On 04/05/2024, I placed an order on Glossier website, the order number is **********. After I received the order, I checked the product batch code on several batch code decoder website and all of them showed that the product was almost 9 years old. I emailed Glossier asking for more information for the manufacturer date information, and attached the photo of the batch code on the box. After long wait, the response I received was quite dismissive. They mentioned the batch code website I included was not associated to them, although I didn't include any website in my email. Also, they refused to provide any information regarding the manufacture date of my product, and refused to process any solution to my inquiry.Initial Complaint

I placed an order on December ******************************************************************************* order number/identification. I received my order on January 8, which included a clothing article. I decided that I did not want to keep the clothing part of my order and contacted the company via email on January 9th to begin the return process. Since I did not receive any confirmation email I do not the actual order number- I used my Afterpay account and only received confirmation from the third party site. Since January 9th, I have not received any progression from the company on my return process. The last updat I received was on January 11 from ***** asking for the ** glossier order number, I promptly responded that I never received an order number or email and provided the email address that was associated with my order and have not received any response.Customer response

Placed an order with Glossier on 11/27/2023 (order# **********); received a shipping notification on 12/1/2023, however the tracking information that was provided shows that **** never received the package. Ive been emailing the company the entire past week and there has been zero response. I understand that they might be having issues due to holiday orders but that still doesnt justify the fact that I as a customer have been charged, money has been taken from me but they cant even get around to respond or look into the issue.Customer response

I placed my order through Glossiers website on 11-24-23 and received tracking info promptly on 11-25-23. The **** tracking number said they were awaiting package/info from shipper (Glossier). After over 2 weeks of waiting for the tracking info to update and not receiving my package, I sent an email to customer support explaining the situation and asking for help (on 12-10-23). I immediately received an automatic reply saying they would help me shortly. Five days later (12-15-23), I finally received an email from a real person saying they would send my order again and requested that I confirm the shipping address. I responded in less than 12 hours on the same day confirming my address (which was the exact same as it was on the original order) and have not yet received any update, new tracking number, or even confirmation that they received the email. At this point it has been about 25 days since I placed this order, which was supposed to ship in 5-7 business days. I understand that this is the busiest time of the year, but this is just so unprofessional. If youre going to steal my money and not send me my order, the VERY least you can do is respond to my email.Business response

Order ********** Order Confirmation Order for products for Christmas gifts was placed 11/27/2023. Received notification 11/30/2023 that the order has shipped. Tracking states that is is still awaiting carrier pickup. DHL Tracking Number: ********************** I have emailed x 2 to the customer service team, with no response. I understand that shipping difficulties may happen, but it is unacceptable to not attempt to resolve this. There is no phone number for customer service to call to resolve the issue. This is my first time to order from this company. This is very poor customer service. I received an email today asking me to answer questions about how I was "enjoying my product".Customer response

I placed an order for Christmas that was shipped but not received. The tracking indicates it was delivered but I dont have my order and am out the money spent. I contacted customer service through email six times, using two email accounts to attempt to get a response. I also reached out through ******************* and ********* **************** has not responded to any of my NINE attempts to contact them. They do not have a phone line so I am at a loss. The next step will be a chargeback with my credit card due to lack of customer service response. Buyers beware!! Do not order online through Glossier.Business response

On 6/17/2023 me and two of my friends visited Glossier *******. Upon entering, we noticed that the employees greeted everyone besides **. After spending 30 minutes trying to get the attention of the associates in order to make a purchase, we left completely disheartened. We were the only Hispanic people in the store and were actively ignored by all the associates. We came in with the intention of purchasing multiple items, but were treated with disdain. We tried waving down employees and saying excuse me to no avail. We noticed that in the time we were in the store every other customer had been helped, with some receiving help from multiple associates. We tried to get the attention of a group of 3/4 employees standing together and chatting, but no one turned to talk to us. This was completely ridiculous. We were not given the same opportunity as other customers to make a purchase due to the company/employees' prejudice. When we told an employee about this as we left, all she said was "I'm sorry!" and turned around. There was nothing done to remedy this. We went out of our way to get the attention of the employees and received absolutely no help and were ignored.
