      I ordered a new Vinyl Record from Urban Outfitters on January 31st 2023. When I received said vinyl it appears to be opened and used. This is not what I paid for, what I did pay for was a brand new unopened product. When I brought this up to customer service I was met with some solutions but they did not seem to understand that I was shipped something used and possibly scratched. I would ideally like an exchange but the record is completely sold out on their website. When I asked for a full refund they said they best they can do is a 20% refund. I have attached two screenshots below from my conversations with them. Thank you for the help and if you need any more information please let me know!

      Urban outfitters shipped my order placed on January 29th of this year. Their preferred courier they use marked order as delivered to my front porch as if 2/1/23. I do not have a front porch. I contacted their customer service department. They wont replace my order and told me that they willingly know the courier they use marks orders delivered even if they are not and wont resend my order even though i have paid for products not received. I want them to be penalized for their business practices of allowing false i formation to be used to defend them stealing money from customers.

      Hello *********! We apologize that you have not yet received your package. Tracking details show this package as being delivered on February 1, 2023. Although tracking details may show that the order was delivered, our experience with this courier has been that their website may show a delivery before the actual delivery is made. In this case, please allow 2 business days for your package to arrive, and contact us if you have still not received the order in that timeframe for further assistance. We apologize for any inconvenience.

      I purchased a sweater for my daughter the week before Christmas (89$) as a Christmas gift. I ordered her a size medium. I was aware that the sweater was not returnable as it came from the marketplace. However, the Sweater sent me was an extra large. I called immediately expressed my concerns. I understood it was not returnable however, it was the incorrect size. I just wanted the correct size. Unfortunately, there was no more left. They emailed the seller from marketplace who refuse to refund me. They escalated it to a higher position. I was sent a shipping label and told urban outfitters was going to accept sweatshirt back for a full refund. I sent the sweatshirt to the address listed on the shipping label. I waited two weeks I called back I tracked the package. It was at the Philadelphia warehouse. Then I was told I was not being refunded so now I am out an $89 sweatshirt and a refund.

      Hello,

      I see the customer has called in and spoken with one of our supervisors on Wednesday, February 1, 2023. We informed that an email has been sent to the warehouse to locate and return the Vintage ********** Football Crewneck. Also, the customers' concern about the mispack item and the declined refund from the seller have been escalated to our home office. At this time, we have to wait for a response from our home after they speak with ******* and ******(seller).

      Hello I placed an order for 3 ***** **** puffer jackets in a size medium on around the 20th of December and too my dismay I received 3 size XL's and as such I returned them with the provided shipping label I got from urban outfitters however it's been almost a month and I have yet to get a refund from urban outfitters they claim the warehouse has not received my return even though tracking says delivered at the end of the day I only had to do the return because of their ineptitude and giving me the wrong sizes I sent pictures of the wrong sizes I got and as such was granted a free return label from urban outfitters this is a near 1000$ order and they are holding my money hostage I want a refund or my size medium jackets because this is ridiculous and quite frankly unfair

      I purchased an item for $49.77 on December 31 with a **** gift card and was told that it would be delivered by the 4th of January. After my purchase, I threw away the gift card because there was no remaining balance. When it never arrived, I talked to someone in Urbans customer service and they apologized for the delay in delivery and told me they would refund me for the shipping. When I explained to them that I no longer had the card because it was a gift card, they told to me contact ****. Then, a few days later I got a refund notice fo the whole order which explained that my card would be refunded and I did not have to return the item. I went again to their customer service and explained that I no longer had the card and asked if I could have store credit instead. The customer service agent told me that they would put in a request for store credit which has since been denied. I called the shipping company and asked if my items would be delivered since Urban said I could keep the item when It came in and the shipping company told me they never received the item, so it would not be delivered. The only recommendation that Urban gave me was to call **** and figure out how to get my money back, but I don't have the card numbers, so I am unable to get my money back.

      Unfortunately, we will not be able to reverse the refund from your original form of payment to a gift card. Once a return is completed, we cannot modify or change the return. We suggest that you contact **** for assistance with retrieving your refund. We apologize for any inconvenience.

      Urban outfitters is unwilling to honor their sale price and cancels orders.contacted customer service and was told by supervisor that they admittedly marked the art prints for sale too low and were not going to honor the sales prices I paid and were can canceling all my orders instead. This was over a weak after the order was placed and paid in full. They are available, theyre just not going to honor the price and fulfill my order.

      Business Response

      I apologize for the error on our website and for the inconvenience it has caused you. However, per our Terms of Use (****************************************************), Urban Outfitters has the right to cancel any orders placed for a product listed at the incorrect price. 

      Typographical Errors
      In the event an Urban Outfitters product is listed at an incorrect price due to typographical error or systems error, Urban Outfitters shall have the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for product listed at the incorrect price. Urban Outfitters shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. If your credit card has already been charged for the purchase and your order is canceled, Urban Outfitters shall issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount of the incorrect price.

      Urban Outfitters doesn't charge for your order until it ships, so you have not been charged for the prints. What you may have seen on your account is an authorization. This is just the systems way of confirming the funds are available. The authorization comes off your account within 1 to 3 business days.

       Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because:it's unethical and egregious. You are not honoring the purchase contract and canceled over a week after processing to ship. you sold me the art prints with your advertised promotion of sale on sale and accepted the agreed upon amount. It was accepted and I was provided the message the vendor was preparing shipment for over a week. 

      I then received a generic email stating the multiple purchases were being canceled and to contact customer service with questions. I contacted customer service to 
      be told that urban outfitters didn’t make enough from the sale of these prints and was not going to honor the price and was canceling all the art prints ordered. You received good and valuable tender and to honor your advertised and promoted price is not ruinous to your business its unethical business not to.

      The issue with the prints was they were priced incorrectly on the website (human error). The error was noticed and then corrected. All orders placed with the incorrect price were cancelled. Unfortunately, we are unable to honor the price.

       Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because:the error was not corrected. It was only certain frame options that were on sale and tiger for qualifying for sale on sale. My order showed vendor processing to ship for over a week and still shows that for two prints as of right now. That entire time, they were still available for purchase in all framing options with only one framing option on sale even after the sale on sale promotion ended. Your email says you’re canceling all 5 because you won’t honor the sales price. I’ve spent $$$$$ with UO, Free People, Anthropologie and 
      Terrain just the past year alone and this unethical decision is ruining this customer relationship. Just because your terms give you the right to not honor your prices, doesn’t make it right or good business.

      I am rejecting this response because:
      You are able but are unwillingly to honor your sales prices for the five separate, different art prints. Your decision not to fulfill my order(s) is ruining this customer relationship with your entire family of businesses. I wont be shopping at Anthropologie, free people, urban outfitters or terrain again. So I wont be using an arbitrary discount code instead of receiving my honestly ordered promoted sale items. This is unethical business and no way to treat a valued customer.

      We understand the frustration associated with this situation.  We emailed all affected customers regarding the situation and explained that the art print(s) that wase ordered was mistakenly offered for sale due to a system error and that the item is not currently for sale and we must cancel the order.  In that same email we provided customers with a unique promotional code for 10% off and Free shipping on their next Urban Outfitters order to make up for our mistake.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

      The only resolutions I will accept are 1) a refund or 2) receiving the item I ordered.

      The last I heard from Urban was Wed. Jan. 25th. I was told that they reached out to the vendor about the incorrect item I have been receiving but I have heard nothing since. There has been no resolution as of yet.

      I would like an update on the status here please.

      It has been two weeks since opening this complaint and two months since I first ordered this product. I still have not received a solution and am growing more and more frustrated. The only time I even get a response from the company is when I write a message here. If you cannot remedy this situation by providing me with the item I ordered two months ago, then just go ahead issue me a refund. The amount of time I have had to waste to deal with this is ludicrous. I have had to set aside time from my workday multiple times now and I can no longer fight with a company over a $70 picture. 

      Regards,

      I will provide in the form of a timeline:11/3/2022 - I placed an online order with said company. The amount was $83.19.11/5/2022 - I received said order. 12/27/2022 - I started an online return and printed the label the company provided and requested a refund.12/29/2022 - I returned the item using the label provided by the company. The company charges $5.00 to use their label.Between 1/2/2023-1/9/2023 - I was unable to track return.1/9/2023 - Online chat agent advised that there was an issue and "tracking was broken." I could no longer track return.1/17/2023 - I contacted the company. I was advised that the package had been "mis-sorted" on 1/12/2023, and that I would hear from them by the end of the day. Employee confirmed I would receive a refund. 1/17/2023 - I received an E-gift card via email. 1/18/2023 - I did an online chat and agent advised that I could not be refunded as I did not return item in 30 day return period. I advised that per their website under return policies, any item purchased between 11/1/2022 and 12/24/2022, will be refunded to the original payment when returned before 2/28/2023. Agent advised that I would receive a refund within 3-5 days. 1/20/2023 - I checked the status of my refund. Agent indicated that there was nothing in records showing to change from E-Card to a refund, as I am entitled. I then asked for a manager and was transferred to *****************************  - Customer Service Supervisor. She advised she would contact their "Financial Team" to check and see what could be done. ******************** advised she typically hears from the team within an hour. It has not been 4.5 hours and I do not have a refund. Urban Outfitters has their returned item, with tags attached, and they also have my money. I have been lied to multiple times during this process. They confirmed today that there was never anything put in to change from E-Card to refund. They are misleading and fraudulent.

      I purchased an item for $96.47 on 11/25/2022 and an item for $19.76 on 11/27/22. I returned both items in the same box. I received 2 emails from Urban Outfitters on 01/10/2023 that my return had been received and I would receive a refund in my original form of payment which was ********. I received another email shortly after that I would receive a merchandise credit. I immediately called Urban Outfitters and was told that I would receive a refund in the original form of payment but that never happened. I have conversed and chatted with this company on 4 occasions and still have not received my refund in the original form of payment. Urban Outfitters Holiday return policy states, We're extending our return and exchange window for the holiday season. Purchases made between November 1st, 2022 and December 24th, 2022 will be eligible for return or exchange untilFebruary 28th, 2023. I was within the return guidelines. Im looking for assistance with my refund. This company is not living up to their stated return policy.
