Barnes & Noble Complaints - Inept customer “service”

Inept customer “service”
Complaint Rating:  0 % with 1 votes
Company information:
Barnes & Noble
United States

My advice is succinct: if you MUST use this company, be sceptical when you receive the "your shipment is ready to leave our warehouse" email. Check the UPS website routinely and make sure that UPS actually has received the package.

The idea that their online customer "service" may reply to messages "within 24 to 48 hours" is really a significant problem in this day and age.

I have been a happy (and generally loyal) customer of this firm for many years, but am really annoyed (and a little amazed) by their ineptitude, and am sorry to say that I won't be buying from them, either online or in their stores, ever again.

I hold issue with the Barnes and Noble store credit. I rarely shop in stores because the prices online are so much cheaper. On one such occasion, I was shopping online and ready to check out. I punched in the store credit card number (I had no idea at the time that they did not accept store credit online), and it was not accepted! I was forced to pay with credit card and then had to personally go to a Barnes and Noble store, the closest one being 14 miles away, and spend the remaining $40 of my store credit. Forget Barnes and Noble, I am going to Borders from now on. At least their membership is free.
