Gift cards
I was given gift cards for Barnes and Noble which I tried to use online only to discover that online purchase is limited to "NOOKbooks" this was annoying since this information is not shared at the time of purchase. I live 50 miles from the closest Barnes and Noble, do not have a drivers license and my husband is a long haul truck driver, the entire purpose for the gift cards was the ability to purchase BOOKS online and have them delivered to my house. I personally think this is a marketing strategy to force consumers to buy gadgets required for reading ebooks. Amazon is rapidly becoming my best friend!

Online fufillment is horrible
BN online fulfillment and customer service divisions are terrible. I ordered an item to a 35 story skyscraper in Manhattan, emailed to verify the package was on its way and was told their courier could not find the building! Then, once I confirmed that I had given them the right address, BN customer support decided to tell me that they had canceled my order and I could order another item if I wanted to. When I called customer service I had to wait for ONE HOUR to speak to someone who had to put me on hold.

Last time I shop at BN.com!

Rude Employee dropping F-bomb
At the Danbury, CT Barnes and Noble there is one employee who is always walking around angrily. He mutters that customers are jerks and constantly uses foul language including the F-bomb.

This employee is constantly slamming the books and magazines into the shelves and if you ask him to help you find a book, it better not be a book against his political/religious beliefs, or he will just continue to mutter for minutes about how people are going to ***.

It's ridiculous how this man hasn't lost his job yet. Nearly the entire staff at this store are grumpy and not so helpful, but this particular individual is the worst. I never was able to see his name tag, but as far as I know, he is the only male working there with a beard and mustache!

False advertising, slow shipment
On the Barnes and Noble website it stated that if you ordered a Nook before 4PM on June 16th, you would receive it before Father's Day. I ordered it at 10 AM on June 16th and it will not be here until Monday (after Father's Day). I emailed customer service when I noticed the UPS tracking info stating a Monday delivery. They were NOT helpful. They did not seem to care that this was false advertising. By reading other posts on this site, this seems to be a common problem. I wonder how many hundreds of other people expected to have a Nook delivered for Father's Day and did not get it. I don't understand how a large company like this can continue to exist with such poor customer service and such out-right lying. They got their money -- I still am nook-less.

I am considering returning the Nook when I do get it and buying a different e-reader. I can't continue to support a company that treats customers with so much disrespect.

Poor Customer Service
Particular employee always shows poor service. Drops the F-bomb constantly and slams the books and magazines when putting them on shelves. When asked for books relating to differing political views/religious beliefs, mutters about customers going to hell, etc.

Damaged product exchange
I tried to exchange a damaged presentation book bought recently from Barnes and Noble. The "manager" who was She was extremely rude and smug refused to exchange it. She said I needed to have the receipt but I explained to her that it was a gift from a family member from out of state and didn't have a receipt. I tried to purchase a new one and she said she would put a note not to be able to return it because she said I would just return the old one. She accused me without letting me even explain my situation. It's a presentation book that lacks the key function of it..."THE PRESENTATION". I even have their membership card...what a waste of money. I wish Barnes and Noble would train their employees on how to solve a customer's issue. What a terrible place.

Defective Product
We bought a NOOK at Best Buy in January (barely 5 months ago!), and the screen just died - Best Buy says to talk to Barnes and Noble and today Barnes and Noble customer service said to talk to Best Buy! They won't do anything for us because we bought it at Best Buy - way to stand by your product!!! Be warned!

outlet denied
First off they never pick up their phones. Ive called numerousness times to check if they have a book. Not once have I spoke to another human being... Nevertheless, I come here to study, and their are 2 outlets that are not working. when i asked for Service they tell me " we don't usually let our customers use our outlets. Mind you there is sign that says, "FREE WI- fi" and everyone at a table has a laptop. I've Never been so upset. If they had a sign in the sitting read said "no outlets available, I WOULD HAVE GONE SOMEWHERE ELSE. This used to be my favorite place to unwind. Now my friends and are really starting to resent this place.

Rude cafe workers
I have never been in a store to buy coffee where they have hired such rude inconsiderate girls. Who said blonda have all the fun? These two girls are the rudest most sourfaced people in the world. And one is the manager of the cafe. I use to go in everyday and if either one is working I wont go in. Made numerous complaints to the store but it seems the manager doesn't really care. So if you go in and there is a tall blond or a short one with a ring in her nose don't order. Not only that it is completely obvious their co workers despise them. Get rid of them and hire some nice people. Im done with the rude girls and I should just name them..elyse and jaqueline.
