Customer service is poor

Reviewed on 2021-04-16T21:33:57

Customer service is poor. I ordered a Bible on Monday of this week. It sat for three days in a FedEx distribution center in the town where CBD is located.I contacted CBD several times over this issue via e-mail and never received a response. I have found this to be typical from having problems with other orders in the past. They do not work on behalf of the people who keep them in business. I found out today that I could have purchased the same Bible from Walmart.com for three dollars less than what I paid for the same edition at CBD--and I could have had it shipped to me for free with guaranteed delivery in two business days. And the Customer Service Reps at Walmart.com treat every customer complaint with the respect it is due. I won't be doing business with CBD ever again.

Recurrent shipping delays and excuses.

Reviewed on 2021-04-11T13:09:24

Package indicates shipped on April 6th. 5 days later and two customer service reps,package still hasn’t left CBD warehouse. Told it doesn’t matter...that FedEx isn’t updating their tracking info regularly DUE TO COVID of course! If I don’t receive my item by the 20th, call back so we can look into it...SO FRUSTRATING! I paid for FAST shipping, I want my shipping refunded.

Charged for an order I canceled

Reviewed on 2021-03-30T19:45:43

I had canceled an order because it was on backorder (twice) and I found it elsewhere.My account showed that it was canceled, yet they sent the books to me anyway. I immediately contacted them and told them that the package had been damaged and that I had canceled the order, did not want it, and asked what to do. They never responded. About a month later, I received a charge on my credit card. I contacted them and was told that it was for the books they had sent. I told them that I had canceled the order. They said for me to get a refund, I had to return the books AT MY EXPENSE!! I requested a refund for the return shipping as well as the books. They didn't even give me a full refund for the books. They have never responded to any of my emails. I expect more of a business that calls themselves "Christian"

SmartPost is the worst!!!

Reviewed on 2021-03-18T12:20:37

SmartPost is the worst service for shipping...period! If they are going to charge for shipping should use something better.Will never order from them again. Nine days for something that would have arrived in 3 using first class USPS.

Poor Customer Service; Won’t Honor Prices For Their Mistakes

Reviewed on 2021-03-09T00:30:54

I have shopped with Christianbook several times in the past including one with a hiccup that was fixed.This past order through has made it my last. I ordered Bibles for my shop on Jan 14th this year. A week or so later they arrived but were the wrong Bibles. I contacted Customer service and they sent a refund label and a new shipment of Bibles. Again, they were the wrong ones. I called customer service this time to straighten things around and was told the right ones would be shipped right away and that the SKU labels were wrong in warehouse. A week later I got an email that they looked into the mixup and saw that the pictures on the listing were for the wrong cover of Bibles and said it was their mistake, but they would not be sending the Bibles I thought I was getting on the listing and told me if I wanted the correct ones I would need to pay more. I declined as I had already spent my budget for Bibles and could not spend more. I sent back the boxes of incorrect Bibles for a refund. A few weeks passed and I emailed as my tracking showed the Bibles had been returned and I still didn’t have the return to my bank account. I was told if I provided tracking numbers they would refund the money right away. I sent tracking numbers and was then told they could not process the return until the Bibles had been processed and that it could take 2+ weeks to even get to them. So here we are, nearly 2 months later and the return still has not hit my bank account. Normally I let these things slide because I know how hectic things can get but I was told one thing and then another and the issues with the Bibles wasn’t even my fault.

Refuses To File Lost Claim With FedEx

Reviewed on 2020-11-19T15:55:39

According to FedEx's website, the package I ordered was supposed to be out for delivery today,but there hasn't been any movement on it since 11/17 when it arrived in WV. The FedEx rep said I'd have to contact Christianbooks.com to get them to initiate filing a lost claim because they don't allow the customers to do it. Called Christianbooks.com and was told that they won't file a lost claim until after 11/25 because it could still be delivered by 11/25 even though FedEx themselves say it's lost and they have no idea where it is. I have to wait an additional week before filing a claim, which is ridiculous! I will NEVER order from Christianbooks.com again and definitely DO NOT recommend anyone else order from them.
