Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 144 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently encountered significant issues with customer service, often finding it unhelpful, unresponsive, and difficult to reach. Many also reported widespread problems with their orders, including items not arriving as expected, being incorrect, or experiencing considerable delays. The delivery service was a major point of dissatisfaction, with people experiencing lost packages, shipments sent to wrong destinations, or extended shipping times. However, some customers also noted specific issues with product quality, such as items being poorly made, mis-sized, or not matching descriptions, and some even received items that did not meet expectations. Conversely, a small portion of people felt satisfied with the in-store staff and certain product aspects, praising helpful employees and good brands.

What in the world?? This went from the company with the BEST customer service to probably the WORST. What a swift and complete 360. Seriously every order has had an issue - shipped to the wrong place,... See more

Horrible customer service

Horrible customer service! I called multiple times and tried to get the refund for something that was never delivered, and the refund that was to go to the credit card never made it, after calling multiple times. And then they mention it’s past due. This is not just on customer service but on Nordstrom card services as well. Horrible customer service all around, I am just going to cut my losses and cancel the credit card and would advise against anyone utilizing this.

DO NOT BUY

Bought a dress that was meant for my daughter's 1st birthday. After waiting nearly 3 months for the dress, I emailed and they told me that they couldn't send me the dress. If I hadn't emailed them for this concern, they would've kept my money, and I wouldn't have received the dress.

Nordstrom is an overpriced scam

Nordstrom is an overpriced scam. I worked for the company and can confirm without question that every single thing they sell is AT LEAST 100% markup. And that’s no lie! I handled customer returns for 63 Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom Rack stores, let me tell you they marked up everything they purchased from home goods to fine jewelry. Every single item was marked up 100%+ what they purchased it for. DO NOT BUY! Nordstrom IS A SCAM!!!!! Ask Tim Witman….east coast distribution center manager. He will tell you Nordstrom is a mark up scam!!!!!

Mall of America/Nordstrom

Quite fashionable place.Limited choice when it comes to artistically designed clothes.From time to time I can find high quality and inspiring things reasonably priced.
Most of the time it is more about just showing off high prices than style and craftsmanship.
Has the company tried to match both ?
Employees show deficits in communication skills.I heard like one of them addressed a middle age lady as “ gal “
Lack of communication manners makes this place much less attractive.
Actually,it sounds comical at times :)

Please do better

I took my male friend into Nordstrom at Oakbrook Court. While we were in the shoe department my friend was approached by Cindy. My friend was wearing a pair of beautiful Calvin Klein pumps. Cindy had a look of disgust on her face and rudely questioned my friend. He graciously explained that men were the first to wear high heels. She made another comment about his shoes, then turned and left my friend.
At that point my friend felt humiliated by her lack of knowledge, and rudeness.
We felt unwelcome and singled out.

We left without purchasing anything. We ended up leaving the mall immediately because of the bad situation. We had originally planned on each of us purchasing a matching pair of pumps, and I needed to pick up some pants and a dress. We left with nothing.

5 hours later my friend was still shaking. I tried to get him to eat some dinner, but he couldn’t even eat.

Employees need to be aware of how their actions truly impact their customers. I don’t expect people to have knowledge about everything, but I do expect people to knowledge about the area they work in. Cindy should have knowledge about shoes, the history of shoes, and different cultures.

I expect better from Nordstrom. I am saddened by the deterioration of quality employees. Please do better.

Nordstrom gift card balance disappears/stolen

I am writing to share my deep disappointment with how Nordstrom has handled a serious issue regarding their gift cards and customer protection.

I received a $500 Nordstrom gift card as a Christmas gift from a family member. I used it once to make a purchase of about $130, leaving a remaining balance of approximately $370. However, when I attempted to use the card again just two months later during a sale, I was shocked to discover that the balance was $0.00. After contacting customer service, I was informed that the remaining funds had been stolen the very next day after my initial purchase.

What was even more concerning was the response I received. The customer service representative admitted that this type of fraud occurs frequently with Nordstrom gift cards and transferred me to the fraud department. Unfortunately, instead of taking accountability or offering a resolution, the fraud department dismissed my concerns and advised me to file a police report.

This is deeply troubling. Nordstrom has the ability to track where, when, and how a gift card is used, yet no effort was made to investigate or protect me as a customer. A company of Nordstrom’s reputation should take gift card security seriously and ensure that customers are not left vulnerable to theft.

Should've ordered with Macys

1st purchase made thru app on 8/13 Expected delivery was the 22nd. Was 1st told that the item arrived at store on the 18th then later revealed that the package was lost. Refund then denied. They lost my package and now denies a refund. What kind of insanity is this?

Non-stop crappy service

Non-stop crappy service. Merchandise at the RACK is not really much of a bargain. Shopping online and trying to return something through the mail is ridiculously EXPENSIVE. Pretty much ZERO help on the floor in the store. Only highlight was a young man at the Lynnwood,WA store was kind, quick, and courteous when I was returning something for the first time in-store.

Nordstrom in the Houston Galleria…

Nordstrom in the Houston Galleria downstairs in the ladies perfume department there’s a GORGEOUS tall lady by the name Janis with blond hair who looks like a runway model…. She’s the best to consult you on different perfumes and what pairs with it. If your shopping in Houston Nordstrom for women perfume please ask for Janice the absolute best …… Thanks Nordstrom because of her I purchased several high end perfumes…… so glad you have her apart of your staff the BEST.

Package not delivered- replacement /…

Package not delivered- replacement / refund declined. I am a lifelong customer of Nordstrom and I ordered a pair of running shoes to my apartment building. My building is new and the address was just recently added so many carriers have had issues getting packages to the right location. I believe my shoes were delivered to a neighboring building but was unable to locate them. I filed a claim with the carrier then reached out to Nordstrom directly about the issue. I live in a major city and these things are incredibly common. Every other company where ive run into this has graciously sent a replacement. I'd always had good experiences before, but this time they denied sending me a replacement or refund and I am out nearly $200 over a shipping mistake. They have lost me as a customer.
