Horrible company with customer service… Horrible company with customer service reps that don't know how to do anything but lie. I ordered over $100 in flies for a trip and over a week later only 1 fly has shipped out of 36. First they say 15% off your first order, then when you check out you don't get 15% off anything except select items. They charge your credit card for each individual item ordered instead of one charge likely to get around higher criminal penalties for fraud/scamming customers. They just need to close down since they are no longer brand that wants to sell items.

I used to be a big Orvis customer. No longer. For years I was a big Orvis customer. I have a closet full of Orvis jackets, shirts, pants. Their prices were higher but the quality was there, I thought. But lately Orvis has deteriorated. I ordered a pair of jeans six weeks ago. They still have not arrived. I ordered some sweatpants a month ago. Still waiting. No ability to track the shipment, and no one to talk to. I am finished with Orvis. I guess they went "woke" instead of focusing on customer service.

Unreasonable return charges Ordered a belt and the Orvis was smaller than various other brand 40" belts I have. I reordered a 42" which was fine, but my refund deducted my original shipping cost and charged return shipping charges. A nearly $20 deduction in my refund total I received today. Given other retailer free shipping and free return policies I won't be ordering from Orvis again.

I have used Orvis products for years I have used Orvis products for years - but no more. The quality has fallen far below acceptable. A pair of waders that leak this year and then I tried the Hydros Cold Water Intermediate and the loop at the end of the line separated on my second day out. Very poor quality. Additionally, the shipping is awful. $9.95 for a small box - a fly line. One order took 11 days and the next good 12 days. Orvis has lost it.

Returns Portal Down? Really? My sister gave me a pair of gloves for Christmas I wanted to exchange for a different size. I go on their website and type the return number in, only to get no match. So I email customer service with my issue. No answer. Then a week later. No answer. Four times I try over several weeks, then finally forward all the emails from another email address. I'm told sorry, they checked and they never saw my emails, but somehow they did today from an AOL address. They send me a return email label. Great, maybe they didn't see it for whatever reason. In the interim, I order a shirt, but it does not fit. So I go to return, and the same thing, order not recognized. I respond to the email I received earlier today with the return label indicating again my order number is not showing a match, and the message I get back starts with this: "I am so sorry but our returns portal is down at the moment undergoing some maintenance. This is why it did not work on your end." Is it really down "at the moment," or has it been down for a while, like since I've been trying to return the gloves for the past month? And if it's truly down, then why not just post that information on the returns page, rather than have every customer with a return get an "order not found" result when attempting a return? I expect that post-December is the highest volume return period of the year. Is the "returns portal" down coincidental, or is it to get customers to just give up? Sadly, I must assume the latter based on recent reviews on this site. If it's not intentional, then why not be upfront with customers and say you're having issues with returns? Why make the customer think he/she is the one somehow not entering something right or messing up? I don't know the answer, all I know is Orvis is not thinking about their customers first. And that is the downfall of any business...
