GBWon't get zapped again It's been a couple of years, maybe since I've ordered from Zappos. Wow! What a difference. Unfortunately for Zappos and the customers they try to purchase from Zappos. I have not yet spoke to a live person and I've been on the hold five times for a total of an hour and a half. I guess customer service management is not read the reviews, or reach out? You know the fantastic thing about hitting your head against the wall when you stop. It doesn't hurt anymore. Zappos is the concrete wall. Thank you Birkenstock you have customer service.

GBTerrible Customer Service Received message saying there was problem with my PayPal payment. Tried to contact them by online chat to find out what the problem was since it was hard to see how something went wrong with PayPal. Due to an apparent language barrier, they could not or would not answer any of my directly asked questions and were actually kind of rude. If they get your order right, you may not have any problems, but if they get something wrong, you are in trouble.

GBAgree Zappos Is Not the Same It used to be that Zappos offered overnight shipping. The last time I ordered, they could not manage this. Customer service was quite poor on a phone call at the holiday season. I needed a new QR code so I could drop the shoes off at a Whole Foods store. The one I'd received by email wasn't readable. The person helping me on the phone had no idea how to communicate. When I went to Whole Foods to drop the return with the QR code I was sent, I was informed it was a code for a return at a UPS store. At UPS, I was unable to make the return without a shipping box. I was in a hurry and had to pay them to do it. What a pain in the neck.

GBFast delivery and easy returns I've been a long-time Zappos customer and have always been happy with their service. Returns have been easy. And since Zappos became associated with Amazon I receive priority shipment speed that's usually 2 business days. Their selection is expansive and they maintain a sufficient inventory to ensure that my style and shoe size is available. The negative reviews on Trustpilot are completely at odds with my experience. As a long time customer I've never once experienced a problem with Zappos. They've been great and I wouldn't think of getting my shoes elsewhere.

GBDo not buy hats from Zappos! I have received 2 Melin hats in the past week that were squished flat in individual paper mailing envelopes. As a result the front panels were creased and unwearable. After the first hat was received in a similar fashion, the customer service rep confirmed the replacement hat would shipped in a box. Obviously that did not happen. Not going take the risk and try a third time. Will make my purchase elsewhere.
