Dear BBB,
After the initial interaction, a resolution was initially provided to the client. A new piece was then purchased and the client advised it was the wrong size. We advised the client how to return the item. Once the package was received and inspected by our ******************* it was determined that the merchandise was not sent back to us. Based on these extenuating circumstances this matter is being escalated to our fraud and legal department for additional review.
Sincerely,

My husband talked to Tiffany on the phone and bought a $13000 ring for my birthday. He was asked to wire the money and was told the product will be shipped as soon as they receive funds. A few days later he received an email stating that someone else bought the ring. They offered to get same ring in a few months ( not acceptable). He had to contact them and ask for money back. They received money March 17th . As of March 28th we did not receive a refund. There were no formal apology of any kind. Several times we were told a manager will contact us. It never happened. Very sad. My 55 th birthday is ******* , we are going on a special cruise and I wanted to wear the ring that I dreamed of having for 5 years and finally got except no ring and no money returned.Business Response

Dear BBB,
We sincerely apologize for the delay in responding. After researching the matter further with the carrier and filing a claim, a resolution was issued to the client in the form of a merchandise credit. The client has already received the merchandise credit and used it to shop with us again. This matter is considered resolved.

I visited store after a family cruise 12/21/2024 ... I walked in was not greeted. I even walked to the front glass counter and greeted the worker. I then asked her if there was any sales or special offer that I had been seeing on social media. The worker response was "Sales !! while looking around like she saw a ghost. She was so rude and never smiled. I went in as a ******* ******** with travel clothes on so I feel as though I was discriminated against. I walked out the store not wanting to look in the mall at all. I waited till the following week to call the store to talk to a manager and the guy I spoke with told me I would receive a call within 2 days and still nothing. I am discussed and will never purchase anything anywhere I'm not wanted.Business Response

We own a Tiffany clock that had been gifted to us. The clock works fine. After many years, a couple of minor things needed to be replaced, principally the dial to adjust the clock hands and the pin to activate the alarm. ********************** does not want to replace these minor pieces. Instead, they keep insisting that I need to replace the entire clock movement, WHICH IS OTHERWISE FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND KEEPS ACCURATE TIME! Coincidentally, they want to charge an exorbitant price to replace a movement that works just fine. I have told them repeatedly that I am not interested in replacing a movement which works just fine. I have also told them to charge me for the two small components that I need to have for this clock to be fully functional and I will do the repair myself. (Does not require a skilled clockmaker). They keep trying to upsell me to replace a mechanism that works fine. The staff at Tiffany and Co. have been completely difficult and dishonest throughout my entire dealings with them.Customer Answer

Dear BBB,
When the clock was in the *************** it was thoroughly reviewed. The time setting k*** was broken off the movement, the alarm setting k*** was heavily worn, and also broken off the movement. We are unable to replace the components due to the movement damage, and the movement is attached to the setting k**** The only way to bring the clock back to working order is to replace the movement.

My ring was purchased from Tiffanys (number of ring is ********) and I have had nothing but issues with the ring it is obviously defective. I was even told by employee that the ring is no longer sold possibly because it had issues. the ring continues to bend in and become misshapen we have already paid a lot of money to have ring reshaped and it did it again. I am a stay at home mom and I wear another ring on same finger as that ring and my other ring hasn't had any issues with it. I would like to either trade ring in for a ring that isn't defective or have it fixed with no charge to me as it is a defective product and we have already paid a considerable amount to fix it.Customer Answer

Dear BBB,
The client communicated with our ************************** who had the ring further reviewed and the repair charges are applicable. The client was informed of this and she chose to cancel the order. If the client is inquiring about an upgrade, she would need to contact a Client Advisor at her local Tiffany store location to discuss that option.

On Nov 08, 2024, I purchased a necklace from Tiffany online with the order number #*********. I have never received the necklace, my apartment leasing manager has camera footage proving this.

Purchased a necklace from a Tiffany's location in June, the necklace clasp broke in September. I took it back to the store that I purchased it from and they said it would be a few weeks to repair and cost an additonal amount after already for the necklace not even 3 months before. I reached out to customer support to inquire about why it would cost me an additonal amount when it was recently purchased. They ended up saying that it is cover under a warranty for a year and I should not be charged for the repair and that they can't help with the estimate/charge for the repair since it was already sent out. I have not paid for the repair yet but they are now holding the necklace since its repaired but I have not paid. This feels incredibly scummy.Business Response

During a vacation trip to *************, I purchased a necklace from the landmark Tiffany's store on October 26, 2024. When I showed my daughter, she pointed out that the heart had a ***** **** on it. A few days after my purchase when I returned home, I contacted Tiffany's about the defective necklace. I was told that since it was purchased at the landmark store, the associate who sold it to me would contact me with a resolution.Weeks later, several telephone calls later, several promises made and not fulfilled, I am still waiting for someone to contact me. It appears that delay is a tactic that is being used since the replacement window ends 30 days after purchase.I've read the other complaints and does appear that the level of customer service has significantly declined with this company.Business Response

Dear Tiffany & Co team,The decline of customer experience I recently encountered at the Tampa store # *** is alarming. The extent of the decline is appalling and goes against every core value of the beloved brand. Ive never been treated so terribly and disrespected by any retailer, let alone the brand famous for its finesse and class. I visited the store on June 6th to drop off two items for repairs. I was mistreated, however, let that go. I returned to the store on 8.24.24 to pick up both my items. Manager ******* retrieved my items, handed me my two pouches holding items and asked if I was ready to pay. I politely asked to box my items because the presentation always accommodated my repairs and polishing in the past. ******* laughed to my face with No, we never box repairs, only new purchases. When I questioned her, she raised her voice with That is a policy, we do not box repairs. If I box it for you, it may end up on ****** People sell the empty boxes on ***** and for that reason our policy does not allow us to give out boxes. After I asked to see the policy prohibiting ********* presentation for paying customers, she informed me that she will make a one-time exception for me. Visibly annoyed, ******* quickly & sloppy wrapped two boxes, and stuffed them in a tiny bag. ******* did not offer to clean/polish the jewelry I was wearing. I left the store heartbroken and in disbelief of the treatment I received. Dear Tiffany, What do other peoples actions on **** have to do with me? Insinuating that I requested to package my 2 repaired items so that I can sell 2 empty boxes is not only ridiculous but disrespectful and appalling. This experience is nothing short of a slap in the face. We have been loyal to the brand for almost 2 decades, purchased items and visited stores in the ** and abroad. I could never dream of such a terrible treatment. 1. Is that your policy regarding the packaging?2. Was standard of service violated by ******* and Hope?Business Response
Date: 09/30/2024
Dear BBB,
We have addressed the clients concerns with a letter sent on September 6th after a lengthy conversation with one of our directors, in the conversation with the director and in the letter we explained our typical practice is not to return repaired merchandise in blue boxes at our store locations. We do not have a written policy to this effect to provide. Separately, we expressed our regret that the client was not pleased with the service she received at the store and have addressed this matter appropriately with the store in question.
We now consider this matter closed.Sincerely,
