    I purchased scrubs on 5/7/24, despite 2 emails and reaching out on instagram no response. Ive been purchasing scrubs for several years from them and the customer is extremely disappointing, never in my 4 years of purchasing have I experienced this.

    ONE: I referred a friend in February to receive a discount code for 20% off my purchase once that friend makes a purchase. That friend made a purchase the same day, yet I never received my code. I contacted Figs later receiving one, but this code never worked. I messaged back for a couple of weeks before giving up, bc I was constantly being told that it was valid. Come **** im needing to order scrubs again, and knowing that I still have this code, I want to use it. I try; still doesnt work. I contact CS again, knowing that nurses week is coming up the following week, therefore I am trying to beat the rush and use it then for my order, in order to receive my scrubs on time. It would take days for me to get a reply, and as soon as I reply back, take another few days to hear again. I asked that I just be sent another discount code so we dont keep missing each other, but CS wanted to place the order for me, asking everything that I wanted in my cart. Another 3 days go by, dont hear from him again. Finally, after asking 2x, I hear back, ironically at the beginning of nurses week (which I no longer need to use my discount code for, which I didnt even mind using to avoid the extra traffic from orders) and I finally receive a new code! TWO: I went ahead and placed an order early in the morning of May 6th. I have contacted FIGS several times for updates and do not hear back from them for 4+ days, never resolving my issue. I was told that I would receive a shipping confirmation email by May 26th, which I did not. I needed these scrubs to be in last week! The service between figs and the customer this time has been awful. I then receive emails asking me to rate my service, and even if its not a good review, they dont do anything to try and fix it. My credit card has been charged by affirm twice already, therefore I am paying interest on an order that hasnt even been sent. I am waiting for answers as this is extremely unacceptable.

Prior to receiving this complaint, **************** contacted FIGS about the delay in shipment of the order she placed on May 6th. Due to unforeseen circumstances, her order was delayed in shipment and many of the items she ordered we out of stock. We deeply apologize for the errors on her order and the delay. A FIGS Customer Experience Manager spoke with **************** on June 3th. Because 5 items in her order were out of stock, she was issued a refund in the amount of $227.80. The refund also included for an item she did receive because it was a broken set of scrubs. Additionally, because of the errors on her order, she was issued a $100 discount code for a future order. We deeply apologize for her experience and have taken the necessary steps to ensure these errors do not happen in the future. If **************** would like to further discuss the matter, she can refund our call or email. Until then, we consider this matter closed.

    I have been trying to reach Figs for a couple days now for an order placed now almost two weeks ago. Multiple attempts with the phone and no call back despite leaving a voicemail. No reply back with email. The online chat customer service representative said that they werent able to help me and another agent would email me about my missing order within two hours and still no reply. My order has been shipped out for over 10 days and no update on it. I contacted the shipping company thinking it was them and they told me that FIGS has not even shipped out my items to the company for them to ship out to me. After numerous attempts to reach customer service and not even being able to this has gotten so incredible frustrating. Paying for overpriced scrubs and not even receiving them for work.

    This business is selling scrubs to healthcare providers in which the scrub pants are defective and continue to break in the same way every single time, not due to user error or wear and tear. The company refuses to replace their defective scrubs or even admit they have a manufacturing issue and address and fix it.

    FIGS received this complaint on March 12th. Prior to receipt of this complaint, ******************** contacted FIGS about a button falling off an item he purchased in 2022. As the purchase was well outside of the returns window, we offered him a discount code on a future purchase. A FiGS Customer Experience Manager contacted him on Friday, March 22nd, and in an effort to resolve his complaint, we issued him a gift card for a replacement purchase. As ******************** has had prior complaints with defective products, we advised him that we would not be able to make exceptions to our returns policy going forward. He stated he understood and accepted the gift card as resolution of his complaint. We consider this matter closed.

    My girlfriend and I visited the Figs store at the ********************** Mall today 11/24 at about 10:20AM and had a very unprofessional encounter with the store manager (male, 510, curly hair). One of the associates took our order on a piece of paper and handed to the back room for the items to be picked and tried on. The store manager brought out 1 item which was a jacket to try on first among the 7 items that was on the list. We had to wait for the other 6 items to be found from the back. We waited and 40 minutes into it, I asked for a status on why its taking so long from the store manager and he rudely just hushed me and to wait longer. I then asked another associate about ************************************************************************ trashed. I asked the store manager what is going on and again rudely telling me they dont have it when he was the person who gave us the jacket to try on in the beginning and had the list. He then goes on to blame the associate of not giving him the form. The associate said she gave it to the manager. It was back and forth between them. Then the store manager goes on with his 3rd excuse saying all these associates dont have sales experience and were pulled from operations. Instead of just owning up to his mistake and apologizing, he didnt try to resolve our issue and help us with our order rather he wasted 1.5 hours of our time trying to just try in 7 of the items in store.

    To Whom It May ******************** you for sharing **************** feedback and complaint. Upon receipt of this complaint, **************** experience was shared with our retail leadership team. This is not how FIGS trains our store management and something we take very seriously. Upon receipt of this complaint, a Customer Experience Manager contacted ************ on November 27th. For his experience, we offered ************ a 20% off discount code on a future purchase which he accepted as resolution of this matter.

    Complaint: 20912500

    I am rejecting this response because:  disappointed the coupon code was only for 20% which was not mentioned over the phone, and only mentioned in the email thereafter.   I believe 2 hours of our time was worth more than just 20% and this coupon can actually be obtained by just referring a friend on the website to gain a similar coupon.  I appreciate the phone call from **** but the compensation was a bit lack luster compared to the terrible experience we had experienced.

In addition to the offered 20% discount code, we sent ************ a care package of FIGS products which should arrive in the next 7 business days.
