365 returns is a lie! I returned a shirt and received a delivery confirmation that it was delivered on March 30th. I have contacted them several times about my refund which I have never received. No response. DONT EVER ORDER FROM FANATICS.COM!
Soo disappointing
Soo disappointing. I will never shop here again. I thought since it was supposedly "official" I would get much better service. First jersey; too big. So, I decided to return and get a smaller size. 100 days to return-ok, great! I returned it immediately. A $10 charge for a return label? (guess I'm used to amazon policy). Reordered, get an email (posted Wed., 10/14 at 3:34am) saying "delivered, Tues. Oct 13". Odd. I didn't get any package. Checked site, it said delivered Wed., Oct. 14. Still odd. I checked mailbox, front door-nothing. Called Fanatics- FedEx picked it up and then delivered it to the USPS—I still have to wait another 9 days for delivery! The first time I ordered it took 10 days total. Now it's 14? I have already had HORRIBLE delivery experience with Fedex AND the USPS recently, (packages lost arriving weeks later, package delivered to house across the street), so I was not really thrilled about the fact that those 2 entities were handling the package. Never again.
Good Morning, Vickie. We are truly sorry for your experience. We would like to look into this further for you. Please send us message for further assistance. Thank you, Maribell.
Maybe I should have read the reviews before purchasing from here. Most of the poor reviews I've read are about their failure to deliver around the holidays. Well here's another one for you. I made the purchase on 12/16 and was guaranteed delivery by 12/22. Now it is 12/23, Christmas Eve is tomorrow, and there is a very good chance I will not have my wife's gift. I'm giving them 2 stars (instead of 1) because I'm assuming that the quality of the product I purchased will be good, the price was very good, and there is still a chance that it will arrive tomorrow. But when I chatted with their customer service online, they basically told me there was nothing they could do -- even though they currently have a banner on the web site that says "Guaranteed delivery by Christmas Eve for orders over $100". My guess is that they don't stock their own products. But clearly they need to do a better job of fulfillment, especially around the holidays.
+++++++++
Update: My order miraculously shipped today, so it should arrive by tomorrow (Christmas Eve). I'm upgrading my overall rating and my Shipping rating by one star. I don't think this would have happened if I hadn't pressed them on two separate occasions to ship my order.
HOLY COW. NEVER EVER BUY FROM THIS SHAM OF A COMPANY. I'M WARNING YOU NOW. THEY JUST CANCELLED MY ORDER AFTER I paid IT. THE REASON IS FOR "SECURITY REASONS" WHAT THE HELL IS THAT. I'M BUYING SWEATSHIRTS FOR HEAVENS SAKES. I CALLED AND ASKED THEM TO EXPLAIN AND THEY SAID, FOR SECURITY REASONS THEY CAN'T. THEY SENT ME THE EMAIL TO BUY FROM THEM.
We certainly apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this has caused. We have reviewed your order and emailed you with more information. Thank you, Edmond.
I cannot believe I ordered off of NFL.com and it goes through those idiots in Jacksonville, FL - Fanatics! They are the worst! I live in Jax, wish I could support them but all 3 times I ordered from them my orders did not arrive for over 3 weeks and I wound-up cancelling - including today after waiting 25 days! DO NOT USE THEM FOR GIFTS! YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE A GIFT TO GIVE! Why can't I review them on Google like most any other company? How much do they pay to not have Google reviews? Why can't they put that money into customer service?
Hello Allen, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about the delay of your order. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. The item purchased was a special event item which should've been shipped on 10/11/2019. Unfortunately, due to high demand for the item, the vendor was unable to meet those deadlines. They revised the date of delivery until 10/30/2019. Per your request, the order was cancel and refunded back to the method of payment used to make this purchase. Please allow two to seven business days to reflect on your financial statement. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Do NOT buy from this horrible company. HORRENDOUS customer service. I ordered over $300 worth of items that were promised on 12/18/2019.
I was on the phone for HOURS. The rep said the shipping couldn't find my package and is considering it lost. She then "hung up" on me.
Now I have no Christmas gifts and am totally annoyed. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE.
Hello Donna, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the carrier was unable to locate your address. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, the package was shipped out on 12/18/2019 and was delivered on 12/24/2019. Because the package was not received by the next day, you were fully refunded back to the method of payment used to make this purchase. In addition, a discount code was issued to you to use on your next purchase. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
I attempted my first order on the pac-12 website. After selecting my items i went through the checkout screen and made payment. I immediately checked my online banking to make sure the payment went through ( the payment was deducted) and everything seemed fine. Roughly one hour went by and i got an email from their website confirming my order with a link to track my order. When i clicked on the link to track my order it stated it had been canceled and to contact their customer service.
I tried calling them, live chat and sending them a msg via instagram but had zero luck. I then placed a second order ( i know dumb on my part) thinking maybe it was a glitch and the same above happened. They deducted my account and sent me an email with a tracking number, this time when I clicked on the tracking link it said my order didn't exist.
So went from my order being cancelled then to my order doesn't exist, how does that even happen?
I tried again calling them over and over but had zero luck getting anyone on the phone, so now I'm here hoping to get someone to assist me. I have two deductions from this company, they had zero problems taking my money but don't have the decency to hire enough customer service staff? What type of establishment is this?
Please change my mind, I'll be glad to give an update here and change my score for your company if someone offers proper customer service.
I've added screenshots for Proof of order

I purchased a jose Fernandez autograph A day before his tragic accident everything went through they took my money so I get an email three days later saying due to his passing they couldn't fulfill the order but yet I see they have plenty of other autographs for three times the amount that I've made the purchase (shady $#*! bastards)

We would like the chance to look at this further and completely resolve this for you. Again, we apologize and hope to hear from you soon. Thanks, Chastity
Bout a coffee mug and it was completely demolished when I received it I reached out to them and they said there's nothing they can do. Awesome now I know I'll never go with them again.
Order was wrong they told me they was going to wave the return fee and send me a label. Got email but no label. So disappointed. Will never recommend. Shoe supposed to be 9-10 got 5-6
Hello Madonna, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that you didn't received the return label email. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, the contact was disconnect prior to the Advocate being able to complete the action. However, the return fee has been waived. I have just emailed you the label to use to return the item. Please print out the label and attach it to the package. The package can be return at any local post office or FedEx Store. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Even though my problem could not be resolved due to technical issues, your representative Dee Tave was professional, efficient and caring in my situation. She should be cloned!
Hello Jennifer, We apologize that you had bad experience but very grateful we could turn that experience to a better solution. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Julian
I had a very positive experience with Fanatics. The merchandise was ordered on December 4th and arrived on December 8th. Exactly as described, super quick ship. No problems!
Keshawndra was incredible going above and beyond to address my jersey order situation.
I am just overwhelmed with how great the customer service was
5 out of 5!
Hello Nicholas, We are so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Julian
If I could give this company less than one stars I would. I placed an order last Saturday and paid extra for three day shipping because I needed the item on Friday. I called customer service on Tuesday and the man on the phone said I needed to allow a 48 hour processing period before it would ship. That's totally reasonable even though they should probably state that online. He told me specifically that I will receive my item by Friday which is great. I called the next day because it hasn't shipped and the rude lady on the phone told me it wouldn't ship until MONDAY. Are you kidding me? I pay extra for 3 day shipping but it won't actually ship until 10 days after I order. That is completely unreasonable and the woman kept repeating the same thing after I tried to explain why the policy is dumb and I had received other information. I cancelled my order because I don't think anyone should support this company. After I emailed them the situation, they sent me an automated response telling me how to track my order. The worst customer service I have ever experienced.
Hello Mary. Thanks for your feedback. We apologize that you cancelled your order. Unfortunately, the item you ordered, Women's Red Montreal Canadiens Ugly Holiday Slim Fit Long Sleeve T-Shirt, states on the website that it ships within 5 business days. That is aside from the shipping method you chose on the order. I also apologize for the incorrect and inconsistant information you were given about the shipping of your order. We have given you some store credit in hopes that you will try us again. We will send you an email with your account information shortly. Sincerely, Karmen
They created a label 2 weeks after my order was placed but never shipped the 2 shirts. I was told I would be over nighted the shirts for free, but never got a shipping notification. Today, 2 days later, I received a shipping notification for one of two shirts and it is going Fedex Smartpost for deliver in 7 days! The online chat lady "Tia" said "I am sorry. It was shipped 2nd day air" which was clearly a lie because I tracked it 5 minutes before that. They did not offer any refund, discount, or any restitution AT ALL. They absolutely do not care about the customer. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME.
Hello Chris B, we are terribly sorry for the inconvenience. We have passed your experience along to the appropriate department and it is being looked into. We truly apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. Feel free to reach out to us if we can help you further in anyway. Please accept our most sincere apologies. Thank you, Darren M.
The fact that they over-all have a terrible review shows you how their customer service is And what they will do for you. Aka NOTHING.
I think its ridiculous that they dont have an exchange policy. I mean, it is what it is BUT at least have me buy the item back for the same price I got it for.
Called customer service and I was explaining the guy that they need to be clear about their ridiculous rules like NO EXCHANGES. He explained to me that all that information is under the help button which DUH of course, but it doesnt matter. When youre dealing with retail esp that a company is known to sell CLOTHES, customers assume that youre able to exchange sizes and what not. They really need to make it clear when youre about to buy the item that they dont do exchanges. Im not happy that they just assume that you know and everybody reads their rules under the help button.
Never buying from this company again..
Hello Jennifer, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry about the return policy. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, our warehouse will not do exchanges due to inventory purposes. For the sole point of keeping an accurate count of availability of items in stocked. With any site, ours will always try to explain our procedures and process to return the items and provide information needed to our customer. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
I would not ever use this site if you plan on possibly having to return anything and or need something quick. In the first case, I had to return something. I mailed it back and over a month later had to reach out to them and say something about my return in order for it to even be processed into the system. The next day I got an email telling me it was processed and I would be receiving a refund in 2-10 days. It's been 20 days... still nothing. Then just this week I ordered an item that I needed specially for this weekend. I spoke with two separate people on the phone who both ensured me if I ordered these items that day (Monday) and paid for next day shipping that my items were guaranteed to be here by Friday. Items shipped Wednesday, should have arrived Thursday, checked the tracking number only to find out my items will not arrive until next Wednesday. When I called and spoke with two separate people they both tried to blame the shipping company and basically told me that there was nothing they could do and that I was out of luck. Some reliability. If you need items and you need to be sure you will get them when you need them and pay for them to arrive, this is not the site to ever order from.
Hello Brittany, thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry to have caused you this poor experience! Please reach out to us via private message and provide your full name, e-mail address and order number and we would be happy to work with you to try and make this right. We hope to hear from you soon! Sincerely, Sarah B.
After leaving my last review, I was contacted by Chastity who was Able to completely remedy my situation, Although i won't get my product by Christmas, I will still get the things that i ordered, For that I am super thankful and Impressed by Fanitcs' ability to Right a wrong, That even they may not be responsible for. I can Respect that, and re-write my review to 5 stars to reflect the understanding, and kindness i was shown today.
Thank you guys!
Hello Kory, we are so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Julian
There was a problem with the shipping company. They stepped in, took care of it, and reshipped the items that were needed very quickly.
Fanatics Can Be Helpful When they Need to be.
I am thankful, But cautious when buying during a busy time-
Thank you to the Fanatics Team for turning around my first experience with them, into one that I now Feel much better about-
Don't be afraid to purchase from Fanatics.com, Just keep your eye on the Shippers!
Specifically ordered from Fanatics on 5/22/17 to get an order within 3 days(5/26/17. Spent an extra $5 to get their free 3 day shipping if spent over $30. ON 5/26/17, the day that they Guaranteed delivery, I got on to chat with someone there about how my item wasn't going to be here in time and got a completely rude agent who just argued that I was wrong. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! Will be returning my item and never shopping with them again.
Connor, we are terribly sorry to hear about your less than satisfactory experience with Fanatics. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate an order using the order number you provided. It does not match our standard format. We would love to look into this for you and ask that you please reach out via private message and provide your full name, e-mail address and any alternative order number you might have so that we can look into this for you. Thank you and we hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely, Cayla
I purchased $400 of fan gear (Seattle Kraken) for my family (5 items) so we could attend the game all decked out. The order was placed on Dec 6 and the first shirt arrived on Dec 10. Thinking the rest would come shortly (the game was on Dec 18) I waited and waited... and then went to the game shirtless. Of course, I checked the status of the order several times a day and all I could see was that it had been shipped but not delivered. Two weeks later, the status remains the same - shipped, not delivered.
The Fanatics support pages were worthless. Their online chatbot could provide no information. A customer support phone number was non-existent until I found a very cool website - https://fanatics.pissedconsumer.com/ - that had the number. I emailed customer support several times - no reply. I just called using the "pissed consumer" phone number and was told that all the missing items were "out of stock". No email telling me they were out of stock, just a notice that they were "shipped". How do you ship an out-of-stock item?
Long story short, do not buy from Fanatics. They have zero customer support and appear to operate a fraudulent business. Shame on them. Why I didn't use Amazon Prime remains the lingering question.
Answer: I have no experience ordering from Australia so I'm afraid I will be of no help. I do agree that the holiday will add a little extra time but I don't believe it's as bad as everyone is saying. I don't know why I had such a good experience with them when it sounds like everyone else is angry with them. I'm curious to see how it goes for you.
Answer: Good luck. I just kept getting stupid answers until I filed a BBB complaint. Then I got instant satisfaction.
Answer: Hello Timo, Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your business! Mike, Shannon, and Brad -- We would love to have an opportunity to work with you each regarding your less-than stellar experiences. Please provide your order numbers so that we may research and work on resolving your poor experiences! We value each of you and hope you will give us an opportunity to make this right.
Answer: No kidding. These fools are liars and thieves. They literally have fulltime dedicated employees who monitor sites like SiteJabber to provide responses to all the well deserved, nasty Fanatics reviews. It is entirely likely that any and all positive reviews touting their customer service are internally generated by their own employees. Write letters to your licensing body whether it be NFL or MLB and let them know about Fanatics and their FRAUDULENT and DECEPTIVE business practices. Fanatics should be glossed as Fraudnatics. BUYER BEWARE!
Answer: Hello, Thank you for reaching out to us. When an item is found to be out of stock the money is refunded back to the original form of payment. In addition, we issue a store credit on top of this for the inconvenience.
Answer: I would not worry to much about the negative feedback. You should get your items delivered to you with no problem. It might take a little time to be delivered but I had no problems with fanatics.
Answer: Please provide us with the contact information we can best reach you with so that we can pass this along. Julia.
Answer: Thank you for your correspondence. I am very sorry that you had this issue with the item. If you could please private message me your order number so I can take a further look?
Answer: Hello, thank you for reaching out. Upon reviewing your orders should arrive no later than December 13,2017.
Answer: Thank you for reaching out Michael. Refunds can take 2-7 business days for the refund to reflect back on the form of payment that was used at checkout. Thanks, Cayla
