I ORDERED STUFF FOR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY
I PAID 29.95 FOR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY
BUT NONE OF MY ITEMS SHIPPED
WHEN I CONTACTED THEM THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP ME AND TO ORDER MORE STUFF
I NOR MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS WILL EVER USE FANATICS AGAIN
THEY ARE TERRIBLE AND THEY LET ME AND MY FAMILY DOWN BIG TIME
SO IF YOU WANT A COMPANY THAT CARES ABOUT CUSTOMER SERVICE
DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT USE FANATICS
IF I WOULD HAVE CHECKED REVEIWS BEFORE ORDERING I WOULD HAVE FOUND THIS OUT
DO NOT USE FANATICS
I read a lot of bad comments here but I ordered a personalized Maple Leafs long sleeve T-shirt anyways and I'm glad I did.
In just 10 days after I ordered the shirt had arrived. The personalization was correct and I'm happy with my purchase.
I just think that's it's a little expensive for what it is.
But I would recommend this website and I hope that more happy customers comment here to encourage the ones that are afraid of shopping online.
Cheers!

I ordered a jersey on the 24th, I was supposed to receive within a week. On Saturday the 28th I received a mail telling me that they do not have any news from their supplier and that I have the right to cancel my order.
I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CANCEL SINCE MONDAY AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME THAT THEY CANT CANCEL THAT MY STATUS ORDER HAS CHANGED WHICH IS A LIE (STILL IN NEW, NOTHING HAS CHANGED SINCE I ORDERED)
I have been scammed of 99$ and will probably never receive my jersey which was supposed to be a gift.
In the end I just want a simple information: contact your supplier, tell me when ill have my jersey OR CANCEL THE ORDER SINCE ITS WAY PASSED THE DELAY.

Received a tmobile credit only to find the prices and shipping were SKY HIGH! I looked on eBay after my purchase, and would have saved a couple bucks buying on ebay! Shame on you fanatics! Won't ever do businesses with your company again.
Hello Russ. We are sorry that you are not satisfied with your recent purchase. We change charges on our site from time to time for various reasons. For example, sometimes it is because the cost to us increases. We apologize sincerely for any inconvenience this causes. Thanks, Cayla J.
I ordered a Jersey for my husband for Christmas that had to cross the border into Canada. The shipping provider in Canada royally messed up (CanPar is the worst) and he never received his Christmas present. Fortunatly for my blood pressure the customer service team at Fanatics were fantastic. They shipped me a new one even before the original was returned back to them! They even gave me a $20 discount off my original shipping and didn't charge me anything extra for the second shipping!
The shipping fiasco wasn't their fault but they cared about me as a customer enough to make up for another company's mistakes. In my books that is going above and beyond and I recommend them to everyone. Just keep a sharp eye on CanPar when your parcel reaches Canada...
Only thing I would change? Atop using CanPar in Canada!
Hello Leah. Thank you so much for your feedback! 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 truly value your business and we look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Cayla J.
I also received the T-Mobile coupon but it appears that Fanatics simply raised all of the prices and raised the shipping prices along with removing Shoprunner support. So that the $20 coupon turned into about $2 actual savings. Nice try with promoting your site but not worth the terrible deal.
Hello Brian. We would like to offer our sincerest apologies for your recent experience while shopping with us. Unfortunately, we do alter our payment, pricing and shipping options for various reasons. We do appreciate your feedback and if we can do anything to help further please do not hesitate to reach back out Thanks, Cayla J.
I received a credit from T-Mobile Tuesday for fanatics. I went to the website and they raised the prices and blocked everything under $17.99. The site says they have merchandise under that price but Oops sorry that page doesn't work. WHAT A SCAM! I have received many gifts from T-Mobile and I have not seen anything like this. What a lousy way to treat your prospective customers. If you didn't want to do the promotion you shouldn't have done it but why alienate future customers and make your company look like a scammer. OH WAIT YOU ARE SCAMMERS YOU SUCK this is from someone who has free money to spend on your site but you are too stupid to realize that.
Hello Tamara. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you and we understand how frustrating this can be. Unfortunately, if an item is ineligible, the code will not apply to it. We're very sorry that we are unable to change that. We hope that you will continue to search for an item that you would like to purchase. Please don't hesitate to reach out for any assistance. Sincerely, Cayla J.
Why isn't the order being processed or shipped. I ordered 3 days from now and still is staying new in status. What's the problem and how long can it take? I'd be thankful if you help me.
Hello Qendrim. We apologize for the shipping delay of your order. Upon review of the order, we show the item is currently out of stock. At this time, the cancellation of the item has been processed, please give 2-7 business days for the refund to reflect. We truly apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. Thank you, Cayla J.
They refuse to refund my money I spend on a women's shirt for my wife. The shirt was returned because their sizing chart was wrong. USPS confirms they received the shirt. Yet, they are horrible at communicating and won't refund me. I've spent $800 with this company in the last few months and this is how I get treated. I'll boycott until I get what is rightfully mine.
Hello Kris, thank you so much for reaching out to us about this issue. We do apologize that you have not received your refund. We have looked into your order and we have issued a refund for this item. We ask that you please allow 2-7 business days for the refund to process. Please let us know if there is anything we can further assist you with. Sincerely, Whitney P.
My recent order was a complete mess up and customer service wasn't helpful at all. Order placed on 1/11/17 and 2 day shipping was paid so my friend could get it the same week. When I got the confirmation, I noticed the ship to address was incorrect. It had it shipped to me instead of my friend. I called customer service the same day and I was placed on hold multiple times and long periods of time. The representative was very nice and confirmed that he was able to reach the warehouse and everything is fixed and ok. Next day, I get a FedEx tracking that my package has been received and it's going to be shipped to me in two weeks. I logged online to my account and it clearly says it's going to my friend and I called the company and the lady was just not helpful. Her response is, I'll refund you the two days shipping cost but once FedEx picks it up, it's out of our hands. She confirmed in her system that the ship to address is to my friend and she doesn't know why FedEx would have my address. Basically, it's now your problem. I had to wait for the item to arrive to my house and then resend it on my own time to my friend. To top this off, the company didn't even include the note that was suppose to be with the order. All around a complete terrible experience with Fanatics. I would not recommend ordering from them and I won't be ordering from them in the further. Very disappointed in the customer service and thanks for making this all my problem when I wasn't the one that screwed up.
Hello Helen, thank you for providing us with valuable feedback in regards to your most recent order.

I ordered a shirt that was too small. I have always order that size with no problem. Your sizing chart needs to be readjusted. When returning the item I asked for a refund of my shipping because of your poor sizing. I was also disappointed in the quality of the shirt for the price. I want my $4.99 Shipping charge returned to me.
Hello Barbara. We are truly sorry to hear that you were not completely satisfied with your purchase. We would like to make this right and have refunded you the refund for the shipping cost. Please allow 2-7 business days for the refund to reflect back on the form of payment that was used at checkout. Sincerely, Cayla J.
I've been a customer with Fanatics for about a year or so. Yesterday, I received a package. I ordered two sets of the Topps binder with two sets ofTexas Rangers Topps cards. When I opened the package, it only had the binders, not the cards. So, I called up Fanatics and spoke to a guy named Patrick who gave me $20 back in store credit! Great service per usual. They treat their customers well. It's definitely my go-to for sports merchandise. I also like the "fancash" system and their frequent sales and discounts.
Hello Henry, We always enjoy hearing from customers regarding those great experiences. Thank you for your business! Sincerely, Cayla J.
As a customer for over 7 years, I've always enjoyed shopping on this site-until the last year. For some reason, the last three times i've used them it's been awful. From getting the wrong items, to returning items, and sending emails that have been ignored. I don't know if they were sold to someone else in the last year-but things have changed and i will not shop local for all my needs.
Hi Jeff, we do appreciate you letting us know about you past three experiences with us. We will be more than happy to make things right with you. We do see that you provided us with an order number, we ask that you please let us know what this issue is so that we may resolve this matter for you. We look forward to your response. Thanks, Whitney P.
I received my sweatshirt yesterday and it STINKS! I received it at my work and put it in the back seat of my truck until I got home... my truck STINKS now! I put it in the dryer with a scented dryer sheet... my dryer STINKS now! My laundry room STINKS now! I can not get rid of the smell! VINEGAR!
Hello Mike, we are sorry that the item was received in such a manner. We will be more than happy to process a replacement item if you would like. We ask that you please send us a private message with your response. We look forward to hearing from you and correcting the issue. Sincerely, Whitney P.
I received promptly item I ordered in great condition. My issue is customer service. My item was a gift, which ended up being a duplicate so I wanted to return it. Fanatics promotes "Easy Returns. Free Shipping."... not so much. Very misleading. Fanatics automatically charges $5.50 for me to return a shirt while USPS would charge $3.78. I contacted Fanatics via their email system and chirp... chirp... Needless to say, I won't shop there again. Lesson learned. A dispute doesn't need resolved here as I gave shirt to another person; just giving a heads up on their return shipping costs.
Hi Mel, we do understand your frustration with this issue and we are more than happy to assist you. We have looked into your order and we have waived the return fee on the order number provided. We do apologize for the way this issue has been handled and hope we can make things right. Please let us know if there is anything we can further assist you with. Sincerely, Whitney P.
I ordered a black IU sweatshirt in a large size for a gift. It arrived and we gave it to the person but it was too small even though he normally wears a large. I returned it in a padded envelope and ordered an XL for a replacement. Then I got an email stating that it was a customized shirt and it was not returnable and supposedly it was damaged even though it was never worn. They told me they gave it to charity per their return policy. On my order there was no mention of customizing and without any proof I find it hard to believe it was damaged. Obviously many others have had this problem, I advise all to order from a source who will stand by there orders.
Hello Lynn, thank you so much for reaching out to us and informing us of this issue. We are extremely sorry that the item was too small and that the refund was not processed back to you. We have looked into your order and we have issued a full refund for this order. We ask that you please allow 2-10 business days for the refund to process. Please let us know if there is anything we can further assist you with. Thanks, Whitney P.
I ordered 3 CU t-shirts for Christmas - they came quickly and looked really nice UNTIL my husband wore his once and washed it. The lettering is now unrecognizable - the white lettering on the black t-shirt is flaking off. This is the worst product I have ever purchased. I can't return because it has been worn but I will never buy from them again. Total waste of money.
Hi Erin, thank you so much for reaching out to us. We are terribly sorry for the way the item is after being washed. We have looked into your order and we have waived the return fee for the order. Also, we ask that you please let us know if you would like to have the order replaced or refunded. We look forward to your response. Thanks, Whitney P.
Like other customers on this website, I have been scammed out of a refund for an ill-fitting garment. I returned a non-customized item to Fanatics because it was too small. It was a gift for a boy that I have mentored for years, and he asked for it for Christmas, and he doesn't ask for much. He tried it on, noticed it was too small, and I folded it up (with the original sticker/tag still intact) and boxed it up. I paid for the return shipping myself and just got notification that they would not refund my money because there was either damage or it was a customized order. Neither of these are true. Now, this child has no gift, and I'm out the $70+ that this order has cost me and I can't afford to buy him another present. Unbelievable! Who ever heard of such a policy?!? They should refund the money... period. Total and complete SCAM! Never mind this child is now out of one of the few Christmas presents he actually received. Shameful.
Hello Jessica, we are truly sorry for the inconvenience of not properly refunding you. We have looked into your order and we have issued a full refund back to you for this order. We ask that you please allow 2-10 business days for the refund to process. Please let us know if there is anything we can further assist you with

I tried to order a jersey from the multiple websites that this company owns. Had I known they were all run by Fanatics, I would have never ordered online. I ended up purchasing 5 of the same jersey due to so many issues. They sent me the wrong one, they take days to reply with a robotic message that is no help whatsoever, they sent one that was damaged, they were out of stock on 2 others but took over 2 weeks to inform me. The service both on the phone and via email has been awful and after 2 months of back and forth, I am still trying to get my money back. They keep trying to refund me only a fraction of what I paid. I do not have any jerseys now nor do I EVER want to shop here again.
Hello Marissa, we do apologize for the inconvenience. We have looked into your order and we do see that you have been fully refunded. The latest refund was issued on January 13,2017. We ask that you please allow 2-10 business days for the refund to process. If there is another order that you would like us to look into please let us know.
Thanks, Whitney P.
I placed an order with 3 items (64.99 sweatshirt with 25% discount=$48.74, hat for $17.99, sweatshirt for $84.99) totaling $151.72. I used $30 fan cash and paid the remaining $121.72 by credit card. The $84.99 sweatshirt was actually delivered in a timely manner. The hat and other sweatshirt were not. I asked repeatedly to cancel which they refused. The items arrived over a month later. I decided to keep the hat but returned the other sweatshirt. I received an email stating I would receive $46.38 credited to the original payment method (not sure how they calculated that amount). They credited $18.74 to my credit card and the other $30 back to fan cash. I have requested the full amount be credited to my card (seeing as how I paid over $120 towards this order), but they refuse. This is fraud, in my opinion. They owe me $48.74, not $18.74 plus fan cash. Fan cash is no use to me as I will NEVER shop here again.
Hi Tina, we are extremely sorry for the way this issue has been handled. We have looked into your order and we do see that on January 21,2017, you were fully refunded for your order.

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

Hello Jason, thank you for your feedback! We are sorry we failed to meet your expectations. We do see that each of the items you purchases did have a 1-3 business day processing time on them due to various reasons, including the custom nature of the hoodie. We see that you contacted us to cancel your order in full less than 24 hours after the order was placed. We understand that you were excited to get your merchandise quickly, but we urge you to read any special processing time frames that may be present - especially for customized items - to ensure you understand the expectations for the items you are paying for. We apologize again for any confusion and we hope you will allow us to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Sarah B.
