Review of Nordstrom Rack customer complaints, rating & accreditation on Better Business Bureau
Is Nordstrom Rack registered on BBB?
Nordstrom Rack is not registered on BBB. Therefore, this business has no BBB rating and accreditation.
I spoke with customer service 3 time this week and it was such a waste of time. First of all I find it strange that all their customers service agents are names Juan with a different initial for the last name. I spoke with "Juan V" on Saturday regarding a return. I wanted to return 2 pairs of jeans and a shirt I purchased online. I've been on bed rest for 2 weeks because of surgery and missed the return cutoff day baby a day or so. He ensured me I would be receiving a label to return the items via usps in my email shortly and I would be refunded when the items are received. I waited a few hours and still didn't receive anything in my email including my junk mail and decided to contact customer service again just to make sure Nordstrom Rack had the correct email. I then spoke with "Juan E" who said the same thing and my label will be created it just takes a little bit of time because it is being created by a "Special Team" and I had nothing to worry about and in due time the label would be emailed to me. Fast forward 5 days of constant email checking I still have yet to receive the label. I contacted customer service today and spoke with "Juan S" and was told that I would not be receiving a label to return my items because it exceeded the time frame. After being told by 2 other customer service representatives that I had nothing to worry about and I would receive my label, I'm furious. I explained to "Juan S" that I was told by both "Juan V and Juan E" that my return was approved and I was ensured I would get a label he agreed and said it would be honored. I waited about a half an hour for "Juan S" to tell me I would not be receiving a label because the other 2 Juan's gave me false information. I'm so done with this company. Why waste my time and agree to helping me with my situation just to go back on what I was told?
After confirmation, I was contacted by an order specialist to verify info. I gather it's for "fraud protection" but it really doesn't seem like my transaction was that unusual. After that call, I got an email from them stating that my order couldn't be fulfilled, but just 1 part of it and the shipping was refunded. Nordstrom Rack didn't say what would happen to the remaining part and whether it would still be shipped with expedited delivery. I'd have to say that the specialists just had a little bit of a tone like they didn't really know what's going on too.
Sad that Nordstrom's brand is being tarnished, even though i guess it's their downmarket brand. From reading other reviews, i'm left to wonder if I'll even get my remaining order.
Ordered a pair of shoes for my mum and was told package would arrive in two weeks. This is the third week. Called Nordstorm Rack and was just told" oh sorry ma'am looks like your shoe was lost in transit, so a refund would be processed". (Mind you, when i called just last week, I was informed package would arrive Friday(09/24). The whole point is not just coming on to apologize to the customer that a refund would be issued. First of all, according to rep, this information became available the 1st week after order was placed but was never notified for me to make other arrangements. My mother travels tomorrow and I'm only finding out this from the company.
You guys have no clue the inconvenience and mess you've caused the customer. And to make matters worse, refund takes 5-7 business days. At this point, I had lost it. I believe this is sheer negligence and gross incompetence on the part of the company for not notifying about the circumstances surrounding the package. At least a courtesy call or email could help. But nothing even when I kept calling and tracking the package, no update!
This is also when I decided to make my Nordstrom Rack purchases online and have spent an enormous amount of money with the chain. However, following the latest attempt to portray me as a lying, piece of trash thief while making a return (July 1,2018), I have decided to cut my ties with NR, altogether including online. It will not happen. I will not willingly subject myself to humiliation, degradation and disparaging treatment.
I attempted to return a pair of running shoes and while having the original receipt, original tags, as well as the gift card used to make the previous purchase, I was hassled at the cash register by an old white woman who did not know what she was doing. After repeatedly showing the woman the receipt as well as lying it on the counter, I was still suspected of trying to return something that had been stolen. After all, black women do not run or work out. So, why would I have a pair of $40 Nike running pants in my possession? Perhaps for the same reason I had the latest (real) Louis Vuitton handbag on my shoulder, drove to the store in my 2015 BMW 528i, which had been parked in the driveway of my nice home located in Cary, a wealthy suburb of Raleigh. Yep. And, I didn't have to steal any of it. I used my own credit, credit score and wages to buy my fly stuff. However, public perception is that a black woman cannot possibly afford these things because most of us are unemployed, underemployed (retail workers), on public assistance and resort to buying fake designer goods in parking lots. This is a sad and sick commentary for black women who graduated from college, found careers, obtained master's degrees and found better careers because of their higher educational attainment. Nonetheless, black women are still placed into one category... the lowest segment of society and treated as such on a daily basis. I can't even shop for groceries without becoming a suspect.
This treatment of black women has to stop and to make matters worse, Nordstrom Rack is using black men to racially attack and disparage black female customers in its stores. This way, the store thinks it can't be accused of racist practices when it comes to profiling black customers. Blacks cannot discriminate against blacks, right? Wrong, Nordstrom Rack and shame on you for thinking that black people are naive to your game. The divide and conquer game is old.
I am making this appeal after learning that so many other black women (and black men) have experienced the same treatment while shopping at Nordstrom Rack stores. These folks, like myself, have taken to Instagram in order to tell their stories. Many have stated that what happened with Starbucks needs to happen with Nordstrom Rack and we will not stop until it does. NR needs to learn a lesson. NR needs to learn that in 2018, black people will call out racism at every turn, and big thanks to social media.
If you are African American and have been racially profiled while shopping at the Nordstrom Rack at Southpoint, please reply to this post. I want to hear from you. The Durham store is being targeted for a boycott. Do the right thing!
When I called the customer service line, I was told it would have to be processed with a USA issued credit card... a little dumbstruck, I inquired as to why, as there are options of "Canada" as the billing address. But I was told again that would be impossible. When I inquired how could it be possible then as a holder of a Canadian issued credit card to make purchases on the "nordstromrack" site, she told me flat out it would be impossible.
I found this baffling, as it was listed Visa and Mastercard were acceptable payments. So I gave them an email, more so out of curiosity and to provide them with feedback, if Canadian issued cards were not accepted properly or parts of their service teams were missing some links.
I later received an email confirming Nordstrom Rack do accept Canadian issued Visa and Mastercards. I was unable to reply to ask how to best proceed as it seems my email was blocked... even though the email to me finished with a invitation "Thank you for your time. Please let me know if there is anything else I may assist you with..."
The experience was irksome and fruitless. I would love to see an improvement to their online customer support. All in all I found it really surprising, as I was someone with more then the sufficient funds, throwing money at the company.
This online store is also incapable of displaying the actual status of stocks in REAL TIME. You order an item, the status of the item is "ORDERED" in their system, then they will advise you that they no longer have a stock of the item, hence, the item is cancelled.
Rockets are being launched from computers, but Nordstrom Rack, a retail giant, is not capable of displaying which items and sizes are available, and which are out of stock. If net-a-porter, eastbay, and even offspring.co.uk have the capabilities to display actual stocks in real time, one will wonder why can't Nordstromrack do this?
A suggested solution is to review the capability and capacity of your whole IT department and logistics department, including the infrastructure, policies, and procedures. Set some reasonable service level standards. If complaints like these would continue to exist, then sack the incompetent Senior Managers running these departments.
The Nordstrom Rack website shows delivery carrier performing delivery to be FEDEX. I clicked on the tracking link and FEDEX has no record of the package in their system.
It turns out UPS was the actual carrier that would be delivering the much anticipated package containing my Lacoste items. Below is a quick breakdown.
Label is created on May 24th. Product is shipped on May 24th. The item is returned to Sender on the 27th May from California to N. Y. - Item is OUT FOR DELIVERY in Melville N. Y. on June 4th at 09:24 A.M. and delivered and signed for at 10:53 on June 4th.
The reason why i show the information above is because there is NO MENTION of the package being OUT FOR DELIVERY to my home on the UPS website. WHY? Because the Shipper (LACOSTE) intercepted the package on the 26th of MAY (an entire day) before it reached the UPS VERNON CA HUB.
I spoke to Erik (Nordstrom Rack Weekend Supervisor) and he made no mention of an intercept. He mentioned that Lacoste used UPS though Nordstrom Rack had provided LACOSTE with a FEDEX label for my parcel. He mentioned that He would call UPS on Monday to ask why the package never showed OUT FOR DELIVER to my residence and also WHY there was no mention of an ATTEMPTED DELIVERY to my Residence. I truly doubt he will call me back as I'm sure this has happened to several customers several times in the past 2 weeks or so.
WHY WOULD LACOSTE INTERCEPT THIS PACKAGE ON THE 26th of MAY, HAVE IT RETURNED TO THEIR MELVILLE N. Y. FACILITY ON THE 4th of JUNE AND NEVER BOTHER TO SEND ANY KIND OF COMMUNICATION REGARDING THE ISSUE I DETAILED ABOVE?
THIS HAS TO BE FALSE ADVERTISEMENT!
I ordered 2 more LACOSTE sunglasses from Nordstrom Rack on the 28th of MAY (before I discovered that the first order was intercepted and routed back to shipper at shipper's request). Once again Nordstrom Rack shows FEDEX but UPS is the actual carrier that was assigned. UPS shows that the label was created on the 1st June and Shipped on 1st of June. NO FURTHER UPDATE OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER AND IT'S THE 5TH OF JUNE!
I bet anything that this order was cancelled before it actually ever shipped. AH... ONE LAST THING.
Nordstrom Rack has an extremely slow refund process even if you take the item you wish to return to an actual NORDSTROM RACK STORE, the refund will take 5 to 8 business days to be processed and an other 5 business days for your bank to show refund as having been received and available in your account.
NOT THIS TIME. MY REFUND WAS MADE AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY... AND NOT BY MY REQUEST. AND NOT BY A SUPERVISOR OR MANAGER. IT WAS OFFERED AND PROCESSED BY A CONTRATCOR IN SOUTH AMERICA THAT NORDSTROM RACK FARMS OUT THEIR CALL CENTER TO AFTER BUSINESS HOURS.
I HAVE PROOF OF EVERYTHING I POST ALWAYS!
Mario Leather Derby shoes in my size. It was a brand I knew to be high quality at a still hefty, but manageable price. The order was in process, and due to COVID19 I figured things were just delayed. Nordstrom Rack never showed up. A month and a half later I talk to customer service. It looks like they never actually processed the order (no way for me to tell that) and as a result no shipment order was sent to a storage facility. They are now out of stock in my size.
The service agent was very nice and apologetic, but all they did was offer to allow me to purchase a shoe that was up to $30 dollars more expensive at the same price as my original shoe. There were a grand total of TWO black shoes this applied to, both of which were ugly and not at all what I wanted. What a joke. No "hey sorry about our screw up and wasting your time, here is a voucher or a credit you can use on any shoes." I will not be purchasing anything through this company again. They clearly do not actually care about customer service.
I was under the impression the point of shopping online to try things on at home see if Nordstrom Rack fit and return what doesn't fit or what you don't like? Why would it matter to them if I am returning items on my time using my gas?
A great suggestion would be to post better reviews and details on their items my returns would be significantly less.
My sister got married and I had several weddings over the past 5 years. Lots of dresses purchased and returned. Lots of celebrations and events mean new dresses and outfits.
Losing weight? Yep, I did that too, (because of an illness), and if they would look they'd see the sizing changed and I was trying to figure it out along the way. In the privacy of my own home where I wouldn't have to try on clothing in their rooms. Which to note, at least in my experience are barely covering and have had people walk in on me and could peer through the rooms. Highly suggest you do this in your stores. This is one reason I purchase everything in the store, go home and return items.
They calculated my returns over the past 10 years! If they were paying return fees I would understand them canceling my account but they're not. They're not executing correctly. I ordered a few thousand just to see if it would work and it did. I'll of course return as I will continue to even more now!
Andrew and Amy, you've really lost touch with customers.
The letter: We recently reached out to let you know that the rate of returns on your online shopping account is unusually high, and that we are no longer able to accept this volume of returns.

After the first note I called and explained to them all of this. The lady was really nice and said she would note that and it shouldn't be an issue. I waited about 90 days and purchased items over the holidays. Well, c'mon most of these items were gifts so I would imagine returns do increase during this time. Low and behold a month after my holiday shopping, I received the above letter. Cutting costs, I understand, I'm the CMO of a company and am involved in board meetings with these conversations. One item I love about my company is that we look at individuals on a case by case basis. If a customer called to explain what happened and had valid reasons for their behaviors, I would make an exception.
In conclusion this is more of a review for the executives to see and less for consumers. Warning to consumers is don't shop online if there is a small possibility you won't like the item!

On 06June, I had notification that the "USPS" -the United States Post Office had a delivery for me- AND, it wasn't even the entire order, it was one little item (a 3-pack of socks) so I paid $7.95 to have the US Mail deliver a pack of socks? The cost to send a 3-pack of socks is 0.55 cents. PLUS, if I had been told that Nordstrom Rack used USPS to deliver the order, I wouldn't have ordered it.
Now, it's 8 days later and I still don't have the item that I was told would arrive in 3-5 days. Nordstrom Rack deliberately misled me (by sending me an email stating Fed Ex would be delivering my order) when it was never even entered into FedEx system. My order was boxed and prepared to be shipped through USPS, there was never any intent to deliver using FedEx.
This company sucks so bad that they have to try to make money off of their customers by overcharging for shipping rates? -THAT'S PATHETIC!
Also, make sure you notice on their website that they can send you anything they want because they "Claim" that the items they sell can be "similar" to the item that you are misled to believe you're buying. STAY AWAY from this COMPANY unless you want to be misled and disappointed. They shouldn't be allowed to use the Nordstrom name!
From their website: Is the merchandise at nordstromrack.com the same as in Nordstrom Rack stores?
While the brands and styles offered online are similar to the items found in Nordstrom Rack stores, inventory moves fast and may not mirror exactly what you find in store. Whether shopping online or in-store, you'll always find something new.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY- They overcharge and falsely represent how they do business AND, their return policy requires the customer to pay for the return!
At one point I had to even open a BBB case, because the customer service sucked so much. Seriously? Come on guys. Fortunately a Nordstrom Rack just opened in our area. Problem solved. Always great shoe selection, in fact that's the main thing I buy from any Nordstrom Rack. Some pretty good selection on clothes too, but a little hit or miss on plus size clothing, mostly a miss.
Got some super cute Uggs at a great price, plus some great rain boots and other boots as well this winter, before our local Nordstrom Rack opened. Merchandise great, almost always, but again, and I cannot stress this enough, customer service is an absolute abomination! Fire them all and start from scratch.
Item's that are out of stock, listed as "in stock" and after placing my order, I got a cancellation email.
Nordstrom Rack also use the most unreliable company for International shipping, Land Mark Globel, and land mark has a sub contractor delivery company - Apple Express. Both companies, the least effective and most unreliable.
Inquiries about my returns was a nightmare. It took over a month to get my money back.
Every time I call, I got a different explanation. One of the agent puts me on hold to find out why it's taking too long, and she came back after 15 min hold to tale me that her supervisor will give me a call back... half hour later, supervisor 'Adrian' called back. Very ARROGANT. He didn't even have the common courtesy... his tone of voice sounds like he was on the brink of a mental breakdown. Certainly, I have a right to inquire about my money, I didn't understand his behavior at all.
I e-mailed customer relations, never got an answer.
Nordstrom Rack, YOU have the worst customet SERVICE that ranks at the bottom. Your policy and customer care department needs some cleanup.
Very disappointing.
I WILL NEVER SHOP AGAIN ON YOUR SITE
The order came separately, the tank top and tennis shoes came first. One pair of sandal came a few days later. I thought it was strange that only one pair of sandal came so I went on line to check my order. I found out that my tank top actually was charged with $10.78 and only one pair of sandal was included, which brought my order under $100 and I was charged with $7.95 for shipping.
I contact the representative on line, who was rude and unaccommodating. She said I should check my order next time but she did not explain why the tank top price went up or what could possibly happened between the screen when I placed the order and the one showed the final order. By the way, the shipping slips coming with the products did not list any price.
To customers who would order products on line, please check your order carefully before placing it. As for me, I would not shop on line again.
I did in fact spoke with a "Customer Care" representative. Although I feel that title is misleading because they did not help in any way nor did they seem to care much about my problem. When asked about when Order Reviews contacted me, they lied and said that they tried to reach me on July 16. I checked my call logs and I received NO CALLS on that date. When asked why they didn't leave any messages as to the problems they had with my order, the customer "care" rep actually had the audacity to say that they didn't leave a message due to "security reasons". So let me get this straight, they "tried" to contact me but left no messages regarding problems with my order because of "security reasons"? WHO BUYS THAT LOAD OF CRAP? Anyway the rep did not help at all and actually ended up LEAVING the chat room before anything was resolved.
HERE IS A SHORT LIST OF THEIR MANY VERY SERIOUS PROBLEMS THAT MAY CONVINCE YOU TO TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE:
Their online business has always had lots of problems... more so than any other online retailer I have ever done business with. However, within the last six months, the scope and nature of the problems have increased exponentially.
EXAMPLES OF PROBLEMS THAT MAKE SHOPPING WITH NORDSTROMRACK.COM A NIGHTMARE:
The company has deleted all CUSTOMER TRANSACTIONS HISTORY; Deleted all CUSTOMER FAVORITES FOLDERS; Merged all customer online accounts with their NORDSTROM.COM ONLINE ACCOUNTS, (For customers who also had a Nordstrom.com online account), AND NEVER CONTACTED OR INFORMED CUSTOMERS ABOUT THESE ACTIONS.
Frequent CANCELLATIONS OF CUSTOMERS' ORDERS without notice or apologies, or compensation, considering that Nordstrom Rack always CHARGE CUSTOMER ACCOUNTS BEFORE ORDERS ARE SHIPPED.
Nordstrom Rack has STOPPED SENDING SHIPPING CONFIRMATION EMAILS to customers, and quite often, they DO NOT PROVIDE CUSTOMERS WITH ORDER CONFIRMATION emails.
THEY FREQUENTLY SHIP THE WRONG ITEMS, (about 5 out of every 10 orders I place).
Frequently SHIPS DAMAGED ITEMS to customers. (About 4 out of every 10 orders I place with them).
Now THEY ARE SHIPPING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ORDERS IN THE SAME PACKAGE, without informing the customer, and usually with incorrect order numbers, making it very difficult to return items, because the items do not have separate shipping labels or tracking numbers, and therefore do not appear in their computer system as having been delivered.
NORDSTROM RACK WEBSITE has hundreds of items with descriptions and images that are completely wrong. This problem has existed for as long as I have been shopping with them.
INVENTORY PROBLEMS: This problem has always existed, and results in FREQUENT CANCELLATIONS OF ORDERS.
Very often, their website will show that there are multiple of the same items available for purchase. However, after you have completed an order, and paid for it, they will cancel your order a few days later, then refund your account about 5 days or so afterwards. This practice is very common. They hold on to your money, earn interest on it, then cancel your order without compensation.
WEBSITE MALFUNCTIONS CONTINUOUSLY.
FREQUENT CRASHES; Items disappearing from their web pages, then reappearing minutes later.
ITEMS switching from SOLD OUT, to AVAILABLE IN MULTIPLE QUANTITIES within a matter of seconds.
ARCHAIC AND EXTREMELY UNRELIABLE INVENTORY SYSTEM.
You never know if your transaction is complete, even after you have paid for the item. Far too often, they show items on their website that are not available for purchase.
ENGAGES IN DECEPTIVE PROMOTION SCHEMES TO ATTRACT CUSTOMERS:
Recently, NORDSTROM RACK ONLINE had a promotion that appeared at checkout, INDICATING THAT CUSTOMERS WOULD RECEIVE A $5 CREDIT FOR EVERY $50 SPENT.
HOWEVER, customers were not receiving any $5 credit as promised. I called and spoke to a CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER, who told me that neither she, nor any of her workers had any knowledge about it. A couple weeks later they pulled the promotion from the website.
SHIPPING ITEMS TO LOCAL STORES FOR PICK UP:
This new service has problems. Nordstrom Rack Stores do not notify customers that their orders have arrived, and is ready for pickup. And to make matters worse, customers NO LONGER RECEIVE SHIPPING CONFIRMATION EMAILS OR TRACKING NUMBERS FOR ITEMS ORDERED AT NORDSTROMRACK.COM.
LASTLY:
TERRIBLE TELEPHONE CUSTOMER SERVICE.
JUST TODAY, I HAVE HAD 7 DIFFERENT EMPLOYEES HANG UP THE PHONE ON ME. NOT ONLY CUSTOMER SERVICE EMPLOYEES LOCATED IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES, BUT ALSO TELEPHONE SERVICE EMPLOYEES AND MANAGERS HERE IN AMERICA.
THEY SEEM TO ALWAYS BE ANGRY AND DISGRUNTLED. THIS MORNING I CALLED TECH SUPPORT ABOUT ONGOING ACCOUNT PROBLEMS. THE TECH PERSON WAS LOCATED IN FAIRFAX, IOWA. HE WAS VERY RUDE, AND ANGRY BECAUSE HE FELT THAT I WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE TECH SUPPORT PHONE NUMBER, WHICH WAS PROVIDED TO ME BY A CUSTOMER SERVICE EMPLOYEE. HE ORDERED ME TO CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE, THEN ABRUPTLY HUNG UP ON ME.
THAT'S NORDSTROMRACK.COM IN A NUTSHELL.
IF YOU WANT TO AVOID EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, LOSS OF MONEY AND TIME, DAMAGED AND WRONG ITEMS BEING SENT TO YOU, FREQUENT CANCELLATIONS, AND HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, THEN SHOP ON AMAZON OR ANY OTHER PLATFORM. MANY ONLINE RETAIL OUTLETS HAVE THE SAME ITEMS AS NORDSTROMRACK.COM, IN ADDITION TO MUCH BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SUPERIOR SHOPPING EXPERIENCE.
Flash forward 8 months and I place a $200 order with them, giving my new address and they still ship it to my old address. I was waiting on hold for 20 mins just to be disconnected. Waiting my second time now... 8 mins in. Now once being connected to a manager, because the service lady couldn't re-route my package. I find that half of it can be rerouted, so the main part, a jacket that I got for Denver next week, will be shipped to the wrong address. The manager even provided the right address, that I've never used on their site until this order. Proving that I provided the correct shipping address. They are making my mother, who the package was shipped to and who has severe lupus drive 30 mins to the nearest post office pay $30 to overnight it to me and the manager says, sorry nothing I can do. Horrible. Worst customer service. You may as well be a discounted Ross or TJ Maxx.
