I ordered some items from Neiman Marcus.com. They did not arrive. Neiman Marcus is refusing to re-send the order that I paid for with Affirm. However, the website does not state that when you use a third-party pay service, they will not send a replacement if your order does not arrive. In addition, they have not agreed to send me the replacement item for the other list package; I paid for this one directly.Business Response

Hello,
This has not been resolved. I did not receive the items in the two orders listed in my complaint. Neiman Marcus submitted two claims to ***** (one for each order). I spoke to *****, and after their investigation, they determined that the items were never delivered. However, Neiman Marcus refuses to refund me for the orders. Please help.

As previously stated, a credit of $ ****** has been issued to the customer's AFFIRM account. The time it takes for the credit to appear on your statement will vary depending on your financial institution.
Please contact AFFIRM with any questions regarding the credit. For a replacement on AFFIRM you would need to place a new order using that payment.
The secondary order was researched by our ********************* and it has been determined that no error occurred, therefore, the claim of non-receipt has been denied.

A couple of months ago I placed an online order for a Mens ring. The store never shipped it. When i reached out they treated me like a liar. So after they forgot the $400 ring, and they've blamed me for their staff making a big mistake. I now am forced to sign for EVERYTHING. This creates a major inconvenience as far as trying to run errands with my two small children. I want compensation and an apology for this abhorrent lack of customer service and general decency.Business Response

On 09/05/22, I placed order WNXXXXXXXXXXX for a pair of sneakers and a pair of pants for a total of $1539.22. I received 09/08/22 it and then requested to return the order 09/14/22 for a refund total of $1514.22. I shipped my return on 09/16/22 at my nearest fedex location. The return was delivered 09/20/22 under the tracking number XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. I contacted them the 27th asking when I could expect my refund. I was told it can take 3-4 more days. I waited past that and still never received my refund. I contacted again 10/4/22 to be told the warehouse was notified and to wait till 10/07/22. I waited till then and still received no refund or any updates. I contacted 10/10/22 to which they then told that the weight does not match and that they have received the wrong items. I right fully shipped back the correct pair of sneakers and pair of pants. They're now refusing to refund me after weeks of leading to me some nonsense resolution.

On 9/20/2022 I purchased a number of high end products at https://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/. Order # WB XXXXXXXXXX. Once of the items is La Mer Cream, retail price is $ 570 for 3.4 oz. The item in question appears to be a completely different one-I been using La Mar for the last 20 years or so. It is liquidish, different consistency and application and duration is not what it used to be. I became very upset. Called up customer service last night. The lady on the phone suggested that " due to the war in Europe, La Mer cannot get ingredients therefore they came with a ligher formula". I am Ukrainian, born in Ukraine, my 88 year old mom lives in Lviv, my brother who flew to Lviv two days before the the Russian aggression began- and now I am being fed this garbage? Ukraine never supplied anything to LaMer, ever. It is cynical to use russian aggression against my people as a vague excuse to misrepresent the product. This is fraud, in a very poor taste. If La Mar changes the formula and the product loses its cosmetic value, you must not market as an original product with the same price tag. This is dishonest, misleading and unethical business practice. I am shipping this item back, want to get an original one and a detailed explanation from upper corporate office how it became possible and how BG is going to rectify the situation.Business Response

I purchased a suit in May for 4441.40$. I returned this item in person in 3 days later. The item was inspected and the return was processed. I physically left the store. Hours later, I received a voice message from the sales associate stating that he is voiding the return and claimed that the suit had a stain on it. To start, if there was a stain on the suit that would have been noticed upon inspection when I returned the item physically and the suit would not have been returned in the first place. Hours later after the item was out of my possession, I received this voice message from the sales associate. I had opened this dispute after receiving this voice message. This dispute has been open and closed at least 4-5 times now since May. I have requested for the merchant to provide evidence of the stain being present on the suit since it is in their possession. They have had since May to upload this evidence and have not done so. Even if they were able to upload a photo, this does not change the fact that the suit was out of my possession for hours and someone from the store could have spilled something on it and put a stain on it during that time. But to further support, my claim they couldn't even provide a photo. I currently do not have possession of the suit and I am being asked to pay 4441.10$ for an item that I do not even have. I am shocked that this is still going on all the way until October and I am really surprised that **************** dispute team is not easily able to see how ridiculous this is. Every time I open a dispute claim, the merchant keeps writing that "the suit had a stain on it and was unsellable" despite providing no evidence and admitting that it is in their possession. I am currently out the entire amount with no item and need to be refunded. As you can see from the attached photo, the suit was already refunded and I left the store prior to this return being voided.Business Response

They are contradicting the statement that they made to ***************** where they admitted that the suit was in their possession. Now they are claiming I have it, that is a lie. it is very simple, they processed the return then hours later claimed that there were stains on it.

Hello,I paid great amounts of money for an item ($1875.00)I received the product and I started a return. I returned the product the first day I receieved it and now they are telling me that since it hasnt reached their warehouse yet (despite it being a long time over the refund day).According to the tracking, it is still in transit but they are telling me to open a claim with ***** but that is not my responsbility! If the package is lost, then its their responsibility to open a claim with them. I should not be caught in the middle of this mess. I used the label that they provided me with and I did everything which was requested! Now they are telling me to wait 3 weeks for me to get my refund.

This is regarding order #WNXXXXXXXXXXX placed at neimanmarcus.com in Jun 2022. I had ordered 2 same dresses with 2 different sizes and when i received my order, there was just one dress in the package. I immediately raised it to customer care that i only received one dress and I was told that I would get a refund for the one that I didn't receive. The one that I had received, it didn't fit me well and so I returned that one and got the refund for it but I never got the refund for the one i never received. I called and chatted with customer care several times and everytime i was told that i would get my refund soon. On Oct 2, 2022, I finally visited a store in Orlando and spoke with a manager and asked him to help me. The manager asked a lady from his team to call customer care and resolve the issue. We were on the call for an hour and finally, the rep, on the phone, told me that she is processing the refund of ~$378 and I should get that in a couple of days. She also promised that she will send me an email right away with everything we discussed. I disconnected the phone and came back home. It has now been 4 days and i neither received any email or my refund. This is highly frustrating and your staff keeps making false statements just to hang up the phone. I just need my money back.Business Response

I placed an order for a $129 pair of earrings on 9/09/22. The original tracking (WNXXXXXXXXXXX) said that the order would arrive by 9/11/22. When it was not here on 9/11/22, I was not too concerned because I figured it had some minor delays. When my package had still not arrived on 9/18/22, I decided to reach out to Neiman Marcus. They stated that it had been delayed, but they reached out to FedEx and said it was on the way. By then, my package was over a week late. I decided that this must be a fluke, and I still wanted the earrings, so I ordered another pair on 9/22/22, intending to return whichever pair arrived last (WNXXXXXXXXXXX). My second order was supposed to arrive on 9/24/22. It is now 10/1/22 and neither pair has arrived. I have been in contact with Neiman Marcus several times and they stated that I could not cancel my order or request a refund because my package had already shipped. I spoke with FedEx asking if I could pick up my earrings from the FedEx site, and they said I would need to get Neiman Marcus to update the shipping instructions to do so. I asked Neiman Marcus to update the shipping instructions and they would not. I am now out over $250 and have no idea if/when my earrings will ever arrive. I did not expect a supposedly high end store to be unable to deliver TWO separate orders.Business Response

I looked at the other items and realized the salesperson gave me 2 wrong items out of 3. I called Bergdorf's, I was transferred to a man who looked up my order & said those are the 3 items I purchased & he was there & I asked for these items. He was telling me what I said, and I stated I never said I wanted what he said. I told him the sales girl said I wanted 136 lipstick and she made me try on Beige Natural lipliner. When I got home I had Rose Natural lipliner and 138 lipstick. I also asked how long the return was and he accused me of being abusive to him. I told him he was being abusive to me. I don't know how since I had nothing to do with him he knows what I said. I ended up hanging up on him and he kept telling me these wrong items are what I asked for. I only purchased one item by name. The other items were recommended to me by the sales girl and I tried them on. I am not going to pay for 2 wrong items. I asked to speak to the manager and he said he was the manager. I couldn't believe I was being spoken to and accused of buying wrong items from this person who I had nothing to do with. I want a refund on the items I didn't purchase.Business Response
