This company is horrible. I have dealt with three different customer service representatives on the phone about cancelling an online order so that I can have it shipped to my current address. Person #1 told me that the "order was too new" and he couldn't cancel or modify the shipping address. He also told me to call back later that night or the next day so maybe they could try then. I called back later that night. Person #2 told me that "the order had already been processed for shipment" and that there was "no way to modify the shipping address or cancel at this time". They said to call back once I get a tracking number so they can re-route the package. I called back the next day when I got a shipment confirmation and tracking number. Person #3 told me that the package had already been shipped to the address on file, but that she could put a note on the order that it is not addressed to the correct address. We all know that the post office likely won't read this note. She then told me the only solution is to call the post office phone # and give them my tracking number so they can reroute the package to the current address. I've been on hold with the post office for 30 mins now and have decided to write a review.
I don't know what possessed me to order online from UO again because I've had similar issues in the past.
For comparison, about 9 months ago, I ordered something from Madewell online and this was while I still worked there as an employee. After I ordered, I realized I never put in my employee id # to get the discount. I called as soon as I ordered, spoke with a really nice representative who redid the order for me with my discount applied - easy fix.
I will NEVER shop online at UO ever again. Their customer service is horrendous.
THEY TOOK FOREVER TO SHIP MY ORDERS SEPARATELY, AND WORST OF ALL, THEY SHIPPED THE WRONG SIZE. WHEN I EMAILED THEM, THEY SAID "UNFORTUNATELY" THE SIZE THAT I WANTED WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. OF COURSE ITS NOT AVAILABLE, BECAUSE THEY GAVE ME SIZE TO SOMEONE ELSE INSTEAD OF ME. AND THAT IS THEIR WAY OF "FIXING" THEIR OWN MISTAKE. HONESTLY, IM A LOYAL CUSTOMER, AND THIS IS WHAT I GOT.
They asked me for the authorization code from by bank service, I gave all the needed info. They kept sending me requests about this authorization code and I've reached out to them 5 times in order to give all the needed information. Afterwards, they send me the message that my order was cancelled... Such disappointing experience
I ordered a hoodie at the start of February. For one week after that, I had no clue of when I was getting the order. Then they tell me its a back order and won't come before April 24. Now it's telling me it in transportation to me for over a week. All in all the worst experience
Submitted an order for a pair of shoes, and 2 days later, the order was cancelled for no reason, other than it "could not be fulfilled at this time". Tried ordering again and it went through. It's the 6th business day since I've ordered and it STILL hasn't shipped. How can you charge for shipping but take your time getting it out? Won't be shopping with UO anymore.
I ordered an item online and the website had a previous address on file. I added and then selected my current address and it still shipped it to the other address. Called them 4 hours later, before the item had shipped, and was told there was nothing they could do until it had shipped. I was told to call back as soon as it shipped to have it re-routed. When I did that, I was told I would not find out if it worked for 24-48 hours and there was no guarantee that it would not be delivered to the wrong address. Their customer service reps were rude and this is ridiculous. It had not even shipped and there was no option on the website to cancel the order after it was placed. Its 2018 - Urban Outfitters needs to get with the program and update their website and customer service. Their products are overpriced - you would hope you could at least get some good customer service.
I ordered a package on March, 9th, 2018.It is now March 27th, and still hasn't arrived(despite saying 7-10 business days). I was given tracking info, however I haven't been given any tracking updates since March 16th(11 days ago), and that update was "Electronic information submitted by shipper", which in my mind doesn't tell me anything. I had enough and emailed them... it has been 11 hours and my package still hasn't arrived. I'm very pissed off, disappointing, and concerned, that I have no idea, where a package I bought with $90 CAD of my hard earned money went. This is the second time I ordered from Urban Outfitters. The first time was on November 2017, it was essentially the same package, and I waited 2 weeks, then finally got an update... "package canceled". My package better end up at my door soon, as I'm definitely not gonna risk ordering off UO ever again. This is f*cking ridiculous
When we arrived home we were missing one of our items we paid for. I contacted the store and was told I had to drive back out to the store location to have them refund my money. They would not take any info off the receipt over the phone. I wrote an email to the customer service department pointing out how stupid this policy is especially when I shopped at The Mall of America store which is visited by many people from out of state. They did nothing to rectify the situation. I would not recommend shopping at this store
Urban Outfitters has the most disgusting service I've ever seen. They treated me like I'm nobody. They hold total amount twice! I wrote them a letter but who cares? I got clothes and it's a trash I paid 70 USD in T-shirt and it's like a piece of... I'm more than disappointed.
I placed an order in November 2017. Two holds for total amount were placed on my card, and then the actual charge - so the money was taken out of my bank account a total of 3 times! Then later refunded twice. And then out of nowhere in February 2018, months after I paid for and received my order, I received a new charge. I could not figure it out and customer service told me it was for this November order. They stopped returning emails and everyone says call this other number (back and forth). Had to go to bank and report for fraudulent charge and cancel my debit card.
I made an order online and they declined my card, naturally i checked to see i had typed every card number right and i had so tried again and It declined. Then i saw that money was drawn from my account for both orders even though they said my card my declined which left me with on unwanted order which they haven't done anything about yet despite contacting their customer service...
Rude and unhelpful. Terrible communication. Complaint re misleading website information. Will not shop with them again.
I ordered three items there, but received only two! Customer support did their best to help me with the lost item (it was good), but they said that they were sorry, the item was awarded the label "missing". I am disappointed.
I ordered over $50 of items and it was never delivered. They said they would not give me any refund or resend because of a policy change. So now I am out $50 without my clothes. I shop here frequently and I am so incredibly irritated. It makes me not want to shop there anymore.
Horrible customer service, waiting 3 months for my item, it never arrived. I called about it, they said it would be on the way. It never came then they said it was cancelled
Their stock is really cool, but their customer support and delivery is just awful. Just don't try to order here. Your package will either come too late, or won't come at all. It is a shame their online order system is such bad, because the stuff they sell is really cool.
I placed an order with Urban Outfitters two weeks ago. When I received the package, it was for completely wrong items. I called and they said they'll send me a replacement. However the replacement never came, the tracking details kept saying "Held in Warehouse." I contacted Urban Outfitters again, who said they can't file a claim until 10 business days later, even though I had ordered two weeks ago because I needed to bring this overseas for my sister's present. Then Urban Outfitter told me that it was delivered yet because it was over the weekend. Then they told me again that they were still within the timeframe of delivery.
I finally found a way to call the shipping company myself. Apparently Urban Outfitters messed up and forgot to put my apartment number on the replacement package so they had no way to deliver it. But Urban Outfitters never realized that mistake so just kept telling me to wait. If I hadn't tried to solve the problem myself, I would be sitting here falsely trusting a company that obviously has no idea how to carry out their business. They have one job, and they're doing great messing it up while trying their best at not being helpful.
They charged me twice for the same item and cancelled my order! Stay away from urbanoutfitters, the worst store ever
I shopped for a bag from another country, they sent me an email asking for the authorization requests to prevent fraud and so I should contact my bank, I did and when I tried to answer for the authorization number they just DELETED MY ACCOUNT WITH ALL THE INFO ABOUT THE ORDER. Now I dont know if I will get a refund on my credit card (it was an expensive order) and they don't answer my emails any longer. STAY AWAY!
I was charged for an extra shirt on my order that was shipped out over a month late... Customer service has been ignoring my calls and emails, constantly brushing me off. I was not offered any sort of compensation, or even reimbursed for the extra charge.
Answer: I would call them directly to be sure. I did not get that email, but I would err on the side of caution...
Answer: Mine took a few weeks - but that was to Australia. You'll probably get it - but I hope you like it as they are terrible at getting back to you and getting a refund took me MONTHS!
Answer: Never bought from em, but they're so effin expensive like save urself the trouble and shop somewhere else like Pacsun, Brandy, even Romwe lmao.
