    I am extremely disappointed with my Ann Taylor credit card experience. I paid off my credit card balance based on the amount shown on the billing website, believing my account was paid in full. I am now being charged an additional $87.00. When I spoke with a supervisor, I was told there was another button on the website related to interest. However, that button was not visible or clearly available on the billing page, and I have a screenshot to support this. As a customer, I should be able to rely on the balance displayed on the official billing website when making a payment.

    This situation is unacceptable and misleading. Although I was told my account would be zeroed out, this has already affected my credit score, which is extremely concerning. I believe this issue should be corrected immediately, including removal of the $87.00 charge and any negative credit reporting associated with this matter. Based on this experience, I would not recommend anyone do business with Ann Taylor or use their credit card services unless they improve transparency and customer protections.

    I cannot reach anyone - even chat to ask why I only received a partial refund on each item returned. They still charged the 9.95 + another 27.16 for some reason. I will never order from this company again. Ann Taylor would be appalled. They must have sold out to another country for service.

      Credit card charges for not going paperless. This is not disclosed and hidden in fine print. Refusing to pay it results in late charges which they refuse to waive. Customer service was rude and extremely unhelpful. We will NEVER buy anything from this organization again (this means all of their stores). They lost a loyal customer for a very stupid reason.

      I placed an order with Ann Taylor on January 25, 2026. Only part of the order was delivered on February 4, 2026. The remaining three items continued to show as “processing” on their website. I contacted customer service on February 6, 2026 and was told the items were in stock and that shipping would be expedited. I was given a case number but received no apology or acknowledgment of the inconvenience. When I checked again on February 10, the items were still listed as processing. That same day, I used their online chat feature and was given a second case number and told I would receive a response within 24–48 hours. I also requested an email address for follow‑up and was provided **. I emailed them on February 10 with my order number and both case numbers. As of February 13, I still had not received any response.

      I called customer support again on February 13 and requested to cancel the remaining items. I was told the cancellation would take a week and that my refund would be issued in the form of a gift card—again, with no apology, no urgency, and no meaningful resolution. I have always loved Ann Taylor’s designs, but this experience has been extremely disappointing. The lack of communication, accountability, and basic customer service has made it clear that I cannot trust their online ordering process and will not be ordering from them online again.

      I have recently gone back to the Ann Taylor Factory store in Lake George and was very pleased to be greeted by the new management and employees and made to feel very welcomed. I was able to find what I needed with the help of friendly, knowledgeable help. I will return again.

      Dishonest practices regarding refund. Returned item which was received by company, no refund returned. Was told a tracking number was needed when inquiring into lack of refund. That information was not listed on return policy. No refund ensued despite return of item.

      I’ve been a LONG time customer of Ann Taylor and spend several thousand dollars a year shopping with them for work wear. I ordered a $1000 signature collection suede coat from them on Oct 9th. Label created on Oct 14th (supposedly) and UPS never received the package from Ann Taylor. I have VVIP status with them and apparently that does not mean a thing as I waited until 10 days after the label date and have contacted them every 2-3 days since the 10th day after the shipping label was created and IF there is someone on the chat or answering the phones during business hours (there have been times in sat in a chat for over 30 mins during business hours to reach someone and no one was there), all I get told is the same thing about someone calling me back, a manager or supervisor isn’t available, etc.

      I’ve wasted enough time chasing them down in the last week that my billable time exceeds the value of the coat but it does not excuse the fact that they are sitting on $1100 of my money and if I need to start having attorneys send them letters than that is where I am at. I’ll never shop with them again after this! I do not understand what is so complicated about this. You are a retailer both brick and mortar and e-commerce. Your job is to deliver items to the customers who purchase them from you. When you frequently and continuously fail to do the most basic function of your business model, perhaps it’s time to shut it down. Legal action forthcoming…

      On August 24th at 2:15 AM PST, I placed an order for two items on sale. Immediately after checking out, I noticed that the system had defaulted to my old address in Massachusetts, even though I now live in California. Because the order was placed outside of Ann Taylor’s customer service hours (10 AM – 8 PM EST), I had no way of contacting anyone within the “60-minute window” the company requires for changes, and there was also no way to correct the address online. Later that morning, I called customer service and spent over two hours in total on the phone, speaking with two different representatives.

      • First representative: Michaela (23 minutes)

      Michaela told me that nothing could be done since more than 60 minutes had passed since I placed the order. I explained that this policy should not apply to me, as the order was placed outside business hours and I had no possible way of correcting the mistake. Her “solutions” were unhelpful: she suggested I ask someone at my old address to pick up the package (impossible), or that I change the delivery through UPS or USPS. She wasn’t even sure which carrier was being used—first saying UPS, then changing to USPS—demonstrating a lack of clarity.

      When I questioned how I could change the address myself if Ann Taylor had already specified the shipping information, she couldn’t answer. Eventually, after speaking with her manager, she told me I would just have to wait for the items to be delivered to the wrong address and then request a refund. This made no sense. To make matters worse, she said my “item” would be refunded, only to realize after I corrected her that I had more than one item in the order. I asked multiple times to speak with a supervisor, but every request was ignored. The call was eventually disconnected.

      • Second representative: James (1 hour 8 minutes)

      I called again and explained the situation. James acknowledged the previous notes but once again repeated the same script: I should have changed the address within 60 minutes. I explained, again, why this was impossible in my case. I asked to speak with a supervisor several times, but my requests were ignored. James would repeatedly place me on hold and return saying he couldn’t reach a supervisor. After more than an hour, he finally said a supervisor would call me back. I refused to hang up until I could be connected directly, but I was placed on hold indefinitely, and no one ever picked up. Unsurprisingly, no supervisor ever called me back.

      At the end of all this, the order still shipped to my old address. Despite multiple good-faith attempts to resolve the issue before the order was processed, I was left with no real support, no escalation, and no accountability. The entire experience was unacceptable. Customer service staff repeated rigid policies without considering the actual situation, gave me contradictory and impractical instructions, ignored my repeated requests to escalate to a supervisor, and ultimately wasted hours of my time. As a long-time customer, I expected far better from Ann Taylor. Instead, I was met with indifference, misinformation, and a complete lack of customer care.

      Took weeks for the order to ship, arrived damaged with missing buttons. Shipped back, they received the package on 8/14, 11 days later and no refund...had to call and wait on hold to have them process the refund. Poor customer service, poor quality, will not shop with them again. What a shame, they used to be reputable, and now they are shockingly bad.
