I was told that my package was undeliverable because I had given them the wrong address however they had the right address and when I called them they gave me the ran around and when I did a chat, they kept asking me the same questions over and over and over. So now I don't have my package and they took my money.

I like the clothes. It's not the company, it's the piss poor Management team they have. You can tell when someone isn't use to something because they act high and mighty. The managers carry themselves as if they are in Gucci with their DD's dispositions and attitudes. They couldn't work for me. Ratchet and ghetto to the 125th power. Lenox Square is the worst. It's on a perfect fit if you're in to drama, gossip, sabotage, being an abomination, confused and disoriented or suffering from personality disorders.

Human Resources
April 15, 2024

You cant get HR as an employee here so you have no rights and have to take what the store manager does or leave. Store manger at Mall of GA is condescending and hostile. Not a good environment to work. They need to do better fo employees.

Dirty and used
March 6, 2024

I recently received a Jean jacket that was dirty and appeared to have been used. Receiving a used and dirty jacket from Forever 21 was extremely disappointing.I expected better quality control. This experience has tarnished my trust in the brand's products and customer service.

Awful all around
January 24, 2024

Do not purchase with your item shipping to you/store and expect an honest ship date. I received an email saying my order shipped to store Jan 11.estimated delivery Jan 17th. I don't get any updates by Jan 24th so I contact support and they say it didn't even ship until Jan 16th. Why would a company send a false ship date? I've never encountered this from a business. Lying to customers is not a good look and when confronted with it having support act like it's your problem isn't either.

Does not refund money!
December 28, 2023

This is the second time I've mailed back my return but this time I sent back over $200 worth of items and they keep telling me to wait and I've called 3 times and it's been over a month and they refuse to refund me saying I have to wait 2-3 more days or a week. They are frauds that keep your money. DO NOT TRUST THEM. I will be shopping elsewhere.

**Shipping Scams**
December 27, 2023

I purchased some items on black Friday for some of my daughters Christmas presents. It was a total of 4 items. When I checked my order the next day, it was sitting in my shopping cart. Thought that was weird and resubmitted my order. When I received my order, only 3 items shipped. Checked my email and 1 item was canceled for being out of stock. Checked my Amazon Pay and my bank statement, the full amount was withdrawn. I also saw on Amazon Pay that this charge was placed 3 times and canceled and on the 4th attempt went through. The first time I talked to CS, they apologized and said that the refund could take up to 3 weeks. The second time I chatted with CS, they apologized and said that the refund is in process. The third time I chatted with CS, they told me to check with my bank about the charge and that they only charged for the 3 items. The original charge was $82.24 and they swear up and down that they only charged me $55.20. Customer service would not give me a fax or email so I can show them my proof of the over charge. This is a lot of hassle to go through for $27. But the point is that they initially charged for an item they knew they didn't have and now are refusing to reimburse for their error. $27,1 month of waiting, roughly about 2 hours of phone and chat time, a lot of gas lighting. I am uploading my statement and the invoice that CS emailed me right after our chat today.

Scam Company
December 26, 2023

This company sells damaged cheap clothes and refuses to take returns if you have already worn it. Well people buy clothes so they can wear them but if they start to fall apart on the first day how are we to know it was cheaply made. Sweaters should not start falling apart that easy! I do not recommend this cheap $#*! company or their clothes! A very cheap product guaranteed to fall apart within 5 mins of wearing it. Don't waste your money on this company! Fraud! Scam!

They pretend delivery, but their carrier is "Delivery It" as result nothing is delivered. Never buy anything online from them.

Not worth the trouble
December 5, 2023

I recently returned an item that was not sized correctly. I have waited for well over a month for my refund. I tried calling today to speak with customer service and I am still waiting for someone to pick up and the time is 1:06:36 I have waited. This is utterly frustrating. This will be the last time I make a purchase with this company. To have someone intentionally wait this long to speak with someone and get ignored shows bad business ethics.

Express shipping
November 28, 2023

I paid 14.95 express shipping fee on November 21. Today is November 28. I know the holiday was November 23. But to pay for express delivery and your package is not delivered until five or six days later. It a big rip off.Better explanation should be given to be your purchase express fee. Disappointed customer

Took my daughter in to buy clothes for her birthday. We were told the fitting rooms were closed and she couldn't try on anything. It was still 2 hours before the store closes. No worries tho we went to another store and bought 3 shirts, 2 pairs of jeans and some accessories for her. Will never set foot in that store again.

It's been a over a month and I still didn't receive my package when order placed online. By the 3rd call, I asked for a refund but their staff said I have to wait until 10 days for a resolution. Ten days later, they said "no resolution was made. You have to wait another 10 days to see if we can authorize a refund." Wow, no package means give me my refund! At least that's what defines good customer service. Apparently Forever 21 doesn't not act upon that!

Nothing but awful
September 9, 2023

Went into forever 21 at Kingsway mall to purchase a reusable bag. I found a cloth one which had no price listed, went to till to pay and (my own fault) purchased for $15. Tired and not thinking I decided to return it. They oy offer in store credit or exchange, no refunds. Gave the gift card to a friend and I will never step foot in this or and Forever 21 store again.

Disappointed with Forever 21's Shirts and Exchange Policy

Review: I recently purchased a few shirts from Forever 21, and unfortunately, my experience has been quite disappointing. After the first wash, the shirts shrunk significantly, rendering them unwearable. When I approached the store to exchange them, I was met with a frustrating response.

Despite the clear issue with the product, Forever 21 refused to provide an exchange or any form of resolution. The lack of customer support and willingness to stand behind their products is disheartening. As a loyal customer, I expected better from a popular clothing brand like Forever 21.

The shrinking shirts coupled with the store's uncooperative exchange policy have left me with no choice but to share my negative experience. It's essential for customers to be aware of these shortcomings before considering making a purchase from Forever 21.

I went into the Lenox Square location and there was a young lady there who was new to me because I live near and go there all the time. When I went to the register to pay for my merch she greeted me with a brilliant smile and clear happiness on her face. We bonded over the style of jeans I was purchasing and I discovered she was a flower child like myself She told me about some jeans that she had purchased and thought I would love and asked if I would like to see them. After she rung me up she checked to ensure her coworkers were in the clear and asked me to wait a minute because there were no more left on the Sales floor but she remembered seeing a bunch in back stock. As she approached me with the jeans in her hand out of nowhere a rude man who I determined was her manager interrupted our conversation by saying she was hard headed and does not listen. If it wasn't for the fact that this young lady was so kind and customer service driven I would have put them down and walked away. I absolutely loved the jeans just ad she thought and got back in the line to purchase. As I was leaving I let her know that I bought the Jean's and thanked her because I truly liked them, I was amazed at not only how she had the eye for my taste which is vastly different from what people wear today but I was most impressed by her friendly and welcoming attitude and in how she exceeded my expectations and went above her basic duties to assist me. I plan on writing to headquarters or the owner because the fact that he could clearly see she was helping a customer I am irate at the fact that he felt the need to chastise her and berate her in my presence. It was uncalled for and totally unprofessional. I'm big on customer service and am not impressed these days with the lack thereof. I'll definitely shop there and look for her again, just as I plan on contacting corporate to tell them that my shopping experience was overshadowed by a rude and disrespectful Manager.
