      I ordered a gift on December 18th. It was supposed to be delivered between December 21st-23rd. On the 19th I received notice that it had been shipped. When I tracked it using the ***** # provided, it indicated it was scheduled to be delivered on the 26th. This was a Christmas gift that was supposed to arrive before Christmas! I would not have made the purchase if I knew they were not being truthful about the delivery date. I tried contacting the company using their chat features which did not work. I sent an email and did not receive a response. I contacted the company on ******** and received responses that said the ***** was not accurate and it would be delivered by the 23rd. It was not delivered by that date Their customer service is terrible and unhelpful. Told me to call the person I sent the gift to to see if they got it when the tracking # clearly states it has not been delivered. Then told me to contact *****. Told me it was out of their hands.

      I ordered cookies on 12/2/2024 to be delivered on 12/21-12/23/24. I checked my order several times in which it said my order was confirmed. On the day of delivery, I called because the order still did not show shipped. I was told my product was not available. I never received any email stating it was not available or for other options. **************** was terrible and he told me he was only allowed to offer me what was on his script. Would not transfer me and was hard to understand. I asked for a refund after he offered to late delivery a totally different product. I have still not received an email to confirm my refund and no credit card credit yet. Worst experience ever and now my Christmas gift was not delivered.

      On December 17th, I placed an order with Cheryl's Cookies for cookies for an event on December 24th. I read the shipping timelines closely, and the website guaranteed a delivery date by December 23rd. After they had shipped, the tracking updated to December 26th. The Order Confirmation page on Cheryl's website still said they would arrive by December 23rd. I certainly understand the reality of shipping delays, especially around the holidays. However, I never would have placed the order with Cheryl's had they not guaranteed the delivery date at the time of purchase. I believe the shipping timeframe was intentionally dishonest.

      Ordered cookies on 12/17/24. When I received my confirmation it contained the wrong shipping address. I immediately sent emails and phoned customer service to rectify this issue. After talking to several representatives they were unwilling to help me change the address or refund my money. Now the cookies are somewhere in *******. They were supposed to go to ********. I had to reorder anothher box so it would arrive by Christmas. My original order of cookies was no longer available. I therefore ordered another box which would not have been my first choice. I hope the new box goes where it is supposed to be shipped. I want my money back for the first box of cookies that were never delivered. I would not be filing this complaint if Cheryl's customer service had been willing to help me. First and last time I will ever order their cookies again.

      I am writing to express my ongoing frustration regarding my order W01005923640958, (72 holiday cutout cookies) which was placed on 12/7 and was supposed to arrive by 12/10-12/11. Unfortunately, it is now 12/19 and the order has been lost in transit and has not been delivered, and my efforts to resolve this issue have been unsuccessful.I have spoken with several representatives, two of whom assured me that a replacement order would be sent out (see attachment of emails.) However, when I followed up with additional inquiries, I was told by others that the original order is set to be delivered the next day, which it never is. This conflicting information has left me confused and dissatisfied.Additionally, each time I respond to an email, I receive a reply from a different representative who seems to have no knowledge of the prior conversations. The lack of continuity and attention to the previous emails has caused significant delays and confusion in resolving this matter.This order was intended for an event that has already passed, and I am now requesting an either a prompt replacement order or a full refund. I believe this is a reasonable expectation, given the circumstances.I trust you understand the importance of resolving this issue quickly, and I would appreciate your urgent attention to it.Thank you for your time, and I look forward to a prompt and satisfactory resolution.Sincerely,***** ***********

      The worst customer service ever. I ordered a set of *********************. ********************* were flat and hard and not the normal standard. It was definitely a bad batch. **************** *** offered me a $10 coupon toward a future order. That covers 3 cookies and not the shipping. Their live chat was the worse experience. It took 4 ***resentatives and still not resolved. Their website says products guaranteed but I guess not?

We have also issued a $15 Savings Pass which will be emailed to you in approximately 5 days, this can be used on any future orders with us or any of our family of brands at the top of our website. 

      Again, we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and hope to better assist you in the future.

      On 10/27/2024, I placed an on-line order at Cheryl's Cookies. You have the option to choose your delivery date, so I choose 12/12/2024-12/13/2024 for my delivery date. A day prior to 12/12, I contacted Cheryl's chat to get the tracking for the order. I was informed there was NO tracking available, but I was ASSURED that the order would arrive to me by 12/13/2024. On 12/12/2024, the tracking was now available, with a delivery date of 12/14/2024. This date is too late for the event that I needed the order for. I contacted chat again and was brushed off. The ***resentative stated that my delivery date was ONLY one day off. If Cheryl's is not going to honor a customer's choice of a delivery date, then this should not be an option in the check out process. I requested a refund, but the *** kept trying to get me to accept a reship of the same order; which defeats the purpose because I would still not get the order by 12/13 pm time. I would like Cheryl's to refund my $60.58; which was on a gift card ending in #****. I am now having to run around and find a ***lacement for this late arrival order!

      Dear ******, 


      Thank you for reaching out to us. We are very sorry that your order may arrive tomorrow after the time when it is needed.  

      Upon investigating it does look like the package was scanned yesterday by ***** approximately 2 hours from it's destination. Very sorry that there have been no updates from *****, which we have asked them to look into. We do have hope that this package will still arrive today and we will keep an eye on it. 

      We do also see that a full refund was processed on this order as of 12/12/24. A new Savings Pass, which acts as a gift card, with the full amount will be emailed to you in approximately 5 days. If you do not get that email, please reach out to us and reference the order number, that card information will be located on the order.

      Again, we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and hope to better assist you in the future.

      I am rejecting this response because:  To date, I have still not received any kind of refund or gift card in the amount of  $60.58.  I havent received any email and there is nothing listed in my Cheryl's account.  I have no idea where the refund or credit is, but this is VERY unacceptable!

      I ordered cookies as finals care packages for my two college daughters. Selected a delivery date and was told they would arrive between Dec. 7-9. Now, the estimated delivery is December 13, which is when my daughter will not even be at college at all any more (she leaves Dec. 12). I reached out to ****** and get a refund. Was told I could only get a $15 credit toward a future purchase. I paid for cookies that I was promised would be delivered within a certain window, but it won't make it there at all in time. So now I have paid for a meaningless delivery that my daughter will not even receive.

      Thank you for reaching out to us. I am very sorry that your order was not delivered on your intended delivery date and for the poor customer service you have received. This is not the experience we want you to have and we want to do everything we can to make this right. 

      As requested, I have issued a full refund for the order that had a delayed delivery date of 12/13/24. Your refund is being processed and will be applied to your original form of payment. Please allow up to 10 business days to post to your financial institution. 

      In regards to the second order, I have confirmed that we received a confirmation of delivery from ***** on 12/10/24; however, as this would still be past the intended delivery date we ask that you please reach out to us if your recipient did not receive this order and we will be happy to assist you.
