HSN return policy sucks

HSN will not accept returns that were Christmas gifts if you purchased them prior to October 1st. That's insane! I can return things to QVC, Kohls, Penneys, etc. with no problem as long as it is returned in January and have done so. They are sending my items back to me. It's stupid of them to lose a customer and pay for return shipping (and I used their return label so they've paid to send it twice) rather than give me a refund. I've canceled my membership and will no longer order from them. I suggest anyone else be careful about doing their Christmas shopping early, or any shopping with HSN.

I ordered aKeith Urban 50-piece Deluxe PLAYER Acoustic-Electric Guitar Pack
on 4/23/16 and tried to cancel the order on 4/24/16. The order has not shipped and according to the site it is being packaged. I was told that I am not able to cancel, it must be done by midnight the day of the order. I was not aware of this policy. I was told that I need to wait for the order to be received and then pay to return it. I find this a very poor return policy.

I stopped shopping there last year. I only shop QVC and ShopNBC now. It was the best thing I ever did. I have saved SOOOO much money! I think that is a few years HSN is going to spiral downward, they have burnt so many once loyal customers.

i hate HSN, it is a hack shopping site, I hope they crash soon, They have over priced crap. I have seen the same things if not better quality in the stores for less money. They charge a small fortune in shipping and tax, add up all you have spent in shipping on HSN, you may stop buying with them. I hate the CS, they are condescending. Most of the time it is an HSN glitch that causes problem but they make the consumer suffer. Try to shop less and less at this place. QVC is so much better, with a higher quality control

HSN not honorable

Purchased a pocket video camera from HSN and because I purchased it more than 30 days before Christmas, they refused to exchange or allow me to return it for a refund. Personally in this time of lost jobs, lost homes and higher prices - I think that a policy that causes people who put faith in a company to be out of their hard-earned money and to be left with unusable products is shameful and dishonest. Kmart has an extended return policy which allows you to return substandard items and products for up to 6 months in most cases. While I don't expect a company like HSN do be that generous, I do think that 30 days on an item purchased as a Christmas gift and that is clearly defective should be handled in a customer friendly way. Every place I can lodge a complaint will hopefully over time put a place like HSN out of business. This is a company that has no concern for their customers and which clearly do not stand by their products - many which are substandard. This is the second item I've purchased from HSN that has not worked. A margarita maker had to be thrown in the trash. After using it only three times, it just stopped working. I didn't bother to deal with HSN about that as I had it for over a year but clearly HSN is selling crappy products. My suggestion: utilize stores and websites that offer more generous return/exchange policies, do a little web surfing and check out places that lodge complaints about businesses before giving them your money. HSN's prices are not the best. After looking around, I found the same camera for cheaper somewhere else and the price I paid could have purchased a pocket video camera from a better known name brand like Sony or Kodak. As consumers, we are the ones who keep places like HSN in business but we have the power to render them useless when they don't treat their paying cumstomers with honesty, courtesy and respect.

On sept 30 i purchased ring with protection plan they had charged my acct. and now i was waiting for the protection plan in writing in mail. I didn’t get the protection plan as of yet in writing so i called and they couldn’t find the order # which they sent me in e-mail. so now i see they charged my acct again so i called and the supervisor said she found the original order # but how convenient the other people couldn’t find it when i called 10 times about issue but she stilled charged my acct again for the money. i want everyone to know that they are a rip off as she said she never charged my acct for it and they did because i was charged 164.35 that day and that was including the protection plan i will never shop with them again and just beware if you do that you may get charged 2 times for something.and the supervisor and the cust service people don’t know what they are doing.

HSN stay away

I placed an order on 11/26 for a Todd English 14" Paella Green Pan-An HSN Exclusive-as of this date 12/16 I still do not have it as UPS CANNOT deliver to a PO Box-During the ordering process, I had a specific discussion as to sending it to my PO Box as the last time I sent to the alternate, it never made it-NO mention was made as to a problem with a UPS/PO Box conflict-Strike 1-on 12/13 I called customer service and was told to wait a few more days-no mention again as to the UPS/PO Box conflict &"Since It Was Sent By Mail There Is NO Tracking Number"-Strike 2-today12/16, I again called Customer Service where lo & behold I was told it was returned 12/14 because of the inability to deliver-I was told the earliest I could get a replacement was 12/22-like it was a favor-This evidently did not take into account that after 20days I would NOT have the item to give as a gift at the "Out of State" party I was to attend this weekend-NO overnight shipping was available even after I offered to pay extra-STRIKE 3 - The attempt to register this complaint at the HSN website was also met with futility- would welcome a legitimate response, not an empty apology as to why I should even consider doing business ever again with HSN again.

Should make a good story at the party though.

HSN security question bs

I ordered a tv and placed it on my cc with the 4 payment flex payment option. I had more than enough credit available. I noticed two days later that the same item was now only available with 1 or 2 payment option. On day 3 after I placed the order, I received a call from their security department. They told me that because I chose to ship to another address other than my own, I would have to answer some security questions. I agreed. The first question asked was who my auto loan was with. I don not have an auto loan nor have I had one in over 25 years, so I answered does not apply. Whom do you do your banking with? I answered none of the above because the did not list the bank I have my 15 year account with! They asked for the last 4 numbers in my ssn. All the numbers they read to me started with 5. Mine starts with 7 so of course I answered none of the above. And the best one is when they named 4 persons who may have lived with me in the past 10 years. I have lived in the same home for over 18 years, and I would think that I would know who lived with me, BUT HOW WOULD THEY KNOW! THIS IS BS.
OH WHATS NEXT! WHAT COLOR UNDERWEAR WAS I WEARING WHEN I PLACED MY ORDER? THESE QUESTIONS ARE BS
OF COURSE I FAILED... AND THEY LOCKED MY ACCOUNT.
This has to be by design. I placed the order, using their "secure website" I typed in the address I wanted the item shipped to when I placed the order. This make no sense with one exception. It sounds like they did a credit check, didn't like what they saw, and cancelled my purchase. I said to them, well just ship it to my home address, and they said because I failed their security questions my account is locked and cannot be changed.
I will be looking into this to see if this is legal and if they can be sued. I know what my credit is. If they stated that purchases are based on a credit check I wouldn't have ordered anything from them.

Wow, , , , , , , , , , , , The SAME EXACT THING happened to me. I placed an order for a flat screen tv ( LG), and a wall mount for it . They shipped the wall mount, yet not the tv . Unlike your case, NO ONE called me though . I called them 4 days later to ask why my tv wasn't shipped and they gave me the same as they did you. 2 security tests, which they say I failed twice, then told me to call back today and speak to a security supervisor ( JOSE ) . So I call back today and this very rude SOB acts like someone did HIM wrong. He then goes on to blame his " Vendors" for the obscene delay, and tells me he can do nothing more for me . What? HSN has "frozen" my account, therefore I cannot place another order until this ISSUE is resolved . Jose however shows no regard or interest in promptly rectifying this.

I TOO am just livid!

This was supposed to be used for my Christmas party . Believe it or not one rep went as far as to tell me that maybe I " Could go to Aarons and rent a tv, until your HSN one arrives ", , , , , , , , WTF!?

Words can't describe my feelings right now.

HSN scam

HSN cancels purchase because they say they had the wrong expiration date, so therefore I lost my purchase which sold out and was a special value with free shipping on easy pay.

The promo was a $20 discount on first purchase when opening a new CC account. I was approved and the account was linked instantly so the purchase went through. A few days later I looked at my order to see the CC was denied? I called HSN and they blamed the bank. I called the bank, they blamed HSN. Something involving the expiration date, but I did not have my card since this all was in one process, and this was an immediate purchase. If this is a glitch in their system, I wonder how many other customers got duped into opening a new account. HSN has my phone number and email and they never contacted me either, but even so, I did not know what the expiration date was as it hadn't arrived yet so this was between the bank and HSN.

I called the bank after losing my purchase and canceled the card, and called HSN to let them know I no longer want to be a customer.

HSN is trying to collect money from me for certain installments and Comenity bank is collecting the same money for the same merchandise. I have never missed a statement Payment in 10 years and they are both wanting money for the same items. A scam that is for sure.

I feel duped by HSN just like you! I only wished I came across your story first before placing my order! I originally purchased a tv from them. Upon receiving it was damaged. So i had it sent back and waited for my replacement. A couple days after sending back I decided I no longer wanted this order fulfilled. I wanted to cancel it all together. I didn't want a replacement/exchange, just my refund. Well for some reason, when I called to check status of the order so I can cancel it, I was told so many Bulls*** as to nothing can be done because updates on their system hasn't been updated and nothing is showing on my account. They were waiting for vendor to update their system first so they can see exactly where about the order was at in the process. Toile a long aggravating story short, I was unable to cancel that replacement shipment even tho at the time I had called to cancel, it was not already packaged but still sitting in the warehouse! Now I'm expected to receive a product I no longer want and pay for the return shipping because I don't plan on keeping the tv. Just a waste of time and effort for me. Never will I buy anything from HSN again. Their shady customer service and order processing methods are all a big scam to get your money one way or the other. Very disappointing service I received this time in the years I been a loyal customer. No longer do I support HSN and their poor business tactics. It's a shame.

HSN duped me into opening one of their credit cards when I ordered a Christmas gift for my husband. They gave me a $20.00 discount which seemed like a good deal... Well they guaranteed Christmas delivery on the item so since I hadn't received it yet I decided to call them today and find out where it was in transit. Guess what?! They "over-sold" the item and it is now back ordered, will not be delivered by Christmas and if they are unable to get it back into inventory by Jan. 17th the order will be cancelled. I asked them when they were planning on contacting me with this information to which they replied that they didn't have my email address on record. Funny they were able to email me a 15% off your next purchase from HSN coupon code the same day I made the purchase! I will be cancelling the worthless HSN credit card that I have NO intentions of ever using. First and last experience with HSN was NOT a good one. Customer service manager offered me an apology and a $5.00 credit to my account - WOW how generous considering now I need to find another Christmas gift for my husband in the next 24 hours...

HSN fraud!!!

Home shopping network is a complete fraud!

I started the order process on 9/16/10... My order was cancelled... Nobody at hsn knows why but yet the money was taken from my account. I reordered several times and spoke with several supervisors who all assured me they would fix the problem but each supervisor had a different excuse for why the order was cancelled. Today is 10/9/10 and my last order placed was again cancelled! Today the reason is different from all other reasons.

These people don't have a clue what is going on. Maybe they are working with the banks to hold your money hostage because at one point they had held 4 times the amount they were supposed to hold and then you have to wait (In my case one week) before your funds are available but yet your order was cancelled.

Crooks, crooks, banksters crooks. Don't order from hsn. They are frauds. They apparently didn't want to honor their television ad and make it so difficult for you that you give up. Not me I am reporting them to ag/doj/fbi.

HSN late fees

Anyone dealing with hsn who is financed through wfcb needs to be aware that they need to mail a check at least 10 days before a payment is due because you will not be given credit for a payment on the day they get the check; but rather on the day that your check clears your bank. This is a scam and is done to collect late fees on unsuspecting customers. The big banks get a reputation for a reason and I will cancel my account so the thieves don't get any more of my money.

HSN misinformed re applying for hsn shopping card

called to order item thru HSN television. was immediately told I was
pre-approved for HSN Shopping card. was asked DOB, and last 4
digits of SS#. then immediately told I was approved for $4, 500 line
of credit. the item I ordered was $179. shocked by the amount of
credit I was approved for said NO...I did not want that. then told
it was already issued by World Financial Capital Bank and HSN had
no authority to cancel. told to call WFB closed at that time and take
the matter up with them. If HSN had informed me that I was
applying to a Banking Institution I never would have consented.
I will call the bank to cancel...but now will have an Inquiry counted
against my credit score.
I feel they tricked me by not explaining clearly that this card is
not a product of HSN...but an unknown by me financial institution.
I called several times to talk to HSN supervisors to correct this...and
they said they could not do anything. It was now in the hands of the
Bank. These are sneak tactics by Credit Card Banks in my view.
HSN should not offer a credit card to me in their name and not
mention a bank that they do business with to grant customers a
credit card that is called Home Shopping Club...and not the rest
of the process.
I will need to call WFB later today and go through needless
stress and explanation. It's a small matter in my case, but
I feel I must complain because it was sneaky on the part of HSN.
I have shopped many times over the years w/them and when I
call in they already have a record of my phone #, etc. They know my
age is 75 and can take advantage of an elderly person by making it
sound like I was eligible for the card...so therefore I applied not
realizing what I was getting myself in for.

HSN poor electrical products/service

I agree totally with all of the complaints. I also purchased ultrex convection oven and it caught on fire. Hsn sells horrible electrical products. The only thing that still works is the joy m. My little steamer. The ultrex product line is simply garbage. I will never buy anything that plugs in from hsn. Better yet, they have permanently lost a longtime customer. I don't even watch the channel anymore so I won't be tempted. I will check with my attorney friend to see how to start a class action lawsuit against hsn. Their advertising says these are the "last" pots and pans you'll ever have to buy. Yeah that's true is you die within the next year or two. Pure garbage. Will keep all posted. If someone else files one, please contact me at [protected]@yahoo.com. Again, I think it should be against hsn since ultrex is probably somewhere else selling cookware under another name. Also, when I returned a broken item, they sent me one that had been used and returned by someone else. Just horrible!

I agree their service is a total garbage! I tried to order their kindle fire and ordered other products on flex pay they said it was fine but when I went to order the kindle fire it would not take my card. So I canceled the ordered but they asked me for another card and that went through. Then my wife called to find out about that order they were rude to her and would not answer her. So she wanted to cancel the order and not ever buy from HSN any more. Their customer service is very bad and well the products are not really worth what they charge you for. They make the products look good on TV but when you get it home they all fall apart. Especially their cosmetics or creams products they will sell it to you at a very high price and the jars are very small. But when you get it home they are no more better than your average drug store brand. You are probablly better off buying from Wal-Mart and spending a lot less for the same products that HSN will charge you for at a much higher price! So now on I learned the hard way that these HSN people are nothing but a bunch of FRAUDS! DO NOT BUY FROM HSN!

HSN broken promises about broken glasses

When I bought a set of what I thought were budget glasses from HSN, a product by Joy Mangano's Ingenious Designs, all I got was a lot of broken promises. HSN promise to resolve the problem by sending another pair but this has turned out to be a lie time and time again. As far as Ingenious designs from HSN who in partnership with them can't contact the how do they expect I can. Oprah recommended this product in her "O" magazine, maybe she can afford to take the loss if something she buys is defective but I can't. I just one a replacement pair of reading glasses.

I called customer service and I got about four pairs replaced during the 12 month warranty period. I had to take a picture of the broken glasses and email it to them. Got the replacements in a weeks time. The last pair I called about was right after Christmas and a huge box was sent. I opened the box and found a mop with an additional mop head. I called customer service to let them know and was told to keep the mop and they sent out the replacement glasses next day. Very pleased with their customer service department.

HSN bad business practices

I am unable to order any items from hsn because my address has been blocked from ordering. Apparently someone else at this address owes hsn a lot of money, and it is their policy to block thae address from ordering to protect themselves. However, I live in an apartment building in nyc with over 70 apts. I gave tthem my apt # to show this. However, while the supervisor I spoke with sympathized with me, he said they would try to get the block removed for me, which would take 3 to 5 business days — but could not make any guarantees. I feel that this policy is very strange and quite unfair to those of us living in apts.

Have filed several complaints from the BBB, Atty Gen Offices (FL, CA, TX), and with the USPS (postal inspector - mail theft). When I told HSN I was also disputing chrages with credit card company - they stated if I did so, I would not be allowed to shop with them anymore -how ridiculous is that statement? I also filed a complaint with Acer, as I feel that HSN's policy severely reflects on the brands they advertise and sell on their network.

I had the same issue with HSN; when I tried to sign in, I could not because of a mix-up of password, etc. I then called and talked
to Sales Associate. She changed my shipping and billing address over the phone and gave me a temporary password so I could
now enter and complete order. I went ahead with this and changed both shipping and billing address again. After I submitted
order, I received note re Colorado state tax. Since my new address was in Arizona, I knew there was a problem. Contacted HSN
and sure enough, they had sent order to Colorado. Not understanding this error, I requested that shipping costs be reimbursed
and they said no. I sent 3 more e-mails and they would not address my problem. I asked to talk to a Manager or someone in
charge over a week ago and I never heard another word from HSN. What bad service! Be careful if you try to change something on your account and don't trust talking to a live person either.

HSN ultrex cookware

I bought 2 sets of ULTREX cookware from HSN. One had a 50 year warranty the other a 75 year warranty. HSN touted this cookware as the last cookware you'd ever have to buy. The stuff is crap.The handles are falling apart, the non-stick surface is peeling off and getting in food. HSN didn't do their due diligence in checking out this vendor or product.
I only bogught this stuff becasue of the HSN promise that it would last a lifetime.

If there is a class action lawsuit please count me in.

I returned a computer router to HSN within 7 days of receiving it viaUSPS. Didn't hear from them, they can't find my return. Didn't use tracking nor insurance. Dumb me. So i'm out $95 plus $9 postal charge. I'm sure its sitting in a warehouse in Comptom California waiting to be processed.
The item in question is being sold for $20 less today at Wal-Mart. So I'm really a doofus.

Please, please, please people - stop shopping at HSN! Their products are substandard and their prices are not the lowest around. They have made a killing off of people who like shopping from home but they often buy low quality products, perform product deoms that convince the consumer their getting a great bargain but when you get the items, they usually don't work well or not at all! They don't stand by their products and have a 30 day return policy that's does nothing but stall for time until the time is up and then you can't return the item. Stores like Kmart have longer return policies and many of their online items can be returned right to the store for a refund or exchange. As part of the consumer public, I will never again buy from HSN. The pocket video camera I purchased for my niece for Christmas (in November) was refused to be returned or exchanged because it was over the 30 days limit. Now I had to deal with the manufacturer, who will more than likely send me a factory refurbished piece of crap that won't work for long - despite the fact that I paid the price for a "NEW" pocket cam. BUYERS BEWARE OF HSN - that great deal you think you're getting is probably a "dud in sheep's clothing"!

HSN todd english cookware

I purchased a set of todd english cookware from hsn. I foolowed all the suggested instructions on caring for this cookware. They are peeling and cannot be used because no matter what temperature you cook on everything burns! I contacted hsn and was told to contact ingenious designs which I did twice with no satisfaction although they advertise a warrenty with these products. Ingenious designs has never followed thru by contacting me. Now i'm stuck with nearly $200.00 of inferior product.

The Todd English Green pan became a "stick" pan after cooking green peppers and the sauce pan purchased in the $149.00 set discolored after warming Trader Joe's Carrot Soup. Tried boiling water in the pans several times and used the green cleaning pad, all to no avail.

Although heavier, should not haven given away my All-Clad. With these results, I question the safety of the pans that produced these chemical reactions all over medium heat...pans have never been used on high heat.

HSN - religious hate

HSN banned me from posting on their forums and reviews without any warning. They claim you get 3 warnings. I got none. They banned me for defending my Christian religion against hate postings, of which these posters were not banned. I was singled out by these anti-Christian posters. HSN allows anti-Christian remarks, but if you stand up for your Christian...
