Good afternoon,
I visited one of your stores at Macy's in Herald Square on Thursday. I've been there many times and have consistently been disappointed. The greeting upon arrival was lacking, and the gentleman who took my order seemed disinterested and unhappy. He struggled to get my order correct and couldn't provide good descriptions of the new flavors. I was denied a taste and when inquiring about specials, I was met with a quick and dismissive response. Even after making a purchase, asking for a cup of coffee felt like an inconvenience to him. I usually brush off these experiences, but after repeated disappointing visits, I felt compelled to share my feedback. Spending over $[redacted] on coffee should come with friendly service. This location has been consistently poor, and my coworkers and I no longer look forward to visiting. We hope for improved training on customer service and product knowledge. I have experienced dissatisfaction over my last 10 visits and hope for a change.
Thank you.

As Nespresso customers for over 5 years, my wife and I, along with our daughters, reached Ambassador level after 5 years. Recently, my wife, who has High Blood Pressure, tried switching to decaf. When she bought 5 Volluto and 5 Vollutto last week, we wanted to exchange the unopened Volluto for decaf at the Edinburgh shop. Despite our loyalty and the inconvenience of a 40-50 mile round trip, the shop refused the exchange. Yet, local supermarkets sell compatible capsules, which would be more convenient. Other stores allow returns in good condition, so why not Nespresso? It seems easier to buy from supermarkets now. Our details are Docherty, [redacted] KY11 9NQ. - Pat D.

Subject: Disappointing Experience with Nespresso Customer Service
Dear Nespresso Customer Service,
I am writing to express my disappointment with the recent promotion mishap I encountered. Despite receiving an email this morning with a code for a free cup and box of chocolates upon ordering 14 sleeves, I was informed when applying the code that it was no longer valid. The customer service representative I spoke to was unhelpful, insisting the promotion had expired. Even after requesting to speak with a supervisor to address the issue, I was only offered alternative promotions that I had clearly expressed disinterest in.
This incident is unfortunately not an isolated one, as I have faced similar issues with previous orders. The lack of respect and transparency in handling promotions leaves me feeling dissatisfied as a customer. If promotions cannot be honored, it would be preferable not to offer them at all rather than retracting them after enticing customers with such offers.
I mentioned to your representative my intention to explore other options for purchasing my coffee capsules if this matter remains unresolved.
Sincerely,
Sylvie G.

I have been a loyal customer of Nepreso for years, with club number [redacted]. My current machine, purchased in [redacted], is the fourth one directly from Nepresso, type EN520B, with serial number [redacted]09Q. I have faced issues with descaling the machine. Previously, Nepresso's representatives would transfer me to the workshop to speak with engineers like Ian, Hazen, Colin, and Shaft who provided excellent advice over the phone. However, during my recent call on 4/11/19, the coffee expert claimed there was no workshop to speak with and no manager available to assist me. Their solution to buy a new Lattissima Touch machine at £[redacted] seemed overpriced compared to other retailers like John Lewis offering it for £[redacted] to £[redacted]. As a loyal club member, I expected a discount on a new purchase, but the expert could not provide one. I am disappointed by this experience and seek clarification regarding the workshop's availability, discounts, and the unavailability of a manager to address my concerns. I hope to receive a prompt response to restore my trust in Nepresso. Dr. Alan Santaub.

I have been attempting to purchase a gift card for my son for almost a month now. Unfortunately, they have been consistently out of stock, which is quite frustrating. I believe a company of this size should have better inventory management for gift cards. Despite reaching out to customer service multiple times, I have not received a clear answer on when they will be available again. It is disappointing that neither the online store nor the physical boutiques have them in stock. I have been a loyal customer for many years, and I am finding this situation to be very perplexing. It's concerning why the stores or boutiques do not carry them and how they can be out of stock, especially during this time of year.

I recently purchased a NESPRESSO Vertuo Plus from the Debenhams store in Metrocentre, Gateshead, at half price. The machine works perfectly. However, I am facing challenges trying to register the product due to uncertainty about how to email a copy of the store receipt. After contacting a representative at [redacted] [redacted] [redacted], I was given the email address of the promotions department ([redacted]). If registering my product remains this complicated, I may have to return the machine to Debenhams along with my feedback.

I recently purchased a NESPRESSO Virtuo Plus at a discount from Debenhams in Metrocentre, Gateshead. The machine works fine, but I am struggling to register it because I am unsure how to email a copy of the receipt. I called [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] and spoke to a representative who provided me with an email address for the Promotions Department ([redacted]). However, contacting this email address has not been successful as it seems unresponsive. If I can't find a simpler way to register the machine, I might have to return it to Debenhams.

Hello '[redacted]',
I am a long-time Nespresso customer expressing my dissatisfaction with the recent service experience I encountered in my country. I appreciate your exceptional branding and marketing efforts, which match the wonderful coffee you offer.
I am disappointed that an email I sent on Saturday, the 25th of July, remains unanswered up to today, Monday at 4:00 p.m. I followed up on this matter and requested to escalate it to a supervisor, manager, or director, but unfortunately, I did not receive a response. Instead, I was promised a callback from Stuart Brown, which I am still awaiting.
Despite this, I have proceeded to place an online order (Order number [redacted]77). However, I feel that loyal customers like myself should not face challenges when trying to enjoy your products. I believe that customers who support great brands like Nespresso should always receive exceptional service.
I hope this matter can be duly addressed to ensure that customers continue to enjoy your products and services without any frustrations.
Kind regards, Kevin McKey

I had a frustrating experience trying to get my Nespresso capsules. Firstly, at a UniMart, the clerk initially couldn't locate my order until I provided my confirmation number. Then, I attempted to pick up my order at Advanced Auto Parts, which turned out to be even worse. The clerk wouldn't give me the coffee as it was under my husband's name, not mine, despite us sharing the same last name and address. I had to escalate the situation to the supervisor to finally receive my order. This experience left me disappointed and frustrated. I am considering switching to other brands like Peet’s that offer direct delivery to avoid such hassles in the future. Nespresso, this current system of pick up locations is not convenient and needs improvement.

I contacted customer service regarding this issue, but they only sent the missing and damaged coffee. I am very unsettled and require further assistance.
On November 25, [redacted], I placed an order for a machine and coffee. The machine arrived on November 30, [redacted], and the coffee arrived on December 2, [redacted]. Upon receiving the box, I was surprised by its weight, especially for just 50 capsules.
Inside, I found that 20 coffee capsules were missing, 10 were incorrect for my machine, and there were random items such as a dirty vacuum nozzle, duct tape, and metal wire. These items were dirty with dust, grime, and a mysterious white substance in the nozzle.
Initially finding it amusing, my reaction turned serious as I started experiencing allergies with swelling, redness, and itchiness. I called customer service, who is sending replacement coffee, leaving me without coffee for a few days. This experience has dampened my excitement over my Nespresso machine. I am concerned about future orders’ safety and hope this is an isolated incident. I am still unsettled and hope for a resolution and acknowledgment of the inconvenience.
Thank you.

I encountered issues while placing my online order. The address field had problems when selecting UPS delivery, so I left it blank hoping it would be delivered to the listed address. Although I used the "espresso" promo code, I missed applying "coaster20" for additional goodies as it stated if ordered by 12/13, which I did. The new yellow flavors and big white cups I wanted were sold out. I hope to receive the bigger cups and have the "coaster20" promo code applied to my purchase. Despite encountering errors and having to re-enter information multiple times, I managed to proceed with the order. I also expected to receive 12 coffee samples for ordering [redacted] sleeves. I appreciate your assistance in ensuring my requests are fulfilled. I am unable to attach photos, so please contact me via email for further details. Thank you for your help and understanding.

Subject: Frustration with Customer Service and Machine Issues
Hello,
I wanted to share my recent experience with your customer service regarding my Vertuo coffee machine. I have encountered multiple challenges trying to reach your technical department over the phone. I spent a significant amount of time on various occasions, including holding for [redacted] minutes on Day 1 and a lengthy [redacted] minutes on Day 2 without any response. After several more unsuccessful attempts, I finally connected with a helpful lady who was unable to resolve the problem with my machine and now I am waiting to send it back for inspection.
I recently had to return my Vertuo machine for repairs, and my niece received a Vertuo Plus Deluxe Round Head machine as a replacement without extra costs. I am now inquiring if it would be possible for me to also receive a similar model considering the issues I have had with my two Vertuo machines. I am a regular buyer of your pods but have been unable to enjoy them due to the intermittent functioning of my current machine.
My membership number is [redacted], and my last order was placed on January 13, [redacted], totaling CAD$[redacted].70. I am eager to receive the return package for my coffee machine and kindly request your consideration for an exchange.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Regards,
A. Lidven

I recently bought a Nespresso machine from Currys, expecting to receive 50 free capsules as advertised. However, I found only 12 capsules inside. When I contacted Currys about this, they directed me to Nespresso for assistance. Unfortunately, after spending hours on the phone trying to resolve the issue, I have not made any progress. I am now planning to escalate the matter if it is not resolved promptly. The Nespresso website is not user-friendly, as it leads to a dead end when trying to find help. I intend to express my dissatisfaction with their site layout. If needed, I will also return to Currys since they are the ones responsible for supplying the product to customers.

On August 11, [redacted], I purchased a coffee maker for 1 euro at the Nespresso store on Heiligeweg in Amsterdam as part of a promotion. The deal involved monthly withdrawals of 40 euros from my account for 12 months to use as coffee credit. Being a customer for over 25 years, I trusted the salesman and made the first payment in the store using a debit card. Upon suggesting I download the app to track my credit and pay with a credit card for convenience, I returned the next day to provide my credit card details. However, I started receiving payment reminders and encountered issues updating my information on the website. My account shows a number that isn't mine, and the customer service hotline and website keep redirecting me to each other. Despite attempts via WhatsApp and in-store help being unavailable due to website malfunctions, I can't find a way to update my credit card information. This situation is frustrating, and a simple phone call should resolve it.
