      I bought a playstation 5 controller from a gamestop store in the state ********** last October. I also bought a 1 year warranty so if I had any issues with the controller I could return it for a new one. I ended up having issues with the controller and attempted to return it for a new one under the warranty I bought from the store. I was told last November gamestop changed the warranty policy and that I could only receive a pre-owned controller instead. I would like to receive a NEW controller like the warranty stated when I bought it.

      Under our current policy, if you have a product replacement plan for your item you can bring your defective item in and get an as close to equivalent as possible pre-owned or refurbished working unit to replace it. This replacement may vary in color or style based on availability at the time.  If you would like a new version of the item, you are then welcome to trade in your working pre-owned item and use the store credit towards purchasing a new one. The store is not able to make any exception to this policy. Our product replacement plan terms and conditions states:
      ?
      PRP Coverage: PRP coverage will provide for replacement, at Our sole discretion either with a new or refurbished item, of the hardware covered by this PRP in the event of a Failure not covered by insurance or any other warranty or service contract, up to the value of the item.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      when I bought that controller and warranty that wasn't your policy at the time. It's not my fault you changed your policy. All pre-owned controllers I was offered had the same issue that my current controller has. Why would exchange my controller for one with the same issue? I also know I won't be getting even half of the price for my controller if I was able to trade it in for store credit. I ask that you act like you care for your customers and do the right thing and honor the warranty that I bought and replace my broken controller with a new one.

      Hello, during early March I needed to buy some PS5s with the new bundle with *********. Went to my local GameStop and purchased those as needed, then on Friday, Mar/8 the orders placed on Mar/7 were cancelled, not sure why so the clerks and I just waited over the weekend. On Monday, Mar/11 they said corporate told them I am officially banned at all GameStops, because I was using a fake name? Well problem is that all clerks knew me personally since I was a regular. Store offered to help and we waited for a couple months, then they said there were no response from the corporate after they followed up all the internal procedures, and this was not something they can overturn, so here we are.My pro membership is *************, and local store is Prospect Commons - GameStop at ****************************************. Proof for real name, if needed, are - Store manager and clerks have checked my driver's license.- Earlier this year I've traded in a Xbox Series S, and last year a Switch Pro Controller, etc. ID was scanned every time so you guys actually have all the info.Happy to provide any further proof in case needed.

      In ********, businesses are required to display accurate prices and honor them. Here are some key points about Kentucky laws regarding price tagging and honoring prices:

      1. Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) *******: Requires businesses to display prices clearly and conspicuously, and to honor advertised prices.
      2. KRS *******: Prohibits businesses from engaging in deceptive pricing practices, including misrepresenting prices or failing to display prices.
      3. KRS *******: Allows consumers to file complaints with the Kentucky ************************* for pricing violations.
      4. Kentucky Regulation 803 KAR 10:020: Requires businesses to maintain accurate price lists and to update prices promptly.

      Specifically, ******** law requires businesses to:

      - Display prices clearly and conspicuously on shelves, displays, or advertisements
      - Honor prices displayed on shelves or in advertisements
      - Correct pricing errors and honor the correct price

      I made a GameStop.com order on June 4th. A label was created but the item did not move at all. Since GameStop has a crazy return policy of 15 days from the day of purchase, I called GameStop on Saturday June 8th to cancel the order. The order was successfully cancelled and I received an email confirming this. However, on Tuesday June 10th, GameStop shipped the order to me. I am also unable to return this cancelled order due to their unreasonable return policy. I called GameStop to try to resolve this, but they claim to have no record of the call or the cancellation. Funny, cause I have an email proving it. Once I realized they were going to lie no matter what to avoid doing the right thing, I decided to hang up and immediately file this claim

      Complaint: 21841633

      I am rejecting this response because:

      You are delaying issuing a refund by claiming the shipment was "lost in transit", but your company never actually sent the package.

      Unless you can provide me with additional shipping information, I will have no choice but to file a fraud complaint.

      My son has a valid 20 GC from game stop. When he attempted to utilize the card, it failed to work. The employee's at the store provided the Game Stop 800 number. We contacted the 800 number who informed us that this happens to their Gift Cards and that they would have to issue a new emailed Gift Card within 3-5 days. We have called several times, we are provided the same response that the last person didn't finish the transaction and that we need to wait another 3-5 days. We did receive a tracking number ******* last time and it has been over 5 days.

      On 6/11/24, I bought a $25 gift card through game stops app. I never received the email. I have reached out to customer service four times. The first time I was told to wait two days or go to the store and they can fix it. I went to the store and the associates. There were rude telling me they could not do that. I called back **************** while in the store and was told Id have the gift card in two hours. I did not receive the gift card. I waited till this morning to call again and was told it will be 5 to 7 business days before I receive anything I verified with each.com agent that the email address is correct. My order number is ****************. I have attached a copy of the receipt and a copy of GameStop SOP from their website regarding gift card issues. It states the store can fix however, the associate completely dismissed me and refused to help me.
