Fingerhut customers are primarily frustrated by the company's transition from Advantage to Fetti accounts, which created unexpected dual accounts and negatively impacted credit scores without proper notification. Additional major issues include payment processing errors with delayed refunds, extremely poor customer service with undertrained representatives, and concerns about excessive interest rates that prevent balances from decreasing despite regular payments.

00 line of credit. Read all terms of credit wasn't HAPPY with your high rate of interest but I agreed. Was looking at your products, everything I looked at was anywhere between twenty to three hundred dollars higher priced than any other online companies for same type's of products .

Fingerhut has been around 40 yrs plus , longer than most online service's out there. Why are you so high priced?? 00 ? Over a week and a half ago , I was supposed to get a letter in the mail about my line of credit ....

never received the letter of contract.... could not contact your contact phone # to discuss this matter until yesterday finally ! I talked to Chris your rep. Her talked over me and would not send me a confirmation on me cancelling my line of credit argued with me on talking to a supervisor.…

Less than a 1. My first experience was the worst. I purchased a ring engraved for my husband that faded two weeks after receiving. No shipping return label included.

Also purchased a bridal silver set where after a week the silver begin to chip on the side again no return labels. I received both items at different times returned them to the address on the return forms these items came back contacted customer service and was advised to go online for labels but was not able to bc did not have a printer to print the labels.

These items were returned 5 times after sending the last time the items have not been returned back. I had spoke with customer service several times concerning this issue and they never helped or showed any empathy to my experience.

After this my credit is shot. I will…

Fingerhut has allowed an insurance company to charge premiums to my Fingerhut account without my consent therefore creating a balance without my knowledge and reporting to the credit bureaus of my being late for payments when I should have a zero balance. I called your customer service and asked for the name and phone number of the insurance company that is doing this and they refused to give me this information. I was put on hold for over 30 minutes total and still did not get the information requested. I was told that I have a balance of $61.08. This is not accurate. I should have a zero balance.

Your app took more than I was going to send. I at first hit too many zeros, and DELETED all of them to start over. I hit minimum payment, and they took my balance! I have to buy my groceries!

I have to pay other bills! I have to fix my mom's truck! I can't wait 3 business days to be credited back. When I asked to be forwarded to the department that would credit it back, she claimed she couldn't.

When I asked for a manager, she claimed none was available! I work customer service! I know when someone is lying to a caller to get her to hang up! Your App messed up! and I have to pay for it!

You have the worst, most Unhelpful Customer service dept I have ever experienced! And I want satisfaction! I shouldn't have to pay for a glitch in an ap!

I purchased an Acer Aspire computer for my husband who needed one to help with our fledgling business as well as to play games on. The computer I purchased was advertised by you as being a gaming computer but when my husband tried to play a game on it couldn't run it.

The game in question was almost 10 years old! I called the customer service line and was told the quarantee I purchased wasn't in effect yet and to contact Acer. Upon contacting them, I was informed that this was NOT a gaming computer at all.

I called Customer Service back and told them this. I requested that you take this computer back (which is hardly used) and credit my account as I would use the credit to purchase something else. The supervisor refused to take it back saying we have had it too long and that it was…

I ordered 2 items for Christmas. I get paid on the 3rd of each month. I kept making double payments and you still reported that I was late and had the nerve to charge me a 14 dollar late charge.

I can never talk to anyone on the phone because you hire nothing but orientials that can't even speak English. I am beyond frustrated with your company. I paid off my account in LESS than 3 months. How dare you accuse me of paying late. I demand an apology.

I know I am part of the fresh start payment, over the last few months I have paid more than my monthly payment, I got sick a few weeks ago and did not have the money to pay before my payment was due in march, my payday is 3 days after my march payment was due, I tried explain about my payday when I called on march 4, also I begged and

pleaded to borrow money from a family member and tried to go ahead and make the payment only to be told my card was expired even though the expiration date on the card is 08/2023 so the payment did not go through so I have to wait till the 8th of march and now I'm being told I have to start all over again on the fresh start program, no credit to me on the fact that I had been paying more than the min payment due each month.

I did not plan on getting sick…

My account paid in off June 2018.

However you have continued to charge late fees, the charge of 66 dollars was for insurance policy that was cancelled September 2018, insurance company said they do not inform fingerhut of this. I have inform you of this sent September but bill anyway, late fees sent July account close continues to this date.

Will not pay a bill when I owe fingerhut nothing.

I ordered two bracelets from Fingerhut. When UPS delivered my package only one bracelet was inside the package (I work from home so I was able to get the package). However, when I called Fingerhut and inquired on my order, I was advised to complete an affidavit form. The case was supposed to be investigated. I received an email back from the investigation department advising the case was closed and I need to submit a report with my police department if I disagree with the findings. The investigate was verifying that the package was delivered by UPS. Duh, I told the representative I've received the package (SMH). So much for an investigation. However, in the meantime, my account still reflect the item I didn't receive.

There is a lot wrong with this situation. 1. I didn't get what I…

Desiring to order three toys for a four year old, I contacted Fingerhut customer service to ask a question. After navigating my way through their contorted automated system, which, by the way, has never accepted my “prompted” last four social or 10 digit phone number ever since I became a customer, I spoke to the first of four actual humans.

Three additional calls later, as well as 52 minutes later, I was no closer to placing my order than when I started. Some of the “lowlights” include one agent telling me that there was a Black Friday discount for shipping if ordering online. That was a lie.

The second agent said that there was a Thanksgiving Day promo, but only for that day. That makes total sense, since everyone knows it has always been called Black Thursday! 00 to help out with the…

I am submitting this complaint because I placed an order on October 23, 2018 for some earbuds. I had intended to order the earbuds along with a $350 scanner but the scanner was unavailable so I could only order the earbuds.

I was told that the order would go out on November 2 so I was constantly checking my mail awaiting my order. I decided to phone Fingerhut to check on the order and was informed that my account was CLOSED BECAUSE THE ORDER WAS NOT AVAILABLE which is not my fault.

I did not wish to lose my account with Fingerhut and do not understand the reason that my account was IMMEDIATELY CLOSED being that I showed interest in KEEPING ACCOUNT OPEN. I feel that my account was WRONGFULLY CLOSED and I was not afforded the opportunity to order a replacement item before you closed my…

Last year I opened a Fresh Start account which I proudly paid on time until my last $10 payment. I had to be rushed to the hospital around that time and ended up being admitted for almost 2 months. At age 32 I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer.

A year & half ago it came back with a vengeance. Then a few days ago I received an email from Fingerhut saying I’d have to start all over again with the low credit limit. So I called them today to explain the situation and beg to “graduate” up 1 level so I could make this Xmas the best I could knowing it could be my last.

I just wanted it to be as memorable & unforgettable for my son. I spoke with 2 different reps yet they both denied me because of that $10 dollars (which I did pay off). Making that call was truly humiliating (I was…

I placed an order back in January. I never got the item and as soon as I noticed the item being delivered (never at my house) I notified fingerhut that I never got the item. I sent an affidavit and did everything I was supposed to do on my end.

Its been six months and the credit has not been refunded to my account. To my surprise I called and they basically said they will not be refunded the amount because its been so long and there is nothing they can do.

It is unacceptable because I did my part and called to notified them of the situation, I am not sure what they were expecting from me but their customer service is the worst not being able to provide me with a solution but just saying they are "sorry" they can't do anything for me.

Never again buying anything from this people again.

Ordered a 3 piece occassional table set back on 9-03-18. Was suppossed to be delivered on 9-12-18. Hasn't even left the shipper yet, nor been picked up by UPS. Called today to cancel the order and was told they can't since the item is in shipment status and due to be delivered even though it hasn't left the warehouse.

Now customer service is blaming the delay on Hurricane Florence which only made landfall this morning and is nowhere near to their shipment centers. Love being lied to right in my face. Won't cancel the order and won't cancel the Fingerhut account.

After working with a debt consolidation company on my behalf finger decided that they no longer wanted to work with them so that opted out when I called & asked why they said it was due to 2 missed payments which I can prove is untrue & they also accepted payment from the debt consolidation company for 5 more months after these supposedly missed payments after being on the phone with them for 90 minute I was told I did not qualify for any of their programs i never received any notification from them I found out about their withdrawal from the debt consolidation through the debt consolidation company then

fingerhut sent me the first bill with a late payment on it I feel that they are trying to bully me into paying more then what they agreed to with the debt consolidation company is there…

00. 00. I'm no rocket science but isn't something wrong with this picture? 00 cheaper. I enjoy being a Fingerhut acct holder but your doing a great injustice to me as well as others who l'm sure would prefer providing their patronage with your company.

Bottom line, this is highway robbery, and if Fingerhut can be competitive and fair with pricing then these types of products need to be removed from your inventory. I can tell you this, go back and see how many of these you've sold in the last year, I'm this type of consumer, EXAMPLE: If my saw was out of service on a major job, I wouldn't purchase this saw with you just because I have an acct and
