Nordstrom Reviews 

Isabella northstorm doesn’t know how to do her job sent us to the wrong location. Get more better workers

Ordered 1 thing 3 weeks ago and had to contact customer service 5 different times (Only did anything when I called) to try to get it cancelled because it never shipped out to me and an agent told me it wasn’t going to. The most help they could offer me was telling me to re-order it myself. Even amazon would’ve re-ordered on my behalf and maybe even refunded in addition. This is completely unacceptable for a company and based on other reviews, I should’ve expected this experience.

In the Mens' Department, I watched as my son received top notch, personal service from Sammy and Raymond. They outfitted him with suits, ties, pocket handkerchiefs and shirts for a business trip. The suit pants were altered for free for pickup by noon the next day. I recommend this department wholeheartedly, they provided a tremendous service.

False advertising. When you buy a fragrance online, and there is a link below it that says free gift for purchase you make the purchase for $290 and then when you get your item there’s no gift with the purchase. You call to complain and they say oh that doesn’t include the tax so you end up with no free gift that they claim had a $30 value poor customer service.

Be aware they use a shipping company called ontrac /laser ship that steals your packages . Please go on Yelp and google and read the reviews . I was waiting on a package to be delivered which never was today . I get online and I see all of the bad reviews about the delivery company .

horrible as they failed to post my last payment though they verified the payment was received

Horrific customer service. You get stonewalled and gaslighted or totally ignored. They refuse to let you speak to a manager yet none of the agents actually help you with fhe problem.

I went to the store at Miracle Marketplace looking for shoes that is saw it online but I could find it at the men section shoes, I receive at high customer support by a Young lady named Carol, she was super nice, gently and helpful, definitely we need more people like her!!

Terrible company. I cancelled the credit card because it is terrible, and then they are switching companies. I returned another terrible product, and my refund is in the quagmire. It will take up to 8 weeks because I cancelled the card. Then they will ask where I want the refund to go. A gift card, she thinks. I told her I hate this place and do not want to purchase anything from here. I got the run-around answer.

Wow, Nordstrom is actually a total scam. I ordered a $200 bag and they sent me the wrong item and wouldn’t do a thing to help me. I will never shop here again.

I was travelling and tried to use my credit card and was declined. After wasting hours with many calls customer service including their AI assistant I must conclude that this card is not worth it and gives Nordstrom’s a really bad name.

Terrible experience buying sporting shoes, I was helped by 2 different employees , then when I check out they were fighting in front of me, to determine who took care of me, I assume there was a money commission involved.

They refused to honor their return policy. Multiple calls with various people all acknowledge the item was within their return policy window, yet refusing to accept the return.

I ordered a pair of shoes in uk size 7.5, Nordstrom sent u.s size 7.5, so obviously the shoes don’t fit, they sent me a returns label, I went to a dhl to post it which would have cost £67. The chap was unable to process the parcel, I’m stuck with a pair of £230 shoes. DONT BUY ANYTHING FROM NORDSTROM

I’ve been a customer for decades, but unfortunately I’m done.

In-store salespeople are usually helpful, but customer service has been disappointing. Twice in the past six months I tried to use gift cards (two different cards) and was told there was no balance. The first time, someone in the store was able to fix it and mentioned there had been issues with cards purchased through other retailers.

The second time, at the Topanga store, the support call was so full of echo that neither the salesperson nor I could hear properly. Ultimately, I was told it was my problem and given an email address. The response I received was rude and unhelpful.

This has also happened to my daughter, so we can’t be the only ones experiencing it. Being told to contact the original purchaser—when it was a gift—is unreasonable. Expecting me to track down who gave me multiple gift cards to resolve their system issue is even more so.

Nordstrom takes no responsibility, so they’ve lost my business.

I ordered a very expensive necklace. The package was left outside of my apartment and was stolen. Customer service was HORRIBLE. They basically said that they don’t believe me or care even though I had video evidence. They refused to help me in any way so my last option was to contact my bank. My bank agreed that Nordstrom was at fault here and managed to get my money back. Never again.

A loyal customer of 35 years, I can no longer recommend Nordstrom. It is no longer safe to return by mail, even tracked methods like FedEx. Not only I am out of pocket thousands from packages misdelivered or stolen by Ontrac but even worse, for returns documented received by Nordstrom but not refunded. One example: in Aug 2025, I returned a St. John's coat from anniversary sale because it arrived with black buttons (depicted white/gold buttons on website) that looked terrible. FedEx delivered my return which Nordstrom documented on my account. Weeks later I saw that the $1200 return had not been refunded. After contacting customer service, I received an email from "Delivery Research," an off shore Indian call center, stating that while my return was received, the warehouse could not locate it so my refund is denied. WTH?? Your warehouse loses (more likely stole) the item so I'm not refunded?? Even worse, my online account was then altered not to show the item as received by warehouse so it appears online as if I still have the coat. Completely unscrupulous and dishonest. And how can an offshore "Delivery Research" based in India have any real knowledge of what goes on in US warehouses or do any actual research? It cannot. It was created by Nordstrom as an inexpensive method to fob off unhappy customers who are not refunded of which there must now be thousands.

No option but to do returns in person -- inconvenient but at least reliable or so I thought. BTW, even Nordstrom's own sales people told me they would never do returns via mail. Several have said it. In-store returns are now made as difficult & unpleasant as possible. Immediately upon going to the "customer service desk" conveniently (not) located on the 3rd floor, you are instructed to take your return to any register; if you do so and can find a sales person, they will grudging & slowly process it. Several times very expensive items were left off the return but I noticed, called it out & got a big "oops" when salesperson caught in the act of thievery as if it were accidental. It's happened too many times - and only with expensive items - for it to be accidental. Adding insult to injury, the Nordstrom nearest us has now instituted a 20 item limit to returns. When more than 20 items, you must make an appointment. ????
I shop for family of four, quite often things do not fit, or arrived USED, or the quality is lacking, or I've order multiple colors/sizes. It's just a means of making returns as inconvenient and unpleasant as possible so customers do not return items. This once venerable institution has tanked; I now shop at other stores first without the vast number of missing delivery and returns and no useless offshore "delivery research" idiots who cannot possibly "research" and simply send unhelpful borderline emails denying refunds even when the item is documented as returned to their warehouse. To conclude, I now shop elsewhere first and only buy @ Nordstrom if I cannot find anywhere else. Disturbing to see decline of once fantastic retailer but seemingly par for the course.

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, late, complete incompetence by customer service, can’t find shipped item, and now I’ve been waiting at curbside pick-up for 35 minutes. This is three consecutive orders that have been a COMPLETE disaster. I don’t think I can shop here anymore…

The worst customer service that I have experienced in US. No cancellation or return accepted within 10 minutes from placing an order. 1 item - They chose expedited shipping for me and now for that reason, I cannot cancel.

The worst online service. Order a jacket had email confirmation 8 hours later canceled the order. Customer service rep dumb as a rocks. Every excuse in the book why my order couldn't be fulfilled I'm done with Nordstrom's I would suggest never buying anything from Nordstrom's they're just another horrible retailer that just is all about how much money they can make and care less about the customer service they get and I will be canceling my credit card and I know you don't really give a s*** but my depends elsewhere but you won't get any more of it
