Customer service
November 28, 2022

I got a gift card and used it online as well as using my own funds. All items needed to be returned. I packed them both up, sent them both on the same day. A week later I get confirmation they received one box another week later they received the other. One was bought by my cc the other gift card. This is why nobody can compete with Amazon! It took five phone calls with 30 minute wait times just to tell me I now have to wait another ten days to receive my refund although they already received my returns! Therefore if I have to wait then reorder correct size I'm looking at way past the holiday for my items. What's the point? If I have to wait a MONTH from start to finish, that's unacceptable. I will no longer get Macy gift cards or buy anything online as this has been a nightmare and I receive no help from customer service. Lesson learned, stick with Amazon

Macy's provides a great shopping experience. It also provides above average retail items as its stock. However. Be prepared to dig deep into the wallet. For that reason I only shop the sales at the end of the season because they heavily discount items that remain on the racks at the end of summer and winter. That's when you can get your best deals.

I placed my first on line order with Macy's in December 2016. The items purchased were gorgeous! My cousin loved everything! Price break offered if order over $100 S&H free! Was a special holiday promotion. The gifts arrived in few days! Exceptional quality of products available. I would definately recommend doing business with Macy's again! It was worth it to not have to deal with crowds of people during the holiday rush!

No reshipment, No store credit
October 17, 2023

I am so outraged at Macys customer care, I paid for two kids sheet sets, I received them, only to find on package without the pillowcase and fitted sheet, I've put in a claim twice and both not approved, I don't get it, it's not fair, Macys customer service really sucks! The do not care just sitting on the other side of the screen rejecting customers requests, calling them a liar, and a thief, what kinda store does this. Second time this has happen to me. Poor customer service…

Pretty good!
December 4, 2017

I like Macy's.com! I get super deals on their website. Plus as a Macy's card holder I get sent coupons and ge double savings. I probably use them the most. Free shipping at over $50.00 and Returns are pretty easy. Sometimes packages take too long to get to me, but that is just sometimes. Most of the time packing is well done and On occasion it has been poor. When I have needed customer service it has been excellent.

I paid the extra $10 to make shipping faster. One hour after I ordered the Christmas gift I noticed it was shipping on 12/26. I called to cancel and they said it is "too late" because it has been processed. What?!?! It's processed and going to sit until 12/26 before someone physically grabs the package and I CANNOT cancel. Buyer beware! Terrible customer service. I ordered same product from Amazon for $40 less and being delivered on 12/24. This is how companies go out of business!

They had a whole bunch of specials advertised, and then lo and behold! The "add to cart" button doesn't even work for those items once they go on sale! Nice scam to get people to your website, though!

Furniture
October 26, 2023

Online Macys site states available
Placed order, now over 90 day back order
Then they want me to give them my credit card number every 25 days while I wait.
Do not order from them, when I called customer service, I had a difficult time understanding the operators located in the Philippines, I was transferred 4 times still not one can answer a question.
Macys online site is misleading and a waste of time. Chair is not made and they cannot say when it will be? What a waste of time.

If I could give this company one star I would. They are awful with customer service, extremely rude, and unhelpful. Although, I cannot generalize because there are so many Macy's branches across the country I can definitely say that with my experience at the stores in Miami and their online service I will absolutely never shop there again. For anything.

Hate Macy's
June 16, 2015

They need to hire more help. The people there are working fast and furiously and can't keep up. There is really no such thing as service. It's all they can do to clean out the dressing rooms and ring people up. I hate the whole coupon thing. The lines are too long with the time it takes to try to manipulate the sale to maximize the coupon purchase. Just lower the prices. It's a scam anyway. Half the time you can't find what you are looking for even if the sales person says it's in the system. It's likely on one of they many many hanging racks that are ever present. I just don't shop there any more. I have a card but never use it.

Delivery
July 22, 2022

This review is about Macy's delivery service. After waiting more than 2 months for our furniture, it was finally ready, and I scheduled a delivery date on their website. The date came, but nothing was delivered. I contacted their customer service, and a lady politely said the website does not work in our region, and we need to schedule delivery by phone. Why do you have a website running if it is useless and doesn't do anything? I had made arrangements to stay home and receive the delivery, and was very excited. But it turned out to be a huge disappointment.

I shop $#*!s sporting goods but Macy's has some good deals on Fitness clothes and lounge wear. I bought several items here at Macy's online they turned out to be great deals. The shipping was pronto fast too. Would recommend Macy's online.

Don't buy anything from these criminals. They use quasi-legal terms to intimidate customers and will use bullying tactics involving credit agencies to mess up your credit if you don't pay the $3500 "fine" they charge for a bad review.

Seriously, avoid this site like the plague.

Most pathetic service. They don't pick calls, have transactions about which no one can provide details And they would keep adding interest and finally will give to third party to collect with no way of right to Information. I would never be their loyal customer again!

Love a good deal especially if the quality is good but Macy's pricing practices are downright maddening. I've bought something only to find it 50% off the next week! It is not at all convenient to return things and returns drive everyone's costs up, including prices consumers have to pay. I respect retailers who deliver quality at a fair price to themselves AND the customer.

Seriously I don't know how they stay in business with the terrific sales they have. I buy almost all my jeans from Macy's because I can be assured they will fit and they come quickly and are wrapped nicely and come on hangers. Macy's has never stopped being a classy store like many have. I love their advertisements and the coupons they send and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about them. They made a mistake, corrected it and gave me an extra $50 credit. I remember shopping there as a child and at 56 I still do. They are fabulous! There is nothing you cannot buy from Macy's!

Customer Service

I think that Macy's is a top notch store. I would give them a 10. I have made several designer handbags purchases and if I see one go on sale, after I have already made my purchase, they will go back and adjust the price. They are even pleasant about it. Wow, good customer service! Not use to seeing that now days.

Plastic alone no good.
August 24, 2015

Denver... was at a well known area. It is very busy area so you don't want to carry a purse. All day I used only my card with PIN. Went to Macy's to buy a $30 shirt. Big hassle, because no pic ID on me. If it was more than a $30 t-shirt, I could understand. Haven't been back.

I ended up ordering a ton from Macy's, but lord knows they fought me the entire way. Their credit card seemed like it had some good features. I know I've filled out the necessary information for it. To this day, I don't know why I don't have one. I don't even know if I'm registered as a client. I'll go back to the site to see if things improved. But life's too short to order from them any more.
