Fabletics is an innovative, high-quality athletic wear & accessories line co-founded by Kate Hudson that looks great & fits your budget.
















Fabletics enjoys a generally positive reputation for its high-quality activewear, particularly among plus-size customers, with many expressing satisfaction with the product's fit and style. However, significant concerns arise regarding customer service, particularly related to the return process and subscription management, which many find frustrating and convoluted. Issues such as delayed refunds, poor inventory management, and inadequate support from customer service representatives contribute to a negative shopping experience for some. Overall, while the product quality garners praise, the customer service approach and operational challenges indicate areas needing improvement for enhanced customer satisfaction.

Unfortunately my teenagers bras have same sized pads as my much larger bras. I'm a meeting while my pads shifted for the millionth time. Very disappointed on bras.
Love our leggings though.
I had a VIP Fabletics account and was happy to use it letting credits roll over. I noticed credits started disappearing (totaling $300). After several hours of calls, I was advised that credits only last a specific period of time. Fabletics agreed to reimburse me via vouchers which I agreed to, BUT the vouchers did not work. I tried contacting Fablectics and the voucher company who kept bouncing me around and never resolved my issue. Years passed and I got nowhere, eventually the issue was resolved, however, at this stage I had moved countries. I tried to make an order, however, was not able to use my credits to order to my address. I called again to find a workaround but was advised there was no alternate solution. I resorted to selling the vouchers at a discounted price, but found no buyers. By this time more than 4 years had passed. I tried all avenues, and had no choice to contact Fabletics again to request a refund - the agent hung up on me! I tried again and in May 2021 an agent finally agreed to issue a refund cheque. I was advised the cheque would arrive in 4-6weeks. 5 months and there was no word from Fabletics, I contacted them and was advised they hadn't sent the cheque as they needed to verify my address. I asked why no-one had contacted me - the reason, they don't have the ability to contact me! I left it a week and called again, only to find the last agent hadn't updated my shipping address. Now I am being told I need to wait another 4-6weeks. Avoid this company at all costs! I tried to spend $300 and now they won't give my money back.

This brand is an ABSOLUTE SCAM! They make you blindly sign up for their VIP program when you make a one-time purchase. This stupid program charges your card $50 a month! Their customer service is utter garbage and completely useless, especially when trying to cancel your unwanted membership. I wish this brand nothing but continued failure for scamming so many people.

So looking forward to the clothes I ordered. Then I waited and waited and it never came. Last I checked the shipping company it says package lost. Then I called fabletics and called and called and called again (6th call just ended in frustration) They would not issue a refund because their shady shipping company says the package was delivered. Customer service systems are archaic, it makes it impossible to get any service. I have contacted my credit card company to dispute this. Crossing fingers I will get my money back some day.

The worst experience I have ever had buying online from any brand.
I liked the shorts. I liked them so much that I recommended them to my family. Guess where my family lives... We all have the same address. So they did not respect my recommendations (they offer credit of $40 if you refer a friend), they canceled the orders of the three referrals I made, and then did not let me get the VIP discounts - the ones I was supposed to get as a VIP member. They thought I was scamming. I called and contacted them various times to clarify; other members of my family did as well. We each explained and gave a lot of information about us, enough to describe and clarify the case for them. They said they were going to escalate the issue and solve it. I never heard back from them with the solution.
Then there was this item with an additional discount for VIP members. The price for me changed when I added it to the cart. I asked the reason for it and GOT IGNORED on the Facebook chat. I called after that, and they told me they were going to solve it; they also told me again they would "escalate it"... I had the same result again; no response at all.
So, as a customer, they made me explain more than I should have; they ignored me, did not respect their offers, and made me feel weird because I was being treated as a scammer. Therefore, just the worst experience I have ever had buying online. I liked the shorts, but they are not the only ones offering good shorts. I am never buying anything from that brand. It is not worth it.
If they cannot help me with something that should not be that complicated, I don't want to risk having a different issue in the future after knowing the customer service they provide.
The best recommendation I could give any person reading this is: Stay Away from this brand. There are so many other good options.

I've been a "member" of Fabletics for a few years and never loved their structure of "purchase something within the first 5 days of the month or be charged a member fee." Now, I've just learned they recently changed this policy and purchasing within the first 5 days of the month no longer automatically exempts you from the member fee charge. Now, if you don't want to be charged this member fee for a "Member Credit," you have to click the "Skip this Month" button REGARDLESS of whether or not you purchased something already. What's more, I checked back in my emails from Fabletics and never received notice that this policy was changing. This is such an unbelievably exploitative business practice, knowing people won't realize the policy has changed and will be charged unnecessarily. That's not at all a way to run a business if you want your customers to remain loyal. It's a shame because I have liked most of the items I've received from Fabletics, but I don't know if I want to be a part of such a shady business.

I had to call in on 8 different occasions for a single order that never arrived. I've worked in customer service for over 3 years and I was appalled. I've never asked for a supervisor before but I did twice and they still didn't do anything about it. I was hung up on twice. Originally they refused to refund me but then I finally got a refund approved. When I called back about it (they were supposed to call me) the agent told me the only option was a reshipment. They didn't have any notes about previous calls and I had to argue again just to get an in store credit refund. Absolutely the worst customer service I've ever heard of. If you spend money there you are NOT getting it back.

Ordered 2 workout shirts using my member credits. The tracking was all over the place, and ultimately took just shy of a month to get delivered. Upon delivery the first thing that fell out of the package when I opened it was a warning that these products could contain lead. No doubt in my mind I'll be returning.

At this point it would have been cheaper just to have bought a new wardrobe at Lululemon. This company targets people on their first "VIP" purchase with great deals and you think you made a steal. WRONG. If you forget to "skip" your monthly membership you get charged $50 for a member credit. The website rarely ever had any sizes other than XS or XXL if that. ALSO, if you use a member credit they charge sales tax on that item. You also have to be very direct to get your membership cancelled because the sales people are very pushy for you to keep your membership. They only let you cancel the membership over the phone which is a red flag in itself. Do yourself a favor and never get involved with this company.

I love all the staff there, very helpful and knowledgeable about products. But this is my 3rd time shopping at this store and every time I go to pay, there's always trouble. The hand held devices don't work, they freeze, they can't take my card. This time all of the above happened and they had to go in the back and re add my credits and it just took a long time to leave the store, around 15+ minutes just to pay.

Answer: I did read the fine print, as stated, which you find out when you are about to place your order. Those few who LOVE Fab would have you believe, that we are dolts and can't figure out this "club" has you by the short hairs once you order 1 outfit... the hook is set. So if you wanna hassle with the $49.95 charge that you may or not remember to decline each month, see the charges on your card, only to find you have "store credit" instead of the charges removed... then by all means, place your order. As far as the 16% "like" rate at the top, THAT in itself should let you know, steer clear. It took me MANY attempts just to stop their emails from coming to me... finally!
Answer: Hi Heidi I really would cancel as soon as possible because if you don't you will be charged whether you buy anything or not. Do it now because if not before 5th, you will be charged. You have to do this every month it's really not worth the hassle, I would buy from the high street at least you know where you stand. Also, I am assuming Myka works for the company! There are very few positive comments about this company I would steer well clear.
Answer: I rang my bank and told them to stop any future payments leaving my account. When I finally got through to fabletics, I had the worst most arrogant a***hole in customer services so I wouldn't bother wasting your breath
Answer: When I cancelled, I made sure that I used up every dime of credit because I was pretty sure that this shady company would take the credit I was owed. Someone should start a class action suit against them. They just do whatever they want...
Answer: The best thing to do is to use your credit and buy something in the amount you were charged and then call to cancel your membership. You can try to get them to reverse the charges but chances are you won't get it back. Don't cancel until you use the money you already paid though!
Answer: All the good reviews on this site most likely come from employees, you could ask them.
Answer: Unfortunately this company is corrupt. You'll have to call relentlessly until they answer. I cancelled over the phone successfully. Leave a post with your negative experience getting a hold of someone to cancel.
Answer: I bombarded them on twitter and Facebook. They got back to me quick!
Answer: No you are not. Cancel it asap and then you won't get charged the monthly subscription charge. Best to call them and cancel it over the phone, and then send an email stating that you called and that they promised to cancel the account just as back up.
Answer: I think you should be okay! Canceling it is easy but I really doubt they'll send you a bill! I used it for a while and had no problems until this one but they were so beyond rude :( unless they have your billing information they can't just charge you!
