      T.J.MAXX company previously said my gift card couldn't be used due to a billing address issue and promised to send me a new gift card. When I called, I requested an electronic gift card, and the customer service agreed, but ************ still mailed me a physical gift card. I am very upset because this new gift card has not arrived on time, and I am about to leave *****************. At that point, I won't be able to use the gift card. Firstly, the customer service had already agreed to give me an electronic gift card, but in the end, I didn't receive it, so this is deceitful. Secondly, the customer service told me the delivery would arrive in five days, but it hasn't arrived.When I contacted customer service again today, they said they would apply for an e-gift card for me, but it would take seven days and I can't get the e-gift card immediately. However, I will be leaving the ************* in two days and won't be able to use the gift card for shopping. Therefore, the purpose of my message is to request a refund to my credit card if T.J.MAXX cannot provide me with an e-gift card by tomorrow. I can provide my card number.

      Unfortunately, this store has been getting worse, as it used to be an alright store to shop at. However, I had recently purchased a gift card directly from their website online on 7/19/2024. The expected delivery date was from 7/24/2024 to 7/29/2024. When the gift card was still not shipped out by 7/26/2024, I decided to reach out to customer service, where they told me it was unable to be canceled. I proceeded to ask why since it has not been shipped yet. Instead of cancelling my order after my inquiry, they shipped out the item instead, claiming that it was shipped out on the 20th, which was inaccurate information due to the evidence on the tracking website provider. It was also claimed that it takes 10 days for gift cards to arrive from the email, however that was also false information due to the website tracking when I first checked out stating otherwise. Since I have evidence of the false claims, I wanted to provide a review claiming that this company decides to hide away true information, providing false commentary to customers, and rejecting customer requests in order to benefit the company profits instead. I would advise not to order anything from this store, especially online if you can.

      I purchased a lunch box on 5/18/2024.It was a birthday gift and given to the recipient on 6/19/24.The lunch box broke within a few weeks of use.I got the lunch box back from the recipient on 7/26/2024.I went to the ********** TJ Maxx with my receipt and they refused to return the item or give me a store credit.They said they couldnt help because the lunch box was used, broke and didnt have the original tag for the lunchbox!I explained thats why I was returning.because it broke in under 30 days.They kept saying it didnt matter that I had the receipt; they do not return broken items! Period!That makes zero sense. Ridiculous and made up rules by 2 cashiers.I was disgusted at the lack of customer service and am reaching out to file a complaint.

      TJ MAXX recently changed their credit card interest rates. Suddenly I miss not 1 but 2 bills and am charged late fees and interest. I am paid in full and have paid in full every month since Ive had their card. Something fishy is going on. I fought the first one and they finally removed the fees. The second month it happened I closed my card. They are unethical and unapologetic in their business practices. I now have a balance that is ONLY THE INTEREST. I want it removed and my account cleared and my credit report fixed. This is unacceptable.

      On Friday, July 19, 2024, I visited Marshalls with the intention of shopping in both the regular and clearance sections. During my visit, I encountered several issues that I feel need to be addressed. In the regular section, I found a massager that did not have a price tag. I attempted to find an employee to assist me, but it was extremely difficult. When I finally located an employee, the price check process took an astonishing 45 minutes. During this time, I was instructed to wait in one section, which prevented me from continuing my shopping.In the clearance section, I found a raised dog feeder. When I brought it to the register, the cashier immediately became combative, claiming the item was not on sale despite the clearance tag. According to Massachusetts state law, the price displayed on the shelf must be honored. The cashier, whose name I believe was *****, became rude and spoke inappropriately about the situation. The manager who intervened was equally combative and incorrectly stated that store policy overrides state law.Throughout this ordeal, I observed multiple customers experiencing pricing issues, indicating a broader problem with how items are priced at this location. The cashier even went as far as to threaten me, which was completely unnecessary. I suggested they review the security footage to verify my claims, but they refused.I am deeply disappointed with the service I received and the lack of adherence to state pricing laws. I spent over $100 during my visit and expected a much higher standard of customer service.

      On June 30th this summer around afternoon time, I was approached by an associate at my local TJmaxx who asked if I wanted to apply for their rewards program. I was not notified of this process being a credit card application, and was under the impression of the application being similar to other store rewards programs that have no credit line. The amount of my purchase that day was $99.37. As I was completing payment the employee was asking several questions including my social security number. I then asked why the store needed my social security number, and the associate ensured me that this was only for the store's database, and it's how they kept track of customers rewards accounts. Immediately after the payment I requested that the employee remove my information, and void my application. The employee then stated that it was too late for this as she already sent the application through. Furthermore, only right after the payment and application were completed that the employee brought up the fact that I had just submitted a credit card application. I paid the balance off the same day of submitting the application, and have not used the card since in hopes of it deactivating from inactivity. I want to report the incident and I am writing this complaint in the effort to remove the card from my credit history as it brought my score down, and prevent this issue from occurring to other unsuspecting customers. My credit card account number is
