I ordered a coat on 12/14/23 which was set to be delivered on 12/18/23. When it did not arrive I contacted north face.com for assistance and was told the system has been down for 2 weeks. I received an email on 12/19/23 stating my package would arrive 12/20/23. The notification I received said package was delivered but it was not. When I contacted north face for a refund I was told no and the system was down. I want my $380 back.Business Response

I have paid twice for an item from Northface and can't start a refund. On 11/24, I bought an item online for ***** and selected "pick up in store". (Order #: A3491413) My local store is at *********** Mall in ******, **. I received two emails confirming the shipping and arrival to the store on 11/28. There is no pick up time constraint mentioned anywhere in the email or on the website. I arrived to the store on 12/16, two weeks later, to pick up the item. It was not there. The store clerk said that it had been sent back after 3 days. I never received an email telling me that the item had been returned. I asked about a refund and the store manager said that it would be automatically issued. I showed her my bank account statement that showed no such refund. Then, I pulled up my order on the website and tried to start a return. The item that I had purchased was ghosted and I was unable to select it in order to begin the return.I mentioned to the store manager that if I purchased the item again, I would be paying for it twice. And she had no solution for me other than for me to call customer service on Monday. It's a gift so I did purchase it again and she, then, offered me a 20%discount. I called the number *************) that she gave me within business hours and there is no one answering. I have tried twice to resolve this through "online chat help" but I've had no success. I'm told that "the network is down" and the assistant can't access the information necessary to help **** think that any customer has a right to know up front that they have 3 days to pick up their item or it will be sent back. I think that an email should be issued when the item is sent back to the factory mentioning the automatic refund. I think these refunds should be processed quickly. It has been 3 weeks and still no refund. It's probably a glitch; but, it feels like theft.Business Response

Ordered Christmas gifts order #A3890597, says it was delivered last night however my security camera detected no activity within hours of the delivery time. Walked around my whole neighborhood searching for missing package with no luck. North face is refusing to refund, even after asking them to look if the delivery photo they supposedly have matches my home on ****** maps (i can tell you, it doesnt as my camera shows it was not delivered). Will never be doing business with this company and it is unacceptable on their end.Business Response

I bought a windbreaker during black friday at ******************** Outlets and they left the security tag on. I live two hours away and I called multiple places and there is no other location that can take off this security tag. I called online and they said they have no association to outlet stores. I called the outlet store at least 20 times and no one picked up. This is absolutely ridiculous from this company. I need a way to take off this security tag or a FULL REFUND and compensation.Business Response

Complaint: 20986304
I am rejecting this response because: the store has been extremely unresponsive in the past and I have not received a message from them yet with any sort of communication. Also, since this is a Christmas gift, there is no guarantee that it will be back within two weeks. I don't mind driving back out to *******, but since it's 2 hours away I want appropriate compensation for my time.

-18/10/2023 **** -Two jackets ordered online, with the expectation of delivery to my apartment -The jackets were reported as delivered by the courier, but were not received by me. A photo provided by The North Face customer support supposedly showing the parcel at my front door did not accurately represent my actual experience, as there was no package at my doorstep.-Initially, The North Face customer support requested five days to investigate the matter, followed by an additional five-day extension. The investigation concluded with a message from the ** Fraud and Investigations team asserting that the items were correctly shipped and delivered. They suggested I initiate a chargeback with my bank if I disagreed with their findings.However, this resolution did not address the core issue - the non-receipt of the ordered jackets. My subsequent chargeback request through my bank was contested by ** Northern *********** leaving me in a precarious financial position with no resolution in sight.The lack of a satisfactory resolution from The North Face has not only left me without the products I paid for but has also led to a distressing and ongoing dispute with my bank. This situation has caused significant stress and inconvenience, and I am seeking a fair and appropriate resolution, preferably in the form of a full refund or the actual delivery of the jackets I ordered.-Order number: ******** / Tracking number: **************Customer Answer

My mother got me a jacket from **************************** and I dont like the color. I thought the receipt was in the bag but when I went to return it I couldnt find it. It must have fallen out while I was in the mall. I simply just wanted to return it for a better color. Im brown skinned and the black and brown doesnt look good on me so Id prefer another color. The associate that was helping me indicated without a receipt I couldnt exchange it, however the website says I should be able to considering the tags are still on it and its unworn. Its frustrating that I have to go through this, the color I have simply looks washed out on my brown skin and Id like a better color. The mall is like 30 minutes from my house so This is a major inconvenience.Business Response
