Very unprofessional phone representatives. There on-line verification system is horrible to track orders and returns. The representatives are not knowledgeable, professional, courteous, or let a lone go out of their way to show that they appreciate your business. It is unbelievable they are the top of the market, it seems like a monopoly because only such a poor standards can get away with this and still the only ones you have to go through! When another viable option comes available I am going to ditch this umbrella organization like a bad habit, been WAY to many issues with them! Even will call you back to hang up on you and have hung up on me countless times, CLASSLESS! Product is good, Personnel HORRIBLE!
The delivered swatshirt was way too big, not at all according to size. Non existant return policy, very hard to find on the site. Not recommended. Q

Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian.
Burned once again by Fanatics and their horribly slow delivery times. They release playoff apparel and by the time you get them the playoffs are over. This isnt the first time they have burned me on slow shipping, I should have known better. Never again. ***added after fantics.com response***Awesome response fanatics.com to my original post, only thing you failed to mention is I ordered on May 31 and here it is June 10 and I still don't have any of the shirts I ordered. At least own up to your false delivery delivery projections and quit blaming the consumer. Maybe I could pick the correct delivery method if i knew it was going to take half a month to get playoff shirts. Never again! I'm better off buying the bootleg shirts than waiting on your delivery. Playoffs are over, no shirts yet to be seen, already set up return and the shipment hasn't even arrived. Even the parade will be past by the time arrive... just horrible.
Hello Chris, thank you for your feedback! I am sorry that you didn't receive your items as you expected. Our number one concern Is customer satisfaction. Upon review of your order, the shipping method chosen was for standard ground shipping. The shipping timeframe can range for three to seven business days. At final stage of checkout, there are other options available for expedited shipping. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you, Sincerely, Julian.
I guess I got lucky with my order based on reading all of these reviews. I ordered a shirt and it came within a week. I had no problems with the shirt or anything
Hello Brandi, We are so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Julian
I paid extra for 3 business day shipping for an item on May 31 thinking that would ensure the item would be here before the game on June 7. Come to find out it will not arrive until the end of the day on June 9. The Fanatics checkout screen provides various shipping and handling options ("3-7 business days, 3 business days, 2 business days", etc.). When I called customer service, the rep said that instead of paying for 3-day shipping that I had paid for the item "to be shipped within 3 days". Why is that wording not on the checkout screen? If I would have known that the item would take over a week to arrive, I would have shopped somewhere else (or at least not paid extra for expedited shipping).
Hello Ian, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the item will not arrive as expected. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. The item order was a made on demand when purchase. Production of these items doesn't start until after the order is made. It can take up to 3 business days to produce. The shipping method thereafter chosen was 3 business days. However, the shipping carrier was unable to comply with the timeframe. I have refunded you back the original shipping charge back to the method of payment used to make this purchase. Please allow two to seven business days to reflect on your financial statement. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian.
They sent me the wrong jersey twice and they wouldn't exchange it. I had to buy a new ome and return the old one. I had to ship it back on my own dime. The customer service is horrible I had to speak with a manager just to get them to pay for shipping back a second time. What kind of online company doesnt do exchanges? They are a horrible company. Buyers BEWARE.
Hi Julian,
I don't care why you can't do exchanges. Obviously your system is not equipped for an online environment. Every other company I deal with online does exchanges. Fanatics is the worst just close up shop. Look at the negative reviews you get NO ONE likes your company.
Hello Greg, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about our return procedure. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, the first order was returned due to sizing issues. When the order was placed, it was shipped to an Unite States address. Packages being returned in the United States shipping can be waived if dropped off at any local post office. However, if it is being shipped back from outside of the United States, the return shipping cost is at the expense of the consumer. Our warehouse doesn't process exchanges because they want to make sure that our site shows the most accurate inventory of products available to ship out. Once the returns are received at our warehouse, they will update the site of how many of that item is currently now available. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian.
I ordered a Texas A&M fitted hat on the 27 of May so excited to have it for the NCAA tournament thinking it would surely be here by the next weekend. But to my shock I received an email fedX telling me I will not receive my hat till the 9th of June two weeks later. I know its probably the cheapest way to ship for them but It still would have been nice to have received it earlier than two weeks
Hello FAN. We truly apologize for the delivery delay of your order. We are working diligently with the appropriate departments to research this issue. However to ensure we provide a resolution within a timely manner please update your review including your order number. Thank you, Darren.
I had ordered a customized jersey and Jasmine and Consuela, via chat, provided such exceptional service, I cant thank them enough!
Hello K. B, thank you for reaching out and we are grateful for the positive feedback! Thanks, Darren.
My representative King was so helpful that GREAT doesnt do it justice. He was beyond helpful & so patient when taking my order & pulled up my previous order to help with sizing & getting my information. I have received emails from other sports companies ( NFL, Scheels) but Im going to be your customer for all my needs. Thanks again King for being such a super amazing person & helping me.

Well! I'm going to keep it short. I've called customer service numerous times with regards to the Personalized T shirt for my grandsons birthday. I was given incorrect shipping information and it never arrived on time. Which i had to purchase another shirt that you guys shipped overnight. FINE! So! It finally arrived yesterday a week after the fact. And i was still excited for him to get it. I opened it and the T shirt is deformed. It's supposed to be a youth small. It's wide enough to fit me and i wear a small woman. Also very short from length. So, when i called to day and with it i am hoping the last time i have to call your customer service. I s/w a sales rep and she was very nice. But once i was informed i have to wait 5 days for someone in that department to call me. I asked to speak with a supervisor and transferred to Millie. I must say she was short and rude and said that's how it is and said " and that's if i can return be returned. At that point i took a deep breath and said " this will be returned and made good of or refunded if not! And told her to have a nice day. Sadly to say this might be my last order with you guys. Will see how this all turns out. I read other reviews and i see i am not the only one who feels this way. Regards Amy Gomez
Hello Amelia, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the item didn't fit as expected. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, the item was customized and on those items they are considered to be final sales items. In order for us to except the item to be returned, a ticket has to be entered to our Order Management Department for reason of defect. They have a turnaround time of 3 to 5 business days to respond to your request. If you have not gotten a response back by that time, you can reference the ticket by number 1791787. Once again, I apologize for any frustration that this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
I ordered 2 custom mlb jerseys on the 15th of May, i received 1 jersey on the 23rd & here it is the 1st of June & i still dont have my other jersey that has BEEN paid for, they said it would ship out on the 30th i havent received & email & i called customer service & they keep saying its processing, i would like to cancel the order but cant because its a customize jersey, 2weeks is wayyy to long to be waiting for a jersey, i bought a custom nba jersey last year & had probs with shipping after i paid $13 for shipping, this site sucks!
Hello Deshawn, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about the delay of your order. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. The item that you purchased is a manufacture direct item. The item it is being shipped directly from their warehouse. The date of the 30th was the time provided that they would be able to have it shipped by. Our system usually detects delays within 3 to 4 business days to contact the manufacturer to see if there was a revised shipped date. I have enter a request to our Order Management Team to cancel your order if at all possible. Unfortunately, I can not give a guarantee depending on how far along in the process currently with the manufacturer. You can reference the request by Ticket # 1791823 if you have not gotten a response back in 3 to 4 business days. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
I ordered the wrong size and called customer service to get the problem solved. The customer service rep was friendly and was very helpful in being able to help me get the correct size ordered. Kudos to you guys and thank you!
Hello Jason B. Thank you so much for your feedback! We are so happy to hear that we were able to correct our error within a timely manner. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We truly value your business and we look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Darren
Paid extra for 3 day delivery on the 20th, it is now the 25th and it is now expected to arrive the 6th of June. Called customer service and was on hold for 15 minutes. Buy somewhere else
Hello Judah, I am very sorry about the shipping information. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review of your order, a coupon code for 20% was used to make this purchase. Unfortunately, only stand shipping was applied on the order. Per tracking, the package will arrive by 6/4/2018. Because the package is going to be past the 3-7 business days shipping timeframe, I have refunded you back the shipping that was charged to the method of payment used to make this purchase. Please allow 2-7 business days to reflect on your financial statement. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
I updated my review from 1 star to 3 stars since i finally received an email that my shirt is on its way. Funny thing is our team just got put out of the Stanley Cup last night so will have the shirt for next season.
I updated my rating since Chastity from Fanatics went out of her way to explain the issues with the warehouse and why our item was so delayed. It would be nice if Fanatics did this without my writing a bad review first but glad somebody acknowledged the issues I have had with this shirt. I will give Fanatics another chance next time i order something and hopefully will never encounter a 3-4 week delay again!
Hello Amber, thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback! We are so happy that we were able to help with the situation. If there is anything else we can do for you please let us know. We very much look forward to your future business! Sincerely, Julian
I ordered a NHL shirt for my husband's birthday more than 2 weeks ago and it stated shipping within 24 hours so expected it within the week. His team has played many times since then however i was not concerned as long as it was here before his birthday party (which is tonight). I called twice this week and even spoke to a supervisor who stated the shirt has been delayed and they cannot tell me why and also cannot tell me when it will arrive. So our team plays tonight, his party is tonight, and it still is not even showing as shipped yet. They wouldn't even give me a discount on the shirt for my troubles. Horrible customer service. I will never order from them again! Wasted too much of my time calling them to find out absolutely no information.
They can't even call anybody to find out where the shirt is and why it's not being delivered. Horrible!
Thank you for your efforts Eddy! You were able to provide great customer service and remain patient and interactive throughout the process. You are appreciated.
Hello Scott, thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback! We are so happy that we met your expectations. If there is anything else we can do for you please let us know. We very much look forward to your future business! Sincerely, Julian
Was promised free shipping on our order and when we clicked on the free shipping button there was a popup which read that the free shipping had been applied. However we were still charged $6.00 for shipping and could not get the free shipping, as promised. This happened before, so how is this free shipping when the card was charged for shipping anyway?

We received a gift from Fanatics. I called to return it--took 3 separate calls to finally get them to process the return. They had us fill out a form to receive store credit. They say they offer 365 returns--once the items were finally sent back we got an email saying they were not returnable and the items have been donated to charity. Then, after another call, they accepted the return but would not process the gift return so they credited back the original purchaser. Their service was terrible, their return process was terrible. I'll never buy from them and you shouldn't either!
Hello S S, thank you for your feedback! We are so sorry to hear about this experience and would love to work with you to get this resolved.

I thought the shirt would be better then advertise looks like 1st grader did the printing SMH never will order from them AGAIN!
Hello David S, we are terribly sorry to hear about your less than satisfactory experience with Fanatics. We would love a chance to make this right. If you will email [email protected] with your order number and name, we will be happy to make this right. We apologize again for the inconvenience and hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely, Darren
I purchased two shirts, one was too small, so I returned it. The other had my college logo pressed on as opposed to a stitched on graphic. The shirt that was too small was mailed back because they have no exchange policy. I purchased the very same shirt for an event (at a $15 increase) and an additional $24 for express shipping (due to be delivered TODAY). I check the tracking and discovered that it JUST SHIPPED OUT TODAY and they are telling me that I should receive the package on Monday (three days from now). Never Again $#*!es!
Hello Kevin, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the order was delayed. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, you contacted us regarding the shirt being too small so our advocate assisted with reordering the item in a larger size. Due to the difference in the pricing, they refunded you the difference to the method of payment used to make this purchase. Per our site, it is stated that the logo would be heat sealed graphics on the shirt. Because the package was late leaving our warehouse, the overnight shipping was refunded to you as well. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian.
I bought a Fanatics branded sweatshirt at an arena and the embroidery started coming apart after one wash. I contacted their support and was told that they will not stand behind their product unless it was purchased on fanatics.com. Where else am I supposed to go?
Hello Nate, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that you received a defective product. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Please contact [email protected] the attach receipt of the purchase. Once again, I apologize for the frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Answer: I have no experience ordering from Australia so I'm afraid I will be of no help. I do agree that the holiday will add a little extra time but I don't believe it's as bad as everyone is saying. I don't know why I had such a good experience with them when it sounds like everyone else is angry with them. I'm curious to see how it goes for you.
Answer: Good luck. I just kept getting stupid answers until I filed a BBB complaint. Then I got instant satisfaction.
Answer: Hello Timo, Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your business! Mike, Shannon, and Brad -- We would love to have an opportunity to work with you each regarding your less-than stellar experiences. Please provide your order numbers so that we may research and work on resolving your poor experiences! We value each of you and hope you will give us an opportunity to make this right.
Answer: No kidding. These fools are liars and thieves. They literally have fulltime dedicated employees who monitor sites like SiteJabber to provide responses to all the well deserved, nasty Fanatics reviews. It is entirely likely that any and all positive reviews touting their customer service are internally generated by their own employees. Write letters to your licensing body whether it be NFL or MLB and let them know about Fanatics and their FRAUDULENT and DECEPTIVE business practices. Fanatics should be glossed as Fraudnatics. BUYER BEWARE!
Answer: Hello, Thank you for reaching out to us. When an item is found to be out of stock the money is refunded back to the original form of payment. In addition, we issue a store credit on top of this for the inconvenience.
Answer: I would not worry to much about the negative feedback. You should get your items delivered to you with no problem. It might take a little time to be delivered but I had no problems with fanatics.
Answer: Please provide us with the contact information we can best reach you with so that we can pass this along. Julia.
Answer: Thank you for your correspondence. I am very sorry that you had this issue with the item. If you could please private message me your order number so I can take a further look?
Answer: Hello, thank you for reaching out. Upon reviewing your orders should arrive no later than December 13,2017.
Answer: Thank you for reaching out Michael. Refunds can take 2-7 business days for the refund to reflect back on the form of payment that was used at checkout. Thanks, Cayla
