Target has an exculisve Skylander Granite Crusher. I've been waiting and looking for this Skylander for 3 months in several locations in the DFW area and Midland/Odessa area. Everytime I go in or call they never have this in stock. I called today 7 different Target stores today and was infomred today that they no longer are producing this Skylander.
You still have signs up showing this as being available only through Target. If that is the case you need to make it available online! and have dates for the the length you plan on selling this item only through Target. I now have a 6 year old boy that is going to be crushed.
I'm also not impressed with the customer service in Electronics has gone down hill. You need to have better signs and take them down when the item is no longer availeable. I use to hold Target up to a better standard.
What can Target do to fix this issue...... A very angry customer that keeps seeing a sign saying only exculsively at Target when the item is no longer available.
I have bought thousands of dollars of merchandise from Target, not including gift cards, etc. I am the customer they try to acquire and keep.
I did my research and decided to buy the baby Einstein jumper for $89.99 in the store. I researched it online that it was indeed in the store, stocked and available. I also called and spoke directly to an employee at that store location stating very clearly that I see the product is available in their store, but I need them to check for certain, before I make the trek up to the store. I live in NYC and the only Target is at 116th in Harlem. I needed to:
1. Hire a babysitter (which I have never done, I have a 6 month old infant)
2. Leave work early
3. Purchase a taxi (we do own cars here in Manhattan typically)
4. Buy the item
5. Flag down another taxi, which is not easy up there.
I told the Target employee very specifically, I needed to know it was actually there before I made the investment of both money and time to come up there. I didnât buy online because I needed the product asap. The target representative put me on hold for a bit and checked and said yes, it is here.
So, I began my journey to the store. When I get there, there was no product available. I had two different target employees check and they said, the computer was wrong, there isnât inventory. I said, but I called and spoke to someone specifically who check and said it was here, and they said well, itâs not.
Clearly, I am very upset. I paid the transportation cost, child care cost, my valuable time, and leaving my infant for nothing.
I quickly called Target customer service so they could remedy my obvious frustration as a customer and the first rep said she, âwas sorry and there was nothing she could do.â I asked for a manager and she said the same thing, but as I continued to explain how upset and what an impact this had on me, she put me on hold many times, asked who I spoke to at the store, etc.
After many, many minutes of this, she said she called the store and they indeed did not have the item (I think I knew that) and that target online said the item was there, but it wasnât.
She proceeded to throw in a disclaimer that the online tool was not always accurate (ok, then why provide it to your customers).
I said ok, that is not good customer service, but I called the store specifically to make sure nothing like this would happen and talked to a paid target employee at that store.
Round and round we go, I said ok will you reimburse me for my transportation expense, child care cost, etc. She said âwe would never do that.â I said what will you do to remedy this horrible experience for me? She said nothing until finally at the end of the call, she could give a $5 voucher.
A $5 voucher, are you kidding me! Target, you have very bad customer service and policies. How many of these posts, messages do you have to read before you do something to keep customers?
On November 30, 2012 I went on line and ordered a heated mattress pad from Target. On December 3rd I received nothing that it had shipped and I would have it by the 5th. When it didn't arrive I called and was told it would be delivered by the 10th. Still nothing.
Called again and was told to be patient and I would have it by the 14th. Well here it is the 16th and still nothing. The customer service agents don't know what is going on. At this point I either want what I ordered or a refund of my $60.57.
I ordered a 3 piece dining set that required assembly. There were no instructions in the box. I called Target .com to request the assembly instructions. The first person I talked to put me on hold for 10 minutes after I explained the problem. When she came back on the line she stated she could not help me and transferred me to another person. I again explained the problem and was put on hold jfor 15 minutes and was told I would have to be transferred to another person . I repeated my story for the 3rd time. I was put on hold for 10 minutes and was told that they could not provide the instructions and I was then transferred to the 4th person. I told my story again and was put on hold on and off for 30 minutes. I was again transferred and told they would try to get the instructions mailed to me bout could promise they would arrive. I asked about returning the set and get a refund. I was then transferred to a gentleman the had a very difficult time understanding was I was talking about and was abruptly transferred to another person. She thought it was very amusing that I was transferred without warning. I got to repeat my story 7 times. I will be returning the set and will NEVER shop with Target again!
Target gave me the dates for arrival, so I went ahead and placed my order. What they didn't tell me was that the UPS was going to transfer my order over to the USPS. That took an extra 5 days. I was suppose to get it on Friday instead, Tues. This was a birthday present. Now it's late and the little girl is very unhappy. I even called on Weds. to make sure that the package would still arrive in time. The Rep DAVID said "don't start worring until Friday". What the package is suppose to be here Friday. Then Friday came and NO package.
Target Stinks at shipping merchandise. Seriously, don't waste your time with Taget shipping.
When purchasing items from a list given through the Baby Registry at Target, Gig Harbor, Washington. Saturday, 10-22-11, I was told my check was rejected and I would have to pay for my merchandise in another way. The supervisor said the rejection was out of their hands and they were sorry. The checker was having repeated troubles with his scanner and called the supervisor several times and each time was told to manually key in the necessary information. Following her orders he manually entered my check ID and driver's license number.
He called her back again and they said something I couldn't hear, then she told me my check had been rejected. I contacted my bank, then TeleCheck. The bank knew we had never had any difficulty with them and had a good amount in our checking account with them. They only knew of the rejection because of our call. TeleCheck will send me a written confirmation that they did not reject the check and that we had never had any negative activity on our bank account. By process of elimation I deduced that the checker had made an error when he manually entered my driver's license information.
To their credit, when I contacted Target Corporate Office I did get a prompt call and they verified that that checker did make an error. What a huge error for the supervisor to have let the checker go on after he repeatedly let her know his scanner was non-funcitoning and what a wrong to infer the rejection was out of their hands. Why not just double check the entry and why not tell me the rejection was related to my driver's license? As the lines were long I did not made a scene (sorry about that) and chose to pay by VISA and get to the bank to see how they could help me.
I have been writing checks since college 6 decades back and NEVER had any difficulty. What a slap in the face to a long time customer to do this in front of all in the area on a busy day. Believe me, their little, "I'm sorries" do not heal the insult. The person from corporate said they would have a meeting with 'the team' to see how to do this better. I am so disgusted with this treatment and the thoughtless, careless, dishonest talk from the supervisor that I can't imagine wanting anything badly enough to deal with them again. The lady who said she was the Gig Harbor Target manager when I called back merely said I could call corporate (late Saturday afternoon) but that they do not give written apologies and that there had to be a reason for the rejection.
Of course she couldn't tell me the reason. I told her to begin with she could locate the one involved by checking to see which scanner wasn't working...she hastened to say that that had been taken care of. So she obviously was aware of the problem. She gave me no satisfaction whatever. I can't imagine she really is the manager. I think it was just too sloppy an operation and their treatment of people too indifferent. It would have been so simple to catch the error had they cared. Shopping for a baby gift on a Saturday should have been a fun experience.
I now think of Target as a place to avoid and maybe the lesson to be learned is to use my VISA...they didn't have any trouble with that.
I purchased two face masks yesterday from the halloween section. After getting them home I decided I did not like them. I took them back with my receipt and was told I could not return them. I was told that the Forest Lake store has a policy not to take them back because they found that customers had worn them and then tried to return them. I explained that I had purchased these after halloweeen but she said that didn't matter. She said (the woman at the customer service section) that she had posted a note saying these could not be returned. I told her I did not see the note and in fact these were with many other items. I looked at my receipt and did not see anything saying that these items were sold as "final sale no return". I have always believed that Target provided good customer service but this time I am extremely disappointed and feel that I have been taken advantage of. I expect Target to take these masks back because they have not been worn and that I am entitled to my money back. Let me know if you agree with this request.
I spent $120 worth of goods today, 12/1/12, at your Orangethrope Ave., Buena Park California Target store. I did not expect that your cashier on duty by the name of WILLIAM JONES would embarrass me in front of other people in line for taking a couple of regular plastic bags simply because I needed to divide my large purchase. Mind you, he gave me ONE large bag which would obviously be more difficult to carry. I'm a regular shopper at this local Target and expected better customer service. All I needed was an apology from this employee. After complaining to him and his supervisor, I heard him tell his supervisor that he's definitely not going to apologize. Is this the kind of customer service Target has? If that is the case, I will not be surprised if I see that store close for business sooner that I thought.
Store Number : 1786. Location : Sugarland, TX 77478. Issue: Ordered a Bread Sticks and Icee -- My daughter refilled the Icee and the representative INDU said I have to pay for that because there is NO refill for that Icee - First of all there is NO sign says there is NO refill, but I thought it might have been printed in the Receipt so I paid the Money and even in the Receipt it was NOT mentioned there is NO refill. I asked the Representative where its been mentioned that there is NO REFILL, she says for a long time that's the practice, how do a Customer know that, the other drinks that are kept aside have the refill, if there is NO refill then Mention that.
I felt its TARGET fault and not mine for sure - INDU was very rude and Arogant and said if you want I will return the money, my concern is NOT that, keeping the fault on Target and putting the blame on a Customer is NOT perfect. So I requested for a supervisor and then came MIKE, who has NO patience and dont want to listen what the customer says, he simply said return the money its FREE for him - I was so surprised how Target made a person as Supervisor - Shame on Target.
Target has to remember customers are NOT beggars, this is totally an UNPROFESSIONAL treatment by INDU and MIKE - If I were the CEO definitely I would show the EXIT doors for these kind of reps who spoil the image of Target.
On New Year's Day I went to return an Innotab that had stopped working an hour after my daughter opened it on Christmas Day. She had received it as a gift and there was no gift receipt. I found out that it was purchased at a Target in Austin Texas where I reside. Ok, now I head there thinking this was going to be an even exchange an I'd be on my way, right? WRONG! When I get to the first store, yes the first store there were none in stock. I asked the lady working if she would please look and see if there were any more in the surrounding area because I really wanted my kid to have her favorite toy of the moment! The lady complied and called a store to ask if they had one in stock.
They said they did and would be holding it with my name on it. I arrived at the store on Louis Henna and yes there was an Innotab there with my name on it. I was so happy until the employee pointed out that the one on hold had been used and returned and she was not sure why it had been put back out on the floor! And was there another one in the store? Of course there was NOT! At this point I was only a little aggravated. The customer service rep did call around to a few other store that were all out of this Innotab as well! At this point I asked if I could just get a gift card now so that if this item didn't come in for a while I would not lose any value on the product. The lady said that was fine UNTIL she realized it was $79.00, $10.00 more than Target was willing to put on a merchandise card for a return without a receipt!
Now, I'm starting to get upset. The lady called the customer service line to ask if there was ant type of authorization code she could use to make this customer happy. She asked three times, they said NO three times! NOW I AM FURIOUS. I have worked in customer service all of my working life and most of that time has been spent managing. I am aware that all companies has its policies and procedures as they should. I'm also aware that in a situation such as this; my being inconvenienced by coming to a different store to get an item that was already used! Also, I was willing to eat that $10.00 and get a card for $70 but they would not do that either!! I left that store so livid that it ruined my day! I knew then that I would NEVER SHOP AT TARGET AGAIN! NOW LET ME TELL YOU ALL WHAT HAPPENED TWO DAYS LATER!
My boyfriend found the receipt!!!! I was so excited I made him return it right away! He obviously never returns anything because he turns to me and said " now that I found the receipt they will just go ahead and give me the merchandise credit so I can buy another one". I said no sweetheart, take the broken Innotab, your receipt, and get your cash back! There is no way I would give them my money after how they were so adamant that there was nothing they could do for me because of their policy! I actually felt sorry for the associate that attempted to get me that merchandise credit! I'm so happy and blessed that I work for a company that empowers its associates to make decisions that keep their customers happy!
If target can afford to lose customers because of their unwillingness to bend a little then so be it! I know I have told at least 15 people about my experience! So good luck with all that Target!
I purchased a set of chairs online, the product delivery was supposed to be delivered in 3-5 days and here i sit after 11 days without the product or communication from anyone at target. They arranged a shipping time to deliver and after the product was not received the neglected to call and tell me the product had not been received at local distributor. After reviewing the product on the website I noticed the chairs were now on sale at $100.00 less than I purchased. Requested they give me a credit and they will not credit me the difference because it was not within 7 days of ordering. This has been the worst experience ever. I will not be shopping at Target stores and will make sure to share my experience with every method available! Buy this product anywhere but here!
I was in the target Store in Cheektowago. NY (walden galleria). I went to purchase multiple items after collecting various coupons I used and spending a great deal of time finding the products and making sure they were appropriate for the ooupons being applied. The girl at the checkout bagged and put all the items in my cart (I had a very large order with multiple bags). After she started applying the coupons she began questing whether on purchased them and refused to look on the register receipt on the computer but made me dig though the bags to show her each iten (even if i bought three; i had to find all three!) really.
The line was building up. The last item she questioned (and by this time i was really annoyed) I could not find it while digging through the bags several times and it was in a bag by her; not even in the cart! We got the item out; she said this is not the right size for the coupon and I stood there thinking "how could that be"?. After I looked at the product I said wait a minute it is the right size and had to literally show her the size!. My daughter is a cashier at a local grocery store and she agreed that it was really ridiculous how she dragged out that whole transaction, held up the line and embarrassed me.
I have not had this happen in all my Target travels so I am assuming this female was likely poorly trained. I appreciate your feedback. I am a long time valued customer.
An item went on sale on Sunday. An hour after the store opened I went to purchase the item. I was told tha they must have sold out. Within the Hour? How many were in the store in the first place? They were so kind to offer me two more expensive models that were in fact in stock. They also offered me a rain check. If I wanted rainchecks I would order on line which is what I intend to do at another store even if I have to pay a little more. I know I won't be dragged to Target for something that is not in stock.
After standing in line at the Target store on Milwaukee St. in Boise, ID for 4 hrs. on Black Friday, I was in front of the 6 remaining 46" HDTVs for $298. I paused for 10 seconds to stabilize an elderly man's shopping cart as he loaded his TV. I turned and 2 young men loaded all 6 of the remaining TVs on 2 utility carts! When my husband informed them that the circular said "one per guest" they denied it and took them anyway. We informed 2 different security guards, they would do nothing about this. Why does Target not issue tickets, as other stores do to stop this unfair practice? It ruins the sale for everyone, is unfair and causes us to boycott Target indefinitely. Great marketing!
i just came from target the one on 120 city of hawthorne had the worst experience as a hispanic, bring the the items an had some coupons cashier shawntanett african american an maneger told me is per customer i said ok give me back the coupons an items i will get in line an pay, she anwer i cannot do that because u mite put it inside your basket an leave without paing for it i said are u calling me a thief she said no is the store policy i dont think u need to be better train u are calling me a thief infront of all these customers.
I was not allowed to use your $5 off $30 or more at the Target in West Hollywood , at Santa Monica Blvd. and La Brea. I was told I couldn;t use it becausre its a city Target, It may say City Target on the front but on the back it says TARGET COUPON EXPIRES 4/13/13.
I shopped today 3/21/13 and spent nearly $80. I don't live near a city Target , I do live 3 blocks from the one I went to today. Seriously your not the same company. How rude on your part to embarass me like that. I asked the manager and she was helpless, and when I asked her if it was the same company she was stalling for a second and then said we are told that we are not suppose to take them.
Then I asked you said your not suppose to but did they say you can not and she said the same thing again, she was useless. I am done shopping at TARGET, I HATE BEING CHEATED AND LIED TO AND YOUT COMPANY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF MAILING OUT COUPONS THAT ARE NOT AVAIABLE IN YOUR SHOPPING AREA. BAD POLICY LAZY LAZY COUSTOMER SERVICE.
In today's ad you advertise a Baby Boat Float for $12, went to the store just now at 12:00 p.m. after church and your store and all stores in Sacramento were out of them. The store I went to said there were 7 in stock and sold out at 8:00 a.m. I thought could order online and this product cannot be sold on line according to your web site. Everytime it seems I want a product at Target, and I realize it is summer, or whatever time of the year it is, your stores do not get very many of them and it is first come first serve, I realize, however, but not everyone can come in when your store opens. You could at least have it online when it is advertised in your weekly ads. It is very frustrating.
On a good note though I do love Target and especially your grocery department. There are very few items I can't find at your store without going to a grocery store, but that is alright. While shopping at Target this past weekend, I purchase one bottle of wine. When checking out, the clerk asked to see my ID. I showed her my DL and she said she had to scan it. I told her to take the wine off our bill and she said she couldn't do that (why not--too much trouble?). We have purchased liquor from all kinds of retail stores and have never been asked to scan our DL. I let her do it but realized I should have refused.
There is already too much of our information out there. This is the most ridiculous policy I have ever seen--when did you start doing this? I will never buy liquor from Target ever again!! We are usually asked to see our ID for verification when using a credit card, which I have no problem with. You need to rethink this policy! An unsatisfied customer!
I went to the Target to do some shopping today. I purchased, or intended to purchase over $200 worth of merchandise, only to have my Bank of America courtesy check denied by your agent. I went to BOA after leaving your store to see what was the matter. I was told my account had no issues. have had exemplary credit almost all my life. This was an embarrassment to myself being denied the purchase in front of the people behind me. The supervisor there offered no help just saying that's what the computer says!
Well I higly doubt I will return to a Target store after this. I was a monthly shopper there. I would like to see what kind of response I get from you at this level. I was wrongly parked outside of tour target store on sunday waiting for my wife who was about to come out when an employee from that store who was recollecting shopping carts came to yell at me and wanted to start a fight with me because he wanted me to move. I moved my car and proceeded inside the store for a complaint when that same employee came inside and told me i was a "wuzz and didnt have the balls to fight him instead of telling on him".
Why do you make it so hard to cash a "cash back check" that you send to my husband? No one has the right to ask for our social security numbers and yet that it what you require to cash a check. Why can't we just use our driver's license the way we do when we write a personal check? Also, why can't my husband sign and then I sign and cash the check with my driver's license ID? It seems that you purposely have made it difficult. This makes no sense when you are the one who sent the check to us. It has all the attributes of a scam.
The security employee who was at the door was hearing him as he told me this and wouldnt do anything. I told him that i was going to call the police as the employee kept on telling me the "lack of balls i had" for not confronting him, all of this happening while there was alot of people watching as you can imagine, the whole line of cashiers were just staring. After the security person sent this employee out the back the manager approached me, i told her i wanted to report the police because i felt threatened coming out but she (manager) told me she would take care of the situation.
She said there was cameras outside as well as inside the store and told me she would take care of the situation. I take responsability for my fault but there is no reason for one of your employees to insult, and threaten, pick a fight and try to embarass me in front of many people. If that employee would have been courtious in the first place none of this would have happened. I did not call the police because my wife convinced me not to, but i hope that this incident will not be taken for granted.
I live in Columbus GA and went to Targets on Bradley Park Drive. I was trying to purchase decongestion medicine. I went down the medication aisle and found the medicine I wanted but since it's controlled, I had to take the card to the counter to purchase it. I also had other medication items I was purchasing as well. When I handed the lady at the pharmacy counter the card with the item I wanted she told me to wait to see if they had it and they didnt. I asked her why then, was the cards not taken off the shelf if the items werent available. She went into a long process stating that the pharmacy doesnt put the cards in the medication aisle but the store does it. She wasnt concerned about my issue but was upset that she had to stop and explain to me why the item wasnt available. If the cards are located in the aisle where the medications are then the medication should be available. A customer shouldnt have to wait no matter how long in line to find out that the item isn't available. That isn't good business. So, then I took the medicines to the front counter due to the attitude of the person that waited on me and when I went up to the counter they asked me for my date of birth. I asked them why they needed it and they stated that they had to make sure that the medication wasn't being bought by underage children. I don't understand this policy especially if I am bald headed and have a bulging belly and am 58 years old. I have never had an issue with anyone knowing that I'm definately not an underage child so why should I have to provide that information. I could understand if I was a Young looking kid and walked up to purchase these products. Not understanding where Targets gets these ideas but it definately isn't customer relations based. If there is a Younger person coming through the line You ask THEM for their date of birth, but not someone that is 58.
My name is Ron Johnson my wife went to target today to do last minute shopping for kids school clothes got home and realized she was charged for 5polo shirts Itm#038033192 and actually only bought 2, the total spent $187.67 Receipt# 2-1240-1243-0078-7717-4 VCD#752-282-737 We called the store on Craig Rd 2189 N Las Vegas 89032 and were instructed to bring the receipt and all items back to the store, No problem just inconvienced to do so. upon arriving at the location we aproached the security guy who was Great! and very helpful he aproached an employee whos name we will get..
And asked him to help with the return he acted a little anoyed and was rushing, well the return / reimbursement was for 3 of the Polo shirts and he actually gave us $11.88 which was for 1 Polo and he headed off very quickly, my wife said to me Ron he only gave us a return for 1 shirt, I quickly ran over and flagged him down saying "hey you only returned to us the amount for 1 Polo" he came back and acted really anoyed! and said "NOW IM GETTING PISSED"! and the security guard actually apologised to my wife for what he said! He just walked right by us quickly and he immediately got the lady that supervises all the cashier lanes to help us, which she did!
It was so annoying that this guy said he was getting pissed off.. when she bought $187.67 in merchandise and was charged for items that she did not get, and then had to drive back to the store to get it taken care of and one of your store employees acts and says what he did! our experience tonight has us totally disapointed and my wife has been a loyal Target shopper knowing Walmart has cheeper prices and is directly across the street! Now Target will not be her first choice any longer.. I believe she will be shopping at Walmart. Thanks for the one experience that has changed how we now look at Target!!! His attitude towards us as a customer was so discusting !!
IS TARGET stores BECOMING BECOMING ANOTHER WALMART. I used to a avid shopper at walmart till I seen how they treated and pushed their employees.
Since then I and my friends have been taking our business to target. We find target stores very clean and the employees are quick and courteous to assist you. I generally shop the target store in Blackstone Mall and have been since their opening in 2003. Lately I have been observing a few things that have upset me. They employees are still courteous but seemed stressed and overwork. I than took a look around and noticed that there not that many people working to help you. It seems the staff has been cut down a lot.
I understand the economy is tough but there is still no need to cut the staff so much that they are running around like chickens with their head cut off. That is something that I would expect from Walmart . Recently I saw a gentlemen (most likely a exec) giving instructions to a very young employee though he was not yelling he was pretty harsh that young lady walked away crying. This appalled me and to beat that I went tg Fridays for lunch a overheard a few bosses their talking how they had to cut more staff.
It seems like target is becoming another walmart and that disgusts me. Some one in the high corporate anarchy ought to be looking in that store at Blackstone valley just to see how hard those employees are working and how they are being pushed to their limits and beyond before they lost more customers like me. For those employees who are still lucky to be working there go to your bosses or who ever else can help donât go home totally exhausted, worrying about your job and dreading to go to work.
If not you will end up like so many walmart employees feel free to express yourself. There are those of you who been working there for a long time and know a appreciate how target was just a year ago( though they seemed to be getting fewer and fewer) stand up be another satistic feel free to write your own article.
I would like to remain anonymous if possible.
I went to target motile in west saint paul to add a line to an existing AT&T account and received extremely poor service! I was placed on the wrong rate plan and also the device that was supposed to be activated was never actually activated. I had to take a trip all the way to the other side of town to get the correct phone activated!
When I got to the kiosk they were so busy trying to up-sale me on the Apple protection plan they neglected to tell me the insurance that I asked for had not been added. About 31 days into my plan I found out not only had I been placed on the wrong plan and double billed but that I also hadn't been enrolled in the insurance plan I requested.
I spoke to a manager Shana Cover at the West Saint Paul Target who told me she would call me back within 1-2 days with a response but after 5 days of no response I contacted her back she then told me her district manager wasn't responding to email or text messages so that's why she hasn't contacted me back.
She proceeded to tell me there was nothing that could be done for the employees error! Talk about poor customer service! By far, one of the worst experiences ever.
My son purchased Nintendo Donkey Kong Mini Mayham ds game for $30. Had he been able to test it at the store for 5-10 minutes he would not have purchased it. He is 11 and says it is utterly boring. The store offers us no recourse since the game was opened. Of course it is opened! How else would my child experience how boring the game is! It this is how Target treats their customers, they are low grade and do not deserve our business.
Yesterday I spent $385.47 at Target and when I arrived home did not have one sack that included about $150.00 ladies wearing apparel. After making sure I did not have this merchandise in car or home, I went to customer service and explained that I did not have the merchandise and the checker in putting many sacks (groceries and all) in the buggy perhaps did not place in my basket. They (security and manger) checked video and said all checked and placed and I walked out with all.
This is not true as I had at least 25 sacks and how could they view all??? Bottom Line, I have lost time, my merchandise and most of all insulted. I responded that I feel violated and they have lost a good customer!! I will not return to Target!!! They didn't seem to care nor have any sympathy that a senior citizen, well respected in her community feels violated. I would like for all Target leadership to know as a previous loyal customer......I was mis treated and will certanly not return!!!
I tried for two days to order a ALIVE doll but after hours on the computer and being billed for FOUR orders and no way to delete and being told to give my Number which I didn't remember I gave us and call Toys R Us and got my order without and problems disgusted with Target. I did pay $2 more because it wasn't on sale. But it was worth it. Also, for some reason the Super Target in Savage, Minnesota has what looks like a homeless person with about a 12" long skinny beard working in the produce department without a beard net or gloves. I observed this person on a recent visit, stroking the full length of his beard with his hands and then he proceeded to stock fresh produce on the shelves. YUK!!!
The store manager must think there's nothing wrong with that. I will not buy any produce from any Target store after this incident. I have been trying for a half hour to simply order two oven mitts, and it won't let me check out. You already have my registratrion and my credit card info, but every time I try to checkout it won't even take me there. This is Christmas. I deserve better treatment than this. I won't ever use target on line if this isn't fixed.
I purchased the Playskool Sesame Playset along with anothe item for my son a few weeks ago at Target.com for Christmas. At the time, Target.com offered the best price in comparison to other stores- only $19.00. Last Monday I received the other item in a box with a packing slip reflecting that the playset was inside too, however the playset was not inside. I contacted the customer service provided on the website and was specifically informed that the playset would arrive on December 6, 2012 and that unfortunately there was not a tracking number, however the associate could "see that it was on its way." I trusted Target because I've always thought that they were a great store and a a great reputation. I never received the playset, so I called customer service again on December 9th and spoke to "Jay." I was informed by "Jay" that the playset was lost. I stated that now the playset is $16.90 at Target.com but unavailable and unavailable at all nearby stores. I was never informed that the item was lost via email, never refunded, nothing. The phone kept breaking up and I asked "Jay" if he was located in the U.S., and he informed me that he was in the Philippines. I repeatedly asked for his last name and he would not provide it. I attempted to contact another representative but had no luck. So Target, not only do you provide POOR customer service, you did not compensate me (the customer) and you outsource. Target I expected more from you considering I just spent $170.00 at my local Target on Friday evening on groceries and gifts and I shop at Target on a regular basis, registered with Target for my baby shower and bridal shower. You have lost a loyal customer and I will take my money elsewhere.
I sent a note approximately a week ago regarding my attempt to return 2 halloween masks at Target in Forest Lake, Mn. I realized that I did not provide the correct email address. The correct address is LAB44F@aol.com. In brief summary my note stated that the problem was they said they did not take returned masks. I had bought these two the day after halloween and returned them the next day along with my receipt. They claimed that had a no return policy posted. I never saw it and these masks were with all the other halloween merchandise. My receipt did not show that these items we considered final sale. I expect Target to take back my masks and refund my money. Please let me know when I can expect to receive my refund. I was disappointed to see that Target employees were unwilling to cooperate on this issue.
To whom it may concern, I am writing in regards to your employee. I had an issue with your on-line order and I found her to be condescending, with no business sense.
She informed me that I had reached the highest level, in one phone call, to address this issue and she wasn't budging from her position regardless of the consequences to her or to your company. What should have said, 'Hmm let me check into this issue and find out why this situation happened.' May I get back with you in a couple of days? This is how a supervisor should 'handle' customers.
Again, I only ordered one product and I am clueless as to how two were shipped with two different addresses. This is an error on the online purchase for I DID NOT purchase the item that was sent to Keller. By this I mean I only clicked the final purchase button ONCE!
Miss informed me that there was a confirmation sent to me and that I had 30 minutes to resend an order that I did not place. However I placed the order and left the computer for 3 or so hours. I believe I called back at 4 pm central time and the nice woman said she would attempt to cancel the order but if not just send it back for a full credit.
I thought, well since I have it I could give it as a gift to a new mother even though it is not on her register. But after speaking to I was going to return the item because of her haughty spirit. Fortunately, for Target, I called a different number and your professional employee Bismark took care of the issue.
Nevertheless, this is a formal complaint that I want escalated and apply to personnel record. She has no business working with the public. If she continues to do so I suggest she obtain a life coach to assist her manner of dealing with the public.
This employee, according to her, is the highest level within your company for order issues. How did she get to a position of supervisor with inferior public relation skills? Dealing with the public needs an individual like Bismark, a person with more understanding and good business sense.
Target is fortunate that Bismark, who handled the ordeal with great finesse, did what they should have done from the get go! I suggest you demote to an area that never interacts with customers.
Ordered a couch on 10/24 from target.com. The original delivery date emailed to me was 10/29. I got an email on 10/27 saying: delayed until 11/4. I am now much more frustrated after receiving another email on 10/30 saying that it will be delivered on 11/7. I opted to cancel and buy locally. Fumbled around the link emailed to me a couple of hours earlier. No success in canceling my order.. Called customer service and learned that contrary to an email received hours ago, I can't cancel. Target really needs to get their online ordering act together!
Customer service was pleasant, but useless. Tried to email my complaint (almost exactly what I'm writing here) through target.com. Hit submit, and it told me to please enter a valid question or concern! Ha! Apparently my frustration isn't valid to them. This will be my last order! I recommend avoiding target.com.
I ordered a sark razor scooter online at target.com on sale plus I had a coupon. UPS returned the item back to target.com because it was damaged intransit. I was never contacted about this issue. The item is out of stock online but available at my local store. The price is now $159 NOT $122 and my coupon has expired. Target should honor the price I purchased it at and let me pick up my purchase at my local store. They will not. I will be canceling my red card and will no longer shop at target!
I went to target today at Queens Place (8801 Queens Blvd, Elmhurst NY 11373) to purchase "3 cube bench" from CLOSETMAID for $ 59. I also wanted to get 3 fabric bins to insert at the button of the bench, so I picked 3 of them for $ 9 each from a company called ITSO. Since I wanted to make sure that they will fit inside the bench, I asked a worker in the floor in that same area where I picked up the merchandises if those bin would have fit into the cubes and she replayed yes, without even check the items. Since I didn't want to come back I asked again "Are you sure they will fit, because I don't want to come back and return them" and she replied again "yes", with an annoyed attitude. When I came home and put the bench together I realized that the 3 cubes in the bench were too small for the fabric bin and I was frustrated. I called the store to tell them my ordeal and the first time the person I was talking to hanged up the phone on me. I called back and asked to speak to a supervisor after I told my story again so I was put on hold. When a female came on the phone she stated that she was the supervisor so I told her my story again and she replied that she was sorry and to return the items when I had the chance. I told her that was not enough since the purchase I made was done based on her workers guidelines so another person (a male this time with an Indian accent) picked up the phone stated that he was the manager and told me that "people make mistakes" so it was nothing that he could do and just for me to come and return the items and hang up the phone on me again.
I find this very disrespectful and unprofessional, especially after I spend $ 100 with tax at the store. Furthermore, for you not to have a general complain line were the personal that work for target can be reported for the way they mistreat their customer is absolutely inadmissible. Lastly and more importantly none of the people that came to the phone said what it was truly needed, that they would have in-service the staff better to ensure this does not happen again.
i bought a ipod nano for my granddaughter on september 24, before the 30 days it quit.. could not find the sales reciept until a few days after the 30 days were up. granddaugther took the nano back to the store and they refused to do anything because it was after 30 days. they said it was past the 30 days and they couldn't scan it.. duhhh if i had taken it back before the 30 days has i been able to find the reciept, they still couldn't scan it.. i paid over 120.00 for this and they are telling me too bad !!!! it is a drop in the bucket for them and a small fortune to me. so i am stuck with it ,my graddaughter dosen't have a nano and target has the money ...good job target.. shame on you. you have lost a least two customers over this. and don't think i won't tell everyone i can.
Recently I applied for employment with your store in High Point, NC. On April 2, 2012 I walked into the store and filled out the necessary information on the computer system. Soon afterwards I was interviewed by 2 people. At that point I was told to expect a telephone call.
On April 2, 2012 I received a telephone call from a woman named Princess. She left a voice mail asking me to return her call and schedule a time to come in on Monday, April 9, 2012.
I called and spoke to Princess, who let me know to come in on Wendsday, April 11, 2012 at 10:00am. I arrive on that date and time and went to the customer service desk. There I was told to take a computer survey, which I did.
After completing the survey I approached customer service and was told to wait in the food court. Princess approached me in the food court and asked me if I'd already interviewed. I explained that I did and she apologized saying that my application was still pending.
She was confused as to why I was there. I explained that she had scheduled me to be there at that time, using the details I listed above. She claimed that the voicemail I had heard was an 'Old voicemail'. I did not confront her about this. She further said that Target was still accepting applications and that I would receive a phone call.
I hope that if I am called back, it is not by Princess. Her insinuation that I cannot recognize and operate voicemail or that I may of heard conversations wrong is insulting. I would suggest that the Target Corporation find more qualified people to operate the hiring process.
On the 14th of September, I placed an order through the .com/website. I rec'd an email from Target.com immediately after completing my order, confirming the order, providing me with an order # and an estimated delivery date for my order. The estimated delivery date was from 9/20 to 9/22/11. Today is 9/29, and I have not yet rec'd the order. I attempted to look up the order status on line, which did not work.
I phoned the number listed for customer service, was eventually connected to a young woman who could barely speak English, and who proceeded to tell me that "due to the fact that we have a "bad computer", the order ended-up in Target's "junk pile", and therefore, "will not yet been filled." I beg your pardon, but I am writing to you from the ordering computer, which is a 2011 MacBook, used by me exclusively. She was rude, did nothing to help the situation, interms of apologies, no offer to re-order and expedite my shipping due to my inconvenience, and then disconnected the call.
If you truly do record calls for quality assurance, whom, may I ask, listens to them? I had to call back, the first woman had deleted my original order, and we had to start from scratch. This employee spoke perfect English, but asked me to repeat every single thing I said, at least once. She was slow, not very accommodating, and again, no offers to ship my order more quickly due to the inconvenience.
If we did not truly need the book cases that I ordered, trust me, I would NOT re-order them. Going forward, I will be much more judicial about trusting Target.com with my money, my order and my time. Target stores are exemplary, in my opinion, but your online ordering system is pitiful, at best. This whole situation has cost me over one hour of my time today, we've waited two + weeks for a non-existant order to arrive, and never rec'd any communication from Target to say that the items should be re-ordered due to a problem on your end.
And yet, I receive at least one email every two days from Target, telling me what to buy/what's on sale, etc. Wow. Good luck to you - you need it!
I went to 1 of 2 Targets in Fremont Ca and purchased an item from the freezer department. 2 Weeks later I went to the other Target and picked up other items than I went to the freezer department to get the item that I purchased from the first Target, and to my surprise they did not cary it so I put the items back on the shelf and went to the first Target. I-picked up my items than I went to get my last item on my list witch was baked lays potato chips to my surprise they did cary theme witch Target number 2 cared, so at this point I put everything back and went to a competitor and got all of my items at 1 store, it would be nice if i knew that i could depend on target to be consistent so that we don't have to wast gas running from Target to Target witch i wont do again.
I noticed again today (2/4/15-- 11:34 am) the same two employees laughing and making fun at customers in the Vestal, NY target store in Vestal Plaza. These are two Male employees: one tall and the other shorter. They were in or working around the customers in the return section in the front of store, on the left when you walk in, and this was not the first time they were doing this.
I am totally fed up with the 5715 North 15 Ave Target store in Phoenix AZ! I just purchased a LG 442 cell phone on 1/31/2015 that simply does not work properly and as usual at least two of my prescription monthly refills were never even filled again this month!!! I am a 77 year old disabled senior citizen living on social security and I cannot afford endless costly trips back and forth to this Target Store until Target Finally Gets It Right!...Nor can I afford to go without two vital prescription refills that without them this could in fact kill me! Every Month this Target Pharmacy screws up royally! And is clearly the poorest pharmacy in the world to deal with as well. Furthermore Target Electronics failed to make sure the LG 440 Cellphone worked properly before they sold it to me in the first place! This is clearly the worst and most incompetent store that I have ever tried to deal with in my 77 years of life! So,I will simply move my prescriptions to a totally different pharmacy and never even try to purchase any type of cellphones or other electronics from Target! Please help Boycott Target Out Of Business! Target Frankly You Suck Big Time!
You cannot beat the prices and deals at target. It is an amazing store that has just about everything that you need. The lines are never long and the employees are always helpful. It’s a great store to go to especially on Black Friday with all their deals.
I signed up for a Baby Registry at Target. The majority of the time I try to go on (and I go on often), I have issues and get error messages. I wish I knew before hand prior to choosing Target for my Baby Registry. It is awful....Always get a message about the registry having issues and to try again later. I would not recommend Target as a baby Registry to anyone ever.
Target t-2240 Nashville , Tennessee. When I first started I cashiered for a week, then I was placed over at target cafe/food ave . The cafe was cool for a while. Learning new stuff, some I knew. The team members were/are really nice. We have here recently gotten a lot of new team leads. They used to move me around to different workcenters around the store such as cashier, guest service , hardlines, recently softlines. I feel like I work very well over there . I’ve gotten a few compliments that I do a great job folding tables. Now I’m stuck back at the target cafe. I used to not mind working over there but, not so much anymore. I only get scheduled 5.50 hours, which means that I get a 15 min break. If I do it’s 30mins before the end of my shift . Most of the time I don’t even get a break at all. I may get a 7 hour shift one a week. In which, I get a 30 min meal break but I normally have to wait 5 to. 5.50 hours before I get to go. I always have to go find a team member or team lead to cover my break. They never come over to check on us. If we need a change request or additional help. It takes them a while to come over, depending on who’s working. Some of our GSA/GSTL’s are great & come right over, some of them never want to come over for a break or anything. When I don’t get my break, then I don’t get to eat. I get a headache, feel nauseous, feel like I have to vomit . I have sometimes. I know your not supposed to be over there when your sick. They wonder why I and/or other team members go home early. The 1st year at the cafe my hands were fine. The 2nd year they started itching , I just thought it was dry skin. For about a month now, when I’m over at the cafe . My hands start itching & burning constantly, I have to run them under cold water for them to keep from burning . They do it every time I’m over there. I’ve talked to several of the team leads about this but, they just don’t seem to understand. They just tell you what you wanna hear. Saying that they don’t have enough coverage , when there is 4 other team members that work over there. I have talked to my doctor about this & he said I shouldn’t be over there because , of my hands burning so severely. I have pictures that I have shown the team leads. They said oh wow, you shouldn’t be over there then. They continue to schedule me over there, & continue scheduling me 5.50 hours. So I hardly ever get to eat, therefore I always end up getting sick, nauseous, vomiting. I’ve noticed on my day(s) off that I feel fine not sick, but when I’m working there I feel puny & weak . I’m sure that I’m allergic to the sanitizer water, popcorn oil & salt. Whether I’m scooping up a bag of popcorn or cleaning the machine & kettle at night, washing dishes. It always irritates my skin. I guess I’m just gonna have to get a handwritten doctors note with the pictures attached for them to believe me. I just felt the need to address this matter & let you all know. Thank you so much, Samantha Spence
I visited Target at Austin East on 3/16/14 and used my bank card and the next morning I was receiving phones call from my banks fraud department that my credit card number had been stolen. I had only used my card at Target. I would like this issue to be addressed. I have been a very happy customer up to this point and now I question doing bussiness with Target.

Why do you have a ad in Spanish and English on English speaking TV? You can produce and run Spanish speaking ads on Spanish TV channels. If I wanted to hear Spanish spoken I would listen to a Spanish channel. My heartiage is German are you running your ads in German any time soon? Bet not! Last time I checked it is United States of America not Mexico!! Keep the ads in English on English channels.
Today, May 6 2013, my mother, daughter, and I visited Target in Corpus Christi, TX. We have come into this Target numerous times and buy several items throughout the year at this specific location. Today, after visiting the entire store, we decided to go through the Jewelry Department. We looked at the sunglasses first. My 3 year old daughter liked the one pair of rainbow sunglasses, so she put them on, under my supervision. Immediately a lady whom was working in the department came up to us and told us that the children sunglasses were located at the other end of the sunglass aisle, but I told her we were just
looking. The lady just rolled her eyes and walked pasted us.
My daughter then made her way over to the jewelry that was displayed along the wall. She was carefully looking at the jewelry and was not in anyway being disrespectful. As soon as she was done looking we walked by the lady who was working in this department, she looked at me and said, “Guess I will go and clean up what she messed up over here”.
I looked behind me to see what she was talking about and noticed that ONE necklace was not hung up on its designated hook and she huffed and placed it correctly onto the hook. I told her that she barely messed up anything. I walked on with my daughter into the purses and hats. The lady then said to us, “If you would like to make a complaint about me go ahead…but, I do not work for Target.
I am just here cleaning up the merchandise.” I guess she worked as a vendor, I am not sure. She was working “for Target” if not being directly paid “by Target”. She was represented Target, and therefore should respect the customers. My mother then decided that she should be brought to the manager’s attention. As my mother was speaking to the manager about what had just occurred, this “non Target employee lady” came up and said…”is she complaining about me”?
My mother said, “Yes, and you had no right to be rude to us”. This lady turned and looked at my mother and said, “I was not rude”! My mother said, “Yes you were”. And the lady said, “No, I wasn’t. You should keep a closer eye on your children”! The manager at this location did apologize for this lady’s actions and did state that she would have a conversation with her.
We do not feel that this lady had any right to treat us the way she did, and even though she specifically stated she was a Target employee, she was working in the store. She made our visit feel very unwelcomed and I do plan to do my shopping elsewhere in the future. This is unfortunate because I do like Target and its merchandise well. However, shopping experience out weighs the merchandise on many levels.
I hope that Target does ask this lady to not come and represent them in the future. She was a very rude and disrespectful woman whom I hope I never had the displeasure to meet again.
Sincerely,
Lisa
I purchased a Target gazebo on June 24, 2012. On October 5, 2012 it rained and the roof collapsed. I went to store and they had clearanced the gazebo. Manager said to come back in spring and exchange. I came back and Target said that the problem was so common the company would no longer carry gazebos. Told me to call customer service. They said to call the company that gazebo came with one year warranty. Company told me none of their gazebos have a warranty. So I am out of luck. Daughter having wedding in backyard in a month. You would think someone would be willing to help.
I want to complain about target cashiers at 4433 s Pulaski rd in Chicago Illinois . The cashiers are being rude and mean towards people buying stuff with coupons treating me and others as criminals and also getting nasty to the point where I felt attacked and sad. I have never been treated so bad at another store. Please fix the attitude and also teach the coupon policy to them, I will pass a bad review about the cashiers at this location.
Thank you.
i would love to shop at target but they have only 2 handicap carts. one the battery is dead and the other is with another disabled. i go once a week just to see if i can get a motorized cart and end up leaving. why don’t they have more of these carts? i have heard other disabled people say they can’t shop there because of lack of the motorize carts.
I tried on line to purchase from my niece’s baby registry. After 6 hours you were having technical; difficulties. So then I tried to purchase on tele#800-591-3869. I called 4 times. Central America(shame on you) can’t give USA the jobs. When I tried to place my order, I was hung up on 4 times. Communication was pathetic. No questions could be answered by them because they knew nothing about the product. I have a red card CREDIT CARD. We will close this card down and look for shopping elsewhere. I only wanted 2 items at $65.00. I purchase on line frequently and have never experienced such time comsuming ignorance.

after she ring my order up I used my target credit card to pay the bill, the cashier handed my copy of the order, I did not have to sign for the order, and she did not ask for my ID!!!, what stops anybody from useing my card and runnuing up a big bill?, I will use other ways to pay for my order, maybe your company will change there ways and make you sign for your order and ask for some ID.
Target store complaint department, I am extremely hurt and dissatisfied with an experience I had at the east side target store in Evansville, In. I had inquired with the manager there about some $1.00 metal pail buckets they had in the $1.00 section.
I needed at least 150 od them for my daughters up coming wedding I was so pleased to find them after a long search on line and many stores to my surprise I walked in target and saw exactly what I wanted . I asked to see a manager and see if I could get a discount for large quanity.
He said they did not allow that. but he said they could be considered Easter and to check back Monday morning. I planned for a babysitter so I would not be late and got to the store before doors opened. I found the buckets and they were not marked on sale but I took one to a clerk and asked her to check she said no they are not considered easter and are not 30% off.
They had many more thaan I needed so thought I would check the north side target the mext evening to get all the same color I purchased 40 at the east side and new I could get many more. So I did go the north side and they had none so I went back to the east side first thing on Thursday to my surprise all the pails were gone they had gone to 70% off and someone had purchased all of them we called many local targets all were out.
Im so upset that no one knew they were Easter and why they were not marked down on Monday and went to 70% off on wed. now I have no wedding favors the manager sais there was no way to know they would go on sale and I know I should have purchased them at 1.00 but when they said they were not considerd Easter I figured I had time to get them on thursay my nest day off they had several 100 I just wish I had known…. please try to find them for me. dee
Target has longed been my preference for general shopping over Walmart, etc. my local Target store (at Rockwell & NW Hwy in Oklahoma City) has changed that opinion. In the past year the store has gone down hill in customer service and management. The employees are not friendly and do not offer assistance at the level Target normally exemplifies. On a recent visit, when a cashier mistakenly rang up an item twice on my ticket, I was told I would need to go stand in line at customer service to have the amount taken off my ticket. And she didn’t even say, “I’m sorry!” Today, I along with several other people, stood in Lin at the Starbucks in Targert for 10 minutes waiting for someone to show up to take our order. Another Target employee finally happened to walk by and said, “Oh, we’re sorry but the only person in the store today who can run Starbucks is at lunch right now!” As ridiculous as this is, at least put up a sign saying “Closed”!?!? I am about done with this store for good.
Last night, when checking out at Target in Chico, Ca, I was astonished when I was asked for my ID when purchasing a bottling of wine. It was one item among numerous others in my cart. Being close to 60 years old, I was not as offended for having to show my ID as I was when the cashier made me take it our of my wallet and then swiped it. What is that about? I must say I was pretty taken back and will reconsider shopping with your company in the future, especially for alcohol. I have never experienced anything like that in any other retail establishment.
I would appreciate a response as to why this policy is in place.
Sincerely,
Pam Ayoob
Have feedback for Target?
Thanks for your feedback!
Sorry. Please try again later!
