Verified ReviewerThree hours on hold!!!!
- - Checkout wouldn't proceed for two items.
- - Chat rep couldn't see rewards expiring 12/24.
- - Phone agent found rewards, but the order still wouldn't go through.
1. I ordered two items, but the website wouldn't let me proceed with the checkout process.
2.
I chatted with a service representative who was supposed to help me from his end; however, he couldn't see my promotional rewards, which I could see and didn't want to lose since they expire on 12/24.
3. I then called customer service, and the representative managed to put everything together, found my rewards, and although I received an email saying that my new Bloomingdales card (for $25 for every $100 spent today and tomorrow) was approved, it still wouldn't go through. She transferred me to the credit department and stayed on the line with me for a long time before leaving. She was supposed to call me back, but...
4.
After being on hold for 2 hours and 55 minutes, I hung up.
This is seriously frustrating.
5. I went back online, but the items were removed from my shopping basket, and I have no idea what's happening.
Definitely a very unhappy customer.

Verified ReviewerThe representative was very helpful and friendly, but this is an inconvenience for me to drive this distance to have this security issue removed that was left on my order prior to shipment
The security device was left on the item shipped to me, now I have to drive over an hour from where I live to have it removed
User's recommendation: Remove security devices before shipping
Received A Gift Card 25$
- - I called customer service to clear my gift card and the call lasted longer than expected.
- - It included a request for the last four of my SSN.
I had to call customer service to clear my gift card so I thought I would use it. The call turn into a longer call then I could imagine they want to know everything to the point when the young lady ask for the last four of my social I said that's alright, enough.
Just to use this card for 25$. Never mind that's alright.

Verified ReviewerCustom Service is unresponsive
- - Returned item; refund issued as a gift card rather than the original payment.
- - Customer service promised a reply within 30 days but has not responded.
I purchased an item online & returned the item within 1 day of receiving it. Instead of crediting my original form of payment they sent me a gift card.
When I emailed & called customer service I was told they with get back to me within 30 days!
Its been over 30 days & I still havent received a response. I would never recommend shopping here.
User's recommendation: Don’t shop here. There are too many options out there that sell the same products. So why would you shop at a place that can be bothered to respond.

Verified Reviewer |Return
- - Ordered online with two e-gift cards; returns were not credited (issue from 2023); since May 2024, reps say claims are needed with a 90-day wait.
I've placed an order online with two separate e-gift cards. The items were returned, but I never received credit.
Mind you, this was done in 2023. I've been calling since May 2024, and every time I call, all they do is tell me they have to submit a claim because someone received the gift card that was mailed to me, and I have to wait 90 days for the seven or eight claims they now have created.
- Are very racist and they dont refund money for your returns
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Dont order with egift cards

Verified ReviewerCharged but no product
- - Spent 45 minutes verifying dress availability and express shipping; $400 pending.
- - No order verified in the system; repeated holds and transfers.
I spent 45 minutes waiting and then speaking with a customer service representative at Bloomingdales. I had to speak with a rep to verify that the dress was immediately available and not backordered, and to have the dress sent express mail.
After this long conversation, the rep charged me approximately $400, which is a pending charge on my credit card. She immediately had me complete a customer satisfaction survey to praise her abilities. A few minutes later, I checked my store account but there wasn't any verification of my order. This required me to call a second time, be placed on hold again, speak with a confused rep, wait for a 'manager' who was probably also a rep, and get transferred to another Macy's rep who thought I was talking about a Macy's order.
I wasted another hour being told I didn't have an order number so they couldn't help me. Now, I'm going to dispute the charge if it drops from pending, and I won't order again from Bloomingdales.
Customer service at Bloomingdales has gone way downhill since a call I needed to make 1.5 years ago. I will never buy from there again.
- Good clothing
- Terrible customer service long waits to speak with rep
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Don't buy there. Customer service is awful.
Customer service
- - Sign-in error suggests an issue on their end.
- - Spoke with a tech for over an hour; no resolution.
- - Next day, over 30 minutes on chat; no resolution.
I tried to sign into my account and kept getting an error message saying there was a problem on their end. I spent over an hour on the phone with one tech, and she couldn't help me.
The next day I spent over 1/2 hour on chat, and they couldn't help.
They gave me a telephone number to call, and it had a 45 minute wait without a callback option. Worst customer service yet.

Verified ReviewerNo quality control. SO frustrating.
- - The order was swapped for a Zara jacket with swapped tags; replacement wasn’t sent and refunds are delayed after six calls.
Not resolved. Still disputing refund.
I received my online order and it was not what I ordered and was clearly swapped for another item.
Bloomingdales have admitted to an error on their behalf and I’m waiting for advice of next steps. Not happy with assistance so far, has taken eight weeks.
I called customer service immediately to report the fraudulent activity. They said they would send a replacement, then they did not because of the high value of the item until the package was returned.
I returned the item and spoke with customer service again to make sure they knew the package had the incorrect item, and requested a refund. 6-7 weeks after purchasing Ive received any email from the Bloomingdales warehouse saying Ive returned the incorrect item and it has been posted back to me and a refund will not be issued until the correct item is received. You have got to be joking! I feel SO frustrated after having to call six times over the last month.
Why am I having to pay for someone elses fraudulent activity and lack of quality control. Ive had no help from Bloomingdales to expedite this matter or a refund.
This is absolutely the pits. This was the first and last time I will buy anything online from Bloomingdales.
- Nice merchandise
- Terrible quality control and process
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: I do not recommend

Verified ReviewerHorrible Customer Service and Need Resolution ASAP
- - Order placed 12/16, delivered 12/18/23.
- - Credit refund declined; follow-up needed.
- - Tracking shows neighbor's address; USPS says a claim is possible.
Not resolved yet
However, that credit request was declined and I received an email about it. I called immediately to inquire further and felt so frustrated. They assured me that everything will be okay. And don't worry, it will get approved.
However, I received another email showing that was declined. I called again #180*-***-**** and asked to speak with the supervisor as the associate said it was declined due to the business decision? I did not what that meant? The supervisor said that she put a request for reorder and call me back in a few days once it go thru.
I have not received any phone call or status update. When I called CS to followup during the holiday season, they asked me to call later as their office is not open yet. , when I try to track #IZ5V59V503******** shows pic of my neighbor's home not mine. I spoke with the USPS, they said that Bloomingdale could find a claim since the package is not delivered to the right address.
However I could not do it at my end. I am frustrated and exhausted of everything I could do to resolve this matter. I can't dispute the Bloomingdale credit card balance as well and they are asking me to pay it. How could I pay for something that I have not received it?
I don't think it's fair. Please help.
Return Item
- - Returned an extra item; opened a service ticket; promised warehouse return, but it didn't happen; told to wait 2-3 days; supervisor couldn't help.
I returned an extra item that was not purchased from Bloomingdales. I called and let them know about it and I also opened a ticket through customer service support.
They assured me that the warehouse would be notified and return it to me (which was an expensive one).
This never happened.
They have been asking me to wait 2-3 business days over and over again.
Today I called and spoke with the supervisor who is from Macy's and kept talking to me about Macy's... and she said that there is nothing they can further do.
Kim seemed unwilling to try and help and as a supervisor, she seemed not to be able to do her job in any different way than a customer rep...
Thank you for nothing!
