Verified ReviewerNO refund and circle around back and forth-nothing
I felt customer service online chat or phone or email; nobody cares about the customer. My two items from the online order were returned to the counter at JC Penney.
No refund has been made. I contacted customer service four times, went to the store, and received an email today with the case number. They said they cannot see the returned items on their end, so I need to go talk to the store again. It's very bad.
I am tired, and I told them just to refund me for what I returned. There is no process, and nothing is clear.
Do not buy, or even if you buy, don't return. They do not refund you.
- Have variety of goods designs
- Customer service answer chat
- Phone but nothing solved
Preferred solution: Full refund

What happened to Cabin Creek pants?!?!
I am beyond devastated that JCPenney has discontinued their line of Cabin Creek pants! I have been wearing their twill and corduroy pants for 25-30 years, and am absolutely beside myself wondering what I will do now for pants.
They fit well, are extremely comfortable, and looked professional at work (teaching) and casual enough for weekends and around the house. I seriously have no idea what I will order now, and am angry enough to cancel my Penney's charge account. I cannot be the only woman who feels this way, since I believe they were a popular item. I realize that most companies are trying to appeal to younger shoppers, but you are making a BIG MISTAKE ...
there are a lot of us baby boomers around with money to spend on products we like!! In case you have been living under a rock, by the way, there are more of us boomers than any younger mini generation, so why would you want to lose all of us as customers? I have been a loyal Penney's shopper since I was a teen myself, but I am extremely disappointed that my absolute favorite product has been discontinued.
I have already spent hours online trying desperately to find corduroy pants that are similar to Cabin Creek, and have had no luck yet. I would gladly do a free commercial for JCPenney, jumping for joy at the return of Cabin Creek pants!!

Verified Reviewer |Being charged for bed I never received
I placed an order at the beginning of July for a platform bed and was informed after I completed the order that it would not be delivered until after or around July 18. So, I proceeded to cancel the order within 12 hours of ordering it because I needed the bed much sooner than July 18.
I was informed that it had already been put out for delivery and the expected delivery date would be July 8. As of July 8, I had not received the bed, so I checked the tracking number of UPS and it was delivered to an old address that I had, which is two states away from where I live now. I called my sister, who lives close by, to get her to go over and get the bed. She sent her son over there to retrieve the bed from a property where they are building a house.
He went through the house and the yard, to which there was no bed. He took pictures to prove that there was no bed.
As of now, I still don't know what happened to the bed. I thought, when I called numerous times, that I could not come to a resolution to this matter, so I deeply regret not ever wanting to do business with this company again because I'm paying for something that I never got.
- Never try to cancel an order
- Good customer service
Preferred solution: Full refund

Billing
I couldn't get on the website with my password. When I tried to change it with the way it's designed - after 4 times I was unable to.
When I Tried "contact" help I couldn't get on either. When I finally found the phone # I had to listen to advertisements and it was hard to get an agent, but when I finally did he was very helpful. When he pulled up my statement he found I had been charged a late fee but I never got a bill!
He graciously removed it and I was able to pay by phone. I will continue to shop at JC Penneys but will never use their card again.
User's recommendation: Don't use their credit card.

Verified Reviewer |Assistant manager don’t care about customers or associates
I know that I am just one simple individual in this universe, but I pray that you have a kind heart and soul. I understand that I am not God or someone with high power/abilities, however attending school and reading books, I learn more as I grow in life.
Allow me to get straight to the point by stating that I recently got hired to work at one of your many locations in the USA for JCPenney. My father is a doctor and my mother is an attorney, both in the military, so growing up with values and in an old-fashioned way, I understand that we must all treat everyone with respect and kindness. My only request is to remain anonymous due to what I'm about to let you know. I understand everyone has their own way of running things, but there are some things I have noticed at work that should be taken into consideration.
For example, there is a Lead on Duty (LOD) that always hides in the back instead of being on the sales floor taking care of customers or assisting fellow staff. The LOD has favourite personnel because she allows a few coworkers to slack off or be on the phone talking or using work hours for personal use. Also, there have been times when the LOD ignores calls from the cashiers, recovery team or anyone through the walkie or page. I know there was a visit from the district manager in this store, however, I feel that if the district manager were to talk with us one on one and get our perspective, perhaps you all could see what’s going on in this place.
When the store manager is around, everything goes smoothly but when she leaves, the LOD does things that are unprofessional or inappropriate. Another thing is, she would be blasting songs that are not family-friendly and her actions are driving customers away and making comrades at work feel unhappy. One thing that I will have to say is that a fellow employee overheard that the LOD said someone should just stop existing in this world. Now, I know many younger generations like myself say things randomly and sometimes those things can be misinterpreted.
Being the holiday time, my concern is that she shouldn't say something like that because during this time of year, many people could take what is said to them to heart and it can sometimes cause depression or anxiety and can affect someone’s life. I am saying this because, as a human being in this galaxy, it is important to take a few minutes of your life to check on everyone and make sure they are safe, happy and healthy. Perhaps JCPenney has a different way of running things at this location, but there are things here that are not compliant to my knowledge. I have noticed that the LOD behaves in an intimidating way towards the customers and the associates, to assure that things are run her way, not the JCPenney way.
I applied to work at JCPenney because I was told that it is a good experience, but I think this retail store department has a different idea of 'good experience' in their manual. I wish you a wonderful Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
I will pray that perhaps you will personally visit this store location, even the CEO, just to gain insight and understanding of what's going on. I'm not asking for anything, just looking out for every human being because most importantly, we are all people.
- Everything especially lod the one that is unprofessional
Preferred solution: Apology
User's recommendation: Don’t shop or buy at the Waco Texas JCPenney because of the way the assistant manager she is very rude and unprofessional

Verified Reviewer.not happy at the moment
Order cancelled 4 times . Called to see why it was cancelled so much.
They put in a case # to see why. I am not very happy with jc penny right now This is something Ive always wanted. I thought jc penney would be a safe bet.
NOT!!! Still no answer .might have to order some where else.l
.my ordered has been cancelled 4 times. Really want item.
I don't get it. I thought JCPenney would more effort.
Credit card user fees
I noticed that I am charged $1.99 for the usage of your Master Card credit card. I have challenged this serval times and had it stricken from my bill.
JCPenny is the only retail store that we shop at that charges a usage fee. Both Macey's and Kohls do not.
Since I am required to pay for the provide of using your Master Card I will adhere to sum on my account. I will not be using your credit card in the future and may rethink my shopping options to retail outlets with no usage fees.

I was at your store in Palmdale, CA. AND I am "Not Pissed" at the customer service I got today at jcpenney. t
Hello, I went looking for my hair conditioner today at your store in Palmdale, CA
I was greeted immediately by an employee from inside the salon.
Whom I asked "if I could get prices for a couple different size bottles" they had on display. Of course she said and even better she tells me "it was on sale buy1get1 50% off." Perfect, I said
We looked throughout but could not find the larger size bottle for "curly hair" types.
So, she asks if I could please, give her a few minuted to see if it was on the display in another part of the store. I said yes, of course.
Several minutes pass, and she comes around the corner in a brisk walk and huge smile. Though she did not find the large size of my product she was not empty-handed. She was so happy it seems she found a larger size for the same price as the regular.
I was so impressed that she went out of her way, to find me the best deal.
Tamara, was the kindest person, with the biggest smile who really knew her stuff.
I Love That!
After completing my order she gave me her card and said she was a hair stylist, she always worked on Tuesday's. And she says, "I am also very good at cutting curly hair,
Because it's just like mine!"
So kudo's to you JCPenneys for hiring

User's recommendation: If you have frizzy curly hair in need of a great haircutcut or salon quality hair products. Go visit Tamera Andrew at the JCP Salon at the AV Mall.
This is a company that was once an admirer company by everyone, however by having horrible bad managment at the top JCP will fail. It is so sad and should be criminal.
There is none! The horrible top level management at JCP is incredibly incompetent to turn this company back to what it once was.
I went thru JCP management training in the 70s and it was like getting a PHD IN retailing 101.
These people do not have a single clue. I feel with the proper management JCP could return to their glory days.
Unsatisfied with product
So I bought some 3x tall black shirts in the 5 pack I got 3 packs of them from jcpenny . They were literally like dry rotted I literally was so dissatisfied. Like when I washed them they fell apart

Corduroy pants are for little boys.
You must own hundreds of pairs then.
I don't know who Cyndy is, but the person calling me Cyndy made posts about being attracted to kids. They also need to know that telling someone that they are wrong is NOT TROLLING.
Cheers
"beyond devastated" "absolutely beside myself" ? You're a teacher ? Keep your melodramatics away from my children, please.
Keep your crotch droppings away from others!
I totally agree. My mom can’t find any pants. I don’t know what she is going to do— walk around in pajamas?
I am disappointed also about the discontinuation of cabin creek jeans. Haven’t found any satisfactory jeans since
Try IZOD or LL Bean jeans - both are fantastic. However, IZOD is my current favorite!
JCP at Apple Bassam Mall in Virginia is great. I came to see the service of two ladies' working there ( Teresa and --) who both went above and beyond their regular duty.
They spent the time to assist me in fixing issues related to two Jackets purchased.
I offered them money and they refused and said this is their duty. They were really great.
She said it alllll!!!!!
Yes I agree I have been looking also . Have wore them for years. Love the corduroys wish they would sell them again.
Absolutely agree! If JC Penney would have kept some things like this instead of trying to be so hip maybe they wouldn't be in bankruptcy.
I used to buy all my clothes at JC Penney and now I never shop there any more. I can't be the only one.
Same here. I haven't been in JCPenney in well over a year. There is just nothing there for me either any more.
wtf
I agree, I don't shop there either!
I have been wearing Cabin Creek corduroy pants for years and they are worn out. Where can I find them?
Really miss Cabin Creek brand. Can’t find anything else at Penney’s.
Although I am not a baby boomer (a gen-Xer), I too have been wearing the Cabin Creek twill pants for years. I need casual dress pants for work and these fit the bill. Now, I cannot find any that I like.
I found something very close from Woman Within. I purchased on Amazon. I take plus size, so they many not be for you, but if that is what you need, check out "Woman Within Women's Plus Size Elastic-Waist Cotton Straight Leg Pant".
