      I visited the ** Maxx store at ************************************************ on 6/21, to return a few defective items recently purchased all of which were listed on my receipt. One itema measuring cupwas initially difficult to locate on the receipt due to the volume of items I had purchased and how it was labeled.A manager named "***** B," who had 2 flags in her hair, went to the back of the store & returned with a measuring cup that was clearly half the size of the one I had purchased. She tried to issue a store credit of $2.99 based on that smaller item. I politely explained what I bought was significantly larger and asked if the store credit could be adjusted to $4.99. She refused.When I asked to speak to the store manager, she told me she was the manager on duty. I then asked for the name of the store manager or district manager to follow up on this issue, & she flatly refused to provide any *************** information. She also refused to take my contact details to pass along. Rather than de-escalating the situation or helping in any meaningful way, she dismissed my concerns & did nothing to resolve the issue. Her behavior came off as hostile, unprofessional, & unwilling to assist.Eventually, the measuring cup I brought in was found on the ************ was priced closer to $4, not the $2.99 ***** was insisting on. I want to formally file a complaint against this manager for her unhelpful attitude, refusal to provide basic information, & poor handling of the situation. *** worked in retail myself. I find it incredibly disappointing that a $2 price difference was allowed to escalate to this point.On a positive note, a staff member named ***** went above & beyond to help. She assisted me in searching for the correct item, including checking the back of the store where customers aren't allowed, & she suggested checking back later in the week. ***** was kind, helpful, & the only employee who demonstrated genuine customer service. I sincerely appreciate her efforts.

      My item was shipped supposedly on June 11th. When I checked tracking 48 hours latter it still showed that the shipper did not have it. I contacted Marshalls who said it WAS shipped and that Lasership/****** just hadn't scanned it in. I reached out to Lasership/****** who said they did not have it in their possession and that they have NOT received it. So ********** has either lied or Lasership has lied but my package is not here and I expect to see it by Wednesday, June 18th which is when I am supposedly to receive it. So they can either find my item and ship it to me or refund me my money or I will go to my bank and file a fraud charge.

      On Saturday June 7th. I went into the local store located on ****************** to return a rug that I purchased. The lead on duty that night stated that I could not return the rug due to it having a stain on it. Which is the reason for me returning the rug. I am a very busy person and was not able to return the rug sooner, but I did return it within the return window period. The Lead ****** told me that I would need to speak with the manager the next day. I called the manager and her stated that he most likely would not be able to return it due to there store policy.If I had known when purchasing the rug I would have asked to look at the rug closely before I took it out of the store. I was never told that there was any policy the have in place. I would like my money back as I fell like this is a lot of money to waste for something that I did not cause.

      I was offered a 10% discount on my purchase if I let the clerk make a hard pull on my good credit. I let her make the credit card application then she said the credit card company would get back with me and I received NO discount. I have good credit so it should have gone through. I received a letter from ************** stating to call them just to make sure I am who I say I am. So, I am approved but received no discount. I feel that this is a scam to get customers to apply for the credit card then saying the company would get back with me and I did not get the discount they promised.

      I have reviewed the response submitted by the business and have determined that the response does not satisfy or resolve my issues and/or concerns in reference to complaint # 23458959. Please add your rejection comments below; if you do not provide any details, your complaint will be closed as Answered. 

      My issue was not with the bank as discussed with Synchrony. The issue is with TJ Maxx offering a 10% discount for applying for a Credit Card. "You will get 10% off this purchase if you apply." Not true if bank cannot instantly issue the approval or if you have to wait a few days or hours for approval then you have lost out on the discount and pulled a hard credit check. My problem is with TJ Maxx presentation on the offer.  It was a bait and switch tactic by TJ Maxx and now a shift in responsibility by pawning the blame off on Synchrony Bank.  The bank was not the issue. 





      Regards,

      Holly

      I reached out to TJMAXX in reference to an order that arrived damaged and pretty much not usable. The order were two perfumes. The order was originally placed on April 30th. The order was received as received with in a week. I'd been trying to contact via Chat but was unsuccessful. Ultimately ended up filling out an online contact form. I never heard back. I recently reached out again and received a smart email indicating there was a response in reference to my damaged order and that was it. Nothing mentioned of my complaint or damaged items or any resolution offered. As a result I'm not filing a complaint with BBB. All I wanted was a refund or the items reshipped. I was surprised at the customer service I received from what I once thought of as a great company.

      On 6/7/25 I purchased a $30 purse from a ******* located in ***************. I discarded the tags and receipt as I was certain I was purchasing a sturdy bag. Within 20 minutes of purchasing, the handle broke off of the purse, essentially making it useless. When I tried to return it the same day, I was told that because the charge was still pending, that I would have to wait until it processed and bring it to any TJ Maxx with my original form of payment. On 6/10/25, I took the purse and proof of purchase from my banking app to the ******* located in ***********, *****. After waiting 25 minutes in line, I was told by the store clerk that nothing could be done without the receipt or tags. She was incredibly unhelpful, condescending and rude. She barked at me to take the purse with me upon leaving but at that point I considered it garbage. Im incredibly disappointed with how this was handled as I did provide proof of purchase.

      We purchased two small trees as decor for our home from the HomeGoods store in ******, ********. After a few months, when trying to carry the tree from the top, it came off the vase and we have not been able to return both for a refund. Keep in mind, we have also used the *** credit card, so essentially the credit card itself will be getting a refund.

      My TJMAXX credit account was closed on April 4, and I am still owed a refund. Despite this, the company has twice inaccurately reported my account, with a $0 balance, as delinquent to the credit reporting agencies. These false reports have negatively impacted my credit, and I have had to call customer service repeatedly over the past three months to request that they correct the error and file disputes with the credit bureaus.This ongoing issue has caused undue stress, wasted significant time, and harmed my creditworthiness through no fault of my own. I find this to be a completely unacceptable and negligent business practice, and I am seeking immediate resolution: the correction of all inaccurate credit reports and the full refund I am owed.

      I ordered clothes online from **************************, like I frequently do. This was a larger order and instead of returning the items in-store, which I frequently do, I opted to return these items via mail, online. In the original shipping, they provide a barcode for in-store returns and a label for mail-in returns. I used the original packaging and label provided and mailed all of the items, I kept nothing, back to the merchant. I used FexEx on 3.29, but sadly was not provided with any tracking info other than a text which expired before I got to it. The merchant received the items, but only provided me with a partial return. The entire order was $789.69 and I received a refund for $606.28, leaving $183.41 still due back to me. This all happened in March/April of 2025 and I followed up with the company twice since. The credit card company, *************, said without 'proof' they can't help me. I told them about the details tied to this return and the only proof I have is the text from ****** The merchant never acknowledged receiving any of the items, and the only verification was the refund for the incorrect amount of $606.28. Please help as I'm getting nowhere with them.
