I placed a very large order during the recent VIB sale. I received the order today, and was missing three items. I called Sephora customer service for assistance. The first agent I spoke with, said that she couldnt reship the items because Sephora has already helped me. I dont even know what that means. But I asked how Sephora could take my money, and not provide me the products I paid for. She immediately transferred me to an alleged supervisor. When he got on the line, he was aloof, unprofessional, and clearly not interested in helping. He put me on hold for almost 45 minutes while he investigated. I inquired what he was investigating and what the issue was. After all that time he did not resolve the issue and bluntly stated he could not guarantee a refund for my missing items but would put notes in my account. So ********************** takes your money, does not provide the products customers pay for, and then does nothing to fix their error. That feels like steeling customers money.Business Response

Please know that we welcome you to continue shopping with us online, but if you place orders to this or other addresses this will be at your own risk until we have determined that you are reporting an acceptable pattern of order issues.

I am rejecting this response because: I paid for items. Due to poor packing and/or ****************** at Sephoras shipment warehouse, I am missing 3 items from my order (again, that I paid for).To be clear, the majority of my order arrived. I am missing 3 items out of 34 items in my order. This is the first time Sephora has ever shipped to this address, so that excuse you tried to provide in a separate email sent directly to me is 100% null and invalid.
Sephora, I spend a lot of money with you and very, very rarely return or exchange anything (please check my account and you will see that). I placed this order and paid for my items. You did not provide all the items I paid for and you are now refusing to reship them. Sephora you have committed theft in the most basic form.
Taking money for products and not providing products is also a scam, and unfair consumer protection violation.
Sephora, you have stollen my money.

Dear ********,
We again apologize that a portion of order #*********** was not received.
As mentioned in our initial response, we are unable to offer a reshipment or refund due to the previous accommodations made which include the following orders:Order #*********** November 2022; Lost order reported, and replacement accommodated.
Order #*********** October 2022; damaged item reported, and replacement accommodated.
Order #***********- January 2022; damaged item reported, and refund and replacement accommodated.Please note, you have also reported issues with at least six other orders over the past several years, where accommodations have been made.
Given that this level of discrepancy in your shopping history is extremely uncommon and not the type of experience we strive to provide our clients, orders placed to this or other addresses will be at your own risk until we have determined that you are reporting an acceptable pattern of order issues. We recommend shopping in store to avoid any additional order issues.We hope this information better clarifies.

On March 17th I put an application in for a Sephora Credit Card. I was logged into my Sephora account when I applied online. I instantly received a hard inquiry (which I already understood). I got the messages that reads ********************** is currently reviewing your application, and youll be notified by mail within 10 business days. Thanks for your patience." On April 3rd I reached out to customer service and told them that I never received any notice or other communication and it has been over 10 days. The rep was very nice and understandable, she transferred me to another gentlemen who basically disregarded my concerns and sent to an automated system. I thought to myself, maybe I should wait a little longer. Fast forward to today, April 19th, I WHOLE month after getting the HARD INQUIRY. I called to customer service AGAIN. The first rep was very nice but she said she was transferring me to the correct department to speak with them but she transferred me to an automated system. (RUDE). I hung up and called again and was greeted my a representative that sounded like she eating a full meal with the phone on speaker because when I told her I could not hear her she picked the phone up and resumed the call. I explained what my issue was and she was not concerned whatsoever and she was very rude by cutting me off. At this point I'm very annoyed so I asked to speak with someone of a higher authority and she did not say anything but instantly put the phone on hold (the music plays) and the phones hangs up 35 seconds later. I highly upset because I shop at the retailer often and I have a hard inquiry on my credit report without ANY information and It has been well over the time frame. I need answer.

I placed an order at Sephora online order number ***********. Today 4/17/23 I received my package order number *********** and most of the items where there except one; which is a ***** bronzer. I called Sephora to let them know that I didn't get the ***** Bronzer. the operators where dismissive. The operators where treating me as if I was lying and telling me there was nothing they can do. I kept telling them that the ***** Bronzer was not sent to me and they ignored me and made me feel as if I was doing something wrong. I called to let them know that I didn't receive the ***** Bronzer.I would like Sephora to either send me the ***** bronzer or refund me my money; because I'm not going to pay for an item I never received.Business Response

Sephora has a promotion, where if you get a Sephora credit card you get 25% off your order. The total for the transaction has to be under $1000, and you can use the 25% off the same day. It says those things explicitly. I applied for the credit card, got approved for well over the transaction amount, which was under $1000, but when I tried to use it the website said denied due to security. When I tried to use another credit card it said the Sephora card had to be used to use the 25% off discount.The next morning I called Sephora and got transferred to several people over multiple depts. it seems that the credit card cannot be used without the *** code on the back of the card. When I pointed out that it would be impossible for me to have that code without the physical card, and it would be impossible to have the card the same day, I was told so sorry, but thats how it is.Sephora is currently having a sale. I have already lost an item out of my basket since last night due to it becoming out of stock. If I have to wait until I get the card I anticipate *several* more items will be lost due to stocking. When I asked them to simply give me the 25% off since that was ultimately what I wanted they said no. When I pointed out I had taken a hit to my credit and met all their criteria for that discount, they again said sorry, but nothing they can do.Bottom line, they are advertising a deal that they have no intention of upholding. If you goggle this issue you will find multiple customer complaints for this exact problem spanning at least the last YEAR. Which tells me this is a problem they know about and have no intention of fixing. This is shady marketing at best and I dont understand how its legal.Business Response

Dear *****,
We are sorry to hear of the continued issues you have had in attempting to place an order with your new Sephora Credit card.
In researching the notes in your account, as well as your contacts to Sephora ****** Services, it sounds like there was an issue with the credit card number issued by ************** This may have prevented you from placing an order with your temporary Sephora credit card. We apologize for any frustration this may have caused.While the details we have indicate that you had already been in touch with ************* to remedy the issue, if you encounter any further problems with your card, we ask that you reach out to ********************* directly; please know, ************* issues and handles all Sephora credit card related inquiries. We regret that we are unable to access any details related to your account.
As it may be helpful, we do want to point out that per the terms and conditions, any order using a temporary card must be shipped to the billing address that was included on the credit card application; if you wish to ship to an alternate address, you will need to wait until the physical card arrives so you can enter the *** code. Additionally, there is a limit of $1000 when using the temporary credit card regardless of your overall credit limit.
You have 30 days to make your first purchase with your Sephora credit card and to use the first-purchase 25% off discount, so you will likely have time to place an order once you receive the corrected physical card. To confirm, the Sephora credit card first time use discount (25%) cannot be combined with the savings event promo code, SAVENOW.
We hope these details clarify and thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address your concerns.
Sincerely,

I am rejecting this response because: Your response is full of irrelevant details. My cart was less than $1000. I did not try to use the offer in conjunction with any other offer. The billing address was the same as the shipping address. I met all of the criteria to get the 25% off and did not receive it, for no good reason. For no reason at all as far as I can tell.Sephora said if I apply for a credit card and met certain stipulations I would get a discount. It is on Sephora to keep that promise. Not comenity bank. Your company had options it could have used to fix it and refused to do so. You could have called comenity to run it thru, but didnt, because our policy has changed. You could have simply taken 25% off the transaction, but didnt because thats not our policy. Evidently its not your policy to honor promises made in your advertisements.
There are complaints about this *exact* issue going back at least a year. Your company is aware of this problem and has obviously taken no steps to fix it. I say again, I dont understand how this is legal.

Dear *****,
Thank you for the opportunity to address your additional concerns.
We apologize for any confusion that our original reply caused. We understand that attempting to resolve the issues with your Sephora credit card have been drawn out and frustrating and we are very sorry for this. Please be assured that we have passed your feedback to the appropriate leadership for review and consideration regarding our business partners.
As previously mentioned, we do not have access to any details of your credit card account, as all issues related to the credit card are handled by the issuing bank, ************** However, we do see that you were able to make a successful order with your Sephora credit card in the last few days, meaning you should now have a valid card. While the order you placed was not eligible for the 25% off first time use discount, as you used promo code SAVENOW,which is part of our yearly savings event, we would be happy to assist with applying the 25% off on your next order if paid for with your Sephora credit card. Per policy, clients are able to defer their 25% off credit card discount if they prefer to use SAVENOW more immediately, as you did.
Please contact us by phone at 877-SEPHORA ***************) when you are ready to place your next order and one our Beauty Advisors will be certain that your 25% off discount is applied properly.
We hope this has helped to clarify further and we appreciate your patience throughout this issue.

Sephora is automatically cancelling valid orders of their biggest customers because theyre claiming they cant validate payment information during their biggest sale. I had three orders cancelled between Friday April 14 and Sunday April 16. I contacted customer service multiple times by phone and email. By phone I was told they needed to verify my information but when I provide my personal and payment information it was exactly what they had on file.A representative informed me via email on Saturday that the information had been verified and the security hold had been removed 230414-000994. I was then successfully able to place an order.I just tried to place another order today (Sunday) and it was again immediately cancelled by Sephora claiming unsuccessful authorization after I had just been told this was fixed. I verified all my information verbally over the phone. My cards and payment info are correct. Why is Sephora preventing their best customers (rouge members who spend upward of $1000 per year) from shopping their sale?Business Response

On April 14, 2023, I was making an online order/in store pick up using this companys app. I have been a customer for several years and have used the app successfully for just as long. Additionally, I am frequently asked to apply for a credit card for this company. I decline typically as the benefits have not matched my other credit card companys benefits in the past. That being said, today I was offered via an online line to apply for a store credit **** card and receive a 25% discount. When reading the terms and conditions, it stated that I would be able to use the temporary card immediately, as well as the discount would be applied to my current order (as I had not completed it yet). Since the discount was greater than the one I was already receiving and the benefits of the card had improved, I decided to go ahead and apply. I was immediately approved and a temporary card was loaded onto my account. When I went to complete the purchase, I was given an error. The error stated, For security reasons, we cannot accept your temporary credit card with Sephora for this purchase. Please change your payment method. Your new credit card with Sephora is on the way and you can use it soon. Since I still needed the items, I switched to my other credit card on file and completed the order. I called customer service and was told at that time that the card would NOT go through online because it required a CVV - which of course I did not have because I do not have a physical card. She advised that NO order would go through online and that the best that they could do is try to force the order through on their end; this would require me to risk being charged on both cards. The website and application use false advertisement to entice customers to apply for a card. By their own system limitations, they cannot provide the services and discounts they advertise.Business Response

Dear ***,
We are sorry to hear of the continued issues you have had in attempting to place an order with your new Sephora Credit card.
It is true that once approved for a Sephora Credit card, a temporary version of the card is saved to your Sephora.com account. With limitations, your temporary card is available for use without the *** code until your physical card arrives via mail. We are sorry that this has not been the case for you and that you are being asked to enter the *** code upon checkout.
In review of your account, we are not able to identify the specific reason you are being required to enter the *** code for use of your temporary card. However, we would like to point out that per the terms and conditions, any order using a temporary card must be shipped to the billing address that was included on the credit card application. If you wish to ship to an alternate address, you will need to wait until the physical card arrives so you can enter the *** code.
Please note, we currently are in the middle of our Sephora Savings Event. Depending on a clients Beauty Insider tier, they may be eligible for a promotional discount of between 10% and 20% off of any order placed during this time using promo code, SAVENOW. To confirm, the Sephora credit card first time use discount (25%) cannot be combined with the savings event promo code.
We were made aware that a member of our team had reached out to you via phone in an effort to further discuss the issue and to help troubleshoot.You are welcome to reply via the BBB or reach out to the team member directly;information for contacting them should have been left in the voicemail left for you.
Thank you for the opportunity to address your concerns.

This morning I placed an order with Sephora online and the site had multiple places where it kept telling me if I opened a credit card with them I would save 187 dollars and some change. I had all my items in the cart and had applied the discount coupon for 20% off so I assumed the $187 savings was in addition to the 20% percent code that was applied. Once I did the application and attempted to add the savings for opening a credit card an error message appeared that you couldnt use both. This seemed like deceptive practices to get consumers to open a credit card. If it had said youll save an additional 5%, which is my case, I would not have opened the card. I would like my application withdrawn with no impact to my credit score.Initial Complaint

I tried to redeem my Sephora reward points for their reward product the $100 gift card. However, I got rejected three times because of unsuccessful authorization. The first time it was rejected , I called them and they said they need to submit an authorization form. They stated that after the form was approved, that redeem points order will be re-processed and I would be able to get the $100 gift card. They said that only needs 2 business days. But after a week seeing the order status is still canceled, I called them again. This time they stated that the authorization has been approved but they can never re-process canceled orders. They asked me to wait for that reward product to be back in stock and place another order. And they guaranteed this time it wont be rejected. So I decided to trust them again and this morning I tried again. Unfortunately, this time my order got rejected again!!!! And the same reason unsuccessful authorization! I called them again and they said that is because I am using my husbands card and it doesnt match with the account name. But I also placed 2 other orders for make up items, same card, same account, they all went through!!!! Sephora just does not allow me to use my points for their reward gifts! This time after calling customer service, still the same thing, submit an authorization form and wait for next time. Can I still trust them? NO!Business Response

To become accredited, a business must agree to BBB Standards for Trust and pass BBB's vetting process.
Why choose a BBB Accredited Business?BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.
BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
