No way to address account fraud!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I suspected account fraud as a NOOK was registered to my e-mail, from an automated confirmation I received. I did not purchase or register a NOOK.

I tried to log into my B&N account and the website said there was no registered e-mail address for me, despite having ordered from B&N before. I called a local store to see if they could access my B&N account. They could not. A call to customer service had a greater than 60 minute wait time!

The live chat didn't work.

When I decided to send an e-mail to B&N, I didn't even get a confirmation e-mail that my message/concern had been received. I think this is the most inept customer service I've EVER experienced.

I couldn't cancel a shipping that was going to happen in1 MONTH

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
It is unbelievable. I bought because they advised it would arrive in 3-6 days. It never arrived after 1 week. I called, they told me that It would arrive in 3 more weeks. I asked to cancel. They told me that It wold be canceled. So I bought the books from Amazon and they arrived on the next day. Now this horrible company charged me for the books and I am not even available to reive on the date they will be sending it. I will probably lose my job and q lot of money because they do not know how to run their business.

It wasn't a complaint. It was a request for help. The problem was a simple fix. 10 min on the phone and it was fixed. No fuss no muss.

Self publishing bn press ignoring error

Barnes And Noble - Self publishing bn press ignoring error
Barnes And Noble - Self publishing bn press ignoring error - Image 2

I'm an author, I receive government benefits and so I cannot fill out a W9. SSI recipients are not required to fill out W9's or file taxes.

For this reason B&N continues to put a hold on my sales account. They refuse to fix it and will not give contact numbers.

I've contacted the B&N press through email about this in the past and recently. They still won't remove the hold.

Pros:
  • Pros easy self publish cons no real contact for errors
Cons:
  • No reasonable solutions

Preferred solution: Better contact for resolutions

Your SSI is separate from any income you receive from self publishing. If you receive income from your self publishing you will owe taxes on that income.

First, that doesn't make sense. Secondly, the first time I spoke to someone at B&N they made it clear that they thought SSI recipients did taxes and they fixed the problem.

That's why, had you read the entire comment correctly, you would know they removed the holding the first time more than a year ago due to this error. I don't like it when people who think they know it all try to add their 2cents when they are guessing and don't know what information was already discussed between both parties already or they just truly don't know what they are talking about or the whole situation in its entirety and want to be acknowledged because no one else acknowledges them.

No. Your guess was not the issue.

Refused service in store!!

Shopping in store, Marlton NJ, when they announced it was closing. I took my items up to check out immediately A very rude & abrupt young woman refused to help me checkout! She said, were closed! She closed the register EARLY while we were shopping & Refused to reopen it so I could make my purchases!!
View full review

Preferred solution: Ability to shop during published hours of operation & treated with respect as a customer! The young woman who rudely refused to help me should be taught about customer service. She needs to understand that w/o customers this is no revenue or job for her!

Barnes and Noble Vendor Verification

Hi,*for a couple of days now I haven't been able to get my vendor account verification on Barnes and Noble even though all of my banking and tax info is correct. I keep getting the following info:*We were unable to approve your vendor account because of a mismatch with your tax and bank information.Please enter the information again and resubmit for verification.

After I contacted support they told me the following:*We apologize that we were unable to approve your application, as it did not pass our vetting processes.* *We apologize that we cannot provide further information.

After I had repeatedly asked for more information as I do not know what the problem is they stopped answering my emails. I have so much stuff written down, covers drawn and everything combined into, what I think to be, quality books but for some reason B&N keeps rejecting my vendor requests even though I provide completely correct and legal information.

Please help as I do not know what the problem is, the support staff member refuses to help as well and I do not know what to do.

The non English speaking customer service representative who helped me, did not help me and I couldn't understand her. she was talking over me when I would try to tell her what was going on with my nook. she wouldn't listen and eventually she decided that she was tired of helping me so she told me to call back between such and such hours during the week. thank you so much. I really appreciate the non help your non English speaking representative gave me. *** Customer Indeed

Inappropriate charge

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Years ago I had a Barnes & Noble annual membership. This was automatically renewed last year and again in the past few days. As I explained to one of your customer service folks last year, I do not want to continue the membership and it has not been used. CANCEL THE MEMBERSHIP AND THE AUTOMATIC RENEWAL. This request made last year clearly has failed. Please cancel the membership now.
