  We went to Hobby Lobby in ************* to have some Art work matted and framed. We rang the silver bell for service in the ******************* My mother rang the bell twice because we had been waiting for a few minutes and was unsure if anyone heard us the bell the first time. My 3 year old grandson rang the bell once very lightly because he is 3 years old and curious! A man came out of the back and I immediately thought that he appeared to have been sleeping or he was intoxicated. He seemed confused! I started to tell him we needed to have pictures matted and framed but he reached over the counter and tore the silver bell that was attached to the counter with Velcro off. He yelled at my daughter that People need to control their children My mother tried to explain that she was the one who rang the bell. The man became very angry and began yelling at my mother and my daughter which frightened my grandson. The man began posturing my daughter and got into her face continuing to yell. He was so close to her that his spittle from yelling was hitting her in the face! We were all very frightened for our safety and my grandson was terrified. The man was instantly so angry that his face was flaming red! The assistant manager came running at this time as I was reaching for my phone to call the police because I thought the employee was going to strike my daughter! The Assistant Manager was extremely condescending with us initially but had to make the employee leave the area because he was still behaving aggressively. We left the store and immediately called the Corporate Offices of Hobby Lobby.

  I bought an 80$ tree on sale for 60$ it was the last one in store and it was on clearance with every other item last chance lable. It says light up tree. When I got home only part of the tree lit up. I contacted the business and she said why don't you drive 5 hours back to ******** **** from your residence in ********** and get a refund? I said because I have three kids I'd have to get a hotel and spend 75$ in gas to get a refund it's not worth it and not my fault you sold me a bad product that does not work. She since has ignored my emails. She told me two months ago quality department would reach out and they have not, I contacted multiple forms in the Hobby Lobby who are ignoring me now. All I want is a replacement or something for selling me a product that doesn't work. And she's basically telling me I shouldnt have bought it then because Hobby Lobby does not offer replacements or help for broken or not working products.. I have that screen shotted from her saying that to me.

  The customer contacted us on 1/4/24 and was referred back to the nearest Hobby Lobby store for refund/exchange of the defective product. I have reached out to the customer again through email and referred her back to the closest Hobby Lobby store for refund/exchange as we have several stores near her area in **********.

  I ordered 3 model truck kits online. I did not receive the ones i ordered. There excuse was they may alter the kit according to what they have in stock. That is false advertising. They either need to update the system or quit selling online.Basically ordering a *** OR ******** and getting BUICK or CAMARO as "their" substitute.They said they full filled their obligation due to their policies. Im sorry you can not post a picture online of one model brand and ship something completely different

  Business Response

  Date: 02/07/2024

  Dear Hobby Lobby Customer,
  
  We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced with your recent purchase. Our records indicate that Order #******** had items that are listed online as an assortment. Our website correctly indicates in multiple areas on the advertised product page as well as on the order confirmation screen, that the Style/Color is assorted and you may not receive what is pictured. It states that the item comes in assorted styles.While we make every effort to ensure items in stock are represented accurately online, at this time, we are unable to ensure that you will receive the item in the style you see pictured. Furthermore, the Style Example photo has an additional disclaimer. Note: Not all styles are represented in the photo.
  
  Reviewing the order notations, it appears we received an email on January 31st, letting us know the purchaser had an issue with the product. On the natations from February 5th, a replacement order for the correct items has been done and shipped to you. We have also provided a return label for you to send the unwanted merchandise back to us. We understand you are not satisfied with the assorted items you have purchased. We value you as a Hobby Lobby customer and appreciate your business.
  
  Sincerely,
  Hobby Lobby **************************

  On 12/28/2023 I brought in a very valuable 19"x25" painting purchased on a recent trip to *****. Knowing that Hobby Lobby has a great reputation for its lovely picture frames and customer service, we trusted them with this very cherished piece. We left the painting with a sales associate ************** On 1/11/2024 at 424pm we returned to pick up the framed painting only to find our painting was damaged due to mishandling. The painting was damaged with deep crease and wrinkles. When it was brought to ******* attention he gave me a very negative attitude and was extremely rude and said he would give a discount on the frame. The frame was ****** and offered to give a mere discount of 13.98$ No apology offered and his mannerism was abrasive, rude and condescending. The manager was called to have a discussion of this situation explaining how ******************* behaved. The manager apologized for ******* behavior and gave me slightly better discount off the frame.

  I ordered Christmas gifts from Hobby lobby and two separate occasions. The first order got sent back because the carrier tried to say I moved even though I still live exactly where I gave them the address. The second order never arrived and now Hobby lobby is refusing to give me a refund. It was not delivered to my house or to my neighbors. my sister lives on one side of me and my mother lives on the other side of me and neither received my package. Hobby Lobby is not refusing to give me my refund or resend the order even though I have given them pictures and proof that nothing was delivered. Order number. ********

  I went to the ******, ***** Hobby Lobby **** *******************, ******, ** this morning at 9AM. I went to Framing. No one is available in framing. I rang the bell. No one came so I tracked down an employee. She called ***** the store manager. ***** said no one would be in Framing till 10am. The store opens at 9 AM. ***** 'The store manager" would only talk to the employee. She never addressed me even though I am standing right there. The employee asked if She (*****) could help me. She said no. Framing will be in after 10 and walked away. The employee asked what about him and as she was walking away she said after 10. I have never seen such unprofessional and rude service. I had to come back after 10AM. I left work and came back. **** in Framing said I had to leave them and he would call me. I usually wait and they are done right while I wait. I left and **** Called me and said they were ready. I went into the store and picked them up. I have spent over ****** in the last 4 months getting prints and posters foam boarded. They always give me the ticket and let me go pay. Today **** said he had to walk me to the registers. He walked me up there and then he and the cashier whispered to each other. It was weird and uncomfortable. ***** never apologized. **** and no one from the store ever apologized. I was not offered an apology, a discount , etc. This is incredible. This is a ****************** Really? After spending all this money on Foam boarding and frames with Hobby Lobby I would expect better. I have shopped at this store weekly for over 10 years. I will never shop at this store again. Amazon or *******'s from now on. With the ***** today I am around ****** for 4 months as I buy frames, art supplies, etc. in addition to the foam boarding. I should have been given a discount and apologized to. The rude and unprofessional service and waste of my time is inexcusable. A refund and / or major discount is needed here. Horrible service. These are Biblical Principals??

  Hi yes my name is *************************** and I placed the order on December 31st for a total of 7 iron on cloth letters for my daughter's birthday party. I received that my order was processed and shipped last week and that it would be delivered last week. The delivery dates keep changing. I called hobby Lobby since that was the place that I ordered it from. I was then informed that as long as the shipping processor scans the label Hobby Lobby is unable to do anything Until the package is not scanned anymore. and at that point they have to wait 5 additional days before they can start to process a refund or to consider the package lost. My daughter was due to have a photo shoot on Thursday for her birthday and now we have an outfit that is undone due to the fact of Hobby Lobby's shipping. I was then told by one of Hobby Lobby's associates that it's on the Carrier and like I explained to her I didn't order this product from the Carrier I ordered it from hobby lobby and it should be you all's duty to keep your customers updated with the shipping information. I'm not doing this to ask for a refund or anything like that I'm doing it because I wanna let other customers know and also the supervisors of this company that the shipping that you guys do needs to be re-edited brought back to the table and done over again because this is unacceptable for customers to pay for a product and just don't receive it and your response to that is will we just have to wait that's unacceptable.

Hobby Lobby did not "address the customer's concerns."  Nothing has been addressed or resolved.  I'm shocked that I'm having to communicate with Hobby Lobby through the Better Business Bureau.  I've never filed a complaint.  Every other corporation that I patronize has decent customer service and communication.  I'm beyond shocked and disappointed with Hobby Lobby.

Or let me respond to their message.  I reached out to you about a week ago because I hadnt heard anything.  The said they sent the letter a while ago.  That is simply not true. For total transparency, I should be able to respond.

  Bought three garlands from hobby lobby on 12/19/2023 and returned them on 12/22/2023. But was charged again on same day. for them according to my banking information $65.49. The items without the sales tax of seven percent is $61.20. So at this point in time I dont have *********** but am out $65.49. Since this was charged through a credit card without my permission they would be guilty of credit card fraud.

  The customer contacted us directly and was informed that the only transactions our records show are the original charge of $183.26 on 12/19/23, and his refund of $65.49 on 12/22/23. We explained to the customer that our records do not show any other transactions or charges on his card. We referred him to follow up with his bank/card company for further assistance..

  Ordered a $100 gift card back in late November. The banner on their website stated free shipping on orders of $50 or more. There were no exceptions stated, nor an asterisk to lead you to exceptions, nor links, nothing to say there are exceptions. At the end of my order I see a shipping charge of $1. While you can say it is only $1, it is false advertising and Im sure those shipping dollars add up. I wanted them to honor their promotion, but my evidence was ignored and their documentation of where it was stated that gift cards were not eligible was never evident nor provided. Two emails sent to Hobby Lobby CS. First HL reply was: Hello, ****. you for contacting us. I have located order # ******** and see that the gift card is not eligible for free shipping therefore you were correctly charged shipping.My reply:Please look at your banner on the attached screenshot. It states orders over $50 ship free. It does not state there are exceptions, no asterisk to direct you to any exceptions. Please honor your offer of free shipping on orders over $50, without exception.Second HL reply:I have provided a hyperlink to this email where it can be located stating Gift Cards are not eligible for free shipping. With that statement we cannot assist with the $1.00 refund.******************************************************************************************************** My reply:Your hyperlink says nothing about gift cards being charged for shipping. All I find is a statement on how they will be shipped under "Shipping Charges and Methods" which states "Gift Cards are mailed via **** 1st Class Mail and can take up to 10-business days to be received. Gift Cards are also subject to carrier delays due to high mail volume". Link was not noted/directed to in the banner offer, but even that is moot because it does not say that gift cards are exempt from this free shipping offer!? Had my fill of nobody looking at my screen shot of your offer or reading my emails. Will contact the BBB.

  Dear Hobby Lobby Customer,
  
  We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced with your recent purchase. It states on the Gift Card product page and as well at checkout that there is an additional shipping charge of $1.00; when it states this on our website, that means the item is not eligible for free shipping. This information is provided within our Shipping Time page for customers to review prior to submitting an order. Gift Cards are not eligible for free shipping. I have included the link to where to find this information.********************************************************************************************************

  Gift Cards are mailed via **** 1st Class Mail and can take up to 10-business days to be received. Gift Cards are also subject to carrier delays due to high mail volume."

  
  Has any of your staff even looked at the page this link takes you to??? Where on this page does it state gift cards are not eligible for your free shipping offer???
  
  Again, your banner also says nothing about gift cards being ineligible for the free shipping offer at any price. Banner is even seen at the top pf the page on my final invoice after charging $1 shipping!?

  Dear Hobby Lobby Customer,
  
  We have tested the ******************************************************************************************************** link that was sent in the response and it does go to the correct page on our website.I have provided a screenshot of the information.
  
  Our banner does not provide information about what items qualify and what items do not qualify for free shipping. The additional shipping charge is located on the product page. It also states this on our checkout page. I have provided screenshots of that information as well.
  
  Sincerely,
  Hobby Lobby Ecommerce Customer Service

  Complaint: ********
  
  I am rejecting this response because: Link was not provided to qualify the offer and one of the attachments supplied by Hobby Lobby in their last reply says it is a processing fee. They are now changing what it is called. 

  Uncle, I now understand they will never be at fault particularly when links are provided after the order and the shipping charge is now called a processing fee.

  Won't be going back to their site.
  
  Sincerely,
