overheard the employees complaining that managers are not addressing their concerns. This has been happening since Thursday January 25th. Today is Sunday January 28th and it is still cold in the department.
Management needs to address this immediately to protect their employees.

Macy's website for my Macy's American Express credit card is really awful!
Some thief was able to obtain my password and order clothes online, however Macy's did call me to check on it, since the address was wrong, and they did not let the order go through. There is no place on their website to " sign in ", and after I found the correct website, I couldn't find what my balance was or when the payment was due. The screen kept freezing too, and it wasn't my computer... The quality of their clothing has improved but there are still some flimsy cheap garments on their websites, and I rely on the reviews from other customers to choose

I just received a black jeans jacket I ordered from Macy's.com. The picture was so cute, black jacket, SILVER buttons, one of the main reasons I ordered it. When it arrived it had black buttons, no silver. I was so disappointed!

I was buying a prom dress this year and fell in love with one in the store, but unfortunately it had any picks on it and was dirty at the bottom. My course of action was to order it online, but when the dress came in it was very dirty at the bottom also and had a few stains and picks. This service was unacceptable. Dresses should not be sold when they are not in good condition. I then returned the address and ordered another hoping it would be fine. It was worse. More stains and picks than the previous two that could not be hidden by anything including alterations. This costumer service was unacceptable and others will be hearing of the quality that Macy's lacks. There is nothing Magical about Macy's clothing.

A scam, no return calls, no product, take my money and I receive nothing. A total scam. The attorney general needs to investigate them for fraud. They are a scam and scum bags. They burnt me bad. I will see them burn in hell... they need to be shut down and prosecuted for fraud. They are the worst of the worst. Pure scum.

Macy's has awesome customer service. I bought a desk through Macy's online site. I got the desk and it was damaged. I called Macy's and the customer service representative was awesome. She refunded my Macy's credit card. And sent me two emails. One to tell me the price of the desk was refunded to the card. And another email to tell me that I could discard the damaged desk and there was no reason to return it. Now I can re-order the desk when I get off work today. The damage to the desk was not macy's fault, it happened during the shipping process. The whole Macy's return process and re-ordering process is professional, convenient and pleasant.

I ordered a pair of pants and a shirt. They doubled my order but did not provide me with a recipe or an update in my order history. They charged me twice, and told me i could not get refunded until my order was delivered, and then I had to return. I am currently waiting on hold to speak to a supervisor. I have been on hold for an hour and a half. The phone disconnected once and I had to start over. They do this because they want you to give up so they can keep your money they stole. I will never do business with Macys again in my life.

Big scam
July 12, 2016

I participated in Thred Up because the promotion came to me thru Macy's and this gave me some sort of assurance in what they were offering. Now I feel differently and think this is a scam where only Thred Up is the winner. Macy's should be more careful in participating with companies of this caliber and specially offering the business to its clients.

Wanted to spend money
September 13, 2020

Macy's, how stupid are you? I wanted to use a $250.00 gift card and then add another $80.00 to make a purchase. We were told the I had to have double on the gift card in order to use it. No sale! COVID 19 must be good to you and you don't need sales. Congrats!

Rude
March 13, 2023

I recently visited Macys at the Walden Galleria Mall in Cheektowaga NY. There were some good sales but customer service and friendliness was very lacking. I needed to checkout and the store was not busy but I had to go around the store asking to be checked out and the workers were very rude and would not help me. After asking the 6th person to please check me out it was a success but the worker acted like it was an inconvenience to drag her away from the group of Macy's workers gathered together talking. Never in my life have I encountered such terrible service.
