      On 8/29/24, I began a return for two pairs of shoes, as neither of the shoes fit. I placed both items in the same box that they were shipped in from the company, and completed the return online. I printed the label at home, placed it on the box with both pairs of shoes inside of the box, and dropped it off at my local ***** drop off site. I received an email stating Finish Line received my return on 9/3/24 showing both items. I then received a refund for one pair of shoes for $58.99, but did not receive the rest of my refund for $96.52. I called to inquire about this, and was told that they only received one pair of shoes. I was shocked, as I placed both pairs of shoes in the box and also have a receipt from ***** showing the weight of the package that I dropped off and that Finish Line received. Despite me providing the receipt from ***** as proof that I returned both items due to the weight of the package, my request for a refund for the other pair of shoes is still being denied. I believe this is incredibly unfair, as I did nothing wrong in the return process. I would like the rest of my refund, and at this point, I have made numerous calls to customer service with no help/resolution despite providing receipts.

Please refund for three orders to email on the order.

      I am filing a complaint against Finish Line regarding a highly unsatisfactory shopping experience.On 09/19/2024, I ordered a pair of shoes that arrived in poor conditionseemingly worn and improperly packaged, with no tissue paper inside the box. I returned the shoes to ***** for pickup, as they had an issue with the order. However, due to complicationspossibly related to a hurricanethe package was sent back to me instead of being processed. I sent the shoes back to ***** again for delivery to Finish Line's facility in ************. Despite this, I have yet to receive my refund. Finish Line has also blocked my phone number, making communication impossible. They indicated a 5-day processing time for returns, but this delay feels excessive. It seems as though Finish Line is being spiteful in handling this situation, as they have possession of the package but have not processed my refund. This experience has been incredibly frustrating, and I am seeking assistance in resolving this matter and obtaining my refund.Thank you for your attention to this issue.

      I purchased a pair of Jordans back in December, ordered a pair for myself & ordered a pair for my boyfriend. Package arrived, I just opened the box, gave my boyfriend his pair & put my pair in the closet. Which is a problem that I have, along with being a sneakerhead. Sofast forward to last week 09/21 when I FINALLY decided to wear my Jordans because I was going to NYCimagine my surprise when I opened my box & these Jordans have been worn! Not only worn, but worn out & stretched out! I contacted the company after reading about the policy online to see if anything can be done, they referred me to ****, **** Will not accept sneakers on complaints of being worn. So Im in a pickle. I have NEVER worn these sneakers, IF I did they would NEVER look as worn as this! This was the only time I ever ordered from Finish ******** will never order from Finish Line again. I have sneakers that are 5, 6 years old & DO NOT look like this pair! I just dont understand! Did the person packing my order see that it was the same sneaker & trade them?! Because they are stretched & USED beyond what I would EVER do to my kicks! And I own many many sneakers that I order from ****.

Every time I call they tell me they same thing listed above and they are escalating the situation but I still have not received my refund it is still being held by finish line and says pending on my account

      On August 24, I earned a pair of white thunder ****** $s and was to pick them up at the ****************************************************************************************************** store August 24th. I redeemed ***** rewards points While my points I redeemed where returned, I was told the shoes were never delivered. I have filed two formal verbal complaints, to get a answer where these shoes went? I am losing faith in finish line due to the lack of response as their customer service email is undeliverable. I never was able to get a pair of shoes for my son he was expecting for school. Can someone please research and respond to tell me what happened to my shoes and what finish line is going to do to make it right? Status account ********

      On 9/7/24 I went to store #***, Located in: ************** at ************** Address: ***********************************************. I went to return two items from the two different order numbers that I provided because they did not look like the picture from the website. They were the beige 9060 New balance size 11 in woman's and size 8 1/2 in woman's. The store representative told me that she had to call customer service because my original form of payment was ******. She then checked both sneakers after she spoke to the customer care representative and told me my refund was being processed, not to pay any attention to the return labels that were sent to me through email because I returned the sneakers to that store. I asked for a receipt as proof that I left the sneakers there, she said the labels were my proof but that did not make any sense to me so I stood in the store and personally called the finish line customer service number which was ************** at 7:53 PM on 9/7/24. The representative gave me two confirmation numbers for these returns, I even verified the shoe size because in the order for the complaint there were two pair of sneakers one was beige size 8 1/2 woman and the other pair was a size 7 in toddlers in a grey and white color that I still have for my son. The woman confirmed the sizes for return which was a womans 11 and 8 1/2 beige 9060 sneakers the reference numbers were ********* and *********. She said everything was done correctly so to have no worries. When I received the refund I realized that one of the refunds was incorrect. I was refunded $80 for the toddler grey and white sneakers that I still have but was supposed to receive $150. I contacted customer service, today makes three times. I was told that the other half would be manually processed for me last week but today when I called I was told that it was not being processed. I still have the $80 sneaker, I want the rest of my refund back for the 150 for the correct item.
