For Christmas this year (December 25th, 2022) I received the square halo ring from pandora as a promise ring from my partner.
Just 2 days after receiving the ring (on December 27th, 2022) there is already a gem missing from the band of the ring. Upset that there is already issues, I went to my local pandora (location: ****** **** in Oshawa Ontario, CA) and showed them the ring.
The manager told me the ring was compromised, and that I had "squished" the ring, it was no longer the same shape, and that it would not fall inline with warranty.
I asked what could be done about this, because I had only been wearing the ring for 2 days, and had not done anything to damage the ring. I took it off to shower, wash my hands, and while sleeping to prevent this from happening.
After asking what could be done, The manager told me that I definitely didnt receive this ring for Christmas, that I was lying, and have had this ring for a while, and that I was trying to get a new one for free under the warranty, and was told to leave the store.
I'm now stuck with a damaged ring promise ring and a low self esteem after being in this store.
I'm so disappointed and discouraged about going back to the store to deal with this.
Since I've only had the ring for two days, I expect them to honour the 30 warranty and replace my ring.Business Response

After trying to place an online order for several days my order finally went thru on Friday 12/23. On Saturday I went to pick up my order after driving an hour to get there to find out the store closed for the day I tried reaching customer service but after 20 minutes on hold I hung up. So much for getting the two Christmas presents I had ordered. On Monday I received an email that my order was canceled I called the store and the sales rep who answered was rude and told me to call customer service. I proceeded to call customer service and after a half hour I was told my order would not be canceled and I could pick it Tuesday evening (today 12/27). So before I drove another hour I called to make sure the store was open and was told they were closing at 3:30 instead of the normal time so I leave work to get there only to find out my order was canceled again. The sales rep was no help and her response was it wasn't her fault and wanted me to repay for an order that was already paid for. I work in customer service and have for over 30 years. The customer service I have received from your company has been awful. I proceeded to call your customer service number again to be told they would give me a code for 10% off to replace my order. The 10% doesn't even cover the discount from the coupon I used. I now have two presents that were ruined thanks to your company and the awful customer service along with a refund l have to wait for since you canceled the order. As for the discount I was to receive by email to replace my order I have yet to get.Business Response

I purchased Christmas items yesterday online at 11:22 AM for pick up at your store in Northlake mall in Charlotte North Carolina. I never received an email confirming that my items were ready for pick up, so I drove to the store at around 6:30 PM. there was a line specifically for online orders, and the young lady named diamond, who was a sales lead was extremely rude and indifferent. When I arrived at the store and provided my order number, the order had not been picked. She came back to me numerous times, noting that the bracelet that I ordered and paid for online was not in stock, even though the item was available
at the time that my online order was placed. I asked her numerous times which of the rose gold bracelets were in stock. She shrugged her shoulders and said that I would have to tell her which bracelet I wanted to look at. three times she came back to me and advised that the item that I selected was not available. My mother attended the store with me and attempted to engage her about her pregnancy in order to Soften her demeanor, but she continued to be curt and rude. There was a sale running online and I ended up having to get a refund for the bracelet that I ordered and purchased another bracelet at a higher price. When I inquired with her about the sales price being accommodated, she shrugged her shoulders and advised that I would need to contact customer service about my online order. In addition, I would have to wait 7 to 10 days to be refunded for the bracelet that I already paid for. My experience at the store was reprehensible to say the least. I am confused as to why there is an availability for store pick up if the order is not going to be picked until I arrive at the store almost 8 hours later to retrieve my paid for items, I would also like to be compensated for the pricing difference. Your expedient response will be greatly appreciated.Business Response

On December 22nd I made an online purchase for pick-up at the Bayshore Pandora Store. The email promotion guaranteed that the order could be picked up within 4 hours if ordered before December 24th, unfortunately I did not get my order pick-up confirmation until 5:55PM at which I went directly to the store.
Upon arrival to the store there was a sign on the door that the store had closed at 4:30PM that day and would reopen the following day at 10AM.
Prior to going to the store I called and there was no voicemail notice that the store had closed early not was it noted in my email.
In addition to it being zero degrees outside we were also in the midst of a snowstorm so be notified that I could pick-up my order when in reality the store was not opened is upsetting.Business Response

I placed an order on pandora website for in store pick up. To go there twice to see a sign saying it's closed until further notice. The company is allowing orders to be placed when the store is closed, and no one is communicating with costumers regarding refunds. It's Christmas time and people are coming and lined up for their orders they placed online and have questions. This is a problem and costumers won't get items on time and aren't offered refunds or alternatives. This is by far very unprofessional, and no transparency is provided at all.Business Response

I placed my order 11/26/22, order# PNDXXXXXXXX, payment was taken from my account immediately and posted 11/30/22. I received a shipment email 11/28/22 for shipment thru Lasership tracking# 1SCZIJXXXXXLQE but it has never updated and still to this day only states the carrier is awaiting the package from the seller since 11/28 at 4:57am and I have not received anything. I've contacted Pandora thru the online chat several times 12/12/22, 12/14/22, 12/1622 and 12/20/22 and each time each rep acknowledged the issue of no package actually shipped and stated it was being escalated, could not provide any real season of what's going on other than a shipment issue. Each follow up stated that nothing was previously escalated or handled and my last contact 12/20 i stayed online over an hour for rep Jarvis to "make sure this is handled today for me" and at the end of the conversation stated my reship confirmation email was on the way to me for next day shipping.... I've received nothing other than an email for 20% off my next order and that was yesterday at 8:06am mst. This was a Christmas gift that will not be here on time and should have been after over 3 weeks. I want a full refund of the $294.57 paid for these items never received and never shipped.Business Response

We recently made an online purchase #*********** with Pandora as a holiday gift. When I (we) tried to immediately (within minutes) update the shipping address on the website to my current mailing address, Seller refused to make the change. As a result, I did not receive the package and have yet to receive the items I paid for. I believe that I have a valid claim under the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act (815 ILCS 505/1 et seq.). This law provides protection for consumers against deceptive or fraudulent business practices, and I believe that the seller's refusal to update the shipping address constitutes a deceptive and unreasonable business practice. Equally, the order was apparently shipped to the State of Florida. I believe that I have a valid claim under Florida state law, specifically under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (FDUTPA) (F.S. 501.201 et seq.). This law provides protection for consumers against deceptive or unfair business practices, and I believe that the seller's refusal to update the shipping address constitutes an unfair
business practice. I request that the BBB issue a chargeback for the full amount of the transaction. Please let me know if you need any additional information or documentation to support my request. The order was charm bracelets which will, obviously, will not make it as holiday gifts. Thank you for your attention to this matter.Business Response

Good Day,
Unfortunately once an order is entered, our system does not allow for changes. There has been no deception as the original shipping information on the order is what was provided to us by the customer. As of December 13th, 2022 the customer has been refunded in the full amount of $178.92 for the order that was not received. We apologize for any inconveniences this has caused.

Reached out to Pandora on 12/14 as an item I purchased almost a month prior had not arrived yet. They promised at 30% off coupon and refund on my items. The coupon I received was not valid and not for the correct discount. Reached out again and was told I would not be receiving a coupon for the correct amount.Business Response

I placed an online order on 11/27/2022 attempting to stay ahead of the Christmas rush. I have been reaching out communicating with their online virtual auto response regarding the status of my order and am continuously referred to delivery status that states awaiting delivery on one end with an order date of 11/30/2022 while my actual receipt confirms I placed my online order on 11/27/2022. I have never had this problem with pandora and after reading all of the BBB complaints I am concerned about being robbed. I used my pandora credit credit issued by synchrony bank who has already sent me a bill for items I have not received. I tried contacting customer service 5 different occasions however no one ever picks up the phone. As I am writing this complaint, I remain on hold for a total time now of 27 minutes. I would like a full refund as I have not received my order and know at this time, I am more than likely not going to get it. Customer service is poor, and Pandora need to figure out a better way to handle orders and communicate with customers.
My tracking number is PSCXXXXXC5C71
Indicates shipper created label on 11/30/2022@ 8:31am, package not yet received. My order number is PNDXXXXXXXX. Please make this make sense. Please refund my purchase by reversing charges applied to my synchrony bank Pandora credit card.Business Response

On November 22, 2022 I ordered a few charms during a sale online. I noticed around December 7th that I haven't received my items. I kept checking my email and all I seen was it was shipped through a company I never heard of called Pandorin. Everyday I checked the estimated delivery date, it changed. I was on hold waiting for a customer service representative for several days holding on almost an hour. When I finally got to someone he stated that my order was going to be escalated when he clearly could see that my order was never delivered. At this point I'm starting to think I got scammed. When I called again I was not able to reach a representative. I never had this problem before and now I'm having a very difficult time. I want my items because they are Christmas gifts and now I'm not sure if I will even receive them. So unprofessional of this company.Business Response
