Management stinks
June 4, 2024

This store is going down hill really fast. Their products are cheap and the cost is high. The North Scottsdale store has one of the worst store managers i have ever seen. The less I shop here the better.

Pre-sale should be a pre-crime.
May 28, 2024

Pre-sale should be a pre-crime.
Looking at the receipt of an online order from Targé, I noticed a new charge, it is called Regional Fees. Regional Fees opens up to tell you: "Regional Fees - Fee Total $1.00 - Bag Fee 1.00
Regional fees are based on your address and/or pickup store location.
Bag Fee
Bag fees are required by law in your area. This estimated bag fee is for the cost of 10 bags at this store. You'll only be charged for the bags used for your order. For Drive Up or Order Pickup orders, the final bag fee can be refunded at pickup if you decline bags or bring your own. If an EBT card has been applied as payment on your order, bag fees will not be charged."
That is, Target, is pre-charging you for something that you might be interested in purchasing. I hope this heinous practice is not adopted by other underhanded businesses, or they will be pre-charging a 50K dollar Regional Fee next time I am window shopping for a used car.

Only shows 'online' pricing for walk in items
May 27, 2024
Updated review

I'm looking for a men's sport coat... been 20+ years. Need to try on. Search engines were worthless in finding a 'local' business. Settles for Target - has good selection and only 50 miles away...
Except all of the prices are 'online purchase', just like the way Walmart.com does - bait and switch, shows one price but when you get into the store, price is way different. Guess Target doesn't want people going into their stores either, just order online and have someone bring out to your car.
Since I don't know my size anymore, guess I'll order online, have them bring it out to my car, try it on and if it doesn't fit, refuse it and just sit in my car and order a different size for them to bring out to me.

Website Broken
May 20, 2023
Previous review

During a power outage, I looked for a USB fan with my phone, which I HATE when I have PC with 4 monitors, but the power was out. I also have plenty of power 'bricks' for recharging my phone and tablet... so a fan shouldn't be a problem.
First, the website gave me what I was looking for... and the 2nd item is a car plugin, not USB, the 4th item is a wall plug-in fan, the 5th item is battery powered (only),... Guess Target's search engine is based on Google's search engine.
Next, I tried to give feedback, but the 'Feedback' button at the bottom of the webpage doesn't do anything. So I tried the 'Contact Us', but that seems to be only restricted to 'orders'... but they offer a 'chat', which I won't attempt on my phone (I do not text).
Lastly, why do they show 'when purchased online' pricing? What's the price if I walk into the store... like Walmart.com, 20% to 100+% higher priced?

Rude workers
May 16, 2024
Updated review

I picked up an order at the Lee's Summit,Mo store today and the girl that helped me was very smug. I asked her if she wanted the basket I had because there was several items she didn't even look at me and said no it won't fit back here. She brings my order out in the same size cart lol. She doesn't say thank you or anything and walks off. Talk about rude and disrespectful. I'm used to it now most workers don't care about customers.

Rude curbside employees
December 19, 2023
Previous review

I've been buying from Target and using their curbside pickup for years but their employees are getting worse and worse. I picked up an order today in Lee's Summit and the guy that brought me the order was a teenager that was rather rude. In the past the employees were very nice saying have a nice day after bringing the order but now they just toss the bags in and walk off. This is a problem in most stores across the US it's not just this one store or company.

My experiences with Target delivery have been a mix of positive and negative. On the plus side, Target offers a wide range of products available for delivery, from groceries to household items. Additionally, their delivery tracking system provides updates on the status of orders, allowing customers to monitor their shipments. However, there are areas for improvement. Delivery times can be inconsistent, with some orders arriving later than expected. Furthermore, the packaging of items can be subpar, leading to damage during transit. Overall, while Target offers convenience, enhancements in delivery reliability and packaging would improve the overall service.

Target Misses the Mark
April 26, 2024

I never thought I'd say this, but Target missed the mark big time with my recent order. Not only did the delivery arrive late, but the item itself was completely different from what I had ordered. It's frustrating to see a company known for its reliability falter so badly in fulfilling basic customer expectations. Disappointed doesn't even begin to cover it.

The store layout is well-organized, making it easy to find what I need, and the prices are competitive. I also appreciate the wide range of exclusive brands and designer collaborations available at Target. The Target app and curbside pickup options have made shopping even more convenient.

I do not buy from this store anymore
March 6, 2024

I used to buy here, that is why I got their credit card in the first place. I bought a hand vac that would never charge properly. I tried another and had the same issue.

Terrible Customer Service-Damaged Shipments
February 17, 2024

Would give zero if I could. Target.com reguarly ships product with ZERO packing materials. I have complained multiple times. They also use cheap shipping service (surepost). Over half shipments arrive damaged. Because of no packing materials, the collectibles inside were damaged. Yet they will not process a return for a damaged item that THEY shipped using THEIR shipper of choice and THEY decided to put no packing materials in the box. Their customer service states they have to esculate to a specialist that will call me in 5-7 days. I have a video and photos! What is there to esculate? What happened to customer service? Worst service of all the retailers. Never buy collectibles here.

The miserable customer service
February 14, 2024

Customer Service Department

Target Corporation

Dear Target Customer Service,

I am writing to express my profound disappointment and
Frustration with the abysmal customer service I encountered at your store
Located at 1275 Caroline St NE, Atlanta, GA *******, on [02/14/2024]. My recent
Experience was nothing short of appalling and has left me questioning whether
Target truly values its customers.

The incident occurred when I attempted to return an item that
Failed to meet my expectations or function as advertised. Instead of receiving
The assistance and understanding I rightfully expected, I was met with rudeness
And disrespect from an employee who conspicuously lacked a name tag. This
Individual's discourteous behavior and dismissive attitude were deeply
Unsettling and completely unacceptable.

To exacerbate matters, when I attempted to escalate my concerns
To a manager or someone in a position of authority, I was informed that they
Were all on vacation. This feeble excuse for the absence of managerial
Oversight only served to compound my frustration and reinforce the perception
Of Target's indifference towards customer satisfaction.

Moreover, my attempts to address the issue with Human Resources
Were met with refusal, leaving me feeling ignored and marginalized. I cannot
Help but wonder if my treatment was influenced by discriminatory attitudes, as
I am of Middle Eastern descent and visibly Muslim. Such blatant disregard for
Customer concerns and refusal to engage in meaningful dialogue is inexcusable.

When I attempted to seek resolution by contacting your
Headquarters, I was met with further disappointment. The response I
Received—that an investigation would be conducted but no information would be
Shared with me—reflects a dismissive attitude towards customer feedback and
Fails to provide any reassurance of meaningful action being taken.

In light of this egregious treatment, I can no longer in good
Conscience continue to support Target as a customer. I will be taking my
Business elsewhere and will actively discourage friends, family, and
Acquaintances from patronizing your stores. I wholeheartedly recommend that
Others do the same.

I urge you to take immediate and decisive action to address the
Systemic issues plaguing your customer service department and to implement
Measures to ensure that such incidents do not recur in the future. Customers
Deserve to be treated with respect, dignity, and fairness, regardless of their
Background or appearance. Anything less is a betrayal of trust and a disservice
To your loyal patrons.

In closing, I implore you to reevaluate your approach to
Customer service and take proactive steps to restore confidence in your brand.
Until such time, I will be taking my business to companies that prioritize
Customer satisfaction and respect their clientele, such as Kroger, Walmart,
Costco, Publix, Whole Foods, Best Buy, and others.

I tried to make a PayPal payment but received errors. I called PayPal and they said there was no issue with my account, I understood. I paid for an order using PayPal earlier today and for other orders lately and there were no PayPal payment issues.

I then called Target and spoke to a woman who thought it was a PayPal account issue. She couldn't understand that the problem was with their OWN website. I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor and then I was disconnected. I called again and asked to speak to a manager or supervisor but was told basically she couldn't transfer me and or there was no one to transfer me to. She also could not understand that the errors were because of their OWN website after telling her multiple times that there was no problem ordering an item earlier today and also at other times too lately, I believe I may have said using PayPal. Finally, I disconnected the call.

Incomplete bestelling
January 18, 2024

Heb een bestelling gedaan van 10 dozen snoep. Heb er echter maar 7 geleverd gekregen. Heb geprobeerd te bellen maar kwam in de wacht en de verbinding werd daarna verbroken. Hierna heb ik een mail gestuurd, deze hebben ze beantwoord met dat er geen fouten gemaakt zijn. Hierna heb ik nogmaals gemaild maar geen reactie. Ik heb dus een incomplete bestelling ontvangen en hier wordt niks mee gedaan. Eerste en laatste keer dat ik hier iets bestel en adviseer ook aan iedereen om hier niks te bestellen!

Target Prices
January 12, 2024

I think that prices could be lower than what the store has them at and that it should jack the prices up because of the store name and that quality of the stuff should also be important to them and not the price and that customer service could be better or at least more polite and that it could have the layout of the store easier to get around in and understand where things are at.

Worst customer service
December 24, 2023

My home oven broke so I ordered a countertop oven for pickup. So many issues but the worst was how rude customer service was. Not only did they not help he also cut me off and ended the chat abruptly. I took screenshots of the end of the chat too. That's target for a wonderful holiday.

Purchase of andes thin mints peppermint
December 23, 2023

The computer showed the were in stock. When i got there only the regular mints were available. When i went to check out at the self service counters, they were all shut down. This is at 9 oclock in the morning. I got in a long line to check out at one of the regular checkers when an employeewent over and turned on the self service counters. All were taken bu one when i got there. I tried to use it and it didnot work. The employee came over and told me it was out of order. Sorriest experience i've ever had and i just left the candy there, By the time i found out the register did not work there was a line at the other ones. Won't go back to target. Never had this trouble at wal mart.
