I received an email offer from Pandora to purchase $140 worth of merchandise and receive a free bracelet valued at $90. I placed the online order and received confirmation from my credit card. However, an hour later I received an alert saying the entire order has been cancelled, with exception of 1 item. I contacted customer service and the representative told me that I could not speak with a supervisor and there was nothing I can do. She told me to go back online and make the purchase again to receive the items and that my card would be refunded within 7 days. This is fraud and false advertising. I don't have additional funds to make a new order, nor the time due to it being Christmas gift for my childrenBusiness Response

We have apologized to the customer for the cancellation of their items and explained that once items are cancelled we cannot offer to reship because a refund is automatically processed. We have sent the customer a 15% discount code and an e-gift card for the amount of the free item they were supposed to receieve as a courtesy.Initial Complaint

On 12/17/24 I made an online purchase. Pandora had a promotion that you get a free bracelet when making a purchase of $135+, which I met the requirement. Pandora also gave me a 15% off birthday reward. I applied the reward, my cart still said that I would get the free bracelet. After submitting the order, my cart was then adjusted and bracelet removed. I chatted with a customer service *****, that apologized and stated I will receive a gift card for $85 for the inconvenience within the hour. Four hours later I noticed I never received the gift card. I chatted again. The second ***** stated that they could see that eight card was approved but it can sometimes take a few days to receive the email. I save both transcripts. On 12/18/24 I received an email stating that my total was reduced below the requirement after applying the birthday reward they provided me. Therefore giving 15% off coupon. I chatted again. The ***** told first told me I will get the gift card in a few days, then came back to say it was denied and they will not honor what the prior *****s promised me. No where did it say if I use the birthday reward I would not get the bracelet. Non of the customer service *****s advised me of this either. Now it is too late to adjust the order. The ***** stated I can return and repurchase, but of course the promotion is ending. Not to mention extremely inconvienent to me. I have never seen a business that offers you something and take it back. Very distasteful and poor customer service.Business Response

On 01/25/24 I purchased a Red ************* Murano Glass Dangle Charm. Last week my wife noticed that the Red Heart had fallen off the charm. I contacted the seller this morning and chatted with a representative named *******. After several attempts he said he could not find my order number and to email my documentation to Pandora. He also told me to call ************ which I did several times but was never connected with a representative. There is a one year warranty on the charms so I am anxious to get this resolved before it expires.Business Response

I am very disappointed in pandora. I started buying from them about two years ago, so I am relatively new customer. I purchase birthday gifts for my daughter. (Her birthday is Christmas Eve). Last year on ************ I purchased her the firefly charm among other things. Within a year the stone in the firefly fell out. For her birthday I asked to get her bracelet cleaned. I took her bracelet and noticed the stone was gone. She said it had fallen out while ago. I asked Pandora if they could fix it and since it was now Dec and I had purchased in Nov they would not replace the stone but stated I could rebuy it and I would need all the parts. Ridiculous for a know issue this piece. My daughters boyfriend also purchased her a promise ring from Pandora and it didnt fit her. Within 30 days I took it back for her to exchange for a new size since he had purchased a size too big. They stated they would not exchange because it appeared to be worn. I told them she tried to wear it for a day but it was too big. They said I would have to call and fill out a form to request an approval to exchange. Her boyfriend was pretty upset too. The customer service here is just so poor. Im really disappointedBusiness Response

Purchase a couple of items from Pandora for my wife and product is completely ruined. Went numerous time bought more cleaning products for it as the claim will fix it and no it just made worst.Customer Answer

Prodigals tarnish for the amount of money that we spent on this product and them to guaranteed that the product won’t get bad like it did and then for us to take it to the jewelry shop, then clean it and for them to look at until there’s nothing that they can do after we spent over $400 on their product Well the clarification do we need. I refuse to acknowledge it. They refuse to take accountability for it and it’s like oh OK here just spent another $95 on the charm here just spent another hundred dollars on a bracelet. That’s not customer service.Business Response

Transaction date, 11 3024 fraudulent order was placed on my account use my credit card. I contacted Pandora several times to let them know this. I asked him to stop the shipment to cancel the order to reroute the shipment. I even offered to have a ride it to my house and I would return it. Needless to say nothing was done, and I received a confirmation that the thief was successful and received his product I even got approved for delivery with a picture from ***. I asked him to contact *** and have them sub the shipment because *** would not let me do it since I was not the shipper I was ignored and they basically told me just to deal with my bank. Total value was $270 plus expedited shipping drove my account negative. I had several damages to catch up on bills Pandora did not hear at all that you said who cares your bank will refund you. I asked to have somebody contact me. I have yet to hear from anybody. They had told me there was notes on my order and that should be good enough.Business Response

We sincerely apologize for the experience youve had regarding this fraudulent order. Typically, once an order is placed and shipped, address changes cannot be made, though we do our best to intercept orders when possible. Unfortunately, there are instances where *** is unable to catch the package in time, and it is delivered.
Since the order has now been delivered, we recommend reaching out to your bank to initiate a dispute. This will allow the refund process to be handled promptly through their channels. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, if you need further assistance, please dont hesitate to reach out.

I am rejecting this response because: This is the generic response I received from the Chat line and the **** which tells me Pandora is not taking this complaint serious, we have reached out to our back. What I am asking is for monetary response from Pandora, because we contacted within seconds of receipt of order confirmation, therefore had not shipped yet and we were also told that the shipement was stopped which was a lie!!!

I placed an order today that included a gift. I was able to select the gold bracelet with a size of 6.7. When the order was paid I received and email with confirmation that didnt include the gift. I called and escalated the call and spoke to Junior employee number ***** and he advised me there was a discount on the order that removed the gift after it processed. I advised I didnt add any discount. The supervisor advised me that the system will process the order with the gift but remove it once payment is processed once the system recognizes it isnt eligible. I advised that is FRAUD. If Im seeing all the items at check out and then pay then your system removed the item without warning or advising me there is an issue that is fraud. Im believing Im going to get what the checkout is advising and if other wise its FRAUD. I would like my gift to be honored and sent. I will escalate this with my bank for fraud if this is not rectified. Also the supervisor was on the call mocking my accent and not making any sense. I would like the call listened to and a callbackBusiness Response
Date: 12/12/2024
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience regarding your order and the removal of your bracelet. A discount was applied to your order because you created an account, but unfortunately, this caused the bracelet to be removed as it did not qualify for the discount. We also apologize for the service you received from our customer service team and want to assure you that we are taking steps to ensure this does not happen again.
On December 5th, we issued an e-gift card for the value of the bracelet so that you can repurchase the item or select another item of your choice. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please dont hesitate to reach out to us.

Hello *****,
Thank you for contacting Pandora Jewelry.
We have received your complaint through the Better Business Bureau, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you have encountered during this process.
Regrettably, as per our policy, price adjustments cannot be applied to items purchased before any promotions are announced. Since your items were purchased on November 15th and the 50% off Black Friday sale began on November 29th, the items purchased on November 15th are ineligible for this promotion, as the sale began two weeks after your purchase.
We truly value you as a customer and appreciate your understanding. As a gesture of goodwill, we would like to offer you a 20% discount code for a future online purchase.
If you would like to receive the discount code, please reply to this email, and it will be sent to you within 24 hours of your response.
Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

Order # ***********
On November 20th, I purchased this item online and chose size 1 for pickup at a nearby store. I arrive to pick it up on the store only to find out it’s too small and I needed a size 2. I inform the sales representative and he said it’s final sale let me ask a manager. The manager, never approached me, never made eye contact and simple said “It’s final sale, nothing we can do, it is what it is”.
The sales rep provided me a customer service number to call for a resolution, he assured me they would be able to help. The number provided was ###-###-#### and to my surprise it had prompts but after you select an option it’s dead air. I googled the number to Pandora and called ###-###-#### and spoke to a representative who provided me a case #******** and said she cannot do anything except provide me a discount code for a future purchase!
I completely understand its final sale and I am not asking for a refund, but if the item doesn’t fit it should be available to exchange for a bigger size. The online size description is inaccurate. No one has compassion or empathy in this situation! I genuinely feel I donated my hard earned money to Pandora! The item is smaller than usual compared to my other three bracelets, please see the attached photos.
I am hoping you would be available to assist me.
I have emailed the Pandora team on Nov 22, 2024 and no response yet.Business Response

I placed an order PNDCA02561880 on 11/20/2024, I received the wrong size fo rSparkling Pink Bow Ring that's out of stock in-store and online. I brought it up to a live agent and was told I would receive a 10% coupon, why would I spend more money as opposed to rectifying the situation at hand? This was purchased as a gift. I ordered a 4.5 and I received a 5. It seems a bit money-hungry opposed to an actual resolution. Not to mention the FINAL SALE - Domed Golden Heart Ring has turned my finger green, Pandora has gone downhill and all they have to offer is a 10% discount you can already get or a gift card. I would like my money returned how it was paid.Customer Answer

Pandora sent me an email to repurchase the ring, despite sending me the incorrect size and despite the ring being OUT OF STOCK.
