GBWhat should have been a simple order I ordered a replacement Chromecast remote on Mar. 15. It never came. I checked the provided tracking number and it shows “Awaiting Carrier Pickup” on Google’s side and the number doesn’t exist on the UPS side. Google refuses to acknowledge that the remote never shipped and refuses to ship another one. They won’t let me speak to a supervisor. They want me to consent to providing ALL of my Google account history to investigate the issue. I told them no. They won’t refund my money. So, I disputed the charge with my credit card company. Really, what the heck Google!?! UPDATE: Apr. 11 Never heard from a supervisor. Google Store still shows "Pending Carrier Pickup" and has failed on all aspects. The quit emailing their canned response when I stated that they should all be fired for being inept at customer service. Credit card refunded money and is waiting on Google Store's response. Even if Google responds, my credit card has assured me that I will win this case.

GBNest Thermostat VERY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!! not even in this country!!!! don't buy from these people... if I had bought it on Amazon I would have had it a day or two after I ordered it!!! if it had gone missing they would have replaced it or refunded immediately... this has been over 10days with Google store!!!! Fedex was the problem they said.... NEVER AGAIN!!!!

GBPurchased a Google Nest thermostat and… Purchased a Google Nest thermostat and took the option for installation as well. Unfortunately, Google / FedEx botched the shipment and now I have to deal with 3 parties. Google won't talk to me until I speak with FedEx (who of course waste time and only when pressed admit they can't find the package). So, 30 minutes there, then reschedule the appointment for the installation, presuming Google would overnight the item. Then, on with Google....only chat available.....and they won't expedite at all....their scripts only use vague terms and won't commit to anything. When you attempt to escalate, you will only receive, they'll contact you in 24-48 hours....by email. Truly better to buy elsewhere.

GBSimply terrible Simply terrible. Bordering on illegal. They simply do not offer customer service if there is a problem. They have no published complaints process and after a while the conversation simply peters out and they just ignore you. I have no resolution to issue with my Google Nest Mini Display. Scripted responses that when you read between the lines you could infer they are telling you they won't contact you again. They are certainly non-commital. Disgusted and not quite sure how they're getting away with it to be honest.

GBOrdering through the Google Store… Ordering through the Google Store presented some challenges. In preparation to purchase our Pixel 8 phones, my husband and I were informed that the items were in stock and available for in-store pick up upon online payment. To avoid any potential shipping issues, we planned to personally pick up the phones, even though it meant a four-hour drive plus associated costs. When we inquired about the availability of colors at the Brooklyn, NY store, we encountered difficulty due to the lack of a contact number and unhelpful customer service. Ultimately, we decided to ship the phones instead. Despite some delays in the shipping process, my husband's phone eventually shipped but mine continued to be postponed. This led to my decision to cancel the order and make the purchase through Amazon.
