      Complaint Details On March 28, I placed an online order with TJMaxx that came to a total of $106.56 which included $9.99 for shipping. I called **************** within an hour as I forgot to include the free shipping code. I was told to call back in one hour as the orders dont show up for an hour and was told they would credit me for the shipping. I then placed a second order which came to $42.50, including shipping. When I called back when I was told, another person person told me it was too late. I asked about my second order and wanted to merge the orders or cancel and make a new order, and it had not even been an hour, and she told me the orders were in progress and this could not be done. This is ridiculous as I was told to call back which I did. I just received the first order. It is now April 9, and the second order will not be received until April 13th. I am extremely unhappy. This will be 15 days for delivery when I receive that order and about 1/ for the first one. I am asking for TJMaxx to make this right as there is no way those orders were in progress so fast. I spent $106.56 and $42.40 for total shipping costs of $20.00, and I am requesting a refund of both shipping costs for $20.00. Its so wrong.Desired Outcome/Settlement Desired Settlement: Other (requires explanation) Billing adjustment; Refund

      I placed a ordered for a Luxury Towel Warmer I received confirmation that it was shipped out on 4/6/2023 with a scheduled delivery date per the company 4/11/2023 I checked the tracking number that was provided to me which had a scheduled delivery date of 4/10/2023. After both of those dates came to pass I contacted the business inquiring about my order and spoke with a CSR by the name of ***** who was not only rude told me bottom line I just have to wait for my order. I asked for corporate number which she provided the wrong number and not a way to be able to reference the call besides her name today is 4/14/2023 and I still have not received my item or any updated information to when I should be expecting it. I would never place another order with TJ Maxx neither do I recommend anyone else to.

      I went to TJ Maxx ******************** which i believe should be under the selected business. The person at the register asked me if i want to be a rewards member which would qualify me for a 10% discount and 5% in the future, i said yes and had to fill out some details including my SSN, at which point I asked the employee if that is gonna hit my credit and if it is for the credit card, where he told me that no, its just to make sure no one uses the discount twice. Turns out it was for a credit card, something I was signed up for, not only without my permission but after he specifically told me that this is not what its for. Strict action should be taken against such behavior and for misleading me.

      I purchased a ******************* multi clover necklace that was marked as 14k solid gold and also priced as solid gold but was actually 14k over silver. I purchased this sometime between May and early July 2022 before my vacation at the Monrovia store. I paid the price of similar 14k gold items then went on vacation. I only buy solid gold and was told and also misled by the tag. I go to TJMaxx a lot and buy only solid gold but never doubted the store. I also have been in the look out for this same piece for a gift since then. I finally found one which was marked correctly and priced correctly at $59.99 at the Glendale store. I talked to the sales associate there and asked her if they have ever sold that as gold and priced between at $129.99 or $$159.99 as I recall paying. I am 100% certain because I only buy solid gold. She mentioned she hadnt and they have only had non-solid gold 14k over silver. I freaked out and she mentioned to me to go home and check the stamp. I did rush home completely scared and disgusted that I may have been duped and misled. I brought out a magnifying glass and low and behold it wasnt 14k solid gold. I was duped and misled and overcharged. I tried looking for the receipt but no longer have it. I did call the store to explain the situation but they said they cannot go back to their records to see. This is pretty disgusting pretty much counterfeit gold. I paid the $100 plus premium for 14k gold but was misled due to the mismatched item. The store manager also said it is the distribution center that puts the price tags on, but we all know that people can switch them or out the wrong ones if they happen to fall off. I am disgusted I was duped and they cant go back into their records to allow me to return this item. I paid for a solid gold item which was actually not gold and incorrectly priced and ***** I am down now $150-$160. I would never have bought a counterfeit dupe item.

      I purchased a lamp which broke by my own carelessness. I tried to reach out to Home Sense customer service and had no luck. I am trying to get a replacement shade of glass or asking for a courtesy to return the item or a gift card to buy a new one. The retail value is $27. If you search under my email you can see that I have made many purchases. Please extend this courtesy to me.

      I ordered a pair of Asolo boots from Sierra.com on December 26, 2022. They are supposed to be waterproof for 2 years and they leaked on a hike two weeks ago. I sent them everything they requested, and they are stating that since they were worn, and that I have had them for over 40 days, they will not refund my money. Please help. Item order number is:E39743598 and case number is:CS7532224. I have emails I can provide when you ask. I can't figure out how to attach them here. Thank you very much.

      I order a lot from HomeGoods. Spend thousands. Place $200+ orders MONTHLY online. I ordered a lion sculpture. They threw in a box NO wrapping, didn't bother to put a shred of protection on it. Came to me smashed. I called the store because often times they have the same items in the store. The girl who answered got an attitude with me, snapped at me. I was HUNG up on. She told me they had one person on the floor and I basically was not important and then was hung up on again. I am in disbelief and shock. THIS is how you treat a customer? I Want TWO lions shipped to me, wrapped and a gift card. Or I will escalate this with the media. I am in absolute anger and disbelief I was treated this way AFTER the negligence of having an expensive item thrown in a box without being wrapped KNOWING it was going to break. I am disabled, and what this has done to me is tremendous. I better get compensated
