Ordered a monitor from Best Buy. Order number BBY01-806969364944. Got a notice it was going to be delivered by Shipt and then an hour later it was returned. I asked Best Buy why and they stated the Shipt delivery person decided it was unsafe to leave the monitor at my address. I have a long driveway where my mailbox sits at the end of the driveway. The Shipt delivery person was so lazy they could not drive up my driveway and leave the monitor on my porch. No one attempted to try to deliver the monitor at my house as I have Ring and would have noticed. am very unhappy about this and its a waste of my time. Now I have to wait on the refund that takes up to 10 days to get back. Something needs to be done about this. This is unacceptableBusiness Response

We sincerely apologize for the frustration this situation caused.While we do not have access to charges made through Best Buy, we have confirmed the order was returned to the store. Best Buy can be reached at ************** should the customer need to contact them directly regarding their refund.

Complaint: 22345472
I am rejecting this response because: what is being done about the inconvenience to me? I originally purchased this item on a gift card. I had to wait several days to get the gift card funds back which caused me to have to charge my credit card for another order of the item.

Shipt will not take our calls or let us initiate a grocery order through the app. We have been paying Shipt members for years now.We emailed the payments department as Shipt explained. They promised a response within 48hrs. That time window has since passed, and we needed our grocery order at our doorstep days ago. We do not have the grocery order for meals that is vital to our household. There are no problems with our Shipt membership or credit card.Business Response

On September 19. 2024, a Shipt shopper was questioned several times about the condition of a new ***** air purifier. He lied and brought me a used air purifier that was used and damaged and full of dog hair. Shipt advised me to carry at 40 pound unit back to the store. I asked for another unit and the only policy is to return items physically to the store. I want a refund .Business Response

We would like to express our sincerest apologies to this member for the poor experience and frustration this caused. We understand a request for an exchange is being made, however that is not possible as our shoppers are private contractors. As such, they only shop and deliver orders for us, once the order is marked delivered, the order will be closed and only a new order can get a new shopper on the order. We cannot send a shopper out to exchange items. The member can certainly get a refund, but they will need to go to the Target and return the item directly with the store transaction ID: ******************. The manager is aware of this exchange/return request and has been awaiting the member to return the high value item.

On 17 September, I placed an order for same-day delivery at **********. Shipt was the company to do the delivery. I placed the order around 5 PM. I was told that the order would be delivered by 645. Nothing occurred at 6:45. 30 minutes later I was told that they had delivered to the wrong address and canceled my order. They refused to redeliver. They also refused to assist me in getting the order redelivered. This was unacceptable.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: it does nothing. It offers me a refund which I am already entitled to. It fails to acknowledge that they were at fault for delivering to the wrong address and then refusing to assist in a redelivwry that evening. I spent a great deal of time on the phone. In email. And in the target website that night with no assistance at all. To make matters worse I kept getting emails from them stating how happy they were with hat they had resolved my issues. Which they had not.

I placed my first order on Shipt last night for delivery between 8-9 am today. It was marked as delivered this morning at 8:58 am, but I did not receive the order despite being home waiting for it. I entered the correct address on my account and order (house number *****), however the delivery photo provided showed a completely different exterior than my home with a house number 1002. When contacting Shipt support for help, the agents were extremely unhelpful. They immediately reached out to the shopper and informed me that she said unit ***** doesnt exist so she delivered it to 1002, which is the correct address. This is absolutely not the correct address, and its ridiculous that Shipt support and a Shipt shopper are able to dictate that my unit number is different or simply doesnt exist and refuse to refund me for my missing order. Every single Shipt support agent I got in contact with acknowledged the order was delivered to 1002 and insisted it was the correct house. They also refused to transfer me to a supervisor, stating that the supervisor would not be able to assist. Including representatives ******* and ******. I have several pieces of evidence showing that my listed address is indeed correct and that the order was misdelivered. I have sent this to Shipt via email ************************************** including screenshots of my Ring doorbell between 8-10 am with no activity, a photo of the exterior of my home (which looks completely different than the delivery photo) with the correct house number ***** as stated, and finally a copy of my most recent internet bill that displays my full address, name, and unit number in the top corner, which matches what I indicated on the order in the first place. This has been ridiculous and unacceptable service from Shipt. I need a refund for this missing order I never received, and I will be sure to NOT recommend this service to anyone and discourage everyone I know from getting scammed.Business Response

I placed an order with Shipt on August 26th. The order is order number Order #*********. The order was canceled immediately. I paid with 2 separate cards. Neither one have been refunded its been 19 days. I've emailed the payments department I've chatted and I've called several times I have screen shots of emails especially the one from your incidence department. I emailed the payment email on 8/29/ 9/6 and 9/9 I've also sent screenshots and emails back to the incidence email and have received 0 response. At first you told me you refunded my debit card but not the ebt card because it was the *** department, then it was an engineering issue, then it was an error and a supervisor would call me. Then it was you haven't refunded either card and i need to email payments. Ive done that. You have not responded. My mom emailed the payments department on 9/13 at 11 am and received a response at 7 pm on the same day. So before you try and tell me again they are just backed up and handle things in the order in which they receive is simply not true if your responding to things same day when you haven't responded to something from days and weeks ago. This is theft you canceled the order and have kept the money and if not resolved by 9/16/2024 I will be going to kent county court house and filing a civil lawsuit with my attorney. I will also be compensated it sounds like from the lawyer for each day you didn't refund me and the countless hours of time i have spent trying to resolve this.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: its been over 3 weeks your payments team has not communicated with me at all. not a single response since august 29th. There is no communication. I have filed a lawsuit. I do not need to dispute anything with my bank. This is fraud and if you have not been serviced yet you will be shortly. Also be aware every day that you do not issue the refund the amount of the lawsuit increases according to what myself and my lawyer filed on 916/2024.

I placed my order at Target at 9pm I paid $10 for the delivery option and I got an SMS that it'll be delivered between 9am and 10am. It is now 7:30pm and I still don't have my delivery, nobody even shopped for my order yet. I keep getting a notification every 2 hours that the delivery is delayed another 2 hours. I have no idea what the status is with my delivery. I called customer service and they read their script from the *********** right of the computer and say the same thing as the **** So basically nobody has any idea what's going on they couldn't care less and there is nobody to talk to.Business Response
