      I am filing this complaint regarding Calvin Klein and a missing order (#**********) valued at over $400, which has never been delivered.I have chatted and emailed Calvin Klein customer service multiple times, including with representatives ****** and ***, and my concerns were repeatedly dismissed. My questions were ignored, and their responses did not address the issue they simply stated the package was delivered, even though it was not. I have checked with my buildings package room and neighbors, and no one has received it.This order was meant to be a care package and birthday gift for my boyfriend, and its incredibly frustrating that Calvin Klein has offered no real support or resolution. I have tried everything I could before I should resorting to a bank dispute, which takes time and stress I shouldn't have to deal with for something that was never delivered.Calvin Klein continues to refuse to file a claim with **** even though, as the shipper, they are the only party authorized to do so. I have asked for a copy of my chat transcript to support my claim, and they have refused to provide that as well. I am extremely disappointed by how this situation has been handled and would like the BBBs help in holding Calvin Klein accountable for this unacceptable customer experience.

      I am filing a formal complaint against Calvin Klein for unfairly revoking my earned rewards credits without prior notice.Issue Summary:Calvin Klein offers a rewards program where customers receive $20 in credit for every $200 spent. I made several legitimate purchases and accumulated $80 in rewards credits. However, when I attempted to use my credits, I discovered that CK had wiped them from my account.Upon contacting customer service, I was informed that my rewards were removed because I was flagged as a "bulk buyer." This decision was made without any warning, and there is no clear policy stating that bulk buyers forfeit earned rewards. Additionally, I spoke with a customer service manager over the phone, who refused to reinstate my credits, despite my purchases following standard store policies.Why This is *********************** of Transparency Nowhere in CKs rewards program terms does it state that bulk buyers will have their rewards revoked.Unjust Retraction of Earned Benefits I spent my hard-earned money under the promise of receiving rewards, only to have them unfairly taken away.Poor ***************************** Despite my efforts to resolve this with *** customer service and a store manager, they refused to reinstate my credits.Requested Resolution:I am requesting that Calvin Klein reinstates my $80 in rewards credits, as they were earned through valid purchases. If CK refuses to restore my credits, I ask that they provide a clear, written policy stating that bulk buyers forfeit rewards to justify their actions.I hope BBB can assist in resolving this matter, as it reflects a lack of fair business practices and misleading promotions on CKs part.Thank you for your time and assistance.

      Business Response

      Date: 03/17/2025

      The customer was explained directly why the account was flagged as a Bulk Buyer after review and investigation.

      Based on this information, per Calvin Klein policy, the reward account will not be reinstated. The customer was told that the website and in store purchases are for personal use only and not for buying to resell items purchased. This against Calvin Klein policy and not allowed.

      After further investigation, the customer has multiple accounts which all show multiple underwear purchases of the same exact item in different sizes.

      The customer was confronted with this information and confirmed the purchases. After speaking with a manager, the customer confirmed his understanding of the policy and stated that he did not need any further assistance.

      I ordered a pair of boots for myself online on January 8th. I received the order on January 13th. I wore the boots no more than 8 times. On February 14th, I wore them to a dinner for *********** Day and at the end of the night when I took my boots off, I realized that the boot tip on one of my heels had come off. They cannot be worn in that condition as it would cause further damage to the boot. I contacted Calvin Klein's customer service online to request a replacement and was assigned case #********. I provided all of the necessary information that they requested and the only responses that I received were asking for the information that I had already provided. Their last communication was to say that they closed my case and to reply to the email to reopen it, which I did. I have still not received a response. My desired resolution is to receive compensation so that I can get the boot repaired, as my size is no longer available on their website for them to replace the pair. I would accept a new pair if they in fact have my size (7).

      Dear *****,

      We do apologize that your issue was not addressed and for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

      Regrettably, we do not ship replacement items. 

      At this time I would like to offer a full refund for the your order, and a $75 Calvin Klein e-gift card that can be used in-store or online and will not expire. 

      Please confirm if you accept.

      Sincerely,

      Calvin Klein Customer Service.

      I placed an order on 11th February 2025 through Calvin Kleins UK website and paid ******. Unfortunately, my parcel was never delivered to me. The only proof of delivery was an unclear photo showing the parcel, without evidence it was left in a safe place, handed to a person, or delivered to a clearly identifiable location. I contacted Calvin Kleins customer service for assistance. They requested I complete a sworn statement, which I did. After submitting the form, my case was escalated to their specialised team, who insisted that I file a police report that was signed and stamped, stating this was their internal process with no exceptions allowed.I first contacted my local police via web chat, explaining the situation. The officer confirmed that signed and stamped police reports are not practice in the **. I then visited a police station to try to get the report, but the officers affirmed this policy and were only able to log the incident and issue a reference number. I gathered all the documentation, including the transcript of my police conversation and a photo of the reference card. I sent this to Calvin Klein's specialist team as a PDF, following their instructions. I also spoke with *****, a representative from their live chat, who advised me to provide any written documentation, even if not guaranteed to be accepted.Despite my efforts, I received no response from their specialised team. When I followed up with a phone call, I was treated rudely by an agent who implied I was lying, insisting that signed and stamped police reports are possible in the **. This was insulting, as I provided clear confirmation from a police officer confirming otherwise. I suggest that Calvin Klein contact my local police to verify this information if they don't believe me!I am now left without the items I ordered or a refund, despite all attempts to resolve the issue. I therefore request that Calvin Klein issue a full refund of ****** for the undelivered order.

I contacted Calvin Klein, but they only responded once and took no further action.The email thread is Re: Your Calvin Klein Request Has Closed, case# ******** thread:*************************:They sent a second email saying the case is closed without specifying a reason.

      I placed an order for a trench coat and received it on the 14th of June. When I tried it on it was huge on me and so I printed the return label provided by Calvin Klein via *** and shipped it back the following day. I have the receipt from *** which shows the package received by them. However, heres the problem: the tracking number generated did not match whats on the return label. This leads me to believe Calvin Klein is recycling tracking numbers and this one was recycled too soon. In effect, I am unable to track my return. I have been to ***, and they refer me to the merchant. I have been on the phone with Calvin Klein and they cannot do anything about it. I myself have even reached out to the warehouse where Calvin Klein sends their return shipments. Its all on me to act on this issue and I have not received anything more from Calvin Klein. Again, you are on your own if you run into an issue. I am out of 195 dollars and they wont even investigate the matter. How about calling the receiving warehouse in **********, *******. How about doing something more?I am disgusted by this company, which is a shame because I would have loved to keep buying from them. It is nothing to them if you are distressed about an error caused by their system.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
