      I sent in my North Face backpack for repair to their warranty department; upon further communication, they indicated that the necessary repair would not be covered so I elected to have them just ship my backpack back to me as it was still entirely functional. North ************ action number *******. North Face used ***** to ship the item, but did not include any instructions on delivery or require signature; tracking number ************. I never received the delivery despite the tracking suggesting they left it outside (high traffic/crime area). The North Face was unwilling to petition ***** regarding the missing package, and suggested it was at the consumer's burden. I have separately petitioned a claim with ***** but have gotten nowhere. As a a consumer I'm now out of options and facing the financial burden (have to buy a new backpack) because North Face didn't ensure my package was delivered in person (require signature) and won't coordinate with ***** on the delivery issue. Most B2C companies will engage on delivery problems, but North Face said it was not their policy - tough customer service. I am requesting a replacement bag, or commensurate value in the form of refund so I can purchase a new backpack.

      I made a return on March 13, 2023 and have still not received the refund of $1,005. I called the North Face a week after I made the return when I realized that I hadn't received the refund yet and they informed me it would take 3-5 weeks to be fully processed and for me to receive the refunded amount. While I thought this sounded crazy I decided to wait anyway. It has now been over 6 weeks and I still haven't received the refunded amount. They have made it very difficult for me to contact a representative with long phone wait times or the call dropping.

      I made an order on March 21 and received it on March 24. Order #A2336221. I ordered 2 jackets for my relative, one didn't fit and the other was the wrong model. As advised by their rep, I went ahead and repacked and returned the jackets last week. Today is April 18, 2023, and I have yet to receive the $572.40 refund and I need to use the funds before the family's upcoming trip.

      I'm not sure if I should complain against the North Face or OnTrac. I placed an order on the "North Face official website. The package shows "delivered" on March 4. I try to find it on March 5 or 6, but I couldn't find it. Then I went to find it more times afterward on other days, and I still couldn't find it. Packages were supposed to be put into lockers or the mail room. The delivery photo shows the package in a public hallway with other packages. It's not "delivered" properly.1. I have been getting numerous packages from various places at this residence. This is the ONLY ONE package lost. Other packages are delivered to lockers or [INSIDE] the mail room. The photo shows the package in a PUBLIC hallway not IN the mail room. The PUBLIC hallways is right at the entrance of the apartment. It is not properly delivered. It was not supposed to be delivered there. As a result of the delivery person's action, the package is now lost/unable to locate. The delivery person is at least negligent in this case.2. I have followed ******'s suggestions and contacted the seller (the North Face). Because the package shows "delivered," they suggest me to dispute with my bank. 3. I know I have the option to dispute it with my bank. However, I know the dispute process is going to be really troublesome because I used a non-US credit card issued by a non-US bank. Again, all because the package was labeled delivered with a photo showing the package in a PUBLIC hallways. 4. I'm not going to waste my time with my bank because OnTrac did not deliver to the destination properly.OnTrac delivery should have delivered in lockers or IN the mail room. Not ********** it on a PUBLIC hallway.

      I placed an order with The North Face on September 26, 2022 for the amount of $933.12 for (3) **** Retro Nuptse Jackets (Order #: A0374348). The order was supposedly delivered on September 28, 2022 at 1:23PM via ***** and required a signature upon arrival, although the items were never received by me because I was not home at the time of delivery (Tracking #: ************). Once I arrived at my residence around 6:00 PM that same day I found no package present and contacted The North Face and filed a claim with the shipping company, *****, immediately. Another individual signed for the package in my name, using a signature of STIM, which I have never used before and therefore, is not representative of my signature or myself. I have reached out to The North Face, as the merchant, on multiple occasions in an attempt to solve the issue of the theft of my package. After being told by an agent it would be reimbursed on their end, I was later told by another that there was nothing that could be done and to pursue action through the authorities and my credit card company. I had filed a police report and am still disputing the charge with the credit card company due to documentation being provided by The North Face, even though the company is aware that I never received the package. Being that they jackets never received by me, I refuse to have to pay for merchandise that I do not have and never received. I am I requesting the amount be reimbursed on The North Face's end. I am not financially responsible for these items as they are not and never were in my possession.

      March 25 about 2pm I drove to ***************** Mall in *******, Ma. from ******, ** about 2 hours away. To do an exchange or replacement of order #A231317201.

I have been in touch with The North Face customer service department, and they have let me know that the ************************* store is an independent store and has only been licensed to use The North Face name.

      I am rejecting this response because: What a Lame excuse. Then North Face or that independent retailer still carries North Face brand should be more careful about who they hire because that associate was EXTREMELY rude and LOUD its still reflects North Face brand/name. Also, l guess its okay to display behavior of that nature. Definitely the location(if you know what l mean) How about saying On behalf of North Face we apologize for the unpleasant experience. Basically, the associate could have handle herself in a professional manner, but as you stated they can conduct business as pleased.l will stay with Backcountry and Timberland.

      Sincerely,

      When I went to North Face and was in the dressing rooms I could see their security cameras from the dressing rooms. I'm concerned the security cameras can see into the fitting rooms when people are changing. I don't know who to bring this issue up too.

      This is a jacket that I purchased in an official store. The original price should be $260(excluding tax), but the store ripe off of the price tag told me that the price of $260 is a price that after a 30% off, we did check for several times before paying for that, but they still confirm that is the price after 30% off. The final price I paid was $234(which is including the 10% off of membership account open). The official website is also shown that the price of $260 is this jacket original price, not a price after 30% off. I would like to have a price adjustment and an apology for the price cheating.
