      I ordered a ************************* bracelet, order number WN *********, as a gift for my sister from the on line Neiman Marcus website on Sept 7th. I was told it was in stock. I received information that it would arrive on Sept 12th. When it did not arrive, I called the ** ***** number. Was told they were sorry. Given a 15% reduction in price and an offer to overnight it for delivery the next day as now the gift was delayed so it would arrive on Sept 13. When it did not arrive on Sept 13 I called and the agent apologized again and gave me a $25 reduction on price and said it would now arrive on Sept 14. Once again it did not arrive and I was given another 15% off and now it it supposed to arrive on Sept 20th. This is odd and suspicious behavior. SoI did some research on line and it seems there are many customers that are getting the same delay tactics as I am. And that their orders end up being cancelled. I believe these are illegal and deceptive sales practices. I want my merchandise or I want a coupon that gives me the same item for the price my bracelet has been reduced to for the delays and aggravation I've gone through so I can purchase this item at the bricks and mortar ** store. The bracelet is now reduced to $105.05 shipped to ********. Item # **S21_Y5VD1 Eat

      I placed an order with Neiman Marcus via their website on August 26,2022. (Order #WNXXXXXXXXXXX) I received an email from Neiman Marcus confirming the order with additional detail of "Delivery Signature Required". I felt safe and comfortable seeing that. Well, long story short FedEx dropped a pair of 600$ jeans off at my front door without getting ANY signature. Low and behold the package was missing within a few hours of me coming home to retrieve the package. I checked in with all my neighbors in my building, I couldn't locate the package. I called Neiman Marcus and made them aware of the situation and the lady on the phone went on to say that the Delivery signature required is not on their behalf its on FedEx's behalf. Well, according to the confirmation email, Neiman Marcus clearly indicated that a signature was required for a delivery to be completed. When I informed the lady of that she went on too say she will re open the claim to obtain proof of delivery. You can obtain proof of delivery by entering the tracking number on the FedEx website. This shows they did not snag a signature from ME or ANYBODY at the building to receive the package. Ultimately I never received the package and haven't heard back from Neiman Marcus. I've been constantly calling and never getting through. It is in the best interest of the company to keep trust in their customers. Whether FedEx or Neiman Marcus is responsible that is beyond me, I paid for merchandise and never received it. Special instructions were incurred by the merchant themselves, they were not followed and of course I didn't receive the package. If a buyer orders something online, clear instructions were agreed upon with the merchant and buyer, and the instructions were not followed ultimately resulting in the buyer not receiving the goods. Then the buyer should be refunded immediately. If I dispute it through my credit card it will be refunded immediately .

      I returned a pair of designer sneakers 2 months ago purchased online at Bergdorf Goodman. I have ***** proof and email **nfirmation they received the return. I noticed My credit card was never refunded $616.73. So I have called them and *********** credit ** numerous times. I told them they never refunded me. They all **nfirm they have the product back. However, They all keep telling me they are refunding me. Unfortunately each time I look the charge is still there accruing interest. NO REFUND yet I have a recent email stating my card was refunded on 9/7/22. I closed the new credit card recently as a result of this nonsense and lack of resolution. The customer service staff and managers are the worst I've ever seen.. for a company selling luxury merchandise. They kept me on hold for 17min today and never checked back in. I don't know what type of SCAM ARTISTS this company is. But if I can't get Corporates Attention thru this **mplaint. I'm filing legal actions. They have not assisted me in resolving the online disputes. They did a charge back instead of a refund. This is causing me great stress and aggravation. I will never ever do business with this Despicable company again.

      I ordered a 2 piece swimsuit from Neiman Marcus. One of the pieces they shipped me was 2 sizes smaller than what I ordered. I packed the item back up and use their return label as directed 8 days into a 30 day return window. Them shipped me the item FedEx with 2 day shipping. The return label they provided was also FedEx so I had every expectation that it would arrive back in just a few days, well within their return window. However, they used the slowest possible ground speed to return the package from Hawaii which takes 4-5 weeks (2 weeks alone to cross the ocean by boat). In my case, it took about 32 days of transit time, so they immediately packed the items back up & sent them back to me saying I violated their return policy & returned the items "late."
      I thought for sure that they would see the facts and realize their mistake and make things right, but no I've reached out to them repeatedly and each time they either dig in and still insisted that I did not follow their return policy (even though I used their shipping label as directed and sent the items back one week into a 30 day return policy) or they just don't respond.
      I disputed this with my credit card company and Neiman Marcus is now fighting the dispute and still trying to leave me stuck with a swimsuit that is 2 sizes too small when they could absolutely resell the item but I can NEVER wear it because they sent me the WRONG item.
      They are behaving horribly as a company and this feels like discriminatory policy against Hawaiians as I've now spoken to several other people in Hawaii who this has happened to ONLY with Neiman Marcus NO other retailers are doing this to Hawaiians. ALL other companies go by the date you SHIPPED the item (not by the date they received it back).
      Obviously I will NEVER shop with this company again but I would sincerely appreciate help in resolving this.

      Consumer Response /* (2000, 7, 2022/09/26) */
      Thank you very much for your help in this matter. Before I engaged BBB, the merchant had failed for months to issue a refund for items that were returned well within the return window, one of which was the wrong item and not what I ordered. Once BBB was involved, the merchant promptly provided a refund. As far as I'm concerned, this matter is now resolved. Many thanks BBB!

      I ordered an item from Neiman Marcus on 08/28/22. On 09/05/22, I received a full charge for the order but only part of the order. It is 09/13/22, and I still do not have a complete order (but I do have a charge for a complete one). My numerous contacts with Neiman Marcus ************** by telephone and email, are a total failure-Neiman Marcus blames ***** (their delivery service) for the delivery failure. Each time I go online to access the status of my order, I see that Neiman Marcus offers my item for one price but consistently pops up a similar one for the much higher price. Does this mean that a one-time high-quality store is now becoming a scam-operated online one?

      I ordered a brand new belt from Neiman Marcus on 8/2/2022. I received it in the main and it was used. I returned it to exchange it for a new belt. When I received the replacement, it was the wrong belt. After multiple calls and 3 hours spent across waiting 5 weeks, I have no resolution. They don't want to send a replacement belt.

      ***Document Attached***
      This is correspondence between Neiman Marcus and *************************, the daughter of *******************************, assisting him with resolving the issue. They are unwilling to cooperate. Their solution is for us to return the belt if we want a refund and we can just reorder the belt. The issue is, we've ordered the belt twice and it came on incorrectly. The first time it was used and the second time it was the wrong belt. This needs to be made right and they are unwilling to do anything but take back the incorrect belt. They won't even help us get the correct belt.

      They didn't respond with anything. They provided no resolution other than for the belt to be returned or they will charge for it again. It seems they are not willing to take any actions to correct the issue. Send the belt that was ordered or we will need to involve consumer protection attorneys.

      We offered to assist the customer with a new order for the belt, however the customer has not placed an order at this time.

      This is incorrect. They did not issue a credit for the incorrect belt and have not attempted to assist with correcting this. They told me I would need to reorder the belt by calling a different number and the belt would actually cost more this time. They also said they could not guarantee I would get the correct belt this time and were not willing to ship any faster than 2 weeks. They have not beeen willing to help with this at all. Their response was, "you will have to reorder it, but if you don't send the one you have back we will charge you additionally for it as well". I feel like they are treating me as if I am to blame. BBB should not close this claim. This has not been resolved and Neiman Marcus treats their customers horribly.

      (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
      Neiman Marcus continues to demonstrate a low level of service. They have refused to offer any kind of appropriate solution.
      The only thing they are willing to "provide" in response to our headache is the ability to call and place another order. How can they expect us to make another order with them when this is how we are treated when an issue arises? If we were to make another order, they won't guarantee we will receive the correct belt, or offer any faster delivery. This is the same poor customer service we received in the first place. How can they expect this issue to be closed when all they did was accept a return? Times have changed now. It's expected for a company to accept a return especially when the item was returned because of an issue on the company's part. Neiman Marcus is a long standing retail store seeming to operate in the luxury space, but this experience has been far from luxury. Their response "we believe this to be a closed matter" just demonstrates that they could care less about making reparations to a customer that has had a negative experience multiple times. It seems Neiman Marcus refuses to do anything to make this right. They aren't offering a solution, it's a dismissal.

      I have ordered this belt twice and it has been wrong both times. Both times they made me send the belt back and offered no real resolution. At this point they are only "offering" to let me order the belt again. This should never happen. Customers don't deserve to be treated this way. I shouldn't be doing quality control on their behalf and spending my time repackaging and resending incorrect items. Neiman Marcus was given plenty of opportunities to make this right and they have not. It seems like they are not willing to. Where do we go from here? Consumer complaint with the ftc?

      There has been no offer to resolve this issue. I still don't have the correct belt I ordered. Now I actually don't have any belt at all. There are consumer protection laws protecting this type of treatment in America. I've battled with this for far too long and had to take time out of my day to mail back 2 incorrect belts. Now they are not even willing to correct their mistakes. They just want me to reorder the belt which is now at a higher price and won't even honor the previous price. Something must be done.

      Business Response

      Date: 11/02/2022

      We have issued credit for the return of the belt and have offered several times to assist
      the customer with replacing the item.

      ************************ is requesting additional compensation outside of the eligible sale or retired
      employee discount, which we are unable to provide per our policy. The customer has been
      contacted previously and advised of this.

      We are unable to communicate any further on this concern. We are asking for the Better

      The timeframe to return merchandise is within 30 days of receipt. The order in question was placed October 2021.

      Thank you for contacting us to address the customer's concern.

      The item I received was not the item that was described on the website. I was informed that it was the merchants error, and that I would receive the correct item. However, the merchant did ship the item that was described on the website. This is false advertisement and misleading. Therefore, a full refund is being requested. I hope to resolve this issue with out legal action.

      I ordered the Mens Perforated Wallet and was sent the Cash SQ Fold Wallet.

      The merchant displayed misleading illustrations of the item on their website, and is unwilling to take accountability of their actions which has caused a great deal of lost time and distress on my end.

      I want to be clear that the discrepancy was not due to the color of the item. The discrepancy was due to the item being falsely advertised and misleading to the consumer.

      I will be returning the item on 9/28/2022. However, I am very disappointed in the level of customer service that I have received. You will lose a customer over a $500 Wallet.

      I spoke with several people from Neiman Marcus regarding my experience. I placed an order for a Balenciaga child's shoe and never received my order. I called in regarding this and was told that I was being refunded back to my original form of payment in 3-5 business days. I called in after the 5 business days to see why I hadn't received my refund and the lady told me that they would try again within ***** hrs. After this I called in again & was told 3-5 business days for them to try again. I decided to call again because I was told different information on 2 different occasions so now I didn't know what to believe. I called again today and spoke with a gentleman who informed me I would be receiving a gift card or a check which I told was unacceptable because I didn't pay by check. I asked him to xfer me to a supervisor who was VERY RUDE. Talking over me , no sympathy/empathy, compassion given towards the customer who then hung up on me. Her name was ******** then called back to the call center and asked to speak to a supervisor and they xfer me to the supervisor which was the same lady *** A. Very rude , laughing in my ear , placed me on hold in the middle of me talking , and just out right didn't care. Still no resolution and will never ever be shopping with Neiman Marcus again. What a horrible experience & just want my money back!

      I cancelled order WNXXXXXXXXXXX because the company never shipped the item. I used PayPal. They still have not taken off the authorization for $364.75. It's been over a week of phone calls and e-mail. I still do not have my $364.75 back.

      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      Thank you for taking the time to communicate to us the concern raised by our customer.

      Our goal is to address our customer's feedback, to evaluate and research their concern, and to provide the best solution available or an explanation of what occurred.

      After reviewing the customer's concern, there was an order # WBXXXXXXXXXX placed on 9/1/22 for the shoe in a size 10D. The order was cancelled on
      9/8/22 because the size was no longer available. This is possibly the email Mr. Taylor received.

      Mr. Taylor's order # WBXXXXXXXXXX has shipped and been confirmed delivered on 9/10/22 via FedEx, tracking # XXXXXXXXXXXX. Please be advise that items which ship from our store may incur a slight delay.

      We take each of our customer's concerns seriously and regret not meeting Mr. Taylor's expectations
      on this occasion. Please be assured that we have
      shared the customer's feedback to the appropriate departments; as we are continuously reviewing our customers shopping experiences and processes to better service our customers.

      Thank you for bring this to our attention. We hope to have an opportunity to serve Mr. Taylor's better in the future.

      ORDER: WBXXXXXXXXXXI placed an order for a pair of shoes, for $475.00 on the seller's website- they were shown as in-stock and to be received in 3-5 days, on 9/1/22, on 9/3 I contacted customer service because I had not received a shipment verification- I was told that there was a complication shipping direct from a store, and that there was no guaranteed shipping timeline... the customer service rep. assured me that they had put a note on the item and it would be shipped ASAP, I received an email on 9/6/22 that the order had been cancelled, I contacted customer service again for status on 9/6/22, via their text system, and was repeatedly forwarded to different customer service reps, without receiving any order status update- or confirmation as to whether the order was cancelled and whether a refund was being processed. On 9/6/22 I spoke to a customer service rep. via email who assured me that the order was not cancelled and being processed- that the shipping label was printed, but that it would not be received until at earliest the 13th- I responded that I wanted to cancel the order, and received no reply. On 9/7/22 I called customer service and waited on the phone for 10 minutes only to speak to a customer service rep. who stated that she was unable to cancel the order, but would submit a cancellation request that would take 24-48hrs to process... As of today BG has given me no verification of order status and has failed despite two requests, to cancel the order and provide a refund. As reflected in comments I see online, BG has terrible customer service for a luxury retailer. I want the order cancelled and my refund processed on 9/8/22; a unguaranteed two week delivery time for a purchase listed as 3-5 days delivery is unacceptable, especially given that it was being shipped from their own retail location domestically.
