    I’m extremely disappointed with the online process. My scheduled pickup was completely missed. I was tracking my order, and the page transfer me to ODP business solution. You have only option for chat and I did. First, they didn't find my order, then connected me with an agent (through chat and I never knew it was virtual agent or real one). The agent Logan connected with agent Ligia and after 20 min they told me my order was shipped but after that they didn't find any update and if want they can refund my money in 5 to 7 business days or reorder, simple as that and shut down the chat. Conclusion Office Depot plays with the customers' money and offer bad service. NEVER AGAIN! And they lost a customer for more than 20 years.

    Never in my life have I been treated so badly as in your store. Almost empty. I just needed a little help getting copies for a surgery I'm having tomorrow and for information on my apartment that was flooded and left me almost homeless. I went in and went to the copy area and asked an employee behind a register not helping anyone as the store was almost empty. So I asked how much per copy for one sided black and white copies. She said, "I don't know. It's on the wall over there." So I go and read every word on the wall and nothing. So I finally see prices on a small card by the. Computers. I had a gift card as I use to use Office Depot all the time never again. I knew I would need help taking the copies off my phone and seeing the balance on my card from past office depot. So I go back to miss rude and ask if she can help me. She says no but points to a woman helping one of the only customers in the store beside myself.

    So now I'm getting angry and I believe I said, "You don't need to be so nasty." So now the young kid comes and stands by her like I'm a threat. So I go over and stand by the employee who is going to help me. I guess I was in an area that I should not have been and you would have thought I was robbing the place. I'm 71 years old and in kidney failure. No threat to anyone as far as I can see. So I get yelled at by miss nasty and the other person who was standing by said she didn't know. So I stand in line and wait at least ten minutes to have the only person working. I wait and didn't say a word because bottom line I really need these copies.

    Girl gets done and walks away from customer and myself. And the customer says to her, "You're not going to make this woman walk all the way around to get help." Employee ignores her as well. By now my kidney is killing me and I am out of patience so I get my purse out of my cart and walk out and say I have never in my life been treated so badly. So tomorrow I haven't got the copies and I also threw my gift card in the trash. Never again will I go to any store anywhere that is OFFICE DEPOT. You took a person who is sick and has lost her home and you took me over the brink.

      My neighborhood is about to conduct an Assigned Parking Space project. I had 8.5 X 11 copies of the layout of the buildings and roads. There is no way we could use such small diagrams. Office Depot Glen Burnie employee #**, ** at the Copy Center had doubts an enlargement the size I wanted would be clear enough, taken from such a small original. I told her I'd pay for one to be made, that if it did not come out clear, I'd go ahead and settle for a smaller enlargement. Well, it turned out 100% perfect. She made several adjustments in size before printing. We were both thrilled!

      Meliea took time showing me all the options she had to offer. She did not rush me and was able to expedite my order and out the door I went. The price of my finished product was way less than I was willing to pay; another PLUS regarding my effort to get the project started. I highly recommend Office Depot Glen Burnie for personalized copy service. I could not be more appreciative of the customer service and finished product I received!

      I am a 14-year Office Depot customer. At the Milwaukie Oregon location I was the only ** man in the store. I was first in line. No one ahead of me. The associate assigned to help me showed immediate frustration, then had the audacity to ask me to give up my spot, clocked out, and left me standing there alone without a single word.

      The GM made direct eye contact with me and walked into her back office and closed the door. I stood abandoned for over 15 minutes until I flagged down Cooper — the only person in that entire store cosplaying customer service. Everyone else was going through the motions with zero genuine care. I was sized up by a $0.88 transaction and dismissed. I was the only ** man in that store and I was invisible to everyone except Cooper. That felt racial and I am naming it as such. Formal complaints have been filed with BBB, Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries Civil Rights Division, and Office Depot corporate. Cooper deserves a raise. Everyone else deserves accountability.

      On January 21, 2026, I placed an online order for a CF226X toner cartridge. Upon delivery, the package contained a CF289A toner cartridge, which is not the item I purchased. I contacted customer service immediately to resolve the issue. The call was extremely challenging due to a significant language barrier, which made it difficult to communicate the problem clearly. After considerable effort, I was informed only that the matter would be “escalated” and that I would receive an email within 24–48 hours. No additional support, urgency, or practical solution was offered. I made it clear that this order is time‑sensitive. I am nearly out of toner, and without the correct cartridge, my business operations will be directly and negatively affected. Despite this, I received the same scripted response with no indication that the situation would be handled promptly.

      At this point, I require an immediate and effective resolution. I am requesting one of the following: Shipment of the correct CF226X toner cartridge, expedited at no cost, OR A full refund issued without delay. This experience has caused unnecessary disruption to my business and has raised serious concerns about the reliability of your order fulfillment and customer support processes. It has also led me to reconsider where I place my future business. I expect a prompt response and resolution.

      Office Depot is the most unprofessional company I have witnessed in a minute, I purchased a window cling on Dec 22, 2025 for my small business and they said It would arrive on Dec 28th, on the 2nd of January. I called customer service to find out where my order was and said UPS lost it!! Like really in this electronic world we lose packages? I was told I could receive a refund or they will send out another cling. I stated that for my time and all they should resend out the cling and refund my money. Customer service was extremely rude and stated that they could do 1 but not both! I will never shop Office Depot again!!

      I ordered a product that I needed ASAP and was assured that my product would arrive the next day. 2 days later, it still hasn't arrived, and it looks like it's still going to be 2 more days before it is scheduled to arrive. Why bother ordering from Office Depot when other retailers offer the same product and are more reliable?

      Ordered Photoshop/Premiere Elements on OfficeDepoot.com. They sent me a download link to the Adobe website with a form that I needed to fill out stating that I was either a student or teacher. I am neither and therefore wasn't allowed to download the software. The OfficeDeot.com product description page never mentioned that I had to be a teacher or student to be able to download the software. They took my money but I don't have a product to show for it and they won't refund my money. Be careful buying software from this fraudulent company.

      I am extremely unhappy with the customer service I received. After noticing my package had not arrived (it has been over 2 weeks), I had to take it upon myself to contact UPS to find out what was going on. During that call, I learned that UPS had already notified the sender (Office Depot OfficeMax) that the package was damaged and had closed the investigation. At no time did anyone from Office Depot OfficeMax reach out to inform me of the issue. To this day I still have yet to receive an email that they state will arrive in 24 to 48 business hours after calling 4 different times.

      As a business, it is unacceptable not to notify the customer when a shipment is damaged, delayed, or requires further action. We should have been contacted immediately to discuss the situation and how we wanted to proceed. Instead, it felt like the package and my order were simply forgotten. Not only is there still no package but there is a lack of communication on Office Max side.

      This lack of communication is highly unprofessional and shows a disregard for the customer’s time and experience. No customer should have to chase down information that the company already knows. The receiver should always be kept informed, especially when there is a problem with the order. Overall, this experience has been extremely disappointing, and I, as a customer, felt disregarded. I still have yet to receive an email on this, my order, and a refund! Unbelievable!

      Office Depot/OfficeMax is currently using AI badly. A couple weeks ago I purchased a solar battery pack online with Apple Pay. I chose to have it mailed to me. About a week later, I received a text message stating my item was ready for pick up at a store. However, no store location or address was included. Since the email address on file for me was an old work address I couldn’t log into their online system, so I had to navigate their customer care. I live on the West Coast and was unable to talk to a person after 5 o’clock when I was no longer at work. I tried talking to their AI phone tree. The AI asked me if my problem was one of a series of possibilities and I said “yes”. The AI responded that I should call callback when I knew what department I wanted to speak to and hung up on me. When I tried to interact with the chat bots, it couldn’t find my account based on all the personal information I shared with it.

      When I asked to speak to an human, it said it was reassigning me to one and then never did multiple times. I also called the store that is right next to my house. The person was very friendly, but also could not find me in the system. Ultimately, I sent a complaint email. I did not receive a reply until five days after the product arrived in the mail like it was supposed to. In summary the Office Depot/OfficeMax use of technology (instead of people) created a frustrating situation, that did not need to exist. Why did it send me a wrong text? Why can’t they find a customer record? Why does it take over a week to reply to escalated issues?

      The customer service is extremely poor. The moment you encounter an issue, you hit a wall. The team seems uninformed, gives misleading guidance, and their only proposed solution is for you to make another purchase. They don’t apologize, and they even end the call abruptly.

      This particular review is for Veyer, which is a third party that office max and Office Depot use to print their business cards. So I've given these guys two goes. The first time they confuse the glossy side with the matte side of a business card. That's not huge, but when you're dealing with a photography business and your photos are exported according to the type of paper that they're going to be printed on, that makes pretty big difference. In other words the glossy side was actually supposed to be the matte side.

      Second time around, absolute nightmare. I designed the image I already knew about the safe zones, I downloaded the proof as evidence, yet 1250 business cards showed up with white spaces at the bottom or side. Some of them were the bottom end this side. So apparently Veyer doesn't have an actual human being checking cards before they box them, and they don't take care of their printers because they're way off calibration. Sadly, there's no way to really contact office Depot higher echelon, to inform them that the third party is not doing their job correctly.

      OfficeMax, on the other hand, has done an excellent job at rectifying the situation. They're hand trimming them using a rotary trimmer. How is a bit surprised that the lady would so willingly take on the task, that I will be rewarding her with a free print of one of my photos. My rounded corners on my cards won't be perfect, but I needed them for tomorrow, so it will work.

      Reordered checks and when received the printing on the checks was faint and partially missing text on all the checks. I called customer service to get new checks reprinted since the others cannot be used but they told me the printer would email me. I received email from Veyer stating a custom order cannot be returned. The issue had nothing to do with the custom text and a return was not needed. The print quality should be legible and acceptable to banks.

      Don't even know where to start. Went on line looking for a new multi-function machine and decided on a XeroxC325. Worked once and then had nothing but issues. Reached out to Xerox and they have not been able to help. Took it back to OD and they couldn't complete the return. Got an email a short time ago telling me that because it was beyond their 14 day window they would not take it back. Not only will they not help me solve my problem they refuse to take it back. Useless unacceptable service. I will never spend another dime at Office Depot. So I spent $750 on a machine that is useless. They can take their return policy and shove it.

      I found a desk and hutch I liked at office Depot and kept thinking about it. I decided to look online for a better price which I did find. I went to their website and saw that they price match so I headed to their website store to collect my office furniture. The gentleman helping us said they do price match but only from certain companies. Of course the one I found wasn’t one they matched, however that store is only about 20 minutes away. So for a $300 savings we decided to make the trip! From a business standpoint I do not understand the limited price matching. We have visited this store several times and each time there are few if any customers there. They lost a sale today but they didn’t seem bothered by it. Guess they do a lot of company business and aren’t interested in consumer sales.

      I had a $45 digital gift card and tried to place an online order. There was a $5 and change difference. I got a confirmation email with this listed. I then got a notice that my credit card was charged the full amount. I called customer service and was assured it would come off when the gift card was applied. THEN my credit card showed 2 pending transactions, one for the $5 one for the full amount. I got a notice it was backordered so I just went ahead and cancelled it.

      My credit card pending charge disappeared but they took the gift card balance. It is now $0. I have been on several phone lines, multiple texts, multiple chats from multiple sources, transfers etc for HOURS and for multiple days. I am even getting cut off repeatedly and having to re explain this every time. They all insist my account is showing that it all went to my credit card. I honestly think they tried to charge me twice but regardless, I have gotten the biggest runaround on the planet with everyone insisting it didn't happen.

      When I call the gift card line I can pull it up on my transaction history, the transaction is $45 on that day for Office Depot (and it is an OD only gift card). I do not know why they cannot look this up. The gift card hotline just says "cannot be completed" when I ask for a human. I've tried it for three days now. As of right now, I still haven't gotten anyone to admit they did it, much less fix this issue. 🤬

      I placed an order for a printer on 8/20/25 using gift cards. Initially it said my order was shipped. Then I received an email stating the printer was on back order and the order number was modified. When I did not receive the order for weeks, I contacted customer support. There have since been numerous contacts and I am now being told my gift cards were not charged, however, of a $240 balance I now have $4.61. Any calls to the gift card department are disconnect “due to technical difficulties.” My problem has been “escalated” and the initial response time of 24-48 hours has been further extended 3-5 business days. My hope for resolution is dwindling and I am meanwhile out of a printer that I rely upon for work. I guess the bright side is that since I cannot work, I have more time to stay in the line trying to get help. DO NOT purchase gift cards for this company. If I had used my credit card, at least I could have disputed with them.
