The sales person ( Kansas ) was excellent. She worked with me to find just item I was looking for. Even though Belks did not carry my item. Kansas did not just direct me and walk away. She stayed and tried to find my item. Kansas is a very valued employee to have. Great personality easy to engage with. Thank you for have such a great employee to deal with the public.

No refund if they don’t send your merchandise

Sent me an empty box from belk returns instead of my $121 order. Customer service is terrible. Nothing works to get refunded for a box I did not receive. Emails,phone calls to customer service,claims process and none of it works. At this point I think I’m just out $121 for things they did not send.

Received a dirty stained shirt!

I ordered two tuxedo jackets for my husband. I returned one, three weeks later they have not refunded my money. I opened the shirt box and it is dirty on the cuffs and has a big yellow stain on the front. Belk said it is too late and they won’t exchange it. I have washed it twice and it won’t come out. The wedding is in one week out of town. I will have to try to find another shirt . I won’t ever shop at Belk again. I guess they would rather loose future business than do the right thing and replace the shirt. Terrible customer service. I would give them a 0 if I could.

If I could give this zero stars I would. They waded a dupioni silk dress up in a ball and shipped it in a plastic bag in a wad so when I received it it was ruined - it was for a wedding a $200 dress full price they refused to make it right and then tried to say I could not be refunded tax ilir shipping when they destroyed the item with how they packaged it so badly … the store did not have any in my size in stock so exchange was impossible. The store and customer service were horrible.

STAY CLEAR OF BELK

Ordered a Dining Buffet from Belk. The product arrived undamaged but the product was junk. The description was misinformation and the product was defective in many ways. I called to return and got a service ticket but never received any response from Belk. I filed a credit card dispute( still pending) but will escalate to small claims and GA State Attorney OFFICE next. This company needs to be exposed for what they are! Becareful in your considerations

Returns are Horrible - Merchandise may not be first quality

My first purchase was delayed twice and I found the merchandise to be very different from others I purchased in a store (same brand). My second purchase I had to return. It took a month from mailing to getting a refund - MINUS a $10.80 fee taken off my total refund! Not a great experience

Zero stars

Zero stars. I placed an online order and in the confirmation email my shipping address was wrong. Immediately sent and email then called about an hour later and was told that they can’t update the address and because it’s been over 30 minutes since I placed the order they also can’t cancel it. They told me I have to wait until it ships and then the carrier will be able to update my address-which I doubt. I will NEVER shop here again.

Ever ordered onliney time I order something from Belk…

Every time I order something from Belk online it's always wrong ..I ordered gym shorts I get them in the mail and it has the sensor tag on it whatever store they came from and the salesperson who did this should be fired not doing their job correctly.. Either I have to go back to the store which is 30 minutes away or either they can send me a return label which is going to take time and I'm without my merchandise ..and send them back ..shouldn't have to do either they should have refunded me and be done . I am going to never shop at the store again or online. Lately the merchandise is terrible especially for men.

They SUCK

They took my order knowing they did not have the item ordered. They gave me a tracking number that led to a dead end saying awaiting the item from seller.
When I wrote, AFTER WEEKS HAD PASSED, inquiring, because I used the word "f u c k"" in my complaint, they chose not to respond at all. When I tried to write again, my emails were blocked, meantime the shipper was saying they are waiting for the seller to send the package.
I wrote to the better business bureau and then Belk responded to my complaint saying my goods were stuck in transit, and did I want to cancel the order or reorder. Another way of saying we dont have your goods but if we ever get them we will send them or you can just cancel the order. They were Behaving Exactly Like Kriminals. belk Shady and manipulative. I would not use them again because they are not trust worthy and are arrogant in their dismissal of complaints for taking money and providing nothing more than lip service after they take it, up to and including completely ignoring you and your complaints. THEY SUCK

I ordered some polos and shorts 3 weeks ago and they still haven’t arrived. I called them to ask why my package hasn’t moved from the warehouse for days and they couldn’t give me an answer. I just wanted to wear a nice themed polo for the 4th of July but it won’t get here in time. Don’t order something from them that you plan to wear in the future because you won’t receive it in time.

Belk sells used luxury bags but…

Belk sells used luxury bags but passes them off as new bags with a no refund policy. Knowing that the average customer doesn't know that they are not new and they don't explain that to you. That is a scam and they should be ashamed of themselves. I always thought they were a reputable store but they stiffed me out of a hefty sum. But never again and they will not do well doing people like this. They have lost a loyal customer from this situation. Do not buy their luxury bags thinking they're new because they're not. Me not knowing it was used had me thinking it was defective, because it had like discoloration on it and like small paint splashes. Took it back the next day and they would not compensate me in any way. I'm done with them and will tell everyone I know not to fool with them, because if all sales are final then the customer should know these are used purses!!!! I notice trust pilot keeps changing my word used to vintage. But you can say vintage all you want but it's used and my purse wasn't even clean inside and I didn't realize that until the next morning because it was evening when I bought it and I was thinking it was new, so I wasn't checking all that!!

SCAMMERS

Zero stars for them.
They sell USED clothes and items and lie about them being new. SCAMMERS. Worst customer service. Ordered twice from them, always received torn dirty clothes from them. You can tell that they have been worn.
Items are not even packed properly.

Also they do not process the refund amount unless you call them again and again. Even after I had returned their items, they didn’t refund my money untill I called them repeatedly.

System Fail

I had an order that arrived within the allotted time as given by the website. It was two pair of pants that were too big. I chose to exchange them for a smaller size and the return was seamless. I received an email with pictures of the new pants saying the order was being prepared. I waited, then after 2 weeks passed and I had not received my order or shipping info, I tried to call to ask about the order but the robot assistant kept hanging up on me. A week later I finally talked to a live person. She told me that the system “had not picked up” the order and that she could resend it. I asked for expedited shipping since I had waited a total of 3 weeks and was told that because it was a return order, I could not have expedited shipping. That is very unfortunate. It was a very small ask given the time I’ve waited. I will never shop with this company again.

Went to purchase a bag of the website…

Went to purchase a bag off the website was told there was an error with my card number I entereda different card number just to find out that they charged my original card and the second card as well. Never sent me a confirmation of the order or anything, took my money from both my cards And now I’m waiting for my bank to release the hold on both of my cards because of their error and not informing patient of issues with their website to avoid purchasing without receiving. If they want to stay in business, they really need to work on this. They ruined my experience completely and discourage me from ever wanting to buy from them again.

Belk should be renamed SCAM!!! Do not shop there - they take your money and don't fulfill your order. And their "customer service representatives (in Africa, no less) are a pathetic joke!

Belk should be renamed "SCAM". Placed online order on item shown in stock. My credit card was charged. A week later no product received. Contacted Belk's Customer Service to inquire why my order had not been received. After nearly 1 hour on the phone back and forth with different "representatives" I was informed that Belk had arbitrarily cancelled my order for lack of stock, however, their website still shows that they still have the item I ordered in stock! I WAS NEVER INFORMED BY BELK THEY HAD CANCELLED MY ORDER. I was told by their "representative" that I WOULD HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO CONTACT MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY TO GET A REFUND!!!
