Never got to talk to a person, but just to be able to try to talk to a someone was a giant pain. All I wanted to do was ask a question but I had to but in my email, receive a code, enter code. Im surprised you did want my dogs name.

Updated by user Mar 16, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. I received one of the backorders which were the shoes, the other one, pants, I am going to give up on.

Original review Mar 01, 2025
I have contacted the Customer Service office three different times. The first two were concerning the navy blue pants that I ordered sometime in October 2024, the last time I contacted them was mid February regarding a pair of tennis shoes I've ordered.

Each time I spoke with them I was told they were going to be shipped out that week. Today, March 1, 2025, I have not received either order.
I want my orders. If the item is unavailable then tell me, don't keep putting me off.
Coldwater Creek's quality of merchandise and the quality of service has dropped to the lowest it can get. You can stop sending me catalogs and text.

I do not intend to purchase anything else from them. Once you place your order to them, that is the last you hear from them until you receive the package in the mail.

You don't know when it has shipped or if it is unavailable. NOTHING!

SHIPPING TIME

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I placed an order on 2/11, and today is 3/11. I called customer service two weeks ago and was told all items were backordered and should be arriving on 3/10, then would be shipped out.

I purposely ordered to allow enough shipping time for my clothing (that I paid for) to arrive at my home before I leave on vacation for a month. I am beyond upset. I can't even find the email address for the corporate office; there are two listed, one in Florida and the other on the Eastern coast.

I call customer service, a representative working from home, and obtain no resolution, except that it's on its way! They certainly took my money fast.

Unauthorized charge

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I received an unauthorized charge today and I've chatted with Cokdwarer Creek several times and PayPal system seems to have a glitch. I've had no resolution. Paypal.com had indicted a $30 charge and a $43 charge that I'm not paying to resolve this

I just want my $63 + charge reimbursed!

Between helping wihh to my Moms orders and my own son have had to be on the phone with CC customer Service For various reasons for four out of the last five orders multiple times

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

My extended family and I have been placed in orders with cold water Creek for years. The quality of their clothes are excellent and we have been good customers however I am not sure what has happened to their customer service department, or out of the last five orders we have placed.

Ive been on the phone to customer service regarding different orders and different circumstances. I have been lied to lately after proving that I was lied to the representative hung up.

I have been deceitful paid for overnight shipping multiple times and was told a week later that they dont have control over when the shipments arrive, etc. what time is the they seem to be consistently giving horrible customer service so as of today I will no longer support the company nor will be cold water Creek customer.

Very unreliable on your account

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

You really have to watch your account closely with Coldwater Creek. I have returned several items and havent been refunded.

Also I ordered a dress in a Petite Large and a Petite Medium.

The large was 3 shorter than the Medium so obviously it was marked wrong. They still charged me $9.95 to return it even though the error was theirs.

Burned By Unethical Business Practices

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I ordered two items from Coldwater Creek, my Amex was charged immediately for BOTH items. Then, a day later, Amex informed me they'd charged another amount on my card.

Since they'd already charged for the two items, I flagged the charge, told Amex that I did not make a second order with them. I called Coldwater Creek customer service (outsourced to barely-English-speaking call center), and they told me that Coldwater Creek charges TWICE -- at point of sale, and then again when item is ready to ship, which is...what's the word?...oh, yeah, STEALING. Then, they say one item isn't even in stock (if I hadn't called, I'd never know, yet I was CHARGED TWICE FOR THIS). The other, they say, was shipped.

But it wasn't. They sent a shipping notice.

Still not shipped. Also, they inform you they will keep all sales tax if you return anything, which is an actual crime.

Warning to other potential customers

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

NeverBought three items - had to return two of the three - then noticed a 16.95 charge every month- tried to call to inquire get the customer service - no service runaround - no one answered after holding for over a hour . Discovered thru social media if you buy something they side in a sign up for rewards of which there is no disclosure on what the rewards really are?

So I bought one item and they are cheating the public out of this hidden sign up for a rewards program that you get no information about and unless you monitor your credit card statement you will be charged monthly for the privilege of buying something from them - maybe this is their way of recouping all the losses they encountered from declaring bankruptcy and rebranding their company - shame on Coldwater Creek! Will NEVER buy from them again!

Neither should you. Hope this message gets attention - if you dont believe me checkout their BBB reviews - repeated complaints all with same issue - and interestingly the responses from the company thru the BBB are all sanctimonious and condescending - the customer signed up for this - well all customers denied even knowing they signed up - maybe the company needs a class action lawsuit against them to get the message ?

Missized product

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Coldwater Creek - Missized product

Ordered 2 pairs of corduroy pants size 10.

Pants arrived and one pair is at least 3 sizes larger that other even though tages both say the same.size 10. Both pairs are larger than 10 and largest pair is probably at least a size 14!!!

They were unable to help me due to time lag in letting them know.

Had not tried on pants until fall when warmer pants were needed and I discovered the the wrong tag sizing!!! They were not willing to compensate me for their error!!!

No more ordering from this company!!!

User's recommendation: Make sure you try on clothes before you remove labels!!! Tag sizes are usually inaccurate!!

Finally received order today.

Order was finally received today. It's always disappointing not to receive your order when promised especially when it's a gift.

ORDER RECEIVED TODAY. Dont want to experience this again.

User's recommendation: Be careful when ordering Coldwater Creek shirts…they have been very small, and not up to their usual standards of quality…the shirts seem to be the only thing that is affected.
