Target

Earlier this evening my wife and I had the utter displeasure of visiting your Paramus NJ store and was absolutely appalled at what we witnessed..

Entire aisles of merchandise opened, torn and laying on the floors, throughout the entire store,.. it looked as if the store was abandoned and smash and grab gangs had come in to finish the job.. and in every instance there was a teen aged worker nearby idly talking with her coworker and another “team member” was extremely busy watching videos on his phone, where were the managers?..

If there is no supervision then of course you’ll have chaos and staff members goofing off..

My question is,.. do the CEOs and Human Resources people KNOW what is going on in these stores?.. it was a GHETTO HOOD STORE,.. complete with all the “WOKE” garbage and racial tolerances..

In closing I am happy to say that I didn’t spend one thin dime there as we practically ran from the store so as not to be assaulted by the hired street thugs hanging around inside the store.. we will NEVER “darken” your door ever again,.. but I just wanted someone to know what is REALLY going on.. CHAOS.. but then again, that’s what you liberals and big corporations want right?.. chaos.

Well you have it here, all the chaos you want..

I will gladly republish this message on all social media and create scathing reviews for this disappointment of a store.. no management, no supervision, no quality, just pack ‘em in and sell sell sell,.. deplorable way to do business if ask me,.. but you didn’t so I’m done,.. no wonder the big retail stores are all tanking,.. this message will wind up in the trash bin on some entry level [censored]’s computer but at least I tried..

Disgusted.

I have an order of 12 little items for the holidays, and five of them arrived today (yesterday now) - - in three different little boxes. 2 sets of the same napkins in one, 2 of the same chocolates in another, and 1 of the 7 little ornaments ( all of the same collection) in another little box. And they all shipped from the same town and address in Illinois! WHY THREE boxes? (I dread to see how many boxes the last 7 ornaments arrive it. It's not like they are glass. They're FELT. And the one that just arrived was all by itself bouncing around the shoe box size shipping box with nothing to anchor it. Luckily, the box wasn't crushed, because mostly empty boxes often arrive seriously damaged. I believe in minimal packaging, but putting them all in one box with a little bit of something wouldn't have hurt.) ***

And one more comment (because Target's "Feedback" link is offline - - indefinitely?)

They are saying that because people are shopping less there, it is an indication that we are heading toward a recession. While there may be some truth in that, I've just recently taken to NOT going into Target much anymore (for years now, it's been one of favorite places to wander, and shop) because the store by me is SO MESSY and disorganized, (with barely any employees). It has become stressful to shop in the Target store.

I frequently shop Target Online and I do not like getting blank screens on search and sort requests. Upon checking, Target is tracking customer request, for example, those prevented from tracking me and causing blank screens were: js-sec.indexww.com pub.doubleverify.com edge.curalate.com resources.digital-cloud.medallia.com ..urepubads.g.doubleclick.net etc. As a customer and former developer, trust in Target is not there as I and other customers do not like to be spied upon for our searches. This is very "cheesy", insulting to us and quite frankly, not secure. It wastes our time and prevents us from timely and accurate result screens and selections. I have cancelled out of items only to go to Walmart (which also does some but limited tracking) and order there. Is there an option in a customer's profile to opt out of tracking and 3rd party requests such as target.scene7.com assets.targetimg1.com ponos.zero.naught.com? If not, I'll continue to take my online shopping elsewhere.

I purchased $1400 in gift cards from target in June for my kids graduation. I had saved for 12 months to do this. They let me know the cards were not working so I checked them on the mybalencenow website and it said there was a reversal of the funds back to target. I called the third party Incomm company and they said it was an activation issue. I sent them the receipt and all the card numbers for the claim. I called back 6 weeks later and they said the cards were sent I don’t get them. So now sept 2023 I finally got them to resend the cards to be told 7 to 10 days it’s Oct 30th no cards yet they keep telling me they are on the way. How can you sell this Target! I need help getting my hard earned money back

We shopped for groceries and picked up cheeseballs as part of our groceries. Our general understanding, or for that matter anyone's understanding would be that a store like Target will not keep expired items on their aisles, but unfortunately this incident happened to us on 8th October. We did not expect an expired product to be present and picked up a cheeseball container with the impression that they will stack up only fresh/unexpired stock. But only after billing and when we were about to leave the store did we realize that we observe the product was expired. I am attaching a ss confirming this.

We did reach out to staff but they asked us to pick a new unexpired one by ourselves, which took us a bit off as we expected they would help/assisted us in getting the replacement of expired item. But yet we did walk back to the aisle only to find more expired items. We did pick one unexpired cheeseball container though.

But this gives us a negative impression on Target now. We have been shopping there frequently and never check for expire dates on each and every food item we pick. We might now consider visiting to Target and want to caution our friends/relatives to lookout for this.

Operator of truck 172583 driving on I 87 south NY (Governor Thomas E. Dewey Thruway between exit 24 and 23) between 7:35 am - 7:50 am Sept 15 2023. Extremely reckless driving. Came behind me started honking and flashing lights even though I was going 65 mph (at the speed limit). Then went on to pass and tried to force me off the road by quickly merging back into the lane when more than half length of the truck hadn't even passed my car by. I had to slow down around 50 mph to prevent a collision. When he finally merged back he started driving around ~ 55 mph in attempts to frustrate.

Hello ,

my target card got discontinued for non use i applied for another one received it used once kept checking no payment due finally got hold of someone about the issue of me not getting a bill first off i was looking at my old online account thought the new card would roll over found out you don't do that got that straight the guy i talked to said said he understood the problem he would take care of the late fee of $29.00 issue resolved right ~~ NO WAY the very next day after i had paid the bill and got this resolved someone in billing attached a late fee of $29.00 for missed payment on the bill i had just paid ~~ im thinking this is resolved in the meantime of this happening i had surgery was laid out in the hospital and laid out at home i was sick ~~ long story short by the time this issue that had been resolved was now a bill of $101.00 i called explained this had been taken care they said they could only take of 1 late payment i explained what was going on and what had happened i could get no where with this person i asked for a supervisor was denied on multiple request ~~ my only solution at that very moment to end the outrageous billing wasto pay it and cancel my card at that very moment so as not to be charged for things that i should not have been charged for

I placed an online order on 9-2-2023. I paid with a 15.00 target gift card and put the 3.13 balance on my red card On 9-5-2023 I checked my checking account and they had charged the 3.13 and the 15.00 to my account. So I tried to call the store I go to and they would pick up and hang up after it had rang 10 times very unprofessional. So I called the corporate office after going through all the push buttons I got a person who said that the 15.00 had not been charged to me when I told I was looking right at it she told me again I wasn’t charged The supervisor I talked to said they always put the gift card amount as a hold on your red card account until the order is processed and then it falls off after 24 to 48 hours It’s there target gift card why do they need to put s hold on my account. This is wrong. If it were a different gift card or other card fine but there own gift card the hold is ridiculous and business wise very bad . Don’t order anything online and pay with a target gift card

We went to the Target in Lincoln, Nebraska to purchase move in college dorm stuff. Target advertised a 20% student discount for new students. We supplied all necessary information for student verification. Team members told us we would get verification within a few minutes via email. We waited in store for 1 hour waiting for verification, it never came. We called customer service and they were unable to help. They said it would take 1-3 days. We don’t have 3 days, my daughter has no car and this was the only day to move in.

We asked to speak to a customer service supervisor and we got Joe. (No last name). He was extremely rude to both my daughter and myself. Not only was he unhelpful but being rude to customers is totally uncalled for and unacceptable.

The whole college discount appears to be a scam. Customer service should have said, “oh you’re moving in to your dorm, congratulations, show me your ID and here’s your 20% discount” instead of us waiting 1 hour and never receiving the code. Waste of time.

I received many gift cards from target for my baby shower. 4 of which had zero balance, these cards were not scratched looked brand new. I personally scratched them to discover it had no money on it. I scratched opened these cards in target store in front of the cashier. I contacted customer service to complain they were no help kept asking for receipts of purchase. They wanted me to contact the original owner who purchased the cards. How do I find the original owners of the gift cards when I got several same amount cards. It’s a ridiculous way to find out anything. I’m not contacting all of my guest. I told them in email and over the phone they can check your surveillance footage in store I scratch the cards in stores. Don’t ever purchase gift cards from target they frauds

July 11, 2023 1:30 pm. . Target truck #880047. License plate SP395GMC. Driving west on I-80 just past Bettendorf, Iowa. Noticed target truck tailing us dangerously close and we were already in the passing lane going multiple miles over the speed limit. He screamed obscenities at us and when we drove to get away from him he proceeded to tail gate other cars, again dangerously close. He passed us again later and he leaned over the seat to make sure we could see him flip us off. Not a good look (or good advertisement ) for a target.
